Chapter 1218 Ji Yuan the Alliance Leader (1)
Ji Yuan was actually surprised that he had been recalled by Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and the others to his official seat so quickly as the ceremony had not started yet.
He was hoping to find some of his brothers from his poorer region at the lower hall's steps.
Ling Feiyue reminded him, "Everyone is waiting to talk to you. Do you have to wait until the very last minute?"
Then she quietly looked at the direction of the Celestial Orthodox Sect as she whispered to him, "Matriarch Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin are all over there. Don't you want to say a word to them?"
Ji Yuan saw that both Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were dressed beautiful in golden celestium silk dress just like many of his maidens.
Zhao Songjin looked astonishingly beautiful and she kept looking at him.
Their eyes had suddenly locked when Ji Yuan had secretly looked in her direction.
Ji Yuan muttered to Ling Feiyue, "You know. I don't see anyone of you wearing such high level profound robes when you are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but you are all wearing your best armor now. This is a little ridiculous…"
Ling Feiyue chucked softly as she interrupted him, "Did you just got your ego bruised by your pathetic looking robe just now?"
Ji Yuan: …
Damn. How did she know?
All of a sudden, Xue Qianxue and Sword Saintess Yuluo had both put on a beautiful celestium black and gold robe on him as they giggled together.
Ji Yuan was startled, "This is for me? Isn't this erm… a saint-step mystic celestium robe?"
Saint-step mystic celestium robe is extremely rare and it can even bankrupt a cultivation holy land in order to obtain one.
Sword Saintess Yuluo, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and many of the maidens were all laughing jovially as they nodded.
Feng Minyue smiled as she looked at Shui Xisi, "Actually this is from my Sister Saintess Fan Yuqing. It is a gift to you from her and Lu Qingyun."
Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "They sure are rich."
Shui Xisi laughed, "Compared to the Nine Celestial Fraternity, our Desolate Celestial Fraternity is extremely poor. Why do you think our celestial fraternity is called the Desolate Celestial Fraternity? Their Nine Celestial Fraternity is directly under the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm and is the richest celestial fraternity in the entire Celestial Realm."
The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu chuckled, "Although that is the case but we have Ji Yuan in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."
Like Feng Minyue, she was also from the Nine Celestial Fraternity.
When she had said that, there were many jovial laughter.
Yun Chi laughed too as she cheekily said, "And we also have the Great Demon God in this Desolate Celestial Fraternity too as the desolate profound energies here are stronger here than the other celestial fraternities."
Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard her.
He muttered weakly, "Is this… supposed to be a comfort for me?"
Then he quickly turned to ask Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue, "Where are my Brother Lu Qingyun and your Sister-Saintess Fan Yuqing now?"
Shui Xisi sighed softly, "My Sister Yuqing felt guilty that she was unable to help you in a timely manner and you had already dispatched of the Great Demon God. Therefore, she had decided to return to the Nine Celestial Fraternity."
Feng Minyue said weakly, "She got bored already."
Then she said in a low voice, "She says that you have inspired her to try to dominate the Nine Celestial Fraternity again and she is now trying again."
Ji Yuan's jaws nearly dropped when he had heard her but he quickly said weakly, "Well, I wish her good luck then. Hope she is able to succeed this time."
He looked a little disappointed that he was unable to see them today.
"Did Brother Lu Qingyun have anything to say to me?"
Shui Xisi saw his disappointment and immediately whispered to the other maidens, "Tsk, tsk. He is just asking because he hopes that Lu Qingyun can concoct a profound pill for him to restore his beard."
Ji Yuan: …
Do you have to tell the whole world about this?
Shui Xisi then giggled to Ji Yuan, "He says you look perfectly alright without a beard and you don't need his miraculous profound pill for that."
Ji Yuan: …
He cursed softly to himself: Damn. After I have helped Brother Lu Qingyun to find his Maiden Leng Qiuyue in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he didn't even bother to return me a favor…"
Of course, he remembered that Lu Qingyun had prevented the Asura Cannons from being used by the Evil Cultivation Palace and this had helped him tremendously. But he still could not help but to mutter a soft curse as he had placed his last hope of regaining his beard on Lu Qingyun who is a 7th realm alchemist.
Shui Xisi smiled as she added, "Oh. By the way. Number 3 isn't dead yet. My Sister Yuqing had saved her and she is taking her to the Nine Celestial Fraternity to fulfil her goal of dominating the Nine Celestial Fraternity."
Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Well, I hope that she don't get bored halfway though."
"Ji Yuan!!! Ji Yuan!!!" A handsome man in a beautiful white and purple heavy robe was suddenly making his way to Ji Yuan."
He was naturally Shen Qin and he was shouting to the cultivators that were stopping him from approaching Ji Yuan, "Savior Ji Yuan is my brother. I mean Alliance Leader Ji Yuan is my brother!"
Then he was also gasping with shock, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, you are also here. And you are so beautiful today…"
He had suddenly spotted Ding Xiaoxiao who was sitting next to Yun Chi and she was dressed in a feathery celestium dress that caused her to look extremely heavenly.
Ji Yuan called out to Shen Qin, "Hahaha, it is my Brother Shen Qin!"
Shen Qin laughed heartily as he quickly greeted her but his eyes were already looking at Ding Xiaoxiao.
Then he chuckled to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, it seems that Maiden Xiaoxiao is also here. She has a gold token too?"
Ji Yuan patted Shen Qin on his shoulder as he said solemnly, "Maiden Xiaoxiao is my maiden now. Therefore, it isn't surprising that she is able to sit with us here."
Shen Qin was also patting Ji Yuan on his shoulder as he grinned, "I know. You are only pretending to be engaged to her so as to weed out the rest of the evil cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Palace. This is too big a sacrifice for you. But do me a favor alright? Don't hurt Maiden Xiaoxiao and don't give her a hard time too."
Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly as he tried to think of ways to cover up his lies.
Luckily for him, he spotted Ling Tianshui arriving with her patriarch Chen Yi as they arrived. And he quickly excused himself with Ling Feiyue as he went to greet the continency from the Blue Spirit Moon Sect.
They had arrived together with Mo Ming, Mo Bei and the others from the continency of the Mo Clan.
Or rather, they had a long chat before coming to this place.
Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue quickly greeted their elders and seniors.
Patriarch Chen Yi laughed as he said to Ji Yuan, "Today our Dark Lord Ji Yuan is going to do our Blue Spirits Moon Sect proud by become the Alliance Leader!"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially as he greeted Patriarch Chen Yi and he winked at Ling Tianshui who was also looking coyly at him.
Mo Bei laughed as he asked Ji Yuan by interrupting his moments with the Blue Spirits Moon Sect, "Little rascal, have you prepared your speech already?"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "Hahaha. I have been preparing for more than a week for my awesome speech."
"Well, what are you going to say to everyone then?" Mo Bei asked him curiously.
Ji Yuan frowned, "Senior. You have been asking me for a week now. I prefer to keep the details of my speech a secret until it is time for me to address everyone."
Mo Bei: …
Everyone: …
Mo Bei weakly said to him, "Don't give us a heart attack then. You know that I'm only going to give you some advice to make your speech a little better."
Ji Yuan laughed as he patted Mo Bei on his shoulder, "No need, senior. I have prepared a surprise for you with my speech. Hahaha…"
Mo Bei: …
He weakly said, "Don't screw me…"
All of a sudden Ji Yuan had spotted the continency of the Mystic Profound Pavilion and the Emperor Hall Sect that was being led by Jin Yuyan, Ji Hao and Li Ye that had just arrived through another entrance at the upper steps.
Ji Hao quickly greeted Ji Yuan excitingly, "Father! I am so proud of you. You are a true hero…"
All of a sudden he had broken into a cold sweat as his golden eyes caught Ding Xiaoxiao who was sitting at a corner.
He began to stammer, "Father, I have finally found the maiden that had injured me…"
Ji Yuan began to look sheepishly when he saw that Ji Hao was staring at Ding Xiaoxiao and he quickly said to him, "That is only a friendly spar. You are a golden celestial so you won't die so easily. Also, I have asked her to train you up. Hahaha…"
Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi who had walked forward to greet Ji Hao and the elders of the Emperor Hall Sect were both shaking their heads sheepishly at Ji Yuan's lies.
Ji Hao had a sudden realization, "Alas. It is merely to train me up. I get it now."
Ji Yuan laughed weakly as he said to himself: Actually, you don't get it. My life is currently very messy now.
Then he saw that the continency from the Burning Heavens Pavilion had also arrived; he didn't recognize any of them as they had a change of leadership and Ji Yuan had in the past killed their Elder the Saint Wu Heng and several of their cultivators.
The Burning Heavens Pavilion is also one of the 7 major orthodox cultivation sect and they had the gold token to sit at the gold seats.
Great Saint Jian Kang from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor had suddenly emerged from the other entrance of the inner hall with his continency and he was laughing jovially as he walked to greet Ji Yuan, "My son-in-law Ji Yuan! Congratulations on becoming the Alliance Leader!"
When he had come, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Ji Hao immediately greeted him.
"Father!"
"Grandfather!"
Great Saint Jian Kang laughed, "My daughter. My grandson. How are you all?"
But before he had obtained an answer from them, he was already looking at Ji Yuan and was patting him, "You know, Son-in-Law Ji Yuan. I've always believed in you! Now that you are going to be the Alliance Leader, don't forget my Profound Heaven Manor!"
Ji Yuan: …
Have you forgotten how you had pursued me to kill me in the past?
And had even separated me from my Yuxian? (Sword Saintess Yuluo).
But of course, Ji Yuan did not say that aloud and he was quick to forgive this slight since he is still alive.
In the cultivation stories, the MCs will often revenge in a vengeful way by massacring everyone from the same cultivation sect or clan for this slight.
But not Ji Yuan if there is no real harm that is being caused to him.
He was someone that could sit down with his enemies after a good fight and then suddenly become brothers with them.
Of course, not all enemies are repentant such as Jin Yilong even after Ji Yuan had repeatedly spared his life.
Mo Bei laughed as he interrupted Ji Yuan and Great Saint Jian Kang, "The opening ceremony is about to start! And everyone is already here! Ji Yuan, are you ready for your greatest moment?"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "Of course! I am really excited and looking forward to this!"
