The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 543 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (13)

The Smiling Divine Maiden repeated, "He is not my father!"

Ji Yuan was startled, "He is not your father?"

Then he had quickly turned to his old master, "Old man, she isn't your daughter?"

He paused for a while before he said solemnly, "She is really my senior protégé sister? Why do you want to kill her?"

Then he turned to ask the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was upset, "If he wants to kill you, why didn't you fight him back? Do you need me to beat him up for you?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man immediately said coldly at the same time, "This is our family business and none of your business!"

Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said weakly, "Both of you are family alright..."

The short old man had angrily turned to Ji Yuan to say, "She is one of the ring leaders of this place. Do you know how many people had died because of her and is going to die because of her? So do you think that she deserves to die or not?" 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "So what? You are her father and you want her dead? You are not a good father."

The short old man snorted coldly, "She is a sword saintess and she has made an oath that the next time that I have caught her, is also the day of her execution. That is the reason why I have spared her that day!"

The Smiling Divine Maiden said quietly, "Indeed! That day when you had come looking for me in this wonderland, you had indeed said so and I have indeed promise you!"

The short old man hummed, "Sword Saintess Chu Lixue is indeed a maiden of her words! So prepare to die..."

Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted him, "I say old man, you are indeed not her father! Because i don't believe that you can give birth to such a peerless maiden. Moreover you want her dead as well."

The short old man stared blankly at Ji Yuan before he said coldly, "Little rascal, you are so right. She is indeed not my real daughter."

Ji Yuan stared at his old master, "What did you just say? I was only kidding just now..."

Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue lowered her glances to interrupt, "He is indeed not my real father..."

"Her mother is my concubine," Interrupted the short old man. "As for her real father, her mother has never told me or her, not even when she is no longer around. But I had raised her nevertheless."

The Smiling Divine Maiden displayed a hurted look, "When have you ever treated me as your real daughter? Have you forgotten all the abuses that you had ever given me? And you have never even taught me your secret profound sword arts. Can you even consider yourself to be my father? Even my clan name is taken from my mother's side and not yours!"

The short old man hummed angrily, "If I don't train you hard, can you even be a sword saintess? As for your clan name, how many times must I tell you that this is the wish of your dying mother!"

The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed back, "Hmph! I don't believe!" f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂

"And that is why you have joined this wonderland to commit evil? You can even join the side of these evil gods?!" The short old man angrily rebuked her.

Ji Yuan had suddenly cut in as he said to both, "I must say my senior protégé sister is right. My old man's training is truly inhumane. I can be a witness. As for why she isn't taking your clan name, it is all your fault old man..."

"Why don't you just shutup, Ji Yuan?" The short old man had suddenly interrupted him. "Whose side are you on?"

Ji Yuan lamely replied, "Of course I am on your side old man. I haven't reproached my senior protégé sister yet for joining this evil wonderland yet..."

"Why don't you just keep quiet, Ji Yuan?" The Smiling Divine Maiden had interrupted him. "This is not your business."

Ji Yuan immediately said firmly as he looked at her captivating eyes, "Do you expect me to allow my senior protégé sister to be killed by my old man just like this?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden: ...

Then Ji Yuan continued firmly, "You may be my only senior protégé sister here and if you are not around anymore, I am going to miss your smiles and where can I find you if you are no longer anymore?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden looked up to him with bleary eyes, "Ji Yuan..."

Ji Yuan smiled, "Besides, a peerless maiden like you shouldn't cry at all."

The Smiling Divine Maiden muttered softly, "An oath is an oath. Since he has caught up with me in this place then this is just my fate..."

"Fate can be changed." Ji Yuan said firmly as he had suddenly brandished out his saint-step divine sword, "Then why not let me change your fate for you by defeating this old man? What do you say?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden looked at Ji Yuan with a confused look, "You are courting your own death..."

The Lovely Empress who had been keeping quiet all this while had suddenly spoken, "To be fair, it is all this old freak fault."

The short old man stared coldly at the Lovely Empress, "Young lass, what did you say?!"

The Lovely Empress began to hide behind Ji Yuan, "Of course I will be supporting my sister. Are you expecting for me to erm... support you?"

The short old man stared at her, "Then what the heck is the 'to be fair thing' that you have just said?!"

The Lovely Empress giggled, "This is my fairest opinion. Do you really think that I will let you kill my sister without a fight to the death?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden was gasping softly, "Sister..."

Ji Yuan was also saying, "Of course I will also be supporting my senior protégé sister as well."

The short old man stared angrily at Ji Yuan, "Little rascal! Are you really going to fight your old man here? Are you going to be a traitor? Are you going to betray the righteousness of the sword saint code of honor? Or are you falling with her evil looks?"

Ji Yuan answered nonchalantly, "Old man, you can insult my honor but you can't insult my senior protégé sister's honor. So what if she is wrong? Right or wrong, let our swords decide for us!"

The short old man growled angrily, "Ji Yuan, then don't blame your old man when you are in your grave! I won't go easy on you!"

Ji Yuan laughed, "When have you ever go easy on me?"
