Chapter 420 Have You Forgotten About The Secret Plan?
Ji Yuan laughed as he said to the maidens, "Senior Mo Bei says that there is a place somewhere where cultivators trade their profound treasures. Maybe we ought to pay that place a visit?"
Ling Feiyue asked him curiously, "Didn't we hear you telling Senior Mo Bei that you have no use for more profound treasures?"
All the other maidens were all nodding.
Yu Jingjing added with a perplexed look, "I have heard it loud and clear."
Ji Yuan explained with a soft chuckle, "I just don't want Senior Mo Bei to think that I am someone that will lust after profound treasures so I am just trying to keep up a good image in front of him. Haha."
Little Princess nodded, "This sounds reasonable."
Then she returned a wry smile, "But where is your golden robe? You are wearing it when you enter the trial but it is nowhere to be seen now."
Ji Yuan was stunned; indeed he did not have his golden robe with him now and he can't tell them that he has given it to Qiu Xiuyu…
He quickly tried to explain, "That is because I feel that I am showing off too much lately and that is why I am keeping a low profile now."
"Oh really?" Little Princess looked at him with suspicion. "How come I didn't sense your golden robe beneath your robe?"
Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "That is because it is still a show off if I wear it beneath my robe."
Ling Feiyue asked with disbelief, "It is really rare for Ji Yuan not to show off his awesomeness."
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
"Actually…" Ji Yuan tried to explain. "As you know, I'm a sword saint. It is against the dao of my sword to have such a formidable golden robe. By being too dependable on my golden robe, I can't pursue the pinnacle of the sword dao anymore."
When he had said this, he was looking quite pleased with his quick thinking; this looks like a most genius excuse.
So he gave himself: Ji Yuan +1 point.
Bai Qianfeng said, "But with your golden robe, you can display your sword dao to your fullness without a care for your defenses. Isn't it better?"
All the maidens were nodding as they agreed with Bai Qianfeng. After all, a goddess had just spoken and she can't be wrong.
Ji Yuan: …
He blinked his eyes before he said slowly, "Haha…actually…I wish to keep my offense and defense both in harmony…"
"Your arguments seem weak." Ling Feiyue interrupted him.
Shui Xisi kicked Ji Yuan on his leg and coldly said. "You have better be honest with us. You are lying."
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
How the heck did they know that I am lying?!
Ji Yuan slowly cleared his throat, "You won't want to know the real reason."
Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi said at the same time, "We do want to hear the reasons!"
They were quickly followed by Yu Jingjing, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess.
Only Feng Minyue remained quiet but her eyes were already showing doubts.
Ji Yuan took a deep breath as he said, "Actually I was taking a bath in a small river in the mortal realm when I had heard something. In my rush to check things out, I forget about my golden robe that I had left behind on the riverbank. When I had returned to the riverbank, alas, I had lost my golden robe. Now it is so embarrassing that I didn't want to tell anyone of you."
He started to look blankly at all six maidens, not knowing if they would buy his story.
Actually he had no confidence at all because after he had said it out loud, he felt that this story was actually quite lame.
All six maidens were looking at one another for a while.
Finally Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "This sounds like the type of silly things that Ji Yuan will do…"
"Indeed…" Little Princess nodded. "He is always so careless…"
"Although it is unbelievable, it is the type of unbelievable things that Ji Yuan will do." Shui Xisi agreed.
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
How come they have such low regard of me in their hearts?!
I will be silly?!
Impossible!
All of a sudden Yun Chi had suddenly approached Ji Yuan and his group again and she had stopped smiling, "What is taking you so long? Have you forgotten what you are supposed to do?"
Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly; he had almost forgotten about it after being distracted by the masculine profound pill that Senior Mo Bei had shown to him earlier.
He was supposed to execute upon their 'plan' to Bai Qianfeng.
And of course he was also distracted by another escapade to the interesting and fun mortal realm…
Bai Qianfeng frowned as she looked at Yun Chi coldly, "Why are you here again? We do not welcome you."
Yun Chi smiled, "Soon you will be."
"Hmph. Never." Bai Qianfeng answered coldly.
Ji Yuan quickly said, "Actually, I need the two of you to talk."
Bai Qianfeng: ???
Ling Feiyue said unhappily, "Why the two of them? Why can't you involve us?"
Ji Yuan answered weakly, "May the rest of you stay here for the time being while the three of us talk privately."
Bai Qianfeng and all the other maidens: ???
Yu Jingjing asked, "My lord, what is going on?"
Shui Xisi was also asking with a perplexed look, "Why can't the rest of us follow you?"
But Ji Yuan answered them solemnly, "Just the three of us. I am serious."
When Bai Qianfeng and the rest of the maidens saw that Ji Yuan had never looked so serious before, they were quite startled.
Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly as she stared at Yun Chi, "Very well then. I like to see what tricks you're playing or…"
She had turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Or what tricks he is playing."
Yun Chi smiled, "Definitely not a twosome. Or you like a threesome?"
Bai Qianfeng: …
Bai Qianfeng: …
Bai Qianfeng: …
The rest of the maidens: …
Ji Yuan: …
He cursed weakly: Yun Chi still got the mood to crack her wily jokes at this time…
