When Ji Yuan saw Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin, he had called them Qingqing and Maiden Zhao Songjin at the same time.action

Qingqing was delighted that Ji Yuan was addressing her so informally and even calling her by her name directly.

However for Zhao Songjin, she looked hurt that Ji Yuan was addressing her in such a formal manner and even addressing a title in front of her name and even calling her proper full name.

Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin were sisters that were separated at birth and their mother consort was Matriarch Han Yuchi of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the same celestial clan as Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue. 

Ji Yuan had previously fought with Zhao Songjin in the past and so did Xue Qianxue. 

Shui Qingqing smiled when she saw Ji Yuan, “Ji Yuan! You are here too! Or shall I call you the Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan?”

Zhao Songjin lowered her glance to say quietly, “Congrats to you for becoming the great alliance leader now.”

She had a secret longing for Ji Yuan ever since he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth even though they were merely friends with benefits. 

Ji Yuan chuckled, “I didn’t expect to meet the two of you here. Hahaha…”

Then he grinned, “We are all friends. There is no need to call me Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan or great alliance leader. Just continue to call me Ji Yuan or Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Hahaha…”

Shui Qingqing smiled shyly as she asked him, “You seem to be in a hurry. Where are you going?”

Ji Yuan had no idea where he was going too. He was actually chasing after Destiny and then he had thought of looking for Shui Xisi. 

After thinking quickly, he decided to say. “Erm… I am actually looking for Xisi, your matriarch. Where is she? I’ve heard that she is talking to the Great Immortal Rohan.”

The reason why he had decided to look for Shui Xisi and not Destiny first was because he did not want Shui Xisi to green him. Or allow anyone to green him.

Shui Qingqing was surprised, “Yes. She was talking to him earlier. But I am not sure if my matriarch is still there though. But why are you looking for her? Aren’t the two of you are always at odds? Do you need me to help you to pass the message for you? It may be safer for you.”

Ji Yuan laughed aloud, “I am now a half-immortal at the 9th cultivation realm. I will be afraid of your matriarch? Impossible! She shouldn’t be the one that is afraid of me…”

“I saw her kick you down the platform the other day when you are just back from fighting the Great Demon God,” Shui Qingqing pointed out.

“Erm… I was in a weaken state back then.” Ji Yuan began to protest immediately.

Then he quickly grinned when Shui Qingqing had reminded him of that, “I am looking for her to settle that score with her.”

Shui Qingqing became panicky immediately as she quickly said, “Ji Yuan, please spare my matriarch. If you are willing to spare her, I will do anything for you. Even if… even if… you want…”

She had suddenly become flustered and was unable to continue…

But Zhao Songjin seemed to understand this; she could tell that her sister is in love with Ji Yuan and it isn’t actually a real sacrifice.

Ji Yuan felt bad about lying to Shui Qingqing so he said, “I promise you that unless your matriarch acts first then I won’t do anything funny to her, alright?”

Shui Qingqing looked tenderly at Ji Yuan, “Thank you so much!”

Ji Yuan laughed weakly as he admired the beautiful curves on Shui Qingqing; he would be lying if he was never tempted by Shui Qingqing’s beautiful looks and features but he found her too innocent and naïve. That was why he felt that she was too good for him. 

On the other hand, her sister Zhao Songjin was her opposite.

Zhao Songjin said quietly to Ji Yuan, “Ji Yuan, it seems that you have a lot of maidens as your consorts now. I didn’t even recognize half of them. How did you manage to do that?”

When she had said this, even Shui Qingqing looked a little teary. 

Ji Yuan was at a loss of words, “Erm…”lightsnovel

Zhao Songjin continued with a wry smile, “Then why don’t you take my Sister Qingqing as your consort too? Or she is not beautiful for you?”

Then she smiled, “Or me if you want to.”

Ji Yuan was stunned by her directness, “It isn’t a matter of beautiful or not. This isn’t a matter of time either. It is how we click with each other.”

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm When he had said this, he was feeling quite proud of himself; what a great speech! 

“Are we not your friends with benefits too?” Zhao Songjin asked him with a playful look. “So, did we click with you or not?”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Did she just find a hole in my perfect speech?

Shui Qingqing looked woefully at Ji Yuan, “That’s right. Aren’t we friends? Didn’t we click when we are in the dragon cave together?”

Ji Yuan began to stammer, “Erm…”

He pondered panicky as he stammered, “Erm, we did click but…”

“But what?” Shui Qingqing asked him with a woeful look. 

Ji Yuan dare not look at her directly as this woeful look was too heart melting. “But alas, I have a feud with your matriarch. She will never agree to us being together.”

That is, this is my perfect excuse!

Shui Qingqing was startled and she began to lower head, “That’s right. My matriarch doesn’t like you…”

Zhao Songjin seized to say, “On the other hand, my Sister Qingqing’s mother consort and my matriarch likes you. So this shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Ji Yuan: …

Zhao Songjin turned to say to Shui Qingqing, “Just leave your Water Melody Palace and join my Celestial Orthodox Sect. Your mother consort and I will surely support you wholeheartedly in this. You can be with Ji Yuan if you are to join us.”

Ji Yuan thought: She can’t be serious about this?

Just as he was still thinking about Shui Qingqing, Zhao Songjin lowered her glances to say to Ji Yuan. “Then what about me? Do you like me or not?”

Zhao Songjin had actually wanted to keep her feeling for Ji Yuan buried in her heart forever but she could not endure it any longer. “I don’t want to make it into my greatest regret by keeping quiet about this.”

Shui Qingqing reached out to hold Zhao Songjin’s hands and said, “Sister… we… both like the same man…”

Zhao Songjin said half-heartedly, “Maybe he despises me in his heart.” 

Then both Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing began to look at Ji Yuan, hoping that he could give them a reply.

Ji Yuan used to say to the many maidens that were interested in him, “I am not interested in any maidens and I want to focus on my cultivation.” 

That was of course before he had met Jiajia. 

But today, he can’t use this same excuse.
