Chapter 770 The Tavern's Conflict
Ji Yuan was now back in the tavern but he had 5 divine consorts with him along the way.
Along the way, he was looking so awkward because it was like he was being escorted by like a prisoner because he was literally surrounded by the 5 divine consorts along with their female followers.
And the spiritas in the streets were all looking and pointing at him, curious why there was a male that were being escorted by so many divine consorts for the very first time.
“I have heard that the great rebel leader is based in our city. Is he that great rebel leader?”
“Maybe he has violated one of the divine consorts?”
“It is a pity. He has such a beautiful face…”
“But he doesn’t look like a prisoner.”
Actually, Ji Yuan was not the only ones that were feeling awkward, all 5 of the divine consorts were also feeling the same as well.
When they had all reached the tavern, they were all relieved.
As they entered into the tavern, Ji Yuan saw that Xiao Muhan was at the counter and he was talking with Maiden Flower Ju, although it was obvious that she was trying to avoid him by not looking at him.
But both Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju were startled to see Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei returning with Ji Yuan and 4 other divine consorts.
𝔫𝒪𝚟𝓔𝓵𝓃𝑬xt.𝑐𝑂𝗆
A female follower of Great Consort Xu Yifei giggled in their direction to announce, “Our great divine consort is finally back!”
She had two meaning to this.
One is that their mistress Xu Yifei is now back at the tavern.
Second is that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has finally regained her great divine consort spirit realm.
Maiden Flower Ju was astonished by the announcement but she was soon smiling with great delight and her eyes were bleary, “It is good. Our great divine consort is finally back. It is worth waiting for the past 500 years…”
Xiao Muhan on the other hand was stammering, “Brother Ji Yuan. You are back? What happens this time?”
But he quickly caught on to the announcement as he stared blankly at the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, “She is also a divine consort… and also a great divine consort?!”
He began to curse himself for not pursuing Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei or to make an even better impression when he was staying at the tavern…
Ji Yuan said weakly to him, “You won’t believe me. I just fought with an immortal divine lord in the street earlier and I’ve almost got myself killed.”
Xiao Muhan took a look at Ji Yuan and he was roaring with laughter, “Dang you, Ji Yuan! Stop fooling my leg and you want to tell me afterward that is how you have met with the 5 divine consorts? Do you think that I am a gullible cultivator with an intelligence of 0? If you can meet an immortal in the street just like this, why didn’t I see one myself? Hahahaha.”
Ji Yuan protested immediately as he said awkwardly, “That is because I am more beautiful than you so therefore, I am more noticeable than you. He asks me to be his male harlot or die.”
When Xiao Muhan heard him, he began to hold onto his belly and he was laughing jovially. “You sound so funny when you look so serious but all your words are just crap…”
Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er and Divine Consort Tang Manni said almost at the same time, “Can you shut up? He is not lying!”
Xiao Muhan stopped laughing and stared blankly at them: ???
Then he turned to look at Divine Consort Sun Dingjun who was now saying to him, “You are throwing all my face away by insulting the honor of our great spiritas hero Ji Yuan here! Can’t you shut up and listen attentively to Ji Yuan?”
Xiao Muhan muttered weakly as he stared at the 5 divine consorts, “Erm, he is for real? An immortal? And he survives? He is a great spiritas hero?”
Divine Consort Dongfang Xin said coldly but her eyes were looking sentimentally at Ji Yuan, “I seem to recall that you are his ‘best friend’? I am now doubting your claims. Divine Lord Ji Yuan is naturally our great spiritas hero. He has killed an immortal divine lord on his own.”
Xiao Muhan was startled and he stammered, “Divine lord Ji Yuan?! When did he becomes a divine lord? What? He kills an immortal divine lord on his own…”
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said gently but her eyes were dreamily looking at Ji Yuan, “Naturally he is also a divine lord. We have decided to appoint Master Ji Yuan as our first ever Divine Lord in thousands of years and also the great spiritas hero of our city-state.”
Ji Yuan said weakly to Xiao Muhan, “It is exactly as you have heard. If I were to tell you myself, you probably will not believe me.”
Xiao Muhan: …
Xiao Muhan: …
Xiao Muhan: …
It was not only Xiao Muhan that was staring with disbelief but Maiden Flower Ju and the rest of the female followers of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as well.
When they saw all the other 4 divine consorts were here, they had all thought that something may have happened and they were quite nervous.
Other than Divine Consort Tang Manni, the other 3 divine consorts were not exactly on the best of terms with their mistress or even Divine Consort Tang Manni.
But hearing all the other divine consorts agreeing that Ji Yuan had killed an immortal divine lord still sounded unbelievable to them.
Xiao Muhan said to Ji Yuan weakly, “I still can’t believe that you can kill an immortal divine lord. You must be there at the right timing by picking up all the pieces when the immortal divine lord is about to die…”
Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er had flashed in front of Ji Yuan to push Xiao Muhan away by displaying a small golden spirit talisman on her finger tips and her spirit profound attack had suddenly sent Xiao Muhan to take 7 steps backward with a single show of her spirit talisman!
This also speaks of the disparity between the two of them in cultivation strength.
She said unhappily to Xiao Muhan as she started to grab Ji Yuan’s arm, “Don’t insult the great honor of my Yuan Beluga! He has fought with the immortal divine lord on his own and we have all seen his duel!”
Xiao Muhan was muttering weakly, “Maybe his duel is a fake…”
But luckily for him, no one except for Maiden Flower Ju seemed to have heard him.
It was because the rest were being distracted by a sudden fight between the divine consorts; Divine Consort Tang Manni, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun were all attacking Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er at the same time as they shouted, “Hands off from him!”
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had to interfere in their fights by displaying two spirit talismans to repulse the two fighting sides, “Enough. This is my tavern. I don’t want you to destroy my tavern or else I will be nasty…”
Ji Yuan was looking weakly at Xiao Muhan and he was smiling bitterly; it was because Xiao Muhan totally deserved to be rebuked by these divine consorts.
However, Ji Yuan was also feeling quite awkward. It was because he had never been in a situation where all the maidens had all believed in him like the situation now and they were even defending his honor.
He actually had been in more situations where he panicky tried to explain the truth but no one had believed him.
But now, he did not even need to say a single word to defend himself and these divine consorts would all be defending him fiercely.
He was beginning to think that he had an error with his Trust Points with these divine consorts and he reminded himself later to check his Trust Points with his black ring.
Right now, he felt that even if he had told them that he had never banged a maiden before, they would definitely believe him.
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was suddenly saying to Ji Yuan, “Master Ji Yuan, please come with me. I have something important to discuss with you.”
“I will come with the two of you!” Divine Consort Tang Manni smiled as she was only too glad to get rid of these 3 pestering divine consorts.
She was thinking: Why did they have to come here in the first place? They are just too shameless!
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei turned to her sister to say, “Sister Manni, I have something personal to settle with Master Ji Yuan. May you stay here for a while.”
Divine Consort Tang Manni was stunned.
“I can’t go?”
Her sister had never treated her this way before.
When the other 3 divine consorts had heard Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, they were all smiling wryly.
Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was more sarcastic, “Your sister is a great divine consort and she wants to fight with her own sister over a male. It seems that there is nothing that you can do.”
Divine Consort Tang Manni was hurt by the words and she had displayed her hurt look at her sister…
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei held onto her hands to say gently, “Sister Manni. It isn’t what you think. I hope that you can believe your sister…”
But Divine Consort Tang Manni said instead and her eyes were now wet, “Just now I have heard your followers say you have kissed Master Ji Yuan in public. I like to believe you but I really cannot…”
Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled to see that her sister was almost in tears…
Ji Yuan had wanted to say something but somehow, he knows that he would only make it worst so he had decided to keep quiet.
He was instead muttering weakly to himself: She can cry so easily for a divine consort. I really believe that her heart is made of fragile glass now…
Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly pointed at Ji Yuan, “He didn’t even bother to clarify things. Now I finally know that he likes you…”
Ji Yuan, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei: …
Ji Yuan was the most startled; he actually got blamed for not saying anything…
