The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 1220 The Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan

Diviner Mo Ming raised his profound voice as he said to everyone, "Today is most holy day of our Desolate Celestial Fraternity as we are choosing an Alliance Leader to represent all of us in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity. Naturally, we are choosing the Great Savior Ji Yuan of our Desolate Celestial Fraternity to be the Alliance Leader. As everyone knows, Great Savior Ji Yuan is the one that had defeated the Great Demon God while we are helpless and in our darkness hour of need, he was there for us…"

"… therefore we are choosing Great Savior Ji Yuan to be our Alliance Leader, to represent all of us. Shall we now, let Great Savior speaks to all of us?"

When he had said that, there were thunderous claps and applauds from the thousands of cultivators and everyone was shouting aloud once more for Ji Yuan, "Great Savior Ji Yuan! Alliance Leader Ji Yuan!"

Ji Yuan immediately stepped forward and he was grinning as he raised his profound voice to address everyone, "Well, it isn't what I am expecting. Hahaha…"

He was actually expecting everyone to bow down in fear in front of him just like in many cultivation stories and then he would be the rule them because he was the most powerful and he filled everyone with dread.

He had imagined himself as the most badass cultivator ever and a most arrogant one.

Well, that was just a thought. 

He also relished the great attention that he was receiving from everyone as he laughed aloud, "I didn't expect to be standing here today as everyone's savior. I am just the average cultivator like all of you here and I try to do my best for the Desolate Celestial Fraternity…"

Shui Xisi who were sitting very near to the Lovely Empress, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were whispering to them, "He is only pretending to be humble…"

All the other maidens quickly agreed with her.

Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he had very sharp ears and he was frowning to himself: I notice that these 5 maidens seem to have formed a new gossip group on their own and they are as close as sisters nowadays… 

Then he added to himself: It isn't surprising coming from Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi or even Xue Qianxue and Little Princess. But why is Lu Jiangsu among them?! 

He was naturally referring to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu of course.

But he quickly laughed aloud as he addressed everyone with his profound voice, "The reason why I am so lucky to become the savior of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity is because I cultivate hard like all of you. Maybe I cultivate just a little harder more than anyone, cultivating without any breaks or leisure…"

Many of Ji Yuan's maidens and even Mo Bei had a stunned look when they had heard Ji Yuan; they all know that Ji Yuan hates to cultivate.

Ling Feiyue whispered to Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue. "Now I know why he doesn't want to let us know his speech…"

Ji Yuan laughed aloud as he continued to say, "Of course, being more hardworking than anyone else isn't just the key to become a top cultivator of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity. The main key is that for 500 years, I have no maidens or dao cultivation partner. Do you want to know why? It is because a maiden will only slow down the speed of your sword! Don't say that I didn't warn all of you! As for the maidens here, the same goes for you as well. Men will slow down your cultivation speed!"

All of Ji Yuan's maidens: …

Xue Qianxue frowned softly to Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress, "Is he whitewashing his history?"

Ji Yuan continued to laugh jovially, "If a sword cultivator like me can be a hero, so can all of you as well! All you need is plenty of guts to be fight against your oppressors!"

Little Princess hummed to the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, "Yeah. It takes a lot of guts to be a cannon fodder for the others. Foolhardy bravery."

Ji Yuan: …

What the heck are they doing over there and gossiping about my beautiful speech?

Ji Yuan continued to say heartily to the thousands of cultivators that were listening below the steps, "But since I have been nominated as the Alliance Leader, I guess that I will accept this position then. But I think the title of Alliance Leader isn't that fitting for me. Hahahaha…."

Everyone: ???

Mo Bei smiled weakly to Diviner Mo Ming, "I guess he wants to title himself as the Emperor of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."

Ji Yuan laughed aloud, "So I am thinking of styling myself as the Supreme Leader instead. What do all of you think? This sounds like a more humble title, right? I am really a humble cultivator."

The Lovely Empress whispered to Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue. "Why don't he call himself the Evil Supreme Leader instead?"

Ji Yuan: …

Diviner Mo Ming quickly interrupted Ji Yuan, "I think that Alliance Leader isn't too fitting for our Great Savior Ji Yuan now. But I think that Supreme Leader isn't a good title either. How about the Great Alliance Leader instead?"

Then he whispered to Ji Yuan, "Supreme Leader?! Ji Yuan, we are asking to be nominal leader and you want to rule over us? You have better take my suggestion or else you have pay back the Mo Clan the 1 billion spirit stones that you've owed us."

Ji Yuan: …

He laughed weakly as he addressed all the cultivators, "Well. I think that Great Alliance Leader actually sounds better. Hahaha…"

Ji Yuan then moved on as he laughed with great delight, "Well, as you all know. It has been a long time since the basic laws of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity has been changed…"

There is a famous basic law that is popular in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity; if the offense against another cultivator isn't a killing feud then the other cultivator is allowed to hide away for 100 years and everything will be forgiven.

Ji Yuan grinned playfully as he declared heartily, "From today onward, cultivators without a beard is not to be despised. Anyone that despises another cultivator that is without a beard is not only an offense in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity but also against me. Hahaha…"

Actually 1/3 of the men presented had already shaved off their beards before coming to this congregation and it was getting more popular each day as more and more men shaved off their beards.

Best of all, they even get praises from their maidens or dao cultivation partners for doing so.

Ling Feiyue whispered to Shui Xisi, Xue Qianxue, the Lovely Empress and little Princess, "Why is this law not surprising to me?"

All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grown solemn as he said. "As all of you know. There are already too many deaths that had occurred recently. Everyone suffers some forms of losses whether it is small or big. I know that many of you are exacting your vendetta against one another. I am not asking you to bury your hatchet but if you can exercise some mercies or kindness to your enemies for them to repent, it would be good. A long time ago, maybe you are all relatives. Do you have to kill all the unrelated people? Spare the innocents and give your enemies a chance to do their penances."

Then he said to everyone, "Have it ever occur to all of you that all the cultivation stories that teach you to kill the entire clan, the entire cultivation sect and engaged in all kinds of revenge attacks are actually the work of the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Palace?"

"It is because the Great Demon God wants all of you to kill another person over a little slight. Only by making all of you cruel and blood thirsty, can he stop your cultivation and allows the heart demon to grow within you. Do you really think that the Heavenly Dao won't punish the evil people?"

"If you have been brainwashed by the bloodletting rubbish then it is time for you to wake up. The cultivation stories are fake because the reason why you cultivate, is to be at the same level as the Heavenly Dao. But if you derivate from the Heavenly Dao, then death only awaits you. Cultivate your heart first then your body. Then you can be a strong cultivator. Also, we can make our Desolate Celestial Fraternity a better place for the future generations too!" 

When Ji Yuan had said this, many of his maidens were startled; it doesn't sound like what Ji Yuan would say normally.

Ji Yuan was now grinning as he said that as he waited for his speech to sink in to all the thousands of cultivators.

Ruan Songci and Shui Qingqing looked extremely impressed by him.

And so did many of his admirers.

Then he was also grinning as he looked in the direction of the Mystic Eye Sect whose cultivators were all trying to record what he had just said.

The smarter maidens of Ji Yuan immediately realized that they had just been duped by Ji Yuan and he was only trying to impress everyone with his heroic speech.

The Lovely Empress cursed him softly, "This Ji Yuan is really nothing but a charlatan…" 

Shui Xisi slammed her fist, "I totally agreed with you as well!"

Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were looking at the two of them sheepishly and they were all thinking the same: The two of you are also charlatans too…
