Ji Yuan had indeed spotted Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao sitting on the roof top and she was looking at the 2 full moons of the night skies.

She was not even looking at him when he had tiptoed to the roof top.

But like her, Ji Yuan was able to avoid stepping on the invisible defensive arrays that were laid on the roof.

His divine sense was no less inferior to her. 

And also, because Ji Yuan had plenty of experiences in circumstancing the various defensive arrays too as he often did dishonorable things peeking over the rooftops of the various celestial sects in the past and he was rarely caught. 

But of course, he could only stay at the weaker perimeter and not the interior where the defensive arrays were more secure and covered a larger perimeter.

She merely said at his approach, “It seems that this tavern is a little crowded tonight. A powerful immortal seems to be inside now.”

She was naturally referring to Achilles. 

“Maybe you should challenge him to a fight instead.” Ji Yuan sarcastically said.

But Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely displayed an uninterested smile. 

Ji Yuan did not feel a threat from her at this moment and he even had the guts to sit down next to her before asking, “Mm, you want to have a little chat with me?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said to him without turning to look at him while still appreciating the moons, “You have actually dared to come alone? You are not afraid of me?”

Ji Yuan chuckled, “I can’t fight you at this moment and surely this isn’t what you want, am I right? Moreover, if you want to fight me, you would have stormed the tavern instead. There is no need to retort to any tricks. And moreover…”

“And moreover?” Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly turned to look at Ji Yuan with a perplexed look.

Ji Yuan had inhaled deeply as he laid his back onto the sloping roof, “And moreover, if your purpose is to kill me then you won’t declare me as the victor in our duel. You are not a sore loser, this I am very sure.”

Ding Xiaoxiao smiled slowly but said nothing.

Ji Yuan turned to look at her beautiful countenance which was truly beautiful under the moon light, “You say that you want to have a little chat with me? What is it?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao curled a smile, “I just want to tell you that I will be going for a little fun trip in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for a short while. And then when we meet outside again, we shall be enemies once again. So, it is either you die or I die thereafter and I won’t show you any mercy.”

Ji Yuan did not look surprised and instead he asked curiously, “Isn’t it much easier to kill me now when you have the chance? You know, I may not lose to you the next round.”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao chuckled, “It seems that I am not the only one that has comprehended something during our fight.”

Ji Yuan began to laugh weakly, “Why are you so smart?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao answered, “Then I will be expecting our next fight.”

Ji Yuan displayed a nonchalant look as he said matter of fact, “Actually I have not confident that I will be able to defeat you. The disparity between us is too big, especially in terms of our cultivation realms and I don’t think you will lower your cultivation realm to fight me in the next fight.”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao nodded, “I don’t deny that.”

Ji Yuan asked, “Is this why you have come to tell me? This little chat of yours?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she returned to look at the moons, “The moons here are really beautiful. This place is a lovely place. Unfortunately like I say, I’ll be leaving tonight. Don’t you want to know the reason why I am looking for you?”

“Well, I am listening.” Ji Yuan chuckled softly.

“I have met your son in the Five Heavens Peak and I’ve almost killed him.” Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said with no remorse.

Ji Yuan straightened himself immediately, “What the heck? Did you kill him?”

Ding Xiaoxiao turned to look at him with a wry smile, “Almost kill him. I wanted to behead him but I am afraid that he is a little too tough so he lives.”

Ji Yuan was frowning now, “What does my son got to do with challenging me?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao took a look at him as she displayed a wry smile, “He seems tough so I think his father should be tougher. Moreover, he was praising you and so I have decided to look for you for a fight.”

Ji Yuan: …

This reason is a little too flimsy. She got nothing better to do?

“Are you mad now?” Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at him and it sounded more like a challenge. “After all, I have every intention to kill him.”I think you should take a look at

Ji Yuan asked bitterly, “And why didn’t you then?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply said, “He is already a fallen cultivator. Since he has survived, there is no point in killing him.”

Ji Yuan was quite relieved that his son was alive, “Don’t tell me that you have come to tell me this?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao shook her head slightly before she turned to say to him slowly, “Not really. I want to ask what your last wish for helping me to unravel the blocker in my cultivation. As long as it isn’t something against my honor, I can do it for you.”

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “What if I ask you not to help the Great Demon God?”

“This is not possible.” Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly. 

Ji Yuan began to frown slowly…

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked, “I do have a curious question though. Did you learn your life destruction swords from the Death God Mingwang?” 

Ji Yuan answered honestly but he was also looking nervous, “I was inspired by the life and death sword energies of the Death God Mingwang. You have fought with the Death God Mingwang?”

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao turned to look at him with an appraising look, “I didn’t think that the Death God Mingwang will be a she. This is so surprising. However, since she is pregnant, I’m not interested to fight with her anymore. Her life and destruction swords are extremely deadly and I’m interested to fight her one day to find out if she is stronger than I am.”

Ji Yuan looked a little relieved when he had heard that Yun Chi was alright…

This was not lost on Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. 

But she quickly turned to said solemnly, “Although the life and destruction swords can rapidly increase your profound power but against a superior opponent, you have to decide carefully which of your sword arts that really warrant you to expend your life force energies. Against me, you have used your life destruction swords 5 times and you still cannot defeat me. I guess that your 6th sword art is also a life and destruction sword, am I right?”

Ji Yuan laughed bitterly; Indeed, she had guessed correctly. 

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao’s sword domains are not life and destruction swords simply because the profound power of her sword arts is too powerful and it may even be fatal to her. But that is also why she can keep increasing the profound power of her sword arts with her sword domains as she need not fear about any backlash to her life force vitality. 

She stated nonchalantly to Ji Yuan as though she was a teacher that was giving a student a pointer, “Your weakness is that you can’t use your most powerful sword arts or sword domains repeatedly due to this constraint.” 

Ji Yuan could not dispute her so he merely nodded; she was just too sharp. 

Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly got up and she said quietly, “Well, you don’t have to tell me about your wish now. You still have plenty of time to think about it before we cross swords the next time.”

She paused to add with a wry smile, “That’s all, Number 2 Sword Under the Heavens.” 

After she had said that, she had suddenly leapt in the heaven above and she was holding the golden talisman in her fingers to burn it.

In just 3 blinks of an eye, the golden talisman was burnt and she had disappeared from view.

Ji Yuan muttered to himself, “If I say I want to screw you, will that be alright with you?”

Even after Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was long gone, Ji Yuan continued to lay on the roof as he watched the two moons that were in the night sky and he began to ponder what she had told him.

Ji Yuan had fought against both Yun Chi and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao now and their sword cultivations were completely different. 

Therefore, maybe if he wants to stand his ground against them, he has to come out with his own path in the sword cultivation.

“Well. Xiang Li and Anyang, what do you think?”

Xiang Li giggled as she answered him, “I totally agree with what Big Brother has just said. If you screwed her like Maiden Yun Chi then she has no choice but to surrender her skirt to you.”

When she had said this, Ji Yuan was so startled by her remarks that he dropped down flat from the rooftop. 

Xiang Li panicky called out, “Big Brother, are you alright?”

Anyang shook her head weakly, “Xiang Li, I am afraid that you just shocked our lord with your remarks…”𝔫𝚘𝓋𝑒𝓵𝓷𝚎xt.𝑪𝑜𝑀

Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherent while on the ground, “Xiang Li, are you really a maiden…”
