Back to the Spirit Divine Realm.
Just a moment had only passed when Ji Yuan had fainted again.
Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina were both unconscious now with the two greatest champions of the spiritas race had both lost to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked in the direction of the unconsciousness Goddess Ai Tina and saw she was being tended by Xu Yifei and Maiden Flower Ju.
But for the 4 other divine consorts here as well as Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Destiny, they seemed to be more concerned if Ji Yuan was dead or alive when compared to the Goddess Ai Tina.
And it seemed that only Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was left unchallenged in the streets and the tens of thousands of spiritas did not know what to say and they looked disappointed.
Was there no one that could challenge Number 1 now?
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Destiny who was still checking on Ji Yuan, "You look like a strong opponent. So do you want to challenge me as well?"
Destiny looked startled by the sudden question and she saw that there were now thousands of eyes looking at her now.
The only face-saving measure left for the spiritas was their mysterious 'Great Oracle' now and they did not even know that Destiny was not even their own race.
Destiny clutched onto her long black rod tightly before displaying a smile, "I believe that you are here to fight with the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, am I right? And not anyone else."
At her current cultivation realm, she may not be able to fight this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but she also knows that her opponent was also under a restriction in the Spirit Divine Realm as well as this place was unfriendly to the demonic races.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "That's right."
"If so, then there is no point in a fight." Destiny chuckled. "Also, I am not a sword cultivator. It is pointless even if you can defeat me."
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Destiny for a while before saying slowly, "Your cultivation realm should be… higher than me."
Destiny smiled, "I don't want to be killed by someone with a lower cultivation realm today."
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled too, "This may not be necessary."
Destiny smiled, "If we fight, then you may really have to unsheathe your divine sword. Do you want that to happen?"
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was also smiling, "Indeed not."
Destiny was smiling too; she knew that their conversations were over. This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was unlike the other demonic races that she had seen in the past and she seemed to have more honor than most of her race.
Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie'Er, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all startled by the conversation between Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny; they did not know that even though this may look like a causal exchange but there was also an invisible exchange between Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny.
It was because the two of them were testing each other's confidence with their mere words.
In this place, only Destiny gave Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao an uneasy feeling but she did not seem to be interested to interfere when she was dueling with the Goddess Ai Tina, Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly stood up and said with her profound voice to all in the vicinity, "Today, I have lost to your Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and so, he has won."
When she had said that, everyone was startled and shocked at the same time.
She had obviously won?
But why had she declared Ji Yuan to be the victor instead?
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely said, "It is dishonorable for me to suppress your Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan with my superior cultivation realm. And moreover, he has also broken several of my sword domains. I don't think I can do as well as he did when I am just at his cultivation realm…"
Originally, she had only wanted to display her profound strength to the 7th cultivation realm to duel with this Ji Yuan and she did not put on a hope that this may even be a worthy fight when compared to fighting with the Death God Mingwang. But the Death God God Mingwang turned up to be a pregnant maiden and this dampered her fighting spirit.
As for this Ji Yuan, he turned up to be such a worthy adversary that she had forgotten about her increased cultivation realm when fighting him and she was only interested to display her sword domains to defeat this genius sword cultivator that claimed no one was above him if he was number 2.
There was also something that she had left unfinished and it was: Ji Yuan, you have saved me. So I am in your debt today. Also because of you, finally I have my breakthrough to my sword dao. And maybe I can even become a real divinity because of you. So, thank you.
She paused to say silently: When you are up Ji Yuan, I will be back briefly…
But because Ji Yuan was unconscious now and there were too many people around, she did not say what was in her heart.
She took a last look at Ji Yuan and was amused when she had remembered that he had given her 3 incense time to recuperate.
This was totally unnecessary.
Even though her cultivation realm was restricted in this realm but her true cultivation realm was still at the peaked 9th cultivation realm, therefore her recovery rate and profound strength was more than what Ji Yuan had supposed.
As a matter of fact, she had barely even consumed her profound strength during her fight with both the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei since she had only relied upon her Sword Dao of the Small Universe.
While still feeling amused, she had suddenly tiptoed to the sky with her red profound animus and in the next blink of an eye, she had flown away.
All the onlookers did not know what to say of this but they were all smiling now. And soon everyone was all clapping aloud and cheering aloud!
"Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan!!! All hail our Great Oracle!!!"
"All hail Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan!!!"
Tang Manni was relieved that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had left just like this.
And she smiled to say to the other divine consorts, "We must all thank our Great Oracle. She helps Master Ji Yuan to avert this Number 1 great calamity from him!"
Destiny displayed a nonchalant look but she was feeling quite awkward; it was because she had the very intention to wish Ji Yuan to die at the very start and she did not mean to save him.
Moreover, she actually did nothing at all.
Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had recognized her to be a superior immortal and the two of them did not want to fight in this place.
Ding Jie'Er had lifted Ji Yuan by his shoulder, "Let's get Yuan Beluga to the tavern first…"
Yu Jingjing had suddenly interrupted her and she looked displeased, "Who are you to Ji Yuan? Do you know who we are to Ji Yuan? We should be the one that can be allowed to carry him."
Tang Manni said to Yu Jingjing with a wry smile, "I don't know about you but we are someone that is important to Master Ji Yuan. He has to rely on us for his trust points."
Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi: …
Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were also smiling behind Tang Manni as they said together with great adulation for Ji Yuan, "Great Spiritas Hero belongs to us…"
This fight with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had further increased the adulations that the 5 divine consorts had for Ji Yuan even though titled spiritas could only have one lord.
Ji Yuan's status in their hearts were now totally unshakeable and these divine consorts were now shamelessly claiming Ji Yuan to be theirs instead of caring if Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were Ji Yuan's love ones instead.
