The next day the entire Green Faction had set off into desert again.
And Yun Chi was leading the vanguard teams.
Many of the cultivators were secretly anxious as they muttered among themselves;
"Although her peerless beauty is acknowledged by all but women are infamous for their lack of direction…"
"Although that is a sexist remark but you never know..."
"Shall we ask Ji Yuan to lead us instead?"
"She is leading us into the sand dunes? What if these sand dunes collapse or if we are ambushed by the desolate monsters?"
Quite a few of the cultivators secretly informed Ji Yuan of their worries.
"If we walk into a den of desolate monsters in the thick sand dunes, our entire Green Faction will be wiped out if we cannot find a way out…"
"We should choose a flat terrain…"
"Our divine sense may be blocked by the sand dunes…"
But Ji Yuan laughed and told them, "Maiden Yun Chi is an expert guide in the desert. Trust her."
But secretly he was also anxious because Yun Chi was the Death God Mingwang and she may be totally unpredictable.
What better way to kill him and the rest, was by leading them to their own dooms?
She can fly, so naturally the ones that would perish will not be her.
But he found himself saying to these cultivators, "Trust her, she knows what she is doing. Worse come to worse, we still have our Escape Talisman. Haha…"
When he had said that, he simply could not believe what he was saying.
It was not just his life that was at stake but the maidens in his party as well.
He quickly returned to his team but only found Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.
"Where are the rest?" He asked curiously.
"They're discussing something and will be back soon." Yu Jingjing answered.
Sure enough; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi had quickly appeared.
Their moods were jovial when they had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan away from his conversations with Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.
Ji Yuan frowned, "It is only early in the morning and the three of you are already gossiping so merrily."
Then he laughed, "If you want to gossip, come and share with the four of us. Haha…"
"My lord," Little Princess was smiling. "We just have a little discussion only and we are actually planning to tell you after we've done with it. Now we are going to share with you."
Ji Yuan: ???
"The three of you sounds so mysterious." He muttered.
Yu Jingjing chuckled, "Sisters, why don't you involve me in your discussion? I am so hurt!"
Ling Feiyue laughed, "We didn't want to interrupt you with Ji Yuan, that's all. Plus it isn't something earthshaking."
Yu Jingjing averted her eyes shyly as she smiled coyly, "I…am…not…"
Shui Xisi laughed as she hit Ji Yuan on his chest, "You will be pleased with our news for sure!"
Ji Yuan: ???
"Stop beating around the bush and tell me already." He began to frown.
Little Princess looked at Ling Feiyue, "You're our lord elder consort. Why don't we let you tell Ji Yuan instead?"
Ling Feiyue smiled, "Then I shall not be too polite. Heehee…"
"Ji Yuan, do you remember that we've met the Death God Mingwang here in this trial?"
Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and was startled; did they discover Yun Chi's identity already?!
Ling Feiyue gigged, "Why are you looking so nervous? Tell you a piece of good news! After discussing, we think that it is unlikely that the Death God Mingwang will be in the same trial as us. If he is, then he will easily be the target of all the cultivators. The minute that he released his desolate aura, all the cultivators will know that he is the enemy."
"Moreover, if he kills everyone in his faction then he can't complete his trial as well." Little Princess smiled.
Shui Xisi chuckled as she further pointed out, "Therefore the Death God Mingwang has to quit this trial sooner or later. And he has probably quitted this trial already or else he will be just wasting his time here. That is why he has given our Sister Qianfeng the time to think over his condition."
"But the true reason is that he is unable to complete the trial here." Ling Feiyue giggled. "Hence he has given Sister Qianfeng the time to think over."
Ji Yuan frowned, "You mean the one about restoring your desolate strength?"
Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes; the real condition is that she has to leave with the Death God Mingwang if she wants Ji Yuan to live.
"So Ji Yuan, what do you think of our analysis? Are we brilliant or not?" Ling Feiyue giggled.
Shui Xisi and Little Princess were also giving a hopeful glance at him.
Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he did not know what to say; he can't tell them that the Death God Mingwang is right in their midst and is none other than Yun Chi.
So he can only smile most bitterly, "It is a beautiful analysis. Finally I can set my mind to complete this trial in peace."
When the maidens heard Ji Yuan, they were all laughing jovially.
Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea, "Big Brother, why is that we can sense that your soul sea isn't at peace?"
Fairy Anyang sighed, "That is because he can't tell them that Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang and she is in their midst now or they will panic."
"But I don't understand why the Death God Mingwang didn't want to take out our Lord when he had the first opportunity?"
Xiang Li chuckled, "That is because Sister Qianfeng and Sister Sisi are very, very strong cultivators. Not to mention that Sister Qianfeng also has two seventh rank spirit pets too. If Yun Chi fights Big Brother headlong then he may not win. Therefore she is trying to separate Sister Qianfeng from us."
Fairy Anyang nodded, "Right. This Qianfeng is an immortal goddess. She isn't weak and moreover she has a celestial sword too."
Xiang Li asked proudly, "Big Brother, am I right?"
"Or it is because his Brother Xiao Muhan is now giving him the cold shoulder all of a sudden?" Fairy Anyang giggled. "So no more broke-back brothers.
Ji Yuan began to inhale deep and he was sighing miserably, "I've been thinking the whole night. I was so close to banging Yun Chi last night. I just can't get the image of her body, especially the one between her legs off my mind. Why didn't I bang her last night…"
Fairy Anyang: …
Xiang Li: …
