Another Cliché Cultivation Story

Chapter 87

The moment Ji Xian lifted his robe, the surrounding disciples slightly blushed at the sight of his body before quickly turning away. They were an all girls sect after all, while it wasnt uncommon for them to interact with other men when they head out for missions, they still kept a reasonable distance. The matter of man and woman was taken seriously in this world, very few people were like Ji Xian and Xia Lihua who were so physically intimate despite their somewhat ambiguous relationship.

Shameless person! How dare he flashed us.

Hmph! Is he trying to seduce us? Dream on!

Well, hes got good genes, Ill give him that.

The disciples groaned. Their faces appear shy and indignant.

Li Yifan didnt bother with them. She wasnt like these disciples who rarely left the sect. She has lived for millenniums and has experienced many things. Such a minor matter wasnt enough for her to feel anything.

She grabs hold of the books before passing them on to a disciple that was standing closest to her.

Return them to the second floor, she said coldly.

The disciple was caught off guard and became flustered but she quickly held on to the two books.

Ye yes, Second Yin Pavilion Master.

The disciple hurried left while the others also took this time to disperse as well. It was best not to overstay their welcome after knowing that Li Yifan had overheard their conversation earlier. With the books returned, there was no more reason for them to stay. They glanced at Ji Xian and made threatening faces at him as they leave.

He didnt think much of it and instead, found it adorable.

Li Yifan saw the group scattered. She didnt make it hard for them, allowing them to leave peacefully. She has become accustomed to these kinds of scenarios where the disciples would talk about her behind her back.

This didnt upset her, but rather, she preferred it this way. At the end of the day, she wasnt from this world. She was merely borrowing a body. Eventually, she would have to leave. It was best not to have too many connections with too many people. This was partly why she was so cold and indifferent toward everyone. She didnt want to become overly attached.

Unfortunately, things dont always go as planned. Out of the three hundred years that she has stayed in Mortal Desolate, the Ardent Yin Sect was the place she dwelled at the longest. It was at this place that she befriended Shao Qinglian and Fang Yu. It was a genuine relationship and she does care for them even though she rarely shows it.

A hint of reluctance appeared in her heart but she quickly shook her head,

All good things must come to an end.

She inwardly sighed.

After she watched the disciples leave, she moved her gaze back to Ji Xian. Shockingly, she wasnt alone. Unknowingly, a beautiful woman wearing an elegant white dress appeared and was standing next to him.

Li Yifan narrowed her eyes. She wasnt able to sense this womans arrival. Her cultivation was currently disguised to be at the Late stage of the Holy realm but in actuality, she was in the Peak stage. For someone to appear so close to her without her awareness, she couldnt help but raised her vigilance.

Throughout this entire time, Li Yifans focus was mainly on Ji Xian and due to this, it seems like she had neglected this woman who was by his side.

She carefully observed her.

Unlike Ji Xian, whose appearance looks shady and questionable, this woman in white exudes endless ethereal grace. Her hair was neatly combed back and with a pair of soft, straight eyebrows, phoenix eyes, and cherry pink lips, it was impossible to find any faults in her looks. There was a subtle aura that she was emitting. Even though it was obvious she was restraining it, it was impossible to completely hide it due to its intensity.

Li Yifan frowned. She knew what this aura was, it was a sort of self-confidence. Just the sliver that she could feel from the woman in front of her immediately gave her a sense of inferiority.

This feeling was unpleasant and she snorted with displeasure. Who was she? She was someone whose background alone would bring fear to many people in the Upper World. Since when had she ever felt inferior to anyone?

Li Yifan instantly felt nothing but distaste for this woman.

Her feelings were displayed all over her face, which was something that seldom happens.

Xia Lihua was catching up with Ji Xian when suddenly, she felt something and looked over.

Li Yifan stared straight into those radiant silver eyes with an unyielding expression. Unfortunately, there was something about Xia Lihua that made it difficult to maintain eye contact. She slightly winced before looking away.

Hmph! Youre lucky Im being restricted, otherwise

Ji Xian chuckled, Lihua, youre being a little too intimidating.

Im not doing anything, Xia Lihua softly laughed. She wasnt surprised by Li Yifans reaction. Many women in the past had similar reactions when they meet her. Either theyll like her or hate her, there was rarely any in between.

She began to stare at Li Yifan with interest.

Is she using that ability, Soul Subjugation? She suddenly asked without any restraint.

She had wanted to ask this initially, but the timing wasnt exactly appropriate. Now that Ji Xian was done with his business, she no longer held back her question.

Her eyes sparkled with fascination. She couldnt help but be amazed by the Universe. There actually exists a race that specializes in the souls. This made her wonder if there is a race or faction out there that had people like her and Xiao Yueyin.

She is, thats not her real body. Ji Xian casually nodded.

Xia Lihua had seen and experienced everything he went through in the Formatic near Solitude City, it wasnt surprising that she knew this information and its not an exaggeration to say that she was just as knowledgeable as he was with the Grahas.

Li Yifan was sullen. She glared at the loud couple before spreading her spiritual sense. After seeing that there were no disciples on the first floor, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The first floor of the Sacred Yin Hall was busy a moment ago, but after the appearance of Li Yifan, everyone quietly left, seemingly avoiding her.

You also know? She asked cautiously.

Xia Lihua smirked, Of course, youre like a beacon.

What?

Li Yifans expression dropped. This was already the second time she heard this. But she didnt ask Xia Lihua what she meant, even if she asked, she knew Xia Lihua wasnt going to say anything.

How do you know about Soul Subjugation? She asked Ji Xian. From his words earlier, it sounds like he was fully aware of this ability.

Uh, Ji Xian awkwardly coughed. Lets just say I was a Graha enthusiast.

Next to him, Xia Lihua bitterly shook her head. She recalled the torturous screams and it howled in her mind. She became slightly uncomfortable and no longer wanted to think about it.

Li Yifan pursed her lips, not at all satisfied with his answer. She stared at the couple in front of her while feeling fully exposed.

There shouldnt be anyone in Mortal Desolate that knew about Soul Subjugation. Even the Arcane Mountain doesnt know. Theyre only aware that the Graha race has somehow blended into humanity but wasnt sure how. The identity of these two people was becoming even more mysterious.

Just who are you? Are you two from the Upper World? She asked.

Ji Xian smiled. He has been asked this question so many times in the past that he no longer needs to think about what to say.

Were an immortal couple from the eighth dimension traveling the world, he blurted out as naturally as he breathed.

What nonsense, Li Yifan frowned in displeasure. Immortals dont exist and Ive never heard of this eight dimension.

Then it sounds like youre ignorant.

You!

Li Yifan gritted her teeth. Her patience was really being tested today. Never before had someone dared to call her ignorant. She was born from an extremely high pedestal, what has she not seen? People can only dream to be where she had stood.

This bastard is definitely messing with me. Ji Xian you damn idiot. You dont even know whom youre talking to. I better not see you ascend or Ill make your life a living hell! The Graha rules this universe with the Celestials, you wont be able to hide from me. Ill make you pay for this insolence!
