Chapter 1168 The Great Immortal Rohan is here
Ji Yuan was now in a jovial mood as he continued the banquet with his maidens.
He was more interested in drinking the beautiful wines than eating.
As a high level cultivator, Ji Yuan don't really need to eat or drink.
The banquet however had dozens of spirit fruits, spirit plants and spirit pearls that could increase one's cultivation.
However, there were no roasted or fried meats that Ji Yuan liked to eat.
It was a rather distasteful banquet for him but his maidens seemed to rather enjoy the food though.
All of a sudden, a cultivator had entered the great hall and he was gasping panicky, "We saw a big profound ship coming. And it is from the Evil Cultivation Palace!"
Ji Yuan was startled as he immediately jumped from his seat and he was shouting to the cultivator, "Show me where you see it!"
All the other maidens were startled as they did not expect for the Evil Cultivation Palace to launch an attack so quickly.
Shui Xisi cursed aloud, "A lone profound ship? These cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Palace must be too tired of living and courting their own death!"
Ling Feiyue said to her, "It may be just a scouting vessel and they may retreat as soon as we attack them. Or they are just trying to exhaust our mental readiness by making several feign attacks."
As soon as Ji Yuan was outside the great, he had spotted a black profound ship in the sky that was approaching at a slow speed toward them.
He could see several cultivators on the deck of this black profound ship and he was astonished to see that they were waving white flags instead.
Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "They are not here to fight? But why come in such a big profound ship?"
Ling Feiyue was also frowning too, "This may be a ruse."
Xue Qianxue nodded, "Maybe this profound ship carries a heavy load of profound bomb and it will detonate when it comes near to us. The Evil Cultivation Palace is capable of such a trick."
Saintess Jian Yuluo said curiously, "Waving a white flag means that they are here to talk or surrender. I wonder which one it is?"
Little Princess was suddenly gasping, "Ji Yuan. My…"
She lowered her head to say quietly, "My mother consort or rather my fake mother the Sagess Alyssa is here. I should call her the Goddess Alyssa now."
Ji Yuan was startled too.
He had remembered being hunted by her and then he was forced to enter a cave with Shui Qingqing.
"Why is she here? To fight us?"
A profound voice from the black profound ship was suddenly heard saying, "We have come to talk peacefully with you. I am the Great Immortal Rohan."
Ji Yuan was startled, "Beside the Goddess Alyssa, there is another immortal on board that ship?"
Xue Qianxue was startled as well and she quickly warned Ji Yuan, "This Great Immortal Rohan is the supreme leader of the eastern regions. He is a high level leader of the Evil Cultivation Palace."
Ji Yuan nodded as he had heard of it as well.
This Great Immortal Rohan was in charge of the Eastern Regions of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."
Yun Chi said quietly, "There are actually 6 other immortals as well."
Ji Yuan was frowning, "Then they are here to fight. With so many immortals, they can easily captured any cultivation sect with their might. Unfortunately for them, I am here…"
"We have come to talk with the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan," the profound voice of the Great Immortal Rohan continued.
He had purposely added a 'Great' in front of Ji Yuan's Sword Saint title.
Ji Yuan raised his profound voice to shout across the heavens, "We have nothing to talk about. If you want to fight, just say so. There is no need for you to use such a sneaky attack to bypass our profound arrays. As soon as you are near, we will use our profound arrays against you!"
Many of the maidens were impressed with Ji Yuan and were saying the same, "Yeah. Let's fight them!"
Ji Yuan rolled his eyes to look at the maidens that had just commented, especially Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress. "They have 7 immortals on that profound ship. Are you sure that you can survive a fight with an immortal? Even I am unsure that I can survive a fight against 7 immortals."
Yun Chi smiled to him, "Except for that Great Immortal Rohan, the rest of the immortals seem to be weaker than you. However, you ought to be careful. After all, you won't know what their immortal profound arts are and it won't be an easy fight."
The profound voice of the Great Immortal Rohan echoed back, "Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have brought a handsome gift for you and we are sure that you will like it. May we land and talk? Then you shall decide if our sincerity is enough for you?"
Ji Yuan echoed back with his profound voice, "A gift? Do you think that I will be easily bribed? I haven't settled the score with you for killing the Saintess Fang Zhenfei. And you want to talk with me?"
The Great Immortal Rohan echoed with a heavy sigh, "Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have nothing to do with the deaths of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei or for the atrocities that were committed in this region. Next to me, is the Goddess Alysa and she wants to see her daughter Little Princess as well. We have come in peace. Like you, we do not want to submit to the Great Demon God and we hope to secure an alliance with you. We are willing to talk terms with you..."
Ji Yuan laughed aloud, "Talk terms with us? Will you give up your base at the Profound Heaven Sword Manor? And even the eastern regions?"
The Great Immortal Rohan echoed, "That's right. I am willing to return the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to you as a gesture of my goodwill and this includes the eastern region. Also, we have come to fight alongside with you against the Great Demon God."
Ji Yuan was startled as he frowned, "Aren't you from the Evil Cultivation Palace? Why are you betraying the Great Demon God?"
The Great Immortal Rohan echoed with a heavy sigh, "I am never a willing servant to the Evil Cultivation Palace that is founded by the Great Demon God. I am a desolate immortal. Or rather, I am what you call a celestial immortal. We are related to you."
Ji Yuan turned to Xue Qianxue to ask, "What do you think?"
Xue Qianxue smiled wryly back, "Now that you have returned, everyone seems to regard you as the resistance leader than me. You can decide this for all of us."
Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he raised his profound voice to say, "I don't mind listening to your peace talks. But it has better to be good."
The Great Immortal Rohan echoed back, "You will be pleased with our concessions and even our gift for you."
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "The gift has better to be good. But I don't want any divine swords. Haha…"
Shui Xisi whispered to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, "Look at Ji Yuan. He looks so happy when he is talking about a gift. He is so easily bribed."
The Lovely Empress was giggling too as she replied, "I totally agree with you as well. He is very poor."
Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly at them.
You know that I can hear the two of you, right?
