Ji Yuan's attention had quickly returned to Shangguan Yan.
He already knew her answers. She had told him that she had hoped that he was dead and would never come back.
Shangguan Yan voice was trembling softly and there were tears in her eyes, "He is a good master. I am just not worthy to be his core protégé. I can't protect the Orthodox Sword Sect. I don't want my old master to be back because I can't bear to let him see how useless I am. I don't want him to see this good-for-nothing core protégé that he has so painstaking trained to no avail."
Several of the protégés now had tears down their cheeks when they had heard her.
She continued woefully, "My old master is not only a Sword Saint, a peak sixth realm golden supremacy, the greatest poet in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity, the head of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivator with the most beautiful long beard in the fraternity and also has the celestial title of the Gentleman of the Sword but he is also the best master in the entire fraternity. Although he has scolded me harshly all the time but I know that he is trying to force me to be better and he has never lifted his finger to hit me, not even once."
The inner protégés were all trembling as they listened. Many of the female protégés were crying now. It was because they had been caned all too many times while they were receiving instructions from the elders and senior protégés in the past.
But their new Palace Mistress Shangguan Yan had never caned them and instead she was extremely patience with them. Moreover after each practice round she would chat with them so that everyone could keep up with the practice paces.
Although Shangguan Yan sword play was much slower than Fairy Ye Chengxi but her pace was enjoyable to many of the inner protégés, especially the slower ones.
Fairy Ye Chengxi sword play was too fast and it was difficult for her to slow down her natural reflexes. At the same time, she was also a fifth realm golden celestial and a renowned Sword Saintess so naturally even a simple stroke that had come from her, contained unfathomable speed and profound strength that defied the understanding of an ordinary cultivator.
Yuan Ji was trembling hard and he had to use all his willpower to suppress the tears that were in his heart. "Yan'Er remembers all my titles…I have really let her down…"
It took him a while to completely suppress all his emotions before he stepped out of hiding as he coughed on purpose to alert everyone that he was here, "So how is the practice? Is everyone doing well?"
All the inner protégés were startled by his sudden appearance and quickly greeted him.
He waved them off as he turned to Shangguan Yan to ask, "Fairy Chengxi isn't here yet?"
Shangguan Yan shook her head, "She will be here soon enough."
Yuan Ji nodded before he said, "Yan'Er, let's take a little walk over there first while we wait for her to arrive."
Shangguan Yan nodded as she followed him.
For some time, they did not talk at all but were both walking awkwardly together.
Finally Yuan Ji said awkwardly, "Yan'Er, actually…" He had suddenly hesitated. It was because he could not tell her that he was his old master. He did not even know why he was suddenly asking her to take a walk with him.
Actually he wanted to apology to her for his past action but he had suddenly remembered that he was not Ji Yuan the old master anymore but Yuan Ji and this Yuan Ji was now her personal lord.
Shangguan Yan looked at him quietly, "Actually?"
He hesitated sheepishly before saying, "Actually I have never look down upon you."
Shangguan Yan smiled awkwardly, "I know…" But her eyes were extremely melancholy. She did not dare to ask him why then he had not taken her if so?
But Yuan Ji could tell from her countenance what she was actually thinking of.
He heaved a heavy sigh before he said solemnly, "Yan'Er, I want to take you now."
Shangguan Yan was startled, "Now? Here?"
"Yes now. There is no one around." Yuan Ji said as he pulled her into the bushes.
Shangguan Yan was gasping softly, "In this place?"
Yuan Ji nodded, "I can't wait anymore. Yan'Er, are you willing?"
Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly before she said with flustered voice, "Your Yan'Er is most willing. I've been waiting for this day…"
It was all that he needed to hear.
Yuan Ji did not wait for her to say more as he quickly stripped her to nothingness, pulling her robe off, her dress, lingerie and finally her panties off her.
As he touched her, he was amazed that her body was silky smooth. This was a divine body in one in a million.
In front of him now, was a most beautiful maiden who was pure and close to his heart. It did not take him very long to start kissing her passionately.
"Yan'Er, this is going to hurt for your first time. I am going in now. Don't be afraid."
Shangguan Yan was already gasping softly with pleasures and Yuan Ji was rubbing all over her before he tried to enter into her; this caused her to grip her fingernails tightly into his firm body.
All of a sudden Yuan Ji was asking, "Your fingernails, did you apply the scents that Xia Jiaqing had left for you?"
It was because he had suddenly realized that before he had entered into her, her fingernails were already sinking it into him and he had only just noticed.
Shangguan Yan was suddenly gasping softly, "Out of habit, I am always applying it…"
Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before saying sheepishly, "Never mind, it is already too late. Do you have any antidote for it?"
Shangguan Yan muttered softly, "I have another scent that can remove it…but it is not with me now…"
"Tell me later which part is real and which part is delusion…" Yuan Ji was now on fire and he was impatient to talk. Very soon, he was passionately banging her like a wild beast.
