Chapter 450 The Temptation (1)
When the Great Beyond Goddess broke through the rift into the royal hall, her soft enticing voice drowned out the voice of the trial spirit who reacted with great fear.
“You will get a Queen.”
This was what she had muttered softly as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan was quite startled to see her but he quickly reacted calmly, “This is a dream trial. You cannot kill me in this place.”
He had suddenly recognized her as the maiden goddess that he had dreamed of that was trying to kill him.
She isn’t a dream?
That was his first thought.
The Great Beyond Goddess smiled coldly, “Is that so? This place is not the first time that we have met. I’ve wounded you in your dreams previously.”
Ji Yuan was suddenly startled when he recalled his injuries when he had woke up; he had thought that he was beaten up by his maidens when he was sound asleep but it now seemed that his dream was not a dream anymore or else how was he going to explain where this mysterious maiden had come from?
He could only say weakly, “This must be a misunderstanding, am I right? I mean, I don’t even know you.”
Regardless, it was better to claim not to know her first. After all, he was only here to pass the trial and to get the trial reward.
Xiang Li could only cowered in fear in the presence of this mysterious statuesque maiden as she whispered in Ji Yuan’s soul sea, “Big Brother, your girlfriend looks really unhappy today.”
Ji Yuan replied weakly, “She isn’t my girlfriend. Where is Anyang?”
Xiang Li could not find Anyang anywhere near and she could only muttered weakly, “I can sense that she is asleep now. Just a minuet ago, she is awake…”
Ji Yuan smiled weakly at the statuesque maiden, “I don’t even know what your name is. Are you sure we have met before or are you one of the desolate immortals? Do you think that you ought to owe me an explanation?”
The Great Beyond Goddess answered coldly, “You are Ji Yuan. I know you. Don’t bother to try to make a sneak attack on me. I know all your tricks.”
Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes; how did she know that I am checking her for a chance to make an attack?
No matter how beautiful this statuesque maiden is, Ji Yuan knows that she is an immortal and the power disparity between them is vast. That is why he knows that he has to strike fast and hard if he has to live.
He already had the cultivation of a great saint and his profound aura was that of a great saint. But this maiden goddess’ cultivation strength here was stronger than even a great saintess!
Shall he displayed his fighting profound animus to that of an eighth immortal positioning?
But all of a sudden he had a shiver; No, this won’t work. This maiden goddess here was even stronger in her cultivation than even Yun Chi…
But how is this possible? Maybe it is because she is also a trial spirit?
The Great Beyond Goddess was now looking intently at Ji Yuan and she had conflicting emotions; it was because she had remembered all his light touches and that this insolent mortal had even dare to put his fingers between her legs…
At the same time, she was also startled that Xiang Li and she could now co-exist in the same space and this was something unthinkable. It was as though Xiang Li had evolved her own personality due to Ji Yuan.
She had tried to search Ji Yuan’s soul sea for an answer but she could simply not understand why Ji Yuan had not made any wish despite the fact that he was aware that Xiang Li is the Goddess’ Tear.
In Ji Yuan’s soul sea, she saw memories of Ji Yuan saying to himself. “Goddess Tear or not, Xiang Li is not a tool for me or for anyone. She is my best friend, my dear companion and my spirit consort. Therefore I will always protect her like a big brother should.”
The Great Beyond Goddess was well aware that merely possessing the Goddess’ Tear even unknowingly will surely prompt the owner to make the wish as soon as possible for the Goddess’ Tear corrupts the heart of everyone, including the immortals.
But Ji Yuan was the only one that was unmoved even though Xiang Li had magnified his heart demons by manifolds and he remained true to his heart.
The Great Goddess sighed softly as she recalled how she had regained her temporary memory loss; the instant that she had entered into the Dream Trial, she had suddenly remembered who she was. As the Great Beyond Goddess, she willed herself to pass the trial and to tear a rift to where Ji Yuan was.
This was something that no cultivators or immortals were able to accomplish because only she was a special existence and she was the Great Beyond Goddess, the great goddess above all the great goddesses.
Ji Yuan simply could not find any weakness to attack even as he asked weakly, “What is it that you want with me?”
The Great Beyond Goddess did not answer Ji Yuan and instead she continued to stare at Ji Yuan for a while before she answered softly, “Did you hear me? You will get a Queen.”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan smiled weakly, “You don’t mean yourself, do you?”
The Great Beyond Goddess did not respond immediately but as Ji Yuan was thinking that she was only teasing him, she had suddenly returned a light nod. “Indeed!”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
It took a while before Ji Yuan started to regain his composure as he laughed, “For a moment I was almost fooled by you. Let me tell you. I will refuse you for two reasons. One, no one can force me to do what I don’t want to, no matter how beautiful you are. Two, I have my own manly principles to adhere to.”
The Great Beyond Goddess was smiling all of a sudden when she raised two of her fingers, “I can tell you two reasons why you will. One, Little Princess has already forced you to submit in the past and this won’t be the first time that you will submit…”
Ji Yuan quickly protested loudly as though his manly pride had been wounded, “That is different! Who says I’ve submitted to her? She may have my body but never my soul!”
But silently Ji Yuan was cursing; how did she know my past?!
The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly smiling, “Two, don’t you want to regain back your beautiful beard? Isn’t this something that you want to take back all this while? What if I can restore your beautiful beard?”𝒏𝚘𝑣𝔢𝓵𝞰𝔢xt.𝕔𝚘𝓂
Ji Yuan’s golden eyes were wild all of a sudden and he was suddenly trying to suppress his excitement, “Haha…is this for real?”
The Great Beyond Goddess smiled, “For real.”
Ji Yuan was laughing jovially, “My beautiful beard…”
Xiang Li was protesting loudly, “No! No! No! Big Brother!”
