Ji Yuan tried to suppress his excitement, “You can really help me to get back my beautiful beard back, restored as before and even more beautiful than ever before?”

The Great Beyond Goddess nodded with a curtsy smile, “Indeed I can.”

Ji Yuan laughed heartily, “In that case then I shall…”

“You shall receive your wish.” The Great Beyond Goddess smiled in respond as she lifted her fingers.

“Wait a minute!” Ji Yuan interrupted her with a frown. “I didn’t say that I will agree to that.”

p The Great Beyond Goddess was startled and so was Xiang Li.

Xiang Li gasped with startled expressions, “Big Brother, didn’t you say…”

Even the Great Beyond Goddess was greatly startled, “But you just say…”

Ji Yuan interrupted them as he replied nonchalantly, “I am just rejoicing that I may get my beautiful beard back but I didn’t say I want to get my beautiful beard back.”

Xiang Li, Great Beyond Goddess: ???

Ji Yuan explained with a soft sigh, “If I want to get back my beautiful beard, do you agree that I can get it back anytime?”

Xiang Li was perplexed, “How Big Brother? You’ve never share with me…”

The Great Beyond Goddess wavered a little before she recomposed herself; she had instantly understood what Ji Yuan had just said.

If he had wanted to regained his beautiful beard which was the one that he actually desired the most, all he needed to do is to make a wish since he had already understood that Xiang Li was the Goddess Tear and he can make a wish to regain his beautiful beard. But he had firmly resisted this.

Rather, he had decided to shoulder upon the great shame of not having a beard in his cruel celestial fraternity and be subjected to ridicule than be tempted to wish for his beautiful beard to be restored back.

“I may not know who you are.” Ji Yuan continued, “But I can see that you are trying to make me to make a wish from Xiang Li. Is that what you are trying to do?”

Xiang Li suddenly had a blank expression; anything that is related to her as the Goddess Tear or as a hint, she will not remember or be able to hear it.

Ji Yuan took a quick glance at Xiang Li and as he sighed softly; poor Xiang Li…

The Great Beyond Goddess was quiet; it was because Ji Yuan had struck bull-eye on her intention.

Ji Yuan continued coolly, “I will never do this because I don’t want to lose Xiang Li. Compare to Xiang Li, my beautiful beard means nothing. For Xiang Li, I can even throw away my manly pride and ego. Therefore, you can’t move my heart. It is something that I have already decided.”

The Great Beyond Goddess slowly nodded, “Just like you will not want to lose your Jiajia even though you may have the chance to regain your beard, am I right?”

Ji Yuan displayed a frown, “You even know this?”

The Great Beyond Goddess slowly nodded, “Even when everyone else thinks that otherwise, you have stubbornly hold upon your beliefs and refused to abandon her even though she had you believed that she was undeserving of you.”

“She is never undeserving of me.” Ji Yuan interrupted with a loud chuckle as he recalled their first meeting together at the information guild.

Meeting Jiajia for the very first time had suddenly revived his interest in women again after he had buried it for hundreds of years.  Prior to that, there was rumor that he was actually only interested in men and he had badmouthed all the beauties of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity every time someone mentioned a well renowned beautiful cultivator.

But the truth was that Ji Yuan was extremely comfortable with Jiajia because he thought her as the most beautiful maiden that he had ever seen and mostly importantly, her cultivation was actually below him!

That was what gave him the courage.

Although that turned out to be a great mistake after he had panicked, thinking that he would never seen her again after he was being chased by two saintesses, he still managed to cultivate to the saint level with whatever resources that he could muster. So that was still consider a fortunate event. His original plan was to wait another 500 years to cultivate to a saint.

Ji Yuan suddenly spoke up as he said to the unknown maiden goddess, “Let’s be frank and let me ask you this. Are you the Trial Spirit or not?”

The Great Beyond Goddess lied, “Naturally I am.”

She had suppressed the original trial spirit to officiate the trial. In a sense, she was not lying but this was actually not the whole truth.

Ji Yuan nodded cautiously as he raised his voice firmly, “In that case, I want my trial reward for passing this dream trial but this is not my wish. Although I don’t know how do you know about Xiang Li but this is what I really want.”

The Great Beyond Goddess had an unhappy look on her beautiful countenance. The main reason why she had appeared in this trial was to trick Ji Yuan in making his wish but it seemed that she had failed.

It seemed that she could not fool Ji Yuan…

After a moment of thought, she lifted her fingers to say. “You shall get your trial reward then…”

“Wait a minute!” JI Yuan had suddenly shouted.

The Great Beyond Goddess paused in her action with an annoyed look and asked, “What is it?”

Ji Yuan grinned like a badass as he rubbed his nose, “So you’re the Trial Spirit and therefore you’re incapable of lying. Just now you have said that you are willing to be my Queen?”

Xiang Li was instantly delighted as she clapped her hands, “Wow good. I am going to have a sister very soon! Where is Anyang? Is she still in a slumber? I must tell her that when she has woken up!”

The Great Beyond Goddess was jolted; she had said that in a jest but she had never expected this Ji Yuan to be so shameless as to raise this issue as a reward!

She slowly said, “That is only a joke. Please do not take it into heart…”

“It is a joke?! A Trial Spirit can actually lie?!” Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her with shock in his eyes.

But the Great Beyond Goddess merely smiled as she answered, “Unfortunately you have already reached the limit of your ability to obtain spirit animus. You should well be aware of this. You can only have one spirit animus at the sixth cultivation realm and another at the seventh cultivation realm. That is your limit.”

She did not lie and she knew that Ji Yuan was well aware of this fact.

The Great Beyond Goddess was smiling enchantingly now.

This caused Ji Yuan to groan almost immediately.

Surely not!

Ji Yuan was well aware of this fact but he was also quite shameless when it came to a trial and especially when it comes to a such a powerful spirit animus such as her.

“Hmph, who says anything about making you my spirit animus? I just want you to be my Queen. Isn’t that what you’ve just said?”

The Great Beyond Goddess looked a little startled. Indeed, that was what she had said earlier…
