The Romantic Cultivator

Ji Yuan, Mo Bei, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were back in the hallway of the Jade Mansion again.

Mo Bei sighed, "It is a pity that the trial has ended for us. May your trial rewards be your lucky occurrence. Farewell now."

Yu Jingjing nodded quietly, "Farewell now…"

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "Farewell…"

All of a sudden Yu Jingjing had suddenly drawn close to him and she had given him a kiss on his cheek.

This stunned Mo Bei and startled Feng Minyue.

"Please don't get the wrong idea." Yu Jingjing said melancholy to Ji Yuan. "This is just for all the aids that you've given me for this trial. Without you, I may not even be able to overcome this trial. And thank you for avenging my honor against that despicable Tang Yumen who had outraged me in front of so many cultivators."

With a second lingering look, she had suddenly sped off and disappeared quickly.

Ji Yuan was still blinking and staring after her as he touched his cheek; he could not believe that Yu Jingjing had just kissed him.

He began to mutter almost incoherently, "Maybe in your celestial fraternity, it is alright to kiss someone else's cheeks but in my celestial fraternity, kissing the cheeks of a man means that you're going to be his consort…"

Mo Bei too, had walked off while murmuring. "There is no way that my charms are lesser than this rascal. I am after all, a rich and handsome bachelor…"

Ji Yuan was still staring at the corridor that Yu Jingjing had disappeared from view when Feng Minyue had suddenly tiptoed in front of him and kissed him gently on his lips.

This caused Ji Yuan to be stunned and his heart was pacing hard.

Feng Minyue smiled shyly, "Don't get me wrong too."

Without explaining herself, she had walked off while leaving Ji Yuan stunned with disbelief.

He was suddenly touching both his cheek and lips at the same time.

"Why did Maiden Feng…kiss me all of a sudden?"

Xiang Li shouted excitingly, "Big Brother, you dumbass! She likes you of course!"

Ji Yuan stammered, "But did she just say don't get her wrong? What this supposes to mean?"

"I'm very, very sure that she likes you. Go bang her, Big Brother!" Xiang Li giggled while clapping her hands.

Ji Yuan: …

"Xiang Li, I need to talk to you about your abnormal and outrageous behavior. It is about time that we have a little talk about it…"

"But Big Brother, she likes you! Can't you tell?" Xiang Li giggled.

Ji Yuan frowned. "I really can't tell, you know. What if I take a misstep? You should know that my reputation is currently very bad at the moment."

Xiang Li chuckled, "I wonder when Big Brother has ever got a good reputation in the first place?"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

"You know Xiang Li. Let me remind you something. I am the MC of this story and not you. Don't screw me up with your poor assumptions."

Xiang Li returned a perplexed look, "I am not the MC?"

"Of course you're not. You are just my sidekick." Ji Yuan laughed. "And I am the one that is getting the harem and not you."

Xiang Li began to giggle silently; But I am the one that is collecting Big Brother so I am the MC…

Ji Yuan was laughing to himself, "What a wonderful day. Today I have gotten the kisses from two of the most beautiful maidens in this trial. This is better than any rewards. Not even the S Rank Trial can match this…"

Ji Yuan had now entered through the portal to claim his S Trial reward and he was now saying to the dark spatial space. "Now, this S Trial better to be good or I will really be very, very disappointed."

The Trial Spirit answered him coolly, "Didn't you say that your two kisses are better than any rewards? Then why are you having such a high expectations for your S Rank reward?"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan replied shamelessly with a big frown, "Did I say anything like this?"

The Trial Spirit: …

The Trial Spirit: …

The Trial Spirit: …

"I am going to give you a reward then you have to choose whether to go to the next level or into the limbo. There is no option for you to remain on the 4th level because this is your second trial that you've cleared already."

Ji Yuan laughed, "I will naturally choose to go to the 5th level of course. My destiny is on the 6th level or so say the Diviner Mo Ming."

"You know. Even though this S Trial is a little tough so far but you have to agree that I am a genius among geniuses, am I right? Or else I won't be standing here."

The Trial Spirit: …

Ji Yuan continued to chuckle, "Even though I know that you've been working to trap me and is waiting to mock me for my missteps but I am too brilliant to fall into any of your traps. Therefore it is only fitting that you shall reward me with something awesome."

Anyang Xiayou turned to ask Xiang Li in secret, "Is he really your master? He is a little too masochist."

Xiang Li giggled back in secret, "That is my awesome Big Brother alright!"

Anyang Xiayou sighed in secret as she wondered if she was making the right choice for her future before she morphed back into the Trial Spirit that was now speaking to Ji Yuan, "Alright then. I will promise you that your reward will be the most awesome ever."

"Really?!" Ji Yuan chuckled. "That will be so awesome. What is it? Don't keep me in the suspense! Haha."

The Trial Spirit echoed alluringly, "I shall grant you a sentient spirit entity for your immortal-step divine sword."

She had actually wanted the saintly divine sword to host her spirit but Xiang Li had insisted to her, "That saintly divine sword is mine. If Big Brother dies at least I can still dwell inside it and help to avenge my Big Brother in the future. As for you, you can take the immortal-step divine sword."

An immortal-step divine sword was still a godly existence for her so Anyang Xiayou agreed readily.

Ji Yuan was startled and was gasping, "I have a living spirit entity for my immortal-step divine sword? That is too awesome. That means that I've two sentient living spirit soon."

But he was soon growling, "Why don't you grant me a sentient spirit entity in my saintly divine sword instead? Isn't it a better reward instead?"

Xiang Li shouted secretly to Anyang Xiayou, "NO!"

The Trial Spirit appeared to sigh before saying, "Your saintly divine sword is too impure hence I can't."

Xiang Li: …

Ji Yuan frowned as he rubbed his chin to ponder immediately, "Previously my saintly divine sword is home to Xiang Li. It must be her impure spirit that is causing this. Xiang Li is seriously too impure…"

But he was soon laughing as he shouted excitingly, "Xiang Li! Look! Later, I will introduce you to a new friend. Haha."

"Um…where is Xiang Li? Why isn't she responding? She must be sleeping again. She really got a fragile heart. She must be upset that I've declared that she isn't the MC. Never mind. I can surprise her later with a new friend."

The Trial Spirit announced, "Then it shall be granted to you…"

"Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan suddenly shouted a hold.

The Trial Spirit: ???

"Is my sentient spirit a male or a female?" Ji Yuan asked anxiously.

"Is this a concern to you?" The Trial Spirit almost burst out with laughter.

Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Of course it is! My Xiang Li is a vulnerable and sweet maiden. She is also gullible as well. If it is a male sentient spirit then my Xiang Li will be too vulnerable to abuses."

The Trial Spirit: …

Actually your Xiang Li is anything but vulnerable…

Xiang Li was greatly touched by Ji Yuan as she nodded in secret; Yes, I am really a vulnerable maiden…

The Trial Spirit said bitterly, "Don't worry, your new spirit entity is a female. Are you satisfied now?"

"Hold!" Ji Yuan said again. "The new sentient spirit entity isn't you, I suppose? If so, I don't want as well. As you know, you have tried to rip me off in this trial. What if you try to rip me off later?"

The Trial Spirit: …

This man has so many demands…

Xiang Li was giggling and she was nodding; that is my Big Brother alright.

Ji Yuan pointed out, "Spirit entities have to obey a sacred spirit law and they can't lie you know. So answer me honestly."

Ji Yuan was right of course and this suddenly put Anyang Xiayou in a big dilemma because she had to answer him truthfully.

But Xiang Li suddenly giggled, "You're the trial spirit here but outside of here, you're Anyang Xiayou and no longer represent any trial. Therefore you can answer my Big Brother that it won't be the Trial Spirit that will be his new spirit entity."

Anyang Xiayou was rolling her eyes; this Xiang Li was too shameless! Where did she learn all these from?!

But she quickly said to Ji Yuan, "Don't worry. Your new sentient spirit won't be related to the Trial Spirit."

Yes, once she is out of here, she won't be a Trial Spirit and won't be related to the Trial Spirit.

Ji Yuan looked extremely pleased and satisfied. "Well I guess that this will be my S Trial reward then."

He was muttering with a grin, "Well, it is better that my new sentient spirit entity be an innocent Lolita as well..."

Anyang Xiayou completely ignored his murmuring and pretended not to hear...

The Trial Spirit opened two portals, one yellow and one blue. "The blue portal will lead you to the next level while the yellow one will lead you to the limbo where you will stay until the end of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

Ji Yuan laughed as he walked toward the blue portal, "I will pick the blue portal of course, haha."

As Anyang Xiayou watched Ji Yuan walked toward the blue portal, there was a sudden regret in her heart as she thought; is this the right decision? Why is it that I feel that both Xiang Li and Ji Yuan are both undependable all of a sudden…
