The Romantic Cultivator

Ji Yuan pulled the unknown statuesque maiden along with him because she was cringing onto him and no matter how hard he had tried, he just could not shake her off.

He could only mutter as he faced the hostile looks of his party, “Look, it isn’t what all of you think. I really can’t shake her off. Moreover, I don’t even know her name.”

Ling Feiyue hummed softly, “Just because you have a handsome face doesn’t mean that you can flirt with just anyone.”

Ji Yuan protested weakly, “Actually, I am more than just a handsome face-“

“Other than his handsome face, he has no other substance.” Shui Xisi interrupted out of the cold.

Little Princess agreed, “And he is infamous as an old miser.”

Ji Yuan: …

I am an old miser?!

Is this a class discrimination now?

Are they saying that they are only interested in my good looks only?

At least Maiden Feng Minyue and Maiden Yu Jingjing don’t think this way. Their impression of me is way better.

All of a sudden his golden was frozen when he saw that Maiden Feng Minyue and Maiden Yu Jingjing were nodding in agreement with Little Princess.

What about my lovely Qianfeng?

Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden, “Other than his lecherous look, I can’t think of anything good about him.”

Ji Yuan: …

I would have a lecherous look?!

He turned to the statuesque maiden to ask awkwardly, “So, what is it that you like about me?”

It was just a random question so he did not expect her to reply him anyway.

But she replied with a smile, “You are a lovely man. The loveliest man that I’ve ever seen.”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Why is that everyone just commenting on my looks and not my real merits?!

This is an insult to my pride!

But he quickly shrugged his shoulder as he rubbed his chin with pride as he thought to himself: Oh well, alas, I know that I am really handsome but I cannot help it. Hahaha…

Xiang Li chuckled in his soul sea, “Yes, Big Brother is the most handsome and I love my big brother!”

Ji Yuan laughed: Haha, I love my Xiang Li as well.

Anyang rolled her eyes as she sighed, “My lord, you are really hopeless.”

But she muttered silently in the next instant and her eyes were beaming: Yes, he is really handsome and lovely…

All of a sudden several golden lights had flashed into the golden hallway that Ji Yuan and his party were in and had startled them.

Immediately a golden portal had appeared in front of them and the voice of a female spirit entity echoed, “Welcome to the final trial of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, the Trial of the Righteous.”

Ji Yuan was startled as he muttered, “The Trial of the Righteous?”

Mo Bei was smiling, “This is just the trial that is meant for me.”

Ji Yuan scoffed at Mo Bei, “Are you suggesting that I won’t pass this trial?”

But he quickly laughed aloud, “To think that I will be able to reach the last trial of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth on my very first attempt. I must be a genius cultivator.”

“This isn’t the last trial yet.” The voice of the female spirit entity echoed.

Ji Yuan was startled, “This isn’t the last trial yet? What do you mean? If this isn’t the final trial then why are you here?”

“I am afraid.” The female spirit entity simply said.

“Who are you afraid of? We can’t hurt spirit entities anyway.” Ji Yuan returned a perplexed look.

The female spirit entity refused to answer Ji Yuan and instead she answered nervously, “In order to qualify for the last trial, you will need to obtain the key of righteousness from the Trial of Righteous.”

The reason why the spirit entity was afraid was because of the presence of the Great Beyond Goddess who could actually hurt the spirit entities in their incorporeal forms.

Ji Yuan nodded as he asked again, “Is this a group or an individual trial?”

The female spirit entity answered, “This is an individual trial.”

When she had said that, the maidens in Ji Yuan’s group looked disappointed and were all cursing softly; they wanted to be with Ji Yuan even though he was really very badass and insolent in the trials.

Ji Yuan was also looking quite disappointed as he did not want to be separated with any of the maidens.

But this is a trial and he had to accept the nature of the trial in order to move ahead.

So he sighed softly as he turned to look at the maidens, “I am ready to enter the trial. Are you all ready?”

Ling Feiyue too, was sighing softly. “We are always ready.”

Shui Xisi nodded, “This is just like any other trial. Do we even need to get ready? By being in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, we are all prepared for the trial.”

She was actually just mouthing brave words but in actuality, she was reluctant to be parted away from Ji Yuan.

The rest of the maidens were all nodding.

Mo Bei grinned, “I am also ready.”

Ji Yuan returned a nonchalant look at Mo Bei when he had heard him as though he did not care.

He turned a look at the statuesque veiled maiden in his embrace, “Erm, I am going to take my trial now. Do you know that even if you cling onto me, we will still be separated in the very end? Are you prepared to take the trial as well?”

But the Great Beyond Goddess simply looked at Ji Yuan and her expressions were a blank.

Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, “I may want to take the trial but I can’t enter the portal with her. What if she meets up with an incident inside the trial and loses her life?”

He was imagining desolate monsters inside the golden portal and all kinds of horrors that were inside.

“No one will lose their lives inside this trial.” The female spirit entity answered him.

Ji Yuan was immediately overjoyed; that means that no harm will befall to any of his dear consorts and lovers either.

“Haha, that is so good to hear.”

Ji Yuan’s spirit was aroused immediately as he whispered to the statuesque maiden in his arm, “Well, you have heard the trial spirit. So I am stepping into the golden portal now. Unfortunately, we have to part after this.”

He knew that this astonishing beautiful immortal cultivator would not be able to complete the Trial of Righteous in her present state.

Although he was reluctant but he was also glad at the same time. It was because he could not risk his group should she regains her consciousness all of a sudden; she is simply too dangerous.

“Don’t leave me…” The Great Beyond Goddess pleaded with Ji Yuan and her beautiful starry eyes seemed to have the power to melt hearts.

But Ji Yuan’s heart was as hard as stone as he dashed into the golden portal; he had only one main objective and that was to complete this trial and to aid Jiajia quickly.

There was a brilliant flash of golden light as Ji Yuan entered through the golden portal.

The bright lights continued endlessly and there were a lot of commotions.

When Ji Yuan’s visions had cleared, he was quite startled to find himself seated in a throne and he was facing hundreds of people.

Where am I?

One person in front of him addressed respectfully, “My king, this is time for you to make your royal decisions.”

Ji Yuan was startled: I am a king?! What royal decision?𝒏𝚘𝑣𝔢𝓵𝞰𝔢xt.𝕔𝚘𝓂

Then he laughed, “Since I am a king, where is my queen?”
