As soon it had become apparent to Ji Yuan that he was not dying, he was laughing jovially and he had even slapped Shui Xisi on her butt, much to her annoyed astonishment.
Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were also startled too but they were even startled when Shui Xisi was only feeling annoyed and did not feel offend by the spanking act; there was no outcry about her loss of modesty.
From her casual look, it looked like this was not the first time that Ji Yuan had touched her butt.
They guessed that there may be something going on between the two of them.
âHaha, I feel a little stronger now. But actually, I donât really feel a thing?â
Shui Xisi muttered weakly, âAre you expecting the effect of the Dao Fruit to be so pronounced? Stupid Ji Yuan.â
Ji Yuan continued to laugh jovially, having restored his mood.
âYou know, if a cultivator is too stupid, I am afraid that even the cultivator is to obtain the Dao Fruit, it is still futile to have it,â Shui Xisi said softly.
Ji Yuan: âŠ
What the heck? I will be stupid?!
After I have banged you, letâs see who is the stupid one. Haha!
But he quickly said silently: Thank you, SisiâŠ
Xiang Li whispered to Anyang: Just a minute ago, Big Brother is looking so depressedâŠ.
Anyang pointed to Xiang Li: That is the depressing feeling of betrayal by a love oneâŠ
Ji Yuan frowned to them: Do you think I didnât hear you? I trust my Sisi 100%! Who says I am depressed just now? I am just thinking how nice she is for giving it to me instead of taking it for herself. HahahaâŠ
Xiang Li, Anyang: âŠ
Aura was suddenly saying with great delight: This Dao Fruit⊠is helpful to me⊠thank you⊠massterrâŠ
Ji Yuan was surprised, and did Xiang Li and Anyang: Erm, glad it is useful to my Aura⊠what did you do with it? And how does it help you?
Aura giggled softly: I use it⊠as my spiritual fertilizer.
Ji Yuan, Xiang Li, Anyang: âŠ
But on the other hand, Beitang Hai and Wang Gongzi both had an ugly expression; it was because Hu Butao had won the right to have the Dao Fruit and he had also consumed the Dao Fruit but at the same time he had exploded himself and had also met with his own demise.
While they were arguing if the Dao Fruit was real or not, it seemed to them that Ji Yuan had found a real Dao Fruit and Ji Yuan had consumed it.
This naturally caused them to be green with envy.
Hua Yunzi was quite relieved that Ji Yuan was actually alright after eating the Dao Fruit and by now she knows that this Maiden Shui Xisi was not trying to harm him.
But she was feeling strange why this Maiden Shui Xisi did not consume the Dao Fruit herself and she had instead given it to Ji Yuan?
It was obvious to her that Ji Yuan did not have the ability to discern the real from the fake Dao Fruit and that only Shui Xisi knows.
Even if Maiden Shui Xisi has taken a Dao Fruit before but it is perfectly alright to take another to consolidate oneâs cultivation foundation. Moreover, the Dao Fruit is able to add 3000 years to the cultivatorâs life. This alone is enough to make the holy lands fight aggressively for the Dao Fruit to prolong their lives!
Ji Yuanâs team was now down to 6 as they continued their way to the mountains.
There were many spirit herbs along the way and even a Dao Fruit but no one had the mood to pluck them when Shui Xisi shook her head and said, âThese are all fakes.â
Finally, after another 10 hours, they saw a shimmering black portal below the mountains.
Without a doubt, this was the final end point.
Wang Gongzi and Beitang Hai were looking quite relieved that they had finally reached the end point and they had flashed down the slope of the mountain in a hurry; in this level alone, they had lost more cultivators than the other levels.
They just did not have a good experience for this level!
JI Yuan inhaled deeply, âSo it is now farewell for now until the final trialâŠâ
Shui Xisi asked him softly, âYou look anxious?âđđŹđŁđŹđđ”âŻxt.đđđ
Ji Yuan waited for Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu to walk ahead of him before he turned to sigh woefully to her, âIndeed I am. I am anxious for Ling Feiyue, Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu⊠this level alone has a temptation that is unlike the other levels. You know how greedy Ling Feiyue and Lu Jiangsu can be; they just pluck everything regardless of the consequences. They wonât suspect that these Dao Fruits may be fakesâŠâ
Shui Xisi was also saying quietly, âI hope that they will be alrightâŠâ
Ji Yuan sighed bitterly, âIn this trial, I may have lost more friends and soul mates than in the other trialsâŠâ
Wang Gongzi and Beitang Hai bowed were the first to have reached the final trial. They then turned around and bowed with their hands to Ji Yuan and to the rest before stepping into the shimmering black portal.
A while later, Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu, Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan had also reached the bottom of the mountain where the shimmering black portal was.
Ji Yuan had suddenly said to Hua Yunzi, âMaiden Yunzi, shall I speak to you for a minute in private?â
Shui Xisi hummed coldly before she stepped into the dark shimmering portal, âFarewell, Ji Yuan!â
Xie Hongyu bowed her hands to Ji Yuan, âThank you, Great Saint Ji Yuan for your aid in this trialâŠâ
Then with a flushed look, she had stepped into the shimmering dark portal too.
Now it was only Hua Yunzi and Ji Yuan.
Hua Yunzi curiously looked at Ji Yuan, âYes?â
Ji Yuan sighed softly, âI want to ask you⊠that night⊠when you have left⊠did something happen between⊠the two of us?â
Hua Yunzi was startled by this question as she stared blankly at Ji Yuan for a while.
Then she quickly regained her composure to smile coyly, âNo.â
Ji Yuan muttered, âIs that soâŠâ
Hua Yunzi had suddenly turned around to walk away and at the same time she was heard saying, âFarewell and thank youâŠâ
All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grabbed her tender wrist. âMaiden Hua YunziâŠâ
Hua Yunzi lowered her head and she was trembling, âGreat Saint Ji Yuan, if you want to woo a maiden, this is not the place. Donât forget that we are in the midst of a trial. Also, I will never like you. I am a dirty harlot of the Evil Cultivation PalaceâŠâ
Ji Yuan interrupted her with a grin, âNo, you are not a dirty harlot in my heart. You are yourself and Hua Yunzi. And I think of you as a friend too.â
Hua Yunzi was shaken as she muttered slowly, âWe are⊠friends?â
Ji Yuan nodded firmly as he held onto her wrist, âNaturally we are friends and I donât many friends.â
Hua Yunzi was trembling, âYou donât need friends. You need confidants and you have plenty of them. For example, Maiden Ling Feiyue and Maiden Shui Xisi. Maybe to you, I am merely a backup in case you lose them to a trialâŠâ
âMaybe you are a confidant too,â Ji Yuan grinned.
Hua Yunzi shook free of Ji Yuanâs hold on her wrist before she hummed coldly, âMaybe yes. Maybe no. Or never will it beâŠâ
Then she had flashed into the dark shimmering portalâŠ
Ji Yuan was left alone to ponder, âShe is lying⊠about that nightâŠâ
Xiang Li asked curiously: Big Brother, how do you know?
Ji Yuan frowned: Because I can tell cos I am an expert liar myselfâŠ
Anyang nodded: Well, she is lying for sure.
Ji Yuan laughed: See Xiang Li! Even Anyang agrees with me on this!
Anyang giggled softly: I saw you banging her that night, so I know that she is lying.
Ji Yuan: âŠ
What the heck? And you didnât tell me?
Anyang giggled; You didnât ask me, my lord.
Xiang Li bitterly said: How come I didnât know about this?
Anyang laughed softly: The drinks that she brought that night can even knock down a fairy spirit and I was knocked down after a while too but not before I see what had happened.
Ji Yuan was gasping: So, I was not merely having a wet dreamâŠ
â
â
â
The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit in the Spiritas Tower was now furious that she was unable to kill Ji Yuan on the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.
âJi Yuan, you may have made it through the fourth trial but I can promise you that you wonât make it through to the fifth trial!â
Ji Yuan and his team were actually the first team to have completed the fourth trial, three days ahead of the others.
Elsewhere, there were still many teams on the level 1 and level 2.
None of the teams have actually made it to the level 3 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris yet.
There was one team that was closed to the level 3 and Ling Feiyue was in that team.
