Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The young prince stammered while plenty of sweat rolled down from his forehead as he continuously kowtowed. “My Lord, please... please spare my life. My... emperor father is... aged. His Majesty is... waiting for me to... return home...”
The Lord did not bother him. Mu Feng walked forward with a smile. “This is such a fruitful day! We not only got a real heaven’s gift disciple but also found a new prospect. Come on; let’s get a test done so that you can experience the feeling of being judged by a million people.”
He then threw the young prince up to the stage.
The young man peed in the pants out of fear. “I’m not... I’m really not... I was just careless with my words... My emperor father...”
“Stop talking about your emperor father.” Mu Feng interrupted. “Your emperor father still has many other princes; you’re not the only one who can serve him. You’re going to be his biggest pride if you’re a heaven’s gift disciple! Oh gosh, what’s the smell...?”
Mu Feng glimpsed at his wet pants. “You peed? Gosh, it seems like your gut is not that big either!”
The young prince was embarrassed and yet fearful to the extent he could not get up.
The Lord’s gaze returned to Gu Xijiu. “Test him.”
Gu Xijiu was speechless.
Did he not know it consumed a lot of spiritual power to activate the Spiritual Pillar? She had already lost a third of her spiritual power during the test earlier. If she tests the young prince again...
Did he think she was a robot? Moreover, she only agreed to test Huo Qifang. She did not promise to examine this random man.
Unfortunately, he was giving her an order with the identity of The Lord; she might get herself into trouble if she rejected his request publicly! Also, she was indeed upset with the young prince and wanted to teach him a lesson. Thus, she smiled as she suggested a condition which both of them understood. “Get rid of another day!”
The Lord gazed at her; he was surprised that she never forgot to ask some benefits for Long Siye. Back then, she vomited blood because of his ruthless. Secondly, she felt she had got Long Siye into trouble. Thus, her lengthy coma was probably due to the combination of guilt and regret in her heart.
Those days, she was often depressed. However, it was rare to see her having a good mood today as she finally found somewhere to release her tantrum.

He pondered. “Half a day.” The punishment for Long Siye to stay in the Mysterious Fireland was compulsory.
“Two hours!” Gu Xijiu tried to bargain because she did not want to miss any chance.
The Lord was speechless. That was the first time in his life to know someone who dared to negotiate with him. If it were someone else, he would have been thrown into space! However, it was her...
‘Fine!’
“Three hours.” The Lord said with a dull tone, “Nothing less than that!”
Gu Xijiu was finally happy; she decided not to cross the line.
However, Mu Feng and the rest did not seem to understand any of the content because they could not stop looking at each other.
‘What kind of silent riddle they were talking about? What did it have to do with one day, half a day, two hours, and three hours?’
The young prince immediately felt numb when Gu Xijiu glimpsed at him. All of his aura of arrogance instantly disappeared as he kowtowed to Gu Xijiu. “National Celestial Master...”
His tone was filled with entreat because he wished that Gu Xijiu could spare him from the test.
‘Women are always kind-hearted, and their hair is always more than their knowledge. Women should just stay at home to sew and serve the men...’ That was the mindset of the young prince. Thus, that was what he had to do to make Gu Xijiu feel sympathetic. Therefore, he could not stop seeking her forgiveness while he kowtowed.
However, Gu Xijiu remained silent as she watched him kowtow repeatedly.
