Just before the team continued their way in the lightning infested plain, Ji Yuan had grabbed Shui Xisi to whispered to her. "Sisi, I may not survive this trek across the plains…"
Shui Xisi was startled, "Huh! Don't say that please. You will survive…"
Ji Yuan shook his head as he said woefully, "I got a feeling that the trial is against me…"
Shui Xisi was exasperated, "This is pure rubbish…"
"No." Ji Yuan interrupted her. "I want to tell you how much I love you before I died."
Shui Xisi was suddenly flustered but she made a soft protest, "Not my Sister Feifei? That is your Jiajia?"
Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Jiajia as well. Haha…"
Shui Xisi hummed softly, "Alright then. You can let go off me now. They are walking further and further away now. We need to catch up with them now."
But Ji Yuan continued to grab hold of her as he whispered to her, "I want to sing you a song, maybe you can help me to bring it to Jiajia if I am not alive too…"
Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "You want to sing it for me or to my sister?"
Ji Yuan laughed softly, "Both… haha..."
Then he whispered softly to her.
?? ???????? ???? ????????,

?????? ?????? ???????? ???? ?????? ????????, ?? ??????'?? ?????????? ???????? ???? ???????? ??????????????.
Shui Xisi was stunned and she was bleary eyed from hearing this song, "This… I'll always remember this song that is for me…"
Although Ji Yuan was whispering very softly but as he was also singing quite emotional, even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu could hear his soft whispers as they were the next nearest to Ji Yuan; they had walked in front of Ji Yuan for now.
Xie Hongyu was thinking this was a really nice sentimental song and she could not help admiring the talent of this Ji Yuan. Frankly speaking, even her heart was moved by his beautiful looks...
All of a sudden she was quite startled when she saw that the face of Hua Yunzi was wet and that her golden eyes had turned red.
Hua Yunzi covered her face with one hand, afraid of letting Xie Hongyu saw her in this state.
This song had wounded her heart because it was exactly like Ji Yuan had said; she can't hold onto their tenderness and she has been waiting for the love that can never come. Moreover, he is like the wind and she cannot even get a promise unlike the lucky maiden that can make him pledge such a promise to him.
Unknown to Ji Yuan, his whispers to Shui Xisi were also heard by Destiny in the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City and her beautiful eyes had suddenly grown bleary; it took her considerable restraint not to weep her tears out.
The True Devil God had once said to her, "In this life I cannot be with you, maybe in the next life…"
Although this may be a broken promise but she has always remembered this. After all, she is an immortal and time flies in a blink for her.
She was imagining that Ji Yuan was actually saying this song to her.
And she wished that she was the maiden that had pledged herself as promise to him instead…
She began to wonder who this 'Jiajia' may be and what kind of a maiden she is.
This Sisi is the sister to this Maiden Jiajia…
She is already so peerless so this Maiden Jiajia must also be a heaven-defying beauty…
She quietly repeated the song that Ji Yuan whispered, "I'm bitterly still waiting for the warmth of your tender heart… but you flew so far away, I can't catch hold of your promise… But you are like the strong winds, I can't hold onto your tenderness… I have waited long for your love to renew… Never will we back to the past days…"
She had suddenly stood up and quietly left the divine temple.
This surprised the divine consorts and their female followers.
Destiny could barely control her woeful tears anymore and she needed to find a quiet place to cry her sentimental heart out.
Actually, Ji Yuan had wanted to sing this song to Xia Jiajia who was his Jiajia.
He slowly let go of Shui Xisi as he looked up at the stormy heavens, "I am now… ready to fight you…"
Unknown also to Ji Yuan, his Jiajia or the Great Beyond Goddess could hear him even though she could not intervene or communicate to him; it was because she had placed her true divinity sense in the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.
The Great Beyond Goddess was melancholy when she had heard Ji Yuan. It was because she really could not keep to her pledge to him anymore as Jiajia was now dead.
Indeed, they would never be able to return to the past days.
She could imagine Ji Yuan lamenting aloud when he had learnt that she was dead as he cried out, "I keep in mind, you have told me you would never ever leave from me…"
She had failed to uphold her promise to him.
As Jiajia, in the past she did not think that she would fall in love with anyone.
Even the prank that she had played on Ji Yuan with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue was just a prank to know him better.
It was not because she had fallen in love with him.
Although she had found a liking for him 100 years ago but she could not define it as love; it was because they both had vastly different cultivation backgrounds and Ji Yuan was renowned as a rascal and an arrogant young master while she had a more refined background.
She had to admit though, she had a sudden fasincation to his beardless look when she purchased his painting at the auction house in the past.
100 years ago when they had finally met, Ji Yuan had suddenly out of the blue asked her to wait for him for 100 years, she had surprised herself by agreeing to it.
If she had rejected him back then, then maybe things would be vastly different now.
And she had been so silly to even wait for him by founding the Emperor Hall Sect.
As the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice and the Great God Pangu, she was destined to be the Ruler of the Immortal Realm one day.
But now, that destiny had ended.
Everything was just a dream for her because she is the Great Beyond Goddess and she can no longer be with Ji Yuan.
It is extremely heartbreaking to her and she felt powerless about it.
The only link that she has with Ji Yuan is now the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that her Disciple Beiyuan had given to him…
"My Sister Sisi. In the future, please help me to take care of Ji Yuan for me…"
