Chapter 2085 - 2081: Goddess

"If our paths diverge, we do not work together. Do you not even understand this principle?" Tantai Wanrong said.

Zhao Tianya looked angrily at Tantai Wanrong, seemingly blaming her for being a bit heartless, yet she chose to endure it. Finally, she stood up and left Tantai Wanrong’s residence.

Once Tantai Wanrong was sure Zhao Tianya had left, she sighed and said, "Ah, Tian Ya, I also hope you can understand that you must not regret the choices you make. How important Ye Fan is to you, only you know best. That you can try to extricate yourself, I already admire you. But standing from the position of being a sister, I certainly cannot support you in doing this. My own choice could never be as ruthless as yours!"

Tantai Wanrong seemed very tired; earlier, she was still cultivating, but now she didn’t even have the energy to cultivate.

Just then, two little girls came over to her. Tantai Wanrong could feel that Qin Mengyao and Yang Xiaoting had arrived at her doorstep by means of hidden flight.

"Auntie!" Once Qin Mengyao appeared, she no longer hid herself and directly leaped into Tantai Wanrong’s arms, while Yang Xiaoting, on the other hand, appeared calm, looking at the two as if they were sisters.

Tantai Wanrong embraced Qin Mengyao, stroked her little head, and chided, "Can’t you restrain yourself a bit? Understanding cultivation doesn’t mean using it recklessly. Don’t you know you should hide your sharp edges? If you want to come over in the future, just drive over like everyone else!"

"No way!" Qin Mengyao pouted, "Auntie, we’ve already started cultivating, how can we act as we did in the past? Now that we have such high cultivation, wouldn’t it be foolish not to use it?"

Those words made Tantai Wanrong’s expression seem a bit dazed as she pondered what Qin Mengyao said.

After a while, Tantai Wanrong said, "Actually, all we have now is just fleeting. Do you really think you need to spend a lifetime being a cultivator and pursuing other things?"

"We don’t think about those things. As long as Brother Fan can come over often and we can happily live together, that’s the best. Doing whatever we want, isn’t that the best?" Qin Mengyao said cheerfully.

Tantai Wanrong found herself unable to argue with Qin Mengyao. She realized her state of mind was quite different from this little girl’s. She thought, "Why can’t Tian Ya and I be like Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao, putting everything aside and living the life we want without being entangled by other matters? Look how happy Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao are now."

Yang Xiaoting also approached and timidly said, "Auntie."

"Are you here to see Ye Fan? He... he’s not here." Tantai Wanrong didn’t know what her nieces came for. The nieces had come over last night, and at that time, Ye Fan was still here. Now that Ye Fan had left, she didn’t know how to communicate with her little nieces.

Qin Mengyao shook her head, "Not at all, we came over because of Auntie’s matter. Auntie, didn’t you know Sister Zhao Jun came to us earlier, wanting us to help Brother Fan? We’ve prepared everything, but we still want to hear your opinion!"

"Oh," Tantai Wanrong was taken aback and said, "So Zhao Jun came to you too, and you agreed?"

"Mm, why wouldn’t we agree? We also want to help Brother Fan, doesn’t Auntie want to help Brother Fan? Auntie, you will go too, right?" Qin Mengyao asked expectantly.

"Mm!" Tantai Wanrong nodded and said, "Zhao Jun indeed came to me regarding this matter, and I also agreed. As for what this Array is, I’m not too sure, but I know this matter won’t harm Ye Fan’s interests. As long as you can work together... or rather, as long as we work together, we can surely help Ye Fan!"

Qin Mengyao laughed, "That’s what we think too, Auntie, you have to be clear, our skills aren’t that high. If we can’t be much help, we still need you to help a little... hehe!"

"You little brat! Don’t you feel it’s a bit strange in your heart, I mean going with Zhao Jun to help Ye Fan?" Tantai Wanrong appeared worried.

"We do worry too, but... some things aren’t like you said, Auntie, you should understand. We are now meant to cultivate and fulfill the purpose of helping Brother Fan, that’s our mission. In fact, Sister Zhao Jun is also a very good person. She came to help us cultivate together, and we’ve improved our cultivation. So, what are we worried about?" Qin Mengyao said naively.

Tantai Wanrong thought, "Still, Zhao Jun can really win people over. Seeing what she does for these two little girls, it’s clear why Tian Ya is so worried. Tian Ya is probably afraid of losing to Zhao Jun. But, then again, Ye Fan is not a king, nor is Zhao Jun a queen, so why think about fighting? Isn’t living a peaceful life a good thing?"

"Auntie, we also want to come over and cultivate with Auntie. Only then can we improve together. Besides, it’s really boring for us two at the university dorm, only at Auntie’s place do we feel a bit happier! This way, we can also find someone to talk to, Auntie, don’t you think so?" Qin Mengyao shook Tantai Wanrong’s arm, appearing very clingy.

Tantai Wanrong said helplessly, "You two little girls, whatever you think is up to you. Fine, I won’t say much to you. Just remember one thing: regardless of what happens, believe in yourselves, and also... trust in the care you can provide each other... As for Ye Fan, he will also protect you. Zhao Jun won’t harm you either!"

"What about Auntie then?" Qin Mengyao blinked her big eyes and looked at Tantai Wanrong.

"Me?" Tantai Wanrong’s expression showed a bit of weariness as she said, "I’m afraid I’m no longer capable of helping you much. You should know your aunt is almost getting old, perhaps not physically, but mentally aging. I can’t see issues like you young people do, my concerns and considerations are more complex..."

Qin Mengyao shook her head, "Auntie isn’t old at all, why would Auntie say you are old? Auntie should understand that no matter what you do, you are always young and vibrant. In our hearts, Auntie is forever a young goddess. Xiaoxiao, isn’t that right?"

"Mm!" Yang Xiaoting nodded, her expression also very determined.
