The Romantic Cultivator

The Goddess Ai Tina had insisted that Xu Yifei accepted her ‘Divine Shield of Ai Tina’. 

Even though Xu Yifei felt uneasy about accepting this the Divine Shield of Ai Tina but in the end, she was forced to accept it as the Goddess Ai Tina insisted upon it and had said that this was her decree. 

Also, the Goddess Ai Tina was looking at her in a way that were full of sentiments and sincerity.

Especially when the Goddess Ai Tina had told her, “You are going to be my most worthy successor.”

This caused Xu Yifei to feel a little uncomfortable and even guilty in her heart conscious because Ji Yuan had told her not to believe in the Goddess Ai Tina anymore; it was because the Goddess Ai Tina had planned to kill her and Ji Yuan at the same time.

During their sentimental exchanges, Ji Yuan was clenching his fists as he said silently: Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, this Goddess Ai Tina is merely trying to confuse you so that you will help her to kill me. After this horrible deed of killing me is done, she will surely kill you and take back her immortal shield. You can’t use her immortal shield now anyway so this is merely a decoration for you….

Xiang Li interrupted Ji Yuan: Erm, Big Brother. If she gives her immortal shield to Maiden Xu Yifei then she can’t use it anymore, right? Then won’t her trump card be one less powerful to be used against you?

Fairy Anyang said as well: That’s right. I don’t really understand why give her powerful immortal shield away? Maybe she has another trump card that can kill our lord here?

Xiang Li giggled: Her spirit talismans can kill my Big Brother already. 

Ji Yuan: …

He frowned to them: Whose side are the two of you on? Are you happy that I will soon be dead? The reason why she gives her trump card away is because she is trying to cause a division between Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and I. This is a more deadly trump card than her immortal shield! 

Xiang Li had suddenly said: But she really looks so friendly…

When she had said that, she had suddenly appeared outside of Ji Yuan’s soul sea, causing Ji Yuan, the Goddess Ai Tina and even Xu Yifei to be alarmed! 

Xiang Li giggled, “Big Sister, how are you?”

Xu Yifei had already known of Xiang Li but she was still surprised because she had not expected Xiang Li to appear to greet the powerful Goddess Ai Tina. Moreover, she knows that Xiang Li is the Goddess’ Tear as well.

Ji Yuan was stupefied because Xiang Li had an order from him not to come out of his soul sea and she had rarely do so.

The Goddess Ai Tina was looking quite startled as she looked at Xiang Li, “I know you. You are the Goddess’ Tear?”

But she quickly asked, “What is your name?”

The reason why she had quickly skipped her question was because she had suddenly remembered that the Goddess Tear would not be able to remember anything about the Goddess’ Tear.

She just did not know that Xiang Li was now able to remember but she could not acknowledge it due to her restrictions. 

Xiang Li answered happily, “Big Sister, my name is Xiang Li. You have a nice scent and I seem to know you somewhere.”

Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily to himself: Xiang Li! Now is not the time to woo the maidens! And she is evil and she wants us all dead!

The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded as she looked at Xiang Li and her eyes had become bleary; she had been trying to suppress her emotions when she had suddenly realized that Xu Yifei is her bloodline. But now when she also realized that this Xiang Li is the Goddess Tear, she could no longer suppress her emotions within her heart.

“Yeah… a long, long time ago, we are friends…”

Xiang Li was delighted, “Really Big Sister?” 

The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded, “You are more beautiful than before.”

Actually, the Goddess’ Tear hardly changes her appearances but she was just praising Xiang Li.

Xiang Li was delighted and she was giggling, “Then you don’t hurt my Big Brother, alright?” 

The Goddess Ai Tina took a sudden look at Ji Yuan before she smiled wryly to Xiang Li, “Of course not. Why should I? He is our Great Spiritas Hero.”

Xiang Li was extremely delighted, “That is good! Xiang Li is happy now!”

Ji Yuan was almost ready to dig a hole in the ground to cover himself from the awkwardness that Xiang Li had brought to him; it is because Xiang Li is just too naïve to trust an enemy. She is too young, too simple!

The Goddess Ai Tina quietly looked at Xiang Li with mixed emotions; her cultivation had shown a massive improvement due to the Goddess’ Tear and before the Goddess Tear had vanished from her soul sea, her profound skill with the spirit talismans were strengthened tremendously and she managed to accomplish what no other spirit cultivators would be able to do.

At the same time, the Goddess’ Tear had also manifest into a white blue shield as a final augment of her final wish. 

And the Goddess Ai Tina had called this white blue shield as the Divine Shield of Ai Tina and it was to be her most powerful weapon against the divine lords. 

But today, she had actually given her most precious Divine Shield of Ai Tina to Xu Yifei, because she wanted to tell her but cannot tell her at the same time that she was someone very important to her. 

And she hopes that this Divine Shield of Ai Tina would protect Xu Yifei just like her friend the Goddess’ Tear had protected her in the past.

In the past, Xiang Li was known as another name; it is because after the Goddess Tear has used up her powers, she will restart everything again by forgetting about the past. 

The solo purpose of the Goddess’ Tear is to appear before the desperate kind souls to give them a hope. This is the endless samsara of the Goddess’ Tear and her destiny.

The Goddess Ai Tina had never thought that today she would be seeing her old friend again.

Then she was suddenly weeping emotionally as she fell down weakly onto the snowy ground and soon her soft weeping cries could be heard.

This startled Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and Xiang Li.

Xiang Li panicky asked, “Big Sister, why are you crying? Xiang Li is pained to see you just like this.”

Ji Yuan was completely stunned; she is crying when she sees Xiang Li?! 

Xu Yifei was thinking quietly: It is true that our Goddess Ai Tina had found the Goddess’ Tear in the past and she has since overthrown the tyranny rule of the divine lords.

The hot tears of the Goddess Ai Tina continued to surface on her beautiful countenance as she wept uncontrollably and she was continuously trembling. 

It was because she had once gone through a long and emotional journey with the Goddess’ Tear together. There were too many days of terrible darkness in those days when the divine lords ruled the city-states of the Spirit Divine Realm and they had wept tears of bitterness together almost every night. 

When she had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, she had purposely left behind the Divine Shield of Ai Tina as a hope for the people in the Spirit Divine Realm. Because the Goddess’ Tear was her hope in her darkness hour. 

But she had never suspected that she would be betrayed by the Legendary Spiritas Hero Achilles when she had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm.

Everything that she knows about the Greater Spirit Realm is but a big lie! 

In the end, she is the greatest sinner of the Spirit Divine Realm that she had once tried her best to save from the decadent ways of the divine lords!

When she saw Xiang Li, she had completely broken down.

Xiang Li, do you know that if your Big Brother does not die then I will surely die…

At least I can’t die yet until I have found the True Devil God… because… 

Ji Yuan was at a loss as he thought: Erm, she doesn’t look like she is acting. Am I mistaken about her? I am actually mistaken about a lot of maidens in the past… if so, this will be so awkward to my face… especially when I have already warned Xu Yifei about her Goddess Ai Tina… 

But he suddenly said to himself with a silent chuckle: No wait. This ought to be her bait for me. Unfortunately for her, I am too smart to fall for her trick. Woe to her, the person that can bait me has not yet been born yet. Haha…𝞸𝑣𝓁𝐞xt.𝗇𝓔t

When Fairy Anyang had heard him, she rolled her eyes with disbelief…

Xu Yifei was gasping softly all of a sudden as she thought of something: Since the Goddess Ai Tina wants to ask the whereabouts of the True Devil God and Ji Yuan is the True Devil God reincarnation, does this means that Master Ji Yuan is not lying to her when he says that the Goddess Ai Tina is trying to kill him? 

She was thinking: If I can stop the Goddess Ai Tina from obtaining this question, does it mean that I can also save Master Ji Yuan?
