Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were now in another section of the dense iron woods.
Although they were exhausted from their fights with the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha, they were not seriously injured.
At the same time, Ji Yuan had a feel weird feeling as he followed the Goddess Ai Tina.
It was because he had sensed no animosity from her during their fight against the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha and she looked quite determined to protect Xu Yifei from harm.
This was a battle that she could easily have caused the both of them to perish while she could take the opportunity to flee.
But instead, she had fought hard and had even used her trump cards.
Or rather, she had even given one of her best trump cards the Divine Shield of Ai Tina to Xu Yifei.
That divine shield alone can cause Ji Yuan several big headaches if she uses it for herself as it may create an opening for her against him when he is attacking her.
As they traveled together, It felt a little weird to him that the Goddess Ai Tina would suddenly ask Xu Yifei to tell her more about her family background.
As Xu Yifei did not feel that there was anything wrong in this. Moreover, she could feel strongly that the Goddess Ai Tina had protected her with her 8th immortal defensive spirit talismans during their last battle as well.
And she was someone that could repay a debt in kind.
So, she answered, "My mother consort is a very beautiful maiden. She had me when she was 11 000 years old after she had fallen in love with a scum, which was my father. He abandoned her to court a divine consort. Maybe my father is a celestial scum after all. I do not know..."'
There was a woeful look in her enticing eyes and this made Ji Yuan even more guilty; this was all the reason more why he should not reciprocate her feelings for him. The end result was very obvious to him because he would definitely abandon her just like her father did. And then he would be the same detestable scum in her eyes.
Better to be a scum now than a real scum later.
Xu Yifei said woefully, "My mother consort was killed by the rebels while protecting me when I was very young. She could not fight back the rebels because my grandfather had once forbidden her to cultivate and he had put a restriction in her soul sea…"
"In order to avenge my mother consort, I have to become a divine consort to fight the rebels. Luckily for me, my scum of a father also has a daughter by the name of Tang Manni through my step-divine consort mother Tang Li. My step mother consort Tang Li is also a kind mother and she treats me like her very own daughter and she had given me all the necessary cultivation resources to cultivate along with my step-sister Tang Manni."
"But eventually she was chosen for her eventually ascension to the Greater Spirit Realm. To this day, I still miss her so much. And I actually hope to see her one day again in the Greater Spirit Realm."
Then she turned to look at the Goddess Ai Tina with a smile, "Do you know my step mother consort Tang Li?"
The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded and she was trembling lightly; she has naturally known Tang Li because she is really a great beauty. In fact, she was chosen by her six masters for ascension and they had rigged her chance to be selected by the Spiritas Tower.
In the Greater Spirit Realm, Tang Li has now become an eternal harlot of the 6 masters and it is all because of her sins.
Xu Yifei was delighted, "Then how is she? I'm sure that my Sister Tang Manni will also be delighted to have news of our mother consort."
The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly and her eyes were emotional, "She is well. And she is also cultivating good. She is also popular too in the Greater Spirit Realm."
Xu Yifei was delighted, "This is good. I hope to see my mother consort one day too. And thank you too for eradicating the rebels for my soul of my real mother consort."
The Goddess Ai Tina did not know what to say to her; it was because she had eradicated the rebels so that she could gain for herself the free cultivation resources that the divine consorts would be giving her later and not because she wanted to do any good.
But indirectly, she had somewhat avenged for the death of her dead daughter.
But she was suddenly angry when she had suddenly thought of something, "Who is this grandfather of hers? Why did he put a restriction on your mother consort to prevent her from cultivating? Your mother consort should have a heaven-defying talent!"
Xu Yifei was startled by this outburst.
"I don't know the name of grandfather. But that's what my mother consort had told me. Maybe he isn't even my real grandfather. My mother consort never talks about her parents because she said to me that she didn't know them at all. As for how she knows grandfather put a restriction on her, this was told by a servant to her who had saved her from the attacks of a divine lord in the past. But unfortunately, this servant had perished shortly after as her wounds were too severe."
Xu Yifei added with a woeful look, "My mother consort has always said that she is an orphan."
The Goddess Ai Tina was suddenly sobbing tearfully and she had hidden her face by turning away.
Xu Yifei was stunned that the Goddess Ai Tina was weeping over her family tragedy.
Ji Yuan who had been listening to Xu Yifei's accounts on her family heaved a heavy sigh, "Isn't this obvious? Your great divine consort, she is your grandmother."
Xu Yifei was stunned, "This is impossible…"
She did not have the chance to finish her sentence because the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly embraced her and she was weeping aloud, "My grand daughter Yifei… I'm so sorry… this is all my fault… I didn't want to abandon… my daughter who is your mother consort…"
Xu Yifei was stunned and her lips were trembling, "The Goddess Ai Tina is… the mother of my mother consort…"
"Achilles lies to me… he must be the one that put a restriction on my daughter… he is too vicious!"
Ji Yuan said awkwardly as he shook his head while walking away, "I'll go and scout ahead first. The two of you should have a little chat first… before we continued on our way."
