"Child, I've said it many times, my surname isn't A, it's Yang. But in the Six Realms, those with the surname A are no different from our Yang family... Oh dear, my surname isn't important. Time waits for no one, let's get down to business first." The old woman sounded quite anxious.
"Ah...so this old lady isn't an auntie, but...but I wonder what important business Auntie Yang is up to?" Wang Yao didn't know if the old woman was pretending to be stupid or was really hard of hearing. He stared intently at her, thinking to himself that since this old woman didn't want to be an auntie, he could just let her be an old lady.
"Hmm...you...come with me..." The old woman smiled slightly upon hearing Wang Yao's question, and took a shaky step forward. One hand seemed to slowly extend, but as if it were unintentional, it grabbed Wang Yao's arm and dragged him back to the tent.
"Hey, what are you doing? Ah... ma'am, men and women shouldn't touch each other. Let's talk things out, don't pull and shove like that, okay?"
This startled Wang Yao even more. He watched helplessly as the old woman's withered fingers reached out and he couldn't dodge them at all; she easily grabbed them in her hand.
However, the old woman seemed to have no ill intentions towards Wang Yao; she was simply holding his hand. Wang Yao called out to her, but he knew in his heart that he felt nothing unusual. Even so, Wang Yao did not dare to break free from the old woman's grasp.
"I'm old and my hearing is failing badly. Why are you yelling at me like that instead of doing your job? Hurry up and get things done with me. We can't waste any more time," the old woman said, turning to Wang Yao.
"Um... please... please let go, okay? What exactly do you want to do? Let's talk it over slowly." Wang Yao gestured to the old woman, indicating that his arm was being held.
"It's too late! Let's get this done quickly. As long as you behave yourself, I won't hold you hostage." The old woman smiled upon seeing this and actually let Wang Yao go.
Upon hearing the old woman's words, Wang Yao felt a chill run down his spine. Was this old woman friend or foe? "Damn it, if you have important business to do, just do it. Why are you keeping such a close eye on me?" Suspicion arose in Wang Yao's mind, and he pondered anxiously.
"Queen Mother of the West!" At this moment, the goddess in the tent bowed and called out to the old woman, while the Sea-Filling God beside her stared at the old woman with suspicion and uncertainty.
"Queen Mother of the West!" When these words reached Wang Yao and the others, it was as if they had been struck by lightning. The Queen Mother of the West was the most senior immortal in the Heavenly Court. Wang Yao had even asked her to be his life-extending avatar. How did she end up here? Moreover, the expression of the God of Filling the Sea was also very strange.
For a Mahayana practitioner, having a photographic memory is a basic quality. If she was certain that the old woman was the Queen Mother of the West, she should naturally have bowed and greeted her like a goddess. But why did she act as if she was doubting the old woman's true identity, staring at her incessantly?
“Little girl, don’t you recognize me? I’m old, but you haven’t changed at all! Let me think, how many years have passed since we last met…” The old woman was also staring at the God of Sea Reclamation, her expression becoming somewhat dazed.
"It's been almost ten thousand years! Just now, Ajuan told me that my great-aunt had arrived, and I was still wondering what it was..." The Sea-Filling God suddenly appeared beside the old woman. "Great-aunt, why did you take so long? You have no idea how they bullied me..."
The God of Reclaiming the Sea embraced the old woman tightly, tears streaming down his face as he spoke, just like children and grandchildren seeing a very close elder.
"So it's your aunt, not your maternal aunt." Wang Yao nodded silently.
"You little brat, stop crying. We told you to go to the Heavenly Court, but you insisted on staying in the God and Demon Realm. Now that you've suffered, who can you blame? Stop crying! If you don't want to stay in the God Realm, come back to the Immortal Realm with your grandma, okay?" The old woman, with tears in her eyes, kept nagging the God of Filling the Sea.
"No! I want to tear all those who have bullied me to pieces... Grandma, how... how have you changed so much..." The more doting the old woman was, the louder the Sea-Filling God cried.
"Grandma is old, everyone's appearance changes when they get old... Come on, don't cry, don't cry. Who bullied our little Wei? We'll make him regret it..." The old woman gently coaxed the Sea-Reclaiming God.
“Well… since you’ve reunited as family… let’s… let’s chat slowly…” After staring at the Queen Mother of the West and the God of Filling the Sea for a while, Wang Yao finally opened his mouth again and stammered.
As he spoke, he winked at those around him, intending to leave the tent first, leaving the old woman and the little girl to catch up.
"You little brat, why do you always want to run away? I have important business with you, you...you don't run away..." Before Wang Yao could finish speaking, he felt the old woman grab his arm again. The Queen Mother of the West was incredibly swift, and in the blink of an eye, she left the Lord of Filling the Sea behind and came to Wang Yao's side.
"Um... Auntie, please let go! I... I wasn't running away, I was... I was just making room for you two. It's been so long since we last met, so I'm asking you to..." Wang Yao hurriedly explained.
"Send me away? You child, do you want me to send you away or do you want me to send you away? What place are you asking for space? Is there somewhere in the Six Realms that I don't know about?" The Queen Mother of the West asked, gripping Wang Yao's arm tightly.
Wang Yao didn't know whether the Queen Mother of the West was being deliberately mysterious or intentionally joking with him, so he didn't dare to ramble on and could only helplessly point to his arm.
"Queen Mother of the West, I did not say I would send you away. I was... I was asking you to let go."
"Once you've made room, don't worry about it anymore. I won't see you off. I'll personally help you take care of what's in front of you. Little Wei, I'm going to take care of my business now. I'll come back to see you later..." The Queen Mother of the West turned around and called to the God of Filling the Sea.
