His mind was racing with thoughts. He looked back at Tian Ning and spoke again, "I know you are not her, but if you are willing to come with me, I will take you as my disciple, teach you many things, and give you countless rare treasures and magical artifacts..."
Tianning: "..."
Having lived for five thousand years, Tianqi naturally possesses countless such things.
He refused to believe that so many good things couldn't move the child!
"Need not."
Tian Ning didn't even think before speaking.
Tianqi: "..."
Tianqi earnestly advised, "You are still too young, and you may not understand how important it is to have a reliable and strong person protecting you!"
"You can't protect me,"
Tian Ning spoke the truth: "You were unaware that the Spirit Moon Goddess beside you spent a fortune and a hundred years to find my face, tear it off, and replace it with mine."
"You seem very powerful, and I'm sure you can protect me with you around, but doesn't your protection just make me a target, attracting countless venomous tongues from the shadows to attack me?"
"It's better to be strong myself than to protect others."
There is never any absolute protection; the one who is strong is Tianqi, not her.
Lingyue Goddess, who was secretly resenting the other party for being so important to Tianqi, never expected that this ignorant girl would dare to expose her to her face!
How dare she?!
Only then did Tianqi cast a glance at the Goddess Lingyue, but his gaze was devoid of warmth, filled only with killing intent.
"explain!"
The Goddess Lingyue finally opened her tightly closed mouth. Her mind raced, and she came up with countless excuses, ultimately deciding to deny it to the bitter end:
"Immortal Venerable, please don't listen to her nonsense. She only dares to act so recklessly because she has the same face as that person! She must be jealous of me being by your side..."
"No need for so much nonsense," Tianning sheathed her iron sword and prepared to leave: "Anything done will leave a trace. He has hands and feet; he can investigate on his own."
The Goddess Lingyue gasped for breath, raising her hands and feet—that was Tianqi's Achilles' heel!
However, Tianqi did not mind Tianning's words at this moment. Seeing that she was about to leave, he wanted to keep her.
"Don't go... I can give you anything you want, I..."
He, a man of words, had never lost his composure like this before. Instead of using his words to make them come true, he stepped forward and tried to take her hand...
Five thousand years ago he missed that person, but now he wants to keep this child—
Facing the person who came over, Tianning sighed inwardly and said, "My great-great-great-ancestor passed down a saying, which was probably for you."
She said, "Look ahead, don't dwell on the past. You've already escaped that quagmire."
After Tianning finished speaking, Tianqi was somewhat taken aback, but he still did not stop what he was doing.
This time, Tianning didn't waste any more words.
She clenched her fist decisively and, without any hesitation, punched Tianqi in the stomach, sending him flying ten meters away!
Everyone: "?!!"
The Goddess Lingyue screamed, "Heavenly Weeping Immortal Venerable!"
After doing all this, Tianning leaned back.
She lay down on the grassy field behind her, the chaotic scene before her eyes gradually fading away, and she left the Secret Realm of a Hundred Flowers.
This was an unexpected encounter; Tianning never imagined she would run into the other person again.
But it's good to let the other person give up their hopes; in this world, she is destined to have no romantic feelings.
She will then leave the Western Continent to participate in the final individual competition of the Six Sects Tournament.
