Chapter 554 Peach Blossom: Oh no, I've become a goddess substitute?
In the vast river of life, there is an invisible iron law that exists between species.
Although lions and tigers are both kings of the cat family, they have found it difficult to produce a dynasty that can last.
Whales and dolphins swim together in the deep sea, yet the boundaries of their bloodlines are clearly distinct.
This is reproductive isolation, an order established by the Creator, a natural barrier that maintains the independence of species.
However, fairies, these peculiar beings born from primordial power, are outside of these rules.
They are nature's darlings, and also exceptions to order.
As long as it possesses the breath of life, whether it is a bird soaring in the sky, a fish swimming in the abyss, a plant rooted in the earth, or even a human walking in the mortal world, the fairy can combine with it to give birth to a new life.
This is both their greatest gift and the root of their chaos.
……
The seductive words of the primordial goddess, like the gentlest poison, slowly spread in Tao Yao's ears.
A tiny muscle on Tao Yao's cheek twitched uncontrollably.
This reason...
Thinking about it carefully, it does seem... pretty good?
Can be with anyone...
The scope of "anyone" is far too broad.
For example, there's that silly girl, Hiyori, who always likes to get close to me.
Or perhaps, a seemingly aloof Shiloh who has always been thinking of him.
The thought flashed through her mind for a moment before Tao Yao forcibly extinguished it.
No.
We mustn't let her lead us astray.
This is definitely a trap!
It was a pie in the sky, a promise made to make him willingly take on this mess!
Having figured this out, Tao Yao forcibly suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and spoke calmly.
"Regardless of what benefits fairies might bring."
There was a hint of detachment in her voice.
"None of these are reasons for you to leave a mess for me to clean up."
"Since you are the original goddess, I think you should know very well how troublesome those fairies are."
“Each of them has serious psychological defects.”
"You created these children yourself, and now you're leaving them all to me to raise. Do you think that's appropriate?"
Despite Tao Yao's almost accusatory questioning, the smile on the face of the Primordial Goddess did not diminish in the slightest.
He remained as nonchalant as ever, even taking it all for granted.
With great power comes great responsibility.
"Although I created the entire fairy world."
"But in reality, a bug appeared after that that I never imagined."
He shrugged, his posture elegant, yet he uttered the most irresponsible words.
"I've thought about dealing with it, but I just feel powerless."
"So, I was forced to find you, Tao Yao."
These words caused Tao Yao to frown slightly.
"You mean you're incapable of handling these bugs?"
"Yes."
The primordial goddess readily admitted it, even nodding as if acknowledging her own incompetence.
"Perhaps it's because...it's the first time creating a world, and I'm not skilled enough at it."
"So in fact, apart from a few relatively perfect finished products, most fairies have very serious flaws."
"At least, it's not as perfect as I imagined."
His voice carried a perfectly measured hint of regret, like that of a craftsman who had tried his best but still failed.
"And I have no way to solve these problems."
"At the same time, it's impossible to really destroy everything and start over, as Little End suggested. I admit, I don't have that kind of courage."
"So, I can only ask you for help, my most perfect masterpiece."
The primordial goddess's voice was full of sincerity, as if she truly placed all her hopes on Tao Yao.
However, Tao Yao simply watched him quietly.
I watched it for a long time.
Then, she spoke softly.
Do you think I would believe that?
This calm rhetorical question silenced the air amidst the sea of flowers.
The "sincerity" and "helplessness" on the face of the primordial goddess slowly froze under Tao Yao's gaze.
After a while.
He suddenly let out a clear, silvery laugh.
"Alright alright."
The laughter subsided, and He spoke in an approving tone.
"As expected of the child I chose, she's not so easily fooled."
He stopped pretending and openly admitted it.
"Let me tell you the truth, Tao Yao."
"There are many things that I can solve."
"I just... simply don't want to get involved."
He said this with complete confidence and without the slightest shame.
"Since you think it's a mess, then it's a mess."
Anyway, I've already decided to hand everything over to you.
This complete abandonment of her attitude left Tao Yao speechless.
"You gave it to me without even saying you wanted it?"
"no way."
The primordial goddess retreated step by step, her figure becoming increasingly ethereal.
"Who told me that I'm just like you, essentially thinking the same thing deep down?"
"We all yearn for beauty and peace, but we also hate trouble."
"Alright, Tao Yao, it's time to end this."
His voice became grand and ethereal, as if coming from all directions, merging with the entire world.
"After this, you will inherit everything from me."
"All the fairies, including myself, will belong to you."
"This is a gift from the gods to the eldest daughter; you cannot refuse it, you can only accept it."
As the words fell, the figure of the primordial goddess completely transformed into specks of light and dissipated into the air.
Only one last sentence remained, echoing softly in Tao Yao's ears.
Finally, good luck!
"Goodbye."
The voice just fell.
Tao Yao then felt a vast, ancient, and pure power surging wildly into her body from all directions.
This power was not forcibly poured in, but rather, like a weary bird returning to its forest or a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, it naturally merged with her.
The aura she possessed, which was already infinitely close to divinity, underwent its final transformation at this moment.
That gentle tenderness, unique to Tao Yao and carrying a hint of languor and allure, was covered by a more magnificent, more compassionate, and more ancient divinity.
Her existence seemed to be completely connected to this primordial land and the entire fairy world.
In an instant, she could sense the breath of every fairy flower.
In an instant, she could hear the whispers of every demon in the distant world.
She became the new origin.
However, just as she was getting used to this new power...
Several powerful and chaotic auras appeared without warning around the sea of flowers, surrounding her completely.
Immediately afterwards, a voice filled with anger and questioning resounded throughout the entire Origin Land.
"Mother Goddess! You're not getting away today, you have to give us an explanation!"
