Chapter 415
The space opened, and eight weapons appeared on the table from the Chuansong Sect.
Each weapon carried a faint fluorescent glow, a sign of its own extraordinariness.
"Wow!"
Little Ningguang and the others widened their eyes, looking at the weapons before them with sparkling gazes.
"These weapons look so pretty!"
Little Linghua said from the side.
"Come, pick out your own favorite weapons."
Jiang Yan laughed heartily, speaking to the little ones before him.
"Eh? They're for us?"
Little Ningguang looked toward Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan rubbed Ningguang's little "three-three-three" head and said:
"Of course, otherwise why would your Master go through so much trouble to bring back so many weapons?"
"No, no, this is far too precious."
Beidou's face flushed red, looking completely at a loss.
She felt that her Master giving her a place to stay and teaching her knowledge was already more than she could ever repay.
"What are you saying."
Jiang Yan lightly flicked Beidou's forehead, his eyes carrying a helpless look.
This little Beidou — her heart was just too sensitive.
But then again, it made sense — a girl who had been wandering all along, if her heart weren't a little sensitive, how else could she have survived?
"I am your Master; giving you weapons to protect yourselves is only natural."
"However, after you choose your weapons, you won't be able to use them right away."
"I will train you accordingly based on the type of weapon you choose."
"Once you meet the conditions to wield these weapons, only then will I place them into your hands."
Jiang Yan said, pushing the weapons before him toward the little ones.
"Then, little ones."
"Come and choose the weapons for your future!"
Jiang Yan said with a smile to them.
Then he looked toward Little Linghua.
"Little Linghua, if you also have a weapon you like, you may pick one as well."
"Eh? Me too?"
Kamisato Linghua was clearly stunned hearing Jiang Yan's words.
She hadn't expected that she could also pick a weapon.
After all, she was not Jiang Yan's disciple.
"Of course, after all there are quite a lot of weapons here."
Jiang Yan said with a smile.
"Mm... better not."
Little Linghua clearly hesitated for a moment, and ultimately still declined Jiang Yan's kind offer.
After all, the sword art she practiced was the Kamisato family's Iaijutsu Style, and the only one here suited to her was that Skyward Blade.
But Little Linghua felt there was no need to choose a weapon right now — she was too young, and even if she chose one, she wouldn't be able to use it.
Jiang Yan saw Little Linghua refuse, but didn't say much more.
After all, this was Little Linghua's own choice.
Afterward, the three little ones — Ningguang included — also began choosing their weapons.
Ningguang's eyes landed at once on the artifact Morax had crafted on the spot.
She looked toward Jiang Yan, expectation in her eyes.
"Master, may I choose it?"
Jiang Yan smiled and nodded.
"Of course you may."
This was also the weapon Jiang Yan felt was the most suited to Ningguang.
You see, for a catalyst character, an artifact possessing a shield identical to Morax's was simply a divine-tier existence.
After all, the sense of security the Geo Archon provided was in a league of its own across all of Teyvat.
"Thank you, Master!"
Ningguang happily took up that Celestial Star Lock. (Its appearance is sneakily similar to the Catalyst of the Sacred Sakura — an original creation of this book; because Morax used a miniature celestial star as its core, it is called the Celestial Star Lock)
And Beidou and Little Shenhe's choices were also quick.
Beidou focused on martial cultivation, so she leaned toward two-handed greatsword-type weapons.
In the end, she chose the Wolf's Gravestone.
Because compared to the Skyward Pride of the Skyward series, the Wolf's Gravestone looked a bit more Added Heaviness.
And Little Shenhe chose the seemingly lighter Calamity Queller.
At this moment, Jiang Yan looked toward Kamisato Linghua again.
"Little Linghua, are you really not going to choose one?"
"I feel the Skyward Blade suits you quite well."

Jiang Yan picked up the Sky Blade and held it out in front of little Linghua.
Kamisato Linghua hesitated for a moment, but in the end chose to refuse.
Staying here these past few days had already been more than enough trouble for Big Brother.
If she accepted a weapon gifted by Jiang Yan, it would truly be far too improper.
The teachings Linghua had received since childhood would not allow her to do such a thing.
After all, she was not Big Brother's disciple, and she had also been constantly troubling Big Brother to look after her.
"You, ah..."
Jiang Yan looked at little Linghua with a helpless expression.
Since little Linghua didn't want it, he'd just put it away for now.
Jiang Yan spread his hand, a spatial entrance opened, and he stored those weapons back into the space carved out by the Space Gem.
"Oh? The rain's about stopped?"
Jiang Yan looked out the window; though the sky was still overcast, it was no longer raining.
Then he said to the few little ones beside him:
"Let's go, I'll take you out for a stroll."
"Being cooped up at home all day, you must all be dying of boredom, right?"
"Okay!!"
Hearing Jiang Yan's words, the four little ones immediately cheered and jumped for joy.
Clearly, a whole day of rain had driven these little ones stir-crazy.
Little Linghua's eyes sparkled brightly.
She really hadn't had a proper look around the city of Liyue yet.
You see, little Linghua had lived in Inazuma from childhood onward.
As for the other six nations, she had only occasionally heard people mention them.
Liyue Harbor, as the capital of Liyue, was also the commercial hub where the seven nations carried out trade.
As the nation of Geo and Contracts, everything about this place made little Linghua extremely curious.
Especially the Lantern Rite!
Linghua had only heard people talk about it, and what she knew was not much—very vague.
Having finally come to Liyue now, she naturally wanted to take this chance to have a good look at this capital city of Liyue.
"Then get yourselves tidied up, and get ready to set off!"
At Jiang Yan's command, the little ones all sprang into action.
Some changed clothes, some packed things up.
