Chapter 425: Parting (Please Subscribe!!)

Unknowingly, time quickly arrived at the day Little Ningguang was to leave Liyue.

After all, having skipped home for so many days, her family missed her greatly.

Staying in Liyue forever was not a solution; after all, this was not Little Ningguang's home.

She couldn't possibly marry into Liyue, could she?

The afternoon when Little Ningguang left Liyue was calm and sunny.

Jiang Yan personally escorted her to the dock.

Little Ningguang looked back at every step, holding tightly to the hem of Jiang Yan's clothes, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at him and said:

"Brother Jiang Yan... I can't bear to leave you..."

These few days of companionship could be said to be the most comfortable days Little Ningguang had ever had.

With Brother Jiang Yan, Little Ningguang did not need to worry about so-called etiquette and could play without restraint.

No one cared about her "370" identity, and no one watched her every moment.

Little Ningguang felt it was truly extremely comfortable here.

She really found it hard to part with this big brother who had only spent a few days with her.

Rather than saying she couldn't bear to part, it was more that in these short few days, Little Ningguang had already grown accustomed to the feeling of Jiang Yan being by her side.

Now that they were about to separate, Little Ningguang naturally felt her heart filled with sadness and reluctance.

Seeing the little girl before him pouting pitifully, Jiang Yan smiled helplessly.

Little Ningguang couldn't bear to leave him; how could he bear to leave her?

However, he could not show any of it, otherwise, Little Ningguang would only be even more reluctant to leave.

Jiang Yan reached out, rubbed Little Ningguang's snow-white hair, revealed a smile, and comfortingly said:

"Little girl, there is no need to be so sad; every parting is for a better meeting in the future, isn't it?"

"If there is a chance in the future, I will bring Little Ningguang and the others to Inazuma to visit you."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Little Ningguang nodded vigorously.

"Mm, mm! When Brother Jiang Yan and everyone come to Inazuma, I will definitely treat everyone well, just like Brother Jiang Yan took care of me here!"

Just at that moment, the ship moored at the shore sounded its horn, signaling preparation for departure.

On that large ship, an adventurer from Inazuma poked his head out and spoke loudly to the passersby below:

"The ship bound for Inazuma is about to depart; relevant personnel should hurry aboard and not miss the time."

Jiang Yan looked down at Little Ningguang.

If he remembered correctly, Little Ningguang was to take this ship to Inazuma.

Hearing that the ship was about to depart, Little Ningguang raised her head, her eyes filled with reluctance.

She knew that once she boarded this ship, she would no longer be an ordinary little girl free and without any restraints.

After returning to Inazuma, she would have to settle her mind, return to her previous day-after-day life, and once again become the Young Lady of the Kamisato family.

"Alright, the ship is about to depart; go quickly."

Jiang Yan said gently.

"When you get home, remember to apologize properly to Mom and Dad; this time you ran away on your own, so your parents must be worried sick."

"Mm, I know."

Little Ningguang nodded; afterwards, Jiang Yan took a jade pendant made of Shiluo from his chest and handed it to Kamisato Ayaka.

"This is a jade pendant I made specifically for you; inside, I have set up a perception restriction."

"If you encounter danger, use it to call me."

"No matter where I am, I will come to your side immediately."

Jiang Yan spoke in a gentle voice.

"Eh? Then can I use this to contact big brother often?"

Jiang Yan smiled and shook his head.

"This only provides me with the coordinates of your location after you call."

"I cannot hear you speaking."

"Moreover, because the jade pendant is relatively small, the energy it can contain is very little, so, Little Ningguang, try not to use it unless it is a critical moment."

"And this, you take it as well."

Jiang Yan took out a dragon-shaped bracelet carved from wood.

That's right; this was after Jiang Yan summoned a wooden dragon using Wood Release, using the Monkey Talisman to transform it into the shape of a small dragon.
