Chapter 557: Take Little Ganyu Home! (Request Subscription!!)

The white, spherical cocoon continuously contracted, gradually coalescing before Jiang Yan into a tiny figure of light and shadow.

At this moment, in the windless space of the World Tree, it seemed as if a breeze had appeared—around the figure, clusters of flowers began blooming one after another.

The blossoms opened in perfect rhythm, forming concentric rings on the ground like floral garlands, as if welcoming something's arrival.

"Is it finally being born? Naxida!"

Jiang Yan murmured, stepping back to avoid disturbing Little Ganyu.

As the light and shadow swirled endlessly, countless petals rose without wind, spinning rapidly around the figure, faster and faster...

Finally, as if the light and shadow could no longer bear the pressure of the spinning petals, it exploded instantly.

And there, before Jiang Yan, appeared Little Ganyu's delicate, pure white body.

Jiang Yan's eyes widened instantly.

Oh no, this was bad.

He'd forgotten that after forming her body, Naxida wouldn't have clothes like she did as a spirit!

Jiang Yan raised his right hand; the Reality Stone glowed.

With a surge of energy, a child's outfit appeared in his hand.

Since he had no exact measurements,

Jiang Yan simply crafted the clothing based on the exact size of Naxida as he observed her with his eyes.

Soon after, a soft moan came—Little Ganyu's body had fully solidified.

She slowly descended from the air.

Jiang Yan moved swiftly, rushing beneath her and catching her soft, pure white form as she fell.

Gazing at the naked little body before him, Jiang Yan felt no improper thoughts—he quickly dressed her, then let her lie gently in his arms, waiting quietly for her to awaken.

Come on, how could he have such improper thoughts toward a little girl?

Jiang Yan thought that would be utterly absurd.

01 Although in his past life he'd once felt something for Naxida when she first appeared, back then he'd felt the same parental affection toward both Keli and Naxida.

Especially now, with this sweet, soft little Naxida in his arms, Jiang Yan felt as if his own daughter had just been born.

So happy!

"...... Mm, brother?"

At that moment, Little Ganyu moaned softly, as if dreaming something pleasant, her eyes fluttering open sleepily to see Jiang Yan gazing tenderly at her.

"How cute she is, like a little kitten."

Jiang Yan smiled at the innocent, drowsy expression on the little girl's face, gently pinching her cheek.

"Mm..."

Little Ganyu squirmed slightly, pressing deeper into Jiang Yan's arms, twisting until she found a comfortable position and settled against him.

"Alright, brother's taking you out now."

Jiang Yan gently stroked Little Ganyu's cheek, speaking softly.

"Okay~"

Little Ganyu clutched Jiang Yan's clothes tightly, her voice extremely gentle.

At this moment, she had not even the strength to speak—normally, after transformation, Little Ganyu should have been bouncing around energetically.

But now, she was not like that at all.

Perhaps because the transformation took too long.

Although Jiang Yan had arrived in time to infuse her with energy, the lingering fatigue from prolonged transformation remained.

This might be why Little Ganyu looked half-asleep.

Jiang Yan stood up, holding Little Ganyu, then the Space Stone on his right hand's dorsal side glowed—and before him,

a Chuansong Sect portal suddenly opened.

He had stayed here too long.

Since Naxida had successfully transformed,

it was time to take her to Liyue Harbor to live!

Jiang Yan had no hesitation—he stepped forward into the portal.

As the portal closed, the World Tree space returned to its long-forgotten silence.

Yet this time, the World Tree swayed gently without wind, a faint sound echoing through the space, as if whispering something.

At the Liyue Harbor docks, Jiang Yan's home.

In the living room, several little ones sat on the sofa, reading books in their hands.

Since they had just returned today, exhausted from the journey,

Gan Yu had not pushed the four little ones to rush into their studies.

They needed some proper rest.

Too much fatigue would stunt their growth.

Just as the little ones were engrossed in their storybooks, a Chuansong Sect portal suddenly opened in the center of the living room.

The little ones froze, then burst into joy.

"It's Master!"

"Mama, Master's back!"

As Jiang Yan stepped out, Little Ningguang and the other three rushed to his side.

As they drew closer, Little Ningguang noticed Jiang Yan was holding a child even younger than themselves.

"Master, Master, who is she?"

Little Ningguang, Little Beidou, Little Shenhe, and Shaluo all looked curiously at the sleeping Xiao Naxida in Jiang Yan's arms.

"Shh, she's my sister, now she's asleep, a little tired."

Jiang Yan extended a finger to his lips, making a hushing gesture.

Upon hearing this, the little ones all covered their mouths.
