Chapter 563

After returning home, Jiang Yan saw Little Ningguang and the other three little ones sitting in a row, each gnawing on a Sunset Fruit.

"Master!"

"Master is back!"

When Jiang Yan pushed open the door and entered, Little Ningguang and the other three little ones shouted with surprise.

"Mm, where is your Master's wife?"

Jiang Yan asked Little Ningguang and the others with a smile.

"Master's wife is washing up in the washroom."

As soon as Little Ningguang finished speaking, Little Ganyu poked her head out from the washroom.

"A-Yan, have you eaten?"

Hearing Little Ganyu's question, Jiang Yan shook his head.

"Not yet."

"Then wait a moment, let me finish tidying up and I'll heat the dishes for you."

As Little Ganyu spoke, the sound of clattering came from inside the washroom.

"No rush, no rush."

Jiang Yan hurriedly said; this girl had become much more impatient since getting pregnant.

Coming to Little Ganyu's side, Jiang Yan gently wrapped his arms around her.

"I'll heat the food myself; take your time, no need to rush."

While speaking, Jiang Yan also lightly kissed Little Ganyu's pink, soft lips.

"Mm, okay."

Little Ganyu's face turned slightly red from what Jiang Yan did; seeing Jiang Yan about to kiss her again, she hurriedly stopped him.

"Don't fool around, Little Ningguang and the others are still outside."

"Hehehe, it's fine, they can't hear us."

Seeing the person in his arms look so shy, Jiang Yan couldn't help but chuckle lightly.

"Is Nahida still sleeping?"

Recalling that he hadn't seen Nahida among the little ones he just saw, Jiang Yan asked Little Ganyu with some confusion.

"Mm, since you brought her back today, she woke up twice, but for most of the time she has been in a state of sleep."

Little Ganyu nodded, explaining the day's situation to Jiang Yan.

The first time Nahida woke up was when Jiang Yan handed her over to Little Ganyu; Nahida woke up for just a moment.

The second time was after the little ones had prepared a room for Nahida.

Nahida had just slept on the bed for a short while when she opened her eyes in a daze.

Originally, Xiao Shaluo was still cleaning in Nahida's room, but as soon as Nahida woke up and saw a stranger, she was so frightened that she immediately curled up in a spot.

This scared Xiao Shaluo too.

Afterwards, no matter how Xiao Shaluo comforted her, Nahida just hid in the corner, eyes teary and head bowed, unwilling to come out.

She clearly remembered that her brother had brought her out.

But now, a strange Living Environment, strange people.

Her familiar brother and sister-in-law were gone.

Did her brother not want her anymore?

This situation only eased when Little Ganyu came up.

After Little Ganyu explained the Living Environment here to Nahida, the relaxed Nahida fell asleep again.

It continued until Jiang Yan returned.

Listening to Little Ganyu recount the day's events, Jiang Yan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Little Nahida can sleep so much?

It felt like this could no longer be explained by soul exhaustion alone.

"A-Yan, go up and check on little Nahida later."

"I feel that since Nahida took human form, something has been a bit off."

"Even if it is soul exhaustion, she shouldn't sleep for an entire day."

Not only Jiang Yan, but even Little Ganyu felt that there seemed to be something mysterious about Nahida.

"Mm, I'll go up and check right now."

Jiang Yan nodded with a serious expression; at this time, Nahida had just taken human form, so anything could happen.

"Okay, you go, I'll heat the dishes for you."

Little Ganyu nodded.

"You've worked hard."

Jiang Yan gently stroked Little Ganyu's blue, fluffy hair, speaking in a soft tone.

"Alright, hurry up and go check on Nahida!"

Little Ganyu gently pushed Jiang Yan, shoving him out of the washroom area.

After being chased out of the washroom by Little Ganyu, Jiang Yan walked toward the second floor.

Before the little ones went to sleep, their doors were basically all left open.

So Jiang Yan found the room where little Nahida was located very quickly.

Gently pushing open the door, Jiang Yan saw little Nahida.

At this moment, little Nahida looked like a little bun wrapped in a quilt, looking (abbh) super cute!

Arriving before Nahida, Jiang Yan looked at her sleeping, adorable appearance, yet his brow furrowed.

Under his current observation, Nahida showed no abnormality whatsoever.

In fact, one could say that Nahida was currently in an extremely healthy state.

That just didn't seem right!

Logically speaking, if Nahida were in a healthy state right now, she shouldn't be this drowsy.

But Jiang Yan's perception was generally reliable.

If Jiang Yan's perception wasn't wrong, then it proved that Nahida's current state couldn't be probed through perception alone.

Jiang Yan extended his hand, and the Soul Gem lit up.

A faint yellow fluorescent glow gradually shone onto Nahida's body; at this moment, Nahida's soul was being carefully examined by Jiang Yan.

It really did let him detect a slightly off spot!

In a corner that was hardly easy to notice, a hairline crack was steadily expanding outward at a constant speed.

And this place was no ordinary place.

It was Nahida's brain region.

Although this crack kept expanding, overall it was extremely tiny.

How tiny, exactly?

Jiang Yan's initial broad examination had actually failed to detect it!

If Jiang Yan hadn't later conducted a thorough sweep, he really wouldn't have discovered this thing.

It was probably this little thing that kept Nahida in that groggy, half-dreaming, half-awake state.

Jiang Yan withdrew the Soul Gem's detection energy and slowly closed his eyes.

Then, within his mind, the Goat Talisman activated.

Before determining what had caused this crack, it was better for Jiang Yan to be cautious.

What Jiang Yan had to do was leave no hidden dangers behind!

He had to pull out the weeds by the roots!

Afterwards, Jiang Yan's soul body entered Nahida's body and began carefully examining that tiny crack in Nahida's soul-head area.

"Mm... let me take a look..."

Jiang Yan shrank his soul smaller and smaller, until it was the same size as that crack in Nahida's mind.

When Jiang Yan was the same size as this crack, he finally understood why it had appeared.

Specifically, this didn't count as a crack.

Earlier, when Jiang Yan's energy and the World Tree's chaotic energy repelled each other, Jiang Yan's intervention at that time caused the World Tree's energy to be defeated and expelled.

But a portion of it still remained within Nahida's body.
