Chapter 323

Years change, yet she remains unchanged.

Yes!

Whether one year or two, whether ten years or a hundred!

Little Nannan is always like this.

Most crucially, this little girl cannot remember her past; every so often, it seems as though she loses her memory entirely.

In the Shrouding the Heavens World, this Little Nannan has become synonymous with the bizarre.

And now...

Countless people in the Shrouding the Heavens World watched the Little Nannan within the image and couldn't help but swallow hard.

They knew there must be a great secret hidden within this little girl; otherwise, things wouldn't be this way.

Yet no one knew what lay behind this little girl, and in the end, no one paid it any mind.

Now, was Little Nannan's origin finally about to be revealed?

Countless people instinctively clenched their fists, watching everything unfolding within the image, their breathing becoming somewhat labored...

At this moment, within the image, one could see:

Ye Fan encountered Little Nannan.

This was also his first meeting with Little Nannan.

Little Nannan said she was hungry, looking pitiful.

Ye Fan could never bear such a scene; immediately, he bought a steamed bun for this little girl, then went to the Jade Cauldron Grotto-Heaven to visit friends!

The second encounter occurred after Ye Fan had saved Jiang Taixu, when he needed to obtain a sacred medicine from the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land due to injuries inflicted by the Great Dao's thirty-first tribulation.

During this second meeting, Little Nannan remained just as pitifully adorable.

However, this Little Nannan looked exactly the same as she did during their first encounter.

Ye Fan stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Do you have no relatives?"

"No, Nannan remembers nothing!" Little Nannan shook her head.

"You remember nothing at all?"

Ye Fan was stunned; then, looking at the little girl's appearance, he felt somewhat dazed: "Why would this happen?"

He asked, filled with uncertainty and alarm.

However, Nannan merely shook her head: "Nannan doesn't know either; it seems I've forgotten many things. I don't know where I came from or where I'm going. Everyone else has relatives; only I have none. Nannan is very lonely, very sad!"

Her eyes brimmed with tears, appearing utterly helpless.

"Shall I take you to get something to eat?" Ye Fan asked gently.

"Okay!"

The little girl immediately showed a hopeful expression: "Nannan is very hungry; I haven't eaten for many days!"

Ye Fan felt another pang of heartache.

Immediately, he took Little Nannan to enjoy a sumptuous lunch.

Afterwards, Ye Fan carefully examined her again but detected not the slightest abnormality.

This little girl seemed completely normal, no different from an ordinary person.

He felt somewhat alarmed and suspicious.

By now, he was already extremely powerful; there was no way he should fail to detect such an issue.

Yet, he simply couldn't detect anything...

Just at that moment...

"Big Brother, here for you..." After eating and drinking her fill, Nannan pulled a crystal-clear stone from her bosom, shimmering with seven-colored light, and handed it to Ye Fan!

"What is this?" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise!

"Nannan doesn't know either..."

Nannan shook her head: "Every time I forget my past, a stone like this appears. It's edible, very sweet, and can keep Nannan from feeling hungry for many days!"

The girl handed the stone to Ye Fan, saying with a smile.

Ye Fan examined it for a while, then shook his head, saying, "Nannan, you should keep it safely!"

However, the little girl kept stepping back, shaking her head and saying, "Big Brother, please take it; otherwise, Nannan has nothing to repay you with!"

Ye Fan sighed lightly.

Seeing that the little girl refused to take it back no matter what he said, he could only accept it.

Seeing Ye Fan stand up, seemingly about to leave, the little girl grabbed the corner of his clothes, looked at her slightly hole-ridden shoes, and whispered in a barely audible voice, "Big Brother..."

Ye Fan's spiritual sense was keen; naturally, he heard it, turned around, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"I..."

Little Nannan felt somewhat nervous; she bit her lip, then anxiously whispered in a soft voice, "Can I follow you?"

Ye Fan was stunned...

Little Nannan became somewhat panicked and quickly said, "Nannan is very well-behaved; I can wash clothes, mop floors, and learn anything!"

"I have matters to attend to..." Ye Fan sighed.

"Oh, Nannan understands..." Nannan lowered her head in disappointment, slowly turned around, and prepared to leave!

Ye Fan quickly spoke up: "I haven't finished yet! I'm very busy and afraid I won't be able to take proper care of you; if you can stay here for a while, I'll take you with me when I depart!"

"Really?" The little girl immediately became joyful, lifted her head, her large eyes full of brilliance.

"Let's go!"

Ye Fan smiled and took Little Nannan to the small inn beside the tavern belonging to his classmate Zhang Wenchang.

And he instructed Zhang Zhang Wenchang to help take care of things.

Immediately, Ye Fan went to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone!

He suffered a Dao injury, and only a Saint Medicine from the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone could resolve it.

After entering the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone, his life force constantly drained away; in the blink of an eye, he became an old man!

Even the Qilin Divine Medicine seed in his hand began to wither.

Ye Fan's heart chilled.

Yet, at that very moment, the stone given by Little Nannan erupted with terrifying vital essence, instantly entering his body, restoring his vitality, and even causing Ye Fan to cease suffering erosion by time!

"This..."

At this moment, Ye Fan was shocked.

That he could survive was actually due to a stone given by Little Nannan?

Just what background does this Little Nannan have?

Meanwhile, countless people watched everything unfolding within the Great Dao Golden List...

They were also astonished!

"What exactly happened to this Little Nannan? How can that colorful stone possess such terrifying vitality?"

"Good heavens, it actually allowed Ye Fan to withstand the erosion of the Life Forbidden Zone; this stone is simply comparable to a Saint Medicine!"

"What an heaven-defying young girl! What exactly happened to this young girl that she possesses such a thing?"

"She looks like an ordinary young girl, yet one somehow feels this young girl is not ordinary!"

"Do you think it's possible that, like the Old Madman, she went mad for some reason... and that Little Nannan, due to some great calamity, lost her memory, was cursed, or something else, and that she herself is actually some supreme powerhouse from ancient times?"

"Damn it, that possibility isn't zero; anyway, I feel this Little Nannan is terrifying!"

"Indeed terrifying; one cannot see through her, cannot see through her!"

"She must be a Great Emperor; otherwise, there would be no need to release her, right?"

At this time, countless people discussed, as the matter of Little Nannan shocked innumerable others...

Forgetting the past.

And possessing such a colorful stone on her person.

It was simply heaven-defying...

Meanwhile, within the Shrouding the Heavens World, countless people witnessing this scene were also shocked.

That eerie young girl actually possessed such a terrifying stone?

That was simply indistinguishable from a Saint Medicine or Divine Medicine!

Countless people were filled with shock and uncertainty.
