"Easy, little one. Don't be afraid." Song Shuhang's primordial spirit cupped the little sprite crackling with electricity in his large hands and soothed it. If his physical body had been here, this little current wouldn't even have made his fine hairs stand on end. In the end, his primordial spirit was somewhat less sturdy than his flesh.
Under his reassurance, the little sprite slowly recovered its composure.
"You're Xiao Dian, right?" Song Shuhang asked.
Although it hadn't crawled over through the network cable, the Space Gate and the fair-skinned arm he had just seen, combined with Soft Feather's mention of the Heavenly Emperor in their earlier private chat, gave Song Shuhang a pretty good idea of what had happened.

"Why did Xiao Dian come through a Space Gate?" Black-Skinned Soft Feather emerged and asked in confusion.
"It was probably the Heavenly Emperor." Song Shuhang gently stroked the electrified little sprite. "Xiao Dian, I'll be counting on your hard work for a while. Once I finish trading with the seniors, I'll pick out some treasures that suit you
