"What's your name?"

After hesitating for two and a half seconds, Jiang Yuan walked straight forward, came up to the girl, crouched down, and asked gently.

The girl lifted her head and met Jiang Yuan's eyes for a moment before saying softly, "Na'er."

Since she was already here, he might as well make the best of it.

Since the Silver Dragon King had come knocking, there was no avoiding her.

He could only hope she would show some restraint out of fear that this was Spirit City, the Angel God's territory.

Besides, Na'er was Na'er, and Gu Yue was Gu Yue. The two could not be lumped together.

"Na'er, where are your parents?" Jiang Yuan asked, looking at Na'er while already knowing the answer.

In truth, he was also very curious what sort of identity the Silver Dragon King would arrange for herself.

Na'er silently lowered her head and slowly shook it.

Jiang Yuan suppressed the emotions in his heart, turned back to the Palace Guard who had come to receive him, and said, "Go look into how she appeared in Spirit City. If you find her family, notify them to come to Spirit Hall to claim her."

Hearing Jiang Yuan's words, Na'er lifted her head and gave him a startled look. When Jiang Yuan's gaze shifted over, she hurriedly lowered her little head again, hiding her emotions.

The Palace Guard said with some difficulty, "Your Highness, this requires the elders' approval."

"Just say it was my order. If anyone has questions, have the consecrators come find me. She's only a child. What kind of chaos could she cause?"

Jiang Yuan waved his hand and led Na'er toward the Consecrated Hall.

Seeing this, the Palace Guard behind him showed a troubled expression. In the end, he sighed, gave a few instructions to the people hidden in the dark, and quickly followed Jiang Yuan's footsteps.

"So, on your first day out, you picked up an orphan and brought her back?"

Jiang Yuan had only just brought Na'er home when he ran straight into Qian Renxue, who had clearly been waiting for quite some time.

Qian Renxue had originally looked pleased to see Jiang Yuan, but the moment she spotted the timid figure behind him, her expression instantly darkened.

After learning the full story from Jiang Yuan, Qian Renxue looked at him with a grave expression.

Was it you, Jiang Yuan, who had gotten too full of yourself, or was it me, Qian Renxue, who could no longer lift a blade?

Good grief. I only failed to keep an eye on you for one day, and you were already bringing girls home.

Although Na'er was still young, it was already obvious she would become a peerless beauty in the future.

If he was allowed to go out a few more times, was he going to gather a whole harem of wives and concubines?

"Pretty much!"

Qian Renxue's stare made Jiang Yuan rub his nose in embarrassment.

"The divine oracle left by the Angel God was to protect the peace of the continent. Since I ran into her, I couldn't just stand by and watch her die."

The excuse was somewhat forced, but at least it was an excuse.

Moreover, Jiang Yuan had even mentioned the Angel God, so Qian Renxue's expression eased slightly, though she still watched Na'er warily.

"The people in Spirit City are all soul masters. How could an ordinary person with no soul power possibly appear here? And before you even investigated properly, you dared bring her home?"

"We did investigate!"

"Na'er entered Spirit City with a caravan smuggling people. After that caravan entered Spirit City, it was arrested by the Enforcement Team. Na'er took the chance to escape in the chaos, and I happened to run into her."

Jiang Yuan also stated Spirit Hall's investigation results at that moment, a flicker of astonishment flashing through his eyes.

Those fellows from the Star Dou Forest were all shockingly brilliant.

What a background full of holes.

"Do you believe that?"

Sure enough, Qian Renxue gave a cold laugh at his words, her suspicious gaze repeatedly sweeping toward Na'er.

"No matter where she comes from, is Spirit Hall supposed to be afraid of one ordinary little girl?"

"Oh, right. Na'er, how old are you this year? Have you awakened your martial soul?"

Jiang Yuan felt a little exhausted. He could not dispel Qian Renxue's suspicions, but he also could not really shove this esteemed Silver Dragon King out the door.

Otherwise, who knew what unknown consequences it might trigger?

Besides, based on Jiang Yuan's speculation, even if he sent Na'er away today, she would return to his side at some point in the future.

"Six. I don't have a martial soul yet."

Na'er blinked her large purple eyes and glanced at Qian Renxue. Sensing the scrutiny in her gaze, she immediately hid behind Jiang Yuan again, lowered her head, and spoke.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue was so angry in secret that her teeth itched.

Hearing Na'er's words, Qian Renxue's eyes turned, and a warm smile appeared on her face as she looked at Na'er and said, "Is that so? Then let me awaken your martial soul for you."

Qian Renxue's brief change left Jiang Yuan somewhat startled. Her face changed way too quickly.

His gut told him Qian Renxue was up to something.

Qian Renxue did indeed have her own little calculations.

Jiang Yuan was kind. He could not bear to see suffering in the world. If she forcibly sent Na'er away, it would inevitably leave a bad impression of her in Jiang Yuan's heart.

How could she allow that?

She had always aspired to play the role of the perfect older sister in Jiang Yuan's heart.

And after she awakened Na'er's martial soul, if Na'er's talent was not good enough, she would have the perfect reason to arrange for Na'er to leave this place.

As for Na'er's talent reaching the level of the two of them, she had never even considered it.

Did they really think god-level martial souls were cabbages?

"Roar!"

With a sonorous dragon's roar ringing through the entire estate, it even spread across more than half of Spirit City.

Qian Renxue wore an expression of utter disbelief as she looked at Na'er in the Awakening Array, a golden giant dragon appearing behind her.

Another super martial soul?!

True Awakening God-King: Qian Renxue

"...Let's test your soul power."

After a brief silence, under Na'er's dazed gaze, Qian Renxue took out the Awakening Ball, making one final struggle.

Innate full soul power!

The moment the Awakening Ball lit up completely, Qian Renxue gave up struggling, her mind going blank.

At this moment, whether there was a problem with Na'er's origins no longer mattered.

What faction would send out a genius like this to be an undercover agent?

Qian Xunji said that the more people like this, the better. Spirit Hall would take them all without question.

"Brother Jiang Yuan, look, this is my martial soul."

While Qian Renxue was sinking into self-doubt, Na'er had already run up to Jiang Yuan, stretched out her small hand covered in faint golden dragon scales, and lifted her little face with an expression begging for praise.

"Na'er is amazing!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and encouraged Na'er.

"What's going on? What is Jiang Yuan doing?"

Just then, an anxious voice came from high above. Qian Xunji landed, then hurriedly ran toward them. Halfway there, when he sensed the fluctuations coming from Na'er's body, his heart abruptly skipped a beat.

Angel God above, had the birth rate in the divine realm been this high lately?

The Children of God were descending one after another.

It was not just Qian Xunji who was stunned. The several consecrators who arrived afterward also fell silent as they looked at Jiang Yuan, Na'er, and Qian Renxue.

"Spirit Hall is destined to prosper!"

As an elder of Spirit Hall, Golden Crocodile Douluo sighed with burning eyes, then turned and joined the great battle to snatch a disciple.

"Stop fighting over her. Na'er's martial soul is the Golden Dragon. Can any of you understand how to teach golden-type martial souls?"

"Hand her over to this old man. Twenty years from now, Spirit Hall will have one more Golden Dragon Douluo!"
