Quick Wear: The paranoid beauty grabs the waist and spoils her

Nan Xiang already had a guess about the identity of the person in front of her, but she still spoke to confirm:

"May the Star Venerable know my mother?"

They both knew what he meant.

The gentle smile on Xingyao's face remained unchanged, the starlight of reminiscence flowed in her golden eyes, and her voice was soothing:

"Tens of thousands of years ago, I was like a rootless duckweed, drifting among the countless stars, free from all ties. Until... I met Xiaoyi."

He paused slightly, as if sinking into that warm time.

"She was so tiny back then, but her eyes were as pure and bright as the first born stars... In this world, Xiaoyi was raised by me personally."

Nan Xiang nodded in understanding, her tone adding a touch of natural intimacy:

"Oh, so you're my uncle?"

Xingyao was slightly startled by this straightforward address, then burst out laughing and followed suit:

"...So be it."

He looked at Nan Xiang softly, with the concern of an elder.

"How is your mother...doing now?"

Nan Xiang curled her lips, with an expression that said, "Don't mention it."

"My old man is inseparable from me, always so affectionate and happy, traveling around the world and having a blast."

There was disdain in his tone, but there was an imperceptible warmth in his eyes.

Hearing this, the smile in Xingyao's golden eyes deepened a little, as if he was relieved, but also seemed to sigh:

"Oh, all right."

He looked at Nan Xiang carefully.

"What's your name?"

"Nanxiang."

"Nan Xiang..."

Xingyao repeated it softly, noticing that she took her mother's surname, a hint of understanding and complex approval flashed across her eyes.

"Giving your mother your last name... That guy really loves your mother terribly."

The fact that he agreed to let the child take the mother's surname shows his indulgence and deep love.

Nan Xiang had an expression that said, "Finally you hit the point," and complained with a hint of disdain:

"That's right! My old man is so attached to my mother! I grew up listening to their ups and downs (actually, very sweet) love story, and my ears are almost callused."

Xingyao didn't know what interesting thing she was thinking of. The corners of her lips curved up in joy, and her voice was filled with understanding and teasing:

"That guy's domineering personality is indeed well-deserved."

"Xiao Xiang?"

He called out tentatively, his tone more gentle and intimate.

After chatting for a while, Nan Xiang also noticed that Xingyao's mood was always stable and gentle, without any airs of an elder. Instead, she was like an old friend who had been reunited after a long separation. She also gradually relaxed and revealed some of her natural agility.

"what ever."

Nan Xiang responded, her attitude casual yet natural.

"Xiao Xiang,"

Xingyao's voice became softer.

"Can I change my name? My name is Xingyao."

There was expectation in his eyes, and he obviously felt that the title "Venerable Wish Star" was too unfamiliar and polite.

Nan Xiang understood the hidden meaning in his words.

Calling him "uncle" seemed too formal and abrupt. She rolled her eyes slightly, remembering the way her mother occasionally referred to him. She simply adopted the more intimate name and said, "Uncle, you're my uncle!"

"Uncle Xingyao."

When Xingyao heard this, an extremely bright and satisfied smile instantly appeared on her face, as if the ice and snow had just melted and the stars were shining. It was obvious that she enjoyed this title very much.

"Ten thousand years ago, a brilliant genius emerged from nowhere in this world. He excelled in the power of the stars and his formations. He became famous throughout the world and was honored with the title 'Wish Star'."

Nan Xiang changed the subject and looked at him with clear eyes.

"Later, it was rumored that Venerable Wish Star had passed away... I guess that's not the case, is it?"

Xingyao chuckled softly, and there seemed to be billions of stars flowing in her golden eyes. Her tone was ethereal and profound:

"Three thousand great worlds, countless small worlds, the rotation of stars, the cycle of fate, illusion and destruction, all have their natural destiny. This small world is just a stop in my long cycle of reincarnation."

His eyes grew warmer.

"However, I am indeed lucky to have met Xiaoyi here."

Nan Xiang was very smart and guessed the truth immediately. She said with a hint of surprise:

"Master of the Stars?"

The Lord of the Origin who controls the laws of the stars?

Xingyao just smiled and said nothing, but did not deny it.

Nan Xiang's eyes unconsciously fell on the white and green jade flute in his hand.

Xingyao had already noticed her gaze and explained gently:

"This is the 'Pure Moon Flute', which your mother gave me."

He paused, his tone becoming more kind.

"Of course, since you're meeting the daughter of an old friend, as an elder, I should give you a gift."

"It's not my lifelong study of formations. If Xiaoxiang is interested, feel free to do so."

He saw that Nan Xiang was not very interested in the battle formation, and that was originally a reward for the secret realm assessment. Xiao Xiang deserved it by passing the assessment.

"As for the Star Body and the Star Beast, let's just consider them as a favor to the Heavenly Dao of this small world."

After all, this is the place where he and Xiaoyi lived together and had precious memories.

Nan Xiang understood what he meant. If it wasn't a formation inheritance, then what could it be?

Xingyao stared at her, his golden eyes shimmering with starlight, as if he could see through the origin of everything:

"As the daughter of the Lord of Chaos and the Lord of Life, you are undoubtedly extraordinary. The 'body of doom' you bear is indeed a calamity that only occurs once in a trillion years."

His tone was calm, but he revealed the core secret of Nanxiang's quick travel.

"One must experience ninety-nine lives of happiness and contentment before one can break free from the ninety-nine lives of misfortune. However, there are fifty great ways, forty-nine of which are derived from Heaven, and only one of which can be escaped by man. Since the 'Origin of Destruction and Nothingness' coexists with them, then this is the only solution, and one is destined to be one."

He raised his hand, and the starlight gathered in his palm, transforming into a compass that looked simple but contained the endless trajectory of fate and the power of the stars. He slowly handed it to Nan Xiang.

"Let's give this 'Fate Disk' to Xiaoxiang."

His tone was gentle but unyielding.

Although Nan Xiang didn't know that this "Destiny Disk" was actually one of the Star Lord's natal soul tools, she could still feel the terrifying power and preciousness contained in it, which was definitely not an ordinary item.

She knew that Uncle Xingyao had made up his mind, so she stopped refusing and solemnly accepted it, thanking him sincerely:

"Thank you, Uncle Xingyao."

She rolled her eyes shrewdly and added with a touch of little girl's cunning:

"Actually, my mother often talks about Uncle Xingyao."

The implication is that Nan Yi also misses this old friend who is like a brother and a father to her.

When Xingyao heard this, her smile became even gentler and brighter, as if she had received the response she wanted most.

He reached out and gently ruffled Nan Xiang's hair, his gesture full of the kindness of an elder.

In the Wish Star Secret Realm, the energy of his split soul was about to be exhausted, and his figure began to gradually become transparent and turned into starlight.

"Xiao Xiang, see you again if we're lucky."

His voice slowly faded away along with his figure, soft but clear into Nan Xiang's ears.

"When your doomed body is completely broken, if you are willing, the Fate Disk will guide you to find me."

The starlight faded, leaving only Nan Xiang standing alone in the starry sky hall. The destiny plate in her hand was warm and slightly cool, as if carrying a piece of warmth and concern spanning ten thousand years.
