"Hmm, that's an ugly name."

While others were speechless because of the name given by Nangong Yaqi, the young Great Ci Tree King said unpleasant words but had a happy smile on his face.

"Is it ugly? Then I'll give you a new name. How about you take my last name from now on? You also have the grass attribute, so I'll call you... Nangong Cai."

Nangong Ya thought about it and decided to give her a new name.

"..."

"Didn't you give that name to Anthos?"

Paimon couldn't help but remind Nangong Ya, although people generally don't use this name to call Ansos.

"Hiss... Then I'll give you another one, with grass attribute... How about calling you Nangong Ci?"

Nangong Ya had to admit that she had no talent for naming.

"Go away, Xiaoya, how can you name a child like that? Why don't you let Paimon do it? Paimon is a professional in naming."

Paimon was opposed to Nangong Yaqi's name and quickly flew forward to speak.

The juvenile Daici Tree King looked up at Paimon curiously.

"Well, why not just call him Nangong Ci, which means goodbye Ci. The nickname is Xiao Ci, which sounds more normal."

Paimon suggested this after thinking for a while.

"Is your name different from mine?"

Nangong Ya muttered in dissatisfaction.

Nashida, who was standing by, listened to them naming the Great Tree King using the Liyue naming method, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis that her mother was going to be taken away by someone.

"It's better to call her Boyer."

Nashida also hurried forward and made a suggestion.

"Eh? Isn't that your name, Narcida?"

Hearing this name, everyone looked at Nashida in confusion.

"This name was originally inherited from the Great Compassion Tree King. It would be perfect if I gave it back to her."

Nashida nodded and explained.

In her opinion, if it weren't for the fact that she and the Great Compassion Tree King shared this name, there would be no need to come up with a special name for the Great Compassion Tree King.

"Okay, but from now on, if the Great Compassion Tree King is called Buyer, then you, Nashida, can only be called Nangong Ci."

Nangong Ya nodded and agreed to Nashida's proposal.

"Why should I change my name too...?"

Nangong Ya’s words made Nashida a little confused.

"Because in the contract between me and the Great Compassion Tree King, as a reward for saving the World Tree, she needs to give me the most important and precious thing of hers, and you now undoubtedly meet the requirements, so you will be mine from now on."

"You're right, aren't you, little kindness sapling?"

Nangong Ya explained the contents of the contract to Nashida with a wicked smile, and then asked the young Buyer in her arms.

"Right!"

Little Buyer obediently said what Nangong Ya asked her to say.

When the contract was signed, King Dacishu could not have anticipated that he would create Nashida in the future.

"Eh?!"

Nashida, Ying and Paimon exclaimed together. They never expected that the reward in the contract would be like this.

"But, but I am the god of Xumi, how can I..."

Nashida hurriedly explained, and her mind couldn't help but recall the light novel she read in the void some time ago, and her little face suddenly turned red.

"Wow, Xiaoya, you are so mean. You actually use this kind of thing to force Nashida."

Paimon couldn't help but speak up for Nashida.

"What do you mean by coercion? This is called... uh... parents' orders and matchmaker's words."

Nangong Ya thought about it and could only come up with this sentence to express what she meant.

"Your place is feudal dregs in Liyue, not to mention this is Xumi."

"Ah this..."

After being refuted by Paimeng, Nangong Ya scratched her cheek. Maybe she should find a chance to touch Paimeng...

Just as Nashida was feeling embarrassed, Ying suddenly noticed something and looked around.

"That's not right, Xiaoya. The Great Compassion Tree King has recovered, but the pollution of the World Tree has not been cleared yet. Your contract is only halfway complete."

After confirming it, Ying turned around and reminded Nangong Ya.

"…It's probably because the contamination of forbidden knowledge occurred within the World Tree, and your resurrection of the Great Compassion Tree King has no direct connection with the World Tree."

Nashida also quickly observed her surroundings and quickly came to this conclusion.

In addition, she found that she seemed to be able to communicate vaguely with the World Tree, which should be the reason why the Great Compassion Tree King had "disappeared".

"Don't worry, this situation is just like touching Hanasakura and then touching the sacred cherry tree."

Nangong Ya waved her hand indifferently. In this situation, she only needed to touch the World Tree again to clear it up.

"Sacred cherry tree?"

When Nashida heard the name, she, who had just been able to communicate with the World Tree, tried to find the answer within it.

Soon, the Divine Sakura Purification that the Great Compassionate Tree King had just looked up also appeared in Nashida's mind.

At the end of the Divine Sakura Purification, in addition to the unrecorded appearance of Kokitsune Saigū, there was another unrecorded scene, which was the purification of the Divine Sakura tree.

Although the purified divine cherry tree avoided the soul power hidden in it by Lei Dianzhen, it also made the divine cherry tree completely "younger", gaining a new life and staying away from pollution.

"Wait, this is not right, Xiaoya!"

The clever Nashida quickly thought of something and hurriedly called out to Nangong Ya.

When they stopped and looked at her because of her voice, Nashida hurriedly explained.

"The method you used to restore the sacred cherry tree to its previous state and give it a new life cannot be used on the world tree, because the world tree records everything on the continent of Teyvat."

"If you return the World Tree to its uncontaminated state five hundred years ago, the past five hundred years on Teyvat will become blank. The memories of everyone born within these five hundred years will be completely blank, with only the body's instinctive consciousness remaining."

Nashida explained to Nangong Ya the seriousness of the problem. She had deduced from the objects Nangong Ya had touched that Nangong Ya could make the objects return to their original state.

If Nangong Ya uses purification to return the handkerchief to its original state before it was stained, the stain will not return no matter how much time has passed, unlike the memory that temporarily disappears when it is in the state of being a child.

Although the World Tree records everything that has happened in Teyvat, it is just a cloud memory hard drive. Changing the records in it will not change what has happened in the world. Deleting a person will not cause him to die directly, but all memories about him will disappear, including his own memories.

If everything that happened in the past five hundred years were deleted, then everyone in the world would forget everything that happened in the past five hundred years. Those who were under the age of five hundred would probably only have the instincts of a newborn baby.

After hearing what Nashida said, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, and Nangong Ya retracted her hands into her sleeves before rubbing them.

"Then...what if I use the power of my left hand to purify it? Although according to the Great Compassion Tree King, it may not be possible to purify it all at once, but I can repeat it until the purification is complete."

Nangong Ya raised her left hand and asked Nashida.

"In that case, the result will not change at all, because you just resurrected the Great Compassion Tree King, and did not change the fact that the record of her in the World Tree was polluted..."

"If you do that, we will all forget who the girl you are holding is."

Narcida shook her head.

Although the resurrected King Daichi will no longer disappear completely due to the clearing of the records in the World Tree, she will be forgotten by everyone, including herself, just like the [Scattered Soldier] in the normal plot.

The only exception is travelers.

Nangong Ya looked at Ying, as if she had thought of something...

"for you."

Just when Nangong Ya thought of something, Ying suddenly took out a handful of Nageda Rice Light and a handful of Verdant Dream of Heaven and Earth and handed them to Nangong Ya.

"...???"

"You just wanted to test whether I would be affected by the World Tree. You gave me these two things and asked Nashida to delete the record of you giving them to me."

When Nangong Ya was confused, Ying began to explain.

Apart from her, even Nashida herself could not remember anyone.

"Then I'll feel relieved."

Nangong Ya did not take the weapon, but put down the little Buyer in her arms.

"As long as I treat the World Tree as a life and let it trigger the juvenility, then when the juvenility ends, the lost records can still be restored, instead of being lost forever like touching ordinary objects and returning to the past."

"But the duration of the juvenile transformation is random. Sister Ying, you are the only one who is not affected by the World Tree. I would like to ask you to protect the World Tree during this period of time, no matter what happens."

Nangong Ya looked at Ying seriously and handed her two weapons.

Although this situation would put the World Tree in greater danger, it seemed to be the only remaining method without forgetting the Great Compassionate Tree King.

Perhaps in the future, Ying could explain the existence of the Great Compassion Tree King to those who had forgotten her, but what would be the point? Nangong Ya had no real memory of her...

I thought of a beginning and an end for this book from the beginning, and the middle is empty.
