"This little girl is really cute..."

Looking at the little Nanzhi in front of her, Hongxian praised her and then fell silent for a moment.

To be honest, she was still a little conflicted.

On the one hand, he was bothered by the relationship between Nanzhi and Yeyun, after all, it was his child with another woman.

On the other hand, looking at the cute girl in front of him who had half of Ye Yun's bloodline, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

It must be said that Ye Yun's bloodline power is quite strong.

One can clearly see a part of his influence in Nan Zhi.

Perhaps that's why Hong Xian'er became somewhat interested in her.

It seemed that he had noticed Hong Xian'er's mood.

On this day, Tianwu looked at her and suddenly smiled.

"Hey little girl, how about we make a deal?"

Hong Xian'er, who was engrossed in watching, looked up at her and asked when she heard this.

"What kind of transaction are you referring to, senior?"

Tianwu's gaze fell on Xiao Nanzhi in the cradle.

Then, she turned to Hong Xian'er and said.

"It's very simple, you just need to look after my child for a while."

"Play with her when you have time, and when she gets tired, coax her to sleep."

By any measure, this person seems to be looking for a nanny to take care of the child.

Hong Xian'er naturally noticed this as well, and couldn't help but frown.

In particular, the other party should know the complex feelings between himself and this little girl.

Under such circumstances, it's hard not to wonder what the other person is thinking when they ask themselves to do these things.

Hong Xian'er didn't think too much about it; she simply asked a question.

"What benefit would I get from doing these things?"

Before refusing, she felt it was necessary to ask about the conditions first.

However, what she didn't expect was that Tianwu in front of her was also very clear about her little scheme.

So, as soon as he opened his mouth, he offered a condition that Hong Xian'er couldn't refuse.

"The benefits..."

Tianwu stared at her meaningfully for a while, and then suddenly smiled and said.

"I've got it! You help me take care of the child, and I'll guide you through breaking through to the Imperial Dao Realm, how about that?"

This sentence accurately hit Hong Xian'er's weakness.

Now that her cultivation has reached the peak of the Dao Building stage, she is seeking a way to break through.

The fact that Yue Rushuang and Ye Yun both surpassed her put her under immense psychological pressure.

Although she didn't say it aloud, she still hoped that the gap between herself and her husband could be smaller.

To put it more realistically...

If Ye Yun breaks through to the Emperor rank while she is still lingering at the peak of the Dao Building stage, she might become somewhat withdrawn.

The conditions that Tianwu is now offering are clearly a perfect shot at the bullseye.

"..."

Hong Xian'er was stunned for a moment and fell silent.

Seeing this, Tianwu smiled and asked.

"So, are you willing to accept this deal?"

Hong Xian'er took a deep breath and quickly nodded.

"No problem, I'm willing!"

Although I don't know why Tianwu suddenly asked me to take care of the child.

But such a simple thing can earn you the opportunity to break through to the Imperial Dao Realm.

For her, it was undoubtedly a profitable deal.

"Alright, it's a deal then."

Tianwu smiled and patted her shoulder.

"From today onwards, for the rest of the time, you will be Xiao Nanzhi's guardian."

"Keep up the good work, I believe you can do it!"

Seeing this, Hong Xian'er couldn't help but ask.

"I'm helping you take care of the children, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing this, Tianwu's lips curled up slightly, looking relieved.

"Is that even a question? Since someone can help take care of the child."

"Finally, I can get some rest!"

Hong Xian'er never expected that this would be the reason why she would leave the child in her care.

So much so that she couldn't help but complain to herself.

Is this Senior Tianwu really a qualified mother?

But regardless, she had already agreed to the other party's request, and it wouldn't be good for her to go back on her word at the last minute.

"Hmm...no problem, I'll take care of her from now on."

Hong Xian'er nodded in agreement.

After that, Tianwu taught her step by step.

For example, how to change Xiao Nanzhi's clothes, bathe her, and even lull her to sleep and play with her.

They even told her in detail what the little girl liked and disliked.

As a female cultivator who had never raised a child before, Hong Xian'er never imagined that there were so many intricacies involved in raising a child.

In her mind, a baby is just eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating?

Looking back now, there really are quite a few things to consider.

Finally, after Tianwu explained everything to him, she said with a smile.

"That's about it... I won't go into details about the rest."

"You'll understand once you experience it for yourself."

"Furthermore... if you encounter any problems, you can come directly to me for advice."

At this moment, Hong Xian'er felt like she was about to grow a brain from hearing so much.

But at this point, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

"Okay, I will take good care of the child."

Tianwu nodded approvingly and chuckled.

"Okay, then I'll leave Xiao Nanzhi in your care for now."

After saying that, she stretched and yawned.

"I'll take a rest as well."

After saying that, Tianwu actually fell asleep.

This left Hong Xian'er, who was standing nearby, somewhat helpless.

This senior is really too trusting of himself, isn't he?

Or perhaps, it's simply that they don't care?

Regardless, she is now Xiao Nanzhi's guardian.

Since you are the guardian, you should naturally take good care of the other party.

Meanwhile, in the cradle of little Nanzhi.

Looking at Hong Xian'er, who was staring at him with a helpless expression.

It was as if they knew about the change in the identity of the person in front of them.

She blinked her big eyes, stared straight at Hong Xian'er, and burst into laughter.

This sight made Hong Xian'er somewhat depressed.

"You little brat, you did that on purpose, didn't you?"

She always felt that Xiao Nanzhi was making fun of her, but she had no proof.

……

After that, Hong Xian'er truly became Xiao Nanzhi's guardian.

Tianwu was so at ease that she directly instructed Hongxian'er to take Xiaonanzhi back.

That is, the small wooden building that Ye Yun and Hong Xian'er built.

When Ye Yun returned after a dual cultivation session, he was surprised to see Hong Xian'er taking care of Nan Zhi.

"Xian'er, what's wrong with you...?"

As far as I can remember, Hong Xian'er didn't seem to care much for her daughter, who had a special situation.

How come it's been brought back now?

So much so that he couldn't help but ask a question.

"Hey, did you steal this from Senior Tianwu?"

Hearing this, Hong Xian'er rolled her eyes at him and said irritably.

"What are you thinking? Do I look like the kind of person who would steal a child?"

At this moment, she was upset because Ye Yun had misunderstood her.

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and then asked.

"Then this is...?"

Hong Xian'er took a deep breath and slowly explained.

"That's a long story, it goes like this..."

Hong Xian'er recounted her deal with Senior Tianwu to Ye Yun.

After understanding the cause and effect, Ye Yun seemed to understand something and nodded thoughtfully.

"I see. It seems that senior intended to..."

Seeing Ye Yun's expression, Hong Xian'er snorted and asked.

"What is that senior thinking?"

"Cough cough, it's nothing."

Ye Yun quickly shook his head, trying to brush it off.

Then, he changed the subject and said with a smile.

"Xian'er, how are you feeling taking care of her?"

Since the other party brought us here, they must have been taking care of us for some time now.

Upon hearing this, Hong Xian'er pondered for a moment and then said.

"Well..."

She lowered her head, glanced at the adorable girl in the cradle, and took a deep breath.

"This little girl is quite well-behaved; she doesn't make a fuss or cause any trouble."

"I thought babies this age cried all the time."

Undoubtedly, the appearance of Xiao Nanzhi broke some of her stereotypes about children.

Even... it's because Xiao Nanzhi is so well-behaved that she can't find any fault with her.

Ye Yun was about to say, "Don't you even know whose daughter she is?"

But then I thought, I shouldn't make things worse and upset Xian'er.

So he just smiled and said.

"So it seems that you two get along quite well, Xian'er?"

"Hmm...it's alright."

Hong Xian'er gazed at Xiao Nanzhi and nodded gently.

"Looking at it this way, this period shouldn't be too difficult..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun smiled faintly.

"Of course it won't be hard to get through. Even if things get really bad, I'll still be here for you, won't I?"

As he spoke, he had already hugged her.

This time, however, Hong Xian'er pushed him away almost without even turning her head.

This surprised Ye Yun, who asked in confusion.

"Xian'er, what's wrong with you...?"

Hong Xian'er turned her head and glared at him.

"What do you think? You wouldn't actually want to do something like that in front of your own daughter, would you?"

"Oh, this..."

One sentence was enough to silence Ye Yun.

It seems so...

Then, he scratched his head and said,

"How about we go upstairs?"

"That won't work either."

Hong Xian'er refused without hesitation, letting out a soft snort.

"You rascal, it always takes you one or two hours to do that kind of thing."

"What if something happens to Xiao Nanzhi during such a long time?"

One or two hours is indeed not a short time for an infant.

Ye Yun also thought it made sense, but then a problem arose.

He scratched his head and couldn't help but ask.

"If that's the case, does that mean we won't be able to cultivate together anymore?"

After all, Hong Xian'er will probably continue to take care of Xiao Nanzhi before she leaves.

Hong Xian'er replied without even looking up.

"That's true."

"this……"

Ye Yun's lips twitched, his face full of frustration.

He lay beside the cradle, looking at the adorable little Nanzhi in front of him, and sighed helplessly.

"Little Nanzhi, you've really ruined me."

Interestingly, this sullen expression appeared on his face.

Xiao Nanzhi seemed to have seen something fun, clapping her hands happily.

This sight left Ye Yun both amused and exasperated.

Why do I have this feeling that this little girl is definitely going to be a burden to her father in the future?
