Ai Cao said, "She'll definitely be called by her name by others later; it's not good to keep calling her 'little girl.'" She asked, "Do you know her name?"
Yang Lingyao finished the last stroke of the talisman and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily. The little girl's body temperature slowly returned to normal; she sat there with her eyes closed, her breathing relatively steady.
Yang Lingyao paused for a few seconds, then looked up and asked, "Nannan?"
Ai Cao gently kicked her: "This is her nickname, right? You've been bothering the child for so long, and you still don't know her name?"
Yang Lingyao simply lay down on the ground and pretended to be dead.
Qingyun slowly walked to Ai Cao's side and said, "I was hit by spiritual power this time, which barely restored my consciousness temporarily. Once I have my fourth tail, I should be able to maintain my human form at any time."
She raised her front paws, jumped onto the mugwort, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
She blinked, and transformed back into an innocent and lively little fox.

They looked at Yang Lingyao.
Yang Lingyao exclaimed "Huh?" and asked, "Shall I get up?"
The proprietress nodded.
Ai Cao said, "You are the sect leader, if you don't come, who will?"
Yang Lingyao hesitated for a moment, unable to find a rebuttal, then said, "I'll give her a temporary name first. After all, a name is just a label—"
She muttered, "The thunder is a bit strong, and she's using fire elemental power..."
"Let's name her Lei Tang," she said. "I wish her to grow up to be a strong and upright woman."
