328: a small punishment

It must be said that after Wu Ning reined in his Qi, his entire presence seemed to diminish greatly.

If one didn't pay close attention, an ordinary person would indeed find it difficult to notice him.

After seeing his face clearly, Ziwei Goddess's flawless cheeks immediately flushed with a beautiful blush, as if she had thought of something.

Swish!

The next moment, her figure vanished from the main hall.

Some people around noticed, but they didn't pay attention, assuming she had left for something important.

...

Facing Ji Feng's provocation, Bai Wuxiang completely ignored him.

He was just a clown.

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist slapping him to death.

Seeing this, Ji Feng couldn't help but reveal a hint of disdain:

"What are you pretending for? A stray dog, do you really think you're still some Young Master of a major power?"

"Ji Feng, you've provoked this Emperor repeatedly. Do you really think this Emperor has no temper?"

A faint glint flashed in Bai Wuxiang's eyes.

"This Emperor?"

Ji Feng's face showed mockery, and just as he was about to say something more, Ziwei Goddess reappeared on the main seat of the hall.

In just a few breaths, she had taken off her battle armor and changed into a light purple, wide-sleeved palace dress.

Her long black hair flowed down her back like silk, her eyes sparkled, full of radiant light, and her exquisitely beautiful face held a touch of gentleness, exuding an ethereal and serene aura.

From a peerlessly graceful female War God, she had instantly transformed into an otherworldly Goddess who seemed to not partake in worldly affairs.

Everyone in the hall was immediately drawn to her.

Ziwei Goddess Yu Qingxuan had always appeared as a female War God; this was the first time they had seen her dressed like a maiden, and for a moment, they couldn't help but be stunned.

"I am Bai Wuxiang. I offer an immortal divine medicine, wishing the Goddess a worry-free Dao and the fulfillment of all her desires!"

Bai Wuxiang took out a white jade immortal box, stood up, and handed it to Ziwei Goddess.

"immortal divine medicine?"

Everyone looked at Bai Wuxiang in surprise. An immortal divine medicine was a divine medicine above Emperor-grade immortal medicine; its value was immeasurable, and this was no small gesture.

"Impossible, how could he have an immortal divine medicine?"

Several Ji Clan members showed incredulous expressions. They didn't believe Bai Wuxiang would possess such a high-grade treasure.

Even if he had luckily obtained one, they didn't believe he would be willing to give it away as a gift!

"Goddess!"

Ji Feng immediately stood up and cupped his hands to Ziwei Goddess, saying, "This Bai Wuxiang is a traitor of our Ji Clan; it's impossible for him to possess such a Heaven And Earth Treasure. Goddess, be wary that this item might be unusual."

Ziwei Goddess's delicate brows furrowed slightly.

Although she was meeting Bai Wuxiang for the first time, she had long known about him. His Revered Master was a close friend of one of her Yu Clan's Old Ancestors.

That was a Dao Lord Great Power.

And her family's Old Ancestor had even arranged a marriage between them. She had been searching for Bai Wuxiang all these years, hoping to privately dissolve the engagement with him.

It wasn't until recently that she found his whereabouts, and then had someone send him an immortal invitation, inviting him to attend her birthday, intending to use this opportunity to dissolve their engagement.

Is it strange for a Disciple of a Dao Lord to be able to casually produce an immortal divine medicine?

"Thank you, Young Master Bai."

She said with a smile, directly putting away the white jade immortal box, and ignoring Ji Feng's words.

Seeing this, Ji Feng's face became somewhat unsightly. He glared at Bai Wuxiang resentfully, then sat back down with a gloomy expression.

Wu Ning flipped his hand and took out a scroll painting, saying:

"I came in a hurry and didn't prepare any special gift. This painting was something I casually drew in my leisure time. I think it's quite good, so I'll give it to the Goddess."

Swish!

The painting instantly appeared before Ziwei Goddess.

"Thank you, Dao Child!"

A hint of excitement flashed in Ziwei Goddess's eyes. She immediately reached out with both hands to take the scroll, then slowly unfurled a corner...

"Dao Child?"

Bai Wuxiang was startled by the words, then turned to look at Wu Ning in astonishment, instantly understanding.

Everyone looked at the painting in the Goddess's hand with strange expressions. A casually drawn painting, could it also be considered a congratulatory gift?

Ji Feng even sneered, "What audacity! Who do you think you are? To bring out a worthless, shoddy painting, it's truly laughable..."

"Noisy!"

Wu Ning glanced at him indifferently.

Ji Feng instantly felt as if someone had choked his neck, his voice abruptly cut off!

He suddenly widened his eyes, frantically clawing at his throat, his face turning blood-red, his features contorted as if in extreme pain, yet he couldn't even make a sound.

Everyone's pupils contracted. What kind of Divine Ability was this?

They couldn't see the slightest clue.

Bai Wuxiang secretly shook his head.

What a fool. What kind of person is the Wu Clan Dao Child? To dare provoke him, he truly doesn't know how to write the word 'death'.

The white-robed youth leading the Ji Clan immediately appeared beside Ji Feng, reaching out to check his condition. After a thorough examination, he found no abnormalities, which was extremely bizarre.

"Damn it! What did you do to him?"

The white-robed youth suppressed his anger, his eyes coldly fixed on Wu Ning.

The other three Ji Clan members were also filled with rage, their eyes locked on Wu Ning, wishing they could kill him with their gaze.

"It's merely a small punishment. For the sake of the Goddess's birthday today, I'll spare his insignificant life for now."

Wu Ning said indifferently.

"You!"

The white-robed youth's eyes blazed with anger, but he was somewhat wary of Wu Ning's methods and didn't dare to act rashly for a moment.

He turned to look at Ziwei Goddess, wanting her to intervene, but found that Yu Qingxuan was staring intently at the painting, as if she hadn't noticed Ji Feng's condition at all.

The white-robed youth's heart instantly grew even more annoyed.

But in reality, Yu Qingxuan, looking at Wu Ning's painting, was currently immersed in a certain Epiphany, shielding all her senses, and truly hadn't noticed anything.

Wu Ning's painting was not just a simple painting; what was painted within was not a picture, but Dao, containing various clear Dao principles and Dao rhythms.

It was a cultivation treasure that could aid in comprehending the Dao, and its value was more precious than all the congratulatory gifts from the six immortal powers combined.

Yu Qingxuan's talent was exceptionally high, and her Comprehension Ability was extraordinary. With just one glance, she immediately fell into an Epiphany.

Slap!

The white-robed youth waved his hand, directly knocking Ji Feng unconscious.

Since it wasn't fatal, he might as well let him lie there for now.

"Tsk tsk..."

"Ji Ning, to be able to endure being bullied to this extent, you really are regressing!"

In the seats opposite the Ji Clan, a man from an ancient clan, dressed in golden luxurious robes, couldn't help but sneer.

He had a feminine and handsome appearance, with a pair of delicate peach blossom eyes, thin lips slightly upturned, and a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth.

"Gu Ming, I don't need you to tell this Emperor how to act!"

The white-robed youth said coldly.

Gu Ming snorted disdainfully and no longer bothered with him. Instead, he turned his gaze to Wu Ning and asked with a feigned smile:

"Your Excellency looks very unfamiliar. May I ask which power you are from?"

Wu Ning acted as if he hadn't heard, continuing to drink his wine, not even sparing him a glance.

At this moment, everyone else also looked towards Wu Ning, speculating about his identity and origin.

"Interesting..."

Seeing that Wu Ning completely ignored him, a dangerous glint flashed in Gu Ming's eyes.
