353: God Tide Gift Dragon

God Xi chuckled, "There are Dragon Clan members on the Divine Mountain right now, do you think they dare to come looking for trouble?"

Wu Ning couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "How domineering!"

Although the Dragon Clan is not weak, they are still far inferior to the God Race, so they wouldn't go to great lengths for a few young Dragons.

Actually, speaking of which, the Dragon Clan is definitely the most aggrieved hegemonic race in all the Heavens.

After all, the Dragon Clan is full of treasures; Dragon blood, Dragon scales, Dragon bones, Dragon tendons, and even Dragon saliva are peerless treasures. The stronger the power and the purer the bloodline, the more valuable they become.

Therefore, they are coveted by countless races and powerful individuals throughout the Heavens.

Furthermore, the Dragon Clan's bodies are majestic and powerful. If tamed and used as mounts, it would definitely be something countless people dream of.

If the Dragon Clan hadn't always been a powerful race standing at the Peak of the Heavens, they would have probably been divided and raised in captivity long ago.

God Xi looked at his strange gesture; although it was her first time seeing it, she still understood its meaning.

She looked at Wu Ning and asked, "What, you also want to raise True Dragons?"

"Of course I want pure-blooded True Dragons. If you encounter any in the future, you can help me buy them."

"If you want them, I can give you one," God Xi said with a smile.

"Really?"

"Really, as long as you're not afraid of the Dragon Clan finding out."

"The Dragon Clan is indeed a bit troublesome, but as long as they don't know, it's fine."

Wu Ning thought for a moment and said, these two pure-blooded True Dragons are still too weak. To serve as his mounts, their Cultivation must at least not be inferior to God Xi's Nine-Colored Divine Bird, which is an ultimate being.

He could temporarily let them Cultivate in his inner world and release them when he needed to travel (or show off). If he didn't want the Dragon Clan to know, he could just change his identity.

God Xi didn't ask further. She turned her gaze to the two pure-blooded True Dragons and said, "In that case, I'll give you that Little Black Dragon."

Knowing that God Xi was a top-tier rich woman, which could be somewhat discerned from this Divine Beast Garden, Wu Ning wouldn't be polite with her and directly grabbed the Black Dragon.

Before it could struggle, it was sent into Wu Ning's inner world.

"Roar, roar—"

The White Dragon beside them seemed a bit bewildered when it saw the Black Dragon suddenly disappear. It turned its head and let out a low growl towards Wu Ning and God Xi, but made no other movements.

Afterward, God Xi continued to show Wu Ning around other parts of the Divine Beast Garden.

In a misty hill, Wu Ning saw several Nine-tailed Celestial Foxes of the same race as Little White.

However, Little Green and Little White were left in his clan to help manage the Dao Yu Immortal Palace and were not brought with him.

By the time the two finished touring the Divine Beast Garden, more than half a month had passed.

On this day, God Xi and Wu Ning were boating on a vast, boundless Immortal Lake, admiring the golden lotus flowers blooming across the lake.

Suddenly, a small colorful bird conjured from magical power flew to God Xi and then landed in her hand.

Wu Ning recognized at a glance that this was a simple communication Spell.

After God Xi finished checking the message, the bird immediately dissipated.

She looked at Wu Ning and asked, "Three days from now, there will be a Prodigy gathering on the Divine Mountain. Are you interested?"

"Oh? What kind of Prodigy gathering?"

"It's initiated by several Young Dao Venerables of our clan, inviting the most top-tier Prodigies from all major branches of the God Race, as well as Prodigies and Prodigies from various races who have come to observe the ceremony with the major forces of the Heavens."

God Xi explained softly, "This is also a tradition; it's held before every Banquet of the Gods. The standard is very high, and the lowest Cultivation for those invited must be at the Divine Emperor Realm."

"If you're interested, you can come with me to see. This Prodigy gathering is not just a simple gathering. To attract many Prodigies, there will also be a treasure exchange session where you can take out unused treasures to exchange with others who are interested, or trade for things you're interested in from others."

Hearing God Xi say this, Wu Ning genuinely felt a flicker of interest.

After all, these were all top-tier Prodigies and Prodigies from various races, and even Young Dao Venerables were participating. Even if the items brought for exchange were things they didn't need, they would certainly not be common goods.

Most people attending this gathering were probably coming for this treasure exchange session.

Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, it was three days later.

The Prodigy gathering was held in a magnificent divine palace near the ridge of the Divine Mountain.

It wasn't too far from God Xi's Divine Maiden Palace, so the two didn't ride the Nine-Colored Divine Bird again, but instead traveled directly by flying boat.

The flying boat was very fast. In just a moment, a magnificent, golden palace radiating rich divine light appeared in Wu Ning's sight.

They flew in from the direction of the mountain ridge and could see many streaks of light flying into the divine palace from another direction.

"Look quickly, it's Her Highness the Divine Maiden!"

"That person next to the Divine Maiden, could he be that Wu Clan Dao Child from the Human Race?"

"Tsk, he looks ordinary, nothing special about him."

"I heard the Divine Maiden let him stay in the Divine Maiden Palace, and the two of them have been together for the past half month..."

"Damned Human Race brat, when I advance to Dao Lord, I'll definitely go challenge him to a duel!"

Soon, someone noticed the two figures, and a wave of discussion immediately broke out.

Most people skipped over God Xi and directly focused their gaze on Wu Ning, scrutinizing him repeatedly, their eyes filled with curiosity or anger, and even more with various degrees of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

In addition, there were many overt and covert murderous intentions.

Wu Ning glanced around, not caring much; they were just a bunch of ants.

Upon arriving at the upper palace of the divine palace, God Xi waved her hand to put away the flying boat. The two ignored the many gazes and flew directly towards the main hall.

Inside the main hall of the divine palace, it was now decorated lavishly and to the extreme of luxury.

The entire hall was arranged in a three-tiered ladder shape. The uppermost tier had the smallest area, with only twelve seats placed there.

Each seat was very large; even dozens of people could sit without feeling crowded.

The middle tier of the hall was several times larger, with one hundred seats placed.

The lowest tier had the largest area, with thousands of seats, yet it still appeared incredibly spacious.

After Wu Ning and God Xi entered the main hall, they casually glanced around, then directly flashed and flew to the uppermost tier.

"Divine Maiden!"

"Divine Maiden!"

Some God Race Prodigies saw her and immediately stood up and bowed.

God Xi gave a faint hum and then sat down with Wu Ning at an empty seat in the very front.

Many people saw Wu Ning beside her, their eyes flickering slightly, but most only glanced once before averting their gaze, not paying much attention.

After the two were seated, maids immediately presented various exotic fruits, immortal delicacies, and divine brews.

Wu Ning took a sip of the God Race's fine wine and casually scanned the hall with his gaze.

Of the twelve seats, including theirs, only half were filled.

Among the remaining five seats, three were occupied by members of the God Race, and the other two were by people from the Asura God Clan and the Mount Sumeru Buddhist Court, respectively.

Wu Ning curiously took an extra look at the people from the Mount Sumeru Buddhist Court. These Buddhist Court members, regardless of gender, were all exceptionally beautiful.
