Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2172: Chapter 239: The Wang Family’s Bountiful Harvest! Shouzhe Obtains a Treasure

…

Given Wang Ningxi’s mere Sky Human Realm Cultivation, theoretically, he’s utterly unable to withstand a slap from the Immortal Emperor.

However, the Immortal Emperor only intended to vent some anger and didn’t truly plan to eliminate him, so she held back and merely smacked him away without actually harming him.

Flying out of Rinse Moon Hall like a meteor, Wang Ningxi was still mid-air when he hastily stabilized himself to avoid landing feet first. Simultaneously, he used his God Sense to call back the fleeing puppet spider, mounted it again, and scurried back into Rinse Moon Hall without delay.

Wang Fugui and Yun Mengyu saw this and exchanged sympathetic glances towards Forty-Seventh Uncle.

Alas~ Forty-Seventh Uncle truly has it hard for the sake of the family.

It’s said that the burden on his shoulders is not light~

“Your Majesty, it’s truly not Ningxi trying to be clever~” Wang Ningxi wore an expression filled with grievance, as if he had suffered a great injustice, “It’s just that this time, Ningxi has a compelling reason to enter the Immortal Dynasty~”

“A compelling reason?” The Immortal Emperor glanced at him sideways and said, “Then I’ll give you a chance. If your so-called compelling reason can move me, I’ll spare you this time. At the very least, you haven’t fully stepped in.”

“Your Majesty, here’s the situation.” Wang Ningxi quickly recounted the predicaments on the Da Qian Defensive Area and the Domain Crossing Ship, “Your Majesty Immortal Emperor, I come representing Dongqian to seek aid, having heard that you have a damaged Domain Crossing Ship at your disposal…”

“It seems I do have a broken ship.”

As a strategic resource, the Immortal Emperor indeed remembered the Domain Crossing Ship after a brief moment of thought.

However, after recalling, she rebuked: “Even a broken ship is still mine. Why should I give it to you?”

“What Your Majesty says is very reasonable.” Wang Ningxi nodded, then lowered his voice, “However, Ningxi has brought something special for you on this trip, hoping to present it to you in private.”

“Oh?” The Immortal Emperor gave him a lazy glance, “Do you intend to bribe me? Whatever you’ve got, you might as well show it publicly to see if it catches my eye.”

“Your Majesty…” Wang Ningxi blinked, insinuatingly, “Better for you to see it in private.”

“Hmph, with your sneaky demeanor, I must see what you’ve got up your sleeve.”

The Immortal Emperor snorted coldly and, with a wave of her jade arm, Immortal Spirit Qi surged forth, enveloping the two and the puppet spider in mist, shielding them from others’ God Sense.

She raised her gaze to Wang Ningxi, her tone icy: “If the treasure you’ve presented is unsatisfactory, I will still break your legs.”

She held no favorable impression of this punk Wang Ningxi.

The Immortal Dynasty painstakingly nurtured some top talents, all of whom he poached away with various underhanded means. Not having him immediately expelled from the Immortal Dynasty was already giving Wang Shouzhe sufficient face.

“Your Majesty, this item is not from me, but from my Old Ancestor grandfather.” Wang Ningxi said helplessly, “If you’re dissatisfied, could you not take it out on me?”

“Shouzhe sent you with it?” The Immortal Emperor’s eyes flickered with interest, “Then what are you waiting for? Hurry and present what Shouzhe has prepared for me to see.”

Wang Shouzhe is a fascinating character, anything he lets slip through his fingers is bound to be a treasure.

“Your Majesty, have a look, it’s this Jade Pendant.” Wang Ningxi took out a Jade Pendant from the Storage Ring, presenting it to the Immortal Emperor with a solemn tone, as if presenting a treasure.

“A Jade Pendant?”

The Immortal Emperor raised her hand, and the Jade Pendant flew into her palm.

But looking closely, she saw it was just a regular Jade Pendant, worth a few Spirit Stones at most. She frowned and asked, “What’s so special about this Jade Pendant?”

“Your Majesty, this is my Old Ancestor grandfather’s personal Jade Pendant.” Wang Ningxi whispered, “Back when the Wang family was still poor, with no valuable treasures, this Jade Pendant was worn by my Old Ancestor grandfather since childhood, only recently taking it off to gift to you.”

“Personal Jade Pendant?” The Immortal Emperor was startled, sniffing delicately with her nose, “It does indeed carry traces of Wang Shouzhe’s aura.”

Immediately, she felt a bit uncomfortable in her posture, shifting her immortal body, and glared at Wang Ningxi: “Why would your Old Ancestor grandfather send me his personal Jade Pendant?”

“Well… Ningxi doesn’t understand his deep intentions either.” Wang Ningxi blinked innocently.

That look, as if he genuinely knew nothing.

However, at that moment, he involuntarily recalled the scene when he got the Old Ancestor grandfather’s personal Jade Pendant.

It was an afternoon.

The wind was gentle, the sun was just right.

Wang Liyu Grand Aunt was sunbathing in the Old Ancestor grandfather’s courtyard, replenishing calcium, slowly strengthening her turtle shell.

At that time, Wang Ningxi slipped into the Old Ancestor grandfather’s courtyard, using personally cooked grilled Spirit Fish, enticing Li Yan Grand Aunt to sneak out the Old Ancestor grandfather’s Jade Pendant.

The entire process, he was on edge, afraid of being caught.

That scenario, truly not a pleasant memory~

But everything was for the rise of Da Qian, the rise of the Wang family. Old Ancestor grandfather, Ningxi can only apologize to you~~

“Wang Ningxi! Wang Ningxi!”

The Immortal Emperor’s repeated calls interrupted Wang Ningxi’s thoughts.

She asked with a bit of unease: “I heard you’re an expert on romantic relationships. Tell me, does your Old Ancestor grandfather truly have any ulterior motives for me?”
