Capítulo 2173: Chapter 239: The Wang Family’s Bountiful Harvest! Shouzhe Obtains a Treasure

The personality of the Immortal Emperor has always been straightforward, but at this moment, her bright and noble face showed rare embarrassment.

“This, that…” Wang Ningxi said hesitantly, “Your Majesty, how can a junior like me guess the Old Ancestor’s thoughts?”

“Hmph, I guess his intentions are not pure.” The Immortal Emperor snorted with her head held high, “When you return, relay a message to him from me: he shouldn’t overthink things, but rather focus on managing the Wang family and contributing to the human race. He shouldn’t dabble in crooked ways all day long.”

“Yes, yes, Your Majesty, you are absolutely right.” Wang Ningxi nodded repeatedly, paused for a moment, then glanced at the jade pendant and said, “Then, should Ningxi take this jade pendant back to return to the Old Ancestor?”

“Never mind, never mind, I am of True Immortal stature, and it’s no surprise if people covet me.” The Immortal Emperor, however, put away the jade pendant with a show of pride, and said, “No matter what, Shouzhe has contributed greatly to the human race, and I don’t want to hurt his feelings too much.”

“Yes, yes, Your Majesty, you are right.” Wang Ningxi nodded repeatedly, then glanced at her again and weakly asked, “Then, that old boundary ferry boat…?”

“Take it, take it.” The Immortal Emperor waved generously, “After all, that ship has been sitting there unused for two thousand years. Since Shouzhe wants it, let it serve some purpose.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Wang Ningxi, “surprised and delighted,” prepared to bow.

“Don’t come down, I haven’t lifted your confinement yet.”

“Yes, yes, Your Majesty, you are absolutely right, I won’t come down, I won’t come down.”

As she spoke, the Immortal Emperor waved her hand, dispersing the mist.

She instructed the eunuch, “Go clean up that old boundary ferry boat, let Wang Ningxi take it back to Dongqian, and put it to some use.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” The eunuch accepted the order and left.

This scene left Yun Mengyu, who was also in Rinse Moon Hall, looking bewildered.

She looked at the Old Ancestor and then at Wang Ningxi, completely perplexed.

What kind of plot development is this? Not long ago, the Old Ancestor was still shouting to kill Wang Ningxi, and now the boundary ferry boat has been given away?

Only Wang Fugui seemed to see through Forty-Seventh Uncle’s tricks.

They were both very clever people and had been close since childhood. With the clues so clear, how could they not guess each other’s thoughts?

He looked at Wang Ningxi with a complex and inscrutable gaze, even with a hint of reverence in his eyes. Forty-Seventh Uncle, oh Forty-Seventh Uncle, you really do have the audacity, much more than Wang Fugui does.

Wang Ningxi glanced back faintly, with an expression that clearly read “helpless.”

Do you think I have a way? Why don’t you try it next time?

No, no, no! I wouldn’t do it even if you kill me!

Wang Fugui immediately turned his head away.

Wang Ningxi’s matter was merely an interlude. When it was resolved, the Immortal Emperor waved her expansive sleeve and ordered, “Have Elder Tianji come to see me.”

The eunuch accepted the order and left the hall. Before long, Elder Tianji and his entourage, who had been waiting in a nearby hall, were invited into Rinse Moon Hall.

Wang Fugui, Wang Ningxi, and the others had never met Elder Tianji and immediately focused their attention on him.

He was an elderly man with a completely white beard, wearing a robe in a very ancient style. At first glance, he seemed to exude celestial presence, but on closer inspection, his physique was extremely robust and burly. Even with clothes covering him, his muscular lines were clearly visible, and every gesture seemed to exude infinite explosive power.

Especially his aura, which was very peculiar. It was more akin to those Void Realm puppets at home than a human, but the divine thought fluctuations faintly emitted from his body unmistakably belonged to a human.

“Is this a puppet immortal body?” Wang Ningxi, skilled in the art of artifact refining and also adept at puppets, was extremely interested in puppet creations and was watching intently.

It looked no different from an ordinary person~

Whether it was skin or joints, they were almost indistinguishable from the human race.

Its craftsmanship was in line with the tradition of the Divine Martial Dynasty. The guardian puppets acquired by the Wang family from relics were also extremely similar in appearance to humans, with some Void Realm ones almost indistinguishable from real humans, except for their rather unremarkable appearance.

Noticing Wang Ningxi’s gaze, Elder Tianji glanced sidelong as well.

After giving him a kind smile, Celestial Mechanism Elder greeted the Immortal Emperor with cupped hands: “Tianji, at Your Majesty’s service.”

The three people following him also bowed respectfully: “Tian Peng, Golden pupil, Sanbao, pay respects to Your Majesty.”

These three were the three Pavilion Masters stationed at the Immortal Dynasty headquarters of the Duobao Pavilion, namely the First Pavilion Master True Monarch Tian Peng, Second Pavilion Master True Monarch Golden pupil, and Third Pavilion Master True Monarch Sanbao.

It was said that First Pavilion Master True Monarch Tian Peng was a demon emperor with a lineage of the great roc. His strength had reached the pinnacle of Level Twelve, making him one of the world’s top powerhouses, second only to True Immortals and True Demons.

Moreover, he possessed dual bloodline affinities of Wind and Space, not only gifted with extreme flying speed but also capable of tracking enemies who tear space to flee by following spatial trajectories, making him formidable either in pursuit or retreat.

However, True Monarch Tian Peng spent most of his time in closed-door cultivation, merely standing guard without much participation in actual affairs.
