Chapter 124 The Strange Chrysanthemum

Wen Ning was met with complete silence.

No one responded to her words for a long time. After about two seconds, Wen Ning spoke again, her voice becoming regretful, "It seems you don't miss me very much. In that case, I'll wait until some time before coming back."

As she spoke, she turned to leave.

A regretful smile appeared on his face.

She seemed to feel it was a great pity to do so.

Before Wen Ning could even take a step away, a figure rushed towards her and arrived in front of her in the blink of an eye, pulling her into his arms.

The other person had a clean scent, and her short orange hair brushed against Wen Ning's cheek, causing a slight tickle. Wen Ning's lips curled up slightly, and her voice was filled with laughter, "Sister Nana, it's been a long time."

She hadn't actually finished speaking. After saying "long time no see," Wen Ning wanted to add, "Have you missed me?"

But before she could speak, Hu Liena's voice rang out, "Where have you been all this time? Why did you leave without saying a word?"

There was worry and concern in his voice, but no blame.

Wen Ning was taken aback, her lips drooping as she tried to defend herself, "I did go to do some serious business, but I didn't have anything to do, you see..."

As she spoke, she stretched out her arms, seemingly wanting to show that she had not been hurt at all.

But Hu Liena took two steps back, her expression very serious. "Where did you go?"

At this moment, the other members of the Golden Generation, who were either standing or sitting, also realized what was happening and walked towards Wen Ning's direction.

Qi Lin and Feng Qi were equally fast, and Qi Lin was the second person to reach Wen Ning's side after Hu Liena.

The two of them also began to scrutinize the person in front of them, wanting to see if Wen Ning had changed in any way since they hadn't seen him for so long.

However, after observing closely, they discovered that Wen Ning had indeed changed.

However, this change was for the better; even her complexion improved, looking exceptionally rosy.

Just by looking at it this way, you can tell that Wen Ning must not have suffered any persecution during this period.

Therefore, their assumption is invalid.

Isn't that good news?

Wen Ning smiled at the person in front of her, "Finished looking? Are you alright?"

How could she allow herself to be hurt so easily?

Upon hearing her words, Qi Lin couldn't help but ask, "So where have you been all this time?"

Wen Ning has not answered this question.

and also……

Why did you sneak away? Are we something to be ashamed of?

Meeting Qi Lin's relentless gaze, Wen Ning widened her eyes slightly. "How can you think of yourself like that? Where did I go? Hmm... I'm sure you've all heard of this senior."

"Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo."

As soon as Wen Ning finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent, and Qi Lin, who had been chattering away, also fell silent instantly.

All eyes that had been on Wen Ning turned to Dugu Bo, filled with surprise, curiosity, and admiration for the strong.

In the world of Soul Masters, as long as you are powerful enough, you can be admired by many people.

This is especially true for Title Douluos.

Not to mention a renowned Title Douluo like Dugu Bo.

Even Hu Liena was stunned for a moment after hearing Wen Ning's words, but she quickly realized, "So, the person Director Jiang was talking about, the one guarding Xiao Ning, is Senior Dugu?"

However, Dugu Bo did not have good relations with the Spirit Hall, but was closer to the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire. Why would he be guarding Xiao Ning's side?

Is there something that Xiao Ning didn't tell us?

Concealing her thoughts, Hu Liena was about to ask a few more questions, but before she could speak, Wen Ning spoke first.

"Yes, I've been by Senior Dugu's side all this time, so don't worry about me."

"Come and see what good things I brought back for you."

As Wen Ning said those words, Dugu Bo casually leaned against the door frame, quietly watching the scene before him.

Soon, he saw Wen Ning take out the Ruyi Baibao Pouch that he had given her.

As soon as she took out this treasure pouch, Dugu Bo knew exactly what she was planning to do.

Even so, Dugu Bo didn't react much, just watched calmly.

"What? You brought something back? What is it?"

Qi Lin couldn't help but feel puzzled. He leaned closer, as if he wanted to put his face right up to the opening of the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch to take a closer look.

Seeing this, Wen Ning simply pried his head open, squinted, and said, "Could you move away a bit?"

If I got any closer, my face would be touching her hand.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Qi Lin didn't feel embarrassed at all upon hearing this; he simply moved his head away a little.

It was really only a tiny bit; the distance it moved was negligible.

Wen Ning simply ignored it and continued to search through the Ruyi Treasure Pouch.

Soon, she discovered a divine herb of the highest quality.

It was a huge chrysanthemum, a beautiful purple color. Strangely, every single petal looked fuzzy and adorable.

The entire chrysanthemum is perfectly integrated, yet it emits no fragrance. The central stamen rises more than half a foot above the petals, and the tip of the stamen shimmers with a faint golden light.

"What is this?"

Yan, who was standing not far away, asked with some curiosity.

Wen Ning smiled, a smile that seemed unfathomable. "Brother Yan, this is something I specially prepared for you. It's called the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, a divine herb. Eating it can circulate qi in the limbs, open the eight meridians, and help one cultivate an indestructible body."

"What? That powerful? Indestructible?"

"Although the indestructible body is a bit of an exaggeration, this herb is the perfect match for your martial soul. With it, your cultivation will be twice as effective with half the effort."

As he spoke, Wen Ning opened his palm, indicating that Yan could take the celestial herb.

Seeing this, Yan paused for a moment, then walked up to her. "Xiao Ning, may I repay you with my body?"

"..."

As he spoke, he accepted the rare medicinal herbs that Wen Ning handed him.

These words drew laughter from those around them, especially from Hu Liena, whose eyes even twitched slightly.

Wen Ning's response was, "If you can't take it, stop using your supernatural powers."

After everyone carefully took the herbs, Wen Ning said again, "Eat the flower stamen first, then eat the petals one by one. Don't eat the roots and stems. After you finish eating, immediately start cultivating on the spot."

Upon hearing this, Yan immediately nodded, "Okay."

After Yan walked to the corner and sat down cross-legged, Wen Ning once again reached into the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch.

This time, she took out a jade box.

After noticing the jade box, her gaze swept over everyone before finally settling on Feng Qi. "This is yours."
