Chapter 389: Chapter 344: Giving Gifts (Congratulating Wanshanghe)

Nuwa’s eyes lit up, and with her pure white jade hand reaching out, the scepter immediately floated out of Bai Jin’s palm and landed in Nuwa’s hand.

With a casual twirl, the scepter thumped down next to her. Despite the scepter’s originally charming design, Nuwa wielded it with an awe-inspiring presence that seemed to swallow rivers and mountains.

Nuwa, donning a crown and grasping the scepter, emitted a demeanor that looked down upon all creatures, even Bai Jin felt a wave of awe wash over him.

Nuwa suddenly chuckled and asked, "What do you think?"

Bai Jin rose to his feet, his expression hazy for a moment as he couldn’t help but uncontrollably chant in praise, "The finest in the vast expanse of Hongmeng, unrivaled in the midst of Chaos, it outshines the brilliance of countless gods, and dazzles through time and space.

My Goddess, you are indeed the prime goddess of boundless time and space, from ancient to present."

Nuwa beamed with a brilliant smile, caressing the scepter as she remarked, "I quite like this gift." The scepter was indeed exquisite and beautiful.

Bai Jin quickly responded, "Having garnered praise from you, Goddess, is its honor.

Goddess, the slogan of this scepter is called ’On behalf of the Sun, I shall vanquish you.’"

"On behalf of the Sun, I shall vanquish you.", Nuwa nodded slightly, committing it to memory, and offhandedly inquired, "Don’t think that just because you’ve given a scepter, I will forget. Where is the scripture I asked you to transcribe?"

Bai Jin balked; the Goddess really did have a good memory! He hastily offered, "Goddess, if you take a closer look at this scepter, you’ll find a pleasant surprise."

Nuwa examined the scepter, which was as fine as white jade, with great attention.

The patterns, emerald-like, gradually magnified and turned out to be composed entirely of minuscule characters, intricately arranged and densely packed.

Nuwa exclaimed in surprise, "Is this the ’Creation Scripture’?"

Bai Jin nodded vigorously, with a deeply moved expression he said, "Several years ago, you sent a messenger cloud to instruct your disciple, awarding him a scroll of the scripture and ordering him to transcribe it diligently to achieve enlightenment.

The disciple understands the Goddess’s painstaking intentions; transcribing the scripture was never the purpose, the Goddess’s intention was for the disciple to comprehend each word of the scripture earnestly, to carefully ponder upon it, and henceforth step through the gates of Creation Skill."

Nuwa was speechless, were you overthinking it? I simply intended to have you transcribe the scripture as a punishment.

Bai Jin continued emotionally, "The disciple is grateful for the Goddess’s grace and hence meticulously designed, earnestly crafted, and forged this scepter, carving the ’Creation Scripture’ upon it. Every character engraved upon it was done with utmost care, with you in my heart, allowing me to better comprehend the Holy Scripture. Every word etched onto the scepter is as if carved into the disciple’s heart.

Goddess, even though your disciple has not transcribed the scripture ten thousand times, engraving it once with dedication surpasses the effect of transcribing it ten thousand times. Your grace in bestowing the scripture, I shall engrave it in my heart."

Witnessing the inexplicably touched Bai Jin, Nuwa’s heart sighed; unsure whether to call him naive or foolish.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, she reflected on herself; just because of a confrontation with Ping Xin, Bai Jin was implicated, punished to transcribe the scripture ten thousand times, yet he felt gratitude, investing his efforts into creating this scepter for her and even engraving the scripture upon it. Such a disposition was indeed too rare.

Throughout it all, Bai Jin never suspected that I would harm him, entirely devoted to me; meanwhile, I harbored ill-intentions. Now it seems I’m the petty one.

Nuwa suddenly smiled and said, "You have grasped my thoughts, which is good! Seeing you struggle to break through the Quasi-Saint realm, I bestowed the scripture for you to transcribe it ten thousand times, also as a way for you to contemplate the path of Creation Skill."

Bai Jin nodded repeatedly, expressing gratitude, "The Goddess’s kindness, your disciple understands. Such grace, I am endlessly grateful."

Nuwa examined the scepter in her hands, smilingly said, "Judging from this scepter, you’ve indeed put your heart into it. Since you’ve carved it so earnestly, then the ten thousand times transcribing can be forgiven.

As you yourself said, transcribing the scripture ten thousand times was never my goal. Since you’ve approached the scripture with sincerity, the transcribing is no longer important."

Bai Jin’s heart leaped with joy as he hastily bowed, "Many thanks to the Goddess!"

"But the contemplation of the scripture must not cease; you must reach the Quasi-Saint realm without delay."

"Yes!" Bai Jin nodded repeatedly in agreement, with great joy in his heart.

He then said somewhat embarrassedly, "Nuwa, this disciple has another favor to ask!"

Nuwa was in a good mood and directly asked, "What is it?"

"This disciple would like to request Nuwa to gift a pair of scrolls, inscribed with the large characters for ’Boundless Perfect Union’."

Nuwa raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Bai Jin, and asked with suspicion, "Have you found a Daoist couple?"

"Not for myself.

It’s for my junior brother Kong Xuan, who will soon marry the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Girl. So, this disciple wishes to request a pair of scrolls from Nuwa as a wedding gift!"

Nuwa said in annoyance, "Your junior brother is getting married, and you come asking me for a wedding gift?!"

"Who could help it when this disciple’s gift can hardly make a presence! I can only leverage Nuwa’s renown, flaunt a bit of power, and appeal to Nuwa for permission."

Nuwa thought for a moment and then said, "Very well! Considering the effort you put into preparing the scepter for me, I shall oblige and inscribe a pair of scrolls for you."

Bai Jin immediately expressed his gratitude and kowtowed, "Nuwa, thank you immensely!"

Finally, I can dodge the task of copying homework. Having managed to get the inscription done, I can leave now.

Bai Jin offered a bow and said, "Nuwa, as the Heavenly Court is newly established with numerous affairs to attend to, this disciple shall take his leave first."

Nuwa nodded slightly and replied, "Go then!"

Bai Jin walked towards the exit.

Nuwa’s expression subtly changed, as she suddenly thought of something and said, "Bai Jin, Ping Xin seems to treat you quite well."

Bai Jin’s heart lurched, his mind racing with countless thoughts in an instant. What did Nuwa discover? Could it be that the two goddesses have communicated? Or have I exposed myself?

With myriad thoughts speeding through his mind, Bai Jin feigned ignorance and said, "Nuwa, I truly do not understand what you mean by that!"

"Hmph~ Ping Xin once took action on your behalf against the Western Pure Land. And you claim to have cut ties with her. Could it be that you are deceiving me?"

Ping Xin took action for me against the Western Pure Land? When did this happen, and how come I’m unaware of it?

Various thoughts emerged in Bai Jin’s mind. He hastily bowed, finding an excuse on the fly and said, "Reporting to Nuwa, as a patrol officer in the Underworld, it must be because of this relationship that Ping Xin took action on behalf of this disciple." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Do you believe that?" Nuwa’s ethereal voice carried over.

After the interruption, Bai Jin sorted through his thoughts once more and earnestly replied, "I dare not conceal the truth from Nuwa. Although this disciple intends to distance himself from Ping Xin, she seems to be aware of the close relationship I have with Nuwa, and she often tries to show goodwill.

However, Nuwa can rest assured, this disciple remains steadfastly loyal to you and has no intention of accepting her overtures."

Nuwa frowned and said with a cold huff, "Knowing you are mine, she dares to vie for you? How audacious of Ping Xin!"

Bai Jin nodded repeatedly and said, "That’s exactly the reason! Nuwa, be assured, this disciple will always be your loyal Little White Crane."

A gleam of sharpness flashed through Nuwa’s gaze as she smiled and said, "Bai Jin, next time Ping Xin shows you kindness, there’s no need to refuse."

Bai Jin said incredulously, "Nuwa, you do not want me anymore."
