200: Let's draw!

In the garden pavilion, Chun Zhi's blush had not yet faded as she gently left Nangong Yu's embrace and stepped aside.

This was because she sensed someone approaching!

Sure enough!

Following a series of light footsteps, a graceful figure dressed in a dark ink-colored dress emerged from the garden corner, slowly walking towards them with a smile.

Her sleeves fluttered, and her dress, light and mysterious like flowing clouds and rosy dawn in the dark night, accentuated her beauty, making her seem like the Queen of the Silent Night, incomparably gorgeous.

The collar and cuffs of the dress were embroidered with complex patterns; delicate lines outlined elegant designs, giving it an exceptionally mysterious look.

The skirt closely hugged the curves of her body, showcasing Bai Qiqi's graceful figure. As she moved lightly, her exquisite silhouette swayed slightly, stirring the hearts of those who watched.

A delicate belt was fastened around her waist, embroidered with magnificent patterns using purple-gold threads, contrasting sharply with the ink-colored dress, adding a sense of nobility and dignified elegance.

The entire ensemble exuded mature charm, and worn by Bai Qiqi, this charm was amplified.

Every movement she made radiated elegance and composure, causing Nangong Yu's eyes to brighten.

Bai Qiqi's peripheral vision had been fixed on Nangong Yu. Seeing that flash of light in his eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

Nangong Yu stood up, looked at Fellow Daoist Bai, and smiled, "With Fellow Daoist's stunning beauty, wearing this outfit truly makes me feel unsteady!"

Bai Qiqi slowly walked over and chuckled, "Thank you for the gift, Qiqi likes it very much!"

"I'm glad you like it!"

Nangong Yu smiled, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He felt that Bai Qiqi seemed slightly different.

However, he didn't dwell on it and laughed, "Fellow Daoist is truly incomparably beautiful. May I ask you to move toward the flower pond so that I may use my shallow painting skills to capture this beautiful scene?"

"Then I thank Fellow Daoist!"

Bai Qiqi didn't refuse and slowly walked onto the wooden boardwalk above the flower pond.

Nangong Yu gently reminded her, "Fellow Daoist Bai, just walk back and forth once. While you walk, you may admire the beautiful scenery in the pond or gaze into the distance."

Bai Qiqi nodded slightly, her lips curving up. Having such a Prodigy willing to paint her seemed like a fortunate and wonderful thing!

Thinking this, Bai Qiqi couldn't help but smile, her eyes filled with laughter, as she happily walked along the wooden boardwalk.

Feeling joyous, even without Nangong Yu's reminder, she instinctively cast her gaze toward the flower pond and the faintly visible mountains in the distance.

Occasionally, she would raise her eyes to look at his figure!

A moment later.

Bai Qiqi returned to the pavilion, only to see Nangong Yu had already closed his eyes, a pleasant smile gracing his handsome and extraordinary face.

Bai Qiqi did not disturb him. She lifted her feet lightly, silently walked over, sat down nearby, and quietly watched the scene.

Beside them, Qiu Ye and the others were also watching silently.

However, Qiu Ye's pretty face showed a few hints of delight, purely because Chun Zhi and the others had just transmitted a message to her, saying that Young Master had declared they now belonged to him, and he would custom-design a set of dresses for them.

Hearing this news, Qiu Ye naturally couldn't hide her joy. This meant that Young Master cared about them and truly acknowledged them.

It was hard for her not to be delighted!

Just then, Nangong Yu suddenly opened his eyes. With a wave of his hand, a sheet of seemingly extraordinary Xuan Paper spread out flat in the Void Realm before him.

Seeing this, Bai Qiqi paused slightly and whispered, "Fellow Daoist, this seems to be top-grade Xuan Paper specially refined from unique spiritual materials, used by Painters to hold their works, right? Isn't it a bit wasteful to use it to paint Qiqi?"

Nangong Yu glanced back at her and smiled faintly, "If I didn't currently lack anything better, this sheet of Xuan Paper wouldn't be worthy of Fellow Daoist's peerless figure!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Qiqi's pretty face flushed slightly, and she avoided his gaze, saying no more.

Nangong Yu smiled slightly, retrieved some pigments specially made from unique spiritual materials, and began sketching the outline with his brush.

Bai Qiqi stood up and quietly moved to Nangong Yu's side, watching silently.

Chun Zhi and the other three also moved closer out of curiosity, quietly watching Nangong Yu paint.

As the painting slowly took shape, the surprise in Bai Qiqi's eyes intensified, gradually turning into shock.

What profound painting skill!

She exclaimed inwardly, her eyes shining with wonder, but dared not speak, fearing she might disturb Nangong Yu.

Before long, the outline was complete, revealing a stunning painting of a beauty gazing at the scenery.

At this point, Nangong Yu's expression grew a little more serious, and he began to add color to the scroll.

Various special pigments were applied to the scroll by his brush. He seemed not to need to think at all; his movements were exceptionally smooth, and the coloring speed was extremely fast.

In just a moment, the scene of Bai Qiqi touring the flower pond gradually appeared on the scroll.

Bai Qiqi raised her eyes and looked at Nangong Yu, a strange look flashing in her eyes.

It wasn't that she hadn't seen Painters, or hadn't watched Painters work, but when those people painted, who didn't need to ponder? Who didn't need to look repeatedly, thinking again and again?

Yet, someone like Nangong Yu, she had never seen before!

How deeply must this scene be imprinted in his heart? Only then could he paint it so fluidly?

Is he that concerned about me?

Do I really deserve this?

Thoughts raced through Bai Qiqi's mind; she had misunderstood Nangong Yu yet again.

If she knew that Nangong Yu was now a Special Grade Painter, capable of producing any painting effortlessly, even using a decaying brush to create world-shaking masterpieces, she wouldn't think this way.

Alas, Bai Qiqi did not know!

Nangong Yu also didn't know that Bai Qiqi was thinking this way, otherwise, he would definitely... well, fine!

To be honest, he didn't harbor that kind of intention toward Bai Qiqi for the time being; if anything, it was merely an appreciation for beauty!

At this moment, his expression was focused, his brush moved quickly, his movements were fluid, and the painting was nearing completion.

A moment later, Nangong Yu applied the final stroke, then lifted the brush and looked at the painting.

Within the scroll, Bai Qiqi was seen leaning against the railing, gazing out. The flowers in the pond, the beautiful distant scenery, and her elegant, dignified ink-colored dress highlighted her incomparable beauty.

Her exquisite face held a smile, her beautiful eyes were shy and timid, and her gaze seemed to hold a thousand unspoken words.

The scene in the entire scroll was lifelike, as if it were about to leap out and come alive.

In the scroll, Bai Qiqi's image was vividly rendered on the paper, seeming both still and dynamic, utterly lifelike.

If Bai Qiqi wasn't right before their eyes, Chun Zhi and the others would have thought she had been Sealed within the painting.

It was at this moment that a sudden change occurred.
