Fire Captain

Hua's father eventually died. Although Hua Qiangu was mentally prepared because of Bai Ziyang, she still felt sad when facing the reality. Bai Zihua delayed for a while and did not leave, helping Hua Qiangu bury Hua's father.

"Miss, what are your plans for the future?" Bai Zihua asked after accompanying Hua Qiangu to pay tribute to her father.

Hua Qiangu said: "I have to fulfill my father's last wish first and go to Mount Shu to find Taoist Qingwei to learn martial arts from him, and then I have to go find Brother Bai."

Bai Zihua asked: "Do you know where to find him?"

Hua Qiangu shook her head and said, "I don't know, but Brother Bai said that if we are destined to meet, we will meet each other. I think as long as I don't give up, I will always find him."

Bai Zihua asked, "Have you known each other for a long time?"

Hua Qiangu said: "Yes, it's been about half a year... He is the first person who treats me the best besides my father..."

After parting with Hua Qiangu, Bai Zihua flew all the way back to Changliu Mountain on his sword, and sure enough, he met Bai Ziyang who had returned earlier than him.

After that, the succession ceremony of the new leader of Changliu began, and he officially became the 126th leader of Changliu. Afterwards, Yan Dao passed away with relief.

Bai Ziyang did not plan to go down the mountain frequently, and stayed in Changliu Mountain to wait for Hua Qiangu to come up the mountain. With nothing to do, Bai Ziyang naturally found something to do.

Mo Yan, Bai Zihua and Sheng Xiaomo were discussing matters in the main hall when Bai Ziyang ran in holding two pieces of paper. "Brother, Boss!"

Bai Zihua asked, "What's wrong, Ziyang? What's the matter?"

Bai Ziyang walked up to him and said, "Master, look, this is the new school uniform I designed for Changliu!"

Bai Zihua took the paper and asked, "School uniform? Are they the clothes of Changliu disciples?"

Bai Ziyang smiled and said, "Yes, look at how nice it is! The clothes of our Changliu disciples have three layers inside and three layers outside, and the sleeves are so long, it doesn't look very neat and tidy. Look at the sleeves I designed, they are tied up, and there is a belt around the waist for hanging the sword. Also, the collar is a stand-up collar, which makes the neck look longer..."

Bai Ziyang was pointing and talking excitedly, and Mo Yan suddenly said angrily: "Little Junior Brother, don't make trouble! We were just discussing important things. If you don't want to participate, then that's fine, but don't come and make trouble!"

Bai Ziyang said: "Why are you here to cause trouble? This is also important to me. I have always felt that the colors of our Changliu clothes are too monotonous and not handsome! This is my elaborate design!"

Mo Yan said, "Our Changliu Xiangui clothing has remained unchanged for thousands of years. Haven't you been wearing it all the time? What is this you designed? A strange costume?"

Bai Ziyang stretched his neck and shouted, "What do you mean by weird clothes? This is called creativity, it's aesthetics! It's because we have been here for a thousand years without changing that I have to make changes. Otherwise, the immortal life would be so boring!"

Mo Yan said: "Junior brother, you have outstanding immortal talent. You are the first among all of us to break through the ninth heaven. You might as well practice diligently and strive to break through the tenth heaven as soon as possible..."

Bai Ziyang said: "Big Brother, can you please not say the same thing every time you see me? The Tenth Heaven... is very simple. I can break through if I want to... The key is that if I break through too quickly, I'm afraid you will be jealous of me..."

Mo Yan felt furious, and finally yelled, "Shut up!"

Bai Ziyang pouted deliberately and pretended to be wronged: "Every time I talk to my senior brother, he tells me to shut up before I can finish three sentences!"

Mo Yan frowned and closed his eyes. He really didn't want to see him again and yelled, "Shut up!"

Bai Zihua and Sheng Xiaomo were already used to it. Bai Zihua looked at the drawing carefully and said nothing. Sheng Xiaomo, however, waved his fan and said, "Junior brother's drawing is also very beautiful. We can try to make it later...right, Master Brother!"

Bai Zihua said: "Zi Yang, you can give it a try when you have the chance, but for now let's take a look at the situation of the Seven Killing Sect besieging Shushan."

Bai Ziyang took back the blueprint, stuffed it into his arms, and leaned over to the microscope and said, "Have the Seven Killers already besieged Shushan? Huh..."

Bai Zihua and the other two also gathered over and saw a little girl skipping towards the foot of Shu Mountain.

Bai Zihua recognized that this girl was Hua Qiangu and couldn't help but look up at Bai Ziyang. Sheng Xiaomo said, "Who is this girl?"

Mo Yan ignored him and just said, "Do you want to send disciples to Shushan for support?"

Bai Zihua said: "I'm afraid it's too late now, I'll go to Shushan first."

Bai Ziyang took advantage of Mo Yan and Sheng Xiaomo not paying attention, grabbed Bai Zihua who was about to leave and said, "Brother...Brother!"

Bai Zihua knew that Bai Ziyang would only call him brother when he had something to ask of him, so he said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Bai Ziyang handed over a small cloth bag and whispered, "Keep this for the two of you to eat!"

Bai Zihua refused and said, "You know I don't need to eat."

Bai Ziyang said calmly: "I know!"

Bai Zihua thought of Hua Qiangu, whom he had just seen in the Guanwei, and said, "Is this for her to eat?"

Bai Ziyang said: "Don't tell me you didn't plan to save Xiaogu? This doesn't fit your character."

Bai Zihua took Bai Ziyang's small cloth bag and put it away before saying, "I understand."

When Bai Zihua came back, Bai Ziyang jumped out first and asked, "How is it? How is it?"

Bai Zihua said: "I put her in a small town at the foot of Mount Shu, but she wanted to go to Changliu to find you. Unfortunately, her aptitude was too low, and she couldn't even pass the entrance exam to Changliu."

Bai Ziyang said proudly: "That's not necessarily true. I believe Xiaogu will be able to get into Changliu."

Bai Zihua shook his head. Luo Shiyi, Mo Yan's senior disciple, stepped forward and said, "Greetings to Your Excellency, Daoist Master... Your Excellency, all the sects have been waiting in the hall for a long time. Please come in!"

When they arrived at the main hall, Mo Yan and Bai Zihua sat upright while Sheng Xiaomo leaned on a chair beside them. Bai Ziyang didn't care at all that the leaders of the five sects except Shushan were sitting below and they sat as comfortably as they wanted on the large chairs. Mo Yan couldn't afford to scold him in front of outsiders for the sake of his face so he could only sigh and shake his head, thinking out of sight, out of mind and ignoring him.

Bai Ziyang was not interested in the Ten Directions Divine Artifacts, and he was impatient to listen to the various sects talking about morality and selfishness in order to avoid handing over their own sect's divine artifacts. It was only because Bai Zihua had a good temper that he would not care about their life or death if it were him.

They said they were discussing matters, but all they heard was a quarrel. Afterwards, Bai Ziyang stretched lazily and said, "I didn't sleep well!"

Mo Yan glared at him and said to Bai Zihua: "Why are you so careless? What if something bad happens?"

Bai Zihua said: "I know my limits!"

Sheng Xiaomo leaned against the railing and teased, "But my senior brother has already taken back the Sky Chain, so it's not too embarrassing!"

Mo Yan glared at him and said, "You..." He turned around and shouted to Bai Zihua, "Then how do you plan to place the Sky Chain?"

Bai Zihua said: "After I reseal the Heaven Binding Chain, I will hand it over to a sect that is suitable to protect it."

Sheng Xiaomo heard this and asked, "Do you really want to take on the responsibility of protecting the artifact yourself?"

Bai Zihua said: "Looking at the situation today, we definitely cannot join forces with other factions to protect the artifact."

Sheng Xiaomo sighed, "Sha Qianmo's skill is on par with my brother, but Zi Yang's skill should be the highest among us. If Qi Sha attacks, we may not be without the confidence of victory."

Mo Yan pointed at Bai Ziyang and said, "Right... Junior Brother, stop playing around and break through the tenth level as soon as possible. Only then can you compete with the Seven Killing Sect and Sha Qianmo!"

Bai Ziyang was sitting on the railing, swaying when he suddenly heard his name and immediately called out, "What are you doing! What are you doing? Brother, do you think this is a Chinese cabbage? You can break through just like that!"

Mo Yan said: "If you played less, you would have broken through a long time ago. Didn't you say last time that you could break through the tenth level whenever you wanted?"

Bai Ziyang jumped off the railing and walked towards his Xiaoyao Palace and said, "Okay, okay, I'm going to play... not to practice..."

"Hey...you..." Mo Yan stared at Bai Ziyang's back and wanted to call him back.

Bai Zihua said: "Let him be. The tenth level of the unity of heaven, earth and man is not so easy to break through. But I will try my best to break through as soon as possible!" After that, he left and returned to Jueqing Palace, leaving Mo Yan and Sheng Xiaomo behind.

Sheng Xiaomo looked at the two directions the two brothers left and smiled. Mo Yan turned around and pointed at Sheng Xiaomo and said angrily: "Laugh...what are you still laughing at! Why don't you help me persuade them!"

Sheng Xiaomo said with his hands behind his back: "Don't you know the tempers of your junior brother and senior brother? One is someone who can't be led away, and the other one has made a decision and no one can change it!" After saying that, he shook his head and turned back to his own Palace of Ecstasy, leaving Mo Yan spinning in circles, looking at this and that!

These past two days, Bai Ziyang was lazing around in his Xiaoyao Palace when he heard Sheng Xiaomo outside the door shouting, "Junior brother, junior brother!"

Bai Ziyang rolled over and got up and shouted, "I'm here!"

Sheng Xiaomo ran in and saw Bai Ziyang and asked, "Are you okay?"

Bai Ziyang poured him a cup of tea and asked puzzledly: "What can happen to me?"

Sheng Xiaomo stretched out his hand and said, "Look!"

Bai Ziyang saw that what Sheng Xiaomo was holding was his own birth stone. The originally neutral and peaceful birth stone was now glowing with a yellow light, dazzling and dangerous.

Bai Ziyang took his birth stone and said nonchalantly: "Hey, that's it, I knew it a long time ago!"

Sheng Xiaomo asked in surprise, "You knew?" Then he took out Bai Zihua's life-testing stone and said, "Look, this is the master's, it's the same!" As he was speaking, Bai Zihua's life-testing stone suddenly emitted a bright yellow light. Sheng Xiaomo and Bai Ziyang looked at each other and said, "It's bad, the master is in danger!" After that, Bai Ziyang took Sheng Xiaomo to Bai Zihua's Jueqing Hall immediately.

Bai Ziyang rushed into the Jueqing Palace and shouted, "Boss! Boss!"

Sheng Xiaomo followed closely behind: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother!"

Bai Zihua walked out and said, "I'm here!"

Sheng Xiaomo and Bai Ziyang said at the same time: "Are you okay?"

Bai Zihua's face didn't look too good, and he said, "I'm fine. I fell into a dream when I was in meditation just now. Fortunately, everything is fine now!"

Sheng Xiaomo was relieved to see that Bai Zihua was fine, and handed over his birth stone, saying, "Brother, look, your birth stones have suddenly shown strange signs."

Bai Zihua looked at Bai Ziyang in surprise and said, "Could it be that our life-or-death calamity has appeared?"

Bai Ziyang nodded.

Sheng Xiaomo said: "So you knew that your life and death calamity had already appeared?"

Bai Ziyang said: "Yes!"

Sheng Xiaomo asked anxiously: "Who is it? Do you still remember the master's instructions?"

Bai Ziyang said: "You will know who it is when the time comes. You should also remember that I did not agree to Master at that time."

Sheng Xiaomo suddenly thought of something and said, "You have never been able to break through the tenth level. Is it related to the life and death tribulation you two experienced?"

Bai Zihua nodded, and Sheng Xiaomo asked, "What are your plans?"

Bai Zihua said: "Follow Master's instructions and go down the mountain immediately! Ending my life and death calamity will end your life and death calamity." Bai Zihua looked at Bai Ziyang and said.

Bai Ziyang said: "You can go, I won't stop you!"

Bai Zihua went down the mountain immediately, and when he found Sisijie, he unexpectedly found Hua Qiangu. Only then did he understand why Bai Ziyang had stayed with her for half a year for no reason. It turned out that Bai Ziyang had found her a long time ago.
