Fire Captain

Bai Ziyang watched Hua Qiangu slowly fall asleep.

"System!" Bai Ziyang closed his eyes and called the system again.

"Ding! Dear host, your thoughtful system is at your service!"

Bai Ziyang said: "I'm not in the mood to argue with you. Do you have anything good that can save Xiaogu?"

System: "No!"

"…………" Bai Ziyang asked: "Can we borrow it from another world?"

System: "Our next world is not a fairy world, so..."

Bai Ziyang said: "Shouldn't Xiaogu be my life-or-death calamity? Why is this happening? Why am I not hurt at all..."

System: "This is your calamity, but she blocked it for you. This is the result of her sincere prayers. Hua Qiangu got what she wanted. You should respect her decision."

Bai Ziyang looked at Hua Qiangu's sleeping face and asked, "Is there any other solution?"

System: "Gather the ten great artifacts and summon the dragon... Oh no, it should be to unlock the seal and obtain the power of the wild. Then who can hurt Hua Qiangu? Isn't this your original plan?"

Yes, this was Bai Ziyang's original plan. For this reason, he had always focused on the dual cultivation of Hua Qiangu's spirit and body. However, he gradually gave up this idea. He thought that he could protect Hua Qiangu, fight for her and protect her from the wind and rain, and...

In fact, it was just Shan Chunqiu and Yi Xiujun who were stirring up trouble behind the scenes. Didn't Yi Xiujun think that Hua Qiangu was Bai Zihua's life and death tribulation? When the time comes, tell him that Bai Zihua's life and death tribulation has been resolved, and see what he will do. As for Shan Chunqiu, didn't he just want the power of the ancient times? I will make you see it but not touch it. Bai Ziyang clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

The next day, after Bai Zihua had seen Hua Qiangu, Bai Ziyang suddenly said, "Brother, have a drink with me," and took out two wine jugs.

Bai Zihua paused for a moment, then stayed and drank opposite Bai Ziyang.

The two bottles of wine that Bai Ziyang had were not ordinary wine. They were the thousand-year-old peach blossom wine brewed by Zheyan back then. Even a god might get drunk after drinking it, let alone Bai Zihua who was not good at drinking normally. With Bai Ziyang's intentional or unintentional persuasion to drink, Bai Zihua was already a little tipsy in a short while.

Bai Ziyang said, "Brother, I want to use your Liuguangqin to play a soothing song for Xiaogu. After all, it is a divine instrument, so it should be more effective."

Bai Zihua thought it made sense, and without hesitation, he took out the Liuguangqin from the Xu Ding. Bai Ziyang sat on the ground, took it in his hands and started playing. It was indeed a soothing song, but Bai Ziyang changed the tune later, which could make the listener gradually fall asleep. If no one disturbed them, they could sleep for seven days and seven nights.

Bai Ziyang looked at the two sleeping people, walked to Bai Zihua, cast a spell and took out the Huansi Bell that Taibaimen Feiyan had given him from Bai Zihua's Xu Ding, then turned and left Xiaoyao Palace.

After leaving Changliu, Bai Ziyang did not rush to look for other artifacts, but went to the Seven Killing Palace. With Bai Ziyang's skills, he met Sha Qianmo without alerting any soldiers.

Sha Qianmo was in seclusion, but he noticed Bai Ziyang as soon as he arrived and said, "Bai Ziyang, how come you have time to come and see me today?"

Bai Ziyang appeared in front of Sha Qianmo and said, "I should have thought that you were in seclusion again."

Seeing Bai Ziyang's expression was not right, Sha Qianmo couldn't help but tease him, "Hey, what's wrong? Worrying will give you wrinkles."

Bai Ziyang said directly: "Xiao Gu is in trouble."

Sha Qianmo's expression changed and he said, "What's wrong with the little one?"

Bai Ziyang said: "Shan Chunqiu attacked Yuzhuo Peak and obtained the Bu Yuan Ding. He then plotted against Xiaogu. Now Xiaogu has been poisoned by Bu Yuan Ding and is in danger."

Sha Qianmo gnashed his teeth and said, "Shan, Chun, Qiu! I really should kill him!"

Bai Ziyang said: "Now is not the time to talk about this. I need your Exiled Immortal Umbrella and the Bu Yuan Ding in his hand."

Sha Qianmo said, "Okay, no problem." He took out the Exiled Immortal Umbrella and said, "Bu Yuanding is in Shan Chunqiu's hands. I will call Shan Chunqiu back now."

Bai Ziyang took out the Liuguangqin and handed it to Sha Qianmo, saying, "I know you've always wanted to play a song on it. I have something to do in the next two days. I'll leave the Liuguangqin with you. I'll come back to get it when I'm done."

Sha Qianmo asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Go get the Floating and Sinking Pearls and the Xuanzhen Ruler..." Bai Ziyang said this and disappeared.

Bai Ziyang first went to the Jiuxiao Tower in Tianshan Mountain, took the Xuanzhen Ruler inside, and then used the Bugui Inkstone to create a time difference, and arrived at Penglai Island when no one knew about it. Bai Ziyang had long disliked Ni Qianzhang of Penglai, and it was just right to settle the old and new accounts at the same time. He beat Ni Qianzhang up, took out his Xu Ding, took the Fuchen Pearl and left. Oh, by the way, before leaving, he settled Ni Qianzhang well, so that he would not be killed again by accident. Bai Ziyang said that he would not take the blame for this.

When they returned to the Seven Killings Palace, Sha Qianmo had already prepared the Exiled Immortal Umbrella, Bu Yuanding, and Liuguangqin. When he saw Bai Ziyang, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to collect all ten divine weapons?"

Bai Ziyang said: "Yes, now the only way to save Xiaogu is to gather other artifacts and summon the Yanshui Jade back to its place."

Sha Qianmo said, "But within two days, everyone in the world will know that it was you, Bai Ziyang, who stole the artifact. You will bear the stigma for the rest of your life and be hated and misunderstood by everyone. Aren't you afraid?"

Bai Ziyang smiled and said, "What's there to be afraid of... The thing I feared the most has already happened. There is nothing that can scare me anymore."

Sha Qianmo waved his sleeves, handed the artifact to Bai Ziyang, and said, "If that's the case, then go ahead. Even if you are hunted by everyone, the door of my Seven Killing Palace will always be open to you."

Bai Ziyang curled the corners of his mouth and smiled in a rogue way, as if he had not done something earth-shattering, but just played a small prank.

Bai Ziyang returned to the outside of Changliu Mountain, found a secluded place, took out the artifact and waited quietly. Not long after he waited, a man came alone.

"I didn't expect that the divine weapons that have been fought over for so long by the three realms, even launching wars again and again, could be collected so easily by you." The person who came was Shufeng, a disciple of Changliu.

Bai Ziyang said: "Not yet, we still need the Yanshui Jade."

Shuo Feng asked: "Why do you want to collect these ten artifacts? Is it also to release the demon god and obtain the power of the primitive world?"

Bai Ziyang shook his head and said, "Xiao Gu was poisoned by Bu Yuanding, and only Yanshuiyu can cure it."

Shuo Feng was stunned when he heard this, and after a long while he murmured to himself: "So this is the meaning of my existence..."

Bai Ziyang took out the magatama that he had worn around Hua Qiangu's neck and said, "I don't know what the meaning of your existence is. I only know that the meaning of my existence is to let Xiaogu live well and happily."

Shuofeng looked at Bai Ziyang, and finally said: "Forget it... I originally jumped out of this stone... The day when the whole gathers is the day when I will die... I am originally a piece of stone. If I can save a life when I die, it will not be in vain for me to come to the world." After saying that, he took the magatama and turned into a stream of light and drilled into the magatama. The Yanshui Jade was finally complete.

Bai Ziyang put away the artifact and returned to Xiaoyao Palace. Bai Zihua was not in the palace. Bai Ziyang did not care about Bai Zihua's whereabouts. He only felt relieved when he saw Hua Qiangu still lying on the bed obediently. He stepped forward and placed one hand behind Hua Qiangu's head and the other hand under her knees. He carefully picked up Hua Qiangu and was about to leave. As soon as he reached the door of the palace, he saw Bai Zihua blocking the door.

"Get out of the way!" Bai Ziyang could only say this as it was inconvenient for him to take action while holding Hua Qiangu.

Bai Zihua frowned and said, "Just now, Tianshan and Penglai Island reported that you stole the Xuanzhen ruler and the Fuchen Pearl?"

Bai Ziyang nodded and said, "I did it, but I don't have time to explain it to you now. Let's talk about it when I come back." After saying that, he was about to walk around Bai Zihua.

Bai Zihua stepped forward to stop Bai Ziyang and said, "Ziyang, don't make the same mistake over and over again!"

Bai Ziyang was about to leave without saying anything, but unexpectedly, Mo Yan and Sheng Xiaomo came hurriedly with some Changliu disciples. Mo Yan pointed at Bai Ziyang and said, "You evil creature, you actually dared to come back! Why don't you hand over the artifact quickly."

Bai Ziyang said: "I can't give you the artifact yet, I still need it."

Mo Yan made Bai Ziyang so angry that his hands were shaking. He pointed at Bai Ziyang and was speechless. Seeing this, Sheng Xiaomo couldn't help but ask, "Junior brother, what happened that made you want to snatch the artifact?"

Bai Ziyang frowned as he looked at these people, then he made a hand gesture to summon the Inkstone of No Return and immediately left Changliu and disappeared.

Bai Ziyang came directly to the east of the East China Sea. In order to prevent being found by Bai Ziyang, he was afraid that he could not use his magic power in the short term. He put Hua Qiangu on the ground, took out the Yanshui Jade and placed it on Hua Qiangu's forehead. Seeing the Yanshui Jade absorb the toxins in Hua Qiangu's body, Hua Qiangu's complexion gradually improved.

Seeing that Hua Qiangu had not woken up after being detoxified, Bai Ziyang took the Yanshui Jade, used his magic power to gently take a drop of blood from Hua Qiangu's finger, and dripped it on the Yanshui Jade, and at the same time took out the other nine magical artifacts.

The Yanshui Jade stained with Hua Qiangu's blood flew into the air first, and the other nine divine weapons followed one after another, forming a circle in the air. For a moment, the sky and the earth changed color, and a black hole slowly appeared in the originally azure and cloudless sky. It was a huge black hole, as if it was going to absorb everything under the world.

Bai Ziyang calmly watched the horrific scene in front of him, without any fear, his expression did not change, and he was also satisfied that all this was caused by him. From afar, he saw the various sects that appeared on the edge of the East China Sea and slowly approached. The first to arrive must be Bai Zihua and the Changliu disciples. Some people wanted to join in the fun, and naturally some people did not want to. Bai Ziyang called for the sects that did not like to join in the fun... It was a blessing to be able to save his life!

Bai Ziyang didn't care about the disciples from various sects who were sucked into the void, or Bai Zihua who was busy rescuing people. He was only focused on watching Hua Qiangu who was about to wake up.

"Xiao Gu! Xiao Gu!" Bai Ziyang called softly.

Hua Qiangu slowly opened her eyes and just woke up. She didn't know what happened yet. She looked at Bai Ziyang in confusion and said, "Master?" She turned around and looked around and asked, "Master, where is this?"

Bai Ziyang said: "This is the East China Sea!"

Hua Qiangu asked doubtfully: "Donghai? Master... eh... am I poisoned?"

Bai Ziyang said: "Master has already helped you solve it."

Bai Ziyang saw Hua Qiangu trying to get up, so he stepped forward to help her up, "Master, what are we doing in the East Sea?"

Bai Ziyang looked at the empty hole in the sky and said, "Master wants you to help him get something."

Hua Qiangu rubbed her head and looked up with Bai Ziyang. She was startled when she saw it and exclaimed, "Master, what is that?"

Bai Ziyang said: "That is the Void Cave, which contains the power of the Primordial World."

"Primordial power?" Hua Qiangu exclaimed. "Who opened the void and released the primitive power?"

Bai Ziyang said: "It's me."

Hua Qiangu was startled and subconsciously asked: "Why?"

Bai Ziyang turned around and looked at Hua Qiangu and said, "Don't worry about why now. The power of the great wilderness must not fall into the hands of people with bad intentions. So, Master Xiaogu wants you to take the power of the great wilderness. Can you do it?"

Hua Qiangu looked directly into Bai Ziyang's eyes and said, "Since Master has given the order, I will not refuse even if I die."

"Okay!" Bai Ziyang said, and then he held Hua Qiangu's arm and sent her into the void cave with force.

Hua Qiangu looked at Bai Ziyang, and with the help of Bai Ziyang's strength, she turned around and flew into the void cave without hesitation.
