A girl dressed in a gorgeous blue outfit and hat walked in, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw Bai Zhi getting out of bed.
"Hi, dear Fufu, are you worried about me?"
Bai Zhi blinked and smiled with relief, "I'm so touched~"
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fu Ningna stammered, and said somewhat flusteredly:
"I...I wasn't worried about you at all. I was just afraid that if something happened to you, no one would be able to appreciate my artistic performance!"
"Hmm, I know. It seems that in Fufu's heart, I'm just a sucker who pays money. I was overthinking it." Bai Zhi pretended to be disappointed and said in a low voice.
"Hmph... That's right, that's exactly it. I'm only after your money, don't overthink it!"
Funina tilted her head back, not letting Bai Zhi see her expression. "Besides, you were carried down. Nasida said you suddenly fainted. Hey, you don't have some kind of hidden illness, do you?"
"If you're physically ill, it'll be difficult to gain the affection of others, so I suggest you seek medical help..."
"No, I'm in great shape. I can do things like this very easily," Bai Zhi interrupted Fu Fu.
"Hey, hey, put me down!!"
Bai Zhi suddenly appeared behind Fu Ningna, then grabbed Fu Fu's slender waist and, with the power of the chicken talisman, propelled the two of them into the sky.
Chapter 511 Bai Zhi: What? I'm going to succeed as general? How come I didn't know?
"Frinina, how does it feel to fly in the sky?"
Bai Zhi held Funina as they soared freely through the sky.
"Wow, it's so high!!"
Fu Ningna glanced down fearfully, and the shrunken earth made her feel dizzy.
Although she had ridden in Fontaine's airship and also taken the shuttle ship from Baizhi's side, experiencing a series of journeys from the Earth's surface to space orbit.
But those are all vehicles underfoot, which provide a solid, down-to-earth feeling, making people feel grounded.
This experience of being held in someone's arms with thousands of feet above the ground was something she had never encountered before.
"Looks like my dear Fufu is afraid of heights too~"
"But it's okay, I'll hold you tight, after all, Fufu is a very important person to me."
When Fu Ningna heard Bai Zhi say that she was afraid of heights, she was about to retort with a haughty tone, but after hearing Bai Zhi's next sentence, her face turned red instantly.
“Wh…what important…person?” Funina stammered.
"Because, I admire your strength. You endured five hundred years of suffering for the people, playing the role of a god."
"It's no wonder the association has set its sights on you with this spirit of helping the weak. You, like those girls with the same precious spirit, are my wings~"
Bai Zhi held Fu Ningna with one arm, then used the other to gently stroke the girl's head.
"...Wait, are they all your wings?"
Fu Ningna was initially touched, but after carefully considering Bai Zhi's words, she suddenly realized something was amiss. She even disregarded her fear of heights and quickly asked.
Bai Zhi blinked. "Yes, Fu Fu, don't you think Naxida's dedication to the people is admirable?"
"And Ying, although her method was wrong, her intention was good. She's just a little bit naive and innocent, and because her elders passed away early, she went astray a little."
“You are all my wings, and this planet belongs to me. I am the one who calls the law.”
Funina:?
She even considered the legal issues; I was so moved I cried.
But the next second, a huge shadow fell on Bai Zhi's head.
Along with the wind pressure, it almost blew the angelica in the sky away, twice in a row.
"what's the situation??"
Bai Zhi looked somewhat displeased in the direction of the object that had just passed by her.
Two familiar spaceships were seen slowly decelerating and descending.
Isn't that the shuttle ship on the starport? Two boats of tourists have arrived.
Bai Zhi stopped caring and, holding Funina, flew curiously toward the landing location of the two ships.
Her main concern was who had come here. If they were tourists, this place was adjacent to Pinocchio, and the popularity of the area had been drawn away by the Dreamland. Even if there were tourists, there would only be a few scattered ones, not two spaceships.
"Could it be that group of dragon masters and their people have arrived? But... two boatloads? That's over the limit."
Bai Zhi remembered that she didn't have many conversion slots for the Dragon Masters, and the number of people accumulated over the days was definitely not enough to fill a spaceship specifically used to transport large numbers of passengers.
"Never mind, let's go down and take a look."
Bai Zhi, holding Funina, slowly landed in front of the two spaceships.
After Bai Zhi landed, the shuttle ship slowly emitted some white gas. The ship's hatch slowly opened, and the first people to step out were, just as Bai Zhi had expected, the group of Dragon Masters.
Following behind were some humans or fox-people.
Upon seeing Bai Zhi, the leader of the dragon masters immediately lit up and hurriedly ran to her, respectfully cupping his hands in greeting.
"Lady Baizhi, Dragon Master Yan Jiu, along with the other Dragon Masters and the transformed population, have come to pay their respects."
"You guys came really fast."
"Of course, this Dragon Master must have received important news, which is why he flew here at full speed."
"Huh, that sound..."
Bai Zhi turned her attention to the other side with some surprise. The smart attire, the familiar smile, and the yellow jade pendant on her chest were none other than Toppa.
"Miss Toppa? What brings you here?"
“Hehe.” Topa chuckled. “Of course, it’s the news that you’ve become a hunting envoy.”
"The news spread so fast??"
Bai Zhi wasn't surprised when this news came out. After all, the Black Tower Space Station was full of surveillance cameras, and the Divine Lord's appearance was quite a grand affair, so there were probably quite a few people who knew about it.
The speed at which this information spreads is somewhat astonishing.
“That’s right, Miss Topa from the Interstellar Peace Corporation is right. News of your display of divine power and unleashing of supreme strength has already spread.”
Dragon Master Yan Jiu cupped his hands again, "Lady Bai Zhi, congratulations on gaining the Emperor's favor and soon succeeding to the position of Immortal Boat General."
Bai Zhi:?
"I'm going to become a general, how come I didn't know?"
Bai Zhi was a little confused. Could it be that General Jing Yuan had suffered some kind of great shock and suddenly became possessed by a demon overnight?
That can't be right. Jing Yuan was only recently suppressed to the same level as the child's demonic body by the power of the Level 3 Tiger Talisman. How could he have been killed suddenly?
"You jest. Everyone knows that the Divine Lord is the embodiment of the Emperor's will, serving as proof of his authority and a powerful tool to protect the Immortal Ship."
"And the successors of the Divine Lord are all generals who oversee the military and political affairs of the Immortal Ship."
Dragon Master Yan Jiu spoke with great enthusiasm, and the Dragon Masters behind him nodded proudly, their eyes filled with fervor as they looked at Bai Zhi.
It wouldn't be accurate to say they had any particular admiration for the envoy, considering they dared to directly confront the Shence Mansion.
But the fact that Bai Zhi was granted the title of Divine Lord means that Jing Yuan, the old man who used to secretly suppress them, no longer has the title of Divine Lord. It will probably not be long before he also steps down.
And their beloved Divine Dragon Lord Bai Zhi will sit in this position.
In that case, as fellow members of the Vidyadhara clan, it would probably be much easier for us to do things that are less convenient to discuss openly, and Lady Baizhi would probably turn a blind eye out of consideration for our clan.
Moreover, a new official inevitably needs many people to assist him.
These dragon masters, who have always shouldered heavy responsibilities, are sharing the burdens and difficulties of the general and the immortal ship. Isn't it only right and proper for them?
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi's expression turned somewhat strange; she roughly understood the logic of these guys.
Logically speaking, there is only one Divine Lord of the Luofu Immortal Ship. They never imagined that their Divine Lord status was granted by the Emperor's Bow, so they mistakenly thought that they were about to become generals.
"Let's talk about this later. Those people in the back are the ones you chose to convert, right?"
Chapter 512 There are even Runren people in interstellar space?
Bai Zhi glanced at the large group of people behind Long Shi Yan Jiu and said.
"Uh……"
Longshi Yan Jiu glanced at Toppa discreetly. It's not appropriate to discuss matters like the transformation of the Vidyadhara with outsiders present.
Topa, seemingly sensing something, said, "Since this is an internal affair between Miss Baizhi and the Dragon Masters, I won't participate. Miss Baizhi, I'll wait for you nearby."
"Yes, thank you for your help, Miss Topa."
"This woman is very perceptive."
Dragon Master Yan Jiu praised her, then glanced at Funina with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "Lady Baizhi, this one..."
“Fufu is a very important person to me, there’s no need to hide it.”
"this…"
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Long Shi Yan Jiu's eyes. In his opinion, this white-haired girl, dressed in exotic clothes, was probably just an ordinary short-lived creature. How could she compare to their noble dragon descendants, let alone stay by Bai Zhi's side and hear the secret of Chi Ming?
Toppa, who had taken two steps and was about to leave, paused, and immediately realized something.
It seems Bai Zhi has taken a liking to this Ms. Funina; no wonder there's such a grand procession.
I don't know if I've managed to win her over yet. If I haven't, maybe I can help her out.
Topa resumed her steps after stopping, her thoughts racing as she walked.
"What, do you have a problem with that?"
Bai Zhi looked at Long Shi Yan Jiu with some dissatisfaction. She knew that the Chi Ming Clan had some bad habits, such as considering themselves noble dragon descendants and being unwilling to lower their noble heads and completely merge with the immortal ship.
Even if the people of the Immortal Ship are not ordinary people, but were classified as Celestial Race, it is still the same.
"No, no, your opinion is naturally the most important."
Dragon Master Yan Jiu lowered his head slightly.
"Watch your attitude next time."
Bai Zhi said in a slightly cold tone.
"Yes!"
"I won't hold this against you. The people behind you are the ones we're going to convert this time, right?"
Bai Zhi glanced at the guys behind her. Most of them were excited and a little confused about the unknown. And then there were some... Bai Zhi didn't know how to describe them. They seemed to take it all for granted.
“That’s right. Those behind us are the ones who need to be transformed this time. Please grant us the blessing of immortality and increase the number of people in our lineage of Vidyadharas.”
After speaking, Dragon Master Yan Jiu bowed slightly and cupped his hands in greeting once more.
"That's not a problem, but... they were all chosen according to my requirements, right?"
Bai Zhi looked the group of people up and down and asked in a serious tone.
"Of course! We will naturally comply with your request and will absolutely not have any other ideas!"
Master Yan Jiu immediately patted his chest and assured him that he knew what Bai Zhi was asking.
When Bai Zhi initially gave them the opportunity to transfer their spots, she said that they could choose the people, but they needed to abide by certain conditions.
First, one must genuinely care for the sake of the Vidyadharas, not for a long lifespan. Second, one must possess high moral character and not be allowed to commit crimes or have bad conduct.
Third, one must possess sufficient ability or various talents to be accepted.
The last one is that one must support Angelica dahurica and must not disobey in any way.
These requirements are not high; at least considering the long lifespan of the Vidyadharas, these requirements are essentially nonexistent.
"Hmm... wait a moment, I'll call someone over. I need to verify the quality of these people."
“Lady Baizhi, there’s really no need for that. Don’t you trust us? We’re doing everything for the benefit of the Chiming Clan. Besides, your time is so precious, there’s no need to waste it on investigating these people.”
Dragon Master Yan Jiu was still smiling, but his pupils suddenly contracted involuntarily.
"It's no trouble at all. I happen to have some free time. What, you don't welcome my inspection?"
Bai Zhi smiled and said to Master Long.
