Douluo Continent: Starting with Self-Created Soul Rings

The egret muttered something with a hint of sourness.

He seemed quite dissatisfied that Gu Ziyi had acquired such a beautiful woman.

She also looked down on Ning Shuangjiang's behavior.

After being taken advantage of in a competition, instead of seeking revenge, he actually gave himself away to the other party.

"If she can follow Gu Ziyi, then it shouldn't be a problem for me to go, right?"

However, Ning Shuangjiang's choice made her want to go find Gu Ziyi as well.

Over the past two years, Baihe has tried to find her, but Bailu has refused every time he asked her to return.

Ever since she learned what the disciples of the Haotian Sect thought of their affiliated sects, she had no desire to go back.

She even considered persuading her father to lead the family away from the Haotian Sect.

However, she also knew very well that while joining the Haotian Sect was easy, leaving it would not be so simple.

So she didn't say anything, but she was unwilling to go back to Haotian Sect.

After Baihe tried to persuade Bailu several times, he realized that Bailu was determined not to go back, so he stopped trying to force her.

The egret got her wish, but having been wandering for so long, she actually wanted to find a stable place.

She had considered going to Gu Ziyi before, but considering her identity as the daughter of the Min clan, an affiliated sect of Haotian Sect, she felt that even if she joined, she would bring shame to the sect, let alone be able to join.

So Bai Lu didn't go looking for Gu Ziyi.

However, now that Yu Xiaogang and Ning Shuangjiang have joined the Spirit Hall one after another, she finds that it doesn't seem to have much of an impact.

It was quite a spectacle when Yu Xiaogang joined the Spirit Hall, but that was because Yu Xiaogang was the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's leader.

This time, Ning Shuangjiang followed Gu Ziyi, so there wasn't much of a commotion, was there?

It's because Ning Shuangjiang is not a core disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

So Bailu began to think that since Ning Shuangjiang could do it, she should be fine too.

After all, in terms of status, Ning Shuangjiang and she were actually quite similar.

Ning Shuangjiang is the cousin of the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Whether Tang Xiao or Tang Hao becomes the sect leader of the Haotian Sect in the future, she will be the same.

"do you want to go?"

Bai Lu bit her lower lip, caught in a dilemma.

“Go ahead! If Ning Shuangjiang dares to go, why shouldn’t I!”

However, the egret did not hesitate for long and quickly made a firm decision.

She was a decisive person by nature; otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen to leave the Haotian Sect so directly.

The reason he didn't go to Gu Ziyi before was because he was afraid of bringing shame to the Haotian Sect and the Min clan, and he was worried about putting his father in a difficult position.

Now that Ning Shuangjiang had served as an example, she was less worried.

When Gu Ziyi learned that another beautiful woman had come to see him, he was surprised again. Where did so many beautiful women come from to see him?

"White egret, it's you!"

Upon seeing Bai Lu's familiar, long, white legs, Gu Ziyi realized that it was Bai Lu who had come to find him this time.

"What brings you here? Is there something you need?"

"Didn't I tell you before? There's no future between me and your cousin. If you're here because of her, then please leave!"

In the past two years, Gu Ziyi has not paid attention to Tang Yuehua and Bai Lu, so he did not know that Bai Lu had already left Haotian Sect.

"I didn't come for my cousin, I came for myself!"

Upon hearing Gu Ziyi's words, Bailu replied.

Then she laughed and said, "You probably don't know, but I left the Haotian Sect two years ago, right?"

From Gu Ziyi's words, she knew that Gu Ziyi was unaware of her situation; otherwise, he wouldn't have mistakenly thought she had come because of her cousin, Tang Yuehua.

"You've already left the Haotian Sect?"

"What was the reason for your departure?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyi immediately looked at Bai Lu in surprise and asked her a question.

He was genuinely surprised and couldn't understand why Bai Lu would leave Haotian Sect.

"Because my father wanted to marry me off to Tang Xiao, which I didn't want, I ran away from home and had no intention of going back!"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Bai Lu's face, but she still explained the reason.

She's here to follow Gu Ziyi, so she definitely needs to make things clear!

"Bai He actually wants to marry you off to Tang Xiao?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyi finally understood why Bai Lu had left Haotian Sect.

"So you've come to find me now..."

Gu Ziyi then realized why Bai Lu had come to find him, but he was still a little unsure.

It's possible that Tang Yuehua might come looking for him after leaving the sect, since Gu Ziyi knows that Tang Yuehua still likes him.

But egrets are different!

"I...I'm here to follow you, just like her. So tell me if you're willing or not!"

Seeing Gu Ziyi's suspicious gaze, Bai Lu's cheeks flushed slightly, and then she pointed to Ning Shuangjiang behind Gu Ziyi and said.

"Little Egret, so you like him too!"

Ning Shuangjiang, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, now understood what was going on and burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"I……"

When Ning Shuangjiang saw through her thoughts, Bailu's pretty face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Ziyi.

But her expression already hinted at the answer.

"..."

Gu Ziyi was stunned, and then couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He really hadn't expected that Bailu would like him, since he had never tried to win her over.

Back when they were at Tianbao Academy, Gu Ziyi actually liked Bailu quite a bit, but he chose to target Tang Yuehua, so he didn't dare to do anything to Bailu.

After all, he had no resources at the time, so he didn't dare to pursue them all at the same time and only chose to target Tang Yuehua.

Little did he know that even without him taking any action, the egret would fall in love with him.

When did you start liking me?

Gu Ziyi almost blurted out those words, but thankfully he stopped himself in time.

"Yes, of course I do!"

"Don't worry, Egret. Since you've chosen to follow me, I certainly won't treat you unfairly!"

Gu Ziyi quickly made a statement, echoing Bai Lu's words.

Ning Shuangjiang and Gu Ziyi have already taken them in, so how could they possibly let Bai Lu go!

Gu Ziyi had secretly admired her long legs more than once before, and now that he had the chance to get his hands on them, he certainly wouldn't miss it!

And so, after Ning Shuangjiang followed Gu Ziyi, Bailu also chose to follow Gu Ziyi.

Aside from Gu Ziyi's pleasant surprise, Ning Shuangjiang was also very welcoming of the egrets' arrival.

Because she also knew Bailu's identity, they could be said to be in the same boat, so she naturally felt a sense of kinship with Bailu.

After accepting Bai Lu, Gu Ziyi did not rush to make a move on her. Instead, he spent some time getting to know her again before taking action.

Those long legs that Gu Ziyi had been eyeing for so long were finally allowed to be played with by Gu Ziyi.

Gu Ziyi's favorite way to carry it is on his shoulder.

"White egret, from now on you'll stay by my side and be my sword attendant, responsible for carrying this Blazing Peach sword for me!"

"You can use this sword to fight even when I don't need to touch it!"

After completely subduing Bailu, Gu Ziyi handed over the Soul Bone Peach Wood Sword Zhuotao to her, making Bailu his sword attendant to help him wield the sword.

In this way, Gu Ziyi wouldn't have to take care of Zhuo Tao all day long.

As his sword attendant, Bailu can use Zhuotao even when he doesn't need it.

With Zhuotao in hand, Bailu can fully utilize her speed advantage.

Aside from Gu Ziyi, no one else can use Zhuotao, but that only means they can't use Zhuotao's soul skill; they can still hold it in their hands and use it as a weapon.

This might not be of much help to other Soul Masters, but it is extremely useful for Bai Lu.

Furthermore, while the egret cannot use the two soul skills on the Blazing Peach, the sword spirit Xiao Tao inside the Blazing Peach can use them automatically.

"Really, I can use this sword?"

After taking the boiled peach, Bai Lu was immediately filled with delight.
