"I was wondering before, how a mere loose cultivator could accomplish things even you couldn't?"
"Indeed." As Lu Ziyun did not shy away from the black-armored cultivator, he also joined the conversation,
"Junior Brother Shen is exceptionally talented, ranking among the top in my sect's millennia-long history. Please don't let this matter dishearten you."
"It won't." Shen Ao said proudly, "But I admit this person does have some skill."
He was much more cautious now and refrained from saying anything derogatory about Lou Yi.
At this moment, Xin Zhiqi and Jin Tingfeng publicly bowed to Lou Yi: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu, for saving us."
Seeing this, Shen Ao and others quickly followed suit, expressing their gratitude.
Lou Yi waved it off dismissively, "We all face hardships together, no need to thank me."
Seeing Lou Yi's magnanimity, Xin Zhiqi's eyes revealed a trace of obvious admiration.
