Qi'er, Don't Be Afraid.

"Daoist Lu, I heard there was an accident at the camp yesterday. A tamed Cloud Splitting Eagle fierce beast suddenly attacked Daoist Ding, throwing the scene into chaos. Is that true?"

"I was outside the camp at the time. I only heard the news after I came back. It was somewhat unexpected."
