I'm Sick or Something! Who Stays Up at Night to Watch This?

A young man's spirit stirred within him: a yellow dog on his left, a monkey perched on his right, dressed in fine clothes, riding alone across the Azure Clouds...

With some time to kill before nightfall, Hao Shuai sent Zhang Xiaofan on his way, then wandered around Tongtian Peak like a spoiled young master out on a stroll, leading Da Huang with his left hand and carrying Xiao Hui on his right shoulder.

Many young disciples from the other six branches, visiting Tongtian Peak for the first time, were out for a walk and marveling at the scenery.
