Zhao Luzheng:...
This guy had said everything, both good and bad. What else could he say?
"Hey, could it have been a monster?!"
A flash of inspiration struck Zhuge Yun when he caught sight of Xiao Xiao.

"Sure enough, looking back on things can still lead to new discoveries."

Zhuge Yun laughed sheepishly.
