Duobao: This Junior Brother-Even If You Don't Want Him, I Do

On Golden Turtle Island.

Golden Spirit Holy Mother stood outside her dojo.

After Lin Yuan, Duobao, and Huo Ling descended, she first looked at Huo Ling's shoulder.

"How is the injury?"

Holy Mother Huo Ling bowed. "Rest assured, Martial Aunt Jin Ling. It is no longer serious."
