Gungun persuaded Houtu; the Demon Sage clashed with the Demon Master (two chapters combined into one)

Quan Jiu and A Li naturally had no objection to Gungun's suggestion.

Chi You-the name held no particular meaning. Even if it acquired a derogatory meaning in the future, that would be something his conquerors attached to it afterward. For now, Chi You was simply Chi You.

After naming Chi You, Gungun exchanged a few more pleasantries with Quan Jiu and his wife, then left the tent with the other Witches, giving the family some space to speak privately.

Outside the tent, Gungun looked up at the sky and inexplicably felt weary at heart.
