Yu Er nervously performed a salute, stammering:
"Hello, Sect Leader."
"Hello."
The Taixu Sect Leader replied kindly and then turned his gaze to notice the big white dog, which seemed to have been "bullied" just now, and his expression froze.
Mo Hua suddenly realized something and softly asked:
"Sect Leader, this big dog... doesn’t belong to you, does it?"
Big dog?
The Taixu Sect Leader was startled, his expression somewhat subtle as he nodded, "I suppose so..."
Mo Hua’s heart skipped a beat.

This hint of fierceness was also caught by the Taixu Sect Leader.
His gaze paused slightly, turning his head to look at Yu Er, whose hand was held by Mo Hua and who was walking away, his brow gradually furrowing...
