Jin Lu's wariness towards Tang Xian relaxed a bit, but since the two of them were still outsiders, she kept her eyes on Tang Xian without speaking.
Seeing through Jin Lu's thoughts, Tang Xian furrowed his brows and said,
"I've told you, I'm not your enemy; I just want to leave this place peacefully. Without the aid of the giant birds, my only choice is to cross the sea. Indeed, I am an outsider, but on normal days, I do love cats the most. Right, Xiaojiu?"
"That's right, that's right!" Tang Xiaojiu nodded vigorously.
Tang Xian continued,
"What exactly is the problem with this sea area? I just want to know this answer, and for this, I am willing to help you with some things."
Jin Lu became somewhat interested and asked,
"What things?"
"For example, helping you take down the Great Tengu."
"You have no grudge against him; why would you want to take him down?"
"From the moment I knew how delicious dog meat was, I had made him my enemy."
