He knew that when Rabbit spoke in such a lighthearted and carefree manner, it wasn't because he truly felt that way.
His words were meant for Gungun, to make Gungun believe that there was no danger awaiting Rabbit, encouraging Gungun to stay behind without worry.
With that thought, Huanglong Daoist raised his staff and sighed, "Wuliang Heavenly Venerable."
Just then, Gungun seemed to realize something and stood up to follow, but Huanglong Daoist grabbed and held him back.
Gungun turned his head and roared angrily.
Huanglong Daoist shook his head and said, "Foolish child, what good would it do to follow him? The road ahead is fraught with dangers, and powerful foes abound. If you go like this, you're just headed for doom. If you really want to help him, find Chiyou. With Chiyou's abilities, who in this world could contend with him? Protecting him, saving him, it's all within a single thought."
Gungun was stunned, then looked up at Huanglong Daoist.
