At the end of this conversation, Little Xiuzi gave a little assist.
Clearly... he had already talked with the Red Dragon once.
"Finished talking?"
Little Xiuzi glanced in the direction the Red Dragon left and spoke first, "Congratulations on the Breakthrough."
"Finished talking."
Gu Shen listened, feeling a hint of sarcasm, and said helplessly, "There's nothing much to congratulate."
"Do you need my help with what's next?"
Bai Xiu transmitted his voice, "Killing the Vermilion Bird is no small matter. If you're worried about unexpected events... I can wait outside [Tanyao]."
Compared to the previous sentence, this one sounded more like sarcasm.
Gu Shen grinned, admitting, "If it was before the Breakthrough, I would have called you. You do the killing, and I'll watch. But now... if you are willing, you can come with me; I'll do the killing, and you do the watching."
"Since you say you can kill, there's no need for me to come along. It's just a dead bird, nothing much to see."
