Sucking air through his teeth, he stared blankly at the sky and muttered, "Youth really is wonderful!"

Xi sprang to his feet, his worry evident. "Hallmaster Dao, shouldn't we go over there? Xu Xiaoshou is still fighting Kui..."

Dao Qiongcang extended a hand and pressed the young man back to the ground.
