章節 294: Storm in a Teacup

"You flatter me, Wise One," Xiao Luo said with a smile.

"Neither haughty nor humble, neither conceited nor rash. Xiao Luo, a great future awaits you!" old man Xiao Quanren held Xiao Luo's hands tightly, giving him considerable praise.

"The Wise One is right. Xiao Luo is bound to attain great achievements in the future."
