The voice of Taotie rang in his ear, a transmission through Divine Sense.
Xu Lai's hand, holding the soup ladle, paused for a moment before recovering. He spoke indifferently, "Hmm, go on."
"This..." Taotie hesitated. "Divine General Baize didn't elaborate. He just mentioned that there were some leads."
Xu Lai pondered, "It just so happens I'm returning to the Heavenly Court today. I might as well check it out."
"I'll come with you!" Taotie said anxiously. "I'll be right there, The Supreme Emperor! I'll wait for you at the foot of Mount Haitang!"
Faintly, Xu Lai heard Taotie's voice, "Miss Liu, the Supreme Emperor has an urgent matter that requires my assistance."
Xu Lai's face darkened. That scoundrel. He's actually using me as a shield.
After simmering the fish soup for Ruan Tang and making breakfast for Yiyi and the others, Xu Lai left the kitchen. He then departed from Earth with Taotie, who was already waiting at the foot of the mountain.
