As soon as Ao Huang appeared, his gaze immediately fixed on Li Zhirui, and with considerable respect he said, "This must be Li Zhirui, Fellow Daoist Li?"
"Indeed, that is I. May I ask who you are?" Li Zhirui returned the courtesy, asking with some curiosity.
"Ao Huang of the Dragon Tribe."
Ao Qing, standing by, helped introduce him: "It was my cousin here who insisted on inviting Fellow Daoist to purify the Sea Eye. Now, looking at the situation, it seems he truly foresaw what was to come; otherwise, it's frightful to imagine what the Western Sea would have become."
"So that's how it is. I am honored by Fellow Daoist's high regard."
Ao Huang forced a smile, unable to hide his anxiety as he said, "The situation is urgent—would you please first examine the pollution at the Sea Eye?"
"Very well."
