Upon hearing Ai Kun's words, Luo Xiu's grip on the fishing rod tightened, and his expression grew increasingly somber. The fishing rod, fashioned from the rib of a Vermilion Bird, seemed unable to withstand the power flowing from his hands. It quivered incessantly, as if it could snap at any moment. Even the air seemed affected by his mood, becoming heavy and oppressive.
Seeing Luo Xiu like this, Ai Kun suddenly became terrified. He obediently squatted on the ground, not daring to utter a sound. What kind of being is this senior? His aura is too terrifying. No, for a personage like him, I must cling tightly to his coattails.
Luo Xiu suddenly stood up. "Ai Kun," he said, "take me to Calamity Extermination Island. I'll reward you handsomely for it."
Ai Kun looked up at Luo Xiu, dumbfounded. He began shaking his head frantically, his facial muscles trembling. He was clearly terrified of that place.
Luo Xiu glanced at him. "Take me there."
