Xu Yinglian was at a loss for words.
In terms of combat ability on a scale of ten, Shushan's Jiao Xiao undoubtedly ranks ten, while Penglai's Dong You, judging by the recent response, would barely reach three or two.
However, if assessing intelligence, then this Dong You Daoist friend would score at least eight, far above that of Shushan's Jiao Xiao.
To emulate the horse racing strategy of Tian Ji, naturally, one would compete against Dong You, and engage in a battle of wits with Jiao Xiao... but sometimes there really is no choice.
"So Dong You Daoist friend does not know that person?" Xu Yinglian asked tentatively.
"Not exactly." Shi Liuli replied casually.
"How so?" Xu Yinglian frowned, "'Not exactly' know?"
"That would depend on Qiong Ying Daoist friend's perspective of what constitutes 'knowing'." Shi Liuli smiled.
"What are you two insinuating?" An Zhisu said impatiently, "How much longer do we have to stay here?"
