When Willow God said this, she slightly raised her head, taking several glances at Jiang Hui.
It's not that Jiang Hui was particularly cautious, he had no guard up at all; nor was it due to Willow God's weak perception.
It was simply because she kept in mind this was Jiang Hui's territory, and from start to finish she didn't probe with her Divine Sense—it was a form of respect. Otherwise, she would've discovered the Thunder Emperor's presence long ago.
"I also came across it by a stroke of serendipity," Jiang Hui said with a smile.
There was no concealment, nor vain boasting. Of course, surprising Willow God could indeed yield Experience Points, but as the old saying goes: the ultimate form of swag is to be low-key.
"Is that so?" Willow God shook her head, "If it were so easy to stumble upon a chance to acquire a Thunder Emperor, a new Thunder Emperor would have appeared in the world long ago. There's no need for such modesty, fellow Daoist."
