Cheng Xinzhan was not the least bit intimidated.
After a moment’s thought he said,
“I will obey. I’ll first briefly tell you about Red Haze Island and Red Second Aunt’s background — that’s important. While I speak, if Your Highness or any of the fellow Daoists have questions, feel free to interrupt. If what I say is already known to everyone, I can skip over it.”
“Good — Youde, speak freely. Nothing is too small; we’ll listen with open ears,” the Thin Daoist replied with a smile.
Cheng Xinzhan nodded and began to relate the tale.

“Those crocodile fiends had run wild in the far sea for so long they didn’t know how to manage anything — only slaughter.
