The elf woman's hands trembled on her spear as she gritted her teeth in shame.
Her chest rose and fell sharply as she swallowed her pride.
For a brief moment, she hesitated, her gaze flicking between the serene man standing before her and the divine Loong bowing at his side.
Her fingers clenched around her spear until her knuckles turned white "You... will pay for this…"
Without another glance, she turned sharply and leapt into the air, water splashing beneath her feet as her body shot upward.
Looking at her dashing into the sky, Zhao Tian let out a soft chuckle "Stubborn."
The lake is now calm again. Only the faint ripples from the Loong's movement disturbed the lake's surface.
Turning slightly, Zhao Tian looked toward the creature beside him.
The Loong's enormous form coiled gracefully in the water with her scales glinting beautifully.
