Momo, furious beyond reason, swung her dragon claw straight at Jiang Tianqing!
Jiang Tianqing immediately panicked!
(ʘ̆ཀʘ̥̆‖) "Captain Momo! Why are you hitting us? Shouldn't you be chasing the people who ambushed us?"
"Sure, I lost Yin, and that was my fault, but I followed your orders to the letter!"
