Following the direction the flood had come from, Lu Ye pressed onward at top speed, Flying Wing and Windwalk layered together.
At last, he saw the source in the distance.
It was a great river, but a section of its embankment had collapsed, leaving a breach through which vast amounts of river water poured.
Lu Ye flashed to the breach. The fiery-red wings behind him slowly folded away as he took a look, then immediately brought out Formation Flags.
