Yu Ke set out from the Outer Sect dormitories.
Onward he went!
All the way to the Southern Courtyard.
At the street entrance, he saw an Outer Disciple riding a tall black horse. Its coat was as smooth as black silk, and its imposing frame stood twice as high as an ordinary horse's.
Streams of white vapor burst from its nostrils.
Its four hooves were powerful. Fine black scales showed faintly beneath its skin, and its bulging muscles were hard and strong.
The horse whinnied!
A small, sharp horn protruded slightly from its forehead.
The Outer Disciple astride it held his nose in the air, sweeping his gaze over the people around him.
With a smug flick of his whip, he
shot past Yu Ke and the other pedestrians like wind and lightning.
Yu Ke's eyes followed the horse, marveling at its extraordinary tail. Thick as a crocodile's, it dragged along the ground.
It was a Dragon Horse.

How strange!

Yet!
Xie Wanwan had always done things her own way. Even with immense wealth, she might not show it
