At the thought, Old Flood Dragon's heart leaped straight into his throat.
"M... Master?"
He called out tentatively, "If it's... inconvenient... why don't we... why don't we head back?"
He had already put it very tactfully.
What he meant was, if she really was a fake, she shouldn't go courting death by testing it.
This was a formation left behind by a True Dragon.
No matter how badass she was... she probably couldn't withstand it!

Jiang Yuechu glanced at him.
She had already come this far, with only that final sheet of window paper left to pierce.
How could she possibly give up halfway?
With that thought.
