Speaking of which, this impersonation of Ao Ying was quite convincing.
Whether it was the statue of the Silver Dragon Goddess back in Water Calamity Hall or when he met Ao Ying in his Sea of Consciousness, she had very few Dragon Clan traits after taking human form. Apart from the small pair of horns on her head, there were no other obvious dragon features-not even that most distinctive feature, a tail.
Could Ao Ying's true body have no tail?
Whatever the case, this fake Ao Ying really did look exactly like Ao Ying. Anyone ordinary would certainly have been fooled.
Ao Zhi met Zhang Yuan's gaze without revealing any supposed true form, merely staring silently at his face with her golden dragon eyes.
For some reason.
Her stare gave Zhang Yuan the creeps. Just as he was about to say something, someone suddenly tugged at his robe. He thought it was Xie Jingxin, but when he turned, the person tugging at his robe surprised him a little.
It was not Xie Jingxin, but Ao Zhi.
Why was Ao Zhi tugging at his robe with nothing better to do?
Ao Zhi clutched the hem of Zhang Yuan's robe and, seeing him turn around, frantically signaled him with her eyes.
This was no Ghost Deity in disguise. The Ao Zhi before him was the genuine article, the Ancestral Founder of dragons, Ao Ying. Had Zhang Yuan gone mad, patting Ao Ying's shoulder?
The [Tai Xuan] down the mountain dared impersonate the Supreme Profound Mountain Venerable because the Supreme Profound Mountain Venerable had already fallen. The Supreme Profound Mountain Venerable was dead, but Ao Ying was not. Never mind assuming Ao Ying's appearance-even using her name without permission would be sensed by Ao Ying herself, saddling the offender with an enormous burden
