Zhang Ze felt that he was bearing a weight inappropriate for his age.
At this moment, one shoulder carried the Old Cyan Ox, upon whose back was the unconscious Lu Chen.
On the other shoulder was Xiangfei, constantly exclaiming.
Fortunately, the two dragon steeds exercised self-discipline and did not add to Zhang Ze's troubles, or else he truly wouldn't know where to stash them.
After the ship shattered, those two quietly ran into the nearby forest to hide. They believed they were merely accomplices and likely wouldn't be targeted specifically.
And indeed, Taoist Liu didn't pursue the two dragon steeds; upon seeing the Old Cyan Ox beside Zhang Ze, he quickly unraveled the situation's ins and outs.
In his heart, he was convinced that the Emperor's assassination was undoubtedly linked to this rascal before him.
"You little brat! Where are you fleeing!" bellowed Taoist Liu.
