Sitting on Lanton's back, Liang He was puzzled by the sudden flash of terror in Ace's eyes. She had indeed been bluffing him; her so-called backup plan was nothing more than an empty threat meant to scare him. But why did his expression abruptly change as if she truly possessed a secret weapon?
She wondered, "Strange, what exactly did he see?"

"SCREECH!"
Though Liang He didn't notice the anomaly, Lanton seemed to sense it. His sharp eagle eyes stared meaningfully at the sea, which had returned to a calm state, a dark gleam flashing in their depths.
"Even though I don't know what Ace discovered, since he stopped attacking, we should first..."
