Ryu took a breath and gave Wobbly Fairy a small bow in thanks.
He seemed to be giving out more and more of these recently, and the result only shocked Star River all the more.
…
Star River was the first to react. Ryu didn't even finish his bow before she flashed, appearing by Wobbly Fairy's side and soaring into the skies with unbridled speed.
Then, under everyone's speechless eyes, she actually launched Wobbly Fairy into the clouds above as though she was tossing away a ticking time bomb.
Before anyone could understand why the hell the woman they respected so much treated their little mascot like this, the clouds of thunder began to boom.
'Tribulation?!'
They all had the same thought. The ground quaked and many of them tumbled over, falling to their asses. The shaking boom of the skies above was enough to make these seasoned cultivators into insecure toddlers being tossed about.
