Long Ao was incredibly frustrated. After a full day and night, Long Fu still hadn't come up with a way to deal with the Nine-Tribulation Demon Dragon.
Long Ao was growing anxious. After all, with every passing minute, no one knew what might be happening back in Kyushu.
With the Beast Tide's invasion, Kyushu was in grave peril.
Long Ao had only one fear: if the Four Great Forces failed to close the legendary passages, Kyushu would be in real trouble.
But Long Fu had already told him that the Stone Stele was his great opportunity. If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
The main reason Long Ao hadn't rushed back was a matter of timing.
The reasoning was simple. The Beast Tide invasion was set to last ten days. Seven of those days had already passed, leaving only three. Even if he returned now, he likely wouldn't be able to change anything.
That was why Long Ao had decided to stay and deal with the Stone Stele first.
"Long Fu, what's the verdict?"
