The once pristine walls were cracked and being repaired as they pulled up to the massive gate for the Strider. There were slots for the vehicle to directly connect and clearly become an additional level of offense for the city.
There was already 1 other Strider part of the wall but Lind noticed it was also damaged. Sabotage had crippled the city.
"Husband, are you not going to change back?" Chu ran her hand through his lengthy emerald hair and he shook his head.
"They laid a trap for me despite my efforts to hide. Unless I truly abandon all of you and totally change myself from the ground up, they will always find me. I am unwilling to stand aside and my harmony will always give me away. Masks are useless." He was wearing the gray robes of the Emerald Immortal but his appearance was now his natural state.
His emerald eyes looked at the broken Strider and found it was nearly beyond repair for any refiner. Whoever broke it, knew well what they were doing.
