Wang Jian's mother, Bai Liqin, rode a griffin alone, with an air of regal elegance. The members of the Iron Fist were quick to follow her lead and climb onto the other ten griffins, their imposing figures fitting perfectly with the majestic birds.
When Bai Liqin offered Lady Xia a ride on the griffin with her, Wang Jian stepped in and remarked that his mother's rough riding style might not suit Lady Xia.
Although Bai Liqin raised an eyebrow in doubt, she knew her son was merely giving an excuse. After all, her riding skills were impeccable.
Bai Liqin looked at Lady Xia and then back at her son, understanding the real reason behind his words.
A knowing smile appeared on her face as she agreed with him and allowed Lady Xia to ride on the same griffin as Wang Jian and his women.
