She had never truly seen an Ascendant, but she could not be more familiar with them.
The headless corpse lying inside the coffin was clearly an Ancient Great Demon, yet its aura had unmistakably become that of the Ascendant she was familiar with.
Such a situation filled her with unease.
She thought back to when the monsters had scrambled for the corpse, only taking away the headless body.
However, the head of the Ancient Great Demon had been taken away by an Ascendant.
Could it be that the head of the Ancient Great Demon in the possession of the Ascendant had established some sort of connection with this corpse?
For some reason, at that moment, Zhu Yue the Dragon Maiden had a vague epiphany.
——She could not seize and kill this corpse.
Perhaps only the Ascendant himself could handle this corpse. If she were to act now, it might be detrimental to the Ascendant.
This intuitive realization was incredibly abrupt, but the Dragon Maiden chose to trust her intuition.
