Jewel was not bothered by Josh's taunt and contemptuous remark. She sighed lightly and said coldly, "I'll say it again. Time is running out, so don't wait until it is too late and you are about to die to make a decision."
Jewel spoke in a thin and sophomoric voice, but her calm expression looked quite the opposite of her tender age.
"You've got a death wish!"
Josh's face turned sullen and dark as he felt humiliated by Jewel's attitude. Then, he roared and charged toward Jewel with the long saber in his hand. He slashed it fiercely at Jewel.
Josh was powerful. The long saber in his hand sliced the air wherever he passed by; the power was simply incredible.
"Careful!"
"Watch out—"
Chester, Dax, Yvette, and the others shouted. At the same time, they thought of taking the blow for Jewel, but they had no chance to get near her as there were too many South Cloud World soldiers.
Chester and the rest of the Carter family thought of the strange young lady as one of them because she had stepped up to help them. They could not watch as she got hurt doing that.
Jewel stood quietly and watched as Josh approached her.
Roar!
When Josh's long saber was about to slash at Jewel, a deafening dragon roar came from the distant sky. Dark clouds rolled as gale winds howled when a red dragon sped through the air and stood in front of Jewel.
The dragon was Sheryl.
Sheryl and Jewel saw that the Carter family had been besieged by the South Cloud World Army when they were arriving there. Jewel was very anxious, but Sheryl was very calm. Shandy had made it clear that the Divine Dragon Clan should stay away from any grievances in the Nine Mainland.
Furthermore, before they left the Legendary Island of Dragons, Shandy explained that the identity of the Divine Dragon Clan should be kept secret, so Sheryl hid her identity.
Sheryl could not hold back any longer when she saw that Josh had taken action against Jewel.
Gasp!
The South Cloud World soldiers were taken aback! They were speechless as they looked at Jewel!
'Who is that young lady? Why does the giant dragon protect her?'
