"What? What's wrong?"
Grey shook both his heads, stomping his front legs on the rocky ground with such force that it created a small cloud of dust.
Hao Xuan swiftly leaned forward and ran his hands through Grey's mane to calm him down.
"Woah Woah, relax! What's going on, huh?"
"Neigh" x2
Grey backed up several steps against Hao Xuan's will and only then relaxed a little.
Hao Xuan could feel the tension and the nervousness in Grey's muscles.
Grey had seen the Scorpion King who was the strongest Sever under Hao Xuan's control and he still hadn't reacted with such apprehension, which gave Hao Xuan quite a huge reason for concern.
But since he was already here, he didn't want to leave before at least seeing the gate for himself.
"There there, it's fine you don't have to go any further, you can go back now," Hao Xuan said in a coaxing tone while patting one of Grey's heads before recalling him back to the beast token.
