In the academy, when the dean saw Gu Yang pick up the Emperor's Sword, a slight smile flashed in his eyes, and in a blink, he had already disappeared from his original spot.
Off to the side, Li Yuan was taken aback, he really didn't expect that the Emperor's Sword would actually acknowledge Gu Yang.
Even though Li Yuan had only seen Gu Yang once, the intense aura of the Monster Race on Gu Yang made him almost believe that this was a Divine Beast in human skin.
He had a deep wariness towards the Monster Race.
As for those like Gu Yang who possess the bloodline of the Monster Race, he was naturally cautious.
Even if Gu Yang was recognized by the Emperor's Sword, it didn't completely dispel his suspicions.
...
Gu Yang could sense someone spying on him, but he didn't care. When he came to take the Emperor's Sword, he was prepared, as such a thing cannot be concealed from others.
With his current strength, the only ones who could pose a threat to him were Celestial Beings.
