Chương 266: 266 Secrets of the Celestial Being

When Ye Lingbo's words came out, the courtyard became quiet.

Gu Yang thought to himself, surely a fight would break out now.

He was prepared, ready to unleash his divine beast incarnations at any moment. If they started to seriously fight, he would intervene in time to prevent a tragedy.

Four incarnations, just enough for each of them.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Su Ningyan, Princess Chang, and Pei Qianlan all turned their heads, all staring at him with intense gazes.

Their eyes were remarkably similar, filled with grief and self-blame.

Su Ningyan asked softly, "Is what she said, true?"

Princess Chang and Pei Qianlan didn't need to ask because they had been present at the time and heard it with their own ears — the part about them becoming Dao companions.

Ye Lingbo's words had dealt them a lethal blow.

Because what they represented was status.

Until now, Gu Yang had not given them any status.

Even a promise would have sufficed.
