Pei Yuhang pushed open the door and left the private room. At the entrance, Shang Miaoyan and Ye Liyuan, who had been waiting anxiously, both rushed forward to greet him.
"Ah Han, are you alright? Did that woman do anything to you?"
Ye Liyuan grabbed Pei Yuhang's hand, her teary eyes scanning him up and down as if afraid her Dao Companion had been wronged inside the room.
Shang Miaoyan, who was half a step behind, paused when she saw this. She pressed her red lips together slightly, a flicker of loneliness flashing in her downcast eyes, but she had already composed herself by the time she looked up again.
"...Palace Master Pei, the Saint Master offended you and Sister Liyuan just now. It was my lack of foresight."
Pei Yuhang shook his head at Shang Miaoyan's apology, unwilling to say more about his conversation with the Yin Yang Saint Master.
Especially... he couldn't let Shang Miaoyan know that Saint Master Yin had just tried to force him into becoming her Dao Companion.
