Dai Youheng also clearly felt that wondrous resonance. The degree to which their soul power mingled far exceeded the threshold for an ordinary Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
He sensed that if they continued, they might trigger an uncontrollable fusion of soul power right there. So he took the initiative to release her hand.
The dark gold and pure gold light receded like a tide, and the two martial soul phantoms slowly dispersed. The underground arena returned to its earlier desolation.
"Now do you understand?" Dai Youheng looked at Ye Guyi, whose eyes were still somewhat dazed, and said calmly, "I'm not an Evil Soul Master."
Ye Guyi came to her senses. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head in embarrassment, her voice much gentler. "Y-

She was straightforward and upright by nature, and once she realized her mistake, her apology was entirely sincere. Someone who could resonate so deeply with her Holy Angel martial soul could never be an Evil Soul Master.
"It's fine, as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up. Farewell." Dai Youheng smiled faintly. Without another word, he turned and headed toward the exit with Xu Jiujiu and the others.
Xu Jiujiu took a long look at Ye Guyi, who remained standing there in a daze. Her gaze was complicated, but in the end, she said nothing and followed Dai Youheng.
"Ah-wait-" Ye Guyi instinctively took a small step forward and raised her hand, wanting to call Dai Youheng back, but the words
reached her lips, and she no longer knew what to say.
Ask his name? Thank him for understanding? Or discuss that wondrous resonance just now?
In that brief moment of hesitation, Dai Youheng and the others had already disappeared around a bend
