Luo Yang's back was tightly pressed against Gu Xue's chest, feeling the rhythmic, tender bounce of her heartbeat.
For a moment, Luo Yang could not think of an excuse.
The four of them sat closely together, silent.
Gu Xiang and Gu Yun were clearly catching their breath, preparing for a final battle with Luo Yang.
In other words, if Luo Yang didn't provide a reasonable explanation, he might soon face the collective attack of the three Gu sisters.
Previously, Gu Xiang and Gu Yun had confronted Luo Yang. Even though they knew Shadow Boxing, it was fraught with danger.
Moreover, they hadn't yet used techniques that could injure the Yin Spirit.
If Gu Xue also joined the battle, the outcome would be hard to predict.
Luo Yang could not accept a destructive confrontation over a misunderstanding.
"Sister Xiang, Sister Yun, please hear me out," Luo Yang was also out of breath.
"Sisters, let him speak first!" Gu Xue requested again.
Gu Xiang said nothing.
