"How could Xu Yang have changed so much?" Liu Qian shook her head as she watched his retreating figure.
Nothing he did today seemed like something the Xu Yang she knew was capable of.
Yue Gui said, "Maybe he's just given up completely. The whole thing with the Alliance must have hit him hard. After it disbanded, I heard he never went back to the Sect. He was probably afraid to face anyone."
"If he could become a Pill Master, his situation would improve, but trying to become one with just a single Pill Formula... that's just a pipe dream."
Hearing this, Liu Qian couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt. "Were we a bit too harsh back then?"
She genuinely hadn't known that Xu Yang never returned to the Sect after the Alliance disbanded.
Yue Gui shook his head. "We just made the right choice. If he can't even handle this much, the Alliance would have abandoned him sooner or later anyway."
