However, after several rounds of fighting, the bandit leader's physical strength gradually declined and he was almost stabbed by Ye Jin's sword.

Fortunately, he was rescued by Shen Lebai at the critical moment and did not die on the spot.

He was very grateful to Shen Lebai for saving his life. In comparison, Ye Jinzhi was simply a despicable villain who destroyed his own bridges.

"Mr. Ye, I didn't expect you to be such a mean person who would destroy the bridge after crossing it!"

"Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"

"Don't talk too much for now, let's retreat first."

Shen Lebai originally didn't want to save the bandit leader, because he was just planning to kill Shangguan Yueyin!

But he thought that the enemy of his enemy was his friend, and saving him might be of great use.

Although we cannot expect him to eliminate all of Ye Jinzhi's men, he can at least hold Ye Jinzhi back for a while.

The most important thing right now is to lure Ye Jinzhi's men here. If they continue to stay here, the villagers here may be in danger.

Shen Lebai turned to the bandit leader and calmly analyzed: "Let's run separately, so that their people will also disperse to chase us."

"Okay, it's up to you!"

"Let's run towards the mountain separately. I don't believe these bastards know this place better than me!"

The bandit leader whispered to Shen Lebai about the escape route. He knew the terrain here very well.

If it weren't for him, Ye Jinzhi wouldn't have found this place so quickly.

Unexpectedly, he would cross the river and destroy the bridge. The bandit leader was very angry when he thought of this!

But I don’t have time to worry about these things now, the most important thing is to escape!

So the two of them ran off in different directions.

Seeing this scene, Ye Jinzhi frowned, then sneered: "Want to run? Not that easy!"

He waved his hand and his men split into two teams to chase after them.

Shen Lebai shuttled quickly through the mountains and forests, with the secret guards behind him following closely.

Suddenly, he saw a ball of fire not far ahead, as if a group of people were stationed there to rest.

He headed towards the crowded area.

The secret guards who were chasing him closely stopped when they saw those people not far away, and wanted to retreat hesitantly.

He was secretly delighted in his heart. Sure enough, these people from the Ye family did not dare to show up.

He wanted to seek help from these people directly, hoping that they could scare away or capture the Ye family members, otherwise he was worried that Shangguan Yueyin, who was still in the village, would be in danger.

As soon as Shen Lebai approached these imperial guards, he was almost captured.

Fortunately, someone recognized him and immediately brought him to the commander of the imperial guards.

How come Mr. Shen, whom they had been looking for for so many days, suddenly appeared here?

The commander of the Imperial Guards hurriedly asked, "Master Shen? Why are you here?"

Shen Lebai breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that it was someone he knew.

He hurriedly stated his purpose: "Commander, I was chased here by the Ye family. Please help me capture the Ye family members."

When the commander of the imperial guards heard this, his expression changed slightly. How could it be related to the Ye family?

Could it be that Mr. Shen’s disappearance this time was caused by the Ye family?

The Ye family is very powerful, and he doesn't want to offend them easily.

But I heard that the Emperor and the Empress will be here in person soon.

If it is true as he said, they not only found Shen Lebai but also helped him capture the Ye family members, then wouldn’t that be a great achievement?

After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, the commander of the imperial guards finally decided to help Shen Lebai.

After all, if you can really get the commendation from the Emperor and the Empress, it will be a rare opportunity for promotion.

So, he waved his hand, and led his imperial guards to follow Shen Lebai towards where the Ye family's secret guards were.

He guessed that the secret guards who had just chased him would definitely go back to report to Ye Jinzhi.

Ye Jinzhi would definitely withdraw those who were chasing the bandit leader and turn to find Shangguan Yueyin, threatening him with her life.

Without further delay, they must go back quickly!

On the other side, the bandit leader relied on his familiarity with the terrain and made a circle with his secret guards.

But suddenly, the secret guards who were chasing him suddenly retreated and disappeared.

How is this going?

He immediately became suspicious. Could it be that the boy was caught?

But if Shen Lebai was arrested, shouldn’t more people come together to arrest him?

Or was he just too powerful... so Ye Jinzhi gave up the idea of ​​killing him?

No! He should go back and take a look!

After all, that kid just saved his life...

They are much better than the despicable villain Ye Jinzhi who crosses the river and destroys the bridge. At least he is loyal!

No matter what, I still have to go back and take a look...

Moreover, his brothers all died at the hands of Ye Jinzhi, and he must avenge them!

When the Ye family's secret guards saw the imperial guards coming, they immediately panicked.

Ye Jinzhi was very angry with the bandit leader at this moment. If he hadn't told Shen Lebai the direction to escape, so many imperial guards would not have been attracted!

Damn it!

The Ye family's secret guards hurriedly protected Ye Jinzhi and evacuated quickly. If Ye Jinzhi was caught, it would be the end...

These secret guards are all well-trained assassins. Even if they are caught, they will immediately commit suicide by taking poison, so there is no need to worry about them.

Ye Jinzhi adjusted the mask on his face. As long as no one saw his face, there was no evidence to prove that he wanted to kill Shen Lebai.

Seeing that the Ye family's secret guards were protecting Ye Jinzhi and trying to escape, Shen Lebai shouted, "Where are you going!" and led the imperial guards to chase after them.

Although the Ye family's secret guards fought desperately, they were ultimately outnumbered.

Seeing that he was about to be caught up, Ye Jinzhi made up his mind and took out a smoke bomb from his arms and threw it out.

In an instant, thick smoke billowed, obstructing everyone's vision.

He took the opportunity to escape to the mountain with the remaining secret guards.

When the smoke cleared, Ye Jinzhi and others had disappeared.

Shen Lebai was filled with resentment and was just feeling annoyed when the bandit leader rushed over.

"Chase them! Don't let them get away!"

"I know where those little bastards ran to, come with me!"

Shen Lebai glanced at him, nodded and followed him.

The bandit leader led Shen Lebai and the imperial guards through the woods. Based on his understanding of Ye Jinzhi in the past few days, he guessed that he would only run in this direction.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for them to discover the escape traces of Ye Jin and his group.

Everyone quickly followed the trail, and soon they saw Ye Jinzhi and others not far ahead.

Ye Jinzhi heard the noise behind him, turned around and his face suddenly changed.

He didn't expect that they were still chasing him closely. At this moment, he had no other choice but to lead his men to continue fleeing forward.

Ye Jinzhi looked up at the dark sky in despair. He knew that he was probably doomed this time, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

The secret guards beside him must protect their master and ensure his safe departure.
