That night, when Xueshuang quietly walked out of the room carrying a baggage, a gust of cold wind hit her face.
The moonlight in the sky shines brightly on the earth.
She came to Shen Jie's room at the same time as usual, as if nothing had changed.
But she knew that if she left this time, she might never be able to return to this place.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Shen Jie practicing moving flowers and jade indoors. It felt as if the wind was moving and there was no sound. It was probably the third level of moving flowers and jade that had reached the level of perfection.
He completed the entire move quickly, with some sweat still on his face. Only then did he bother to say to her: "You're here."
She stood in front of the closed door, without any intention of going inside, and asked, "Is everything packed?"
"Of course, we're leaving now," he replied.
He grabbed a baggage from the quilt on the bed, quickly wrapped it around his back, picked up the sword and rushed towards it. Xueshuang seemed to move in one go.
Since the night Jiang Feng left, Shen Jie began to pay attention to the situation of secret guards outside at night.
Because they had the experience of being caught while escaping twice before, they were quite familiar with escaping at this time. The two of them climbed the three hills behind the door without encountering any obstacles.
Ahead came the junction of a forest and a small lake.
The vegetation there is fragrant and the fragrance is astounding to your nose. Scenes like this can be seen everywhere in Yihua Palace.
If you don't pay attention and walk over, you will easily be spotted by the two night guards under the eaves.
"Go that way." He whispered to the girl behind him and pointed to the bushes on the right.
Along the way, her eyes were always solemn.
The ground under your feet is obviously much softer. If you don't have martial arts skills, you are likely to sink directly into the swamp below and be unable to extricate yourself.
However, for these two third-rate masters, the internal energy circulated in their feet and they could walk on flat ground.
Although the sound was very soft, the speed was very fast, and it still brought up a breeze. The continuous chirping of night insects obviously stopped immediately.
He had never been to this location before and thought nothing happened. Unexpectedly, he alerted the secret guards here the next moment.
"There's someone there," a woman shouted.
Tonight's moon easily passed through the fast-moving light clouds blown by the wind.
As long as Jiang Feng is discovered, the two palace masters will be able to catch them very quickly given their martial arts level.
"There really is someone." A woman walking through the darkness spotted the two people running quickly towards the end of the swamp at a glance.
She whistled, and two other girls in light cloud dresses quickly emerged from the eaves of the flower bed next to them.
These people were obviously aggressive and fast, but Shen Jie and Xueshuang were not slow.
They are all third-rate masters, but Shen Jie's magic power is several times deeper than the others. With such a long period of practice, his Wind-like Qing Gong has become more and more sophisticated.
However, Xueshuang was obviously much slower, so he could only lend her some strength.
Seeing that the distance was getting further and further away, people in the pear garden in the courtyard ahead heard the news and came after them.
Now there is a blockade in front of us, and there are troops chasing behind us.
"What should I do?" Xueshuang had an innate fear of Yihua Palace. Seeing this situation, she felt a little panicked for a moment.
"Don't stop, I'll stop them," he said.
He immediately met the two people in front of him. He used his extremely skillful movement to transfer flowers and jade. When the two people in front came with swords, a series of mana phantoms unfolded extremely skillfully. The sword momentum was instantaneous. It was bounced back.
Sure enough, as he thought, these people were unable to resist even a single move under his own hands.
It would have been unimaginable before.
Although everyone can learn the first three levels of Yihua Palace and Palace Girl, most of them can only learn the first level, and many of them are not proficient in it, like Xueshuang who can learn the second level. It has been able to perform some tasks directly assigned by the palace owner in the central area.
Such peerless martial arts is so easy to practice. If everyone could practice it, she would not have become the invincible martial arts master in Yihua Palace long ago.
Xueshuang also saw this scene. She had never fought against Shen Jie before, but she didn't expect that he would be so powerful now, and she couldn't help but feel a little more confident.
The moment he was discovered, more than a dozen young girls came from various places and ran for nearly seven or eight kilometers.
These people are chasing after them, and they now know that there are two more traitors in Yihua Palace. If the two of them escape and the palace owner comes back to blame them, they may die miserably.
As long as someone can come forward, he will not use any ordinary martial arts and immediately perform the transfer of flowers and jade.
Even though the weather was quite cold, after running away for such a long time, Shen Jie and Xueshuang were all wet.
"There are still three kilometers ahead before we can leave the outer wall of Yihua Palace." Xueshuang was holding his hand, and the wind in her ears kept whistling.
Especially now that he was running away like this, and the figure of the man in front defeated the people who blocked him time and time again, this Shen Jie suddenly became much more majestic in her eyes.
"Don't let up." He glanced at the crowds of people chasing after him. At this time, he was most worried that if a second-rate master caught up with him, he would not be able to resist at all.
I don't know if he was lucky or if he made good judgment. After Jiang Feng's news was discovered, most of the experts from Yihua Palace were transferred there.
What remains are some peripheral forces.
However, these people are obviously not easy to mess with, and they are relentless in their pursuit.
A round of fireworks bloomed in the sky, and together with the moonlight, it illuminated the ground under our feet a little brighter.
Several kilometers away, a giant city wall seven or eight meters high lay in front of us.
At this moment, Shen Jie felt a sudden feeling that made his heart palpitate. He had just reacted.
The flying knife had reached a distance of two meters in front of his forehead.
He quickly moved away.
This sword light still scratched a wound on his cheek.
Fortunately, he immediately used his right hand to rotate the girl behind him in a slight arc, narrowly avoiding it.
Xueshuang behind said in panic: "Ye Xinlan. This woman is extremely powerful with flying knives, and she is already at the level of a second-rate master."
Unexpectedly, what was supposed to come would still come, and there was no way to escape. Shen Jie found that as long as he had a premonition of danger, it would basically appear.
This woman in dark green attire was standing more than a hundred meters in front of him, and she was not in a hurry to step forward.
In her opinion, two third-rate masters were almost easy to catch. She was holding a flying knife in her hand, and she seemed to deliberately reflect the light of the knife towards the two people in front of her through the moonlight.
The man felt that he was powerful. If he didn't come forward to meet him, Shen Jie would not be stupid enough to stop. A large group of women behind him would soon surround the two of them.
He led Xueshuang and quickly rushed towards the dense flowers and plants on the right side.
"This is not good." Ye Xinlan sneered, and his figure moved at an alarmingly fast speed.
The distance between the three people was quickly closing, which startled Shen Jie. The girl Xueshuang on his side looked pale, and she felt like she was suffocating even when she breathed.
"Run outside quickly and I'll deal with her alone." Shen Jie said to the woman next to him.
He let go of Xueshuang's hand and turned around quickly, but he didn't move in place. Shadows circulated around him, like a purple lotus.
At this time, Ye Xinlan dragged several shadows and attacked them almost instantly. When she waved the long sword in her hand, there was a deafening sound of wind.
The two of them exchanged more than a dozen moves in a short time, but she was completely unable to do anything to him. Instead, it seemed like he was attacking her, and she had to keep parrying him.
"If you let Yao Yue know that a man like you has reached the third level, what will she think?" Ye Xinlan snorted coldly.
Although she didn't try her best, when she thought that this person was in a lower realm than her, her mood instantly became particularly bad, as if she was offended by a junior.
Shen Jie didn't have time to speak, but he knew that speaking would make him die faster.
While she was talking, Shen Jie had already moved several hundred meters toward the city wall while fighting back, even though his movements didn't stop much.
"If you want to run away, there's no way." Her movements became faster and faster.
After dozens of more moves, this man was not as fast as before. It was obvious that his internal strength was about to be exhausted, and she had only exhausted about half of it.
The move of "moving flowers and catching jade" is powerful, but it consumes a lot of internal energy. Otherwise, it would be impossible to become stronger when encountering a strong one and leapfrog the challenge.
For the first time, she tore open several wounds on his body. The package behind him could no longer be carried, and clothes were scattered on the floor.
Ye Xinlan was joking. She saw the muscles exposed in his torn clothes. They were so strong and powerful.
"It's quite beautiful. No wonder someone dares to risk his life to teach you."
The man she was fighting with didn't speak much, and his expression was all concentrated on him, which made her feel very happy. Such a man made people like him very much.
She stepped on him, and Shen Jie felt a sharp pain in his chest.
He took advantage of this retreat and used his internal strength to climb up the city wall. He stepped on the stone bricks several times and reached the mid-air downwards outside.
In his peripheral vision, he could see a large area of dense primeval forest.
Ye Xinlan, like the mouth of the tarsus, had no chance to let him relax for a while.
"Boy, let me tell you, if you listen to me, I will let you go." Ye Xinlan said.
There was something strange on Shen Jie's face, but he didn't dare to stop. This woman seemed to have done it on purpose. His shirt was about to be torn off. He immediately asked: "What do you want?"
Hearing him speak, she slowed her attack slightly and said to him: "It's very simple. You will be my little master from now on and I will let you go. I can tell Yihua Palace that you fell off the cliff and died. This way you won’t be endlessly hunted by Yihua Palace in the future.”
Shen Jie felt a little disgusted when he saw her looking as comfortable and proud as an old witch in her thirties.
They both hit the dense forest at the back, where even the moonlight couldn't shine in.
Shen Jie took this opportunity and immediately moved the three layers of flowers and jade to wit, and instantly rebounded all Ye Xinlan's attacks.
She didn't expect that this person would dare to treat her like this now.
The man fled the area relying on the forest.
