Ye Mo's Crisis

The sight of this attracted quite a lot of attention. Even the roughly one dozen members of the escort party had seen what was happening. When they noticed that Ye Mo was the one being pursued by the imperial guard, their expressions shifted greatly.

"Brother Hu, do we save him or not?" asked a woman.

"Let's keep observing for now. If it is safe to do so, we will save him. If not, we might die together with him instead," Brother Hu said while frowning.

"Ye Mo, if you are allowed to escape the Heaven Wall's City, it will be too unbecoming of us, the imperial guards. I will capture you alive and deliver you to Young Master Cao. He will definitely reward me for it. With the reward I stand to gain, using this Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal on you is worthwhile," said the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm warrior with a faint smile. The other imperial guards behind him were also smiling sinisterly.
