In the mountains and fields, the dew is heavier.

The mountain road was difficult to travel on, and it was now late at night and dark. Moreover, Bai Zhiyuan's body had not yet fully recovered. She wanted to escape, which was already dangerous, and the large number of guards behind her were about to catch up.

Bai Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat, and she ran faster and faster. She didn't know where to go until she ran towards a broken wall. With the help of the faint firelight behind her, she could barely see clearly. She hurriedly reined in her horse and almost fell into the abyss.

The broken wall was right in front of her, towering into the sky. It might be a nice view during the day, but it was pitch black at night, hiding the scenery below. Bai Zhiyuan couldn't see clearly at all. She stood in front of the broken wall for a moment. Was she really in such a dangerous situation today? With pursuers behind her and a broken wall in front of her, how could she escape?

However, she didn't think too much about it. She jumped off her horse and fled in the darkness. If it were a normal day, she might be able to draw her sword and fight, but her physical strength had not yet fully recovered. Even if she fought hard, it would be like an egg hitting a rock.

Bai Zhiyuan decisively abandoned the horse and poked the horse's butt hard. The horse raised its hoof in pain, neighed loudly, and then fell into the endless abyss.

Behind me came the sound of reining in horses: "Over here! Quick!"

"It seems to have fallen off a cliff, someone come——"

Bai Zhiyuan took advantage of the chaos and fled and hid in the darkness, feeling his way along the mountain wall on foot.

It was a dark night, the wind was blowing hard on the mountain, and Bai Zhiyuan had a hard time walking in the wasteland covered with weeds.

On such a night, Bai Zhiyuan suddenly remembered that when she was in the Northern Territory, it was also on a mountain like this. She was surrounded and attacked by the Northern Territory Prince Yu Huangqing and his entourage. It was also such a desperate situation at that time, but she was able to survive and be reborn. She must not die easily.

Bai Zhiyuan felt cold and tired. She suddenly thought of Xie Yunsong. She wondered how he was doing now. Was he still looking for her? He must be very anxious without any news from her. She hadn't seen him for more than a month. She really missed him.

Bai Zhiyuan's mind was racing, and he didn't dare to stop for a moment. He didn't know how long he had been walking, nor where he was now, but he finally couldn't hear the sound of the pursuers behind him.

Bai Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to stop to rest when the fire behind him shone again.

Bai Zhiyuan did not dare to stop, thinking to himself: "These people of King Yan are really haunting."

She could only quicken her pace, try not to make any noise, and hide first.

Bai Zhiyuan on this side had just escaped, while Xie Yunsong on the other side had already brought his men to the vicinity of Puhua Temple, searching for Bai Zhiyuan all the way.

The whole afternoon passed with no results.

Just when he was filled with disappointment, a raging fire suddenly broke out in the distance, within his sight.

The fire started suddenly. Although the weather was dry, it caught fire out of nowhere and just as it was getting dark.

Xie Yunsong's heart moved, and for some reason his heart was beating violently. He could feel that this might be related to Ayuan's whereabouts.

He immediately gathered his men and rushed towards the fire.

The night was as dark as ink. On the steep and dangerous mountain road, a team of brightly lit people and horses were running in the mountains.

Xie Yunsong was dressed in black and had a stern face. He said nothing, almost blending into the night, and rushed to the place where the fire was.

This is an abandoned but quite hidden yard. Although the fire has been put out, the houses are all made of wood and are now completely unrecognizable and their original appearance cannot be seen.

At this time, although most of the people had gone out to chase Bai Zhiyuan, a few people were still left behind to clean up the aftermath.

Xie Yunsong waved his hand, Tianlin jumped off the horse, and the people in the yard became panicked when they saw the leader.

Tianlin stepped forward, took out the dagger from his body and put it to the man's throat, and asked sternly: "Where is the Princess Rong'an?"

The man was trembling and didn't speak at first. Tianlin lost his patience and used a little more force with the dagger. Blood immediately flowed down the dagger. The man was so scared that his face turned pale and he begged for mercy: "Please spare my life, General Yunhui, spare my life!"

Tianlin: "Since you know General Yunhui, you should know that he is here to look for Princess Rong'an. Let me ask you, where is the Princess now?"

As Tianlin spoke, he applied more force to his hands. The man's legs trembled with fear. He said, "Please spare my life, sir. The county lady set a fire tonight and has already escaped. The large number of people who were originally guarding the courtyard have already gone after her."

Xie Yunsong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but soon worry took over his heart. Without saying a word, he turned his horse around and immediately disappeared into the night.

Tianlin let go of the dagger and raised his hand, saying, "You two control the remaining people here, and the rest of the people will follow me to rescue the county lady!"

The night was as cold as water, and Xie Yunsong was extremely anxious. He was so close to Ayuan now, and after more than a month, he finally got news of her.

At this moment, although Bai Zhiyuan had hidden himself, he was surrounded by King Yan's men and could not move.

Bai Zhiyuan hid in a mountain valley, but the King of Yan's men were not to be trifled with. The leader was none other than the King of Yan's trusted confidant, Bai Yu.

He stopped not far from Bai Zhiyuan, looked carefully at the messy footsteps on the ground and said, "Search for me!"

A large number of people holding torches began to search the place.

Bai Zhiyuan was worried. If she continued like this, she would be found sooner or later. But now she had no other choice but to fight hard.

Bai Zhiyuan touched the sword she had stolen before escaping. Although her power had not yet fully recovered, she had no choice but to fight head-on to have a chance of survival.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhiyuan slowly drew out her sword, waiting for Bai Yu's men to find her so that she could hit her with one strike.

The night was dark and men on horseback were galloping towards him. He vaguely saw some torch lights ahead.

Xie Yunsong ran up, jumped up, touched the horse's back with his toes, and flew forward suddenly.

The people behind him raised their whips even faster and hurried to catch up.

Bai Zhiyuan was hiding behind a mountain valley when she heard the sound of weapons hitting each other. She was startled and slowly looked outside. It was too dark to see clearly. It seemed that there were reinforcements, but she couldn't tell whether they were enemies or friends, so she had to continue hiding.

After a long time, Bai Zhiyuan heard Bai Yu's panicked voice: "Retreat!" The outside began to gradually become quiet.

Tianlin was about to lead people to chase them, but Xie Yunsong said, "Forget it. If we catch up with them, they will be dead warriors. They are useless to us. The most important thing now is to find Ayuan."

Bai Zhiyuan's heart moved. She was very familiar with this voice. Then she heard: "Ayuan, where are you? Ayuan——"

Bai Zhiyuan felt relieved. It was Xie Yunsong! She stood up, took two steps outside, and shouted, "I'm here!"

Xie Yunsong heard the voice and turned around. In the darkness, it was hard to see the anxiety on his face. He ran towards Bai Zhiyuan and hugged her tightly. If you feel it carefully, you can see that his body is trembling slightly, as if he is afraid of losing and regaining.

Bai Zhiyuan's body had not fully recovered, and after a night of running away, his heart was always tense. At this moment, he completely relaxed in Xie Yunsong's arms, and suddenly felt dizzy and exhausted, and fainted in Xie Yunsong's arms.
