Their mission was to capture the pair.
If they succeeded, they would receive a handsome reward.
Fang Yue and Li Mengyao paid them no mind and continued to flee.
"After them! Capture them alive!" the red-robed rebel leader commanded loudly.
The soldiers immediately gave chase, pursuing Fang Yue and Li Mengyao.
Although Fang Yue and Li Mengyao were fast, they couldn't shake their pursuers.
The soldiers' cultivation levels weren't high, but the horses they rode were a special breed—fast and with incredible stamina. Fang Yue and Li Mengyao simply couldn't lose them.
"Damn it!" Fang Yue and Li Mengyao exchanged a glance, both seeing the deep worry in each other's eyes.
They hadn't expected their pursuers to be so resourceful. Now, they were in trouble.
'If this drags on, we'll be caught sooner or later!'
"Let's head into the mountains!"
Li Mengyao suddenly said.
Hearing this, Fang Yue nodded, then led Li Mengyao into the mountain forest beside them.
