Xiao Yun looked at the soldiers on the shore as they shouted angrily and resentfully at them. Wong Ji stood at the forefront, a hint of evil smile on his face, his eyes filled with a cold light. He looked at Xiao Yun, his lips curling slightly as he coldly said, "You can't escape...Xiao Yun! The Shadow Guard will find you...you can never escape!"
Wong Ji's voice echoed in the night sky, carrying an ominous omen. Then he burst into laughter, a cold and crazy laughter, the moonlight reflecting on his face, making his expression even more terrifying.
Xiao Yun felt a chill rising from the depths of her heart, her heartbeat quickening, a flash of fear and anger in her eyes. But she knew that now was not the time to be overcome by fear; she had to stay calm and find a way to escape.
At this moment, Li Chunhua picked up the oar and softly said to Xiao Yun, " Xiao Yun, don't look, start rowing!"
Xiao Yun regained her senses, nodded, and quickly picked up another oar, starting to paddle with all her strength. Her palms were sweating from nervousness, but she didn't stop, filled with determination. She knew that only by quickly getting away from the shore could they truly escape the danger.
"Hurry, paddle faster!" Zhang Dashan also urged continuously, vigorously moving the oars with his arms, trying to accelerate the boat away from the shore.
The fishing boat slowly moved forward in the night, breaking the calm water surface. Xiao Yun couldn't help but glance at the shore, seeing Wong Ji's smile becoming increasingly blurry, but the voice still echoed in her ears. She gritted her teeth, trying to focus her attention on rowing the boat.
As the fishing boat gradually moved away from the shore, the soldiers' shouts and Wong Ji's laughter became increasingly faint. Xiao Yun's heart relaxed slightly, but she knew that this was just a brief respite. They still faced great danger.
"Where are we going now?" Xiao Yun asked in a low voice, with a hint of anxiety and unease in her eyes.
Zhang Dashan's gaze was firm as he said in a deep voice, "We'll first go to a safe place and wait for the situation to calm down... then we'll figure out a way to contact the Red Flame Army! They will know what to do..."
Xiao Yun nodded, filled with hope and determination. She knew that this mission was a matter of life and death for everyone, and she was determined to seize this opportunity. She tightened her grip on the oar and continued to row the fishing boat forward in the darkness.
Lin Yu stood on a hill near Lianba village, perched in a tall tree, overlooking the situation in the village. His gaze was fixed on Wong Ji and a group of soldiers at the small port, as well as Xiao Yun who was heading away. His heart was filled with tension as the secret he had been desperately hiding for ten years had been discovered by Wong Ji.
Lin Yu's heart is filled with frustration and worry. He knows that it's difficult to confront so many soldiers alone. For the past ten years, he has carefully concealed his true identity within the Shadow Guard, but now it seems that everything is about to collapse.
As Xiao Yun's figure gradually fades away, a hint of unease and guilt crosses Lin Yu's heart. He knows it's time to leave the Shadow Guard, but this decision is not an easy one. Leaving the Shadow Guard means betrayal, and it means facing countless pursuits and dangers. He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
Lin Yu's gaze turned to Wong Ji again, seeing his evil smile and cruel eyes, filled with anger and helplessness. Wong Ji's betrayal took Lin Yu by surprise, but what worried him more was that Wong Ji had already discovered Xiao Yun's identity, which would bring her endless trouble and danger.
"Ten years..." Lin Yu muttered softly, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes. He didn't know why he was doing this, but some inner force compelled him, making it impossible for him to ignore.
He recalled the past, remembering everything he had done in the Shadow Guard, filled with regret and unease. Over the years, he had witnessed too much killing and betrayal, and had also destroyed many innocent lives with his own hands. He knew that he was tired of this life and wanted to find a new path.
Lin Yu was filled with determination, knowing that he could not let Xiao Yun fall into the hands of the Shadow Guard no matter what. She was the last hope of the Showa Dynasty and his only chance for redemption. He had to protect her, no matter the cost.
"It's time to make a change." Lin Yu silently told himself, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes. He knew that leaving Shadow Guard would be a huge risk, but he couldn't turn back now.
He leaped lightly from the tree, his figure flashing like a ghost in the dark night. He decided to take advantage of the cover of night to quickly leave Lianba village.
Lin Yu swiftly ran through the forest, his footsteps light and agile, like a leopard moving through the night. He knew time was of the essence; he had to return to the Shadow Guard's camp stationed in Xiyue City as quickly as possible. His heart was filled with tension and determination; he needed to act before Wong Ji brought back the news.
The night wind howled through the trees, bringing a hint of coolness. Lin Yu's mind raced as he contemplated his next steps. He needed to gather some essential items and supplies to ensure he had enough resources to help Xiao Yun escape. Additionally, he had to find a way to erase their traces and slow down the Shadow Guard's pursuit of Xiao Yun as much as possible.
He moved through the shadows of the trees, his body like a nimble shadow, silently navigating the forest. Each step was filled with precise calculation and silent strength. Lin Yu had only one goal in his heart: to protect Xiao Yun, no matter the cost.
In the distance, the outline of Xiyue City gradually became clear. Lin Yu knew he was getting closer to his target. He slowed his pace, using the cover of darkness to quietly infiltrate the Shadow Guard's camp. The camp was brightly lit, but most of the guards were resting, with only a few sentinels patrolling.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and decided to first sneak into his own tent to gather some necessary supplies. He avoided several patrolling soldiers and quickly approached his tent. Gently lifting the tent's curtain, he swiftly entered and began organizing the needed items.
He picked up some dry rations, a water flask, medicine, a few simple changes of clothes, as well as a few maps and some silver coins, all essential for the upcoming mission. His movements were quick and methodical, filled with determination.
