Zhao Dong continued to try to persuade Xu Yafei.
But Xu Yafei was completely unyielding. Her fearful eyes were full of panic, and she had clearly mistaken Zhao Dong for a bad guy.
At that moment, Li Long suddenly exclaimed, "This is bad! The patrol team is here! If we don't leave now, we're done for!"
Zhao Dong whirled around in alarm and saw a patrol team approaching outside the main hall.
Damn! Zhao Dong cursed inwardly.
Xu Yafei was within arm's reach, but he couldn't take her with him. The feeling filled Zhao Dong with utter despair.
"Brother Dong, Elder Ouyang won't harm her for now. As long as the green mountains last, there'll be firewood to burn!"
Finally, Li Long's words helped Zhao Dong make up his mind. He looked at Xu Yafei, his eyes brimming with tears. "Yafei, wait for me. Just wait for me... I will definitely rescue you!"
With that, he and Li Long quickly leaped over the hall's surrounding wall.
