Chapter 539 (2/2)

Because Ye Lang did not attack again!

He was borrowing Sir Tie Jing’s powerful douqi to increase his momentum, shooting across the sky, away like a shooting star. Even the dragon riders could not catch up.

The audience stared in stunned silence. They could not believe how weak he’d acted when he was in disguise, they’d completely fallen for every trap he set up! How easily he’s escaped when there were so many people after him!

The courage, the cunning, the intelligence- he was an admirable alchemist.

Ye Lang’s voice rang across the night sky.

“Thank you Sir Tie Jing for sending me off. See you again, everyone-- wait, I hope we never meet!”

“Your Majesty, what now?” asked someone.

Everyone stared at the alchemy formations glowing in the sky like starlight as Ye Lang escaped further. It was unbelievable, they had not snapped back to reality yet.

It was until Ye Lang’s alchemy formations disappeared from sight when they slowly came back to reality.

What just happened? Everyone was initially shocked, thinking Zhao Yarou was absolutely insane to make so many preparations. Even the ultimate master would be captured.

But Ye Lang escaped. Again. This was even more shocking than the last time.

From the part where his identity was found out, to the way he escaped, to his alchemy formations…

To be able to create alchemy formations and then using them as stepping stones, moving freely mid-air… As long as he was out of the anti-magic zone, he could practically go wherever he wanted to.

The way he was able to travel mid-air was as if he had a pair of wings.

Anyone who wanted to catch him would have a hard time!

Most of the people there admired him for being able to do that. No matter what timeline it was, humans always dreamed of flying.

Although he was technically leaping in the air, he was still travelling mid-air. It was a type of flight.

“What should we do? What can we do, close the city gates? He can just fly over them. We won’t be able to catch up! Unless he comes into the trap himself… Wait.” Zhao Yarou had already given up but she quickly remembered something. She turned to look at Li Yue.

“?!” Li Yue was puzzled. Did Zhao Yarou imply that Ye Lang would come back for her? How was that possible?

“Li Yue, he’ll come back for you. Stay at home for a few days, lure him here! He’ll be suspicious of the palace but he’ll likely go to your house!” said Zhao Yarou.

At the same time, Zhao Yarou suspected Ye Lang would still come if she was in the palace but he would be a lot more prepared. It might be even more difficult to catch him.

If she let Li Yue move about freely, Ye Lang might not anticipate her ambushes. It would be better than a fight at the palace. Maybe achieve the same results with fewer people.

With his personality, he was likely to fall into her trap without knowing himself.

However, it all depended on whether he was coming back!
