Jiang Li and Ye Mingyu followed the team of government officers as they left.
In the tavern, the common people who had left earlier began to gather again. They watched the departing figures in silence but exchanged knowing looks. If a Historian who records history were to see this, he would be greatly alarmed by the present reality of "the road being defined by its travelers."
Perhaps it was the fear of Jiang Li's words, not wanting to invite unnecessary trouble upon themselves, the leading soldiers didn't make them walk ahead under escort. Instead, they stood by Jiang Li and Ye Mingyu. Ye Mingyu appeared calm, and Jiang Li wore a slight smile, making the soldiers seem more like the Ye Family's guards, protecting their safety at their sides.
