章 538: Chapter 540: Captured Again, Returning to Beiyu City

Li Yi did possess inner strength, so he didn't fall immediately after being poisoned. He could see Bai Ruozhu hop away triumphantly, snatch the talisman from his hand, and say, "I've got to go home quickly. My husband might get jealous if he sees both of us together."

Li Yi staggered a bit, surprised to find himself outwitted by a village woman. No, something was off! As he recalled being close to that woman, focusing on her eyes, it hit him - she was wearing a mask!

Unfortunately, by the time he wanted a closer look, Bai Ruozhu was already running away with the talisman, even disappearing halfway through her run.

He wondered about the woman's background. He was certain this town didn't have such characters. Was she the one secretly helping Jiang Yichun? Catching Yichun would be troublesome with someone like her around.

However, Li Yi decided that even if Yichun was difficult to catch, he could still tarnish his reputation.
