After all, the Zhao Family was relying on the portraits of the Enchantresses Xu Lei had drawn to conduct their search.
If the Enchantresses discovered them, they might kill them.
Although Xu Lei had never considered the Zhao Family to be particularly virtuous...
...they had, after all, diligently done quite a lot for him over the years.
Xu Lei couldn't help but feel a pang of conscience.
So, he had switched to using other personnel.

...was that something had happened at one of the outposts he had arranged.
Xu Lei deduced that the Enchantresses had likely traced them back.

Xu Lei descended the mountain and put on his Human Skin Mask.
Then he began to run.
