As for Tie Mad's escape, while it was somewhat unexpected, it was reasonable.
After all, the tide of the situation had turned, with Pei Xuanjing gaining the upper hand.
Thus, in order to preserve his life, leaving was the most appropriate choice.
Though such a flight may seem shameful, as long as one is alive, they can regain any lost face. Yet if they died, everything would be in vain.
Pei Xuanjing did not look down upon Tie Mad's actions, but rather, he believed that a man capable of admitting defeat and bouncing back could achieve great things in the future.
Yuwen Leopard responded quickly. Although he was shocked and furious about Tie Mad's shameless flight, at the moment, the best course of action was also to retreat promptly.
Moreover, he had already been thrown back by Pei Xuanjing once. Now, with Tie Mad fleeing first, his own escape held no psychological burden.
After all, it wasn't his first time and saving his own life was most important!
