Chapter 57: A Broken Key

In the dark forest, the sound of many footsteps could be heard. It seemed like a lot of people were coming. Gu Fan and Su Hui were tense, prepared to fight their way out if needed.

Gradually, the sounds of footsteps lessened, becoming faint as if the crowd was moving away from them. This surprised Gu Fan and Su Hui. Shortly after, they saw Lin Xi, Lu Yi, and Jie running towards them.

"It's nothing, we'll talk about it when we get back." Gu Fan glanced at the key in his hand that looked as valuable as scrap metal. They had just risked their lives for such a worthless trinket.

Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh, "What the hell is this thing?"
