Chapter 690: Heaven Never Seals Off All Exits
Gu Fan was the first to rush to the gate, using his hand to pry it open, astonishingly, it could be forced open. He saw a passageway inside, so he was both surprised and delighted. He swiftly ushered everyone in.
Lu Yi was the first to enter, followed by Jie, and then Xu Haowen, after which Hai, the subordinates of the two bosses, and three pirates entered.
The slower ones could only be grabbed by the mermaids by their ankles and dragged away; they desperately stretched out their hands, wanting to call for help, but...
Lin Xi was anxious on one side, she pushed Gu Fan, implying that he shouldn’t be foolishly putting himself at risk. Gu Fan ignored her and instead pushed Lin Xi towards the passage, insisting she goes first.
Lin Xi couldn’t help it, she knew she couldn’t defy Gu Fan and so she went ahead; but the passage was crowded with people, which slowed progress and Gu Fan was stuck outside.
The situation was extremely urgent, but Gu Fan took a deep breath and prepared himself for the mermaid’s imminent attack.
"Oh fate, you won’t let me die here right?" Gu Fan stared fiercely at the oncoming mermaid, his body tautly ready.
The mermaid attacked, pinning Gu Fan against the stone wall. Just as its sharp teeth were about to bite down, a stone fell from a statue, knocking the mermaid on its head and saving Gu Fan’s life.
Barely catching his breath, before Gu Fan could rejoice, two more mermaids rushed towards him, he didn’t think he would have such good luck again.
