Chapter 1501: No One (1)
Of course, while walking, classmate Yang Ruxin did not forget to collect all the Luminous Pearls on the wall into her space. These were all treasures, too precious to be left here. Just one of these pearls could support a family of three for many years.
As soon as she exited the secret passageway, she heard footsteps coming from outside.
Ji Bin, upon seeing Yang Ruxin emerge, hurried over to press the mechanism again. Just as the study had returned to its original state, the sound of someone pushing the door could be heard.
Without a word, Yang Ruxin knocked Ji Bin unconscious and, with him in tow, darted into her space.
At the same time, the door was forcefully kicked open.
The newcomers were several Yuan soldiers, led by a guard who had been by Alatan’s side earlier.
The group made a round inside the entire room, finding not a single person. Then they began muttering something amongst themselves.
While Yang Ruxin could not understand their language, she could roughly guess their thoughts, presumably that someone had seen them entering this area and followed. But having heard the noise earlier, how could there be no one?
Since they had followed her in, they might as well not leave. With that thought, she flashed out of her space.
The Yuan soldiers, puzzled, suddenly found a person appearing right before them, but before they could react, they detected a faint scent and then simply fell down staring, one by one.
