Chapter 707: Chapter 303: Seeing Ji Feiyang Again_2
The most urgent task at hand is to locate the Endless Prison.
To rescue Wan Cangxin and… that ’Old Ghost’ who has been imprisoned for twenty years.
Once these two are saved, all the truths can be uncovered for the world to see.
Then, it will be time to make a move and capture the culprits.
Thinking this, he snapped his fingers and relit the lamp in the secret chamber.
In the dim light, Wan Yilan gradually adjusted her eyes and hurriedly took out the object she had just found, handing it to Su Mo.
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, the Endless Prison…”
It was a ledger, and upon opening it, Su Mo discovered that it contained various traps and mechanisms inside the so-called Endless Prison.
However, after taking a few glances, Su Mo felt as if he had seen this somewhere before?
The whole design’s front half gave him an extremely familiar feeling, but the latter half was completely foreign.
Moreover, the ingenuity of the two sections was incomparable.
It made Su Mo feel as though it was an awkward extension of an original idea.
Yet even after flipping to the end, he found no entrance to the Endless Prison.
The designs only showed the overall layout of the Endless Prison, without any indication of its location.
Wan Yilan’s face immediately turned to disappointment:
“What shall we do with this…
“When I was a child, I must have seen this…
“But there is no indication here of where the Endless Prison is located.”
“It’s alright.”
Su Mo pondered for a moment and put the booklet away: “Miss Wan, you should hurry back now.
“Your mother may have already arrived at your place looking for you. If you don’t return shortly, she may become suspicious.
“Uh… you’ll need to adjust your emotions.
“The emotions of failing to get revenge, and not knowing whether Wan Cangxin is still alive…”
“Mm-hmm.”
Wan Yilan immediately nodded in understanding. The next moment, her expression turned ashen.
Su Mo found her acting quite remarkable.
Was it that women are naturally gifted actors, or was Wan Yilan extraordinarily talented?
Just this short segment of subtle facial expressions would likely bag her an award with ease.
Without further ado, he led Wan Yulan out of the secret chamber.
Calm had returned outside; Lady Wan and Wan Yutang had already departed. Su Mo and company headed for the window they used when entering, but as they passed Lady Wan’s room, Su Mo’s footsteps suddenly halted.
Wan Yilan paused and looked up at Su Mo, about to ask, but Su Mo gestured for silence.
Then he pointed at Lady Wan’s room.
Lady Wan must have left in a hurry, as the door was not completely shut.
A gap was left open.
Wan Yilan’s eyes lit up with curiosity, eager to take a peek.
But Su Mo pulled her back behind him as he leaned in to look through the gap.
He didn’t peer through the gap out of sheer curiosity about Lady Wan’s lover.
He was recalling what Lady Wan had said earlier.
To fool around for a few more days, then kill the person…
Now, seeing who this person was might give him a chance to save a life later.
Yet as he looked, he paused in shock.
Lady Wan’s room was simply furnished, the sheer curtains diffused the light, and the fragrance lingered, with a large bed at its center, atop which the sheets were in disarray.
And on that messy bed lay a person.
Naked, motionless.
Eyes wide with rage, yet helpless.
Although it had been a long time, Su Mo instantly recognized the person’s identity…
“Young Leader Ji…”
Subconsciously, Su Mo smacked his forehead.
When previously mentioning Ji Feiyang’s favor with Lady Wan, Su Mo did have some bizarre suspicions.
But it was a mere jest and not taken to heart…
Who could have imagined that there was such a relationship between these two?
However… Ji Feiyang’s current state seemed off.
While contemplating, he felt a head pushing towards the gap. Looking down, he saw Wan Yilan trying to peer in as well.
He pushed her head away immediately:
“Mind your manners.”
“… Shouldn’t an indecent sight be looked at even more?”
Wan Yilan’s comment revealed a bit of her true character.
Su Mo ignored that and with a wave of his hand, he was already inside the room. With a casual flick, a thin blanket covered Ji Feiyang, sparely providing modesty.
Following that, Su Mo flicked his finger, landing on Ji Feiyang’s chest, releasing his acupoint.
Ji Feiyang inhaled sharply, about to sit up, but then saw Wan Yilan following Su Mo, curiously observing him.
He quickly lay back down, frantically tucking the blanket around himself.
Then he looked towards Su Mo, and was instantly stunned:
“Chief of the Escort Su?”
Having said that, he blushed, seemingly embarrassed.
But Su Mo was curious:
“Young Leader Ji, what is… going on here?”
Wan Yilan looked between Su Mo and Ji Feiyang in surprise:
“You two know each other?”
“Miss Wan…?”
After a closer look, Ji Feiyang recognized the person with Su Mo as Wan Yilan.
He was momentarily confused.
After a moment of silence, he spoke with a pleading tone:
“Su, the Chief of the Escort, this is not a good place to talk… if you could first let me get dressed, we should leave here sooner rather than later. If we wait any longer, that witch might return.”
