Ji Ruyan pouted, thinking to herself that she was right to be suspicious since he had never been here before—how could he be so familiar with the place?
It turned out he'd asked her grandfather for information.
"Let's go, I hope I can find some good treasures tonight," she said.
As soon as Ji Ruyan finished speaking, she intended to move forward but unexpectedly felt something fiercely tug at her foot, causing her to stagger and almost faceplant!
Luo Shunchen, with quick reflexes, caught her and asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"I think someone just pulled on my foot!"
Ji Ruyan frowned, taking the Luminous Pearl from his hand to light up the area around her feet but saw nothing but a few weeds and some mud.
Luo Shunchen helped to look around but didn't notice anything unusual either, so he suggested, "We should still be careful. Here, let me help you."
"Okay."
With his support, Ji Ruyan tried to walk again only to feel her foot being yanked with great force once more!
