Chapter 879

It was much cooler outside the secret passage than inside. As soon as he went out, a cold wind blew toward him.

After Su Yu saw the situation outside, his face was happy. He turned back and said to the people who were still hesitating in the secret passage: "Come out! There is no one outside!"

Everyone felt like they had survived a disaster.

Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but their time could be considered wasted.

The secret passage couldn't be walked, and having a map was useless. Besides, having a map would also bring about a fatal disaster, so it was like carrying a time bomb for nothing.

At this time, Wang Man and Wang Li walked toward Su Yu at the same time, both with grateful smiles on their faces.

Wang Man said first: "Thank you, kid. If it weren't for you, we would probably have been in danger by now."

Before Su Yu could speak, Wang Li also looked grateful and patted Su Yu on the shoulder.

"Is it too dangerous for you to carry the map? Should we just tear it up?"

Su Yu heard Wang Li say this and thought about it carefully, but still couldn't bear to do it.

That was a map, a map of the ancient palace, and it was also an heirloom of the Wang family. The Wang family could tear it up as they said, but Su Yu hadn't looked at it much yet.

So Su Yu hesitated for a long time and still shook his head.

Wang Man and Wang Li saw this and stopped asking.

Su Yu formally said goodbye to them, then found a place where no one was around and took out the map in his pocket.

Su Yu lit the spirit stone and secretly looked at it by the light. He saw that the lines on it were drawn intricately, and at first glance, it made people feel dizzy in addition to being inexplicable.

Su Yu pointed at the black lines on the map with his finger, comparing them with the dozens of roads in the main hall from time to time.

And a few roads were marked with red crosses, but what caught Su Yu's attention most was that there was a crown on three of the roads.

... A crown.

Su Yu touched his chin, his gaze starting from the first road of the main hall until he saw the thirty-sixth road at the end.

He was struggling with whether to take the road marked with a crown.

"Just go, this is probably a clue too," Jifeng Xunlei said directly, watching Su Yu fall into a struggle.

"Oh..." Su Yu looked up and distinguished the one marked with a crown from the thirty-six roads. Although his steps were hesitant, he still walked in.

This road seemed to be a tunnel, darker and colder than the previous secret passage, and also much more spacious.

The first thing Su Yu did when he went in was to light the spirit stone. He first observed whether the walls on both sides had the reliefs carved on the secret passage.

Then he found that there were none.

This seemed to be an ordinary tunnel. Except for Su Yu, he couldn't feel the existence of a second person.

... Maybe there really was no one.

While walking inside, Su Yu felt colder and colder.

Toward the end, he even started to jog.

But fortunately, the tunnel wasn't as long as the secret passage. Walking to the end, Su Yu saw light.

He rushed out head-on.

Then he saw a large open space.

Su Yu was stunned in place because he discovered that besides him, there were many, many people in the large open space. A glance over showed green, red, black, and white ones.

Those people seemed to be gathered together talking, but Su Yu didn't know what they were saying, and after Su Yu arrived, they didn't react at all, continuing to chat about whatever they were chatting about.

Su Yu pursed his lips.

Now he had no idea what to do, nor did he know where to go.

It seemed that walking from the main hall to here was the end, but looking at the reactions of those people, there should be a long way to go later.

And the point he didn't understand most was.

Whether the ends of all the passages were connected or scattered. Was this large open space he currently saw the product of all the passages converging?

Su Yu didn't know, but he didn't stop his steps, choosing instead to circle around this large open space.

He found nothing.

The walls of the large open space were white, and the floor looked like tiles. Just walking around like this, Su Yu didn't find any secret doors that could be used for entry or exit.

... So, is this the end?

There were quite a few people with the same thoughts as Su Yu. Most of the people standing in the open space chattering were those who knew nothing. Su Yu's eyes swept over those strange faces.

He was looking for someone who could take him out.

Those faces of men, women, old, and young, those faces of confusion, ignorance, anxiety, and doubt, didn't seem to have any clues at a closer look, but Su Yu had sharp eyes.

He discovered—

In the right corner, there were three people standing together, two men and one woman. Their expressions, besides being calm, were just full of confidence.

Su Yu knew this expression very well. He made up his mind almost immediately and leaned toward those three people calmly.

Facts proved that the vigilance of smart people wouldn't be low. From the moment Su Yu approached them, the girl in the team frowned slightly.

Su Yu was about five people away from them. He pretended to be looking for teammates and stopped.
