After a long moment, she took a deep breath and continued, "I'm very sorry. Generally speaking, I don't disclose the contents of my client's will to irrelevant people, so I wasn't able to tell you the truth before... I'm really sorry."

Yan Fei lowered her head slightly, a guilty look on her face.

"I came to the Layered Abyss to retrieve the Taiwei Yipan mentioned in the will."

Yan Fei raised her head, her eyes became firm, "Many years ago, my client gave this magic weapon to an aspiring person, hoping that this treasure could play a role where it was needed. And according to witnesses, the person who received the magic weapon took it to the Layered Rock Abyss, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then. Historically, there have been many wars in the Layered Rock Abyss area. Even if that person unfortunately died in the war, I hope to do my best to retrieve the magic weapon and fulfill the client's wish. As for what Ye Lan said before, it was all true. The Layered Rock Abyss is fraught with danger... You should have realized it as well. Now that we are in this kind of trouble, I think we should work together to find a way out." Yan Fei finished speaking, his eyes full of sincerity.

After hearing Yan Fei's words, the three of them naturally had no objections.

The current situation does not allow them to have any other choice. If they still hesitate, they will undoubtedly seek their own death.

"Lin Feng, what should we do next? It seems impossible to get out of here now."

Paimon asked anxiously, her body spinning in the air, showing her inner panic.

Listening to Paimeng's words, Lin Feng shook his head slowly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said with a confident smile: "No, no, you can't but I can. However, for the sake of our friendship, I will stay here with you."

After hearing what Lin Feng said, Paimeng's face was immediately filled with black lines. She put her hands on her hips angrily and said unhappily, "Good fellow, if you had said you go up first and we wait here for a while, maybe I wouldn't be so speechless."

"Lin Feng, can't you go out first?" Paimeng asked persistently, his eyes full of expectation.

After listening to Paimeng's words, Lin Feng shook his head again, his expression becoming serious: "No, no, and the problem is that we can't get out. I can feel that something seems to have awakened here. If we want to escape, I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems." Lin Feng frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

After hearing what Lin Feng said, Paimeng shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: This guy is too lazy to start looking for excuses. Although this place does look very weird, we just fell down accidentally. How could there be anything weird here?

Not long after, Ye Lan reappeared in everyone's sight. Her expression wasn't particularly good, her brow furrowed. It looked as if this investigation had yielded no useful clues, or rather, no leads that could lead them out. "I found an entrance up ahead, but I'm not sure what's inside. Given this situation, I think it's worth asking for everyone's opinion. Should we go in and take a look?" Ye Lan asked, her gaze sweeping across everyone's faces, a questioning and cautious expression in her eyes.

After listening to Ye Lan's words, Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then said: "I agree that staying here is not a long-term solution. The cave entrance above is obviously not the right way, so we need to go and explore it, even if it is blocked." Lin Feng crossed his arms and spoke in a firm tone.

After hearing Lin Feng's words, Paimeng nodded vigorously: "I agree too." There was a hint of determination in her eyes.

After hearing what Lin Feng and Paimeng had said, Kong and Yanfei naturally had no problem and nodded in agreement. The minority obeyed the majority, and three people had already agreed. Besides, they all wanted to investigate, just in case there were any clues. While the possibility was small, it was not completely impossible.

"Then let's go and take a look without further delay." After hearing Paimeng's words, the few of them did not hesitate and quickly rushed towards the entrance.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance. It was a massive stone door, more than two men tall, its surface covered in mysterious patterns and symbols. These patterns shimmered eerily in the dim light, as if telling an ancient story. Paimon was momentarily bewildered, wondering, "What... could be inside this?" He hoped it would be simple, perhaps not so complicated.

But just when a few people were about to go in, Ye Lan suddenly stopped. Her body tensed up instantly, and she looked around with a vigilant expression, and whispered, "There's a sound!" Although her voice was not loud, it was particularly clear in this silent environment, as if the sound of a needle falling could be infinitely amplified.

As Ye Lan's voice fell, a figure suddenly appeared behind the crowd, like a ghost. It moved with such speed that it created a slight rustling sound. Sora, startled by the sight, quickly leaped back, away from the person, his movements agile. Paimon was also frightened, his body trembling uncontrollably and a series of terrified cries emanating from his lips. However, once everyone got a clear view of the person, their fear instantly subsided.

"Ah! It's Xiao!" Paimon exclaimed in surprise, with a hint of joy of surviving a disaster in his voice.

After hearing Paimeng's words, the people present finally relaxed. The scene just now was indeed frightening, especially in such a gloomy and strange place, any sudden movement would make people nervous.

"Great Sage Conquering Demons? Why are you here?" Yan Fei looked at Xiao, a look of surprise on her face. In her opinion, if Xiao was here, it seemed like everything would be fine. After all, he was very powerful, and at least they wouldn't have to worry about their safety anymore. In Yan Fei's eyes, Xiao was dressed in a dark green robe, standing tall and straight, with a stern expression, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

When Ye Lan heard that the person coming was the Demon Subduing Great Sage, she felt very embarrassed and thought to herself: Good man, is this actually possible? But she was also relieved. It was much better to have one of our own come than to have the enemy suddenly appear.

After listening to Yan Fei's words, Xiao nodded. His actions were simple and decisive.

Then he said, "I just came down from upstairs. I heard some noise here and came to take a look."

After listening to Xiao's words, Paimeng thought about it and then asked him to join the group.

"Did you fall here accidentally? Do you want to come with us?"

Paimon looked at Xiao expectantly, his eyes sparkling.
