518. Its location is a bit strange.

Upon hearing this, the group looked in the direction indicated.

The beams of several flashlights converged on a single spot and finally illuminated it clearly. The stone platform You Yuan had mentioned was bound with a thin, long rope that appeared to be made of nylon, a high-strength synthetic fiber that was both tough and lightweight—the same kind they were carrying.

However, the rope was not long, as if it had been deliberately cut.

Lin Wu stepped forward for a closer look and said, "The rope looks like it was placed here recently. Someone has been in here before."

"? Then wouldn't that be the Ninth Master?!" Bo Wu's spirits lifted.

Zheng Yuan was puzzled, "If it was Mr. Bo, why is there only such a short piece of rope left now? Did he cut it? Why cut it? Does he not plan to leave the way he came when he is ready to go?"

Bo Wu was stumped by the question and shook his head, indicating he was unsure.
