Chapter 569 Leave The Stone Chamber
Sylvia''s POV:
When I heard what La said, I was shocked. I didn''t expect Ashley would betray me. After all, it
was Hobson and his children who had caused her so much suffering.
Why would Ashley still want to please that bastard?
It seemed that she still wanted to go back to that mysterious castle despite all the trouble it had
brought her.
"Don''t be sad, Sylvia. Ashley''s just a vampire, and she was tortured by werewolves. I doubted she''d
have ever be our true friend." Noticing my change in mood, Flora put her arm around my
shoulder andforted me.
"I''m not sad. I just can''t figure it out. Other than Ashley''s mother, every single person in that castle
wants her dead. Why is she still trying to go back and even please Hobson?" I sighed and felt that
people''s hearts were a fickle thing, difficult to understand.
"To each their own. If that''s the path she wants to take, then who are we to stop her?" Flora smiled,
as if she didn''t care about the matter so much anymore.
Although Flora was usually impulsive, she had always been good at emotional management.
I nodded and decided to let it go, too. "You''re right. Since Ashley has chosen to run, she''ll probably
go back to the castle. That means I''ve fulfilled my end of the bargain with her mother. I doubt we''ll
cross paths again. Let''s think about how to get out of here now."
Flora looked around and muttered, "This isn''t the same room we were in earlier."
"Go there. Ashley escaped in that direction." La pointed at one of the paths.
I nced at her wound and said worriedly, "Don''t you need to bandage your wound? It''s still
bleeding."
"No need. Let''s get out of here first. This stone chamber is probably filled with traps. The longer we
stay here, the more danger we''ll be in," La said firmly.
I had no choice but to agree. So we walked in the direction she had pointed out and eventually
came to the ce where we first came in.
I figured we should thank La. We wouldn''t have been able to get out of here without her.

Now that Flora had epted La, she was very enthusiastic about her. This time, having
witnessed La''s strong sense of direction in action, Flora admired La even more. She became
an avid fan in the blink of an eye.
"You''re amazing, La! When we get out of here, I''ll buy you an entire roast chicken!"
"Okay. I look forward to it."
"Ha-ha..."
Watching them interact, I felt grateful. We had made a new friend.
After walking a while, we made it to the hole in the wall where the pendant was ced. We tried to
pull it out, but we couldn''t.
"Let me try." Flora rubbed her hands and nted her feet firmly on the ground. She pulled the tail of
the pendant with both hands and tried to yank it out with all her strength. "Ow! Come out!"
But the pendant refused to budge. Flora''s face turned red from the effort. Unwilling to give up, she
kept trying to pull it. "Move!!! Come out, little pendant!"
La couldn''t bear to watch her any longer. She stepped forward and patted Flora on the back. "Let
me have a try."
"Go ahead." Flora sighed in resignation. Then, her legs buckled slightly. "I think I used too much
energy just now and my braincks oxygen."
I hurried to support her. "Rest first, Flora."
La took Flora''s ce and stood in front of the hole in the wall. She looked at the pendant closely
first, then reached out to rotate it.
A bang exploded in our ears.
Flora and I were stunned. It turned out that we didn''t need to pull the pendant out... We just needed
to rotate it.
After the loud bang, the rotated pendant shone red again, and ck mist began to rise around us.
The stone chamber gradually disappeared from our sight.
The three of us held our breaths and slowly walked out of the ck mist.
When we made it out of the mist, we happened to run into Rufus, who was looking for us with his
men.
