The proposal was deemed feasible by everyone present.
Li Yize, after drinking some water and recovering slightly, felt his strength return somewhat.
With three people smashing the wall together, they should be able to create an opening large enough for them to pass through quickly.
"Let's find a spot that's easier to smash, not near the windows. The bars there are very sturdy. Let's find a blank wall," Li Yize suggested.
Li Yize and the others had also tried to remove those bars, but they were too strong to budge.
"I'll go get the tools," Ah Ming said, rising and heading towards the storage room.
Though he wanted to abandon them and escape with Yi Fei, he knew that he couldn't get out of here alone.
After retrieving the tools, the three men began to smash the wall, while the three women prepared other things.
Two of the three women were injured, so the task of fetching items fell to Lin Yan.
Yue Yue seemed to enjoy directing Lin Yan, constantly giving her tasks.
Lin Yan didn't argue with her and diligently prepared the items.
Yi Fei looked apologetically at Lin Yan and quietly thanked her.
Although she wanted to prepare these things herself, she felt dizzy whenever she moved.
Her and Ah Ming's belongings were almost ready, with only some food needing to be packed into their backpacks. After all, they were heading into a deep mountain forest, and they had to be prepared with food and water.
Lin Yan also meticulously packed her own belongings. Even if they weren't used, it was better than not tidying up and making them suspicious.
By the time she had packed the backpacks for all six of them, the others had already managed to create a small hole in the wall.
Although the hole wasn't large, every beginning was difficult. With this hole, they could soon smash out an opening suitable for them to pass through.
The hole in the wall was like a ray of hope, motivating them to continue their efforts.
Lin Yan didn't stop them. By now, Luo Fan should have almost finished erasing his tracks.
When Luo Sheng returned, none of these people would escape.
Just as the hole was completely smashed open, Lin Yan saw Luo Sheng returning, accompanied by two Yin messengers.
Seeing the hole they could now use to exit, the people in the villa grabbed the backpacks Lin Yan had prepared and, supporting each other, squeezed through the opening.
Lin Yan was the last one out. By now, they no longer cared about Lin Yan's status as the school beauty; escaping was the most important thing.
Lin Yan exited the villa right behind them. Li Yize supported Yue Yue, Ah Rui was injured himself, and Yi Fei was carried by Ah Ming after being helped out, then placed on his back.
Lin Yan gave a slight nod to Luo Sheng. Luo Sheng materialized in mid-air and lunged towards the fleeing group.
Dressed in a school uniform, stained with blood, Luo Sheng's nails were black and sharp, and the black hair behind him seemed to claw towards them.
"A ghost!"
The group hadn't truly believed the talk of ghosts before. Now, seeing Luo Sheng floating in the air and lunging at them, appearing as if he intended to claim their lives, they panicked and scattered in all directions, completely disregarding Lin Yan. Huang Yue even sneered as she brushed past her.
A force struck Lin Yan, nearly sending her to the ground. She quickly regained her balance and realized that Huang Yue had attacked her.
Whether Huang Yue intended for her to be a shield against the vengeful spirit or for some other reason, Lin Yan now understood how the original host had died.
She had previously thought Huang Yue's constant targeting was due to Li Yize's attention. Now that Li Yize had given up on her, and Huang Yue still acted this way, it was clear she truly hated the original host to the point of wanting her dead.
With someone like that by her side, in such a dangerous environment, the original host's death was inevitable.
Even if Luo Fan hadn't harbored murderous intentions towards the original host, others couldn't prevent them from indirectly causing her death.
Taking advantage of Huang Yue's attack, Lin Yan lagged behind the group, completely separating herself from the "main force."
The others were now running for their lives, none noticing Lin Yan had fallen behind.
Seeing Lin Yan almost fall after being pushed, Luo Sheng recalled scenes of her being bullied by this group years ago.
Growing even angrier, Luo Sheng increased his speed and lunged towards them.
