Chapter 51: Mystery in the Woods Stepping into the woods east of the village, Lin Yu was immediately hit by a chilling aura. The forest seemed shrouded in an eerie haze. Sunlight struggled to pierce through the gaps in the branches, casting only mottled, feeble light that made the woods appear even more deep and inscrutable. He proceeded with utmost caution. The fallen leaves beneath his feet produced a faint rustling sound that stood out sharply in the silent forest. Keeping his guard up at all times, Lin Yu swept his sharp gaze across his surroundings. As he walked, he noticed something unusual: the surrounding trees seemed arranged far too neatly. They did not look like natural growth, but rather laid out according to some mysterious pattern.
