The moonlight outside the window was obscured by dark clouds. Su Yao gripped her scorching-hot phone, her knuckles turning white. The chilling voice from the call seemed to linger in her ears, carrying a bone-piercing frost. Sensing her distress, Lin Yu reached out and gently rested his hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry, we're here for you."
Qin Mo’s gaze was sharp as a torch, fixed intently on the jade plate sitting on the table. "The fact that they reached out to us shows that they are just as wary of the jade plate in our possession," he said in a deep voice. "This might be an opportunity to follow the trail and uncover the location of the other jade plates."

Su Yao pulled up her call logs, attempting to use modern technology to track the origin of the number, but only a string of garbled code appeared on the screen. "That’s strange," she frowned. "It’s as if the number has been scrambled by some kind of special energy."
