Because Shadow was unaware of the escape mechanism in the mansion's hall, it was already too late for him to stop it when Ye Chenfeng swiftly activated it. Ye Chenfeng and the others, along with the sofas, descended to the underground, and as soon as the sofas reached the bottom, the opening in the ground immediately closed up, restoring quiet to the entire hall.
The usually expressionless face of Shadow finally showed a change; until now, no one had managed to escape from his clutches. He clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged, indicating just how furious he was inside. He felt like he had been played by Ye Chenfeng.
Shadow remembered Ye Chenfeng had moved a cup of a special color on the coffee table to activate the mechanism. He hurriedly tried to move the same cup, but no matter what he did, he couldn't activate the mechanism. Eventually, he even broke the cup that triggered the mechanism right off the coffee table.
