Chapter 91: "The Counterattack in the Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Legend of Breaking the Gam
The night was like ink, so thick that it seemed like ink could drip down, weighing heavily on every inch of the land of the Fantasy World. The cold moon hung high in the sky, and its cold light fell on the desolate wilderness like frost and snow, outlining a patch of gloomy shadows. Lin Xiao walked alone in this eerily silent wilderness, and every step seemed so heavy and difficult.
The howling wind swept past, raising dust all over the sky, like a mad beast roaring wantonly. Lin Xiao tightened her tattered and patched cloak, but the cold wind was still like a cold blade, ruthlessly penetrating her clothes and stinging her skin. Her brows were furrowed like a small mountain, and her eyes revealed deep fatigue and confusion, as if she was a lonely soul lost in this endless darkness.
"This damn place, what kind of desperate situation is it going to push me into?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but mutter to herself, her voice full of helplessness and unwillingness. Her lips were chapped and her voice became hoarse from shouting for a long time.
Suddenly, a horrible wolf howl sounded in the distance. The sound was particularly shrill in the silent night, as if it was a call from the depths of hell. Lin Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, and she stopped in an instant, as if she was cast under a spell. Her eyes widened and she looked around vigilantly.
"Is it really so unlucky? In the dead of night, am I really going to run into a pack of wolves?" She bit her lip, and a trace of blood oozed from her cracked lips. Her hand unconsciously grasped the worn sword at her waist, and her palm was full of sweat.
At this moment, a group of dark shadows rushed out from the woods behind her like ghosts and surrounded her in the blink of an eye.
"Haha, little girl, let's see where you can run this time!" The leader was a burly man with a ferocious face. His face full of flesh looked even more terrifying in the moonlight. He held a huge machete in his hand, and the blade flashed a chilling cold light in the moonlight, as if eager to drink blood.
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. A hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and she said calmly, "You bunch of rabble, you dare to have ideas about me? You are simply overestimating your own abilities!"
The big man sneered, revealing a mouthful of jagged yellow teeth: "Hmph, don't be so stubborn, just hand over the treasure on you obediently, maybe I can show mercy and spare your life!"
Lin Xiao glared at them and shouted, "Dream on! Even if I die, I won't let you evil thieves succeed!"
After that, she flashed like lightning and took the lead in launching an attack. The sword in her hand drew a sharp cold light under the moonlight and went straight to the big man.
The big man dodged flexibly by turning sideways, then swung the machete in his hand and counterattacked with overwhelming force. Lin Xiao reacted quickly, rolled sideways, and cleverly avoided the fatal blow.
Seeing this, the other robbers also waved their weapons and swarmed over. For a moment, the flashes of swords and sabers crossed each other, and Lin Xiao gradually fell into trouble.
Her breathing became more and more rapid, and her chest rose and fell violently, like a bellows. Sweat dripped down her forehead like rain, blurring her vision. There were also several new wounds on her body, and blood flowed out, staining her clothes red.
"You little bitch, why don't you surrender? Otherwise, I'll leave you with no intact body!" The robbers shouted triumphantly, and their arrogant laughter echoed in the night sky.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and thought to himself: "I, Lin Xiao, will never give in like this! Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will fight to the end!"
At this critical moment, a strange light suddenly flashed across the sky, and that light was like a meteor, instantly illuminating the entire night sky. Then, a mysterious figure appeared in front of Lin Xiao like a ghost.
"Who?" The robbers were frightened by this sudden change, and the arrogance on their faces instantly turned into fear.
The mysterious man was wearing a black robe, and was shrouded in darkness from head to toe, so his face could not be seen clearly. But the powerful aura emanating from him made people shudder.
"Little girl, are you okay?" The mysterious man's voice was low and magnetic, as if carrying an invisible magic.
Lin Xiao looked at him in surprise, her eyes full of confusion and gratitude: "Thank you for your help, sir. I am very grateful."
The mysterious man smiled slightly, the smile faintly visible in the darkness: "Follow me."
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and followed the mysterious man out of this troubled place.
They rushed all the way and came to a cave hidden at the foot of the mountain. The mysterious man stopped and turned to look at Lin Xiao.
"Come in, there's what you need inside." The mysterious man's voice echoed in the empty valley.
Lin Xiao walked into the cave full of doubts, and saw a strange light flashing on the cave wall. The light was like a dancing flame or a flowing galaxy, mysterious and beautiful.
"What on earth is this?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Just as she approached the cave wall to take a closer look, suddenly, a huge vortex appeared in the light, and a strong suction force instantly sucked her in...
