Chapter 95: "Lin Xiao's Fateful Choice"
The night was like a huge piece of black silk, heavily covering the entire Fantasy World. The stars were dotted, but they seemed to be suffocated by the thick darkness and could only flicker weakly. Lin Xiao wandered alone outside the ancient castle, and the cold moonlight sprinkled on her delicate but slightly haggard face like water, outlining a series of light and dark lines.
The wind blew softly and strangely, like a pair of invisible hands, wantonly playing with her hair. Lin Xiao frowned, biting her lower lip with her pearly teeth, leaving a shallow mark on her pink lips. Her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes, and the originally smooth corners of her clothes were wrinkled, as if she was in a tangled mess that could not be untied.
"Where should I go?" She murmured to herself, her voice trembling, like a dead leaf blown down by the cold wind in late autumn. The confused and helpless look left deep marks on her beautiful face.
At this moment, Mo Yu rushed over like a gust of wind. His breathing was rapid, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which sparkled in the moonlight.
"Lin Xiao, the situation has become more complicated." Mo Yu said anxiously while panting. His eyes revealed anxiety and uneasiness, like the surging waves before a storm.
Lin Xiao raised her head, and a hint of expectation flashed in her beautiful eyes, like a candlelight suddenly lit in the darkness. "What's wrong?" Her voice rose slightly, with a hint of urgency.
Mo Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm his breathing, and said: "We have new clues about the mysterious treasure we have been looking for, but at the same time, we are facing stronger enemies. They have noticed our actions and are setting a trap to catch us." His expression was serious and solemn, as if he was telling a terrible nightmare.
Lin Xiao frowned, her pretty eyebrows twisted into a knot, and her expression instantly became serious. "What should I do?" Her voice was full of worry, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Mo Yu took a step forward and held Lin Xiao's shoulders, his eyes as firm as a burning torch. "We can't retreat, but this choice is about life and death." His voice was low and powerful, as if he was making a solemn oath.
Lin Xiao was silent for a moment, and the confusion in her eyes was gradually replaced by determination. Suddenly, she raised her head, and her eyes showed a desperate courage. "No matter what, I will try." Her voice was firm and loud, as if she was challenging fate.
Mo Yu nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. "Okay, then we'll do it together." His voice was full of determination.
The two sneaked into the castle quietly. The castle was filled with a creepy and gloomy atmosphere. The torches on the wall were swaying, emitting a strange light, as if telling the ancient secrets of the castle.
"Be careful." Lin Xiao lowered her voice and reminded Mo Yu softly. Her steps were light and cautious, and every step seemed to be testing the unknown danger.
Mo Yu carefully pushed open a heavy wooden door. It was pitch black inside, as if it was an endless black hole that was about to swallow them.
"There's something weird about this place." Mo Yu couldn't help but mutter, with a slight tremor in his voice.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew without warning, instantly blowing out the torches in their hands. Darkness instantly swallowed them up, and fear surged into their hearts like a tide.
"Not good!" Lin Xiao's heart tightened and his heartbeat accelerated instantly.
At this moment, a group of dark shadows emerged from the darkness like ghosts and pounced towards them with a suffocating feeling of oppression.
"Fight them!" Lin Xiao shouted and drew out her sword. The sword flashed with cold light, reflecting her determined and fearless face.
Mo Yu was not afraid at all. He instantly entered combat state and started a fierce fight with the black shadows.
"Watch me!" Mo Yu shouted, waving the weapon in his hand vigorously.
Lin Xiao's body was agile, like a nimble swallow, moving freely in the shadows. "Don't even think about touching me!" she said tenderly.
The two people cooperated well in the battle, but there were still dangers everywhere.
"Oh, this guy is so difficult to deal with!" Lin Xiao said, panting.
"Hold on!" Mo Yu responded.
Just as they were gradually gaining the upper hand, a sinister laugh suddenly rang out in the castle.
"Hahahaha, do you think you can escape so easily?" A mysterious voice sounded in the darkness.
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu looked at each other, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.
How will this battle end? Can Lin Xiao and Mo Yu successfully find the treasure and escape the enemy's pursuit? The gears of fate are turning wildly at this moment, and everything is full of unknowns...
