Chapter 157: The Life and Death Decision of Lin Xiao and Mo Yu
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu stood side by side on the top of the towering and extremely steep mountain. The strong wind was like a mad beast, howling and sweeping over them, as if it was going to tear them off the cliff.
Lin Xiao's hair fluttered in the wind. Her face was pale, but her eyes revealed a complex emotion of determination and confusion. She bit her lips tightly and said in a trembling voice: "Mo Yu, is it right or wrong for us to come to this point? I feel like I am groping in the dark and I can't see the road ahead at all."
Mo Yu held her hand tightly, his eyes firm and gentle, and comforted her: "Lin Xiao, don't think too much. We have been through so many ups and downs along the way. Which time did we not survive with firm belief?"
Lin Xiao trembled slightly, with his arms folded across his chest, as if trying to resist the fear in his heart: "But this decision is too important. If the wrong choice is made, the consequences will be disastrous. I'm really afraid that I will hurt everyone."
Mo Yu held her in his arms, patted her back gently, and said, "Don't be afraid, baby. I'm here. Even if the sky falls, I will hold it up for you."
At this moment, a strange light suddenly flashed across the sky. The light was as bright as a meteor, but it carried a strange aura. Then, a dull thunder rolled in, as if the sky was roaring angrily.
Lin Xiao broke free from Mo Yu's arms, widened his eyes, and said in horror: "What's going on? Is God warning us?"
Mo Yu looked up at the sky, frowned, and said solemnly: "Perhaps, this is a test given to us by fate. But no matter what, we can't back down."
After that, a mysterious figure appeared in front of them like a ghost. This person exuded a strong and evil aura that made people shudder.
The mysterious man sneered, his voice sounding like it came from the abyss of the underworld: "Lin Xiao, Mo Yu, do you think you can escape the arrangement of fate? It's just a foolish dream!"
Lin Xiao glared at the mysterious man, clenched his fists, and shouted, "Who are you? Why are you stopping us?"
The mysterious man laughed loudly, and that laughter made people shudder: "Who am I? Humph, you are not qualified to know. But you all have to die here today!"
Mo Yu stepped forward, the sword in his hand flashing with a cold light, and roared: "Stop talking nonsense, I'm here, and I will never let you hurt Lin Xiao!"
The mysterious man snorted disdainfully and waved his hand lightly. A powerful force rushed towards Lin Xiao and Mo Yu like a huge wave.
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu quickly cast spells to resist. For a moment, the light shone and the entire mountain was covered in colorful light.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao clenched her teeth, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead. Her body was trembling slightly, but her eyes were full of stubbornness and indomitable spirit.
Mo Yu shouted loudly: "Lin Xiao, hold on! We will definitely be able to defeat him!"
After a fierce contest, Lin Xiao and Mo Yu gradually fell into a disadvantage. Their breathing became rapid and their physical strength was rapidly consumed.
The mysterious man said proudly: "Give up, you can't defeat me. Just accept your death obediently, and maybe you can suffer less pain."
A trace of determination flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Even if we die, we will not surrender! The worst that can happen is that we will die together!"
At this critical moment, Lin Xiao suddenly felt a mysterious power awakening in her body. This power was like a surging tide, rushing through her meridians.
"This...what's going on?" Lin Xiao said in surprise.
Mo Yu looked at her in surprise: "Lin Xiao, maybe this is our chance to turn defeat into victory!"
Lin Xiao closed his eyes, concentrated, and tried to control this mysterious power.
The mysterious man noticed something was wrong and his face turned gloomy: "No, we can't let her control this power!" As he said that, he increased the intensity of his attack again.
Lin Xiao suddenly opened her eyes and shouted loudly: "Take it!" A powerful energy burst out from her hands, instantly dissolving the mysterious man's attack.
The mysterious man was pushed back a few steps by this force, with an expression of disbelief on his face: "Impossible! How could you..."
Before he could finish, Lin Xiao and Mo Yu took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. They cooperated well and used fierce moves, forcing the mysterious man to retreat step by step.
"Hmph, let's see how long you can be so arrogant!" Lin Xiao shouted.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the mysterious man wanted to escape.
How could Mo Yu let him do what he wanted? He rushed forward and blocked his way: "Want to run? That's not that easy!"
In the end, under the joint attack of Lin Xiao and Mo Yu, the mysterious man was completely defeated and turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared into the air.
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu collapsed on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath.
"It's finally over..." Lin Xiao said.
Mo Yu held her hand and said with a smile: "Yes, but this is just the beginning. There will be more challenges waiting for us in the future."
Lin Xiao nodded, his eyes full of determination: "Well, no matter what, we will face it together."
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the sun shone on them, as if cheering for their victory...
