Chapter 165: "Fantasy World: Lin Xiaomoyu's Adventure of Breaking Out of Despair"
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu stood side by side in front of the ancient and mysterious castle. The castle was towering into the clouds, and the walls were covered with strange vines that snaked like snakes, as if they were hideous scars left by the years. In the gloomy sky, dark clouds piled up like heavy lead blocks. From time to time, dazzling lightning flashed across, instantly illuminating everything around, followed by deafening thunder, as if the sky was roaring in anger.
Lin Xiao frowned, her beautiful eyes full of vigilance and uneasiness. She bit her lips tightly and said with a trembling voice: "Mo Yu, why does this place feel so gloomy? I feel creepy."
Mo Yu turned his head and gave Lin Xiao a firm and gentle look. He reached out and held Lin Xiao's hand, comforting her: "Don't be afraid, Xiao'er, I'm here and won't let you get hurt."
They carefully stepped into the castle, and the heavy door made a dull creaking sound, as if a long-sleeping beast had been awakened by them and was protesting in dissatisfaction. The castle was filled with a pungent smell of decay, and the dim light made people feel like they were in a fog, making it difficult to see the road ahead.
"What the hell is this place?" Lin Xiao couldn't help but complain. Her voice echoed in the empty castle, sounding particularly clear.
Suddenly, a sinister laugh suddenly rang out in the empty hall. The laugh seemed to come from the depths of hell, making people shudder. "Hahahaha..."
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu's bodies froze instantly. They looked around in horror but couldn't see any figure.
"Who? Who is playing tricks there? Come out here if you dare!" Mo Yu shouted loudly, his voice full of anger and courage.
At this moment, a dark shadow flew past their heads like a ghost, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.
Lin Xiao screamed in fright, "Ah!" Her face turned pale as paper in an instant, and her body involuntarily hid behind Mo Yu.
Mo Yu quickly protected Lin Xiao behind him, drew the sword from his waist, and looked as sharp as an eagle. "Don't be afraid, Xiao'er, I won't let anything happen to you."
They continued to go deeper into the castle cautiously, and every step they took seemed to hear strange noises coming from under their feet. They came to a room with a closed door and strange symbols engraved on it, which made them puzzled.
Just as Mo Yu was about to reach out to push open the door, Lin Xiao hurriedly stopped him, "Wait, Mo Yu, I have a very bad feeling."
Mo Yu hesitated for a moment, looked at Lin Xiao's worried eyes, and finally decided to push the door open. The moment the door opened, a thick smoke gushed out of the room, instantly enveloping them, and their vision became extremely blurred.
"Be careful!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice full of tension.
At this moment, a huge monster suddenly rushed out from the smoke, opened its bloody mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and spewed out a hot breath from its mouth.
Mo Yu didn't hesitate at all and immediately swung his sword towards the monster, "Xiao'er, quickly find a place to hide!"
Lin Xiao did not back down. She formed seals with her hands and cast a spell. Rays of light shot out from her hands. "Humph, I won't hide. Mo Yu, let's defeat it together!"
Mo Yu's swordsmanship was sharp, and every move carried the force of breaking the wind, while Lin Xiao's magic was shining, and he cooperated with Mo Yu perfectly.
"Watch my ultimate move!" Mo Yu shouted loudly.
"I'm coming too, take it!" Lin Xiao shouted.
After a thrilling and dangerous battle, they finally succeeded in repelling the monster. However, before they could catch their breath, the walls of the room began to move slowly, making a "creaking" sound, as if an ancient mechanism had been activated.
"Oh no, this is a trap!" Mo Yu's face suddenly became solemn.
Lin Xiao said anxiously: "What should we do? Mo Yu, we have to find a way out quickly!"
They began looking for an exit, groping their way through the smoke-filled room.
"This way, Mo Yu!" Lin Xiao shouted.
"No, Xiao'er, come this way!" Mo Yu retorted.
As they were arguing, a mysterious voice sounded in their ears...
