Chapter 285: Breaking out of a Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Life and Death Decision
Lin Xiao stood alone in front of the ancient, mysterious, and cursed castle. The cold wind at night scraped across her cheeks like a cold knife. The moonlight was like a thin layer of silver gauze, sprinkling on her face full of confusion and fear. Her eyes were wide open, staring at the castle that exuded a strange atmosphere, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"What the hell is this place? Why did I end up here for no apparent reason?" Lin Xiao muttered to himself as he scratched his hair in annoyance. His hair was messy from the wind, like a bird's nest.
She carefully lifted her feet and stepped onto the stairs leading to the castle. Each step felt like stepping on the tip of a knife, and her heart was in her throat. The surrounding trees swayed in the wind, making a "creaking" sound, as if a group of evil ghosts were whispering and laughing at her.
Suddenly, a pitch-black crow flew over her head, cawing. The sound of its wings flapping was particularly harsh in the silent night. Lin Xiao screamed in fear, "Oh my god, this place is too scary!" She hugged her shoulders tightly with both hands, her face was pale, and her lips were trembling constantly.
Walking into the castle hall, a strong stale and decayed smell hit her nose, and Lin Xiao couldn't help but retching. "This smell is so suffocating!" She complained, covering her mouth and nose with her hands, and looking around vigilantly.
The hall was dark and damp, with blurry portraits hanging on the walls, as if telling some unknown horror stories. Lin Xiao felt that his heartbeat was particularly loud in this silent space.
At this moment, a sinister laughter echoed in the hall. The laughter sounded like it came from the depths of hell, making people shudder.
"Who? Who's there? Come out quickly!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice trembling violently. He held the dagger for self-defense tightly in his hand, and his palms were full of cold sweat.
A dark shadow slowly walked out from the corner. His figure was blurry in the dim light, and only a pair of eyes flashing with strange light could be seen.
"Lin Xiao, you're finally here." The shadow's voice seemed to have been frozen for thousands of years, and it was bone-chillingly cold.
Lin Xiao clenched the dagger and said through gritted teeth: "Who are you? Why did you lead me here? If you have the guts, don't hide!" Her eyes were filled with anger and fear, and her body involuntarily stepped back.
The black shadow sneered: "Humph, you don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that your fate has changed from now on. You can't escape, this is destined!"
Lin Xiao glared at him and shouted, "Stop trying to scare me! I, Lin Xiao, was not brought up to be scared! Come at me if you have the guts!"
The black shadow flashed and instantly appeared in front of Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao was so scared that he screamed "Ah" and turned around and tried to run.
"Don't be afraid, little girl." There was a hint of teasing in the black shadow's tone, and he reached out to grab Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao struggled desperately and shouted, "Don't touch me! You monster!"
At this moment, Mo Yu rushed in from outside the castle like a whirlwind.
"Lin Xiao, I'm here to save you!" Mo Yu shouted loudly, his voice full of anxiety and concern.
When Lin Xiao saw Mo Yu, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, and a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in his eyes.
"Mo Yu, be careful of this guy! He's very evil!"
Mo Yu nodded, staring at the shadow with a sharp gaze, "No matter who you are, if you dare to hurt Lin Xiao, I will never let you go!"
The black shadow laughed loudly: "Mo Yu, do you think you can save her? This is her destined disaster! None of you can escape!"
Lin Xiao shouted: "Don't listen to his nonsense, let's deal with him together!"
The three of them started a fierce fight in the castle. Mo Yu used a set of fierce boxing skills, and each punch came with a whirring sound as he attacked the black shadow.
The black shadow was not to be outdone. His figure was as erratic as a ghost. He easily dodged Mo Yu's attacks while counterattacking from time to time.
Lin Xiao watched nervously from the side, holding the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to rush forward to help at any time.
"Mo Yu, come on!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly.
Mo Yu's forehead was covered with sweat, but his eyes remained firm.
"Don't worry, I won't let him succeed!"
The shadow took advantage of Mo Yu's carelessness and kicked him in the chest. Mo Yu was kicked back a few steps, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Mo Yu!" Lin Xiao exclaimed.
Mo Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and rushed forward again.
"I'll fight you!"
Lin Xiao no longer hesitated and rushed towards the shadow waving a dagger.
For a moment, the sound of wind, shouting, and fighting were intertwined, and the entire castle seemed to have turned into a battlefield.
