Chapter 308: The Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Life and Death Decision
Lin Xiao stood alone on the top of the mountain that towered into the clouds. The wind roared like a mad beast, tearing her clothes and hair wantonly. Her petite body seemed so thin in the wind, but she also showed a stubborn tenacity.
Lin Xiao's eyes were filled with a complex mixture of confusion and determination. She bit her lower lip tightly, her teeth sinking deeply into the tender skin, as if she was using the pain to stay awake. Looking at the terrifying sky in the distance with changing clouds, lightning and thunder, her heart seemed to be filled with thousands of troops and horses galloping.
"This horrible weather is simply driving me crazy! Is this some kind of life-or-death trap set by God for me?" Lin Xiao couldn't help cursing as he gasped for breath in the strong wind.
At this moment, a dark shadow appeared behind her like a ghost. Lin Xiao's back tensed instantly, and her reaction was as fast as lightning. The long sword in her hand was unsheathed with a "swish", and the cold light pointed directly at the dark shadow.
"Who? How dare you trespass here!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, her voice trembling in the wind but full of determination. Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring at the black shadow closely, as if she wanted to see through him.
The black shadow slowly revealed its figure, and it was Mo Yu.
"It's me, Lin Xiao." Mo Yu's voice was low and magnetic, and it still reached Lin Xiao's ears clearly in the strong wind.
Lin Xiao was slightly startled, then put down the sword, but the vigilance in her eyes did not diminish at all. "Why are you here?" she asked, with a hint of subtle surprise and more confusion in her tone.
Mo Yu walked to Lin Xiao with steady steps and stood side by side with her. The strong wind lifted his sleeves, but it could not shake his firm posture at all. "I'm worried about you." Mo Yu replied briefly, looking deeply at the sky with wind and clouds.
Lin Xiao snorted and turned her head away: "I don't need you to worry about me, I can handle it myself." A hint of stubbornness and pride flashed across her face.
Mo Yu smiled slightly, that smile seemed so charming and helpless in the strong wind: "But you don't look like you can handle it now."
Lin Xiao glared at him, anger burning in his eyes: "Don't give me that, tell me, what do you want from me?"
Mo Yu's face became serious, as if the gloomy sky was weighing on his heart. "Lin Xiao, a huge crisis is coming, and we must make a choice." His voice was low and heavy.
Lin Xiao frowned, and her delicate brows looked even more charming in the strong wind: "What crisis?"
Mo Yu took a deep breath, as if he wanted to dig out the heavy words from the bottom of his heart: "A mysterious organization has risen. They have great power and intend to rule the entire Fantasy World Continent. We can either join them and become their lackeys; or become their enemy and embark on a road of life and death."
Lin Xiao said without hesitation: "Needless to say, of course we will be enemies with them! I, Lin Xiao, will not bow to those evil forces!" Her voice was firm and powerful, and the long sword in her hand made a clanging sound in the wind.
Mo Yu smiled bitterly, and that smile was filled with endless worry: "But do you know what this means? This will be an extremely difficult battle, and it may even cost our lives. The enemies we face are extremely powerful, their methods are cruel, and their schemes are full of conspiracy."
Lin Xiao clenched the sword in her hand, and the blade trembled slightly because of her strength. Her eyes were as firm as a rock, without a trace of retreat: "Even if I die, I will never surrender! I, Lin Xiao, have never been afraid of death, but I am afraid of living without dignity!"
Mo Yu looked at her, with a hint of admiration and heartache in his eyes: "Well, you are worthy of being Lin Xiao. But we can't act blindly, we must make a careful plan. We must understand the enemy's weaknesses, find allies, and prepare sufficient resources. This will be a long and arduous war."
At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly gathered together to form a huge vortex. A strange light shot out from the vortex, like the eyes of a demon, staring coldly at Lin Xiao and Mo Yu. The light carried a mysterious and evil power that made people shudder.
"What is this?" Lin Xiao said in surprise, with a hint of fear in his voice.
Mo Yu's face changed drastically, and his handsome face turned pale in an instant: "Oh no, this may be the power of a mysterious organization. They have already sensed our resistance and have taken action in advance!"
The light became stronger and stronger, enveloping the two of them. Lin Xiao only felt a strong force pulling him, and his body flew towards the vortex involuntarily.
"Mo Yu, save me!" Lin Xiao shouted for help, but his voice seemed so small and helpless in the light.
Mo Yu stretched out his hand and tried to grab Lin Xiao, but the force was too strong and he couldn't get close at all. "Lin Xiao!" Mo Yu's voice was full of anxiety and helplessness, and his eyes were full of despair and unwillingness.
"No! I can't be swept away like this!" Lin Xiao shouted in her heart. She struggled desperately, trying to break free from the restraint of that force.
Just as Lin Xiao was about to be sucked into the vortex, a powerful light suddenly burst out from her body, competing with the strange light. The light was as dazzling as the sun, illuminating the entire mountain.
"I won't be defeated so easily!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice full of indomitable spirit and courage.
The light gradually dissipated, and Lin Xiao slowly fell from the sky. Her body became weak due to excessive consumption, and her face was as pale as paper.
Mo Yu quickly ran over and supported her shaky body. "Are you okay?" His voice was full of concern and worry.
Lin Xiao panted and tried to force a smile: "Fortunately, I won't die for the time being. But this is just the beginning, we still have many challenges to face."
The two looked at each other, knowing that the road ahead would be even more difficult, full of unknowns and dangers. But there was no sign of retreat in their eyes, only firm determination and fearless courage.
