Chapter 315: "Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Journey to Explore the Mysteries of Tianshan"
Lin Xiao had just dealt with the gangsters and was standing on the busy street, breathing heavily. Her forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat, like dew on lotus leaves in the morning, sparkling in the sunlight. The sweat slid down her cheeks and dripped onto her tattered clothes, and was instantly absorbed.
"Hmph, these bastards dare to be so arrogant in front of me!" Lin Xiao wiped the sweat off her face with her hands and muttered to herself with gritted teeth. Her eyes revealed an undisguised anger that seemed to be able to spit out fire.
The crowd gathered around, pointing at Lin Xiao and talking in low voices.
"This girl is really fierce. She took care of that group of thugs by herself!"
"That's right, but she was too impulsive. Now she's in big trouble."
Lin Xiao listened to these discussions with a frown on his face, looking impatient.
"What are you looking at! There's nothing good to see!" she shouted, her voice filled with anger.
Suddenly, a gust of wind whistled past, blowing Lin Xiao's hair and clothes wildly. The originally clear sky was instantly covered by a few dark clouds, and the sunlight was also blocked behind the clouds. The whole world seemed to have darkened all of a sudden.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but shudder, feeling an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
At this moment, a mysterious figure appeared in front of Lin Xiao like a ghost. This person was dressed in a black robe, tightly wrapped from head to toe, and had a black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes flashing with cold light.
"Little girl, you're in big trouble." The mysterious man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from the depths of hell, with a creepy chill.
Lin Xiao looked at him warily, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and his body leaned back slightly in a defensive posture.
"What trouble? Just say what you want to say and stop playing tricks!" Lin Xiao's voice was full of provocation and disdain.
The mysterious man sneered, and the laughter echoed in the wind, making people shudder.
"Those thugs are not ordinary thugs. There is a huge dark organization behind them. This organization is evil in the underworld and its influence is spread all over the place. If you offend them, you will bring yourself a fatal disaster."
Lin Xiao was shocked, but she remained calm. She straightened her back and looked at the mysterious man with a firm gaze.
"So what? I, Lin Xiao, am not afraid! I want to see what they can do to me!"
The mysterious man shook his head slightly, seeming helpless about Lin Xiao's ignorance of the immensity of the world.
"You are still too young to know the dangers of this world. However, I can show you a way."
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes.
"What road? Tell me about it."
The mysterious man lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard.
"There is a mysterious cave on the top of the distant Tianshan Mountain. It is said that there are endless treasures and secret manuals hidden inside. As long as you can get them, you will have enough power to fight against the dark organization. But this road is full of dangers and there are many ways to survive. You must think carefully."
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment and began to weigh the pros and cons in his mind.
"Is this a trap? Why are you telling me this?"
The mysterious man laughed loudly, and his laughter sounded particularly strange in the wind.
"Believe it or not, this is your only chance. If you miss it, you will be hunted down by the dark organization to the ends of the earth." After saying that, the mysterious man disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he had never appeared.
Lin Xiao looked at the direction where the mysterious man disappeared and fell into deep thought.
"Never mind, let's give it a try!" Lin Xiao made up his mind, his eyes revealing a firm determination.
She set out on a journey to the Tianshan Mountains. Along the way, Lin Xiao encountered all kinds of difficulties and obstacles. The violent storms and rainstorms constantly attacked her, and the raindrops hit her body like bullets, making her feel a sharp pain. The mountain road was rugged and full of thorns and stones. Lin Xiao's feet were worn out with blisters, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
Suddenly, a huge python jumped out from the bushes and pounced on Lin Xiao with its bloody mouth wide open. The python's body was as thick as a pillar, and its scales flashed a cold light in the rain.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed in fear and quickly stepped back. Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
But she quickly calmed down, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.
"It's not that easy to swallow me!" Lin Xiao drew out the sword from his waist and held it tightly in his hand. His arms trembled slightly because of nervousness.
The python quickly coiled around, trying to wrap Lin Xiao tightly. Lin Xiao dodged flexibly, waving the sword in his hand non-stop, and started a life-and-death struggle with the python.
"Go to hell!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice full of anger and courage.
After a fierce battle, Lin Xiao finally found the python's weakness and stabbed it in the vitals. The python let out a painful hiss, fell to the ground and struggled for a few times before it stopped moving.
Lin Xiao collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Her body was covered in mud and blood, and she looked miserable.
"Finally solved..." Lin Xiao muttered to himself.
After a short rest, Lin Xiao continued to move forward. After walking for an unknown amount of time, she finally arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains. The Tianshan Mountains in front of her were towering into the clouds, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland. But Lin Xiao knew that there were countless dangers hidden under this beautiful appearance.
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and began to climb the mountain. The mountain road was steep and slippery, and Lin Xiao had to be careful with every step he took, otherwise he would fall off the cliff.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew, making it almost impossible for Lin Xiao to stand.
"Damn wind!" Lin Xiao cursed.
Just then, a rock rolled down from the mountain and hit Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was quick-witted and dodged the stone by moving sideways.
"That was a close call!" Lin Xiao patted his chest, still feeling scared.
