Chapter 320 "The Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Counterattack"
Lin Xiao had just successfully resolved the epidemic crisis in the village. At this moment, she was like a puddle of mud, exhausted and leaning against the old tree that seemed to have witnessed countless years of vicissitudes. The weak but warm afterglow of the setting sun shone through the gaps between the dense leaves, and fell on her like golden silk threads. She was panting heavily, and her breathing was rapid and heavy, as if a bellows was pulling desperately.
Lin Xiao's forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat, which rolled down like pearls from a broken string, dripping onto the dry and cracked land, and were instantly swallowed up by the thirsty earth without a trace. Her eyes revealed a trace of deep fatigue, which was the fatigue after experiencing countless hardships, but deep in that fatigue, there was a flash of determination and unyielding light, like a burning flame that would never go out.
"This damn epidemic has exhausted me to the point of almost dying!" Lin Xiao muttered to himself, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, his voice a little hoarse and helpless.
Suddenly, a gust of wind whistled past without warning. The sound was as sharp as the howling of ghosts and wolves, and the branches around them swayed wildly, making creaking and painful groans. Lin Xiao suddenly had a strong sense of foreboding in her heart, and her body instantly tensed up, like a fully drawn bowstring.
At this moment, a group of black shadows approached quickly from a distance like ghosts. Lin Xiao widened his eyes, trying to see these uninvited guests clearly. They were all wearing black armor, which flashed a cold and strange light under the afterglow of the setting sun. They all wore hideous and terrifying masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes full of murderous intent.
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao shouted, her voice full of vigilance and anger. Her hands tightly grasped the sword at her waist, and her knuckles turned white from the force.
A tall guy like an iron tower walked out from the mysterious crowd. Every time he took a step, the ground seemed to tremble slightly. His voice was like thunder exploding in my ears: "Lin Xiao, you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended. Today is the day you die!"
Lin Xiao frowned, like two sharp sword-like eyebrows, and her eyes were full of determination and fearlessness. She held the sword tightly with both hands, and pulled the sword halfway out of the scabbard, and the sword body flashed with a cold light. "Humph, you want to kill me? It's not that easy! Come on if you have the guts!" Lin Xiao roared.
After that, Lin Xiao rushed towards the mysterious man like lightning. Her movements were agile and decisive, like a swift cheetah. Her hair fluttered in the wind, and her eyes burned with anger. The sword in her hand flashed a cold light in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if to split a hole in this dark world.
The mysterious people were not to be outdone and they all drew their weapons. For a moment, the flashes of swords and the shadows of sabers were intertwined and the shouts of killing were deafening.
Lin Xiao leaned sideways, like a nimble swallow, and lightly dodged the oncoming sword. At the same time, she swung her sword back, and the blade of her saber flashed across the night sky like lightning, accurately slicing across the arm of a mysterious man.
"Ah!" The mysterious man screamed, covered the bleeding wound, and staggered back.
"Be careful!" Lin Xiao suddenly heard Mo Yu's familiar and anxious voice.
She subconsciously looked back and saw a sharp arrow shooting towards her back like a meteor. At this critical moment, Lin Xiao showed amazing reaction speed. She fell forward suddenly, and the sharp arrow almost brushed her head, bringing up a gust of wind.
"Mo Yu, why are you here?" Lin Xiao asked in surprise, with a hint of surprise and worry in his eyes.
Mo Yu held a long sword in his hand and stood beside Lin Xiao in a heroic manner. His eyes were firm and focused, as if he could see through everything. "I was worried about you, so I came here." Mo Yu said, his voice full of concern.
The two stood back to back, tightly together, resisting the attack of the mysterious man.
"Who are these guys from? I feel like they have bad intentions and seem to be well prepared." Lin Xiao asked loudly while waving his sword to block the enemy's attack.
Mo Yu frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of contemplation. "I don't know either, but judging from their equipment and skills, they are definitely not ordinary enemies." Mo Yu said, the long sword in his hand kept dancing, dispelling the enemy's attacks one by one.
The battle became more intense, and Lin Xiao and Mo Yu gradually fell into trouble. The mysterious man's attack became more and more fierce, like a storm, making them almost breathless. Their physical strength was constantly depleted, and their movements began to become slow.
At this moment, Lin Xiao, relying on his keen observation skills, suddenly discovered that there was a subtle flaw in the mysterious man's formation.
"Mo Yu, follow me!" Lin Xiao shouted, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Mo Yu understood what he meant and followed Lin Xiao without hesitation. The two of them rushed towards the slightest flaw like two sharp swords.
After a fierce fight, Lin Xiao and Mo Yu finally succeeded in breaking out of the encirclement of the mysterious man.
"Huh... I finally escaped." Lin Xiao said while panting, her chest heaving violently as if a bellows was being pulled desperately.
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a bottomless, misty canyon suddenly appeared in front of them. The canyon was like a giant beast with its bloody mouth wide open, waiting to devour them.
"What should I do?" Lin Xiao looked at the bottomless canyon with a look of despair on her face. Her eyes were full of fear and helplessness, as if at this moment, all hope was shattered.
Mo Yu gritted his teeth, his eyes revealing a firm determination. "Don't be afraid, I have a way." Mo Yu said, his voice was steady and powerful, as if it injected a shot of adrenaline into Lin Xiao.
