Chapter 395 "The Storm of Fantasy World: The Mystery of Lin Xiao's Courage to Enter the Desperate Situation"
Lin Xiao stood alone in the vast desert. The wind was like a mad beast, whistling and rolling up the yellow sand, forming huge whirlpools. The sand hit her face like bullets, making her grimace in pain. She squinted her eyes tightly, her brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly, and she kept cursing: "This damn place, how did I end up like this!"
At this moment, she was in tatters, and her neat clothes were torn into tatters by the wind and sand, like strips of cloth hanging on her body. Her lips were as dry as the land after a long drought, oozing blood, and her face was covered with thick sand and dust, only her eyes still revealed a trace of stubbornness and unyielding.
Suddenly, a dull thunder rumbled from the sky, like the roar of an ancient beast. Dark clouds gathered at an alarming speed, instantly dyeing the sky pitch black. Then, bean-sized raindrops fell cracklingly.
"Oh, the rain comes at such a bad time!" Lin Xiao complained while frantically trying to find a place to hide.
The rain quickly gathered into turbulent streams on the sand, forming patches of muddy swamps. Lin Xiao's feet sank in at once, and she struggled desperately to pull her feet out, but the more she struggled, the deeper she sank.
"Help! Someone save me!" Lin Xiao shouted at the top of his lungs, but his voice seemed so small and helpless in the storm.
Just when she was about to despair, a strong big hand grabbed her arm tightly.
"It's you!" Lin Xiao was surprised and happy, his eyes widened.
Mo Yu had a serious face, the rain running down his cheeks, he gritted his teeth and said: "Don't move, I'll pull you out!"
Lin Xiao seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and stopped struggling obediently. Mo Yu took great effort to pull her out of the quagmire.
The two stumbled towards a small hill not far away, where there was a cave that looked like it could provide some shelter from the rain.
"Oh, I'm so tired!" Lin Xiao sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.
Mo Yu was also exhausted. He leaned against the cave wall and said, "Take a rest first, and think of a solution after the rain stops."
Lin Xiao raised his head, looked at Mo Yu, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Mo Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I have been protecting you in secret, but I didn't expect that I would still let you fall into such danger."
Lin Xiao felt warm in his heart, but then he became alert again: "Protect me? What is your purpose?"
Mo Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Actually, I know some secrets about you. Someone wants to use you to achieve an ulterior motive."
Lin Xiao's eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "What secret? I don't even know what secret I have!"
Mo Yu glanced at her and said, "This is a long story. I will tell you slowly after we are out of danger."
At this moment, a strange sound came from outside the cave, as if something was approaching. The sound was getting closer and closer, as if it was hovering at the entrance of the cave.
"What's that sound?" Lin Xiao turned pale with fright and grabbed Mo Yu's arm tightly.
Mo Yu frowned and said in a low voice: "Don't make a sound, it might be something dangerous."
The two held their breath and listened quietly to the movements outside the cave.
