[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game

Ximen Chuxue had been out for a long time. If Lin Xian'er hadn't felt any pain, she would have almost suspected that Ximen Chuxue had died outside. Just when she put on her clothes and was about to go out to look for someone, Ximen Chuxue finally came back.

The dark and damp underground passage was warmed by the fire, but as soon as he came in, he was filled with an overwhelming chill. His face had returned to its former paleness, and his eyes still revealed a haughty look, as if there was no one in this world that he took seriously, as if his emotions and pain just now were just Lin Xianer's fantasy.

He looked at Lin Xian'er and asked, "Have you rested well?"

Lin Xian'er lowered her head, sighed deeply, and couldn't help feeling angry.

She couldn't understand why Ximen Chuxue didn't continue when he was clearly a man with desires. He was clearly attracted to her and the relationship was already on the verge of breaking out. Lin Xian'er had never seen a man like him before, and she had never even heard of him.

But she at least understood one thing, that is, Ximen Chuxue was not a man who was willing to be dominated by desires. His reason overcame his physical instincts, and she would never have another chance.

When Lin Xian'er thought of this, she was so angry that her whole body was burning with hatred! If he won, it would mean that she lost, and her most proud weapon was defeated! This most primitive and most effective weapon against men has always been victorious, how could it be defeated?
She couldn't help but stare at Ximen Chuxue. She had a way of judging people, especially men. She had already looked at Ximen Chuxue carefully. He stood tall and straight, walked with a regular and steady pace, and was very calm when she served him bathing. It was obvious that he was a man of good family. When she hugged him, his body would always be unnaturally tense, so tense that his muscles trembled slightly, which showed that he seldom, or even never, had been close to a woman.

How could a man like this resist her temptation?

Lin Xian'er certainly didn't think it was her fault. She glared at Ximen Chuxue angrily and made the same comment as Shi Guanyin:
"I always thought you were not a man, but now I realize I was wrong. Not only are you not a man, you are not even a human being! Those monsters out there are the same kind as you!"

In response, Ximen Chuxue only said one sentence.

One sentence, one word.

"Walk."

……

There are two levels of underground passages. The road ahead becomes more and more gloomy and terrifying as you go further. To Lin Xian'er, the road dotted with chopped-up corpses or limbs and blood can no longer be considered scary. It just looks disgusting at most. The truly terrifying thing is the monsters that growl from time to time in the darkness, the attacks that suddenly jump in front of her, and the ghost hands that hide and suddenly reach out to her!
The stench of blood gradually faded, replaced by the light of torches that reflected on the wall but could not cast any shadows. Not far away, the nightmare-like roar of the monster rang in the ears again.

"It seems that Shi Guanyin didn't come to the second floor." Lin Xian'er whispered: "It's strange, she cleaned the first floor so thoroughly, why didn't she come to the second floor?"

Her voice was trembling, and the torch in her hand was shaking, shining on the wall to the left and the ground to the right. She knew Ximen Chuxue was not a talkative person, but she had to say something, preferably non-stop, otherwise she was afraid she would be scared crazy.

Ximen Chuxue, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. The sharp edge of the sword could not pierce the darkness in the cave, but left behind a gust of wind filled with murderous aura.

"Follow me."

After saying that, Ximen Chuxue didn't care whether Lin Xian'er could really keep up or not. He suddenly rushed forward several steps. His body movements were erratic, and the whole person seemed to be swept up by a gust of wind and blown several feet away.

Lin Xian'er's heart skipped a beat and she ran after him: "What happened? Is it..."

She didn't ask any further, and Ximen Chuxue didn't have to answer. A fireball was already flying towards them, hitting the place where they had just stood.

The fireball hit the wall... and shattered into pieces. Clusters of flames scattered everywhere, and a little bit of hot light suddenly illuminated the surroundings.

Lin Xian'er was so frightened that she screamed after just one look. Even Ximen Chuxue felt his heart tighten and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back.

The white bones were sharpening their knives, the red-skinned monster was approaching step by step, the dead bodies stood up from the ground, and the miserable zombie raised its bandaged, broken and boned hands high!
A two-meter-tall giant ape, a demonized rogue soldier, and an extremely agile strange bird flying around in the sky...

They had been surrounded by countless monsters of all kinds! In other words, without knowing the way forward, they had actually entered the monster's lair!
Lin Xian'er couldn't help but take two steps back, her back pressed against the stone wall. Every part of her body was shaking. What made her feel even more desperate was that Ximen Chuxue was the same as her.

He seemed very frightened, his body seemed to be pressed against the wall, and he almost stopped breathing.

boom--

Fiery arrows kept shooting over, which seemed to be some kind of attack signal. After the arrows, fireballs, poisonous stingers, and javelins came raining down from the sky, followed by scimitars. Then came the roar of giant apes and the howl of zombies... These monsters actually pounced on them together!

Lin Xian'er screamed in despair again and closed her eyes.

The imagined pain did not come, her eyelashes trembled, and she opened her eyes again.

A sword stood in front of her.

Ximen Chuxue was standing right in front of her.

He swung his sword, and the sword energy swept across, cutting off the fireballs and arrows, and rolling away the poisonous stings. The giant ape's body was pierced, and the zombies and skeletons were split in half. The demonized rogue soldiers kept screaming, and the fallen souls drilled out of their bodies. Lightning flashed and the souls dissipated. This was the fastest sword Lin Xian'er had ever seen!

But no matter how fast it is, it can't compare to the speed of the monsters' resurrection.

It's the wizard again! They often hide in the corners and cast their summoning magic, constantly summoning the monsters in these areas back to the human world.

These are the lowest level monsters, without even thoughts. The only thing they know is to use the weapons in their hands to swing and chop, turning living people into their own kind.

They usually don't have any murderous intent, because killing is like eating and drinking for humans, it is an instinct engraved in their genes.

Lin Xian'er was still leaning against the wall, still trembling with fear, but she picked up the bow and arrow again.

It was the same in the trial field, the ghosts outside the door rushed in, and the ghost hands almost strangled her neck. She had nowhere to retreat and no way to survive, so all her fears turned into a fight to the death!
Whoever wants me to die, I will kill him!
Draw the bow, put the arrow on it, and shoot an arrow through the throat of the wizard hiding in the corner!

She immediately fired the second and third arrows. In the narrow cave, the bowstrings kept making banging sounds!

Gradually, they tore a hole in the monster's encirclement, and behind the hole was a faint light.

It turns out the exit is so close.

At this time, the quiver on Lin Xian'er's back was empty, and she also put a short distance between herself and Ximen Chuxue.

Ximen Chuxue was still surrounded by monsters, but he always stood in front of her and protected her tightly.

She was very close to the exit.

Go outside, as long as she goes outside, to a wide place, even if she can't beat him, she can always run away.

Lin Xian'er took a few more steps towards the exit. She held a small bottle of healing red medicine in her hand. She asked in a low voice, "Can you still resist?"

Ximen Chuxue did not answer, nor did he have time to answer. Lin Xian'er didn't want to hear his answer at all.

She turned around and ran, not daring to delay for a moment, and Ximen Chuxue who was blocking her way was left far behind!
In such a narrow and dark place, with so many hidden weapons and so many monsters that made people desperate... Could Ximen Chuxue really stop them? Would he get hurt? Would he die? Lin Xian'er didn't think about any of these questions. She only had one thing in her mind, that was to escape!
The further away the better!

She would rather go outside in the rain, turn over those dirty and broken corpses, be chased around by monsters, and even die now than stay in that terrible cave for a moment!
Thank God, she finally escaped and got very far.

Ximen Chuxue did not escape, he was still inside, and Lin Xian'er really couldn't take care of him.

The sky began to darken, and she ran like a headless fly. She had no idea how long it had been, nor where she had ended up. Occasionally, some monsters would notice her, but before they could get close to her, she would leave them far behind.

Until she could no longer run and her violent breathing made her chest feel like it was about to explode, she slowly sat down against a dead tree.

The rain stopped, the sky became darker and colder, Lin Xian'er curled herself up tightly into a ball, unable to help but feel her eyes getting hot and her nose feeling sore.

This was not the first time she abandoned Ximen Chuxue. In the morning, they also encountered the nest of two monsters. Ximen Chuxue also stood in front of her, and she also turned around and ran. When she thought the time was almost up, she tentatively went back and used her spear to hit the monsters that were not dead yet twice.

Ximen Chuxue never said anything about her behavior, and even deliberately left a few monsters for her to kill, and she took it for granted.

The situation this time seems to be no different from usual... maybe just one little difference.

She also clearly felt that the moment the fire in the cave lit up, Ximen Chuxue was also frightened. During the fight, he certainly had the opportunity to escape like her.

But he didn't.

Lin Xian'er couldn't help but cover her face and cry bitterly.

It was not because she was touched by being protected, nor was it because she was afraid because of worry, but because her personality was degraded to dust in front of that person!
Her sense of shame was finally awakened, and she was being tortured with a torture close to lingchi!
Suddenly! A sharp pain that seemed to be able to split a person in half suddenly came upon her body, the pain rose from her chest and went straight to her lower abdomen, as if someone really had cut her body open with a knife!
She brought medicine with her, but before she could drink it, she fainted from the severe pain.

Before her consciousness completely sank into darkness, she vaguely felt as if she was lifted up, and the hand touching her was sticky and cold, definitely not a human hand.
