Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

The energy ball, with its destructive power, fell towards the center of the city. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at this scene in despair, feeling powerless. At this critical moment, a golden barrier suddenly rose above the city, tightly enveloping the energy ball. The violent explosion was deafening, but the city miraculously survived.

"Is that... a protective barrier?" Chu Mengmeng widened her eyes in surprise. This barrier was the city's last line of defense and would only be activated when the city was facing a catastrophic disaster.

"It seems we still have hope." Xiao Yichen took a deep breath, tightly grasped the sword in his hand, and the flame of hope rekindled in his eyes. He knew that the real battle had just begun.

At this moment, a chilling atmosphere came from the other side of the city, entwining everyone's heart like a poisonous snake. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at each other, and at the same time, they had an ominous premonition.

"Let's go! Let's take a look!" The two of them ran towards the direction where the breath came from without hesitation.

At the same time, Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er were in the basement of the city library, flipping through ancient books. They were looking for clues about the dark messenger, hoping to find a way to deal with Xiao Yifeng.

"Look! It's recorded here that the Dark Messenger has the ability to control the power of darkness. He can devour all light and drag the world into endless darkness." Su Mubai pointed to a passage on the parchment and said in a serious tone.

"Could it be that... Xiao Yifeng is the dark messenger?" Lin Wan'er's face turned pale. She couldn't believe that the senior brother she had always respected was actually the legendary demon who destroyed the world.

"It's very likely." Su Mubai nodded solemnly, "We must inform Meng Meng and Yi Chen as soon as possible and tell them to be careful!"

However, before they finished speaking, a powerful dark force enveloped the entire library. The words on the parchment suddenly caught fire and turned into black ashes that floated in the air.

"Oh no! He's coming!" Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er's faces changed drastically. They immediately stood up and prepared to leave the library.

But it was too late.

The door of the library slammed shut, and black mist poured in from the crack of the door, shrouding the entire basement in darkness. Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er were trapped inside, unable to escape.

On the other side of the city, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen had already arrived at the source of the aura - the city square.

At this time, the sky above the square was shrouded in black fog, and the citizens around were in panic and fled in all directions. In the center of the square, a figure in a black robe slowly emerged. He had a hideous mask on his face, and his face could not be seen clearly, but from the terrifying aura emanating from him, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen immediately recognized his identity - Xiao Yifeng!

"Long time no see, Junior Sister, Junior Brother." Xiao Yifeng's voice was hoarse and low, like a demon from hell. He slowly took off his mask, revealing a face full of evil and madness.

"You...you are really the Dark Messenger?" Chu Mengmeng asked in disbelief.

"That's right, I am the dark messenger you have been looking for!" Xiao Yifeng laughed arrogantly, "From today on, this world will be swallowed by darkness! Hahahaha..."

His laughter echoed in the empty square, like a death knell from hell, sounding the prelude to the end of the world...

At the same time, over the city square, black fog spread rapidly like the shadow of a giant beast, and the originally clear sky was dyed into a suffocating black color. The people in the square were terrified, screaming and fleeing in all directions, but there was nowhere to escape.

"What it is?"

"Run! It's the Dark Messenger! He's coming!"

Panic spread among the crowd, like a plague that could not be stopped.

When Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen arrived at the square, they saw a scene like hell on earth. Xiao Yifeng, dressed in black, stood proudly on the fountain in the center of the square. Black mist surrounded him, like a demon from the abyss. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a crazy light flashed in his eyes.

"Xiao Yifeng! What on earth do you want to do!" Chu Mengmeng roared, unsheathing the sword in her hand and pointing it directly at Xiao Yifeng.

"What? Of course, to destroy this world!" Xiao Yifeng laughed wildly towards the sky, "You ants, just submit to the darkness!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand violently, and the black mist turned into countless sharp blades, sweeping towards the crowd.

"Protect the citizens!" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen attacked at the same time, and their sword energy and spiritual power intertwined into an impenetrable defense network, blocking all the black blades.

"All city guardians, listen up! Form a formation! Stop him!"

Following Chu Mengmeng's order, the city guardians who had already gathered around the square drew their weapons one after another, and various colors of spiritual power gathered together to form beams of light, bombarding Xiao Yifeng.

However, facing such a powerful attack, Xiao Yifeng just sneered. He stretched out his hand and gently clenched it, and those light beams seemed to be crushed by an invisible big hand and dissipated in an instant.

"You rubbish think you can stop me?" Xiao Yifeng's eyes were full of contempt. "You really don't know your own limitations!"

After saying that, he flashed and turned into a black lightning, rushing into the formation of the city defenders. Wherever he passed, screams rang out one after another, and blood stained the ground of the square red...

Black lightning flashed between the guardians, taking away several lives with each flash. Desperate wails echoed over the square, and blood dyed the fountain a terrifying dark red. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen stood back to back, resisting Xiao Yifeng's violent attack.

"His strength... is several times stronger than before!" Xiao Yichen gritted his teeth and swung the sword in his hand tightly, but he was still unable to resist.

"Are... we really going to lose?" Su Mubai's voice trembled a little. She had never seen such a powerful enemy before, and the feeling of despair almost swallowed her.

"No, we can't give up!" Chu Mengmeng's eyes were firm and resolute. She looked around and looked at the soldiers who were fighting bloody battles to protect their homeland. An unprecedented power surged in her heart.

"Xiao Yifeng, do you really want to destroy all this? This was your former home, the place you once protected!" Chu Mengmeng's voice echoed in the square, trying to awaken the remaining conscience in Xiao Yifeng's heart.

However, the only response she got was even crazier laughter. "Homeland? Protection? Those are all lies of the weak!" Xiao Yifeng's voice was icy cold, "Only strength is the eternal truth!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a more powerful dark force burst out from Xiao Yifeng's body, knocking the surrounding guardians away. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were also knocked back several steps by this force, with a trace of blood flowing from the corners of their mouths.

"Hahaha, feel the despair! This is the power of darkness!" Xiao Yifeng laughed wildly, with a gleam of destruction flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, Chu Mengmeng suddenly felt a warm power surging in her body. That was... the power of the golden finger!

"Now!" Chu Mengmeng's heart moved, and she pushed the power of the golden finger to the extreme. A golden light burst out from her body, instantly covering the entire square.

"Ah!" Xiao Yifeng covered his eyes in pain, and the dark power receded like a tide.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yifeng was horrified to find that his strength was actually suppressed!

"Take advantage of now!" Chu Mengmeng shouted, and all the guardians understood that this was their last chance.

"For home!"

"For hope!"

All the guardians burst out their last bit of courage, poured all their strength into their weapons, and launched a final attack on Xiao Yifeng.

Xiao Yifeng was caught off guard by this sudden change. Under the joint attack of everyone, he let out an unwilling roar and turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared into the night sky.

"Did we... win?" Su Mubai asked weakly, his tone full of disbelief.

"It's safe...for now." Chu Mengmeng looked in the direction where Xiao Yifeng disappeared, but there was no joy in her eyes, because she knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

Sure enough, just when everyone thought the crisis was over, a cold voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "On the night of the full moon, I will come back with more powerful strength. By then, it will be your doomsday!"

The cold voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, echoing for a long time in the silent square, casting an indelible shadow over this tragic victory.

"Full moon night..." Su Mubai muttered to himself, his face as pale as paper. There were only seven short days left until the full moon night.

"Is it... that we really have no hope?" Lin Wan'er's voice was trembling slightly, and her hand holding the sword was shaking slightly. It was obvious that she had not yet recovered from the fear just now.

Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, swept her eyes across the crowd with determination, and said in a deep voice: "No, we still have hope! Although Xiao Yifeng is powerful, he is still a human being after all. As long as he is a human being, he will have weaknesses!"

"Weakness?" Xiao Yichen frowned and fell into deep thought, "But, what is his weakness?"

Chu Mengmeng remained silent, and the handsome but distorted face of Xiao Yifeng appeared in her mind. His power came from darkness, and his heart was full of hatred. It seemed that nothing could move him.

"Wait!" Chu Mengmeng suddenly thought of something, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, "Maybe... I know his weakness."

"What weakness?" everyone asked in unison, with a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

"Yes..." Chu Mengmeng paused deliberately, observing everyone's reactions, and then slowly said, "It's love."

"Love?" Everyone looked at each other, obviously very surprised by this answer.

"Yes, it's love." Chu Mengmeng nodded affirmatively, "Although Xiao Yifeng has become like this now, deep in his heart, he still retains his feelings for me. I once felt that when he attacked me, there was a hint of hesitation and struggle in his eyes."

"You mean..." Xiao Yichen seemed to understand what Chu Mengmeng meant, "You want to take advantage of his feelings for you, get close to him, and then..."

"That's right!" Chu Mengmeng's eyes flashed with determination, "I will pretend to surrender, get close to Xiao Yifeng, and then give him a fatal blow when he is least prepared!"

"This is too dangerous!" Su Mubai was the first to object. "What if he sees through your plan? You are no match for him with your current strength!"

"I know this is dangerous, but I have no other choice." Chu Mengmeng's eyes were firm. "If we don't take the initiative and wait until the full moon night, we really won't have a chance!"

"Mengmeng, have you really made up your mind?" Xiao Yichen clenched the sword in his hand. He knew Chu Mengmeng's determination and what this battle meant.

Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Yichen firmly, and said word by word: "I have decided! In order to protect this city, in order to protect the people we love, I am willing to give everything!"
