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

The sword in Xiao Yichen's hand flashed with cold light, and the sword energy was like a rainbow, knocking down the attacking hidden weapons one by one. Chu Mengmeng was not to be outdone, and the spiritual power surged from her fingertips, turning into beams of light, forcing back the besieged men in black. The two cooperated tacitly, and cut a bloody path in the sword light and shadow. However, the number of enemies was too large, one wave after another, as if endless.

"Mengmeng, we have to break out!" Xiao Yichen shouted anxiously while resisting the attack.

Chu Mengmeng understood what he meant, and the two of them stopped fighting and concentrated their strength to break out of the weak point of the encirclement. Finally, after paying a certain price, they successfully got rid of the pursuit of the men in black and escaped into the depths of the dense forest.

"Who are those people? Why are they chasing us?" Chu Mengmeng asked breathlessly, her face a little pale.

Xiao Yichen frowned and said in a deep voice: "If I guess correctly, they should be Lin Yuxin's people."

"Lin Yuxin?" Chu Mengmeng was shocked. "How could she know our whereabouts? Could it be..."

A terrible thought came to Chu Mengmeng's mind, and her face suddenly turned ugly. They had been cautious along the way, even hiding their identities very well. How could Lin Yuxin suddenly attack them? Unless their actions had been exposed long ago, and they knew nothing about it!

Xiao Yichen clenched his fists, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "It seems that we underestimated Lin Yuxin and overestimated ourselves."

In the next few days, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were like frightened birds, hiding here and there, not daring to relax at all. However, no matter how careful they were, they could always feel that there was a pair of invisible eyes watching their every move in secret, leaving them nowhere to hide.

"Yi Chen, I feel like we are prey trapped in a spider web. No matter how hard we struggle, we can't escape the other party's control." Chu Mengmeng looked solemn, with a hint of despair in her tone.

Xiao Yichen patted her shoulder gently and comforted her: "Don't worry, we won't sit and wait for death."

However, he felt powerless. They originally thought that they could make a difference in this alien world with the advantage of being a time traveler, but reality dealt them a heavy blow. The power behind Lin Yuxin was far more powerful than they had imagined. They were like being controlled by an invisible hand, and every step they took was full of danger.

At this moment, a mysterious figure quietly appeared in front of them...

The mysterious man was wearing a black cloak, his face could not be seen clearly, and his voice was low and hoarse: "Don't panic, I mean no harm."

Xiao Yichen asked vigilantly: "Who are you? Why are you helping us?"

The mysterious man chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Lin Yuxin's ambition is obvious. Like you, I don't want to see her succeed."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts. They didn't know the person in front of them, why did he understand their situation so well and even take the risk to help them?

"I know you have doubts in your hearts, but I can assure you that Lin Yuxin and I are not on the same side." The mysterious man paused and continued, "Your situation is very dangerous now. Continuing to clash head-on with Lin Yuxin is undoubtedly like hitting a rock with an egg. It is better to avoid her first, accumulate strength, and wait until the time is right before making plans."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were not impulsive people, they understood that what the mysterious man said was not without reason. When the enemy was strong and we were weak, a head-on confrontation would only accelerate their demise. Only by preserving their strength and developing slowly could they finally defeat the strong enemy.

After careful consideration, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen decided to follow the advice of the mysterious man, temporarily give up the head-on conflict with Lin Yuxin, and instead look for new allies and resources.

"What should we do?" Xiao Yichen asked.

The mysterious man handed them a jade pendant with strange patterns engraved on it: "Take this jade pendant and go to Yunmengze in the south. You may find the answers you want there."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen took the jade pendant and nodded solemnly. They knew that this was a road full of thorns, but for the ultimate victory, they had to go on bravely.

After bidding farewell to the mysterious man, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen set out on the journey to Yunmengze. They were cautious along the way, avoiding Lin Yuxin's eyes, and secretly looking for like-minded partners. However, Lin Yuxin's influence far exceeded their imagination. Many forces avoided them under her pressure, and some even took advantage of their misfortunes to please Lin Yuxin.

After hitting a wall again and again, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen's mood fell to the bottom. Are they really going to bow to fate and watch Lin Yuxin do whatever she wants?

 Chu Xiao Chuan: A sudden change

After running around for several days, they were turned away repeatedly. The families that once welcomed them with a smile now avoided them like snakes and scorpions, and some even secretly tripped them up in order to please Lin Yuxin. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen seemed to be trapped in an invisible giant net. The more they struggled, the tighter the net became.

"Could it be that... we really can't defeat her?" Chu Mengmeng sat weakly by the window of the inn, looking at the gloomy sky outside, her tone full of confusion and frustration.

Xiao Yichen remained silent, holding the teacup tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white. He knew that Lin Yuxin's power had penetrated every aspect of the world, and it was like hitting a rock with an egg to fight against her. However, when he thought of Lin Yuxin's smug face and her malice towards Chu Mengmeng, he couldn't bear to give up.

Just when the two were in despair, the door of the inn was gently pushed open, and a figure in a black cloak walked in. He walked straight to the table of Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen, and said in a low voice with a hint of hoarseness: "I know what you are looking for, I can help you."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen raised their heads abruptly, staring at the mysterious man in front of them with vigilance. They had experienced too many betrayals and deceptions, and they no longer dared to trust anyone easily.

"Who are you? Why are you helping us?" Xiao Yichen asked coldly.

The mysterious man did not answer their questions directly, but slowly took off his cloak, revealing a handsome face. He smiled slightly, with a hint of bitterness in his tone: "My name is Lin Feng, and I am Lin Yuxin's brother."

"What?!" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were stunned. They never thought that the mysterious man in front of them was actually Lin Yuxin's brother!

"I know this is hard to believe, but I am here to help you." Lin Feng took a deep breath and continued, "I have seen everything Lin Yuxin has done over the years. She has completely lost herself. If she continues like this, she will only be destroyed! I can't watch her make mistakes, and I can't let her hurt you."

Although the appearance of Lin Feng brought them a glimmer of hope, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen also knew clearly that this was just the beginning and they still had a long way to go. Lin Yuxin, the huge stumbling block, always stood in front of them.

Lin Feng's appearance undoubtedly opened a new door for Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen. The three of them lit a dim oil lamp in the room of the inn and had a long conversation.

"My sister... has been very ambitious and resourceful since she was a child." Lin Feng's voice was low and hoarse, as if he was filled with deep helplessness and guilt. "Since she was reborn, she has become even more paranoid and crazy. I tried to persuade her, but she wouldn't listen..."

"What exactly does she want to do?" Chu Mengmeng couldn't help but ask, her eyes full of confusion and worry.

Lin Feng was silent for a moment, as if he was organizing his words, and then he slowly spoke: "She wants to get everything in this world, including... you, Miss Chu."

Chu Mengmeng's heart trembled. She had always known that Lin Yuxin held a grudge against her, but she never expected that she actually wanted to get everything from her.

"Why did she do this?" Xiao Yichen's tone was full of chill.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's because of jealousy, maybe it's because of unwillingness... In short, she has gone crazy."

"Why do you want to help us?" Chu Mengmeng looked straight into Lin Feng's eyes, trying to find the answer from him.

A trace of pain flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. He avoided Chu Mengmeng's gaze and whispered, "I don't want to see her continue to make mistakes, and I don't want to see her hurt you. You are good people and should not be implicated by her."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at each other. They saw the sincerity in Lin Feng's eyes, and also felt his helplessness and pain. Maybe they could really trust him.

"What do you want us to do?" Xiao Yichen asked.

Lin Feng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I know you are looking for allies. I can help you contact some families, but most of them have been bribed by my sister. It is not easy to convince them."

"It's okay, we can give it a try." Chu Mengmeng clenched her fists, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

Although the appearance of this mysterious figure brought them a glimmer of hope, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen also knew clearly that this was just the beginning and they still had a long way to go. Lin Yuxin, this huge stumbling block, always stood in front of them.
