Xia Yu scratched his cheek with his index finger, but he didn't feel anything. He'd rather go to a haunted house than walk through a dark cave.

"I share the same thought as Li: unless there really are ghosts, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"Impressive, impressive! I didn't expect you guys to be so bold."

Yamazaki remarked that he had wanted to encourage the scared people, but all three of them turned out to be quite brave.

"Wow!!!"

Suddenly, a white sheet with a ghost face printed on it darted out from the corner, making a ghostly sound.

The sudden scene startled the three people who were moving forward, but all three remained calm, and none of them showed any fear.

"Woooooooo..."

The white sheet was still waving its arms and screaming, but the three of them just watched the other's performance quietly.

Terada Yoshiyuki: "..."

Seeing that no one gave him the reaction he wanted, Terada Yoshiyuki felt like a fool for still putting on an act.

"Seriously, aren't you scared?"

Terada Yoshiyuki, somewhat dejected, tore off the white cloth draped over his body and looked helplessly at the three students in front of him who were anything but cute.

"Wow, that scared me to death."

Xia Yu decided to give the teacher some face and calmly pretended to be frightened.

Terada Yoshiyuki: "..."

"Honestly, it's still more fun to scare Kinomoto."

Terada Yoshiyuki, holding a frightening white cloth, stepped aside to make way: "But I'm only the first hurdle. There are even scarier ones to come, so be careful."

"Okay, goodbye teacher."

After saying goodbye to their teacher, the trio continued on their way. As they walked, Yamazaki suddenly said, "I was really a little startled just now. I didn't react for a moment. Li and Xia, you two are amazing. You both looked so calm."

"It's just a little trick to scare people, nothing to be afraid of."

"Of course, after all, who am I? There's no one in this world who can scare me!"

"Haha, that's definitely your style of answer."

Yamazaki walked ahead, laughing and talking, but as he walked, his figure suddenly became illusory.

The next second, the lamp suddenly fell to the ground, and the candle went out, and the only source of light disappeared.

"Yamazaki!"

The moment Yamazaki disappeared, Li Xiaolang hurriedly reached out to grab him, but he couldn't grab anything. It was as if Yamazaki, who had always been with them, was just a phantom, and now that the phantom's time was up, it had vanished.

"Disappeared?"

Xia Yu looked around in confusion, then extended his index finger and made a "fluorescent flash," illuminating the cave with a white light. However, Yamazaki's figure had indeed disappeared, since the lamp that had fallen to the ground could not be faked.

"Sure enough, something's strange here. Let's go find it..."

Li Xiaolang carefully sensed it and indeed felt the strange aura he had sensed the night before. Just as he suggested going to find Xiaoying, the light in the cave suddenly dimmed.

"!"

Li Xiaolang suddenly turned his head, and Xia Yu, who had just been next to him, had also disappeared without any warning.

"Damn it, what is this thing?!"

Li Xiaolang looked anxious. Xia Yu, who possessed magic just like him, could also disappear, which meant that he could also disappear on the spot at any time.

No, we absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to die!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaolang picked up the candle on the ground, lit it with the Flame Command Talisman for lighting, and then strode towards the interior of the cave.

He was going to find Sakura to determine if the Clow Cards were behind the trouble.

Meanwhile, inside the cave.

At the wooden bridge.

Sakura stared blankly at the wooden bridge engulfed in flames, completely at a loss.

Just now, Tomoyo, who left with her, suddenly disappeared on the wooden bridge, and the candle she was holding fell onto the bridge and set it on fire.

Besides Tomoyo, Chiharu and the others who had entered before them also disappeared before her eyes, vanishing without a trace.

Suddenly finding herself all alone, Sakura completely lost her composure; her hands and feet were ice-cold, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.

Suddenly, she heard hurried footsteps.

Sensing that someone else was still there, Sakura hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound. She hadn't run far when she saw Li Xiaolang running over anxiously as well.

Without thinking, Sakura rushed forward: "Tomoyo, and everyone else..."

"They've all disappeared, right?"

Upon hearing this, Sakura was on the verge of tears and quickly nodded.

"My teammates Yamazaki and Xia Yu have also disappeared." Seeing Sakura's panic, Li Xiaolang was equally anxious, but his expression remained calm.

Because he knew that in this situation, he had to remain calm, otherwise two equally panicked people would only become more flustered.

"Was it a ghost? Did a ghost make Tomoyo and the others disappear?"

"no!"

"But……"

"calm down!"

Li Xiaolang placed his hands on Xiaoying's shoulders and said seriously, "If you calm down, you should be able to feel it."

Seeing Li Xiaolang's resolute expression, Xiaoying sniffed, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, placed her hands on her chest, closed her eyes, and sensed the situation.

She couldn't panic; now it was just her and Li left!

As her mind calmed down, Sakura's senses gradually became clearer, and in the next instant, she felt a familiar magical aura.

"It's the aura of the Clow Cards!"

Even though she knew it wasn't a ghost, but rather the Clow Cards causing trouble, Sakura still felt flustered and sobbed softly, feeling lonely and helpless as if they were her constant companions.

"Give."

Suddenly, a handkerchief appeared in front of her. Looking up, she saw that it was Li Xiaolang offering her the handkerchief.

"Thanks……"

"Stop crying."

"Well, I'm sorry."

Sakura wiped away her tears with a handkerchief. Her panicked mood subsided considerably with Li Xiaolang's words. She smiled slightly at Xiaolang with red eyes.

"You are so gentle."

"Well……"

Sakura's sudden remark made Syaoran blush again, and he could only turn his head away, pretending not to care: "I'm just afraid of seeing other people cry."

"But if the Clow Cards made everyone disappear, then where are the Clow Cards?" After stopping her sobbing, Sakura began to think.

"It's okay, I have a solution."

Li Xiaolang took out a pendant, flicked his wrist, and a faint light appeared, revealing the compass for finding the Clow Cards in his hand.

As Li Xiaolang chanted an incantation, the compass instantly shot out a beam of light, which pointed directly to the end of the cave.

"Near the small temple!"

"let's go!"

After putting away the compass, Li Xiaolang, holding a candle, led Sakura back into the cave.

Sensing the eerie atmosphere around them, Sakura couldn't help but ask, "What kind of card will it be?"

"I don't know, but we should go and take a look first."

Hearing Syaoran's calm words, Sakura couldn't help but feel a surge of power within her.

"By the way, can I ask you a question?"

"what?"

Why does Li want to collect Clow Cards?

To this question, the little wolf continued walking and calmly replied, "To prevent disaster from befalling the world."

Upon hearing this, Sakura couldn't help but say, "Clow Cards...when their seal is broken, disaster will follow."

Hearing Sakura say that, Syaoran turned his head and asked, "Did you hear that from Cerberus?"

"Ok!"

"The Li family has kept several magic books written by Kuro, one of which was written by Kuro himself."

Syaoran stopped and looked at Sakura intently, saying, "And there's a passage that says, 'When the seal on the Clow Cards is completely broken, disaster will befall the world... I pray from the bottom of my heart that the day of disaster will never come...'"

Seeing Syaoran's serious expression, Sakura couldn't help but feel a slight pang in her heart: "That disaster refers to..."
