I walk sideways in the game world

Chapter 218: Breaking the Ambush and Turning the Tide of War

"Xiaoyao, be careful!" The leader of the righteous alliance roared and wanted to go forward to help, but he was entangled by several evil minions and could not escape.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Ren Xiaoyao's ears were filled with the sharp whistling of a blade breaking through the air. He could even feel the sharp wind blowing through his hair, and the breath of death enveloped his heart.

At the critical moment, Ren Xiaoyao's body reacted instinctively. He misstepped, turning slightly to the side, barely avoiding the fatal blow. The scimitar slashed past his nose, the sharp blade leaving a bloody streak on his face.

"That was a close call!" Ren Xiaoyao cried in his heart. Before he could stand firm, the Shadow Protector had already rushed forward, and his scimitar turned into black lightning that enveloped him.

"Xiaoyao, there's something wrong with their attack formation!" Xia Lin's voice came from behind. While treating the wound of the leader of the righteous alliance, she was paying attention to the battle situation, her clear eyes full of worry.

Ren Xiaoyao heard this and, while fending off the Shadow Guardian's attacks, he observed the movements of the surrounding demon minions. As Xia Lin had said, these minions' attacks seemed chaotic, but they nonetheless followed a certain pattern. Their positioning, attack rhythm, and even their movements held hidden meanings.

"So that's it!" A gleam of light flashed in Ren Xiaoyao's eyes. He gradually saw through the attack formation of these demon minions and immediately had a plan in his mind.

Seeing Ren Xiaoyao dodging, the Shadow Guardian thought he had forced him into a panic, and he couldn't help but feel proud. He wielded the scimitar even more fiercely, and each move was ruthless and deadly, trying to force Ren Xiaoyao into a desperate situation.

Seeing this, the Scorpion Witch also coordinated with the Shadow Protector's attack, constantly harassing him from the side, and poisonous needles shot at Ren Xiaoyao like raindrops, blocking all his retreat routes.

"Hmph, a mere trifle!" A sneer appeared on Ren Xiaoyao's lips. He had seen through the opponent's attack pattern, so he could naturally deal with it with greater ease.

Ren Xiaoyao dodged the attacks while searching for opportunities to counterattack. He was like a nimble fish, weaving freely amidst the flashes of swords and sabers, avoiding the enemy's attacks with every move, while secretly accumulating strength, waiting for the perfect moment to strike back.

Seeing that Ren Xiaoyao hadn't been taken down yet, the Shadow Guardian and the Scorpion Witch couldn't help but feel anxious. They increased the intensity of their attacks and their moves became more violent, hoping to get rid of Ren Xiaoyao as soon as possible.

However, what they didn't notice was that Ren Xiaoyao's eyes had become increasingly calm, and the sneer at the corner of his mouth was becoming more and more obvious, as if a huge storm was brewing...

"It's time!" Ren Xiaoyao said in his heart, a gleam in his eyes, and he moved...

Seeing his attack faltering, the Shadow Guardian grew increasingly impatient. He roared, and the scimitar in his hand glowed with a powerful black light, transforming into a streak of black light, aiming straight for Ren Xiaoyao's throat. The Scorpion Witch matched his attack, her delicate hands tracing eerie arcs through the air. Dozens of poisonous needles shot towards Ren Xiaoyao like celestial scatterings, blocking all his escape routes.

"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin shouted anxiously, but she was entangled by several demon minions and could not come to the rescue in time.

Facing this violent onslaught, Ren Xiaoyao remained remarkably calm. The sneer on his face grew more pronounced, and his eyes gleamed with a glimmer of insight. Just before the black streak was about to strike him, Ren Xiaoyao's body suddenly moved.

He didn't choose to take the attack head-on or dodge it, but instead, he flashed his body and passed through the gap in the black silk at an incredible angle. At the same time, he stepped lightly, and his figure shuttled between the poison needles like a ghost, and not a single poison needle could touch the corner of his clothes.

The Shadow Guardian and the Scorpion Witch were stunned upon seeing this. They had never witnessed such uncanny agility, the ability to move effortlessly through such a dense attack without a scratch. Before they could react, Ren Xiaoyao had already loomed over them.

"You've been fooled!" A sneer appeared on Ren Xiaoyao's lips, and a gleam in his eyes flashed.

"What?!" The Shadow Protector and the Scorpion Witch were shocked. Before they could understand what this sentence meant, they felt an overwhelming force coming towards them.

"Boom! Boom!"

With two muffled thuds, the Shadow Protector and the Scorpion Witch flew backwards like kites with broken strings, falling heavily several feet away, blood spurting from their mouths.

"How...how is this possible?!" The Shadow Guardian struggled to stand up, but found that his blood and qi were surging, and he couldn't move at all. He looked at Ren Xiaoyao in disbelief, his eyes filled with horror and fear.

"I told you, you've been fooled." Ren Xiaoyao looked at them coldly and said slowly, "Although your attack formation is sophisticated, it is not impenetrable. I have long seen through your flaws and have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike back."

"You... who are you?!" The Scorpion Witch asked in a trembling voice, covering her chest.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is..." Ren Xiaoyao swept his eyes across the battlefield and said in a deep voice, "Your conspiracy ends here!"

He turned around, looked at the righteous people who were fighting hard with the evil minions, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, follow me to break out from the southeast, that's their weak point!"

Upon hearing this, the righteous sect members were all stunned. The southeast direction seemed to be the most heavily defended area by the demonic sect minions. Why did Ren Xiaoyao allow them to break out from there?

"Don't hesitate, believe me!" Ren Xiaoyao's tone was firm and unquestionable.

Although the Righteous Path leader was puzzled, he couldn't care less at this moment. He took a deep breath and shouted, "All Righteous Path disciples, listen to my order! Follow the Free and Easy Alliance leader and break out from the southeast! Fight your way out!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

When the Righteous Path heard the orders from Ren Xiaoyao and the Righteous Path leader, although they still had some doubts in their hearts, they still carried out the orders without hesitation. They gathered behind Ren Xiaoyao and launched a fierce charge towards the southeast...

"What on earth is this brat planning?" The Blood Demon Cult leader, who had been observing the situation coldly, frowned slightly as he looked at the direction Ren Xiaoyao was leading the others. Under Ren Xiaoyao's leadership, the righteous sect charged forward like a sharp knife, fiercely stabbing southeast. To their surprise, the previously densely packed demonic minions along the way seemed to have received some kind of pre-emptive instruction and dodged their attack.

"Leader Xiaoyao is truly a genius! We have truly found the flaw in the evil path!" A disciple of the righteous path shouted excitedly, his original anxiety and fear swept away, replaced by hope and fighting spirit.

"Everyone, don't let your guard down. Stay focused and fight quickly!" Ren Xiaoyao shouted as he slashed at the charging demon minions with his sword. He knew this was only temporary; the real test was yet to come.

At this moment, a green sword light streaked across the sky like lightning, accompanied by bursts of crisp sword sounds, and several demon minions screamed and fell to the ground.

"Qingfeng Swordsman!" Everyone was delighted when they saw the familiar figure.

Although the Qingfeng swordsman was seriously injured, his sword energy was still overwhelming. After he joined the battle, the offensive of the righteous side became more fierce, and the minions of the evil side were defeated one after another.

"Damn it! How on earth did this guy see through my plan?" The Shadow Guardian watched the scene before him, gritting his teeth in anger. He had carefully planned an ambush, thinking it was foolproof, but he hadn't expected it to be easily resolved by Ren Xiaoyao.

"Now is not the time to assign responsibilities. Let's get rid of these troublesome guys first!" The Scorpion Witch said coldly, with a vicious light flashing in her eyes.

"You don't have to do anything, I'll do it myself!"

A voice filled with majesty and anger came from afar, and a blood-red figure appeared like a ghost above the battlefield. He was wearing a blood-red robe, his face was as handsome as a jade, but between his brows was a chilling murderous aura.

"The Blood Demon Cult Leader!"

When they saw the person coming, everyone in the righteous sect felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

The Blood Demon Cult Leader glanced coldly at the battlefield before finally fixing his gaze on Ren Xiaoyao. A cruel sneer played on his lips, "Are you Ren Xiaoyao? How dare you ruin my plans? Today, I'll show you how powerful I am!"

After saying this, he flashed and turned into a blood-red lightning, rushing towards Ren Xiaoyao and the others. The powerful pressure came like a mountain, making everyone's heart tremble.

"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin shouted anxiously, but she was entangled by several masters of magic and could not escape.

"Hmph, you ants think you can stop me?" The Blood Demon Sect Leader snorted coldly, murderous intent surging in his eyes.

A great battle was about to break out... The blood-red figure, like a demon crawling out of the Netherworld, brought a suffocating sense of oppression, fiercely slamming into the originally high morale of Ren Xiaoyao and the others. Everyone felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on their hearts, and their breathing became rapid.

"Xiaoyao, be careful!" There was a tremor in the old voice of the leader of the righteous path. He knew that this battle would determine the fate of the righteous path.

Ren Xiaoyao said nothing, but took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the sword. He could sense the terrifying, heart-pounding power emanating from the Blood Demon Cult Leader, as if it was about to devour the entire world.

"You're overestimating yourself!" A trace of contempt flashed in the Blood Demon Cult Leader's scarlet eyes. He formed his five fingers into claws and grabbed Ren Xiaoyao's head. Blood-colored Qi surged towards Ren Xiaoyao like a torrent, carrying a sickening smell of blood.

"Brother Xiaoyao, get out of the way!" Xia Lin exclaimed, but she was tightly entangled by the Scorpion Witch and could not go forward to help.

At the critical moment, Ren Xiaoyao's figure suddenly became blurred, and the Blood Demon Leader's grab was empty!

"Hmm?" The Blood Demon Cult leader frowned. He didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary young man in front of him could actually dodge his lightning-fast attack.

"Old Blood Demon, your opponent is me!" The Qingfeng Swordsman seized the opportunity, his body was as fast as lightning, and the long sword in his hand turned into a green lightning, piercing the back of the Blood Demon Leader.

"A mere trifle!" The Blood Demon Cult leader snorted coldly, without even turning his head, he slapped out with his backhand.

boom!

With a loud bang, the Qingfeng swordsman was struck by lightning, flying backwards with blood spurting out of his mouth.

"Qingfeng!" The righteous people were shocked and rushed forward to catch the Qingfeng swordsman.

"You trash, you think you can hurt me?" The Blood Demon Cult leader stood proudly in the air, his eyes full of disdain.

"Demon, stop being so arrogant!" At this moment, a cold voice sounded, and Xia Lin's body was shining brightly. Green runes flew out of her body and turned into a huge light curtain, trapping the Scorpion Witch and others in it.

"What is this?!" The Scorpion Witch's face changed drastically. She felt like she was trapped in a quagmire, and her movements became extremely slow.

"A trapped beast's fight!" The Blood Demon Cult Leader glanced at Xia Lin coldly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes. "Wait until I've dealt with this brat, then I'll deal with you!"

After saying that, he rushed towards Ren Xiaoyao again. This time, his speed was faster and his strength was stronger, as if he wanted to tear Ren Xiaoyao apart completely!

Facing this devastating blow, Ren Xiaoyao seemed to have expected it. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Finally, it's here..." He slowly raised his right hand, put his index and middle fingers together, pointed at the Blood Demon Cult Leader's heart, and whispered a word: "Break!"
