Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 824

Chapter 824 824: Opportunity Amidst Chaos!

Tang Li Xue deliberately slowed down her sprinting speed a bit when she almost reached the treasure room to create an illusion as if she had started running out of strength.

The scary woman who was madly chasing Tang Li Xue from behind got closer to Tang Li Xue even more rapidly than before!

The scary woman condensed a dozen black cones from her black energy and controlled them skillfully to attack Tang Li Xue from behind again for the umpteen times!

But Tang Li Xue already arrived at the intersection, so she immediately ran to the left side!

The dozen black cones controlled by the scary woman also turned to the left to chase after Tang Li Xue!

'It is now~!' Tang Li Xue thought as she rolled over toward the wall.

The dozen black cones were actually flying toward the old man with a long beard who sat cross-legged in front of the double bronze gates!

Just as those dozen black cones almost reached the old man, the time seemed to slow down as the old man slowly opened his eyes!

Different from the scary woman who had a pair of terrifying hollow black eyes, the old man had a pair of deep crimson eyes as if his eyes were dyed with his own blood!

CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~!

Those dozen black cones were suddenly cut into tiny pieces, and they dispersed back into black energy.

The old man stood up steadily while holding his Heaven Edge Sword tightly in his hand.

Even with her [Wind God's Eyes], Tang Li Xue only managed to see the silvery light flash extremely swiftly when the old man swung his Heaven Edge Sword to cut those dozen black cones.

It was not because [Wind God's Eyes] could not see the old man's sword movements, but because even with Tang Li Xue's current unimaginable speed, her mind was still incapable of seeing through and processing the old man's sword movements.

Right at this time, the scary woman in the fancy red dress also turned at the intersection, so there were three people... or rather three creatures to be more exact that were in front of the treasure room.

Tang Li Xue, scary woman in the fancy red dress, and the old man holding his Heaven Edge Sword...

Tang Li Xue who currently stood between the scary woman and the old man felt the most suffocated by their terrifyingly powerful aura.

Cold sweat soaked Tang Li Xue's forehead and back as she felt really nervous and fearful.

Tang Li Xue was actually secretly gambling at this moment...

She was gambling that the scary woman in the fancy red dress and the old man with Heaven Edge Sword were not comrades-in-arms.

Well, if they were on the same side, and they began to work together to fight against her instead, then Tang Li Xue could only give up and activate her [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy to escape from them.

Who knew that the scary woman in the fancy red dress completely ignored the old man and rushed swiftly toward Tang Li Xue?!

"Damn it~! This rotten smelly woman still focuses on me even at a time like this?!" Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she hastily used [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] plus [Breezing Step] to keep her distance from the scary woman.

Thus both Tang Li Xue and the scary woman moved swiftly closer toward the old man and the double bronze gates instead!

The old man muttered stutteredly: "My task... Guarding the room... Intruders... Die~!"

The old man swung the Heaven Edge Sword in his grasp once again!

Tang Li Xue could only see silver light flickering rapidly. She did not even have any time to react as the sword's energy wave struck her furry body!

BAAAAANG~!

Thankfully, Tang Li Xue had already expected an incident like this would happen since the very start, so she had secretly taken out the [Vajra Protection Amulet] from her space pouch when she turned at the intersection just now!

A transparent barrier emerged to protect Tang Li Xue's whole body and the extremely powerful sword's energy wave struck the transparent barrier instead!

The [Vajra Protection Amulet]'s barrier managed to block the extremely powerful sword's energy wave, but Tang Li Xue's furry body was still thrown off uncontrollably and crashed onto the wall behind her heavily!

The wall was protected with a solid protective formation, so it was still completely unscathed, but Tang Li Xue felt as if all the bones in her body were shattered because of the heavy collision with the wall.
