I am destroying the protagonist in the fantasy world!

Chapter 19: Help in desperate situation, trapped beast fights hard

"Young Master, it's bad. Elder Qin...he's bringing people to kill us!" The servant's frightened words made Lei Yi's heart sink instantly.

Discovered so quickly? Lei Yi frowned, seemingly having underestimated Elder Qin's cunning. He forced himself to calm down and quickly asked, "How many are they? Which direction are they coming from?"

"Master, there are about twenty or thirty people, all armed, coming here aggressively, as if... as if they want to kill you!" The servant's voice trembled with fear.

"Damn it!" Lei Yi cursed inwardly, knowing it was too late to escape. He quickly glanced around the room, grabbed a longsword, and ordered his servant, "Hurry, go to the secret passage and inform the master. Tell him that I've been besieged in Qingfeng Pavilion by Elder Qin's men!"

The servant didn't dare to delay and hurriedly ran to the entrance of the secret passage. Lei Yi took a deep breath, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes, he pushed open the window, jumped, and jumped onto the roof.

Qingfeng Pavilion is a branch of the Lei family. Its surroundings are quiet and peaceful, but this also makes it vulnerable to being surrounded by the enemy. Lei Yi climbs up and down walls, trying to find a way out, but Elder Qin is clearly well prepared, having already sent people to surround Qingfeng Pavilion.

"Lei Yi, you can't escape! If you surrender obediently, you may suffer less physical pain!" Elder Qin's cold voice came from below, his tone full of pride and murderous intent.

Lei Yi sneered and ignored him. He brandished his sword and, with his agility, shuttled between the enemies, taking a life with every move.

But two fists are no match for four hands, and a strong man cannot stand up to a large number of people. Lei Yi gradually felt his strength was exhausted, and the wounds on his body were increasing. He knew that if he didn't find a way to break out, he might really die here today.

Just as Lei Yi was in dire straits, the clear sound of bells suddenly rang out from afar, accompanied by a fragrant breeze. A cold voice echoed in his ears: "Young Master Lei, hold on! I'm here to help you!" The crisp ringing sounded like the sound of nature. Lei Yi looked up and saw a red figure flit by like a startled wild goose, landing lightly beside him. It was Dongfang Liuli, dressed in a fiery red dress, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and she held a soft sword with a cold and chilling light.

"Eastern girl!" Lei Yi was delighted, as if he had grasped the last straw.

Dongfang Liuli nodded briefly, saying nothing more. She turned and faced the oncoming enemies. Her figure was ethereal, like a red cloud, weaving through the flashing swords and shadows. Each strike was swift and ruthless, each one deadly. The enemies couldn't get close, and several felled in the blink of an eye.

"What amazing Kung Fu!" Lei Yi admired in his heart. Dongfang Liuli's martial arts were far superior to his own. It seemed that the rumors that she learned from a hidden master were true.

With Dongfang Liuli's participation, the tide of battle turned instantly. The two stood back to back, working in perfect harmony, one with a sharp sword technique and the other with a graceful body movement, pushing the enemy back step by step.

Elder Qin's face darkened terribly upon seeing this. He had originally thought victory was certain, but he hadn't expected Dongfang Liuli to show up mid-sentence. He knew Dongfang Liuli was formidable, and he was no match for her. However, if he let her rescue Lei Yi, he wouldn't be able to explain himself to the Patriarch.

"Dongfang Liuli, are you sure you want to get involved?" Elder Qin shouted angrily, "This kid is a traitor to our Lei family. If you protect him, aren't you afraid of offending the Lei family?"

Dongfang Liuli sneered, flicking her wrist. A flash of sword light swept across like a streak of silk, slaying an enemy who attempted a sneak attack. "Elder Qin, I have my own judgment on right and wrong. It's not your place to dictate!" A cold glint flashed in her beautiful eyes. "Today, I will take Young Master Lei away. I see who dares to stop me!"

Elder Qin was trembling with anger. He knew Dongfang Liuli would keep her word. If he didn't fight hard today, she might succeed. A fierce look flashed in his eyes. He waved his hand fiercely and ordered everyone around him, "Kill them! Even if it means risking your life today, you must keep these two here!"

Upon receiving the order, the remaining dozen or so men rushed forward like mad dogs, their swords and knives drawn, each strike vicious, determined to put Lei Yi and Dongfang Liuli to death. Blades flashed, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and a life-and-death struggle began...

The enemy's attacks surged like a tide, wave after wave. Lei Yi and Dongfang Liuli stood back to back, desperately resisting. Dongfang Liuli's swordsmanship was ethereal and graceful, like a fleeting reflection of a beautiful bird, and every strike left a trail of blood. Lei Yi's moves weren't as refined, but they were more ruthless and decisive, each strike targeting the enemy's vital points.

However, two fists are no match for four, especially when the enemy is outnumbered and each one a desperate savior. During the fierce battle, a flash of sword light slashed Lei Yi's left arm, instantly drawing blood. Dongfang Liuli's heart tightened upon seeing this, and his sword thrusts intensified, forcing back several enemies. However, he himself was swept by a strong gust of wind, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

"Miss Dongfang, are you okay?" Lei Yi was extremely anxious. He knew that if they couldn't escape today, both he and Dongfang Liuli would die here.

Dongfang Liuli endured the pain and shook her head at him: "I'm fine, Master Lei, can you still hold on?"

Lei Yi gritted his teeth, his eyes determined: "Of course! Even if I die today, I will fight my way out!"

Before he could finish his words, Elder Qin suddenly burst from the crowd, his sword pointed directly at Dongfang Liuli, clearly intent on eliminating this greatest threat first. Dongfang Liuli was already prepared, dodging the fatal blow with a quick move. However, Elder Qin's attacks followed her like a shadow, each one ruthless and forcing her to retreat repeatedly.

Lei Yi saw this and knew something was wrong. He wanted to go forward to help, but was entangled by several enemies. Seeing Dongfang Liuli trapped in a tough fight, he was extremely anxious, but he was powerless to do anything.

"Miss Dongfang, be careful!" Lei Yi shouted, but saw Elder Qin seize a flaw in Dongfang Liuli and hit her chest hard with a palm.

Dongfang Liuli groaned, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily several feet away.

"Miss Dongfang!" Lei Yi's eyes were bloodshot as he roared in anger. He desperately broke through the enemy's encirclement, rushed to Dongfang Liuli's side, and helped her up.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Dongfang Liuli's face was as pale as paper, and blood kept oozing from the corner of her mouth. It was obvious that she had suffered severe internal injuries. She raised her hand with difficulty, wanting to wipe the blood off Lei Yi's face, but it fell down weakly.

"It's all my fault that you got involved. I'm sorry..." Lei Yi's heart was filled with guilt and self-blame. If it hadn't been for saving him, Dongfang Liuli wouldn't have been seriously injured.

Dongfang Liuli shook her head weakly and said in a weak voice: "No... It's okay... Go quickly... I... I will stop them..."

Lei Yi looked at her resolute eyes, his heart trembling, an inexplicable power surging in his body. He suddenly realized that he could no longer sit and wait for death, and he could not let Dongfang Liuli's sacrifice be in vain!

Lei Yi's eyes swept around, his mind racing with countermeasures. Suddenly, his gaze fell on a pile of rocks not far away, and an idea suddenly occurred to him... A flicker of determination flashed in Lei Yi's eyes. He gently put Dongfang Liuli down and said, "Miss Dongfang, hold on a little longer. I've got a solution!"

Before Dongfang Liuli could respond, Lei Yi had already risen and rushed towards the pile of rocks. He quickly moved the stones, piling them into a simple defensive structure, while also setting several traps using the terrain. After completing all this, Lei Yi rushed back to Dongfang Liuli, helped her up, and ran towards the valley.

"Chase! Don't let them get away!" Elder Qin gave an order and led the remaining enemies in hot pursuit.

Lei Yi and Dongfang Liuli ran furiously along the rugged mountain road, one in front and one behind. Lei Yi looked back from time to time to observe the enemy's situation, only to see that the pursuers had fallen into the trap and were screaming in pain.

"Young Master Lei, your plan was successful!" Seeing this, Dongfang Liuli felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"Now is not the time to be happy. We must get rid of them as soon as possible!" Lei Yi's face was solemn. He knew that these traps could only delay for a while. Elder Qin's strength was unfathomable and he would soon be able to see through his tricks.

The two continued to flee, the cries of killing coming closer and closer behind them. It was obvious that Elder Qin had already led his men to catch up. Lei Yi was extremely anxious. He knew that this was not a solution and he had to find a safe place to hide.

"There is a foggy valley ahead, let's go in!" Lei Yi pointed to a foggy valley ahead and said to Dongfang Liuli.

Misty Valley, with its precipitous terrain and perpetually shrouded in thick fog, has extremely low visibility and is a well-known dangerous spot in the area. Lei Yi also learned about this place from the original owner's memories and hopes to use the Misty Valley's geographical advantages to temporarily escape the enemy's pursuit.

Dongfang Liuli followed Lei Yi closely without any hesitation, and the two of them plunged into the misty valley.

The fog was so thick that it was pitch dark. Lei Yi and Dongfang Liuli cautiously groped their way forward. It was so quiet that only the sound of each other's heavy breathing could be heard.

"Miss Dongfang, how are you?" Lei Yi asked in a low voice, his tone full of worry.

"I'm fine..." Dongfang Liuli's voice was a little weak, "It's just that something seems a little unusual in this misty valley..."

Lei Yi's heart trembled, he gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, and looked around vigilantly.

"Be careful!" Dongfang Liuli suddenly exclaimed and pulled Lei Yi to dodge quickly.

A dark shadow passed by them, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.

"What is that?" Lei Yi asked in shock.

Dongfang Liuli's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't know, but I'm afraid it's not that simple in this Misty Valley..."

Before he finished speaking, a rustling sound suddenly came from the front, as if something was approaching...
