Reincarnated As a Fox With System Chapter 653: Dumbfounded Tang Li Xue!

Chapter 653: Dumbfounded Tang Li Xue!

It did not take long for w.a.n.g Shan's luxurious carriage to reach his father's home since both w.a.n.g Shan's mansion and his father's manor were located at the center of Imperial City which was near the Imperial Palace.

Of course, w.a.n.g Shan's father's manor was much more luxurious and bigger than w.a.n.g Shan's mansion because he was the current Minister of Justice of this Dynasty.

When w.a.n.g Shan's luxurious carriage entered the extremely luxurious Minister of Justice's manor, Tang Li Xue secretly scanned the surrounding carefully with her [Extrasensory Perception].

'As I had expected, the guards here are much more powerful than w.a.n.g Shan's place. The strength of the guards here is actually not much weaker than the royal guards. I might not even be able to sneak into this manor easily with my [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment].' Tang Li Xue silently concluded in her mind.

Tang Li Xue glanced at the inscription carved on the manor's wall and found out it was actually quite similar to the inscription carved on the wall of the City Lord's mansion in the previous treasure game.

Suddenly, Tang Li Xue felt pressured as if she had entered a huge cage right at this moment.

If w.a.n.g Shan actually planned to catch and detain her in this Minister of Justice's manor instead, she might not really be able to escape from here!

Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm down as she thought: 'Another day, another gamble... Then so be it~! It is already too late for me to retreat anyway~! We will see who will win this game in the end~!'

Since she had rejected to take part in the plan of the two foxes yesterday, it meant Tang Li Xue had already decided to put all of her bet on w.a.n.g Shan.

Yes, Tang Li Xue bet that w.a.n.g Shan was fully infatuated with her beauty, and he would never do anything to trap or harm her.

At least, that should be much better than putting her trust in her two compet.i.tors in Tang Li Xue's opinion.

When Tang Li Xue was still thinking deeply, w.a.n.g Shan had already gotten off the luxurious carriage first, and he was immediately welcomed by the old butler, several servants, and several maids.

"Greetings to the third young master~!" The old butler, several guards, and several servants said while bowing their heads a bit politely.

w.a.n.g Shan stretched out his hand to Tang Li Xue and said: "Come on, Miss Tang~! I will escort you to meet my old man!"

Tang Li Xue covered her stunningly beautiful face with a white veil to not draw any unwanted attention, and she jumped down gracefully from the carriage without w.a.n.g Shan's help.

Both Little Loki and Yaya were still sitting lazily on her shoulders.

"Let's go, Brother w.a.n.g~!" Tang Li Xue nodded and replied to w.a.n.g Shan.

w.a.n.g Shan did not feel offended and still smiled happily at Tang Li Xue as he led her to his father's courtyard.

Tang Li Xue thought that w.a.n.g Shan's father should be quite old since w.a.n.g Shan as his third son was already a middle-aged man, but when she saw w.a.n.g Shan's father with her own eyes, she immediately realized that she had been wrong.

w.a.n.g Shan's father looked as if he was only in the middle of his twenties!

w.a.n.g Shan's father was currently sitting leisurely on the rattan chair while basking under the morning sun in his beautiful flower garden.

When w.a.n.g Shan and Tang Li Xue entered his courtyard, w.a.n.g Shan's father calmly sipped on his teacup while staring at both of them curiously.

At that instant, Tang Li Xue's [Extrasensory Perception] suddenly sensed a powerful divine sense that scanned her entire body.

Tang Li Xue's figure suddenly stiffened as her mind exclaimed in shock: 'A powerful Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator~!'

Tang Li Xue instantly understood why w.a.n.g Shan's father looked much younger than w.a.n.g Shan himself.

It was because the cultivation of w.a.n.g Shan's father was already very high, so his lifespan had increased by many times!

Compared to his father, w.a.n.g Shan could only be said as a waste with Qi Condensation Stage cultivation.

To be honest, Tang Li Xue was already extremely fl.u.s.tered in her heart. Even her body almost turned around and ran away at full speed in reflex.

Thankfully, Tang Li Xue resisted the urge to run away on time and still put a calm facade in front of w.a.n.g Shan's father.

w.a.n.g Shan's father ignored Tang Li Xue and smiled at w.a.n.g Shan instead while saying and laughing playfully: "Hey, my son, Shan'er, looks even more handsome today~! Ahahaha~!"

w.a.n.g Shan also laughed and replied: "Of course, I am handsome~! I am your son after all~! If I am ugly, then your head might be green, old man~! Ahahaha..."

w.a.n.g Shan's father playfully kicked w.a.n.g Shan's foot and scolded him: "You, d.a.m.n brat~! How dare you say something like that?! If your mom hear it, I bet she would beat your b.u.t.t until you cannot sit for a few days~!"

w.a.n.g Shan instantly jumped in fright and looked around vigilantly.

After making sure that his mother was not there right now, w.a.n.g Shan sighed in relief.

w.a.n.g Shan brought Tang Li Xue closer to his father and introduced them to each other: "Old man, this is my close friend, Miss Tang Xue. Miss Tang, this is my old man, w.a.n.g Tian."

Tang Li Xue politely bowed her head and greeted with a soft gentle voice: "Tang Xue pay respects to Minister w.a.n.g Tian."

Her trembling voice could no longer cover her nervousness and panic.

Even though she looked pitiful like a frightened rabbit right now, but w.a.n.g Tian did not intend to pay any attention to her.

w.a.n.g Tian asked w.a.n.g Shan with a caring tone instead: "Do you already have breakfast, Tian'er? If you are hungry, I will ask the servant to prepare it right now."

"No, no, no... I already had breakfast... I am full." w.a.n.g Shan replied while glancing worriedly at Tang Li Xue as if he was afraid that Tang Li Xue would cry because w.a.n.g Tian had completely ignored her.

w.a.n.g Shan quickly went on w.a.n.g Tian's back and started to give him a ma.s.sage while trying to persuade him: "Old man, can you give me some face? Miss Tang is so pitiful. She... She really needs our help! Can you help her, please? This will be the last time, okay?!"

w.a.n.g Tian rolled his eyes disdainfully and replied: "How many times have you already said this to me? You always say this will be the last time, but you keep coming to me and asking me to help your concubines!"

w.a.n.g Shan quickly denied this and shouted: "This time is really different than before. It is not about money, gold, releasing guilty relatives from jail, or something vulgar like that~!"

Tang Li Xue's pink lips puckered slightly when she heard w.a.n.g Shan's words.

'So, he had already brought many other girls to ask his father for help~! Sigh... So, that is the reason why his father treated me so coldly~! This d.a.m.n playboy~!' Tang Li Xue cursed w.a.n.g Shan in her heart.

But Tang Li Xue also secretly felt relieved as she thought: 'I thought this w.a.n.g Tian had already noticed my ident.i.ty as a fox using his divine sense. It seems I only think too much about it.'

"Oh? Really not any about those?" w.a.n.g Tian glanced suspiciously at Tang Li Xue.

w.a.n.g Shan quickly added with a persuasion tone: "Of course~! Uh, Miss Tang's parents are dying, so..."

"So, you want to ask me to bring Imperial Alchemist to treat them? Dream on~!" w.a.n.g Tian quickly interrupted with an annoyed tone.

Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head and denied it: "No, Minister w.a.n.g, a small person like me really does not have the courage to ask you to do that. I only hoped that Minister w.a.n.g can help me to go out of this city as soon as possible, so I can meet my dying parent for one last time."

w.a.n.g Tian squinted his eyes even more suspiciously and asked: "Oh? So, you want me to help you pa.s.s the sealing protection formation and go out of this Imperial City?"

w.a.n.g Shan quickly helped Tang Li Xue and replied: "That is right~! Old man, it should not be hard for you to do that, right? You only need to help Miss Tang out of this city! Well, I also want to accompany Miss Tang to meet her dying parents, so please add me too, okay?!"

w.a.n.g Tian still did not say anything as he kept staring at Tang Li Xue to measure her carefully.

After a few seconds of the silent tense atmosphere, w.a.n.g Tian finally spoke to Tang Li Xue still with a tone filled with suspicion: "Why don't you tell me your parents' location and your parents' names, then I would send my people to escort your parents here to meet you instead?"

Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief and instantly became dumbfounded after hearing w.a.n.g Tian's words.

"What a great idea, old man~!" w.a.n.g Shan exclaimed in awe at his father's suggestion.
