Reincarnated As a Fox With System Chapter 658 Finally Losing Patience!

Chapter 658 Chapter 658: Finally Losing Patience!

The deep blue flames spread around very fast burning the entire Imperial Garden.

In only a dozen breaths or so, the deep blue flames had already set many buildings around the Imperial Garden ablaze.

The patrolling guards and soldiers immediately realized the violent flames in the Imperial Garden, but it was still too late since the deep blue flames had already spread around too much because of the strong wind.

They acted rather quickly and hastily collected the water to put down the flames, but that was only a futile effort since the deep blue flames were too hot, and they were not afraid of water.

Before the water in their bucket could reach the deep blue flames, the water would have already evaporated.

Tang Li Xue could still use and control the deep blue flames of pride without the Phoenix of Pride to boost it, but the power of the flames would be a lot less powerful.

Tang Li Xue would rather use the other powerful divine abilities in battle if there was no Phoenix of Pride, but the deep blue flames of pride clearly worked wonders in this situation.

Only when several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators made their move, the deep blue flames finally could be put out.

Those several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators used their divine sense to scan the burned-down Imperial Garden and the places around there, but they failed to find anyone suspicious.

In the end, they could only conclude that those intruders became impatient and started to make another commotion to force them to fulfill those intruder's previous demands.

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue was still wandering around with w.a.n.g Shan, and they were quite far away from the burned-down Imperial Garden, so no one suspected them.

Her perfect copy also had already done one of her tasks. She managed to find the location of the Imperial Treasury Room with w.a.n.g Shan's help.

Tang Li Xue made w.a.n.g Shan lean on the nearby pavilion and fell asleep there before she used her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy again.

This time, there was no need for them to say anything to each other since they already had their own respective tasks to do, but the perfect copy still playfully said something to Tang Li Xue: "Hey, I just remembered that I do not have any spatial treasure to store the imperial treasures~!"

Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "Do you think I have it? I came here empty-handed too~! Just borrow it from w.a.n.g Shan, I am sure with his n.o.ble status he should have a very s.p.a.cious spatial ring."

"Sigh, what a sinful girl you are~! You not only exploit him so much, but you even rob him of his belongings! I am very sure that he will become extremely traumatic of any beautiful woman after this." The perfect copy sighed pitifully at w.a.n.g Shan.

Tang Li Xue chuckled at her perfect copy and muttered: "Become traumatic after this? He is only an NPC in this treasure game. Do you really think he will still exist after we won this treasure game?"

From Tang Li Xue's point of view, w.a.n.g Shan or the other humans here were only like NPCs in Virtual Reality games. After she wins this treasure game, they would cease to exist like those NPCs in Virtual Reality games after she turned off the game console.

The perfect copy's mind and Tang Li Xue's mind were connected to each other, so she immediately understood what Tang Li Xue meant.

The perfect copy frowned deeply and warned the real Tang Li Xue: "Your mindset is not wrong, but you really should not indulge in it too much, or you might really lose your last trace of 'humanity' even after this Foxes Hunting Festival is over."

Tang Li Xue pondered her perfect copy's warning and nodded at her with a solemn expression.

Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then ran separately with her perfect copy to find the other least guarded place while her perfect copy would be heading toward the Imperial Treasury room with w.a.n.g Shan leading the way for her.

On her way, Tang Li Xue's mind was occupied with her perfect copy's warning as she thought: 'She is right... I seem to think a lot less about the worth of human lives right now after playing several treasure games against humans. So, this Foxes Hunting Festival also slowly made me numb to the matter of killing the humans?'

'But I had also already defeated and killed so many foxes too? So, it slowly brainwashed me to kill anyone as long as I got the order to do it like an obedient killing machine?' Tang Li Xue tried to guess in her mind.

Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her mind of any distracting thoughts.

"Any conspiration is not important. Well, it is not like I can do anything to fight against it with my negligible strength."

"So, the most important thing for me to do right now is to try to get stronger as fast as possible!"

Tang Li Xue smiled in a relieved mood as she concluded with a resolute heart.

But she really appreciated her perfect copy's warning that completely awoke her.

Her perfect copy did not prevent her from killing anyone since it was necessary for them to do it in order to win the treasure game, but her perfect copy warned her to never get used to doing it.

If not, she would probably resolve any problem she met in the future by killing everyone like a mindless beast.

Tang Li Xue stopped thinking about it for now and focused on the task she needed to do.

This time, Tang Li Xue's target was the Imperial Library.

The Imperial Library was located a bit close to the prince's and princess's rooms, but no one had any mood to read any books or any kind of literature in this extremely tense situation, so this Imperial Library was only lightly guarded.

Despite that, there were still around fifty guards and soldiers patrolling in this Imperial Library.

Tang Li Xue hid behind one of the tall bookshelves and silently summoned out Yaya and Little Loki to help her face those fifty guards and soldiers.

"Just like before, we will kill all of them as fast as we can! Are you two ready?" Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki and Yaya with a solemn expression.

Yaya and Little Loki also nodded at Tang Li Xue with a spirited expression as if to say they were ready to fight at any time.

Tang Li Xue smiled at them at patted their tiny head gently while saying: "Then let's go~!"

Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki turned invisible using their abilities and launched a sudden sneak attack at the patrolling guards and soldiers!

[Phantom Splitters] plus [Scythe Claw Qi] x3~!

[Moonlight Flash]~!

[Compressed Wind Swords]~!

PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

The sudden sneak attack from Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki managed to instantly kill more than ten guards and soldiers!

But different from before, there was actually a strong one with Core Formation Stage cultivation among them this time, and he might be the captain of this patrolling team!

The captain stared angrily at Tang Li Xue's team and mercilessly stabbed her with the spear in his grasp!

Tang Li Xue dodged the spear attack using [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] and decisively condensed a pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] in one breath!

'd.a.m.n it~! It would be bad if he called for backup! I must kill him quickly before he does it~!' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth.

Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled a pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] to swiftly kill the other guards and soldiers while she focused on facing the patrolling captain!

[Spirit Shock]~!

The patrolling captain suddenly felt very dizzy and staggered a bit.

Tang Li Xue swiftly took this chance to unleash one of her most powerful lethal attacks on the patrolling captain's vital point!

[Moon Shattering Strike]~!

But the patrolling captain could react on time and parry Tang Li Xue's attack with his spear!

Who knew that Tang Li Xue's smooth palm actually pa.s.sed through the patrolling captain's spear like a ghost?!

"An illusion?! This is bad!" The patrolling captain exclaimed, but it was already too late.

Yes, Tang Li Xue just used [Eyes of Illusion] to fool the patrolling captain's senses!

Tang Li Xue's [Moon Shattering Strike] struck the patrolling captain's back from the right side, made his heart and several of his internal organs explode, and killed him in one strike!

The previous Tang Li Xue might not be able to kill Core Formation Stage cultivators in one strike, but right now, her strength stat has reached her current maximum limit!

After Tang Li Xue killed the patrolling captain, Yaya and Little Loki also finished their task.

The corpses of fifty guards and soldiers turned into white lights and disappeared into nothingness leaving nothing behind.

Tang Li Xue hastily controlled her pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] to burn all of the bookshelves!

After the deep blue flames spread and set the entire Imperial Library ablaze, Tang Li Xue took Little Loki and Yaya into her System's pet s.p.a.ce and used [Swap] to exchange location with her perfect copy before she un-summoned her perfect copy.

Just like before, there would be no trace left to track back to her.

Tang Li Xue planned to repeat it several more times to make the tense situation deteriorate faster, so she could exploit it sooner.

But it seemed she overestimated the patience of those higher-ups, the Empress Dowager, princes, generals, and ministers...

She had only done it twice, but those people could no longer hold it on anymore and immediately decided to fulfil the request of those intruders.
