Reincarnated As A Fox With System (WN)
Chapter 728: City Protection Formation Activated!The light from [Mirror of Revelation] did not only have the effect of forcefully revealing the true form of any beast, demon, or ghost, but it would also stun them for a couple of seconds.
Rongrong took this chance to throw an advanced-level talisman, [Immobilization Talisman], in order to catch Tang Li Xue's perfect copy alive.
But who knew that Elder Yang suddenly jumped in front of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy to protect her, so Rongrong's [Immobilization Talisman] struck Elder Yang's body instead?!
BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~! BUZZ~!
Elder Yang instantly felt his entire body was electrocuted.
His entire body felt numb, and he could no longer move even his finger, but he still used his last strength to mutter: "Xiao... Bai... Run..."
When Tang Li Xue's perfect copy woke up from the [Mirror of Revelation]'s stunning effect, she shouted in panic as she swiftly approached Elder Yang to check his condition: "Xiao Hei~!"
"Yangyang?! Why did you go so far just for this vixen?! If the one I threw is a lethal advanced-level talisman, you would have already died right now, you know that?!" Rongrong screamed while gnashing her pearl-white teeth in anger, and her eyes turned bloodshot in intense jealousy.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy sighed in relief after she made sure that Elder Yang was all right, and he was only immobilized by the power of the talisman for some time.
"Brother Feng... You..." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy heart Zhu Yan's voice from behind her.
When Tang Li Xue's perfect copy turned around, she saw Zhu Yan was actually staring at her with a pair of eyes filled with tears.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could see intense anger, disappointment, and sadness in Zhu Yan's tearful eyes since she should have already realized that Tang Li Xue's perfect copy had actually tricked her all this time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Yan'er, I..." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy really wanted to explain everything clearly and apologize to Zhu Yan, but before she could say anything, several Nascent Soul Stage experts appeared there to capture her!
Without any other choice, the real Tang Li Xue could only use her [Twin Moons] divine ability to un-summon her perfect copy before those several Nascent Soul Stage experts could make their move to subdue her perfect copy.
In that instant, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy in the fox form suddenly disappeared from there as if she was just an illusion.
"That vixen should still be in this Garden City right now. Activate the City Protection Formation to seal off the entire city and find her at all costs ~!" Rongrong gave her order to several Nascent Soul Stage experts in a chilling tone filled with intense anger, jealousy, and killing intent.
"We understand, Miss Rongrong!" Several Nascent Soul Stage experts nodded at Rongrong with solemn expressions.
.....
The real Tang Li Xue stopped practicing the combination of [Essence Devouring Technique], [Art of Concealment], and [Energy Manipulation] in panic.
After she un-summoned her perfect copy, she hastily took out her communication talisman from her space pouch to contact Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox as soon as she could.
She knew that Rongrong would never give up just like that. She would definitely seal this entire Garden City and ask all the people in the Gu Family's mansion to hunt her down soon.
Instructor Mei Lan's voice resounded from her communication talisman: "Hello, Xiao Xue. Why are you contacting all of us like this? Is there any problem?"
Silly Fox anxiously shouted: "Don't worry, Xue~! I will surely save you right now!"
Bingbing rebuked Silly Fox in annoyance: "Shut up, Silly Fox! Let Xiao Xue talk!"
Tang Li Xue informed them in a solemn tone: "Not good, the true identity of my perfect copy had been discovered by Rongrong. She suddenly used [Mirror of Revelation] to my perfect copy a few moments ago! To make it worse, she did it right in front of Zhu Yan!"
Instructor Mei Lan calmly gave her instruction to her three students: "All right, I understand. We all will go back and gather in the inn right now."
When Tang Li Xue hung up the connection of her communication talisman, the entire Garden City was suddenly shrouded in a dim blue light barrier as the City Protection Formation was activated.
"Damn it~! They already activated the City Protection Formation to trap us down in this city!" Tang Li Xue scolded in a more solemn tone.
But Tang Li Xue did not panic at all.
She had faced the same situation at the Foxes Hunting Festival before.
In fact, the situation at that time was much worse than now, since she did not have Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan with her, while Little Loki could not use its [Heaven's Devour] divine ability.
It only took less than one minute for Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan to come back and gather in the inn.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki and Yaya with her, then they attended an urgent meeting in Instructor Mei Lan's room.
"The situation in the city has become very chaotic right now because they suddenly activated City Protection Formation without any warning. We can take this chance to mingle with people to hide from their chase." Bingbing gave her suggestion.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and immediately rejected Bingbing's idea: "No, they will surely check everyone on the street using their [Mirror of Revelation] one by one. Not to mention, we cannot hide ourselves from Nascent Soul Stage experts' divine sense."
"However, hiding in this inn is also not a good idea since they will surely check this place sooner or later. At this rate, we will surely be discovered by them no matter where we run or hide." Instructor Mei Lan concluded in frustration.
"My Little Loki has a special power to create a hole in any formation. I can let Little Loki use it to make a hole in this City Protection Formation later if we want to escape from this Garden City." Tang Li Xue decided to tell them about one of Little Loki's powerful abilities.
Then Bingbing muttered in hesitation: "But if we escape from here just like that, what about our mission and Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox instantly fell silent for a while.
They were clearly unwilling to give up on this S-grade difficulty urgent mission just like that after they wasted so much of their effort and time to carry it out.
Especially Tang Li Xue since she was really worried that Zhu Yan's true identity as Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei would be discovered by them too sooner or later since they have that annoying [Mirror of Revelation].
She did not dare to imagine what kind of treatment Zhu Yan would receive from Rongrong and Gu Shengxin if her identity as Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei was discovered later.
Instructor Mei Lan stared at Tang Li Xue instead and said to her: "What do you think? Since you have managed to get closer to Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei really well these days, do you think she will obediently follow us if we try to pick her up later?"
Tang Li Xue shook her head before replying: "I do not know. The last time I saw her, she looked at me in great disappointment and sadness as if I had told a huge lie to her. She must be very broken-hearted because of it."
"But no matter what she feels about me right now, I definitely could not leave her alone in this place. Because it is too dangerous for a sea beast like her to stay here! I have to bring her out from there as soon as possible." Tang Li Xue muttered in a firm tone.
As for her Xiao Hei or Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue thought he would most likely be all right since she had already seen how badly Rongrong falling in love with Elder Yang.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled in satisfaction when she saw Tang Li Xue's growth.
Previously, Tang Li Xue could only follow Instructor Mei Lan's every decision, but right now, she has begun to show a sign of leader.
"All right, just tell us what is your plan. Do you need our help to sneak into Gu Family's mansion again?" Instructor Mei Lan asked.
But Tang Li Xue shook her head to reject Instructor Mei Lan's offer while saying: "No, that is too dangerous. I think I will just send my perfect copy again to fetch her, while we sneak out of this Garden City using Little Loki's ability before those Nascent Soul Stage experts can find us."
Bingbing and Silly Fox immediately expressed their objections: "No way~! Xiao Xue, you already said it is too dangerous, so how could we let you do it alone?!"
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes as she replied in a casual tone: "I am only sending my perfect copy, so it is not dangerous for me at all. You two do not need to worry. I will never do anything rash to endanger myself."
