Chapter 912: Tang Li Xue Must Die!
912 Chapter 912: Tang Li Xue Must Die!
After the maids helped her take a bath, tidy her long silver hair, and put on her dress, Tang Li Xue immediately went to look for the Third Prince.
Unfortunately, her plan actually failed since the Third Prince had already gone out much earlier.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only wait until the Third Prince returned later, so she decided to go to the Imperial Library today instead.
But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to step out from the Third Prince’s courtyard, several guards blocked her way.
Tang Li Xue frowned unpleasantly as she glared at the guards and asked: “What are you doing?”
The several guards bowed their heads and apologized: “Sorry, Miss Tang. But this is His Highness Third Prince’s order.”
Tang Li Xue frowned deeper and asked coldly: “Do you mean His Highness Third Prince ordered you to confine me in this courtyard?”
The several guards fell silent, but Tang Li Xue instantly understood that her guess should be correct.
Tang Li Xue was very pissed off in her heart, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only choose to return to her room.
After she entered her room, Tang Li Xue put on a tantrum act and chased out all the maids from her room.
Tang Li Xue secretly mobilized the space energy from the ‘Void Seed’ inside her body to seal the entire room, so the sound inside the room would not be heard from outside.
Tang Li Xue panted heavily as cold sweat soaked her forehead.
“To think I almost exhausted to death just by making a simple isolation barrier like this. It seems I also need a lot of practice on how to use space energy from now on, so I can use it more skillfully and efficiently when I need it later.” Tang Li Xue murmured to herself.
Then Tang Li Xue released Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia from her System’s pet space.
The three little cuties immediately rushed toward Tang Li Xue. They happily rubbed onto her and kissed her.
Tang Li Xue’s annoyance and anger quickly dissipated, and the room was filled with Tang Li Xue and Yaya’s melodious laughter.
After playing around for a while with the three of them, Tang Li Xue slapped her forehead and said to them: “Oh, right~! I almost forgot to introduce someone to you all.”
Tang Li Xue took out pitch black [Sword of Disaster] from her space pouch and tapped at it a few times with her slender fingers.
The [Sword of Disaster] emitted black gas, and the black gas solidified into a beautiful mature lady in a red Hanfu dress.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia were very surprised by the sudden appearance of this red-dressed lady, so they jumped back to keep their distance and put on their battle stance in an instant.
“What’s wrong, Sister Xue? Do you need my help?” Xi’er asked Tang Li Xue with her usual cheerful voice.
But when Xi’er saw the trio of Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia, her eyes immediately brightened as she greeted all of them kindly: “Hello, everyone~! It is really nice to see you all again, hehehe!”
Tang Li Xue giggled in amusement when she saw the surprised, bewildered, and wary expressions on Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia’s faces.
“She is our new teammate, Xi’er. You three should have already known her since you three had met her in Underwater Palace before.” Tang Li Xue introduced Xi’er to Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia casually.
Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia quickly remembered it after Tang Li Xue mentioned it once.
Yaya and Lucia greeted Xi’er warmly while the tsundere and arrogant Little Loki still put on its usual cold and indifferent persona to Xi’er.
Tang Li Xue, Xi’er, and everyone did not think much of it since Little Loki was mostly acting like this to everyone, except to Tang Li Xue.
“All right, everyone… Honestly, our situation is not really good right now, so I need your help…” Tang Li Xue muttered to them in a solemn tone.
At first, Tang Li Xue planned to forbear and stay in this Imperial Palace for a few more days until she got all the crucial information about this Azure Mist Continent.
Unfortunately, her plan could not keep up with change…
Because of what had happened yesterday, the Third Prince actually forbade her from leaving this courtyard today.
Since she could not go to the Imperial Library anymore to find any useful information, Tang Li Xue decided to speed up her plan to get out of this Imperial Palace that was full of dangers and conspiracies as soon as possible.
Of course, it would not be that easy for her to leave this Imperial Palace under the eyes of so many people!
Even if she managed to somehow do it with the help of her [Myriad Manifestation Fox Mask], she would definitely become a fugitive and get chased by the Third Prince’s people.
Tang Li Xue could already see the Third Prince’s deep obsession with her just by looking at his eyes, so she knew that the Third Prince would never let her go that easily.
If she got caught by the Third Prince after she ran away from here, her fate would be like a canary in the cage.
‘Sigh… If only I had my full strength now, I would not need to worry too much about being chased by anyone. But with my current limited strength, the chance of me getting caught again after running away from here is very high.’ Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
Tang Li Xue started to miss her perfect copy and [Ethereal Form]…
Previously, Tang Li Xue always managed to get away from being chased by using the swapping and re-summon strategy with her perfect copy plus [Ethereal Form].
Unfortunately, she could not use any of her divine abilities for now because her beast core was still in almost shattered condition because of the destructive space energy in her body.
The only way to restore her beast core was by consuming all of the destructive space energy in her body by cultivating [Void Divinities Refining Method] before she could restore her beast core completely with [Recovery Pill].
‘Alas, forget it… there is no point in thinking about that at this point.’ Tang Li Xue quickly shook her head as she decided to focus on devising a perfect escape plan with Yaya, Little Loki, Lucia, and Xi’er.
Even though Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia might not really be useful in this field, but five heads should be better than one, right?
Their discussion lasted for a few hours.
In the end, Tang Li Xue and Xi’er concluded that… ‘Tang Li Xue must die!’
19:09
Of course, it did not mean Tang Li Xue had to die for real, but she had to die in the Third Prince’s eyes, so the Third Prince would not hunt her down after she escaped from here.
The Third Prince’s Fiance, Lu Yixin, and the Second Prince, Wei Guolin, who made things difficult for Tang Li Xue yesterday were the best scapegoats for this incident.
“According to Sister Xue’s story, the Second Prince should be a scheming person, so it would not be easy to frame him. I think it would be better to just target the Third Prince’s Fiance.” Xi’er gave her opinion.
Tang Li Xue also nodded in agreement.
To be honest, she really didn’t want to deal with the Second Prince anymore.
In Tang Li Xue’s opinion, the Second Prince was not only smart and ambitious, but he was also very cruel, a person who did not have a bottom line in doing anything to get what he wanted.
Yesterday’s incident was concrete proof of that.
She clearly did not have any grievance with the Second Prince, but he actually used his ability to lead an innocent girl like her into his trap without any scruples!
“Anyway, the sooner we make preparations, the better it will be. I cannot stand staying in a dangerous place full of scheming and conspiracies like this palace any longer.” Tang Li Xue muttered in an impatient tone.
Xi’er who was currently using the body of the red-dressed lady patted her chest and comforted: “Don’t worry, Sister Xue~! I will definitely help you escape from this palace safely!”
Yayaya~! (I will help too~!)
Nyaow, meow, meow~?! (What are you worrying about with me here?!)
Kwek, Kwek~! (Let me help too~!)
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she patted Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia’s heads gently while saying: “Don’t worry! You all will surely have your own tasks to do later.”
After discussion, Tang Li Xue hid all of them for a while before she ordered the maids to bring many delicious foods into her room.
Then Tang Li Xue chased all of the maids out before she let Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia out again from her System’s pet space, then they ate the delicious food together.
Unfortunately, Xi’er could not eat with them since the lady in the red dress was a corpse after all.
As the corpse, the lady in the red dress could not eat like the others, but she only needed to absorb the Death Energy in the [Sword of Disaster] to nurture her body and get stronger.
After they were full, the trio of Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia went back to System’s pet space to sleep, while Tang Li Xue sat on her bed and began her daily cultivation of [Void Divinities Refining Method] again.
In the evening, the Third Prince finally went back to his courtyard.
Tang Li Xue immediately went out to meet with him and asked for his permission to go for a walk around this Imperial City tomorrow.
Tang Li Xue had already thought of many ways to persuade the Third Prince so he would let her out tomorrow, but surprisingly, the Third Prince immediately allowed her without any reluctance.
We will see what Tang Li Xue plans to do later. (>w<) But would everything really go according to her expectations?
