Reincarnated As A Fox With System (WN)

When Xiao Hei heard Tang Li Xue's explanation, he instantly fell silent, and his expression instantly changed to gloomy.

How could Xiao Hei let his beloved Xiao Bai bear that kind of suffering just to be with him?!

"Xiao Bai, I understand what I have to do." Xiao Hei nodded to Tang Li Xue with a solemn expression.

Tang Li Xue smiled gently at Xiao Hei. Her blooming smile was so dazzling that Xiao Hei was stunned and completely bewitched by her again.

"Oh, right... You better take good care of my perfect copy later. She has done a very dangerous thing in order to save you before." Tang Li Xue muttered playfully to Xiao Hei as she activated the [Swap] skill to exchange location with her perfect copy.

When Xiao Hei woke up from his daze, Tang Li Xue was no longer there, and she was replaced by her perfect copy in male disguise, who was currently passed out after using [Paranormal Intuition] before.

Xiao Hei laughed helplessly, then he tried to move closer to the fainted perfect copy to check on her current condition.

However, he instantly felt an extremely painful tearing pain on his entire body and coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood again.

It seemed it would take quite some time for him to recover until he could move his body, so he could only wait patiently for help right now.

It did not take long for all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts from Gu Family, Alchemist Sect, and Immortal Sword Sect to decide to retreat from there as well.

The Nascent Soul Stage experts from the Gu Family and Alchemist Sect took away the passed-out Gu Shengxin and Zhu Yan, while the Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect took away Elder Yang and Tang Li Xue's perfect copy.

Even though all of the Nascent Soul Stage experts could still retreat safely from the battlefield, but it was undeniable that they had suffered a disastrous defeat just against the three False Spirit Beasts.

No Nascent Soul Stage experts lost their lives, but all of them were injured in the battle against the three False Spirit Beasts.

More than half of them were injured quite badly, and it might take several years or even more than a decade for them to completely recover.

While only a tenth of the human cultivator army was still alive at this moment, but most of them were also injured to varying degrees.

When all of them went back to Garden City, many families cried hysterically after knowing that their family members would never come back.

Yesterday, they departed from Garden City bravely with great fanfare, but it only took them one day for the Beast Tide to almost completely wipe out their hundreds or even thousands of human cultivator army.

It was such a great blow that all the people living in Garden City were shrouded by despair and fear.

Xiao Hei... Or rather be called Elder Yang for now was sighing in sorrow.

Usually, there was only one or two False Spirit Beasts, who acted as the pack leader and the deputy leader in the Beast Tide.

No one expected that the Beast Tide this time actually has four False Spirit Beasts leading them!

Actually, all Nascent Soul Stage Experts and the human cultivator army still had a chance to retreat when they saw there were four False Spirit Beasts on the Beast Tide side before.

If Elder Yang was the one who led the war, he would surely give the order to retreat in that instant after he knew it.

But the pride of those Nascent Soul Stage old experts clearly did not allow them to retreat without fighting, so they decided to fight and see if they could win against the four False Spirit Beasts.

Of course, the final result was the current disastrous defeat...

All Nascent Soul Stage Experts brought Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy, Gu Shengxin, Ling Shuang, and Zhu Yan back to the Gu Family's mansion.

Several high-level alchemists quickly checked their condition and treated their wounds.

Fortunately, Elder Yang had almost completely recovered after they returned to the Gu Family's mansion or his body's tragic condition might have made all of the people in the Gu Family's mansion fall into panic.

Imagine if the Immortal Sword Sect's future young patriarch became a cripple because he helped the Gu Family?! Just how shocking this news would be?!

Meanwhile, Elder Yang was afraid that those old high-level alchemists would notice the perfect copy's true gender, so he did not let them touch the perfect copy and let the perfect copy sleep in the same room as him instead.

All the people stared strangely at him at that time, but Elder Yang did not care about their opinions at all.

.....

When the sky had already turned dark, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan also returned to the Garden City a few hours after the Human Cultivator Army entered the Garden City.

Bingbing and Silly Fox had already tried to interrogate Tang Li Xue about what happened to her perfect copy, but Tang Li Xue was joking with them instead by saying that her perfect copy might be too sleepy today.

Tang Li Xue was really afraid that Instructor Mei Lan would notice something, but thankfully, Instructor Mei Lan did not say or ask anything about it at all on the way.

After going back to their inn, Instructor Mei Lan told them that they could go back to their room and take a rest.

When Instructor Mei Lan went back to her own room, she took out a gadget from her space pouch and activated it to seal her entire room, so no one could peep or eavesdrop into her room.

Then she took a communication talisman from her space pouch and used it to contact someone.

"Hello, Miss gentle beautiful fox, Lan'er~!" White Lion King's voice resounded from Instructor Mei Lan's communication talisman.

"Explain to me, how is it possible that human male genius is still alive right now?! Have really used my [Void Piercing Arrow] on him?!" Instructor Mei Lan questioned the White Lion King in a chilling tone.

"WHAT?! That is impossible~! I have clearly used the [Void Piercing Arrow] on him! I even confirmed with my own eyes that he had a huge hole in his chest before I left! Lan'er, are you really sure that he is still alive?" White Lion King shouted in panic to deny it.

"I am very sure that he is still alive." Instructor Mei Lan replied without any hesitation.

She could easily judge by Tang Li Xue's previous expression if Elder Yang had already passed away or was still alive.

From Tang Li Xue's shy and delightful expression, Instructor Mei Lan concluded that not only had she succeeded in saving Elder Yang but their relationship had also improved a lot today.

"But how could it be?! The destructive power of [Void Piercing Arrow] can even heavily injure or even kill the False Spirit Beasts that possess extremely tenacious vitality!" The White Lion King kept blabbering in astonishment.

Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said in a cold angry tone: "That is because you are too stupid! If you aimed at his head, he would have certainly died on the spot!"

The White Lion King: "....."

The White Lion King had to admit that it was his mistake to not aim at his head, but... wasn't that too cruel?

"Err... That Lan'er... I am really sorry, okay? But what about the payment..." The White Lion King thickened the skin on his face and tried to ask about his reward.

"You only completed my first task, so I will only give you the reward for that!" Instructor Mei Lan answered before she cut their connection and stuffed the communication talisman back into her space pouch.

Instructor Mei Lan gnashed her teeth as she complained in rage: "That dumb cat still has the nerve to ask for rewards after wasting my precious [Void Piercing Arrow]!"

It took a few minutes for Instructor Mei Lan to calm down her anger and put on her usual expression.

Instructor Mei Lan shook her head as she murmured to herself: "No, this failure is my mistake. It's because I am too anxious and make a hasty move. I should have already known that Elder Yang is a heaven-favored genius. His life should be protected by the heaven's luck, so it would not be that easy to kill him."

"Rather than killing him, it should be much easier to just ruin his relationship with Little Xue and make them hate each other instead." Instructor Mei Lan decided her next move.

.....

After Tang Li Xue went back to her room, she saw Little Loki and Yaya was already waiting for her with a bulging stomach.

Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes at them and said: "No wonder I have not seen you two since yesterday. So, you two have completely enjoyed yourself!"

But it made sense since so many cultivators, guards, and warriors had gone to war with the Beast Tide since yesterday, so both Little Loki and Yaya could easily sneak into the unguarded herb and fruit garden to eat until they were completely satisfied.

No matter how advanced their protective formation, it definitely could not stop Little Loki and Yaya, since Little Loki could easily open a hole for them to enter with its [Heaven's Devour].

Tang Li Xue was not worried at all, since all Nascent Soul Stage experts in Garden City had gone to war yesterday, so no one could catch Little Loki and Yaya.
