Chapter 1054: Chapter 1054: Beauty Saves The Hero!
There were still so many crimson corrosive slimes scattered everywhere, but Xu Yang clearly had no time to kill them one by one, so he just avoided and ran away from them.
Just like what Tang Li Xue had expected, Xu Yang really planned to investigate the crimson barrier that covered the entire Imperial Palace.
All the crimson trees had been temporarily sealed away with the power of the Heavenly Golden Dragon, but the power of the crimson trees ended up corrupting the Heavenly Golden Dragon instead.
The Spirit Transformation Stage Grandmasters from the Imperial Palace’s side were too busy fighting against the corrupted Heavenly Golden Dragon right now, so no one had the time to investigate the way to break the crimson barrier until now.
"If I can find a way to break or dispel the crimson barrier, then maybe we can get out of this precarious situation." Xu Yang muttered resolutely.
But unfortunately, it was not as easy as Xu Yang’s expected.
ROOAAR—!
Two crimson slime dragons actually came and chased after Xu Yang right at this moment!
These two crimson slime dragons were probably the same ones who were chasing after Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy before.
Xu Yang’s face turned pale when the two crimson slime dragons came at him from his right and left sides!
Just as those two crimson slime dragons opened their mouth to spray out their crimson liquid jets toward Xu Yang...
ROOAAR—!
"Another one?!" Xu Yang widened his eyes in disbelief.
Xu Yang never expected that his luck would be this bad!
[Ice Breath]—!
The two crimson slime dragons were suddenly hit by silvery light and frozen into two ice statues!
BAAANG—!
A majestic dragon-like creature dived down from the sky and stomped on the two frozen crimson slime dragons until they shattered into ice crystal dust!
"Doctor Xu, you owe me one with this~!" A familiar yet melodious feminine voice resounded from the back of the majestic dragon-like creature.
When Xu Yang looked up, he saw a stunningly beautiful fox lady standing gracefully on the majestic dragon-like creature.
Who else was this stunningly beautiful fox lady if not Tang Li Xue?!
Tang Li Xue jumped down from [Imperial Frost Wyrm]’s back and landed right beside Xu Yang.
Tang Li Xue chuckled at Xu Yang and continued to say to him in a cheerful tone: "Err, so, can you consider my suggestion for you to become the Great Wei’s next emperor?"
Xu Yang’s cold and indifferent expression softened a lot after he saw Tang Li Xue was completely unharmed.
An imperceptible smile was formed on his handsome cold face, like a thousand years of ice had melted and spring had come.
Xu Yang hastily shut his mouth with his palm and coughed to cover his smile in embarrassment.
He ignored Tang Li Xue and continued to sprint toward the edge of the imperial palace to investigate the crimson barrier.
"Hey, wait for me!" Tang Li Xue yelled to Xu Yang as she secretly put her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] back into the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].
Then Tang Li Xue swiftly used her [Moonlight Flickering Dance Step] to chase after Xu Yang.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to ride on her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] and fly high because the Spirit Transformation Stage Grandmasters and Corrupted Heavenly Golden Dragon were still fighting fiercely in the sky.
Previously, Tang Li Xue summoned out her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] to see how effective her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] was in fighting against these corrosive creatures.
Surprisingly, [Imperial Frost Wyrm]’s new ice power was extremely effective in fighting against these corrosive creatures, and it could even defeat the two crimson slime dragons in only two moves.
Tang Li Xue was very pleased and happy with the growth of her martial soul, [Imperial Frost Wyrm].
Not to mention, her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] seemed to begin to comprehend the Profound Law of Ice and Water after it practiced hard in the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] for months.
If her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] could completely master the Profound Law of Ice and Water, then Tang Li Xue turned her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] into gauntlet form, and combined its power with her Profound Law of Heat and Cold, their overall power would be greatly improved!
Tang Li Xue grinned happily when she thought about it, which made Little Loki, who sat lazily on her shoulder, stare strangely at her.
After Tang Li Xue was running side by side with Xu Yang for one or two minutes, Xu Yang suddenly asked Tang Li Xue in a serious tone: "Why do you want me to become the Great Wei’s next Emperor?"
Tang Li Xue: "?"
Tang Li Xue frowned and pondered hard for a while to answer Xu Yang’s question.
Xu Yang spoke up to explain to her again: "I know you tried to persuade me because it was your mission and to pay your debt."
"But I mean, aside from that, have you ever sincerely wanted me to become the Great Wei’s Emperor?"
"Do you really think that I am suitable to become the Great Wei’s Emperor?"
"Do you sincerely think that I will truly be able to become a good emperor for the Great Wei Dynasty?" Xu Yang asked Tang Li Xue several questions in a row.
Tang Li Xue coughed to clear her throat before she replied in a solemn tone: "Well, you are right. I mostly do it to complete my mission and to pay my debt. But I really, truly, sincerely, think that you are the most suitable person to become the Great Wei’s next emperor!"
"You have seen how bad the Crown Prince’s character was before, right? If he becomes the next emperor, this Great Wei Dynasty will be doomed sooner or later."
"As for the Third Prince... I had accompanied him for a few days before. He is straightforward, persistent, and... sociable. I think he may be very suitable to become a great general or minister, but he is also not suitable to become the next emperor." Tang Li Xue explained clearly to Xu Yang.
Tang Li Xue implied that no one among the royal family was more suitable than you to become the next emperor of Great Wei.
Tang Li Xue glanced at Xu Yang to see his reaction, but unfortunately, Xu Yang’s expression was still cold and indifferent like usual.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment because she thought she had failed to persuade Xu Yang again.
Who knew Xu Yang suddenly asked her again in a soft voice: "What will you do if I really become the next emperor of the Great Wei later?"
"Ah? What?" Tang Li Xue asked back in puzzlement.
She actually heard Xu Yang’s question very clearly, but she could not understand what he meant.
"Never mind." Xu Yang muttered as he increased his speed and left Tang Li Xue behind.
But anyone should be able to tell that he was actually very embarrassed by his reddened face and ears.
Xu Yang actually wanted to ask if Tang Li Xue could always stay by his side if he agreed to compete for the throne and become the Great Wei’s next emperor.
Unfortunately, he was too embarrassed to ask Tang Li Xue clearly about it.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue herself was still dense and clueless about romantic relationships.
Unless Xu Yang could someday say his true feelings blatantly to Tang Li Xue, like what Xiao Hei does, then Tang Li Xue might not be able to realize it anytime soon.
Just like Taoist Uncle had said before, it was still a long way to go for Xu Yang to chase after Tang Li Xue.
After running at full speed for more than a quarter of an hour or so, Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang finally reached the edge of the imperial palace.
Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang bumped into a lot of crimson corrosive slimes on their way, but when those corrosive crimson slimes pounced at them, Tang Li Xue just froze those corrosive crimson slimes using her [Frost Moon] divine ability and left them there without destroying any of them.
Because of that, their journey to the edge of the imperial palace was smooth without any annoying things chasing after them like before.
"But we have to hurry. I bet those annoying corrosive monsters will definitely catch up with us sooner or later." Tang Li Xue reminded Xu Yang solemnly.
Tang Li Xue meant that if Xu Yang wanted to investigate or do something to the crimson barrier, then he had better do it fast before any annoying creatures appeared and pounced ferociously at them like before.
Xu Yang nodded seriously at Tang Li Xue before he took out several strange tools from his spatial ring.
Xu Yang skillfully set those strange tools at the crimson barrier and operated them to analyze the crimson barrier.
Tang Li Xue was truly amazed by Xu Yang’s versatility.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought the advanced formations set in Xu Yang’s courtyard and the Supreme Healing Hall before were created by Taoist Uncle.
But now Tang Li Xue realized that Taoist Uncle should have only been helping Xu Yang set up those formations before, but the one who created them should be Xu Yang himself!
Tang Li Xue’s stunningly beautiful face turned solemn as she muttered softly to Xu Yang: "They have come! I will try to hold them back."
Xu Yang worriedly stared at Tang Li Xue for a while before he nodded his head and replied in a firm tone: "Be careful. If you cannot hold them anymore, you can just run away."
Tang Li Xue chuckled at Xu Yang and said in a reassuring tone: "Don’t worry. You should have seen how powerful I am, right? It should be a piece of cake for me to defeat those small fries~! You just have to wait patiently here and focus on what you have to do. I will definitely be back soon."
