Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 1062: Chapter 1062: Deadly Stairs!

Previously, Tang Li Xue thought Shao Ying was truly a villainous fox for killing so many innocent people with her scheme.

But Shao Ying’s advice reminded Tang Li Xu about what she had done in the future shown by [Death Vision Card].

In that future, Tang Li Xue was losing her mind in rage after she had lost Yaya and Lucia.

In the end, the future Tang Li Xue decided to use [Great Calamity Sticker], merge with the gravely injured Little Loki, and devour the entire Immortal World.

Just how many innocent people and beasts would be killed by her future self by doing so?!

Tang Li Xue laughed ironically as she thought: ’I am really the worst hypocrite.’

How could someone awful like her judge what Shao Ying had done?

Tang Li Xue finally understood why her dark self whispered to her that they would definitely meet again.

It seemed her dark self was very sure that Tang Li Xue would take the same path once she lost someone important to her.

’Fortunately, it has not happened yet. All I can do right now is to do my best and make sure that will never happen!’ Tang Li Xue gritted her pearl-white teeth as she firmed her resolve.

Right at this time, Shao Ying’s projection flickered and became dimmer.

"Opps, it looks like the time is up." Shao Ying murmured before she stared at Tang Li Xue again.

"My plan actually has multiple objectives."

"First, it is to eliminate all troublesome elements, such as the current Emperor, Empress, Crown Prince, and their loyal supporters."

"I may cause chaos in the Capital City and weaken the Great Wei Dynasty to some extent, but it is totally worth it in order to achieve that first objective."

"Second, it can also give you a chance to get closer to that Xu Yang."

"Third, Xu Yang will have an opportunity to show his excellent abilities, so he can impress those old ancestors from the Imperial Palace and gain their support."

"There are also other objectives I want to achieve, but these three are the most important for you to know."

"Since the plan had already proceeded this far, the first objective should have been completed."

"As for the first and second objectives, they will be in your and Xu Yang’s hands to complete."

"I will be counting on you for the rest, Miss Tang..." Shao Ying’s projection disappeared after she finished her explanation.

Tang Li Xue was very impressed by Shao Ying’s cleverness.

Just by helping the Blood God Cult, she could actually achieve so much without having to spend anything at all.

On the other hand, both the Blood God Cult and the Great Wei Dynasty’s government were like dancing in her palm.

Well... Although most of it was actually caused by Tang Li Xue in the beginning, and Shao Ying only intervened halfway by adding ’oil into the flames’.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and murmured in bewilderment: "But I still do not understand. What is the benefit for the Fox Clan if Xu Yang truly becomes the next emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty?"

"Will he really appreciate it and comply with our Fox Clan after we have done so much to support him to get the throne? It should not be, right?"

After being with Xu Yang for quite some time, Tang Li Xue knew that Xu Yang was very smart and rational, so he probably would not abide by any of the Fox Clan’s wishes after he became the next emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty.

On the contrary, he might hold a grudge instead, since he would have already guessed that their Fox Clan was behind all of these bloody incidents.

Tang Li Xue could only shake her head and push away all of her distracting thoughts for now.

"All right, since Miss Shao Ying has already prepared another spare set of spatial stones on every corner of the Spatial Displacement Formation. It means I no longer need to bother replacing them with the new ones anymore." Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction.

It would be too time-consuming and too troublesome for her if she had to beat the giant corrosive kraken each time she had to replace the spatial stone at every corner of Spatial Displacement Formation.

Tang Li Xue used her [Moonlight Flickering Dance Step] and sprinted back to gather with Xu Yang again.

Since she did not need to replace the spatial stones anymore, then she could only return and help Xu Yang dispel the abnormal state of the corrupted Heavenly Golden Dragon.

After that, they could finally move on to the last step by reversing the Spatial Displacement Formation and breaking the crimson confinement barrier!

When the real Tang Li Xue headed back to meet again with Xu Yang and the Taoist Uncle, the Perfect Copy and Little Loki were bumping into some trouble right now.

"This is a little bit troublesome. We have to use a key to deactivate all the traps on the stairs heading to the second floor, but we clearly do not have any keys with us." Perfect Copy scratched the back of her head in frustration.

"Meeoow Nyaaoow! (Let’s just break past it with force!)" Little Loki annoyedly suggested.

Perfect Copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied: "It is easy for you to say that! There are so many dangerous traps and formations on those stairs!"

Perfect Copy had already checked with her [Fiery Bright Eyes] before, but she still could not find any weak spot to break safely to the second floor.

It made sense since the treasures on the second floor should be much more precious compared to those on the first floor.

The treasures on the first floor of the Imperial Treasury were usually used as rewards or gifts for meritorious officials, generals, concubines, or princes.

Meanwhile, the treasures on the second floor of the Imperial Treasury should be the national treasures of the Great Wei Dynasty or the precious collections from the first emperor until the current emperor.

The treasures stored on the second floor should be priceless, so its level of security was also incomparable to that of the first floor.

Even Spirit Transformation Realm Grandmasters could be trapped and killed by the traps and formations on the second floor.

Not to mention that Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and Little Loki should not be as strong as a Spirit Transformation Realm Grandmaster yet, so those traps and formations on the second floor were huge threats for them!

If Perfect Copy did not have a way to escape instantly from any danger by using the [Swap] skill, she would have already given up and brought Little Loki out of here.

"Okay, it should be impossible to break past them with force, but the difficulty would be extremely high." Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy commented after she scanned the stairs to the second floor carefully with her [Fiery Bright Eyes] for a few minutes.

"You should never act rashly like before, and make sure to always listen to my every command! Do you understand?!" Perfect Copy glared at Little Loki and warned it sternly.

Little Loki nodded and patted its furry chest obediently as if it was saying: "Don’t worry. Trust me, okay?"

After Little Loki jumped onto the top of Perfect Copy’s head, Perfect Copy took a deep breath to calm down.

"All right, here goes nothing~!" Perfect Copy gritted her pearl-white teeth as she took her first step onto the stairs.

"First stair, twenty centimeters to the right is the safest spot." Perfect Copy concluded after scanning it with her [Fiery Bright Eyes].

BWOOSH—! BWOOSH—! BWOOSH—!

A hail of arrows shot toward Perfect Copy from the right side!

[Energy Manipulation], Transparent Barrier—!

[Void Barrier]—!

BANG—! BANG—! BANG—! BANG—!

The penetrating power of the arrows was surprisingly strong!

Even though most of the arrows were blocked by Perfect Copy’s two layers of protective barriers, but some of them actually managed to pierce through them!

PUFF—! PUFF—! PUFF—! PUFF—!

Some of the arrows pierced deeply into Perfect Copy’s body!

"Ouch, damn it! It hurts!" Perfect Copy yelled in pain.

To make it worse, the arrows were actually smeared with deadly poison!

Ordinary people would have already been dead instantly by now, but it meant nothing for Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.

After she pulled out all of the arrows that pierced deeply into her body, all of her injuries quickly healed in only a few breaths.

Even the deadly poison was immediately neutralized by the [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline] and [Sun and Moon Aegis]’s effect.

"For the second stair, ten centimeters from the left should be the safest one." Perfect Copy took a deep breath before she stepped onto the second stair.

At first, Perfect Copy really wanted to just jump or fly to the second floor without using these damn deadly stairs, but after she scanned it with her [Fiery Bright Eyes], she immediately understood that doing it that way would only activate all the traps and formations instead.

Even a Core Formation Stage cultivator could fly freely without using any stairs, so how could this Imperial Treasury not take that into consideration?!

WEEEENG—!

The trap formation was activated the moment Perfect Copy stepped onto the second stair.

Dozens of human-form shadow creatures suddenly appeared and pounced toward Perfect Copy with sharp blades in their hands!

Before Perfect Copy could make her move to fight against those shadow creatures, Little Loki had already made its move first!

[Phantom Splitter] + [Black Lightning Form]—!

Little Loki’s tiny black figure instantly split into dozens of streaks of black lightning!

BOOM—! BOOM—! BOOM—! BOOM—!

Dozens of destructive black lightning bolts struck those dozens of human-form shadow creatures mercilessly until they were shattered to dust!

Then Little Loki returned and sat on the top of Perfect Copy’s head again in less than half a second.
