Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 1181: Xi’er’s Brilliant Idea!

Tang Li Xue’s pink lips twitched slightly as she began to worry about Shuang’er’s future.

Tang Li Xue also recalled that Little Loki was still missing right now.

"These children really like to make me worry." Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly.

Tang Li Xue decided to stop worrying about Little Loki and gave the task to find Little Loki to her perfect copy later.

"Have you had enough rest, Young Master Lu?" Tang Li Xue asked Lu Xingchen when he looked lethargic.

"We have defeated the undead general, so I think we should explore the ancient palace ruins now before nightfall." Tang Li Xue said again to Lu Xingchen.

"Okay, I understand. Let’s go!" Lu Xingchen stood up and led the way to the ancient palace ruins.

When Lu Xingchen did not pay attention and walked right in front of Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue quickly used [Swap] to switch places with her perfect copy again.

"What’s the matter, Senior Brother Xing? You do not look so good. Are your injuries still not healed yet? Should we rest for a little bit longer?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy asked worriedly.

Lu Xingchen’s mood immediately brightened a lot as soon as he heard Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy call him Senior Brother Xing.

Lu Xingchen smiled gently at Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and replied: "It is okay. I just felt a little bit unpleasant before, but now, I am completely fine."

"Really? Or maybe I should help you massage your shoulder, so you can feel more comfortable? How about it, Senior Brother Xing? Do you want to try it?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy tilted her head cutely and began to tease Lu Xingchen again, as usual.

"Are you sure you would not break my shoulder instead?" Lu Xingchen laughed.

"How rude?! Senior Brother Xing, how could you have no trust in my skill?" Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy pouted her pink lips and pretended to sulk.

.....

While Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy and Lu Xingchen started to explore the ancient palace ruins, the real Tang Li Xue, who had returned to the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], immediately headed to the Earth Floor to find Xi’er.

"Hi, Sister Xue~! Do you need something from me?" Xi’er happily hugged Tang Li Xue’s arm and greeted her.

"Hehe, I have something good for you, Xi’er." Tang Li Xue smiled as she took the Demonized General’s full black armor and sword.

"This is... The dense malevolent aura, killing intent, and undead energy from this armor and sword have reached a terrifying degree. Their owner must be someone extremely powerful. Where do you get this armor and sword from, Sister Xue?" Xi’er gasped in surprise and asked Tang Li Xue curiously.

Tang Li Xue chuckled and began to tell Xi’er about ancient ruins, the Demonized General, Shuang’er’s evolution, and how the Demonized General was defeated by Shuang’er.

Xi’er exclaimed in amazement from time to time when she heard Tang Li Xue’s story.

"You have to introduce me to Shuang’er later, Sister Xue~! We are both treasure spirits, so I am sure that we will definitely get along well! Oh, and those ancient ruins are also very interesting. Should we bring everyone to explore those ancient ruins together later? I am sure Lucia and Yaya will also feel very happy." Xi’er suggested to Tang Li Xue.

"We will see if we have some free time later. Our most important task right now is to quickly master the power of the Profound Laws, so I hope you, Lucia, and Yaya can quickly master any Profound Laws before we get off this Flying Island." Tang Li Xue replied to Xi’er.

Xi’er, Yaya, and Lucia were different from Little Loki, who only needed to devour anything with its [Heaven’s Devour] to get stronger very rapidly after all.

Don’t look at the current Little Loki, who seems not to grow much, but its strength has actually grown so much after it ate so many precious resources and treasures until now.

Little Loki in its Kitten Form might not change at all, but its Battle Form had actually grown much more powerful, bigger, and imposing than before.

Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue has never let Little Loki fight using its Battle Form lately after she saw the premonition of her death with [Death Vision Card].

Little Loki in its Battle Form was just too eye-catching, and its evil, sinister aura was too intense, as if it was almost condensed into a solid state.

The surrounding living creatures, whether they were beasts, humans, or plants, would be affected by Little Loki’s evil, sinister aura in its Battle Form and lose their minds, then become very ferocious and bloodthirsty.

Even the [Void Lurking Boots]’s aura, breath, and presence concealment effect could no longer work once Little Loki entered its Battle Form.

So, Tang Li Xue decided to seal off Little Loki’s Battle Form and reminded it sternly to never use it, unless she permitted it or it was absolutely necessary to save the lives of anyone in their team.

Tang Li Xue’s hunch was getting stronger that the reason for Song Wuyi and Li Changsheng hunting her down and killing her should be because Little Loki’s true identity as Taotie’s cub had been somehow exposed in the Central Continent in the future.

In short, their team might face great danger, and Little Loki should be forced to reveal its Battle Form in order to save them.

Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly and shook her head to put the matters at the back of her mind for now.

What they could do right now was to get stronger as quickly as possible, so they would be strong enough to face any danger in the future.

In the bad future revealed by the [Death Vision Card], there was no Shuang’er!

It means the future had already started to change!

’I should not reveal Shuang’er easily in front of anyone once I reach the Central Continent. Shuang’er would be one of my strongest trump cards to face Song Wuyi and Li Changsheng in the future, so the fewer people who know about Shuang’er, the better it would be.’ Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.

"Xi’er, do you think that Demonized General can be resurrected if we put this armor and sword into your [Sword of Disaster]?" Tang Li Xue asked Xi’er’s opinion.

Xi’er grabbed the black armor and sword and examined them more closely, then she pinched her chin and pondered carefully for a few moments.

Xi’er shook her head before she nodded her head, which made Tang Li Xue confused.

"The Wrathful Hero Spirit has been completely dissipated. Different from the undead lady in the red dress who had merged with the Heaven Edge Sword, Shuang’er should have killed the Demonized General very thoroughly." Xi’er explained to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment while muttering: "So, this armor and sword are completely useless?"

"Not really. Even though the Demonized General is completely dead, but I have a better idea on using this armor and sword." Xi’er uttered while smiling mysteriously at Tang Li Xue.

"Better idea?" Tang Li Xue asked curiously.

"Hehe, even if the Demonized General is still alive, it may take us a long time to tame such a powerful malevolent spirit. It is a complete waste of time and effort, so it may not be a bad thing for Shuang’er to completely kill the Demonized General." Xi’er spoke to Tang Li Xue, which made Tang Li Xue even more confused instead.

"Rather than taming the Demonized General, I think it would be more cost-efficient, easier, and better if we use this armor and sword to create our own powerful ghost general." Xi’er finally revealed her brilliant idea.

Tang Li Xue: "?!"

Tang Li Xue was completely dumbfounded as soon as she heard Xi’er’s bold idea.

Xi’er thought Tang Li Xue was doubtful about her idea, so she decided to explain it further to Tang Li Xue: "I planned to choose one among our ghost army to become the ghost general. There are many advantages in doing it that way."

"First, we no longer need to waste our time and effort to tame him because he has already become completely obedient and loyal to us."

"Second, the Demonized General might be extremely powerful, but it should not be that easy to control, because he looked like an evil spirit who had already lost his mind."

"Not to mention, the Demonized General is very biased towards the Human Race, so if someday we order him to fight against the opponents from the Human Race, there is a high chance that he may not obey our orders."

"Third, because the ghost general will be from our own ghost army, he should have much better synergy with the ghost army."

"The ghost army will trust the familiar ghost general more, and the ghost general also understands the ghost army better."

"In short, I am sure that the new ghost general could lead our ghost army much better than the Demonized General." Xi’er ended her explanation and gave Tang Li Xue some time to digest the information.

Tang Li Xue’s topaz blue eyes shone brighter like a pair of stars after she listened to Xi’er’s explanation.

Tang Li Xue was really amazed by Xi’er’s intelligence.

Tang Li Xue excitedly patted Xi’er’s shoulder and said in a delightful tone: "As I expected from my Zhuge Liang! You are really the most reliable one among all!"

"Uh, who is Zhuge Liang?" Xi’er asked curiously.

"A famous strategist from the Human Race." Tang Li Xue answered briefly.

Tang Li Xue left the Demonized General’s black armor and sword to Xi’er, so she could use them to create their own powerful ghost general.

Xi’er began to choose the best and the smartest among the ghost army.

Their ghost army was the most elite army from the Great Wei Dynasty, the Black Dragon Army.

Each of them was the chosen one.

The best among the best from the Great Wei Dynasty’s soldiers.

That was what gave Xi’er confidence to create a much better ghost general compared to the Demonized General.
