Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354: We Are Really Counting on You!

The expression of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy went dark in an instant after she heard Elder Yang's words.

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy bit her pink lips in worry before decided to ask with a hesitant tone: "You… will keep standing up for those girls, right? You will never comply with those groups of petty cowards, right?"

Elder Yang raised his eyebrow and glanced at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy, then asked back with a curious tone: "I wonder why do you always seem to care so much with those girls? You also acted like this when I was argued with them yesterday. Are you sure that they are not your friends or something?" _{freēwebnovel.com}

Thanks to her several upgraded skills last night, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could remain really calm and did not panic under Elder Yang's doubtful questions.

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy lazily replied: "Because they are the same people like me. They are also rogue cultivators without any authority and power that wandering around randomly to many places, just like me. Oh, wait... There is something strange here... why don't those officials make me into a scapegoat too?"

Elder Yang chuckled and said: "Do you think that those rotten officials really do not want to do that?"

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief before exclaimed in surprise: "Those rotten bast*rds really want to do that to me too?!"

Elder Yang immediately put up a smug expression and said: "Of course! Who do you think defended you from them? It is me! Without my help, you and those girls would be already detained in the dungeon and would be executed sooner or later. So, you should feel more grateful to me and treat me better from now on."

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy rolled her eyes at Elder Yang and replied with a mocking tone: "Honorable Elder Yang, please think carefully about it again. Do you really think those girls and me can enter the Imperial Palace of Feng Empire without the invitation from you? That is impossible, right?"

"In other words, we are all in this mess because of the invitation from you. If we somehow got detained or executed here, then all of those would be your fault, your sin! So, you better do your best to stand for us because it is your responsibility for bringing us into this mess. You should be the one that feels grateful and treat me better from now on since I am not blaming you for all of these." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy cleverly reversed Elder Yang's words while smiled mischievously.

Elder Yang: "..."

Elder Yang became speechless by the statement from Tang Li Xue's perfect copy. He subconsciously dropped his jaw and widened his eyes in shock, then forgot to close it for a few moments.

After saying all of those statements, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy felt really satisfied to see Elder Yang's dumbfounded expression, so she decided to walk ahead of Elder Yang and left him behind.

Elder Yang woke up from his dumbfounded state after a few moments and said while pointing his finger to his left: "Uh… you are heading in the wrong direction. We should be heading this way."

Tang Li Xue's perfect copy almost stumbled and fell when she heard Elder Yang's words, but she quickly steadied herself and turned around to head toward the direction where Elder Yang pointed.

Both of them kept talking and teasing each other in their way until they arrived at one of the crime scenes where all the officials in the room got slaughtered without any mercy.

This crime scene was the closest one to Elder Yang's Cherry Blossom Spring Palace. That was the reason why Elder Yang decided to inspect this place first.

At first, Elder did not let Tang Li Xue's perfect copy get close to the crime scene because the scene here was too gruesome for a young girl like her to see.

However, Elder Yang finally gave up under the insistent of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy and let her come into the crime scene, but with the condition that she was not allowed to touch anything here without Elder Yang's permission.

Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Lan, the real Tang Li Xue, and the others still got detained inside the room where they slept last night.

So many imperial guards kept watching them inside the room and guarding outside the door and windows.

There was really no way for them to secretly slip out without being seen by these imperial guards since these imperial guards kept watching their every movement so closely.

They were not even allowed to go to the toilet until now.
