Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 919

Therefore, Tang Li Xue decided to do this pretense to help Little Loki obtain legitimate status in the Imperial Palace.

If anyone wanted to catch or kill Little Loki in the Imperial Palace, they had to consider the Third Prince’s face first since they would offend the Third Prince by doing that.

Tang Li Xue’s every move was under the surveillance of the Third Prince’s maids and guards, and she was locked up in her room most of the time, so she hoped Little Loki would be her ’ears’ and ’eyes’ for spying or eavesdropping any news in the Imperial Palace just like what Tang Li Xue did in her fox form when she was in the Asura Demon Sect before.

With Xi’er working on the outside and Little Loki working on the inside, Tang Li Xue was very confident that she could get any information she wanted from Imperial City and Imperial Palace to help her judge the overall situation.

The information she would get from them was extremely crucial for her to determine the timing of her escape later.

As for why not just tell the Third Prince the truth about Little Loki being her pet since the very beginning, there were actually many reasons for that.

First, she was afraid that the Third Prince would lose his trust in her after she told him about it.

In the current crucial situation in the midst of the struggle for the throne, losing the trust of her only backer would be extremely fatal for Tang Li Xue.

The second reason was because she wanted everyone to regard Little Loki as an ordinary kitten, so they would lower their guard down around it.

If anyone knew that Little Loki was a demonic beast or a beast lord, they would definitely be wary of it, and Little Loki’s task to secretly gather information would be much harder.

In short, this was what Tang Li Xue chose to do after she took everything into consideration.

The Third Prince led Tang Li Xue to get on the Imperial carriage together with Little Loki in her arms.

Then the Imperial carriage drove back toward the Imperial Palace while being escorted by a dozen guards galloping on their horses.

Tang Li Xue secretly felt happy and proud since the first step of her escape plan had proceeded very smoothly today.

Just when Tang Li Xue thought that it should not be that hard for her to escape from this place, something unexpected actually happened on their way back to the Imperial Palace!

BOOOOOOOOOOM~!

The Imperial Carriage rode by the Third Prince and Tang Li Xue suddenly exploded!

The explosion was so great that even the surrounding guards were thrown away dozens of meters and nearby buildings were shattered.

Although all of the Third Prince’s personal guards were at Golden Core Stage, they were still injured pretty badly by the explosion and coughed several mouthfuls of blood because of it.

"No way, Your Highness Third Prince!"

" Put out the fire quickly!"

"Where is Your Highness Third Prince?!"

…

The guards shouted and ran toward the burning carriage in panic. They even completely forgot their own injuries.

Even several high-rank Nascent Soul Stage masters that secretly protected the Third Prince never expected that something like this would happen!

Those high-rank Nascent Soul Stage masters hastily made a move to put out the fire and forcefully broke open the burned carriage. Find more to read at freewebnovel

It did not take long for them to find the Third Prince inside the burned carriage.

Thankfully, the Third Prince was actually completely unharmed because he had many life-protection treasures on him.

There was a transparent gold barrier wrapping around the Third Prince that protected him completely from the sudden devastating explosion.

As for Tang Li Xue?

She has died... Well, to be exact, if not for Little Loki who sensed the danger ahead of time and warned her right before the explosion, she would really have died right now.

Moreover, her life-saving skills such as [Sun and Moon Aegis] and [Damage Transfer] from [Twin Moons] divine ability currently could not be used, while her life-saving item like [Substitution Doll] had already been used up.
