Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 961

"Damn it~! This is truly a waste of time! I should not have believed in that sneaky ghost!" Tang Li Xue mumbled angrily.

Tang Li Xue was ready to give up and planned to immediately get out from the Yin Burial Ground.

But just as she turned her slender body around, she actually saw the ghost soldier again at the end of the corridor.

In this dark and gloomy environment, any normal person would have already been scared to death if they saw such a horror scene, but Tang Li Xue was clearly not a normal person.

"Hey, you damn bast*rd ghost! How dare you play with me around like this?!" Tang Li Xue scolded the ghost soldier instead.

The ghost soldier did not reply to Tang Li Xue.

Just like before, he pointed his finger in a certain direction before he disappeared again.

Angry veins popped out on Tang Li Xue's forehead.

She really did not want to follow the ghost soldier's guidance anymore, but she had already gone this far, so it would be such a shame if she gave up halfway.

Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as she finally decided to see where the ghost soldier wanted her to go.

After following the ghost soldier's guidance a few more times, Tang Li Xue reached the beautiful garden with a fish pond in the middle of it.

Tang Li Xue watched the ghost soldier standing at the pavilion beside the fish pond and pointing his finger at one of the pavilion's pillars, then disappearing all of a sudden again as usual.

Tang Li Xue walked to the pavilion and carefully checked the pillar that the ghost soldier had previously pointed at.

Surprisingly, she found a switch that could be turned hidden in that pillar!

Tang Li Xue took a deep breath before she tried to turn the switch until it could not be turned anymore.

CLACK~!

Tang Li Xue heard a faint sound of some mechanism at work, then...

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

SPLOOSSH~!

The fish pool actually began to split, showing a stair to the underground!

"This is... a hidden passage?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.

Tang Li Xue did not immediately go down into the hidden passage.

She summoned Xi'er, Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia out first, then asked about their opinion.

"What do you guys think? Can that ghost soldier really be trusted?" Tang Li Xue asked her team after she told them what had happened.

"It would be too dangerous if we all went down there together. What if there are many traps waiting for us down there? So, let me go down and check it first." Xi'er suggested to Tang Li Xue.

Yaya: "Yaya~! Yayayaya~! (Me too~! I want to go down too~!)"

Little Loki: "Meow! Nyaoow Meow Meew! (Let me do it! I have [Instant Teleportation] and [Void Lurking Boots]!)"

Lucia: "Chirp chirp! Kweek Kweek Kwek~! (I can protect you all! I have great speed and [Silver Dragon Skin Pearl]!)" _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

Xi'er added again by saying: "My true vessel is not this undead body but the [Sword of Disaster]. I cannot be killed even if this undead body is destroyed."

Tang Li Xue slapped her forehead in annoyance as she shouted in resignation: "All right, that is enough! All of you, shut up! I understand what you all want! Then let's go in together! Just remember to be careful and never let your guard down."

Tang Li Xue really regretted asking them all.

Xi'er was the strongest among them, so she stood at the very front.

Lucia had the fastest speed and high defense, so she would cover Tang Li Xue's rear.

Little Loki and Yaya sat on Tang Li Xue's right and left shoulders as usual, but they were ready to make their move to protect Tang Li Xue from any harm at any time.

Tang Li Xue frustratedly realized that she was actually the only burden on their team.

Xi'er, Tang Li Xue, and Lucia carefully entered the hidden passage by descending the stone stairs between the fish pool that was divided into two.

The stone stairs went down quite deep, maybe around thirty meters below the ground or so, while the hidden passage was dark and narrow.

Luckily, there were torches hanging on the right and left sides of the hidden passage.

Of course, Tang Li Xue and her team could still see clearly even in the dark, so the torches did not mean much to them.

When Xi'er reached the last stone stairs, there was no trap like what they had expected, but there were actually two guards who guarded on the right and left sides of the bronze gates located at the end of the stone stairs.
