Chapter 503: Shocking News!
d- |m
Tang Li Xue frowned while looking curiously at Instructor Mei Lan and the bamboo tube.
Tang Li Xue still felt confused at Instructor Mei Lan's vague words, but she still obediently took the bamboo tube from Instructor Mei Lan and slowly tapped it on her forehead while closing her eyes.
Then Tang Li Xue saw a majestic tall mountain covered with white mist.
However, Tang Li Xue felt that this majestic tall mountain was somewhat quite familiar to her...
"Wait a minute... This... This is Cang Yuan Mountain, right?! But... but... but... where the h.e.l.l is the huge Inheritance Ground Tablet on the top of the mountain?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in shock as she suddenly opened her topaz blue eyes in disbelief.
"That is right! The Inheritance Ground Tablet suddenly disappeared without any trace from Cang Yuan Mountain a few days ago. We were worried something bad happened to you, so we bring Yaya to look for you." Instructor Mei Lan explained more clearly.
"Ya yayaya~!!!" Yaya babbled while staring at Tang Li Xue with a worried look.
Tang Li Xue still felt stupefied by the previous shocking scene, but she also felt warm by the concern of Yaya, Instructor Mei Lan, and the other two teachers.
So, Instructor Mei Lan and two teachers brought Yaya out with them because they wanted to use Yaya's mental connection with Tang Li Xue to track Tang Li Xue's whereabouts before.
"Is that news really true? But how could that huge Inheritance Ground Tablet suddenly disappear without any trace?!" Tang Li Xue asked with a tone filled with disbelief.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes again and replied: "We all know about it, but it does not rule out the possibility that Asura Demon Sect got a.s.sistance from another continent's higher-level powerhouse."
"Sigh... There are so many speculations, but we completely lack crucial information. The problem was that all the people and cultivators around Cang Yang Mountain at that time also vanished without any trace too. There are no witnesses at all." Teacher Li Wei blurted another piece of information.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue got a chill on her spine right now.
If she did not leave Cang Yang Mountain and decided to hide or rest there for a few more days before... then would she also vanish without a trace too right now?!
No wonder Instructor Mei Lan, Teacher Li Wei, and Teacher Bai Wuchen hastily brought Yaya to find her before!
But Tang Li Xue still felt very strange about this incident.
It was like the thieves wanting to steal something important, then they thought that it was too troublesome to look for it so they just took the entire house instead.
That was too sloppy, right?
And also... If they were a high-level powerhouse from another continent stronger than anyone else in this Lightwind Continent just like Teacher Bai Wuchen said, then why did they need to be so sneaky?
Did they need to be afraid of miscellaneous weak cultivators from this Lightwind Continent?
'Unless they did it in this way to hide something... Urgh... something like... wait a minute, what if they were not from the human race?! Sigh... My guess is getting more and more ridiculous. Just forget it! This is not my job anyway.' Tang Li Xue shook her head to clear her confused mind.
"All right, that is enough. We are not getting anywhere with only this kind of vague information." Instructor Mei Lan dismissed their discussion.
Instructor Mei Lan faced Tang Li Xue again and kindly reminded her: "The situation outside will be very chaotic, so it will be best if you do not go out alone anymore from now on. Even if we go out again together for a mission later, you must become much more careful."
"I understand, Instructor Lan." Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
Then Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan again in reluctance: "Err... Instructor Lan... about those a.s.sa.s.sins. Can you help me find who hired them to kill me?"
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as she replied with a light tone: "That is easy to do. Those humans should be the killers from a.s.sa.s.sin Tower. It is a loose organization, so I am sure, we have some fox agents planted there."
"I will tell you the information tomorrow. You should go back home and take a rest for today. But do not forget to go to cla.s.s earlier tomorrow." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled as she waved her hand to Tang Li Xue and walked away toward Education Department with the other two teachers.
Tang Li Xue also slowly walked back toward the direction of the Residential Building with Yaya sitting on her shoulder.
She enjoyed the crowded street scenery of Myriad Foxes Academy.
Different from when she was in the human city or town, all the people... or rather foxes in human form here had a furry tail and a pair of fox ears too, so she did not need to cover her tail and fox ears.
Tang Li Xue felt much more relaxed here compared to the world outside.
It did not take long for Tang Li Xue and Yaya to reach Residential Building, but she did not go directly to her room.
Tang Li Xue decided to bring Yaya to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor of the Residential Building and treat Yaya to eating some expensive luxurious delicacies to celebrate that she successfully avoid disaster and safely coming back to Myriad Foxes Academy again today.
Tang Li Xue and Yaya greedily gobbled the delicious expensive meals to their heart content until they were full, and their stomach bloated a bit.
But after that, Tang Li Xue felt the pain of spending her credits to pay for it.
'Sigh... I should work harder to make more talismans and sell them later to replenish my thinning credits.' Tang Li Xue thought with a depressed expression.
Tang Li Xue brought Yaya to get on the hovering disc up to the 32nd floor.
But before Tang Li Xue entered her room, she decided to knock on the Silly Fox room and Bingbing room to say hi to them first.
She did not see these two for more than one month, so she kind of missed them too.
Unfortunately, it looked like both Silly Fox and Bingbing were not in their room right now.
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment and went back to enter her room.
It was still the same closet-sized room at first until Tang Li Xue inserted her card into the black tiny box behind the door.
Then the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and she was in front of the large courtyard full of beautiful flowers now.
"Huff~! Finally~! My home sweet home~!" Tang Li Xue took a deep breath while walking toward a two-story ancient Chinese house in the middle of the courtyard.
The first Tang Li Xue did after she entered her house was to undress and brought Yaya to take a warm bath with her!
It was extremely comfortable after a long journey that Tang Li Xue soaked in the warm flower bath for almost one hour.
After going out of the bathroom with Yaya, Tang Li Xue quickly headed to her bedroom and jumped onto her beloved soft bed, then fell fast asleep instantly with Yaya.
.....
...
.
When Tang Li Xue woke up again, the skies outside the window already turned dark.
Tang Li Xue sat on her soft bed while muttering in an excited tone: "This is the time~!"
Tang Li Xue did not wake up the sleeping Yaya.
She took out several items from her s.p.a.ce pouch and system storage, then line them up in front of her.
Six [2 Times EXP Cards]...
Sapphire Armored Wasp's Royal Jelly stored in the Green Gourd...
Sapphire Armored Wasp's Honey stored in the spatial ring...
[Comprehension Pill]...
"Hmmm~! What should I do first?" Tang Li Xue whispered while cutely tilting her head.
Tang Li Xue peeked at Green Gourd and the spatial ring.
She took out a bit of Royal Jelly and Honey from Sapphire Armored Wasps then checked them with her [All Knowing Eyes] first to look at their effects.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Sapphire Armored Wasp's Royal Jelly]
[Description: Extremely high nutritious jelly secreted by Sapphire Armored Wasps. Used to feed wasp larvae and queen wasps.]
[Effect: Increase Strength, Toughness, and Agility by a lot. First-time consumption will have a one hundred percent chance to awaken defense-type divine ability according to the consumer race.]

[Sapphire Armored Wasp's Honey]

[Effect: Cures any wounds, disabilities, disease, poison, curse, silence, paralyze, confusion, blind, mute, deaf, concussion, soul injury, and so on. ]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath after she read the effect of the royal jelly and honey.
"Aren't these two things too powerful for G.o.d's sake? It feels rather wasteful to just consume all of them to increase my level..." Tang Li Xue murmured while frowning.
Then she decided to keep half of the Royal Jelly and Honey for future use.
She also wanted to share them with Silly Fox, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lan later. Oh, right... Teacher Bai Wuchen and Teacher Li Wei too, since they also went to save her before.
"All right, I will do that later. For now... Let's use some Deity Coins to comprehend a martial art first, then consume [Comprehension Pill] to master it faster!" Tang Li Xue said as she opened her system status window.
There were two powerful martial art secret techniques that Tang Li Xue wanted to learn... [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] and [Essence Devouring Technique]!
Unfortunately, she only has a little bit more than 1300 Deity Coins right now. While she needs to spend 1500 Deity Coins if she wanted to learn both of them...
