Chapter 644: Ninth Treasure Game Start!
Even though Bai Huohuo knew her hunch as the vessel of Heavenly Will Spirits, [Flame of Humility], should be mostly on point, but she still could not guess the strangeness of the black-haired fox girl.
Bai Huohuo closed her sacred white eyes and decided to forget it for now. She still has many important things to do other than brooding about the origin of the black-haired fox girl.
.....
The Apex Predator Level foxes from Tu Shan Faction did not know that even the other Apex Predator Level foxes from Qing Qiu Faction were actually not that fond of the black-haired fox girl.
The red-haired s.e.xy fox girl clicked her tongue in displeasure when she sensed the black-haired fox girl showing off her strength and said from the floating island where she was currently located: "Tsk~! What a repulsive abominable creature!"
Even the expression of the cheerful and friendly Meng Yue turned colder as she muttered with a tone filled with disappointment: "So, she is the fruit of that abomination experimental project..."
"Sigh, so having one Heaven's Favored Child like me is not enough to satisfy Qing Qiu Faction's higher-ups, huh? I hope the higher-ups did not make the wrong decision about this." Meng Yue whispered before she turned around and continued on her way to search for other interesting playmates.
It could faintly be seen that the black-haired fox girl was different from the other Apex Predator Level foxes in the Qing Qiu Faction.
The foxes in Qing Qiu Faction might be geniuses, but many of their ideas were too radical to be accepted by everyone.
If the Tu Shan Faction were the foxes with a normal way of thinking who wanted to develop steady step by step, then the Qing Qiu Faction were a bunch of mad foxes who wanted to go against the sky in one step.
So, it was not strange that the foxes in Tu Shan Faction did not get along well with the foxes in Qing Qiu Faction, and they went on separate ways.
.....
Of course, whether it was the Tu Shan Faction or the Qing Qiu Faction, both of them had nothing to do with Tang Li Xue at this point.
Tang Li Xue had already landed on the other floating island near the previous floating island along with Little Loki.
Both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki also secretly witnessed the black-haired fox girl show her might and seal the entire floating island in one move.
"d.a.m.n it~! That was a really close one~! If we decided to wait until the new pillar of golden light sp.a.w.ned on that floating island, we might have already been sealed by that black-haired fox girl too~!" Tang Li Xue murmured with a trembling voice as she wiped the non-existent cold sweat on her furry forehead with her paw.
Little Loki frowned a bit as it informed Tang Li Xue: "Meoow Mew Nyaww~! (That girl smells almost the same as the previous black fox~!)"
Tang Li Xue nodded and replied: "I see... So, that black-haired fox girl is the master of the black fox, and she makes a move to avenge the black fox's death."
Tang Li Xue felt lucky that the black-haired fox girl did not have any clue about the black fox's death.
If the black-haired fox girl knew that the black fox died because of Tang Li Xue's vicious scheme and Little Loki's trick, she might decide to hunt down both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the cliff while shouting at Little Loki: "Let's go, Little Loki~! We better move on before that terrifying fox girl notices us~!"
Little Loki hastily caught up with Tang Li Xue, but it actually faintly sensed the familiar aura from that black-haired fox girl.
Yes, the abominable aura emitted by that black-haired fox girl actually resembles the horrifying monster in the previous treasure game.
'Was there any connection between them?' Little Loki thought silently in its heart.
Little Loki shook its tiny furry head as it thought that was not their business, so it decided to not delve further into it anymore.
After jumping down the cliff and crossing the river, they finally saw the pillar of golden light on this floating island.
"Thankfully, the treasure game on this floating island has not started yet, or we would need to head to another floating island again~!" Tang Li Xue sighed in relief.
This time, Tang Li Xue no longer hesitated and immediately activated [Wings of Freedom] buff.
Tang Li Xue brought Little Loki to fly to the pillar of golden light with breakneck speed!
But just like in the previous treasure games, there was actually someone who launched an ambush attack on Tang Li Xue right before she almost reached the pillar of golden light!
Countless rattans rushed toward the sky and bound Tang Li Xue's silver furry figure all of a sudden who was flying so fast on the sky!
Even Tang Li Xue in [Wings of Freedom]'s buff effect did not have any time to react at all!
"This d.a.m.n bast*rd~!" Tang Li Xue cursed in anger as she tried to struggle with all of her strength to free herself from the rattan's bind.
However, Little Loki who sat on the top of Tang Li Xue's head had already reacted faster and used its [Scythe Claw Qi] to cut all the rattans to free Tang Li Xue.
The wood-controlling fox did not plan to let Tang Li Xue go that easily!
The countless rattans combined into several dozens of wooden sharp spears under its control, and they stabbed at Tang Li Xue from all directions!
Tang Li Xue hastily summoned out a pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] plus a giant broadsword condensed with [Energy Manipulation]~!
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
A pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] held the giant broadsword tightly and spun around wildly with great force!
The several dozen wooden sharp spears were either getting cut or burned by the pair of [Sun Dragon Claws]'s Repelling Spins attack!
Even though Tang Li Xue seemed to hold an advantage in this battle, but she did not want to waste too much of her time fighting against this wood-controlling fox.
Tang Li Xue quickly put Little Loki into her System's pet s.p.a.ce and flew swiftly into the pillar of the golden light before the wood-controlling fox could launch another attack on her!
.....
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and found herself locked up inside a metal cage.
Tang Li Xue's mouth twitched violently in displeasure as her hunch told her that this might be another troublesome treasure game.
As usual, there was a countdown timer on the wall behind her.
[2733]...
[2732]...
[2731]...
[2730]...
"So, the treasure game will begin in around 45 minutes, huh..." Tang Li Xue muttered as she took out Little Loki and Yaya from her system's pet s.p.a.ce.
Yaya lazily stretched her body since she had just woken up from deep sleep, then she flew toward Tang Li Xue and gave Tang Li Xue a lot of morning kisses... Well, although it was not morning anymore right now.
Tang Li Xue felt ticklish and laughed as she patted at Yaya's tiny head with her paw.
Time pa.s.sed very quickly while Tang Li Xue played around and teased Yaya and Little Loki.
After the countdown timer reached zero, a string of words about the rules of the current treasure game appeared on the wall.
[Our Fox Clan might not be the strongest beast, but we should have high survivability and always be able to adapt in any situation.]
[As the most favorite pet for the human race because of our unmatched elegance and beauty, we might get caught at any time by humans.]
[Your task right now is to escape before they can bring you into the imperial palace.]
[The first fox who successfully got out from the human city will be the winner of this treasure game.]
[The Human Race might be detestable and untrustworthy, but they are not weak! Never look down on them in any situation or you will be the unlucky one! Good luck, fox cubs~!]
After reading the current treasure game's rules, Tang Li Xue muttered while thinking: "The rules are not complicated. In short, I only need to escape from this cage before they bring me into the imperial palace. I will win the treasure game after I get out of this city safely."
With her sharp sense of hearing, Tang Li Xue judged that they were actually inside the carriage, and this carriage should be heading to the imperial palace right now.
So, she must escape from here before this carriage reaches the imperial palace!
But Tang Li Xue immediately realized a fatal problem!
This metal cage actually sealed her vitality energy, so she could not use any of her divine abilities!
"What a troublesome setting is this~!" Tang Li Xue muttered while taking a deep breath to calm down.
While she tried to think of a way to get out of this sealing cage...
BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue suddenly heard an explosion from outside the carriage!
