Chapter 674 Chapter 674: Rejection!
Tang Li Xue instantly pa.s.sed out right after she gulped down the precious resources stored inside the two treasure boxes.
The violent backlash from [War G.o.ddess Mode] kept ravaging Tang Li Xue's withered body when she was unconscious making her breath weaker and weaker.
Without her beast core and vitality energy, even her skills such as [High-Speed Regeneration] could no longer work to heal Tang Li Xue's body.
Although Tang Li Xue had already used [Greater Lucky Sticker], and she really hoped that a miracle would happen right at this moment, so she could at least go further in this Foxes Hunting Festival, but luck and miracles could only work within reasonable limits.
Currently, Tang Li Xue had not only lost her beast core and vitality energy, but she had also completely exhausted her Qi and mental energy after the continuous fierce battles against the khaki-colored fox, several Nascent Soul Stage Experts, and the wood-controlling fox.
Then she even had to suffer a violent backlash from [War G.o.ddess Mode] that was much fiercer than before since the Phoenix of Pride had already become a lot stronger.
When all of those factors were combined, even the buff from [Greater Lucky Sticker] could no longer help her out from her current dire situation.
Countless cracks started to spread on Tang Li Xue's entire body.
Just when Tang Li Xue's withered and cracked body almost shattered and turned into a group light... a radiant golden light suddenly covered her entire body!
"Sigh... Bad Silver Sister~! I already told you to never use it again before, but you still use it~!" The blue-haired little girl scolded while puffing her cheek cutely as she suddenly appeared right beside the dying Tang Li Xue.
The blue-haired little girl sat beside the unconscious Tang Li Xue and caressed Tang Li Xue's body gently while smiling playfully and said: "I wonder what I should do to punish you later~! Should I punish you by accompanying me until this festival is over?"
Under the nourishment from the radiant golden light, Tang Li Xue's withered and cracked body began to recover rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"All right, then I have already decided~! Silver Sister, you must stay by my side until the end of this festival, okay~?! Don't worry, I will protect you this time, so no one will dare to touch you anymore~!" The blue-haired little girl giggled happily.
But surprisingly, Tang Li Xue's body still transformed into a group of white light and dissipated after a few moments.
The blue-haired little girl widened her eyes in astonishment.
She frowned deeply and thought for a while before muttering in a dejected tone: "So, Silver Sister decided to refuse me in the end?"
However, Meng Yue immediately recovered as she giggled even more brightly, and said: "Interesting~! You are truly fascinating, Silver Sister~! I became even more curious about you~! I wonder what kind of secret you have that you are so afraid of me finding out, so you even decided to be eliminated instead of staying with me until the end of this festival?"
Meng Yue soared into the sky again while she spoke with a calm smile on her beautiful but immature face: "There is no need to hurry... I am sure we will certainly meet again soon enough, Silver Sister~!"
Meng Yue's figure disappeared once again as if she were only an illusion.
.....
Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes, and she found out that she had already come back to Instructor Mei Lan's Residence.
Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao had already impatiently waited for her to come back since long ago.
"Uwaaaa~! Little Xue~! You are finally back~!" Bingbing who was already in her human form exclaimed excitedly.
She quickly jumped toward Tang Li Xue who was still in her fox form and hugged her tightly.
Tang Li Xue laughed as she stared at Instructor Mei Lan with a relieved expression: "I am sorry to make all of you worry, but here I am back, everyone~!"
"Xue, I am also very worried and miss you very much~!" Hei Yinghao shouted as he also jumped to hug Tang Li Xue, but he only got kicked by Tang Li Xue instead as usual.
Instructor Mei Lan approached Tang Li Xue with her usual gentle smile on her face: "Welcome back, Little Xue~! It seems your harvest should be the most abundant among the others."
Tang Li Xue nodded while replying: "Well, my harvest is not bad... and I am ready to evolve to the next grade again. However, I need a few items to complete the requirements for my evolution. Instructor Lan, can you help me find them?"
"Eh? What? You are ready to evolve again?!" Instructor Mei Lan exclaimed as she widened her eyes in shock and disbelief.
"You... you are not kidding me, right?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again with a solemn expression.
It was not that Instructor Mei Lan did not believe Tang Li Xue's words, but that was too unbelievable.
The other beasts needed hundreds of years and some of them even needed thousands of years to evolve to the next grade, but Tang Li Xue only evolved last year, and she said she was ready to evolve again soon!
In short, Tang Li Xue would evolve twice in less than two years!
That was clearly too mindblowing for any beasts to accept!
Tang Li Xue looked firmly at Instructor Mei Lan and nodded.
From Tang Li Xue's serious stare, Instructor Mei Lan finally knew that Tang Li Xue was not kidding or lying to her at all.
Instructor Mei Lan's expression became extremely solemn as she hastily warned Tang Li Xue and the others: "We must keep the matter about Tang Li Xue's evolution a secret, and no fifth foxes should know about it. Do you all understand?!"
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao felt confused by Instructor Mei Lan's sudden warning, but they still obediently nodded their heads in agreement.
Instructor Mei Lan sighed as she tried to explain to all of her students: "If Little Xue could really evolve twice in less than two years, it would become an extremely huge matter since some beasts might think she has a treasure that can help the beast to evolve faster. Little Xue might fall into danger since someone would certainly covet it."
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao instantly understood Instructor Mei Lan's intention was to protect Tang Li Xue's safety.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled delightfully as she saw her three students had grown up a lot after partic.i.p.ating in this Foxes Hunting Festival.
"It is good if you all understand. You three can go home and take a rest for today." Instructor Mei Lan said to Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao, but she actually told Tang Li Xue alone to rest since Bingbing and Hei Yinghao had already returned a few days ago.
Tang Li Xue hastily went to the toilet in Instructor Mei Lan's Residence first to transform back into her human form.
Then she created a set of white clothes to wear with her [Energy Manipulation].
After that, the trio Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Hei Yinghao bid farewell to Instructor Mei Lan and head back to the Residential Building together.
But before that, Instructor Mei Lan told Tang Li Xue to write what she needed for her evolution after taking enough rest and gave it to her tomorrow, so Instructor Mei Lan could help to look for them later.
On the way back to the Residential Building did not talk too much with Bingbing and Hei Yinghao since she was still lamenting her rejection of Meng Yue's help in the end.
Yes, Tang Li Xue actually regained her consciousness when Meng Yue used her power to recover Tang Li Xue's dying body.
Tang Li Xue never expected that the buff from [Greater Lucky Sticker] was so effective that it could even create a miracle just like that!
Unfortunately, she really could not accept Meng Yue's offer to accompany her until the end of the Foxes Hunting Festival, so she could only decide to reject Meng Yue's help, and finally, she got eliminated from the Foxes Hunting Festival.
At first, Tang Li Xue also wondered if she could just run away from Meng Yue after she completely recovered later on, but after pondering for a while, it seemed really impossible for her to do that.
Even when she was with Lei Qian'er before, Meng Yue could still easily catch both her and Lei Qian'er if she really wanted it.
In short, if she accepted Meng Yue's help and completely recovered, then she absolutely must stay with Meng Yue until the end of the Foxes Hunting Festival!
Just staying with Meng Yue for a while before had put a lot of pressure on her. She was really afraid that she would think about any of her secrets without realizing it, and Meng Yue would know them by reading her mind.
If she must stay by Meng Yue's side for a few more days, all of her secrets might really be completely uncovered by Meng Yue!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue thought that it would be better for her to just be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival earlier instead.
The true might of Heaven's Favored Child was not something she could even imagine after all.
Tang Li Xue regretfully sighed in her heart: 'It was really such a pity...'
She still felt really unwilling in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.
