Chapter 736 Chapter 736: Everything is a Lie!
?When Tang Li Xue's perfect copy and Little Loki almost reached Zhu Yan's courtyard, Little Loki actually still looked in the direction where it had mistakenly run before from time to time.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy frowned deeply in worry, and she decided to ask Little Loki: "What is wrong, Little Loki? Is there something dangerous for us coming from that direction?"
Little Loki turned around gracefully and replied to Tang Li Xue's perfect copy: "Nyaw Meow Mew Nyaow~!" (I smell a lot of delicious things from that direction ~!)
Delicious things for Little Loki were undoubtedly precious treasures!
The eyes of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy were s.h.i.+ning in excitement as if a mountain of spirit stones was waving at her and calling her to come in that direction when she heard it.
But Tang Li Xue's perfect copy hastily shook her head to clear her mind from any greedy thought as she muttered: "No, my top priority right now is to convince Zhu Yan and bring her out of this place as soon as possible! I clearly cannot put Zhu Yan's life in danger just for my selfish desire!"
Little Loki became more anxious when it heard Tang Li Xue's perfect copy rejected its temptation, so it added a few more words: "Meow Mew Miaw Nyeow~!" (But I smell treasures containing star energy from there!)
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief as she exclaimed in an excited tone: "Treasures containing star energy?! Really?!"
Tang Li Xue or her perfect copy might be able to resist the temptation of spirit stones, but the treasures containing star energy were a completely different matter.
Because Tang Li Xue had already fulfilled all of the requirements to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox], except for one, which was consuming precious treasures that contained star energies until the star energies stored in her body reached more than 999!
If she could obtain enough precious treasures containing star energy here, then she would be able to evolve into [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox] anytime anywhere she wants!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth in dilemma, but before she could decide it...
The real Tang Li Xue had already activated the [Swap] skill to exchange her location with her perfect copy.
After that, the real Tang Li Xue un-summoned her perfect copy, then used her [Twin Moons] divine ability again to re-summon her perfect copy right in front of her, so both of them were currently inside Gu Family's Mansion right now.
"Isn't it too dangerous for us to do it so blatantly like this?!" The perfect copy asked with a worried tone.
The perfect copy's worry was not groundless since the risk of them getting caught was really high like this!
Moreover, they might not be able to escape as easily as before since both of them were currently inside the Gu Family's Mansion right now.
The real Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a serious tone: "The risk might be high, but it would be completely worth it if we can get our hands on the precious treasures containing star energy."
It was already too late for them to regret since both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were already here, so the perfect copy could only agree with the real Tang Li Xue's decision.
Tang Li Xue immediately activated her [Ethereal From], and her slender body turned invisible, then she followed her perfect copy and Little Loki closely from behind.
After Tang Li Xue and Little Loki escorted the perfect copy into Zhu Yang's courtyard, both Tang Li Xue and Little Loki hastily headed to the direction where the Gu Family stored their precious treasure.
Of course, there were many kinds of other formations blocking their way, but Little Loki easily broke through all of them using its [Heaven's Devour].
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy did not immediately enter Zhu Yan's room but waited patiently until the real Tang Li Xue and Little Loki ran further from there.
At least, they would not get discovered and caught at the same time if the distance between them were far away.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy took a deep breath to prepare herself as she knocked on the door of Zhu Yan's room.
But Zhu Yan did not immediately open the door of her room. Maybe because she was already sleeping since it was midnight right now.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy did not give up and kept knocking on the door of Zhu Yan's room again and again while waiting patiently.
Even though she could just use her [Ethereal Form] to easily sneak into Zhu Yan's room, but she decided not to do it.
Well, not only it would be impolite, but Zhu Yan might become angrier at her if she did it that way. Zhu Yan might even think Tang Li Xue's perfect copy wanted to secretly kidnap her instead, and her impression of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy might deteriorate even further.
Clack~!
After waiting for a few more minutes, Zhu Yan finally opened the door of her room while muttering: "Who comes so late at night?"
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy hastily replied in a joyous tone: "It's me, Yan'er~!"
Zhu Yan's eyes turned red when she looked at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy who was dressed as a guard.
When Zhu Yan saw Tang Li Xue's perfect copy that was currently putting on the disguise of the previous male servant, Zhu Yan realized many things almost immediately.
After Zhu Yan found out that her brother Feng Bai was actually a fox, she still tried to convince herself that she and her brother Feng Bai were truly in love with each other.
But that hopeful thinking was truly shattered right now..
This fox clearly disguised as a servant or Brother Feng Bai to approach and deceive her, just so she would separate from Gu Shengxin!
As for the reason why Zhu Yan could deduce it...
Previously, the Fox Clan had already forcefully kidnapped her and brought her back home to the Sea Beast Kingdom, but she sneaked out again to be with Gu Shengxin.
So, the Fox Clan should have changed their strategy this time and sent this charming fox to seduce and deceive her instead, so she would break off with Gu Shengxin.
It was not that hard for Zhu Yan to guess it since Zhu Yan had already heard a lot about the Fox Clan from her family, especially about how the Fox Clan would do anything to complete their mission and obtain their reward.
"Hahaha... I am really so stupid for trying to believe you again and again." Zhu Yan laughed with an ironic tone while tears poured out of her eyes.
Zhu Yan felt her heart so hurt as if it was gouged out by a knife.
As a pampered Sea Beast Princess, no one dared to hurt or deceive her before, so this was her first experience feeling a terrible heartache like this.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy quickly entered Zhu Yan's room and closed the door as she tried her hardest to explain it: "I am really sorry for deceiving you, Yan'er... But I do it because I care about you! I do not want you to be with that jerk Gu Shengxin!"
Zhu Yan wiped her tears with her sleeve and glared at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy, then muttered in a cold and resentful tone: "Why? Just because you want the reward given by my father?! Brother Feng, you are so cruel. How could you play with my feelings just because of that?!"
The heart of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy instantly felt as if it was stabbed mercilessly by guilt.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she tried to convince Zhu Yan again: "Yan'er, I know how much you are disappointed and angry with me. But I dare to swear that I do it for your own good!"
"That Gu Shengxin is not a good person. He already did a lot of evil deeds. Moreover, he just lost his mother and little sister because of the Beast Tide. If he knows that you are not a human, he will surely make you suffer a terrible death!"
"So, please, Yan'er... You can hit or torture me to appease your anger and disappointment later, but you have to follow me out of this city as soon as possible before your true ident.i.ty is exposed to that Gu Shengxin." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy pleaded to Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan stared dully at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy and murmured: "Brother Feng, how many times you have lied to me? I bet no truth come out of your mouth until now, right? Not only your background but even your name and gender should be fake. With so many lies, how could I believe in any of your words again?!"
Zhu Yan took out something from her s.p.a.ce pouch.
It turned out to be a blue flower emitting mysterious light.
"Do you know what is this, Brother Feng?" Zhu Yan asked Tang Li Xue's perfect copy, but before Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could answer, Zhu Yan had already explained it.
"This flower is called Reminisce Flower. Not only it can improve one's memory after consuming it, but it can also record the scene around it and store it for a few days." Zhu Yan said as she tapped the flower petal.
Then the scene where Zhu Yan kissed several times with Tang Li Xue's perfect copy in the herb garden that night was playing like a movie recorder.
It was shown clearly that Tang Li Xue's perfect copy actually condensed a mouth mask to avoid direct kisses with Zhu Yan!
