Chapter 682 Chapter 682: Got Completely Exposed!
Tang Li Xue was dumbfounded by the elegant fox lady's sudden request, but she did not dare to question it.
Tang Li Xue followed the elegant fox lady's request, she told the part of the story about the Seventh Princess with more specific and detail while secretly observing the elegant fox lady's expression.
The scene in front of them showed how Tang Li Xue gallantly saved the cute Seventh Princess from the thugs...
Then she brought Little Seventh to eat at the restaurant only to get attacked by so many assassins...
But because there were too many assassins chasing after her, Tang Li Xue had no choice other than to split up with Little Seventh and use herself as a decoy to attract all of those assassins...
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue got trapped in the powerful formation later, and she even almost got caught by those assassins if not for the three teachers who came on time to help her and finished off all of those assassins in an instant...
After that, she managed to come back safely to Myriad Foxes Academy under the escort of the three teachers....
Tang Li Xue concluded her story, but she was a bit disappointed since she could not see any reaction from the elegant fox lady's expression.
Tang Li Xue was very curious about the elegant fox lady's previous request, so she decided to be brave once more and asked: "Excuse me, Miss Bookkeeper... Did something happen to Little Seventh?"
"After I returned to Myriad Foxes Academy with my three teachers, I tried to ask if Little Seventh got back to her home safely to my [Wind Riding Bird], but its reaction was strange as if it did not understand what was I talking about. It was like it had never seen or even known Little Seventh at all." Tang Li Xue explained to the elegant fox lady in puzzlement.
The elegant fox lady did not immediately answer Tang Li Xue's question.
She stared at Tang Li Xue for a few moments with an amused smile on her charming face as if she was trying to gauge something from Tang Li Xue.
Then she shook her head and replied: "You do not need to worry. Your Little Seventh is still alive right now. I guarantee that she is also safe, healthy, and lives very happily at this moment."
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after she heard the elegant fox lady's reassuring words.
Tang Li Xue was always very worried that Little Seventh had already been caught by those assassins, and she might get tortured by those assassins to extract any information about Tang Li Xue from her.
"Thankfully Little Seventh also managed to survive the pursuit of those assassins..." Tang Li Xue muttered at ease.
The elegant fox lady giggled when she heard Tang Li Xue's words and asked: "I really don't know anymore if you are lucky or unlucky, but it no longer matters right now... Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Tang Li Xue was puzzled by the elegant fox lady's comment, but she quickly shook her head as she did not have any more questions to ask.
Tang Li Xue stood up from her seat as she gave back the Story Book to the elegant fox lady.
Just when Tang Li Xue bowed politely at the elegant fox lady and turned around, the elegant fox lady suddenly called her again: "Wait a minute..."
The elegant fox lady waved her right hand and another book flew from the bookshelves onto her hand, then she tore two pages from that book.
But the two pages in that book regenerated back to usual in the blink of an eye.
The elegant fox lady let go of the book from her grasp, and it flew by itself back to the bookshelves.
The elegant fox lady folded up those two pages and shoved them onto?Tang Li Xue's hand: "You can open these two pieces of paper after you go back home."
Tang Li Xue glanced at the two pieces of paper on her palm and stared at the elegant fox lady in confusion.
The elegant fox lady chuckled and said again to Tang Li Xue: "Take it, Little One~! Just think of them as my reward for taking your time to tell me such an interesting story."
Tang Li Xue secretly pouted her mouth in disappointment.
'At least reward me with something I urgently need like credit...' Tang Li Xue thought in her mind.
The elegant fox lady giggled in amusement as she asked: "Are you sure you want to exchange them with credit?"
Tang Li Xue's body stiffened again in horror.
"Ah, no~! Thank you very much Miss Bookkeeper for your reward~! Goodbye~!" Tang Li Xue replied as she hastily ran away from the elegant fox lady.
"Wait..." The elegant fox lady stopped Tang Li Xue for the second time.
Tang Li Xue's back and forehead were soaked with cold sweat. She gritted her teeth as she turned around and bowed her head to apologize: "I am very sorry, Miss Bookkeeper~! I really do not mean to offend..."
The elegant fox lady immediately interrupted and said while pointing her slender finger in another direction: "You are going in the wrong way. The exit is that way."
"Eh? Ohh... right... I am sorry..." Tang Li Xue blushed in embarrassment, and her charming face turned completely red like a prawn.
Tang Li Xue did not even dare to look at the elegant fox lady as she quickly ran in the direction that the elegant fox lady pointed to.
After Tang Li Xue's figure disappeared from there, the elegant fox lady could no longer hold on and laughed while saying: "What an interesting little one~!"
The elegant fox lady thought for a while as a thick suspicion flickered in her eyes.
She waved her hand and called another book from the bookshelves into her grasp.
When she opened the book in her grasp, the scene inside the picture in the book was moving extremely fast as if she was watching a movie on TV at a fast-forward pace.
If Tang Li Xue saw the scene in this book, she might be extremely surprised since the scene in the book was actually her journey in the Fox Hunting Festival from start to finish.
The elegant fox lady sighed in relief as she closed the book again.
The elegant fox lady smiled brightly while muttering with an amused tone: "A newborn Taotie cub who is as close as life and death companions with a mere fox cub... This is truly fascinating~! I really wonder if this is a blessing or curse for my Fox Clan~?"
"If that fox cub can really tame Taotie cub, then there is no doubt that my Fox Clan's future will be very bright. We may even have a chance to contend as the true overlord of this Immortal World in the future." The elegant fox lady excitedly added.
But she quickly calmed down again after a few moments.
Four Evil Fiend Beasts were the absolute taboo in any realm and world.
They were the true harbingers of disaster and destruction.
The risk of taming and raising Taotie cub was too high for their Fox Race to bear.
Even if that fox cub really managed to tame and raise the Taotie cub later in the future, it still could not be shown in front of the others or their Fox Clan would need to face the prosecution of the entire world.
The elegant fox lady pondered carefully for a while and murmured softly: "Should I tell this to 'Chessmaster'?"
However, the elegant fox lady quickly shook her head to deny the idea.
The elegant fox lady, as the 'Bookkeeper' of the Fox Clan, always believed that every creature has their own fate, and she prefers to let nature take its own course.
But the 'Chessmaster' of the Fox Clan always wanted to let everything under its control.
There was no doubt that the 'Chessmaster' would never let an unstable factor with extremely high risk like a newborn Taotie cub stay in their Fox Clan.
The elegant fox lady dares to bet that the 'Chessmaster' would definitely make a swift move to kill both the newborn Taotie cub and that fox cub to eliminate all threats to Fox Clan.
The elegant fox lady let the book about Tang Li Xue's participation in the Foxes Hunting Festival fly back into the bookshelves.
But she waved her hand and sealed the book about Tang Li Xue's story in Inheritance Ground Tablet with a tight chain.
The Story Book flew swiftly from the elegant fox lady's hand toward the deepest part of the library.
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!
One of the bookshelves moved and the sealed Story Book entered the secret basement under it.
The sealed Story Book flew into the dark room beneath the secret basement and hovered along with the other hundreds of sealed books stored inside there.
The dark room was placed inside many layers of highly advanced formation, and even the elegant fox lady herself could not break into it in a short time.
Of course, if she wanted to see any sealed books, she could just call them out from that place easily since she was the one and only 'Bookkeeper' of the Fox Clan.
The bookshelf was moved again to its previous location and the secret basement was blocked once more like before.
After putting away that sealed Story Book in the safest place, the elegant fox lady shook her head while chuckling in irony as she said: "But the luck of that fox cub is really strange."
"Her luck should be extremely bad since she met with Taotie Cub and Seventh Princess of the Undead Race..."
"But if her luck is extremely bad, then how could she have Taotie Cub as her companion pet, and befriended with the Seventh Princess of the Undead Race?!"
Everything that happened to Tang Li Xue was so contradictory that the elegant fox lady could no longer judge it anymore.
The elegant fox lady rubbed her forehead in confusion.
That was the reason why she told Tang Li Xue: 'I really don't know anymore if you are lucky or unlucky.'
Honestly, if Tang Li Xue did not help the Seventh Princess at that time, the elegant fox lady could clearly guess that the Seventh Princess would surely kill everyone there including Tang Li Xue herself.
But because Tang Li Xue helped the Seventh Princess and managed to attract the Seventh Princess's interest, Tang Li Xue's life was finally spared.
At first, the elegant fox lady planned to tell the Seventh Princess's true identity to Tang Li Xue, but she decided to give up that intention in the end.
There was no guarantee that Tang Li Xue would not meet the Seventh Princess again in the future.
At least, if Tang Li Xue acted friendly to the Seventh Princess at that time because she still did not know the Seventh Princess's true identity, she might still have a chance to be spared again by the Seventh Princess.
