Chapter 701 Chapter 701: Elder Yang's Suspicion!
Gu Shengxin smiled at Elder Yang and replied politely: "Oh, I see... It looks like this servant's character is not bad. Maybe what had happened to him and Ling'er before was just an accident."
Even Tang Li Xue's perfect copy glanced at Elder Yang in surprise since she never expected that Elder Yang would say something to help her out of this difficult situation.
Elder Yang chuckled when he saw the perfect copy's surprised expression and thought that this servant was quite cute even though his appearance was only average at best.
Then Elder Yang suddenly woke up as he realized his own strangeness...
How could he think that a mere lowly male servant with average looks was cute?!
And he was usually indifferent and completely unconcerned about the others, so how could he always subconsciously help this servant every time he met with this servant?!
There was really something very strange here...
Elder Yang frowned deeply as he stared intensely at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy for more than one minute.
The perfect copy hastily looked away to avoid Elder Yang's intense stare since she was afraid that Elder Yang would find some clues about her true identity.
"Brother Sheng~!" Ling Shuang intimately shook Gu Shengxin's hand while sulkingly stomping her feet.
"Ling'er, even though this servant did something impolite to you, but he also helped you out of danger, so let's just make it even, okay?" Gu Shengxin said to comfort Ling Shuang as he gently patted her head.
Zhu Yan happily nodded her head and spoke to Gu Shengxin in delight: "Brother Gu is right~! I also think so~! Thank you very much for Brother Gu's kindness and generosity~!"
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy stared at Zhu Yan's fawning and delighted expression in disbelief.
'Don't tell me this girl still thinks that Gu Bast*rd say something like that to stand up for her?! This girl is already truly hopeless!' The perfect copy thought in disappointment.
She had heard that when any girl was completely blinded by love, even a cow dung would become more beautiful than the flower in her eyes.
At first, Tang Li Xue thought it was only nonsense, but who knew that the undeniable proof was right in front of her eyes right now?!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy shook her head as she thought that her current task might be much more difficult than she had ever imagined before.
In a condition blinded by love like this, it was natural for her to return here again after the previous fox team had forcefully kidnapped her and sent her back to her home.
'Sigh... It seems I must tell this to Instructor Lan and the others later, so we can discuss it and make new plans as soon as possible.' The perfect copy decided in her heart.
"Young Master Gu, I have an unkind request for you." Elder Yang suddenly muttered to Gu Shengxin.
Gu Shengxin smiled kindly at Elder Yang and replied: "I wonder what is Elder Yang's request? I will certainly try to do my best to fulfill it."
"I think this servant is quite resourceful and quick-witted. Can you place this servant at my place? I think he might be able to help me a lot later." Elder Yang blatantly told his request to Gu Shengxin.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy widened her eyes in shock and disbelief as she was caught completely off guard by Elder Yang's sudden request.
She hastily shook her head to refuse it, but unfortunately, no one really cared about her opinion at all this time...
Gu Shengxin laughed and nodded his head as he offered: "No problem. That is such a simple thing to do. If Elder Yang wants it, I can add more maids and servants to serve you. How about it?"
Elder Yang quickly shook his head to refuse it and replied: "Thank you very much for your kindness and generosity, but I like tranquility the most. This one quick-witted servant is already more than enough to help me."
"All right, I get it!" Gu Shengxin said to Elder Yang with a polite smile on his handsome face.
But when Gu Shengxin faced Tang Li Xue's perfect copy, his expression changed into indifferent and stern as he instructed with a hint of threat in his tone: "From now on, you will follow Elder Yang. Remember to serve him well or you will not only lose your hand this time!"
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy quickly lowered her head, but her eyes were actually filled with anger.
'Serve your mom~! Without your Gu Family background, what can a pampered young master like you do?!' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy complained in anger as she resisted the urge to raise her middle finger to Gu Shengxin.
While Elder Yang still secretly stared at Tang Li Xue's perfect copy with a pair of eyes filled with suspicion.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue had just gone back to her inn room with Yaya and Little Loki after they had eaten their breakfast until they were full.
Currently, she was fiddling with the [Key of Undead's Glory] and accidentally found another interesting feature of it.
"What an interesting treasure~! No wonder it could be ranked in the Heavenly Treasure Ranking List~!" Tang Li Xue muttered in amazement.
Tang Li Xue threw the [Key of Undead's Glory] and then...
SHRINGGGG~!
Its form actually transformed from a scepter to a sword!
Tang Li Xue caught it again and skillfully waved it around while executing a sword technique using it.
[Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins~!
Tang Li Xue took a circular step as she spun her slender body and slashed the black sword in her grasp several times!
After testing the [Key of Undead's Glory] in sword form, Tang Li Xue nodded in satisfaction. Even a dazzling delightful smile on her stunningly beautiful face could not hide her happiness.
She thought this [Key of Undead's Glory] could only be used as a staff, but who knew that it could be transformed into another weapon?!
CLANG~!
The [Key of Undead's Glory] transformed again into a black spear this time... Then a black shield, a huge black axe, and a huge black hammer, finally transformed back into a scepter.
Well, that was all...
According to Tang Li Xue's experiment, the [Key of Undead's Glory] could transform into six forms in total: wand form, sword form, spear form, shield form, axe form, and hammer form.
Maybe it had more than those six forms, but Tang Li Xue currently was only able to use those six forms.
When Tang Li Xue recalled that she used this [Key of Undead's Glory] in the wand form as a sword, she could not help but feel really embarrassed right now.
"Humph~! It was all because that Evil Ghost Emperor did not tell me anything about this feature before~!" Tang Li Xue stated in a resentful tone.
"But I wonder why he renamed this [Key of Undead's Glory] into [Scepter of Disaster] when this thing clearly has more forms than a mere scepter?" Tang Li Xue muttered with a curious tone.
"Oh, well... Maybe that cunning Evil Ghost Emperor wants to fool his enemies into thinking that he is only a summoner, then when his enemies try to assassinate him up close, he will use the other weapon transformations to counter-kill all of them." Tang Li Xue imagined in her mind.
Then Tang Li Xue realized that her previous sword technique demonstration actually cut the entire furniture in her room into pieces, she immediately regretted it very much as she muttered in frustration: "Instructor Lan will surely get angry at me again..."
Her mood became even worse when she read the information from her perfect copy's mind.
"What the heck is that Playboy Yang doing?! Tsk~! It would be bad if he discovered our identity, so you better be more careful from now on!" Tang Li Xue warned her perfect copy with a stern tone through their mind connection.
"I know~! But this is really not my fault, okay?! Moreover, that annoying Playboy Yang is always staring suspiciously at me! At this rate, I will not be able to move around freely from now on!" The perfect copy groaned in dissatisfaction.
Tang Li Xue rubbed her forehead in frustration while thinking about her next move carefully.
To be honest, Elder Yang's unexpected interruption really messed up their infiltration plan.
At first, Tang Li Xue planned for her perfect copy to get closer to Zhu Yan and find out if she was truly the Sea Beast Princess Yan Fei that they had been looking for.
After making sure of that, they could move on to their next plan to make her hate Gu Shengxin and then bring her back to her home later.
Who knew that Elder Yang actually asked Gu Shengxin so Tang Li Xue's perfect copy must serve Elder Yang instead from now on?!
"What if we just tell our true identity honestly to Elder Yang and ask him to help us instead? I think the chances of him helping us willingly should be quite high, right?" Her perfect copy suggested.
