Chapter 312 Four Tasks To Do!
…..
After the people from the Lin Family and the Elder of Oracle Mountain Sect chatted with Tang Li Xue, Instructor Mei Lan, and the other for more than an hour, they escorted Tang Li Xue's group to their own respective room to rest.
But currently, Tang Li Xue was having a secret meeting with Instructor Mei Lan, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao in her room.
Instructor Mei Lan took a black pearl out from her space pouch and threw it upward.
The black pearl spun slowly on mid-air, and it started to shine with dim crimson light.
The dim crimson light covered the entire corner of Tang Li Xue's room.
Instructor Mei Lan sat on the seat at the center of the room and explained to all of her students: "This is a magic treasure called Prohibition Pearl. It can prevent anyone from eavesdropping on our conversation. You can talk and ask anything you want right now."
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as she slowly sipped her tea while waited for Tang Li Xue and the others to ask any questions to her.
Bing Yi and Hei Yinghao thought a bit about what they really wanted to ask Instructor Mei Lan, so Tang Li Xue took this opportunity to ask first.
"Instructor Lan, I know that there are two ways to break the array or formation. We can either forcefully break it with greater strength or find the eye core of the formation and destroy it. Is there a fast way to find the eye core of the formation?" Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a curious tone.
Instructor Mei Lan raised her eyebrow and asked back: "Aren't you manage to find the eye core of the golden barrier before? How do you find it?"
Tang Li Xue replied while blushed slightly: "That… I only find it by chance."
Instructor Mei Lan glanced at Little Loki, who lying down lazily on Tang Li Xue's right shoulder and thought: 'This cute little kitty is surprisingly very strict even to its master!'
Instructor Mei Lan smirked and explained: "The eye core of the formation is always at the center of that formation. If you draw a circle, then the midpoint of that circle is where the eye core is. I am not a Master Inscriptionist, so I only know that much."
"You should ask Sissy Wei to teach you more about array and formation later because that knowledge is very important for survival. You are lucky this time since the one who set the formation is completely amateur. If that Sissy Wei who set it, he would certainly place several eye core's dummies along with many dangerous traps. You will certainly die without knowing if you try to approach the eye of formation he set." Instructor Mei Lan concluded her explanation.
"Understood! But Instructor Lan, you said you do not know much about the formation, so how could you destroy the formation all this time?" Tang Li Xue asked again.
Instructor Mei Lan laughed at Tang Li Xue's silly question and replied with a leisure tone: "By force of course!"
Instructor Mei Lan raised her slender white palm and showed it to Tang Li Xue, then the air around her slender white palm started to vibrate violently.
Even with her [Extrasensory Perception], Tang Li Xue could barely sense anything other than the abnormal flow of air around Instructor Mei Lan's palm, but her heart somehow started to palpitate in fear.
'This should be her [Demonic Tune] divine ability, but Instructor Lan compressed its power to the extreme level. It makes the air around her palm vibrating so intensely… This technique works like a chainsaw… No, it should countless times more dangerous than a chainsaw. Extreme sharpness and intense vibration… Tsk, tsk, tsk… No wonder, she should be able to cut any protection barrier like soft tofu with that.' Tang Li Xue thought in awe.
"Instructor Lan, I always feel really strange. Why must we do something secretly like this? We must even hide our Myriad Foxes Academy at a place where any humans cannot find us. Are Human Race really that strong that we must fear them?" Hei Yinghao asked Instructor Mei Lan.
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head and answered: "The strength of Human Race is on par with the entire Beast Race. So if you ask, are the Human Race stronger than our Fox Race? Then yes, they are much stronger than our Fox Race alone."
Instructor Mei Lan glanced at Tang Li Xue and said: "Do you remember when I said your end will definitely be more miserable than that female lizard if any humans know about our identity? That is an empty warning at all. This is also related to the reason why our Fox Race needs to hide from Human Race."
Instructor Mei Lan smirked coldly and asked: "Do you know what beast race is the most sought after by the human race?"
Tang Li Xue loudly gulped her saliva in nervousness and murmured: "Is... Is it our Fox Race? Instructor Lan, you are really not pulling our legs, right? Are you only trying to scare us?"
"Unfortunately, this is the truth. Our Fox Race is the most wanted by Human Race since ancient times. Our tails can be made into longevity medicine to extend their lifespan. All of the female humans want to drink our blood to obtain everlasting beauty. Yet those are not the main reason why we became the most wanted race by Human Race." Instructor Mei Lan slowly explained.
Tang Li Xue also nodded her head in understanding and thought deeply.
Although those two effects were quite amazing, but many other items could achieve the same effects in this Immortal World.
"Is the reason... our beauty?" Bing Yi muttered.
Instructor Mei Lan nodded and replied: "Smart! That is correct! Our Race is known as the most beautiful Race. In fact, many of our Fox Race got caught by humans through history, and they were forced to marry the people in power like the king or emperor. That is the reason why they called the sexually attractive women as vixen now."
"They will cut all your tails and used it as longevity medicine. They will also drink your blood daily to maintain their young looks. While using your body to vent their lust every day… But you are not a human, so you do not have any right as a human. You are no more than pet or slave for them." Instructor Mei Lan patiently told to them.
"Thus, all of you must remember this well. If any human managed to find your identity as a fox, kill them as soon as possible, then erase all of your traces and tracks from there! Even if that human is kids, humans with mental illness, or mutes! No human could know about our identity as a fox!" Instructor Mei Lan reminded them with a stern tone once again.
Tang Li Xue, Hei Yinghao, and Bing Yi quickly nodded their head with serious expressions.
Instructor Mei Lan's serious expression turned back to her gentle smiling face when she saw all of her students understood her words.
Instructor Mei Lan laughed and said: "All right! Let's talk about our next task now! We have four tasks to do now, and we must finish them in the right order. I will explain it one by one and give some task to all of you."
"First, we must find the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual as soon as possible and take it into our grasp."
"Second, we have to make sure there is no copy from this half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual in the hands of Lin Family or Oracle Mountain Sect. If there are, then we must destroy it first."
"Third, we have to save that female lizard and bring it out from here without being noticed by anyone, then hand that female lizard back to the male lizard."
"Fourth, we have to make sure all the people here from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect died in the hand of Lizard Race without any survivor left."
Instructor Mei Lan stopped talking and stared at Tang Li Xue and others one by one, then asked: "Up to here, do you understand everything clearly?"
Tang Li Xue and the others obediently nodded their head, but Tang Li Xue immediately asked again: "Eh? We need to make all the people from Lin Family and Oracle Mountain Sect died here? Really? But… but there are some small children here!"
Instructor Mei Lan frowned deeply at Tang Li Xue's words and asked: "Little Xue, you are really weird… You know from the information we got that the Lin Family killed all the children of that female lizard, right?"
At first, Instructor Mei Lan thought that Tang Li Xue was only a naïve and innocent little fox which only need to be taught properly to understand everything clearly, but from Tang Li Xue's weird question just now, Instructor Mei Lan has a hunch that Tang Li Xue's world perception was really weird.
It was as if Tang Li Xue did not come from this world…
Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to drive away that ridiculous thought.
Tang Li Xue scratched her head and said in hesitation: "That… That is right… But…"
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and interrupted Tang Li Xue's words: "You do not need to worry about that since that is my task, not yours. We need more time to find the half of the Ancient Martial Art Manual here, so we need someone to keep those thirty giant lizards of Lizard Race busy for a while."
"Your task is to keep those thirty giant lizards busy until we finish the first two tasks, then you will do the third task while I, Bingbing, and Silly Fox, will do the fourth task." Instructor Mei Lan said nonchalantly.
Tang Li Xue sighed in relief and replied: "Oh… Sigh… So, I do not need to do that kind of cruel job…"
"Wait… what? Instructor Lan, what did you said I must do now?" Tang Li Xue jumped in shock and asked Instructor Mei Lan again.
Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently as usual and patted Tang Li Xue's left shoulder: "I believe you can do it! Good luck!"
