Chapter 721 Chapter 721: Gu Shengxin’s True Face!
?Little Loki felt very sleepy because it was full, so it did not bother to care about Tang Li Xue’s mockery at all.
But Yaya was Tang Li Xue’s good girl, so she immediately flew unsteadily to Tang Li Xue, hugged her, and gave her a kiss with a pair of sleepy eyes.
Tang Li Xue chuckled as she returned Yaya by kissing Yaya’s forehead.
“All right, I know you already feel sleepy too. You can just go to sleep with Little Loki now.”?Tang Li Xue stated to Yaya as she put Yaya onto the bed.
At first, Tang Li Xue planned to bring Yaya and Little Loki to lease the cultivation cave and practice her Profound Law of Heat and Cold there as usual, but it seemed she could not do that today.
Tang Li Xue sat in a lotus position on her bed and decided to do some experiments by simultaneously practicing [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Manipulation].
When she tried to save her Xiao Hei before, [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula], [Essence Devouring Technique], and [Energy Manipulation] could actually resonate perfectly with each other as if they were blending into one mechanism.
Tang Li Xue did not dare to practice [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] carelessly since she had already learned her lesson from the previous incident, but practicing both [Essence Devouring Technique] and [Energy Manipulation] simultaneously should be all right.
That night, all the people who stayed in that inn and its surrounding could not sleep and shuddered in fear since all the surrounding spiritual energy was sucked dry by something mysterious.
Even the spiritual energy in the body of those people was slowly drained by that mysterious power!
It later became a horror story that the people who died so miserably on the battlefield went back to Garden City that night and haunted that area.
…..
The next morning, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy slowly opened her eyes, but her eyes instantly met with a pair of eyes that were staring intensely at her.
“UGYAAAAAAAAAA~!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy screamed in shock as she swiftly threw a random punch forward.
BAAAAANG~!
Fortunately, Elder Yang reacted quite fast and blocked the perfect copy’s punch with his palm before it could strike his face.
“Hey, calm down! You are already in a safe place.” Elder Yang said to appease Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy raised her body until she sat on her bed while looking around, and she found herself in a familiar room.
Yes, she was actually in Elder Yang’s room right now!
“Why am I in your room? You did not do anything strange to me when I was sleeping, right?” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy glared suspiciously at Elder Yang while hugging her chest.
Elder Yang’s expression instantly turned dark after he heard the perfect copy’s questions.
“Xiao Bai, how could you look down on me so much like that?! Do I really look like that in your eyes?” Elder Yang asked in a displeased tone.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied: “Then why were your face so close to me as if you wanted to kiss me just now?!”
Elder Yang’s face blushed like a prawn since he was really almost tempted to steal a kiss from the sleeping Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy before.
Tang Li Xue’s previous kiss made him could not sleep last night, and he kept thinking about it until now.
But how could Elder Yang admit it, so he immediately tried to deny it: “I… I only try to guard you… and wait until you wake up to…”
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy did not bother to continue that topic as she asked again: “How about Zhu Yan? Is she all right?”
“She is all right. She and Young Master Gu should have already woken up earlier than you.” Elder Yang replied, but he still felt unhappy at the perfect copy’s previous accusation.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy sighed in relief after she heard that Zhu Yan was completely all right.
“Hey, this does not seem right… Why are you more worried about that woman than me? I am your ma~~umph…” Before Elder Yang could finish his words, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy hastily closed his mouth with the palm of her hands.
“Can you shut your mouth?! What if someone overheard your words and thought we were really in that kind of relationship?! You should know that I am a ‘man’ right now!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy scolded Elder Yang in a soft voice while gnashing her pearl-white teeth impatiently.
Elder Yang quickly shut his mouth after he heard the perfect copy’s warning.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy pulled her palm from Elder Yang’s mouth and rubbed her forehead to ease her headache.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy waved her right hand as she instantly created a transparent barrier using her [Energy Manipulation] to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on her next conversation with Elder Yang.
Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy could only explain her current mission to Elder Yang, so Elder Yang would not do something stupid to ruin her plan later.
Elder Yang frowned deeply after he heard the perfect copy’s mission to woo Zhu Yan and try to make Zhu Yan forget about Gu Shengxin.
Fortunately, the perfect copy’s mission was to woo a female, so Elder Yang could still barely accept it.
If the perfect copy’s mission was to woo a male instead, then Elder Yang would have already exploded in anger and jealousy as he would never allow her to do it, even though this was just Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.
Elder Yang nodded his head in agreement and said: “Okay, I will try to help you as much as I can from now on. But you better be much more careful around that Gu Shengxin.”
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy chuckled at Elder Yang and teased him: “Why? Will you be jealous if I get too close to that Gu Shengxin?”
Elder Yang chuckled as he replied: “Of course, I will be jealous if you get too close to another man other than me, but I warned you not only because of that.”
“Why do you think that Gu Shengxin can become a well-known one-in-thousand-years alchemist genius at such a young age? Do you really believe such bullshit like he has peerless talent in alchemist and so on?” Elder Yang asked Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy frowned deeply as she felt a bad feeling about what Elder Yang was going to tell her and asked back: “What do you mean?”
Elder Yang sneered coldly as he explained: “Gu Family and Alchemist Sect had secretly caught many wandering warriors and casual cultivators, then let Gu Shengxin use them as his living experiment.”
“Don’t look at his gentle handsome scholar-like look, the people who died in his hands might have already reached tens of thousands.” Elder Yang told Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy about Gu Shengxin’s information he knew.
“What?! You mean he actually dared to use so many living humans as experiments for the pills he concocted?!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
Elder Yang nodded as he gave another warning to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy: “If what you just say is true, and that Zhu Yan is really the Sea Beast Princess. Then you better move fast to woo her before Gu Shengxin finds out her true identity.”
“You should have already known that Gu Shengxin held so much hatred against Beast Race because he just lost his mother and little sister to the Beast Tide. If he somehow knows that Zhu Yan’s identity as the Sea Beast Princess…Then her next fate might be worse than death.” Elder Yang muttered to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy nodded to Elder Yang with a grim expression.
Previously, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy still had some hesitation because they actually did not want to separate the pair of lovers who loved each other.
But after hearing about Gu Shengxin’s true face from Elder Yang, Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy changed their mind since they were extremely sure right now that Zhu Yan or Princess Yan Fei would not be suitable with Gu Shengxin!
‘Damn it~! I never thought that Gu Shengxin was actually such a ruthless and vengeful person. This mission may not be as smooth as we imagine.’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy thought.
It was no longer about love or feeling anymore since Zhu Yan’s life would be in danger if Gu Shengxin found out her true identity!
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy could only hope that Zhu Yan would not do something rash like telling Gu Shengxin about her true identity later.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy decided to be more serious about wooing Zhu Yan, so she immediately went out of Elder Yang’s room and looked for Zhu Yan.
Elder Yang also worried about Perfect Copy’s safety since this place was Gu Shengxin’s home, so he decided to follow her to look for Zhu Yan together.
It did not take long for them to find Zhu Yan, and she was actually walking with Gu Shengxin and Ling Shuang.
In the end, they were heading together to the main hall to discuss their future plan against the Beast Tide.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from Immortal Sword Sect, Alchemist Sect, and Gu Family were already gathered in the main hall, while the rest of the Nascent Soul Stage elders were still recuperating in the closed training room.
