Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 622: Dangerous Hidden Passage!



Chapter 622: Dangerous Hidden Passage!

Yaya nodded obediently to Tang Li Xue as ever, while Little Loki yawned nonchalantly as usual.

Tang Li Xue secretly followed the black-clothed people and the amber-colored fox from behind while maintaining her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], so those people could not detect her at all.

Those black-clothed people from the Joyous Eternal Cult were extremely cruel and merciless. They slaughtered every guard, maid, and servant they had met on their way.

But after anyone got killed, they immediately turned into a group of white light and dissipated to nothingness, so the rooms and corridors in the main residence still remained spotless as before.

After they reached the luxurious bedroom located at the center of the main residence, they immediately dispersed, then touched and groped every item in the main residence as if they were looking for something.

Tang Li Xue peeked at black-clothed people's suspicious movements from the gap of the window, and her suspicion grew even stronger.

"What are they doing? Are they looking for something important? Don't tell me... Woah, are they really looking for the City Lord's precious treasures?!" Tang Li Xue muttered softly with an excited tone. Even her solemn expression bloomed into a bright smile of joy.

However, Tang Li Xue's excited smile did not last long, and her expression turned solemn again as she silently thought: 'But so what~?! With our current strength, we would still not be able to compete with them either to get the City Lord's precious treasures or those kidnapped foxes, unless...'

A light of inspiration flashed in Tang Li Xue's mind as her solemn expression changed into an evil sly sneer.

Even Yaya and Little Loki felt uncomfortable when they saw Tang Li Xue's sneer.

Tang Li Xue did not have time to pay attention to Yaya and Little Loki's reaction as she hastily created a small solid tablet with her [Energy Manipulation].

Then she took out her golden [Inscription Pen] from her system's storage and used it to write something on the solid tablet.

Tang Li Xue held Little Loki gently and gave the small solid tablet to it while saying to it with her telepathy: "Little Loki, you hold this tablet first."

Little Loki hugged the small solid tablet that was as big as its tiny body and stared at Tang Li Xue with a confused look.

Tang Li Xue smiled at Little Loki and explained: "I have a simple task for you to do..."

Tang Li Xue lifted Little Loki closer to her and explained her plan to Little Loki.

Little Loki finally understood what Tang Li Xue wanted to do and nodded its tiny furry head in agreement.

Little Loki jumped out from Tang Li Xue's warm embrace and landed gracefully on the floor, then it dashed swiftly until it turned into a black flash.

"Hey, Little Loki~! Don't forget to only use your clone-type divine ability to give that tablet to them~! Do you understand~?!" Tang Li Xue warned Little Loki through their mental connection.

"Nya Nyaaaw~! (I know~!)" Little Loki lazily replied to Tang Li Xue.

While Tang Li Xue prepared her plan with Little Loki, the black-clothed people had already found a secret mechanism to open the secret passage.

One of the black-clothed people pulled one of the books from the bookshelf in the right corner of the luxurious room, while the other person carefully rotated a flower vase in the left corner.

CLACK~!

Finally, they heard a loud clicking sound and the ground started to tremble a little as the bookshelf was slowly opened like a gate.

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

'Woah~! There is really a hidden passage in this room~!' Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in surprise and disbelief.

Tang Li Xue was overreacting like this because she had already searched this luxurious room several times before in order to find the clue about the kidnapped foxes, but she failed to find anything useful here.

Who knew that there was actually a hidden passage leading to the secret treasure chamber in this luxurious room?!

Even Yaya had also become extremely curious and excited right after she saw an unexpected hidden passage suddenly revealed in front of her.

But just when Yaya wanted to follow them and fly swiftly to enter the hidden passage, Tang Li Xue hastily pulled her back and said: "Wait, Yaya~! It is too dangerous for us to follow them further, so we will only wait for them here."

Yaya cutely puffed her cheek and pouted in dissatisfaction.

Tang Li Xue laughed at Yaya's cuteness and gently patted her tiny head to comfort her.

Actually, Tang Li Xue was also very eager to follow them into the secret passage, but according to her experience in playing countless RPG games, there should be many dangerous traps inside the hidden passage leading to the treasure room.

It was too dangerous for her and Yaya to follow those black-clothed people further since they might accidentally trigger dangerous traps and drag her and Yaya into danger with them.

Moreover, there was also a certain chance that she and Yaya might also get caught by those black-clothed people and used as cannon fodder to open the way.

dαsvel.cοm

Anyway, it did not make sense for her and Yaya to follow them into the hidden passage full of dangers since she only needed to wait patiently for them to get those precious treasures, and she could just rob those precious treasures from them after they got out from there.

.....

Just like what Tang Li Xue had guessed, the hidden passage was really full of dangerous traps.

When the people of the Eternal Joyous Sect and the amber-colored fox stepped into the dark hidden passage, the torches on the right and left sides of the hidden passage were lit by themselves.

Those torches were not dangerous, but the amber-colored fox's extremely sharp nose instantly smelled something faintly unpleasant.

"Watch out~! There is poisonous gas here~!" The amber-colored fox warned as it hastily held its breath.

Because of its sudden warning, the leader of the Eternal Joyous Sect lost his focus for a moment as he also immediately held his breath, but he accidentally stepped on a tile until it sunk deep and triggered the surrounding trap.

SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~! SWOOSH~!

Hundreds of poisonous arrows were shooting from all directions in that instant!

The Eternal Joyous Sect's people rapidly swung the weapons in their hands to parry or block the poisonous arrows!

Unfortunately, the poisonous arrows were too many and the hidden passage was too narrow for them to move or swing their weapons around freely, so some of Eternal Joyous Sect's people failed to block the poisonous arrows and turned into hedgehogs by those poisonous arrows.

"Don't stop~! Run forward quickly~!" The leader of the Eternal Joyous Sect shouted while he suddenly spun around his body. His spiritual Qi spread and created a momentary barrier to protect all of his people from the poisonous arrows.

After sprinting forward as fast as they could for one hundred meters or so, they finally managed to get out from the shooting area of the poisonous arrows.

But the Eternal Joyous Sect's leader lost four of his elite subordinates at the Core Formation Stage.

The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader grimaced in anger and regret, then he glared at the amber-colored fox with a pair of eyes filled with killing intent.

"You damn beast~! Why did you not warn us about the poisonous gas and poisonous arrows earlier?! And why did you not help block those poisonous arrows?!" The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader shouted angrily at the amber-colored fox.

The amber-colored fox rolled its eyes and replied in a flat tone without any sense of guilt: "I am sorry, leader. But I really did not realize them until we entered deeper into the hidden passage before."

For the amber-colored fox, the more people from the Eternal Joyous Sect died in the way, the greater its chance to grab the City Lord's precious treasures later.

So, of course, the amber-colored fox would not really warn these Eternal Joyous Sect's people about the danger.

However, the Eternal Joyous Sect's leader clearly did not believe the amber-colored fox's meaningless excuse at all.

If the amber-colored fox really did not realize the previous dangers, how could it have enough time to use its flames to protect all of those kidnapped foxes from the poisonous arrows before?!

The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader really wanted to tear the amber-colored fox to pieces so badly right now, but he could only swallow his anger for now, because he still needed the amber-colored fox's treasure-sensing type divine ability to sense the location of the City Lord's precious treasures.

The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader clenched his palm tighter to hold down his anger as they continued their way.

After carefully proceeding for another fifty meters or so without meeting any danger, they arrived at the stone stairs.

The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader led them down the stone stairs, but suddenly, there were huge sharp blades stabbed from above the stairs!

The Eternal Joyous Sect's leader quickly raised the sword in his grasp to block one of the huge sharp blades!

CLAAAAAANG~!

The amber-colored fox hastily led the kidnapped foxes to stick closer to the wall without saying anything, while the Eternal Joyous Sect's people were busily blocking the huge sharp blades from above!

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

When no one realized it, an enormous steel ball covered with sharp spikes appeared all of a sudden and rolled down with lightning speed!

"AAAAAARRRGGGHHH~!" Some people from the Eternal Joyous Sect screamed in pain when they were run over mercilessly by the enormous steel ball covered with sharp spikes!

The sharp spikes on the enormous steel ball easily pierced through their bodies like paper and killed them almost instantly!

The eyes of Eternal Joyous Sect's leader turned red in anger and resentment.

He roared out loud and threw an extremely powerful punch to the enormous steel ball!

BOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!

The enormous steel ball was shattered to pieces by the Eternal Joyous Sect's leader, but the countless sharp shards from the enormous steel ball were scattered and shot in all directions!
