Reincarnated As A Fox With System

Chapter 1039: Chapter 1039: Jade Box Obtained!

Feng Shuang rolled her eyes displeasantly and said: "You are really... I just thought you got lost, so I wanted to help you. Whatever, I have an important task to do. I will not play around with you anymore."

When Feng Shuang mentioned about task, Little Loki also remembered its task to get the jade box from Xi’er.

Half of Feng Shuang’s figure blended with the shadow, but Little Loki suddenly jumped toward her, bit her collar, and pulled her out before she could completely submerge into the shadow.

"What are you doing?!" Feng Shuang was really confused by Little Loki’s behaviour.

"Nyaw meow meow! (Bring me to Xi’er!)" Little Loki tried to explain what it wanted with its body gestures.

After watching Little Loki make several funny gestures, Feng Shuang clapped her hands and exclaimed in understanding expression: "Okay, I understand!"

Little Loki nodded its head in satisfaction while thinking: ’This girl is not bad.’

Feng Shuang took out several foods from her space pouch and gave them all to Little Loki.

Little Loki: "?"

"So, you must be hungry, right? This is all the food I brought with me." Feng Shuang uttered to Little Loki.

Little Loki happily ate all the delicious food given by Feng Shuang with a blissful expression.

But after it finished all the food, Little Loki realized that this was not what it meant to say to Feng Shuang before!

Slap—!

Little Loki teleported right above Feng Shuang and slapped her face with its paw again.

"Ouch~! I swear that was all the food I brought with me. If you want to eat more, I will buy it for you later, okay?" Feng Shuang tried to persuade Little Loki with a wronged expression.

"Nyaw nyaw meoow~! Meew nyaaoow?! (That is not what I mean! How dare you tempt me with food?!)" Little Loki angrily growled at Feng Shuang.

"Err, you mean you want something else?" Feng Shuang asked in an unsure tone.

Little Loki tried to explain it again to Feng Shuang with its body gestures.

It looked adorable and cute, but Feng Shuang did not dare to laugh at Little Loki at all.

Feng Shuang: "Don’t tell me that you just want to take a dump?!"

Slap—!

Feng Shuang: "Are you thirsty? Do you want to drink something delicious?"

Slap—!

Feng Shuang: "I see, you definitely want to take a bath, right? Don’t worry, I will help you..."

Little Loki thought angrily: ’You pervert fox!’

Slap—! Slap—! Slap—! Slap—!

After getting slapped dozens of times, Feng Shuang finally managed to guess Little Loki’s intention correctly.

Feng Shuang escorted Little Loki to the inn where Xi’er’s group stayed tonight.

Knock, knock, knock—!

Feng Shuang jumped onto the second floor of the inn and knocked on the window of Xi’er’s room.

When Xi’er opened the window of her room, she almost launched an attack on Feng Shuang out of reflex.

Fortunately, Xi’er still managed to hold herself back and asked in a weird tone: "You are... Feng Shuang? What happened to your face?"

Yes, Feng Shuang’s face was swollen like a pig after being slapped by Little Loki dozens of times.

"Uhh, no... I just caught off guard when facing enemies and got ambushed by them." Feng Shuang told a lie in embarrassment.

"Nyaaaw~!" Little Loki jumped from behind Feng Shuang into Xi’er’s room through the open window.

"Okay, I still have an important task to do, so I’ll take my leave now." Feng Shuang stated to Xi’er before she blended with the shadow and went away from there swiftly, as if she was afraid that Little Loki would order her to escort it back to the palace later.

"Yaaa~!"

"Kweek~!"

Yaya and the shrunken Lucia happily flew toward Little Loki and greeted it.

"Ya yayaa yaa? (Is it fun in the palace?)" Yaya asked curiously.

Little Loki shook its head and replied: "Nyaow meow mew. (Nope, it is boring as ever.)"

Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia had lived in the palace before, when Tang Li Xue had not recovered yet.

But at that time, Tang Li Xue only allowed Little Loki to wander around the palace while Yaya and Lucia stayed in the System’s pet space in order not to attract any unwanted attention until Xi’er brought them out of the palace.

Neither Yaya nor Lucia knew much about anything inside the palace, so they were a bit curious about it.

Little Loki explained to Yaya and Lucia about the situation inside the palace.

There were so many guards patrolling inside the palace, and Spirit Transformation Grandmasters would scan the entire palace with their divine sense from time to time to prevent any spies or assassins from sneaking in, which made Little Loki feel stifled and restricted.

After chatting and playing around until they were satisfied, Yaya and Lucia fell asleep without realizing it.

Xi’er also finally took out the jade box from her space pouch and gave it to Little Loki.

Little Loki sucked the jade box into its mouth using [Temporal Space].

Then Little Loki nodded at Xi’er before it jumped out again from the window.

Xi’er closed the window and turned off the lamp, then pretended to sleep.

With an undead body as her vessel, Xi’er actually did not need to sleep at all, but there were so many suspicious people making their moves at night.

Xi’er did not dare to wander around in this tense situation, so she decided to gather information only during the day.

There were sounds of shouting and fighting on the street from time to time.

Xi’er could guess that it should be patrolling guards who were fighting with those suspicious people from an unknown background.

Xi’er did not bother to care about it.

Her task was to become Tang Li Xue’s ’eyes and ears’ outside the palace, not to play hero and help anyone fighting against injustice.

.....

...

.

Right at this time, Tang Li Xue was currently waiting worriedly inside her room for Little Loki to come back with the jade box.

Fortunately, it did not take that long for Little Loki to return.

Little Loki used [Instant Teleportation] and appeared on the top of the table inside Tang Li Xue’s room.

"Little Loki~!" Tang Li Xue happily hugged Little Loki.

Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after making sure that Little Loki was completely uninjured.

"Meeoow~!" Little Loki spat out the jade box onto the table.

Tang Li Xue released Little Loki from her embrace and grabbed the jade box, then opened it curiously.

The jade box was from Shao Ying, so Tang Li Xue did not worry at all that there would be a trap set inside the box.

"This is... What the heck is this?!" Tang Li Xue frowned when she checked the contents of the jade box.

The contents inside the jade box were actually crimson seeds.

"Are these... seeds?! What kind of seeds is this?" Tang Li Xue frowned as she examined the crimson seeds carefully.

The crimson seeds were a bit creepy, as if they were soaked in dried blood.

Tang Li Xue tried to sniff the crimson seeds, but she could not smell any scent of blood.

On the contrary, they actually smelled really nice.

But when Tang Li Xue thought about what kind of scent it was, she could not describe it at all.

"These seeds are kind of weird... Oh, well. I just need to spread these seeds around the palace, right? It should not be hard. It seems my perfect copy has another important task to do tomorrow." Tang Li Xue chuckled.

She closed the jade box and threw it into her space pouch before she took out the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] from her sea of consciousness.

Tang Li Xue put the palm-sized [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] onto her bed.

Then she told Little Loki to guard outside the pagoda before she entered the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].

One night outside might be equal to several days inside the pagoda.

Tang Li Xue did not want to waste her time outside, so she decided to practice inside the pagoda instead.

She practiced the Profound Law of Heat and Cold at the Flame Floor as usual.

Her progress was quite rapid.

So far, her mastery over the Profound Law of Heat and Cold had already reached 15,3%.

If she could continue to practice diligently like this, she might only need a year to completely master the Profound Law of Heat and Cold!

Of course, it was actually not fast at all since it meant she had to practice for ten years or so inside the pagoda.

Time flies really quickly when practicing cultivation.

The sun had risen again outside without Tang Li Xue realizing it.

If not for Little Loki reminding her, Tang Li Xue would probably have practiced for several days straight.

Tang Li Xue went out of the pagoda and let Little Loki practice inside the pagoda instead.

After she stored the pagoda back into her sea of consciousness and put away all the isolation talismans she stuck on the door and wall, Tang Li Xue finally let all the maids waiting outside come in.

The maids helped Tang Li Xue undress, take a bath, and dress up as usual.

Before Tang Li Xue was escorted to have breakfast with the Third Prince by the maids and guards, she excused herself and went to the toilet first.

In the toilet, Tang Li Xue used her [Twin Moons] and summoned out her perfect copy.

The perfect copy immediately complained to Tang Li Xue in an unhappy tone: "Can you please choose a better place next time?!"

"You should have known that we have extremely sharp noses, right? It is very stinky here!"

"Why don’t you just summon me inside your room?!"
