Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Acting Pitiful!
All the stone creatures suddenly sank into the stone floor, leaving only Tang Li Xue, Lu Xingchen, and Little Loki there!
The surrounding stone floor, stone wall, and stone ceiling kept deforming rapidly.
Little Loki used its [Instant Teleportation] to teleport back to Tang Li Xue’s shoulder.
Tang Li Xue still had [Wings of Freedom] buff, so she could still fly around freely with extremely fast speed.
Unfortunately, her entire surroundings seemed to turn into a large stone cage that was ready to crush her into bloody pulp!
No matter where Tang Li Xue tried to fly, her entire surroundings seemed to shrink rapidly from all directions!
Tang Li Xue landed on the ground and stood back to back with Lu Xingchen with a solemn expression.
"Now, what should we do, Young Master Lu? If you still have a trump card, then you’d better use it now before it is too late." Tang Li Xue uttered to Lu Xingchen.
Lu Xingchen sneered and replied to Tang Li Xue: "It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. I wonder if a cunning fox like you also has three burrows?"
Tang Li Xue smiled sweetly and answered in a playful tone: "Why don’t you guess, Young Master Lu?"
Lu Xingchen sighed helplessly while silently admitting that this fox girl was truly too attractive.
Lu Xingchen sheathed his sword and took his quick drawing stance.
"Uhh, Young Master Lu... What do you want to do? You’d better think about it carefully. We are still inside the cave secret realm, so if you destroy our surroundings, we might all be buried alive forever here." Tang Li Xue tried to remind Lu Xingchen not to do anything rash.
Lu Xingchen chuckled and replied: "Being buried alive forever with a peerless beauty might not be such a bad thing."
Right at this moment, the surrounding stone wall, ground, and ceiling had already shrunk, leaving only a little space for Tang Li Xue and Lu Xingchen to stand.
At this rate, both Tang Li Xue and Lu Xingchen might be crushed by the shrinking stone cage in the next few seconds!
"You..." Before Tang Li Xue could say anything back to Lu Xingchen, Lu Xingchen had already drawn his sword from its sheath!
[Sin Severing Sword Drawing Slash] Second Form, [Soul Reaping Flash]—!
BOOOOOOOM—!
Lu Xingchen unleashed a strange and powerful sword energy attack that destroyed the surrounding stone to dust!
Even the stone creatures that were hiding underground were also affected by Lu Xingchen’s sword energy attack, and many of them also turned to dust, leaving only a few stone creatures remaining unaffected!
After unleashing such a devastatingly powerful sword energy attack, Lu Xingchen’s handsome face immediately turned very pale, and he was even staggering unsteadily.
Lu Xingchen fell weakly and sat on the ground, which was filled with dust from the destroyed surrounding stones.
Tang Li Xue silently glanced at Little Loki, and Little Loki immediately understood what Tang Li Xue wanted it to do.
Little Loki nodded and suddenly disappeared from Tang Li Xue’s shoulder.
A charming smile appeared on Tang Li Xue’s stunningly beautiful face as she asked Lu Xingchen in a teasing tone: "Young Master Lu, are you okay? You do not look so good right now."
"It is okay. At least, I will not die yet." Lu Xingchen replied in a weak voice.
Lu Xingchen stared at Tang Li Xue and smiled while asking: "I no longer have any strength left to resist you anymore right now. Are you sure you do not want to take revenge on me at this moment? I have already tried to kill you a few times before, after all."
Tang Li Xue’s topaz blue eyes flickered slightly when she heard Lu Xingchen’s words.
She stared at Lu Xingchen coldly for a few moments while pondering carefully if what Lu Xingchen was saying was really true or not.
There was still a chance that Lu Xingchen was only pretending to look weak.
But Tang Li Xue was 80% sure that Lu Xingchen was not pretending because the previous sword energy attack he unleashed before was too powerful, so it should have drained most of his energy.
Tang Li Xue stepped closer to Lu Xingchen and crouched down right beside him.
Then she put her palm on her smooth chin and smiled sweetly at Lu Xingchen while saying: "Young Master Lu, we have already fought side by side against so many enemies just now, so how could I do something so despicable like backstabbing you after you spent all of your energy to defeat the enemies?!"
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided not to do anything rash to kill Lu Xingchen.
Even though she still felt resentful of Lu Xingchen, but she knew that it would not be that easy for her to kill the lucky person with a protagonist template like Lu Xingchen.
On the contrary, she might be able to get a lot of benefits if she could stay close to him instead.
Their previous encounters were concrete evidence of that.
Tang Li Xue always obtained huge benefits every time she got involved in an incident with Lu Xingchen, like when they were at the lake in the middle of the Flying Island, or when they were at the Cultivator City.
Tang Li Xue even suspected that she had actually stolen Lu Xingchen’s lucky opportunities, and the [Dragon Tears Weed] should belong to Lu Xingchen if she were not there.
Therefore, Tang Li Xue concluded that rather than doing something thankless like killing Li Xingchen, it would be much better if she were sticking close to him and grabbed more benefits from him!
"Young Master Lu, it seems you think that I am really that bad in your heart." Tang Li Xue sighed and put on an act to look as if she were really dejected and disappointed.
Even her silver-furred fox ears were flopped down, which made her look pitiful and adorable.
Lu Xingchen instantly felt guilty when he saw Tang Li Xue acting like that.
"No, that is not what I mean..." Before Lu Xingchen could finish explaining it to Tang Li Xue...
RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—!
The entire cave suddenly shook violently!
Lu Xingchen and Tang Li Xue’s expression immediately turned solemn.
Especially Tang Li Xue because she could sense incoming danger clearly with her [Extrasensory Perception]!
"All right, now what?" Lu Xingchen muttered while frowning deeply in worry.
Tang Li Xue had already sent telepathy and ordered Little Loki to quickly come back to her, so if something dangerous happened, Tang Li Xue could quickly put Little Loki into her System’s pet space and get out of here by switching places with her perfect copy.
"I have a really bad feeling about this. Let’s quickly get away from here." Tang Li Xue said as she suddenly grabbed Lu Xingchen’s back collar and flew away swiftly from there.
Fortunately, the duration of her [Wings of Freedom] buff had not expired yet.
Not long after that, the deafening sound of rumbling grew louder, accompanied by the loud sound of water crashing!
It was like the sound of an incoming flash flood, but a mere flash flood should not give Tang Li Xue’s [Extrasensory Perception] a great danger warning.
Tang Li Xue was flying with breakneck speed that made Lu Xingchen very uncomfortable since Tang Li Xue carried Lu Xingchen like luggage.
After flying thousands of meters away in only a few breaths, Tang Li Xue finally got stuck at the dead-end!
Just when Tang Li Xue wanted to fly back and take another way,
A few seconds after that, a huge wave of green water was already charging toward Tang Li Xue and Lu Xingchen!
This green water was clearly the corrosive liquid!
If Tang Li Xue and Lu Xingchen were swallowed by this green water, they would be dissolved like salt in the hot water!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth as she dropped Lu Xingchen and raised her fair, smooth hands.
"Come out, [Imperial Frost Wyrm]!" Tang Li Xue hastily summoned her martial soul, [Imperial Frost Wyrm], which was still with her perfect copy, back to her side!
The shrunken [Imperial Frost Wyrm] instant appeared right in front of Tang Li Xue!
[Imperial Frost Wyrm] already knew that Tang Li Xue would summon it inside the cave, so it had shrunk its body size with the [Size Shifting Transformation] skill.
The huge amount of corrosive green liquid suddenly halted right before they could touch Tang Li Xue, Lu Xingchen, and [Imperial Frost Wyrm]!
Yes, [Imperial Frost Wyrm] used its [Water Control] skill to stop the huge wave of green corrosive water!
At first, Tang Li Xue only planned for her [Imperial Frost Wyrm] to freeze the green corrosive water with its [Frost Dragon Breath], but now, Tang Li Xue realized that [Imperial Frost Wyrm]’s [Water Control] skill could actually control another liquid other than water.
’The potential of this [Water Control] skill is surprisingly much higher than I expected! If it can control corrosive water, then does it mean it can also control other liquids, such as... blood?’ Tang Li Xue pondered in amazement.
[Imperial Frost Wyrm] did not even need to use its [Frost Dragon Breath]. The green corrosive water rapidly froze into solid ice by [Imperial Frost Wyrm]’s [Ice Control] skill.
After freezing all the green corrosive water, [Imperial Frost Wyrm] shrank its body to palm size with the [Size Shifting Transformation] skill before it flew closer toward Tang Li Xue.
"Good job~!" Tang Li Xue happily hugged the shrunk [Imperial Frost Wyrm] and patted its head.
Little Loki snorted unhappily.
It could easily swallow all the green corrosive water with its [Heaven’s Devour] or [Temporal Storage], but Tang Li Xue simply did not allow it to do so in front of Lu Xingchen.
