Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 1076 1076: Return to Fox Clan City!

.....

After Tang Li Xue stepped out of the space portal, she realized that she had stood on the giant stone ring in the spacious Space Gate Hall.

Tang Li Xue breathed a sigh of relief as all the tension she felt when she was in the Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty was finally gone.

Although this Fox Clan City in Azure Mist Continent could not be said to be her true home, but at least, Tang Li Xue felt much safer here than anywhere else in the Blue Mist Continent.

Perhaps if Tang Li Xue were still human, she would feel safer living in a human settlement, but Tang Li Xue was a fox now, so she would feel that way.

Ji Xuanming, Feng Shuang, and Feng Ying also felt the same.

”Where do you want to go now? If you do not have a place to stay yet, you can just stay at my place.” Ji Xuanming kindly offered to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue shook her head to reject Ji Xuanmingʼs offer and replied: ”I have to report back to Miss Bookkeeper.”

There were many reasons why Tang Li Xue wanted to report back to the Bookkeeper as soon as possible.

First, the news about her should have already reached Instructor Mei Lan and the others in the Lightwind Continent.

Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, Bingbing, and Yan Fei might even have sent a message to her, and their message might have reached the Bookkeeperʼs hands.

Second, Tang Li Xue still could not truly feel at ease as long as the debt of eighty billion credits was still haunting her mind.

So, Tang Li Xue hoped the bookkeeper would immediately clear her eighty billion credits debt right after she reported the completion of her mission.

Third... Well, in short, she really could not eat or sleep well as long as eighty billion creditsʼ debt was still there.

It should be the trauma caused by the debt in her previous life.

In her previous life, she died because she overworked to pay her debt, so she clearly would not let it happen again in this current life.

Tang Li Xue bid farewell to Ji Xuanming, Feng Shuang, and Feng Ying after they stepped out from the Space Gate Hall.

Then Tang Li Xue, Xiʼer, Yaya, and Little Loki rode on Luciaʼs back before she instructed Lucia to head toward the library in the elite inner circle area.

Tang Li Xue also did not forget to create a fox mask with her [Energy Manipulation] and wore it to cover her stunningly beautiful face in order not to attract any unwanted attention.

Previously, when they ran out of Great Weiʼs Capital City, Tang Li Xueʼs stunningly beautiful appearance had attracted many rogue cultivatorsʼ greed, but they all ended up being killed by Tang Li Xue, Shao Ying, and the others.

However, they clearly could not do the same in this Fox Clan City, so it would be best if she remained low-key instead.

Tang Li Xue also took out the white jade identity badge from her space pouch and hung it on her slender waist.

Without showing this white jade identity badge, she would not be able to enter the elite inner circle area, and she would be captured by the patrolling fox guards instead.

While relaxedly riding on Luciaʼs back, Tang Li Xue silently opened her Systemʼs quest status window.

She frowned deeply because her [Road to The Throne] quest was actually not completed yet.

It should be because Xu Yang had not been crowned as the new emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty yet.

ʼI hope it will not take too long for Doctor Xu to officially become the next Great Weiʼs emperor.ʼ Tang Li Xue secretly prayed in her heart.

She would not be able to take another quest as long as this [Road to The Throne] quest had not been completed yet.

In fact, Tang Li Xue even wanted to stay and help Xu Yang until he became the emperor, if the current situation of the Capital City had not worsened to that point... and if what she had done in the Imperial Treasury was not discovered by anyone.

Currently, Tang Li Xue could only hope that everything would go well for Xu Yang in the end.

Tang Li Xue was woken up from her daze by the sound of crowds.

It was already night right now, and the sky had turned dark, but Fox Clan City was still very crowded.

In fact, the Fox Clan City had become even more crowded and active at night, especially in the middle circle market area.

Well, it was not strange because foxes were nocturnal creatures after all.

Xiʼer, Yaya, and Little Loki looked around curiously with their pair of eyes shining in excitement.

”I will bring you all sightseeing tomorrow, but today, we have to meet Bookeeper first.” Tang Li Xue reminded them again.

Lucia and Xiʼer were still okay, but Yaya and Little Loki were too childish.

Tang Li Xue was afraid that the two of them would suddenly disappear as soon as she looked away from them, even for a moment.

Tang Li Xue smiled gently at them and said: ”You guys must be tired, right? So, you all can go back into the pagoda and take a good rest inside there first.”

Xiʼer, Yaya, and Little Loki rolled their eyes in unison, but before they could complain, Tang Li Xue already threw all three of them into the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda].

Tang Li Xue felt much more relieved after that.

It did not take long for Lucia to bring Tang Li Xue to the library in the elite inner circle area.

Tang Li Xue patted Luciaʼs head gently and praised: ”Good job for today, Lucia. You can also go back into the pagoda to rest.”

After putting Lucia into the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], Tang Li Xue pushed open the gate and stepped into the library.

In fact, Tang Li Xue put everyone into the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] because she did not want to bring them to meet with the Bookkeeper.

Bookkeeperʼs mind-reading ability was too scary after all.

Even though Bookkeeper had already known almost all of her secrets, including [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] and Little Lokiʼs true identity, but it would never be bad for her to keep one or two more secrets from Bookkeeper.

The interior of the library was still very spacious, bright, and clean as usual, without even a speck of dust.

Tang Li Xue walked deeper into the vast library, and it took a while for her to reach the center of the vast library.

At the center of the vast library, a beautiful fox lady in a purple Hanfu dress was sitting leisurely on the sofa while reading the book in her right hand and sipping the tea with her other hand.

The beautiful fox lady with an elegant and noble aura has long, straight gray hair along with gray-furred fox ears and fox tails.

The gray-haired fox lady raised her head and smiled kindly when she saw Tang Li Xue and greeted her with a gentle melodious voice: ”So, you have come back.”

As soon as the Bookkeeper glanced at Tang Li Xue, Tang Li Xue was immediately engulfed by an uncomfortable feeling as if she was stripped completely naked in front of the Bookkeeper.

The Bookkeeper closed the book in her grasp. The book automatically flew away from her hands, and then it inserted itself into the bookshelf.

Another book flew out from the bookshelf and landed on the Bookkeeperʼs hands.

The Bookkeeper chuckled and said to Tang Li Xue: ”No need to be too tense. You can sit down first.”

Even though Bookkeeperʼs voice seemed gentle, melodious, and kind, but it contained hidden, irresistible power.

Tang Li Xue felt as if her body was moving by itself, and before she realized it, she had already sat on the sofa across from the Bookkeeper.

The Bookkeeper did not even deliberately do it.

The Bookkeeper poured the tea from the teapot into a new teacup and gave it to Tang Li Xue.

The Bookkeeper also put the blank ʼStory Bookʼ on the tea table in front of Tang Li Xue.

Then the Bookkeeper sat leisurely as if she was waiting for Tang Li Xue to tell the story for her.

Tang Li Xue already used the blank ʼStory Bookʼ to record her story twice, so she knew what she needed to do.

After she drank the tea in one gulp to calm herself down, Tang Li Xue opened the ʼStory Bookʼ and touched the blank page before she narrated her story after she stepped into the Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty for the second time with Shao Ying and Ji Xuanmingʼs team.

In that instant, the surrounding library scenery around them changed into the scenery inside the Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Tang Li Xueʼs current story was not as long as her first and second stories since she did not stay for long in the Great Weiʼs Capital City.

The Bookkeeper giggled in amusement when the story reached the part of the funny interaction between Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang.

Tang Li Xueʼs face turned red in embarrassment because it looked as if she was afraid of Xu Yang.

Well, she admitted that she was a bit intimidated by Xu Yangʼs cold and majestic aura, but she was mainly afraid that she could not complete her mission if she offended Xu Yang, so she decided to be submissive to Xu Yang at least until she managed to persuade him to compete for the throne.
