Chapter 1091: Chapter 1091: Fighting Against Female Snake!
Tang Li Xue sat on Lucia’s back with Yaya and Little Loki as they entered the hidden tunnel together.
The deeper they entered the hidden tunnel, the narrower it would become.
Tang Li Xue could only walk on foot in the end, and even Lucia had to use her [Gigantification] skill to shrink her body size.
"As we should expect from the snake hideout, they really like narrow places!" Tang Li Xue complained unhappily.
The hidden tunnel had many forks, which made it extremely easy to get lost.
Even though Tang Li Xue had the [Mapping Sense] skill, it would take her a long time if she wanted to find the correct path by relying on it.
Their group proceeded very quickly, thanks to Little Loki, who led the way with its sense of smell.
After traveling for more than an hour, Little Loki finally told Tang Li Xue that they should be close to the location of that female snake.
Tang Li Xue nodded solemnly to Little Loki as she raised her vigilance to maximum.
After walking for a few more hundred meters, they finally reached a wider area inside the dark hidden tunnel.
"Meeeoow~!" Little Loki suddenly let out a loud cry to warn Tang Li Xue and the others.
Even without Little Loki’s warning, Tang Li Xue could already sense the incoming danger with her [Extrasensory Perception]!
[Void Barrier]—!
[Transparent Barrier] created with [Energy Manipulation]—!
Tang Li Xue quickly unleashed two layers of defence to block the sudden sneak attack!
BOOOOOM—!
Tang Li Xue was thrown back until she crashed into the cave’s wall, but her two layers of barrier still remained intact, even though they were full of cracks.
Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya quickly stood in front of Tang Li Xue to protect her.
The figure of the female snake gradually became clear as she muttered coldly to Tang Li Xue: "You stinky fox, how dare you chase me all the way here! It seems like you are really tired of living!"
Tang Li Xue undauntedly met the female snake’s glare and replied: "Let the little girl go, and I will no longer chase after you anymore."
The female snake sneered sinisterly and asked in a mocking voice: "Hah?! Did I hear it right? Little girl? Oh, do you mean Duke Yan’s granddaughter?"
Then the female snake took out a space pouch and continued to say: "She is sleeping soundly inside this space pouch. Come here and take it~!"
The female snake stretched out her hand that held the space pouch as if she truly wanted to give it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue never believed the female snake, but she still stepped forward to take the space pouch from the female snake’s grasp.
As soon as Tang Li Xue grabbed the space pouch, the female snake’s hand swiftly wrapped Tang Li Xue’s arm like a boneless snake!
Tang Li Xue immediately unleashed deep blue Flames of Pride and Golden Sun Flames to cover her arm!
The female snake quickly pulled back her hand to avoid getting burned by Tang Li Xue’s Flames of Pride and Golden Sun Flames!
But the female snake had already completed her objective.
She managed to leave some scratches on Tang Li Xue’s arm with her fingernail!
Even though the scratches on Tang Li Xue’s arm were nothing, and it instantly recovered in the blink of an eye without leaving any trace or scar, but the female snake’s venom had been injected into Tang Li Xue’s body!
If Tang Li Xue were a normal beast or human, she would have been in great danger right now.
Luckily, Tang Li Xue’s [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline] and [Sun And Moon Aegis], which could automatically clear all debuffs, immediately worked to purify the female snake’s venom.
Just like a drop of snow entered the sea of flames, the female snake’s venom was purified almost instantly before it could do anything inside Tang Li Xue’s body.
Tang Li Xue no longer cared about the poison or the female snake’s despicable act, and she quickly checked the contents of the space pouch.
PUFF—!
The moment Tang Li Xue tried to open the space pouch, the space pouch instantly released the poisonous gas toward Tang Li Xue’s face!
The poisonous gas smelled so pungent that Tang Li Xue felt extremely dizzy and uncomfortable after just one whiff.
"Pffft~! Hehehehe, you stupid stinky fox, how could you trust your opponent just like that?! You are lucky that you are still from the Beast Race. If not for that, you would have already lost your head by now!" The female snake laughed mockingly at Tang Li Xue.
The female snake charged toward Tang Li Xue, when Tang Li Xue was still dizzy and staggering like a drunk person!
But Little Loki had turned into its [Black Lightning Form] to face the female snake]’s head-on!
Yaya also unleashed several [Rotating Wind Cutters] toward the female snake, while Lucia stood right in front of Tang Li Xue with her [Golden Vajra Shield] turned on to block any attacks for Tang Li Xue!
The female snake sneered as her body moved around flexibly, as if she did not have any bones!
The female snake managed to avoid a head-on clash with Little Loki in its [Black Lightning Form], dodging Yaya’s [Rotating Wind Cutters], and slipping past right under Lucia’s feet, then wrapping her body around Tang Li Xue’s body like a real snake, but her lightning-fast movement caught everyone completely off guard.
Even Tang Li Xue was amazed by the female snake’s stunt and silently thought: ’Holy crap~! She could actually move like that?! Is this female snake Or*chimaru’s clone or what?!’
Tang Li Xue hurriedly planned to unleash deep blue Flames of Pride and Golden Sun Flames to repel the female snake, but the female snake threatened: "Don’t move or I will bite off your neck until your head falls off!"
Tang Li Xue could feel countless sharp teeth touching her fair smooth neck!
Even Lucia, Little Loki, and Yaya no longer dared to rashly attack the female snake at this moment.
Tang Li Xue secretly activated her [Divine Will]’s active buff effect, [Mind’s Eyes], without the female snake realizing it.
(Mind’s Eyes: The user will temporarily have a pair of eyes that have the power to read anyone’s mind and predict anyone’s movement ahead of time. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 5 hours.)
"I am sorry for ruining your plan, okay? But why do you have to go this far just to kidnap an innocent little girl?" Tang Li Xue tried to have a conversation with the female snake while she was secretly looking for where the female snake put the little girl.
The female snake snorted and replied: "You stupid stinky fox, don’t tell me you don’t know how many beasts the Human Race has killed in these few hundred years?! Using their own children as hostages to make them betray and fight each other is the most convenient way to exact the revenge for our Beast Race!"
With the power of [Mind’s Eyes], Tang Li Xue could instantly detect that the female snake was lying to her, but it did not matter anymore because Tang Li Xue finally found out where the female snake put the Duke Yan’s granddaughter.
"Stop moving—!" Tang Li Xue suddenly shouted while activating her [Mystic Whisper] divine ability!
The female snake’s body instantly became stiff under the effect of [Mystic Whisper]!
[Frost Moon]—!
Tang Li Xue unleashed [Frost Moon] to freeze the female snake and momentarily trapped her mind in the illusion while she quickly grabbed another space pouch from the female snake’s sleeve!
The female snake actually has a lot of space pouches hidden around her body, and the space pouch containing Duke Yan’s granddaughter was hidden among them.
Tang Li Xue actually had a chance to kill the female snake right at this moment if she used her Flames of Pride to burn her, [Moonlight Flashing Edge] to cut her to pieces, or simply struck her with [Moon Shattering Blast].
However, Tang Li Xue chose not to do it because she sensed that the female snake also spared her a few times before.
Tang Li Xue kicked the female snake away and quickly ran away with the space pouch containing Duke Yan’s granddaughter.
"Let’s go, everyone~!" Tang Li Xue said to Yaya, Lucia, and Little Loki.
But just as Tang Li Xue took a few steps, her vision suddenly turned upside down.
BANG—!
Tang Li Xue actually fell onto the ground on her own!
"Huh? What the heck is happening?" Tang Li Xue felt confused because her entire body had become numb, and she suddenly became extremely sleepy.
Yaya, Lucia, and Little Loki hastily approached Tang Li Xue in worry.
"Am I poisoned? But... how could it be?! It should be impossible!" Tang Li Xue found it really hard to believe because her [Yin Yang Celestial Sky Fox Bloodline] and [Sun And Moon Aegis] should be able to clear and purify any poison!
"Hehehe, I know that you should have a divine ability to make you immune to poison, right? You should be very bewildered right now and wondering why you could be poisoned even though you have poison immunity." The female snake stood up again and leisurely laughed at Tang Li Xue.
The female snake sneered and revealed to Tang Li Xue: "The reason is simple. It is because you were actually not poisoned."
Tang Li Xue bit the tip of her tongue to maintain her consciousness, but strangely, she actually could not feel any pain at this moment!
’What a bullsh*t! I am clearly poisoned right now!’ Tang Li Xue cursed the female snake for still trying to lie to her even in this current situation.
