Reincarnated As a Fox With System

.....

Tang Li Xue felt a little bit relieved after she managed to get out safely from the Imperial Palace.

What Tang Li Xue feared the most when she was still in the Imperial Palace was any masters above Nascent Soul Stage personally made their move to capture her.

Just like when she was at the Miracle Doctor Xu's place before, the middle-aged master above Nascent Soul Stage beside Miracle Doctor Xu effortlessly caught her in the blink of an eye without even giving her any chance to use her abilities.

But Tang Li Xue did not know that the attention of the masters above Nascent Soul Stage was actually focused on another incident which made them unaware of the incident between her and the Second Prince.

Yes, right at that time, the Third Prince led his guards to confront the Second Prince's guards who surrounded his courtyard, and they even fought against each other in the end.

Both the Second Prince's side and the Third Prince's side have their own Nascent Soul Stage masters that joined the battle which made their fight escalate quickly until the masters above Nascent Soul Stage were forced to make their move to stop their fight.

When the masters above Nascent Soul Stage were busy stopping that fight, Tang Li Xue disguised as the Second Prince, and finally managed to get out from the Imperial Palace through East Meridian Gate.

Of course, Tang Li Xue could not relax yet since she sensed that the Second Prince was still chasing after her from behind, but at the very least, she did not need to be afraid of the masters above Nascent Soul Stage anymore.

After all, those masters above Nascent Soul Stage had to guard the Imperial Palace, so they could not leave the Imperial Palace unless absolutely necessary.

Well, it would be too embarrassing if they had to leave their post just to catch a mere Acupuncture Opening Stage cultivator like Tang Li Xue. It was like using a nuclear bomb to kill a rat.

At this time, Tang Li Xue was on the verge of collapsing in exhaustion, while the Second Prince and his group were getting closer and closer to her from behind.

Tang Li Xue decided to summon out Lucia and jumped onto Lucia's back in a hurry.

"Huff, huff... Let's go, Lucia~! Head that way!" Tang Li Xue patted Lucia's head while wiping the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve before she pointed her finger to the location of Zhong Avenue where the Blood God Cult already waited to ambush the Second Prince.

"But remember not to go too fast. Our main task is to lead the people behind us to that location." Tang Li Xue reminded Lucia.

Lucia nodded her feathered head in understanding as she dashed toward the location pointed out by Tang Li Xue with moderate speed.

…..

While Tang Li Xue was resting on Lucia's back to recover her stamina, the Second Prince cursed in frustration instead: "Not good! That damn vixen suddenly speeds up again!"

"Do not worry, His Highness Second Prince! My subordinates will bring Cloud Dragon Steeds here!" One of the two Nascent Soul Stage masters said to the Second Prince.

After a few dozen breaths, several guards came swiftly by riding the Cloud Dragon Steeds, then some of them jumped down from the Cloud Dragon Steeds and gave the Cloud Dragon Steeds to the Second Prince and the two Nascent Soul Stage masters.

"Good job! Hahaha, with these Cloud Dragon Steeds, we should be able to catch up with that vixen very soon!" The Second Prince delightfully rode the Cloud Dragon Steed and urged the Cloud Dragon Steed to chase after Tang Li Xue.

"Should we spread up and surround that assassin, so we can catch her easier?" The Nascent Soul Stage master suggested to the Second Prince.

But the Second Prince shook his head to reject the idea and explained: "That vixen is really good at the art of disguise and hiding. Even my personal guards failed to capture her after they surrounded her before. So far, only I can sense her. No matter where she is hiding or who she disguises as, I can still definitely sense her, so you two only need to help me subdue her later after we catch up with her."

"We will obey Your Highness Second Prince's order!" The two Nascent Soul Stage masters and the other guards replied sonorously to the Second Prince.

.....

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue suddenly sensed that the Second Prince's speed suddenly increased several times after he rode the Cloud Dragon Steed!

"Damn it~! So, he also rides a mount right now?! Not good! At this rate, he will catch up to us really soon! Let's speed up, Lucia! We cannot let him catch up to us before we reach Zhong Avenue!" Tang Li Xue informed Lucia in a solemn tone.

Lucia immediately increased her speed to maximum, and she was moving like a streak of white lightning in the middle of the night!

The streets they passed became more and more crowded as they were getting further and further away from the Imperial Palace.

It made sense since common people did not dare to get close to the heavily guarded Imperial Palace.

Lucia skillfully avoided all the people on the streets and carriages in zigzag patterns while kept moving at astonishing speed without slowing down even one bit!

It could not be helped since there was a Flying Restriction Ban covering the entire Capital City, so no one could fly once they entered the Capital City.

When the Second Prince and his group reached the crowded street, he impatiently shouted: "Get out of my way!"

Then the Second Prince and the two Nascent Soul Masters unleashed their spells to sweep away all the people and carriages that blocked their way to the side.

BANG~! BANG~! BANG~! BANG~!

Many people were injured because of their forceful sweeping moves, but the Second Prince did not care about what happened to them at all as he urged his Cloud Dragon Steed to chase after Tang Li Xue again.

The Second Prince was getting more and more irritated since he failed to get closer to Tang Li Xue despite already riding on the Cloud Dragon Steed.

Then he finally took a crucial decision by saying: "Feed our Cloud Dragon Steeds with a Life Burning Pill."

"What?! His Highness Second Prince... These Cloud Dragon Steeds might be able to speed up several times faster by consuming Life Burning Pill, but they will definitely die after they overdraft their life force later." The Nascent Soul Stage master reminded the Second Prince.

The other Nascent Soul Stage master nodded and added: "These Cloud Dragon Steeds are the rare precious mounts we buy at the sky-high price from the neighbor dynasty. I don't think it is worth it sacrificing them just to catch a mere assassin."

But they did not know that the Second Prince thought it was completely worth it to trade several Cloud Dragon Steeds with Earthly Desire Spirit possessed by Tang Li Xue!

If his Earthly Desire Spirit could devour Tang Li Xue's Phoenix of Pride, then his strength would definitely soar!

If she managed to break through into Nascent Soul Stage later plus his upgraded Earthly Desire Spirit, he would be able to fight or even defeat Spirit Transformation Realm master!

At that time, his chance of getting the throne would also increase exponentially!

The Second Prince's eyes turned red in greed.

He gnashed his teeth and muttered in a resolute tone: "It does not matter! I will compensate for all the losses later!"

The two Nascent Soul Stage masters and the other guards did not have any other choice. They could only reluctantly follow the Second Prince's order and feed their Cloud Dragon Steeds with Life Burning Pills.

NEEEEIIGGGHH~!

Their Cloud Dragon Steeds quickly went berserk, and their eyes turned completely red as if they had lost their mind!

The Second Prince and the two Nascent Soul Stage masters hastily brought the Cloud Dragon Steeds under their control with force!

Then they controlled the berserk Cloud Dragon Steeds to chase after Tang Li Xue instead.

Tang Li Xue was extremely shocked when she sensed that the Second Prince's speed suddenly soared several times!

"What the hell is happening?! Did he use drugs or what?! This kind of speed is already far surpassing Nascent Soul Stage cultivator!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in disbelief.

The Second Prince, the two Nascent Soul Stage masters, and several Core Formation Stage guards rapidly closed the distance between them!

In just a few moments, they could already see Tang Li Xue's back clearly!

"Don't kill her! We just need to capture her!" The Second Prince warned in a stern tone as he took out his [Dragon Binding Rope] from his spatial ring and threw it toward Tang Li Xue!

The two Nascent Soul Stage masters and several Core Formation Stage guards also threw their Immobilization Talismans and restraint-type spirit treasures at Tang Li Xue from behind!

At the crucial moment when several Immobilization Talismans and restraint-type spirit treasures almost reached Lucia and Tang Li Xue, Lucia suddenly activated her skill!

[Slow Motion]~!

In that instant, her surroundings were slowing down a lot!

BWOOOSSH~!

Lucia sprinted in a zigzag pattern and jumped around to avoid all Immobilization Talismans and restraint-type spirit treasures!

The Second Prince, the two Nascent Soul Stage masters, and several Core Formation Stage guards were completely dumbfounded in amazement when they saw Lucia manage to dodge everything with ease!

Then Lucia accelerated forward again to widen the distance between them!
