Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 943: Shocking Secret!

When Tang Li Xue was busily thinking, Miracle Doctor Xu suddenly asked her without turning his back: ”Where is the real guard?”

”Eh? What?” Tang Li Xue tilted her head in confusion.

Miracle Doctor Xu halted his step and turned around to face Tang Li Xue with his usual cold and indifferent expression, then he asked again: ”Since you have disguised yourself as this guard, that means you should have locked up the real guard somewhere else, right? Or perhaps, you have already killed him?”

Tang Li Xue hastily shook her head and denied it: ”No way~! I am not that cruel, okay?! Well, I... I just put him to sleep for a while...”

Miracle Doctor Xu still stared at Tang Li Xue suspiciously and uttered to her: ”Then bring me to him.”

Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only lead Miracle Doctor Xu to the warehouse where she had previously knocked out the guard.

Miracle Doctor Xu easily borrowed the warehouse’s key from Manager Chen in only a few words, then Tang Li Xue led him into the warehouse and pulled out the fainting guard from the sealed big jar.

If it was an ordinary person, he might have already died of suffocation after he was sealed in the big jar for a half day, but the fainting guard was a cultivator at the level of mid-rank Acupucture Opening Stage, so his life was many times more resilient than any ordinary person.

Miracle Doctor Xu nodded in satisfaction after he checked the fainting guard’s condition and made sure that he was all right.

After tapping several acupunctures on the fainting guard, Miracle Doctor Xu stared at Tang Li Xue and said to her: ”Let’s go back. This guard will regain consciousness in a few more minutes. You do not want him to see your current appearance that is similar to his, right?”

Tang Li Xue nodded as she locked the warehouse again and returned the key to Manager Chen.

Tang Li Xue secretly admired Miracle Doctor Xu’s kind and caring personality despite the fact that he always looked cold and indifferent from the outside.

’Sigh... As I would expect from a great doctor. It would be nice if I could add this handsome doctor into my future harem.’ Tang Li Xue imagined happily in her mind.

Without realizing it, Tang Li Xue actually followed Miracle Doctor Xu back into his courtyard near the Supreme Medical Hall.

Miracle Doctor Xu’s home and courtyard might not be as luxurious as the Third Prince’s, but it should be the best one among the other Imperial Doctors.

When Tang Li Xue looked around curiously, Miracle Doctor Xu’s cold words suddenly rang in her ears: ”You do not need to use that disguise anymore. Since you have to stay here with me for one month so I can fully cure you, it would be better if you have a proper identity. I will introduce you to others as my assistant from now on.”

Tang Li Xue widened her eyes in surprise after she heard Miracle Doctor Xu’s suggestion.

’Woah~! So nice~! This handsome doctor is so kind~! Sigh, it would be really nice if I could stay as his assistant for a month... Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to stay here that long.’ Tang Li Xue secretly lamented in her heart.

Tang Li Xue did not dare to tell the truth to Miracle Doctor Xu.

Maybe she was afraid that she would disappoint him if she rejected his kind offer or if he knew her true objective for coming here.

In short, Tang Li Xue had decided to sneak away from here later after Doctor Xu went to sleep.

But before that...

Tang Li Xue suddenly canceled her [Thousand Myriad Faces] ability and revealed her extremely stunning beautiful appearance to Miracle Doctor Xu.

Miracle Doctor Xu was completely caught off guard by Tang Li Xue’s sudden transformation, and he was stunned silly by Tang Li Xue’s charming beauty for a few dozen breaths.

’Hehehe, you always call me stupid, but now, I can finally make you look stupid in front of me~!’ Tang Li Xue smugly thought in her heart as a mesmerizing smile bloomed on her stunning face.

After Miracle Doctor Xu woke up from his stupor, he immediately blushed in embarrassment and no longer dared to stare at Tang Li Xue.

”How is it, Miracle Doctor Xu? Am I beautiful?” Tang Li Xue stepped closer to Miracle Doctor Xu while teasing him in a flirty tone.

Miracle Doctor Xu quickly calmed down himself and muttered in his usual cold tone: ”So, you are not a human. It makes sense since no human could survive in the condition you are in right now.”

Tang Li Xue nodded and asked him again, still with a teasing smile on her face: ”Then, Doctor Xu, are you sure I can appear like this as your assistant tomorrow?”

”Cough... No, I do not think that it will be good for my patients to see your true appearance. It would be best if you can disguise with a more ordinary appearance.” Miracle Doctor Xu hastily gave another suggestion to Tang Li Xue.

”Why?” Tang Li Xue asked in an unconvinced tone.

”Because they might die in bliss after they saw your true appearance.” Miracle Doctor Xu replied casually.

”Pfft~! Hehehehe... I never knew that you were such a good talker, Doctor Xu.” Tang Li Xue burst into giggles after she heard Miracle Doctor Xu’s reply.

While chatting, Miracle Doctor Xu led Tang Li Xue to her new room and uttered to her: ”This will be your room from now on. I know that you must be pretty tired today, so we will start your treatment process tomorrow.”

”Wow, so this will be my room from now on. Thank you very much, Doctor Xu.” Tang Li Xue cheerfully thanked Miracle Doctor Xu.

Miracle Doctor Xu nodded at Tang Li Xue and continued to say: ”You are welcome. You can take a rest now. My room is right across from your room, so if you need anything, you can just come to my room.”

Miracle Doctor Xu bid farewell to Tang Li Xue and went into his own room.

Tang Li Xue closed the door of her room and sat on the soft bed, but before she could lay down on it, she suddenly sensed the Communication Talisman in her space pouch was shaking.

Tang Li Xue took out her Communication Talisman from her space pouch and picked up the call, then Mo Rui’s annoying voice came out from her Communication Talisman: ”Hey, Little Cutie~! I have been waiting for you all day today, you know. Did something bad happen to you there?”

Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a nonchalant tone: ”No, everything is good here. It is just quite difficult for me to approach the Second Prince’s courtyard since there are so many guards patrolling around it.”

Tang Li Xue clearly could not tell that she got lost today, and she did not even have any clue about the location of Second Prince’s courtyard until now, so she could only tell a random excuse to appease Mo Rui and his people for now.

”It is okay, Little Cutie. We are not in a hurry. We have already set an ambush and trap formation at the Zhong Avenue, so you only need to lead the Second Prince there later. Of course, the sooner it would be the better.” Mo Rui informed Tang Li Xue through the Communication Talisman.

”I know. There is no need for you to remind me about that again. I will try to do it as soon as possible.” Tang Li Xue answered in an annoyed tone before she hung up the connection and threw her Communication Talisman back into her space pouch.

Tang Li Xue no longer felt sleepy after Mo Rui’s call, so she began to practice the [Void Divinities Refining Method] instead.

Unknowingly, a few hours had passed, and midnight had come.

Tang Li Xue slowly opened her topaz blue eyes and muttered: ”It is time for me to get away from here.”

But leaving Miracle Doctor Xu without any explanation would leave a bad aftertaste in her heart, so she decided to write an apology letter to him.

After that, Tang Li Xue activated the perfect level of the [Art of Concealment], and her entire being blended perfectly with her surroundings; she completely became one with nature.

Her mind and soul had entered the Samadhi state without any distracting thoughts and desires.

Tang Li Xue silently stepped out of her room and headed to Miracle Doctor Xu’s room.

But just when Tang Li Xue wanted to slip her apology letter into the gap of his room’s door, she found out that Doctor Xu was not sleeping yet.

Tang Li Xue heard that Miracle Doctor Xu was currently talking to someone inside his room.

”Young Master, isn’t that enough already? How much longer will you treat that old man?” A man’s voice asked.

”I can only extend his life for one and a half years at most. It could not be helped. He is my great-grandfather after all. Although I cannot cure him, I have to do my best to extend his life.” Miracle Doctor Xu’s masculine voice echoed from inside the room.

Tang Li Xue: ”?!”

The man chuckled before he replied: ”I am sure all people will be very surprised if they know that the Master of Yama Palace actually disguised as a great doctor and tried to cure the Emperor.”

Tang Li Xue: ”???!!!”
