Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 1029: Chapter 1029: Assassination!

”How dare you... You... How could it be?! You are... Miss Tang?!” The person who was attacked by Tang Li Xue raised his head and shouted angrily, but his tone immediately softened after he recognized Tang Li Xue at a glance.

It could not be helped. Tang Li Xue might have already worn a black cloak and white fox mask to cover her stunningly beautiful face, fluffy fox tail, and fox ears, but her long silver hair and topaz blue eyes were just too eye-catching and easy to recognize.

Tang Li Xue awkwardly smiled at that person and replied: ”Ahaha... Well, it has been a while, Your Highness Third Prince.”

Yes, the person inside this luxurious carriage was actually the Third Prince, who had saved Tang Li Xue in the Nightmare Forest before.

”Your Highness Third Prince, are you all right? We seem to hear a loud voice and your shout just now.” One of the Third Prince’s personal guards who rode the horse asked from outside the carriage.

Previously, Tang Li Xue jumped into the carriage while using [Ethereal Form], so the Third Prince’s personal guards did not notice her at all.

”It is nothing. I am all right. I dropped something because of my carelessness just now.” The Third Prince replied to the guard.

The Third Prince’s personal guards stopped worrying too much about it and continued to escort the carriage as usual after they heard the Third Prince’s reply.

The Third Prince turned back his attention to Tang Li Xue.

His eyes turned red and teary when he saw that Tang Li Xue was sitting in front of him in perfect good health.

The Third Prince was completely drowned in sorrow and depression after he received the news about Tang Li Xue’s death.

Since the Third Prince had met with Tang Li Xue in the Nightmare Forest, and they had helped each other to survive from assassination, he already regarded Tang Li Xue as his one and only fateful mate.

When he received the news that Tang Li Xue was imprisoned in Heavenly Prison by Jinyiwei’s guards, he immediately led his people to barge into Heavenly Prison in order to save Tang Li Xue.

Unfortunately, he bumped into the lunatics from the Blood God Cult instead and failed to save Tang Li Xue.

Later, he almost lost his mind in sorrow when he got the news that Tang Li Xue had died after she tried to escape from the Heavenly Prison in the middle of chaos caused by the Blood God Cult’s raid.

The Third Prince was so emotional as he saw the perfectly healthy Tang Li Xue sitting right in front of him.

The Third Prince suddenly rushed forward to hug Tang Li Xue tightly, so he could vent his longing and excitement.

But Tang Li Xue, who had completely recovered, could react and move much faster than the Third Prince, who was only in the Core Formation Stage.

Before the Third Prince could even touch the corner of Tang Li Xue’s clothes, she had already moved aside to dodge the Third Prince’s hug.

BANG~!

The Third Prince crashed hard into the carriage’s wall instead.

”Uh, Your Highness Third Prince... Are you sure you are okay? Should we just go back to the palace and let the Imperial Physician check on your condition?” The worried guard got closer to the carriage and asked again.

”No need! I am completely all right.” The Third Prince replied while rubbing his swollen forehead.

Tang Li Xue chuckled in amusement, but she immediately suppressed it.

”Where have you been all this time? I thought you had already...” The Third Prince asked Tang Li Xue in a worried tone.

Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as the Third Prince asked about her in a concerned tone.

To be honest, Tang Li Xue really did not want to meet with this Third Prince again.

The Third Prince might have saved her life in Nightmare Forest, but she had also spent 1000 Deity Coins to purchase a Recovery Pill from her System’s mall to save his life before, so they should have been even.

It should not be a problem if they treated each other normally like ordinary friends.

But this Third Prince clearly did not treat her like a mere ordinary friend.

His possessiveness of her was just too strong that Tang Li Xue felt suffocated.

Especially when she had stayed in the Imperial Palace before, the Third Prince basically treated her like a canary in a cage.

Tang Li Xue also understood that the situation was too tense at that time because of the fierce fight between the First Prince and the Second Prince, but she just did not like the way he had treated her when they lived together before.

”Err, so many things have happened after I escaped from the Heavenly Prison.” Tang Li Xue was too lazy to tell any fake story to the Third Prince, so she decided to just say something vague to him instead.

The Third Prince became even more dejected as he held Tang Li Xue’s fair and soft hand and uttered softly in a comforting tone: ”It is okay. I understand. It must be hard for you to survive until you can see me again right now. But don’t worry. Soon, I will make those Jinyiwei guards who imprisoned you and the Blood God Cult who hurt you pay for what they did to you.”

Tang Li Xue hastily pulled her hand from the Third Prince’s grasp while saying awkwardly: ”You... do not need to do anything for me. I also feel relieved that you are okay.”

The Third Prince smiled brightly. He felt really happy and excited after he heard that Tang Li Xue was also worried about him.

Just when the Third Prince wanted to chat with Tang Li Xue again...

Something suddenly jumped out from the shade inside the carriage and launched a sudden sneak attack on the Third Prince!

CLANG—!

Tang Li Xue made a move in reflex as she created a silvery white sword with her [Energy Manipulation] and used it to block the sudden sneak attack!

The sneak attacker was actually a person wearing black clothes from head to toe!

”What are you doing here with that guy?!” The sneak attacker secretly sent telepathy and asked Tang Li Xue with a surprised tone.

Tang Li Xue’s pink lips twitched slightly after she heard the familiar voice coming from the sneak attacker.

Tang Li Xue also replied to the sneak attacker using her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ”You... You are Feng Ying?! You guys surely move fast! This is only the first day, and you have already attempted to assassinate the Third Prince?!”

”Uhh... No, actually, we are not trying to kill the Third Prince yet. We just want to abduct the Third Prince and use him to lure the First Prince out of the palace.” Feng Ying explained to Tang Li Xue using telepathy.

Tang Li Xue was surprised and thought that their plan was not bad at all.

Just when Tang Li Xue was in a dilemma between letting Feng Ying abduct the Third Prince or not, the Third Prince had already taken out a talisman from his spatial ring and threw it to Feng Ying!

ROOOAAAAR—!

The talisman unleashed a golden dragon that pounced toward Feng Ying!

BOOOOM—!

The power of the talisman thrown by the Third Prince was surprisingly quite powerful!

Even though Feng Ying managed to block the golden dragon attack on time by condensing a shadow shield, but she was still tossed more than fifty meters until she crashed heavily into one of the buildings!

”Quickly catch that assassin!” The Third Prince ordered his personal guards.

A dozen of the Third Prince’s personal guards moved fast to capture the assassin, but unfortunately, they could no longer find any trace of the assassin, even after they carefully inspected the entire building and its surroundings.

The Third Prince’s luxurious imperial carriage was very sturdy, but more than half of it was destroyed because of the attack from [Golden the Dragon Talisman].

Just as the Third Prince and Tang Li Xue thought Feng Ying had already run away...

Feng Shuang suddenly jumped out from the shadow under the third Prince’s feet!

The Third Prince and all of his personal guards were caught completely off guard!

Who knew that Feng Shuang actually did not attack the Third Prince at all this time?!

She only grabbed a few strands of the Third Prince’s hair in one swift move, and then she submerged back into the shadow again.

”Your Highness Third Prince! Are you all right?!” The surrounding guards asked anxiously as they hastily moved to cover the Third Prince.

In Tang Li Xue’s opinion, the guards’ covering movement was completely futile since both Feng Shuang and Feng Ying could move freely in the shadows.

If they seriously wanted to assassinate the Third Prince, then these Core Formation Stage guards would be utterly powerless to stop them.

The Third Prince completely lost his mood to travel outside the palace after meeting Tang Li Xue and being attacked by the assassin twice.

In the end, the Third Prince was escorted back to the Imperial Palace with Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue followed the Third Prince closely as she thought deeply about what Feng Shuang had done just now.

Then she recalled when Ji Xuanming introduced himself.

Ji Xuanming had said at that time: ”I can kill any target with my curse from afar, so you’d better be careful.”

’Feng Shuang grabbed the Third Prince’s hair just now. Is it for Ji Xuanming to use? So, Ji Xuanming needs the Third Prince’s hair to curse him from afar?’ Tang Li Xue concluded.
