"Junior Sister Li, I have a really bad feeling about this place. We should be more careful." Lu Xingchen warned Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy in a solemn tone.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes while replying: "All right, smart guy. Isnât that already obvious?!"
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy did not need Lu Xingchen to warn her because she could also sense it with her [Extrasensory Perception].
The more powerful her strength... or rather the higher her Spirit stat, the better the effect of her [Extrasensory Perception].
Lu Xingchen chuckled in amusement, but he still vigilantly raised the white sword created by Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy right in front of his chest, so he could timely react to any incoming danger.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen stepped deeper into the huge dark room.
"Watch out, Junior Sister Li!" Lu Xingchen shouted as he sensed something suddenly pounce at them at an extremely fast speed!
Lu Xingchen swung his sword to repel it, but that creature was too fast, so it easily dodged Lu Xingchenâs sword attack and rushed toward Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy in only a few milliseconds!
Even Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy did not have enough time to react at all!
When the creature settled on the perfect copyâs shoulder, Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy immediately recognized that small creature.
Yes, this small black creature was actually Little Loki!
"You have almost scared me to death, Little Loki!" Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy sighed in relief before she gritted her pearl-white teeth and reprimanded Little Loki unhappily.
"Nyaow~!" Little Loki nonchalantly yawned as usual, pretending as if it did not hear the perfect copyâs scold.
Then Little Loki looked as if it remembered something, but before it could tell Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy about it...
BOOOMâ!
A black skeleton in a luxurious golden dragon robe and golden crown broke out from one of the rusted gates inside the huge room!
It was clear at a glance that the previous identity of this corrupted black skeleton should not be that simple!
From its words, there was a really high chance that this corrupted black skeleton might be even the skeleton of this fallen ancient kingdomâs emperor!
"Insolent thief... give... back... my.... throne..." The corrupted black skeleton muttered as it dragged its feet and walked to Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copyâs pink lips twitched as she glared at Little Loki and asked: "Little Loki, donât tell me that you..."
Before Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy could finish her words, Little Loki already put on an oblivious expression, shrugged its shoulder, and shook its head to signify that it really did not understand what the corrupted black skeleton was talking about.
If Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy just met Little Loki recently, she might have already been fooled by Little Lokiâs convincing acting.
"You damn kitten really know how to make trouble! I am going to settle the score with you later!" Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy stated angrily to Little Loki.
Even though the corrupted black skeleton did not look that strong, but Lu Xingchen and Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy did not dare to attack it carelessly.
"How dare you... Quickly... Return my... GROOOOAAAARâ!" The corrupted black skeleton suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar that greatly shook the entire underground!
Lu Xingchen and Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy immediately felt nervous because they were worried that the entire underground would completely collapse!
Thankfully, the earthquake stopped after a while.
Even though this old underground was not maintained for a very long time, it was surprisingly still quite sturdy.
Lu Xingchen and Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy sighed in relief, but after a few moments, an even greater earthquake shook the entire underground again!
RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ!
Before Lu Xingchen and Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy could realize what had happened, hundreds of corrupted black skeleton soldiers in the imperial guardâs armor flooded into the huge room as if they were summoned by the corrupted black skeletonâs emperor!
"This is really not looking good for us!" Lu Xingchen slowly retreated close to Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and whispered solemnly to her.
"Run! Letâs run away quickly from here!" Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy uttered to Lu Xingchen as she hastily turned around and ran away in the direction where she had entered the huge room before.
Anyway, Little Loki should have already plundered the most precious things in this place since it had come to this place first before her and Lu Xingchen.
It should not be worth it for both of them to fight against the corrupted skeleton of the emperor, along with all of its skeletons of imperial guards, just to grab Little Lokiâs leftovers.
Unfortunately, it would not be that easy for them to get out of the tigerâs den after they stole the food from the tigerâs mouth.
Before Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen could reach their way back, the skeletons of imperial guards already surrounded them completely from all sides!
The skeletons of imperial guards kept running in a circle to form a profound battle formation that trapped Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen inside the circle!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen could sense that the aura of the imperial guardsâ skeletons merged rapidly with each other to form a giant cage to trap them!
Their aura and pressure kept soaring very quickly!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen realized that they could not just let the imperial guardsâ skeletons do whatever they wanted, or they might really not be able to get out of here alive!
[Crescent Moon Cleave]â!
First Form of [Sin Severing Sword Drawing Slash]â!
Both Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Lu Xingchen unleashed their skill to attack the imperial guardsâ skeletons, but...
CLAAANGâ!
Their attacks struck an invisible wall instead and failed to hit the imperial guardsâ skeletons!
"It seems our attack can no longer hit them! What to do now?" Lu Xingchen asked Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy in a solemn tone.
Lu Xingchen might not be able to get out of this invisible cage, which was formed by the battle formation, but it was not so for Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Little Loki, since both of them had teleportation skills.
However, Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy clearly could not just leave Lu Xingchen alone here, so she looked around quickly to find a way out for them.
Then her topaz blue eyes locked on the emperorâs corrupted skeleton.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy used [Void Shrinking Step], and her slender, elegant figure disappeared!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy instantly appeared a few hundred meters closer to the emperorâs corrupted skeleton!
The imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons moved quickly and brandished their sharp blades to attack Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy subconsciously threw her punch to counter their attacks!
[Moon Shattering Blast] plus Profound Law of Earthâ!
BAAANGâ!
Surprisingly, the strength of the imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons was much stronger than Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy had expected!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy was thrown more than a dozen meters backward!
The other imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons slashed their blades and attacked Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy from behind!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy somersaulted in mid-air to avoid their attacks, kicked their blades, and used their strength to propel her slender body forward!
Several imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons quickly formed a wall right in front of Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy to prevent her from getting closer to the emperorâs corrupted skeleton and thrust their blades at Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy used [Moonlight Flickering Dance Step] to gracefully spin her body and jump upward to dodge several imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletonsâ blades thrust!
"Damn it! They are much tougher than I thought! Hey, Little Loki! Can you stop watching and help me out quickly?!" Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy gritted her pearl-white teeth in frustration and asked for Little Lokiâs help.
Unfortunately, Little Loki was currently truly unable to help Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy.
It was mainly because Little Loki had devoured too many good things today, so it was very sleepy right now.
In fact, Little Loki almost could not hold on anymore and fell into a deep sleep on the spot if they were not currently in a dire situation right now.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy almost exploded in anger when she saw that Little Loki was dozing off on her shoulder instead.
Before Tang Li Xueâs perfect copyâs feet could even touch the ground, more than a dozen imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons already charged toward her from all directions!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy did not have a choice but to use [Shadow Flash] to instantly teleport to the shadow of the corrupted black skeletonâs emperor!
Previously, Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy wanted to save her [Shadow Flash] as a last resort, so she could escape even if she failed to stop the imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons by killing the corrupted black skeletonâs emperor later.
"It is all or nothing!" Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy muttered solemnly as she threw a powerful punch toward the corrupted black skeletonâs emperorâs head!
[Moon Shattering Blast] plus Profound Law of Earthâ!
BAAANGâ!
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy thought the corrupted black skeletonâs emperor should be much weaker than the imperial guardsâ corrupted skeletons!
But now, she realized that she was completely wrong!
The corrupted black skeletonâs emperor actually managed to catch her powerful punch easily with its bone hand!
