Chapter 768: Teacher Li Wei's Request!
But Teacher Li Wei shook his head and said in a frustrated tone: "It is not that easy. We still have to wait for the right time to open the secret space."
Tang Li Xue sighed in disappointment after she heard Teacher Li Wei's reply.
"So, how long do we have to wait for that right time to open the secret space?" Tang Li Xue asked in a curious tone.
"Soon! The payment to open your treasure boxes is actually closely related to this matter." Teacher Li Wei stated to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked cautiously: "So, does Teacher Li need my help to open the secret space? But I think my current skill and strength are still quite limited, so how could I help Teacher Li to open the secret space?"
Despite her words, Tang Li Xue still secretly hoped that the plot would go to something like only the beasts under Beast Lord level could enter the secret space.
Under the Beast Lord, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that her current strength could be placed at the top.
However, Teacher Li Wei rolled his eyes disdainfully instead and uttered to Tang Li Xue in a mocking tone: "You really think too much of yourself! How could I need such a pipsqueak like you to open the secret space?!"
Tang Li Xue was instantly deflated by Teacher Li Wei's words.
Teacher Li Wei cleared his throat and began to explain it clearly to Tang Li Xue: "There will be a congratulation ceremony to celebrate about finding the secret space tomorrow. I need you to accompany me to attend that congratulation ceremony as the payment to open those treasure boxes. How about it?"
"I just need to do that?" Tang Li Xue asked in disbelief.
Tang Li Xue was very surprised since the task was too easy for her to do.
Teacher Li Wei could easily guess what was Tang Li Xue thinking, so he immediately explained further: "If you think that task is too easy for you then you are completely wrong. Do you remember Zi Yan girl you had met in the Inscriptionist Association before? She would come too into this celebration ceremony!"
It took a while for Tang Li Xue to recall Zi Yan before she exclaimed in a playful tone: "I see~! So, you planned to use me as a shield again to keep that Zi Yan away from you~!"
Tang Li Xue instantly understood Teacher Li Wei's intention this time since he had already done it once before.
Teacher Li Wei sighed as he complained about his frustration to Tang Li Xue: "The matter about the secret space is too important because it involves an unimaginable amount of wealth and resources. Zi Yan's older sister, Zi Hua holds great authority as Inscriptionist Association President. She would not let go of the chance to take a bite of this secret space."
Tang Li Xue nodded in understanding.
It was not strange that many people would want to grab some benefits from this secret space.
That Zi Hua would definitely pushed Zi Yan to approach Teacher Li Wei in that congratulation ceremony, while Teacher Li Wei wanted to use Tang Li Xue as a shield to push away Zi Yan.
It seemed no matter if it was Human Race, Beast Race, or any other race, something like wealth and resources would definitely make anyone greedy.
Teacher Li Wei took out a light blue dress from his space pouch and gave it to Tang Li Xue while saying: "You can take this dress. That congratulation ceremony will be attended by many foxes with high authorities, so you have to make yourself more presentable in order not to embarrass yourself... and me."
Tang Li Xue shamelessly took the light blue dress from Teacher Li Wei.
Anyway, she would wear this dress to act as Teacher Li Wei's shield, so there was no need for her to be embarrassed about taking it.
"This dress is actually a spirit treasure?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in astonishment as she caressed the light blue dress in awe.
Not only the light blue dress was very beautiful but it was actually a spirit treasure with more than 9 arrays engraved on it.
Moreover, the light blue color perfectly matched Tang Li Xue's mesmerizing topaz blue eyes, and the size of the dress perfectly suited the size of her body.
Tang Li Xue suspected that Teacher Li Wei had already planned to use her as his shield in this congratulation ceremony long ago.
Even if she did not come here to ask for his help, Teacher Li Wei would definitely come looking for her soon and use the previous two requests to force her to agree to do it.
After telling that Tang Li Xue had to come here again in the afternoon tomorrow, Teacher Li Wei finally let Tang Li Xue go back to her home and kicked her out of his residence.
The sky had long turned dark, so Tang Li Xue hurriedly returned to the residential building, but she did not immediately go back to her room.
Tang Li Xue went to the luxurious restaurant on the first floor and let Yaya out of her system's pet space.
Both Yaya and Little Loki had helped her so much in the Foxes Hunting Festival, but compared to her bountiful harvests that improved her strength greatly, both Yaya and Little Loki did not get much in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
In the Garden City, Little Loki had also obtained bountiful harvests, and it even managed to empty the Gu Family's entire treasury warehouse.
Tang Li Xue's guilt for Little Loki had also faded away because of it, but she still had not found any way to make up for her guilt to Yaya until now.
Tang Li Xue could only treat Yaya to eat a lot of delicacies containing thick spiritual energy in this luxurious restaurant to temporarily ease her guilt towards Yaya.
As for where the pauper Tang Li Xue could obtain so many credits...
The previous S-Grade urgent mission might have been extremely difficult to complete, but the reward was actually very considerable.
There was no doubt that the resources in the sea were much richer than the land, so Zhu Yan's father, as one of the Sea Beast Kings, was clearly an extremely rich guy.
For his favorite daughter, he did not hesitate to pay a high price for thisS-Grade urgent mission.
Even though Instructor Mei Lan grabbed 60% of the rewards, Bingbing and Silly Fox each only obtained 10%, while Tang Li Xue obtained 20% of the rewards, but it was still more than enough for Tang Li Xue to squander for a while.
After eating delicious foods until their stomach was about to burst, Tang Li Xue brought the bloated Yaya back into her room.
In the room space, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy was still diligently practicing the Profound Law of Heat and Cold in [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] in the courtyard.
Half of the entire courtyard was covered by a thick layer of ice, while the remaining half was burned by the golden flame of the sun.
Tang Li Xue did not bother to interrupt her perfect copy's practice and entered the house with Yaya.
Yaya immediately fell asleep on the soft bed, but Tang Li Xue planned to practice making intermediate amulets instead tonight with the jade amulets given by Teacher Li Wei.
Unfortunately, the result was far from Tang Li Xue's expectations, and she always failed because her mind was still occupied with the Fallen Ancient Sect's Secret Space.
Tang Li Xue bit the inscription pen in her grasp absentmindedly while muttering: "I really hope the star energies contained in the Gu Family's treasures would be enough for me to evolve into a Rare-grade beast..."
"But if it is not enough, then it seems I can only rely on my connection with Teacher Li Wei to try to participate in the expedition of the Fallen Ancient Sect's Secret Space."
"There should be enough precious treasures that contain star energies in the Fallen Ancient Sect's Secret Space, right?"
Tang Li Xue could only put her last hope in that secret space if the Gu Family's treasures was not enough for her to evolve into a Rare-grade beast.
After all, she had to accumulate more than 999 star energies in her body before she could evolve to [Imperial Sun, Moon, and Stars Fox].
Although Tang Li Xue did not know for sure how many 999 star energies were, but those were surely an astronomical amount.
Since she failed to make any intermediate amulets after more than fifty tries, Tang Li Xue immediately decided to give up and practice the combination of [Essence Devouring Technique], [Art of Concealment], and [Energy Manipulation] instead.
Tang Li Xue had a hunch that the combination of these techniques would surely be earth-shattering, not at all lost with [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula].
If she could perfectly combine and even comprehend the profound law behind them, Tang Li Xue was 100% sure that the ability produced by them would be extremely powerful beyond everyone's imagination.
Tang Li Xue had long been greedy for Little Loki's [Heaven's Devour], so she really hoped that she could create an extremely powerful technique with Little Loki's [Heaven's Devour] as the base prototype.
Of course, it was only a rough idea in her mind for now. It should be impossible for the current her to create a technique as powerful as Tao Tie's signature divine ability, but no one could tell what could happen in the future, right?
Tang Li Xue did not know that her decision to practice those combination techniques would be really useful soon enough.
