Chapter 706: The Absolute Law of Survival!
706 Chapter 706: The Absolute Law of Survival!
Even Little Loki and Yaya also joined their fun, and Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy hugged them while clamoring she already had three concubines out of nowhere.
Silly Fox tried to snuggle close to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy with them, saying that he was willing to become her fourth concubine, but he only got kicked away by Tang Li Xue instead.
“This Handsome Young Master Tang is a normal straight man~!” Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy stated smugly to Silly Fox as she went deeper into her role as a handsome young master.
Silly Fox could only put on the wronged expression and draw a circle with his finger at the corner of the room alone.
While the others were laughing and joking together, the real Tang Li Xue began to discuss their next plan seriously with Instructor Mei Lan.
“Err… Instructor Lan, how could my perfect copy supposed to sneak back into the Gu Family’s mansion? It should be impossible for her to enter the Gu Family’s mansion as a lowly servant while looking like this, right?” Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a skeptical tone.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes while replying: “Of course not~! How can she woo Princess Yan Fei as a lowly servant?!”
Then Instructor Mei Lan took a pamphlet and gave it to Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue took the pamphlet from Instructor Mei Lan with a confused look, but she immediately got it after she read the pamphlet.
The pamphlet was about the Gu Family recruiting warriors and cultivators to fight against Beast Tide.
It seemed the Gu Family’s experts already made their move to look at Gu Shengxin’s mother and little sister yesterday night, but the Beast Tide was too fierce, and they could only barely make progress until now.
In the end, the Gu Family decided to hire as many wandering warriors and casual cultivators as they could to fight against Beast Tide.
Their reward was also very generous.
1000 low-tier spirit stones for any warriors and cultivators with cultivation below the Acupuncture Opening Stage.
10 mid-tier spirit stones or 10,000 low-tier spirit stones for Foundation Establishment Stage experts.
100 mid-tier spirit stones or 100,000 low-tier spirit stones for Core Formation Stage experts.
As of Nascent Soul Stage, it should be almost impossible for any wandering warriors and casual cultivators to reach this cultivation level in Lightwind Continent.
The reason for that was because they lacked almost everything from the cultivation techniques inheritance to any resources needed for breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage without any proper backer like 4 evil sects and 5 righteous sects.
Anyway, Tang Li Xue also thought the reward was very generous.
Not to mention, the recruited wandering warriors and casual cultivators could harvest more benefits if they killed many beasts and sold their bodies later.
“I see… So, Instructor Lan wants my perfect copy to join this recruitment as a casual cultivator and let me show my strength to woo Princess Yan Fei.” Tang Li Xue muttered while nodding her head in understanding.
But Instructor Mei Lan shook her head to deny it and explained: “The status of a casual cultivator is not attractive enough. We should make it as if your clone is a wandering young master with hidden noble status and join this recruitment to look for fun.”
Tang Li Xue widened her topaz blue eyes in astonishment.
She thought that Instructor Mei Lan was really too meticulous.
But Tang Li Xue frowned deeper as she thought of a crucial problem.
“Instructor Lan, if my perfect copy joins this recruitment, it means she must kill other beasts later… Is it really all right for my perfect copy to do that?” Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan with a confused expression.
Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and said: “Every Beast Tide consists of at least several thousands or even tens of thousands of beasts. Every time they clash with human cultivator armies, hundreds or thousands of them would surely die. So, what if you kill a few dozen of them?!”
Instructor Mei Lan warned all of her three students by saying: “In this world, only the strong can survive, while the weak will perish sooner or later. This is an absolute law that applies to all creatures, whether beasts, humans, or undead.”
“Don’t think that the other beast would always let you go just because you are from the Fox Clan. You can look at a snake eating a rabbit, or an eagle eating a snake. All of them are from Beast Race, so why do they fight and eat each other?!”
“Will powerful human-race immortal cultivators or undead creatures spare you just because you are only a young fox cub right now and wait until you are fully grown before having a fair fight against you? Nope~!”
“Therefore, all of you must have a greater sense of urgency, seize every second to get stronger as soon as possible before you perish as a weakling.”
The fun atmosphere in the room instantly turned gloomy after Instructor Mei Lan’s lecture.
Instructor Mei Lan’s words might be very harsh, but it was actually for her own students’ good.
Tang Li Xue also fell silent at this moment.
‘Sigh… Yes, that might not be nice to hear, but Instructor Lan’s words are absolutely right. Mercy is a luxury owned by the strong because only the strong would have the privilege to choose to spare or kill anyone weaker than themselves, while the weak could only accept the decision passively.’ Tang Li Xue thought and sighed in sorrow and depression.

Mercy is a luxury owned by the strong because only the strong would have the privilege to choose to spare or kill anyone weaker than themselves, while the weak could only accept the decision passively.’ Tang Li Xue thought and sighed in sorrow and depression.
Instructor Mei Lan chuckled in satisfaction when she saw her students’ urgent look to get stronger.
Then she clapped her hands and said: “All right~! I know you want to go back to our home and train to become stronger, but we have a lot of things to do right now~! So, let’s focus on completing this mission as soon as possible, so we can go back home quickly~!”
Instructor Mei Lan took out several sets of maid outfits and a set of bodyguard armor from her space pouch, then distributed them to her students.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lan kicked the Silly Fox out of the room to let him change in his own room.
Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Instructor Mei Lan wore white maid outfits and white veils to cover their beautiful face, while Silly Fox looked very handsome and intimidating in black bodyguard armor.
All of them secretly went out of the inn and headed to a remote place before Instructor Mei Lan took out a luxurious palanquin clad in gold from her space pouch.
Even though Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy was embarrassed, but she still followed Instructor Mei Lan’s order. She entered the palanquin and sat leisurely inside it.
Then, the real Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, Silly Fox, and Instructor Mei Lan lifted the luxurious palanquin and walked toward Gu Family’s mansion.
Everyone on the street quickly made way for them.
They might not know who was inside this luxurious palanquin but since it was escorted by three beautiful maids and a handsome bodyguard, they guessed that it was not someone they could offend.
…..
Meanwhile, the current Elder Yang did not know that Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy already headed to the Gu Family’s mansion again.
He became anxious after he could not find Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy this morning and almost flipped the entire Gu Family’s mansion upside down to look for her.
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect reported back to Elder Yang while helplessly shaking their heads and said: “Elder Yang, we really cannot find any trace of that servant. It seems like he suddenly vanished into thin air.”
Elder Yang’s expression turned gloomy and colder.
Even several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect felt breathless and their blood was churning violently by the pressure he emitted right at this moment.
It was truly a strange phenomenon since they clearly have much higher cultivation compared to Elder Yang, so how could Elder Yang make them feel very uncomfortable like this just by using his aura?!
Several Nascent Soul Stage elders from the Immortal Sword Sect stared at Elder Yang with more awe and respect in their eyes.
Most of them might had some doubt about their Patriarch’s decision to make Elder Yang the young patriarch of their Immortal Sword Sect before, but right now, they were completely convinced by that decision.
The current Elder Yang was only at the peak of the Core Formation Stage, but he could already force them to feel like this.
Doesn’t it mean he could easily defeat all of them after he breakthrough to Nascent Soul Stage later?!
What a scary young man~!
If Tang Li Xue knew that Elder Yang already reached the the peak of the Core Formation Stage right now and was only a half step away from the Nascent Soul Stage, she might have exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
It was because Elder Yang was only at the mid-level Core Formation Stage the last time they fought against each other before.
No one knew that Elder Yang actually got a lucky opportunity when he was copying 10,000 martial arts manuals in the library, and he managed to trigger an epiphany that improved his strength and cultivation level so much.
If Tang Li Xue knew it, she might complain about unfairness and curse Elder Yang for cheating.
She had to work so hard and spend so much effort, blood, tears, snots, and sweat to reach her current strength, but Elder Yang only needed to sit in the library and copy some manuals to become stronger! How could this be fair?!
There will be an interesting development in the next chapter, so do not miss it~! (>w<)
