A great shockwave exploded wave after wave, even the mighty lion was blasted back a few meters by it and it quickly ran away in fear!
Of course, it was not like Tang Li Xue awakened some kind of OP godly skills or something like that.
Actually, she ended up no better than the lion, she was almost blasted even farther away than the lion but she quickly tried using her claws to hold onto the giant tree's bark.
She still ended up blasted away in a sorry state in the end, but at least she landed in the nearby bushes so she was not hurt that badly.
HP: 23/50
'Damn! My HP decreased by 27 points in total! Fortunately my max HP has already increased to 50, if my max HP was still 20 like before I might already be dead by now!'
She had already forgotten that she just stood in front of an adult lion a few seconds ago and almost entered its stomach!
Tang Li Xue quickly checked her surroundings and, after confirming there was no more lion in sight, she sighed in relief and carefully checked the source of that great shockwave.
Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes brightened as she saw several humans floating above the forest using flying swords as their footing.
Are these the famous legendary cultivators?!
In her previous world, Tang Li Xue only saw cultivators flying on TV or in manhua!
Now they were no longer fictional but real! Tang Li Xue's topaz eyes glinted with determination as she clenched her tiny paw.
'Someday I will be like them! No, this lady would certainly surpass them and become a Fox Deity!'

.
"This seat would never expect that the wise and righteous sects' elders would use such a despicable tactic as ambushing and ganging up against one person." The black-robed young man lazily said as his handsome face smiled coldly.
"Shut up! You are only a brat from an evil and treacherous sect, you have no right to judge us!" the red-robed old man shouted in anger.
The black-robed young man squinted his obsidian black eyes and said "There is no need to pretend. This Seat knows you got the information about This Seat's route from the traitors in This Seat's 'evil and treacherous' sect. So in other words you are colluding with the 'evil and treacherous' sect! Is This Seat right, Mister Right and Righteous?" His words were full of mockery and disdain.
There were ten elders with high-ranked cultivation here and the black-robed man only had his trusted aide by his side. It was obvious that this ambush was planned very carefully and the enemy already knew long ago that he would certainly take this route.
The ten elders widened their eyes in surprise.
They clearly did not think that this young man had already guessed that there were traitors in his sect's ranks but that did not matter now because the talented young man would certainly die today!
He had to die! Since if this genius young man grew up, he would surely become a peerless expert in both pen and sword!
All ten elders' eyes turned cold and they did not bother to conceal their thick killing intent as they charged at the Black-robed young man at the same time.
The black-robed young man calmly took out his crimson red sword and his trusted aide also took out his black dual-daggers.
"DIE!!!" All the elders were shouting and releasing their martial art skills at the same time.
[Condensed Flame Slash], [Icicle Pierce], [Black Tiger Claw], [Earth Spike], [Wind Shredder] and more.....
Ten martial art skills focused on the black-robed man but he only sneered in disdain while slowly raised his fist.
[Asura King Fist]
BBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!
'Holysh*t! This time the shockwave would probably be far greater than before!' Tang Li Xue, who was still leisurely watching the battle from quite far away, quickly ran to find cover and hid behind a nearby giant tree.
All ten elders flew backward a few meters but they quickly stabilized their footing on their flying swords while their faces turned pale for a bit. But at the same time, the black-robed man did not even move an inch.
It was ten against one!
And it looks like the black-robed man still held a bit of advantage over his opponents!
'BADASS!!! This is what a man should be!' Tang Li Xue's eyes shone with adoration as she quietly admired the handsome black-robed man from behind the giant tree.
"This is it? Now it's my turn!" The black-robed man was smiling coldly and slowly raised his blood-red sword. His smile was full of confidence and charm, even Tang Li Xue went into a daze and was charmed by his smile.
'Cool, Handsome, Strong! Full marks! Oh... My dreamy man!' Thought Tang Li Xue as she wiped the drool that dripped from her fox muzzle.
[Heaven Splitting Wave!]
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Five of the elders' bodies exploded like gore filled balloons in the sky, their blood and organs splattering everywhere.
But there was no joy in the black-robed man…
"Cough... Cough..." The black-robed man coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood and slowly turned back while his expression became even frostier.
He saw there was a black dagger stabbed into his left shoulder, it looked like the assailant wanted to impale his heart through his back.
"Why..." The black-robed man wanted to ask why he did this but he stopped his words midway and sighed. Yes... the assailant was the black-robed man's aide that stood behind him all this time.
"This subordinate... Sorry... I was forced! They... They held my family and told me to....." The aide tried to explain but the black-robed man did not want to hear what he said anymore.
[Asura King Fist]
BAAAAAANG!!!
The aide wanted to dodge but he could not since the space around him was already locked down by the black-robed man. The aide's head burst like a watermelon under the black-robed man's fist.
No mercy!
The black-robed man's action was so decisive that it sent a chill down the spine of all the spectators who saw it, including Tang Li Xue.
'Cruel and decisive! I like him even more! He is really my type! Truly worthy of being this Lady Deity Candidate's concubine!' Tang Li Xue nodded as she sent two thumbs to him in her heart.
The black-robed man coughed out a few more mouthfuls of blood after he killed his aide and this time his blood was black! It looked like the black dagger that was stabbed into his back actually had a very lethal poison smeared on it.
"He... He is poisoned! Look! He is dying! Let's give him the killing blow together!" One of the remaining five elders shouted and awakened the rest from their daze.
"KIIIIIIIILLLL!!!" Five elders shouted as their eyes turned red, full of killing intent.
"Meddlesome insects! Scram!" The black-robed man said angrily, he spun his blood-colored sword furiously and his sword's color turned even redder.
"Nine Petal Blood Lotus, Devour!" The black-robed man murmured as his blood-colored sword began to emit intense crimson light and devoured the five elders that were charging towards him.
Those close could not see what the intense crimson light's form truly was, but Tang Li Xue saw it!
'Crazy!!! That Nine Petal Blood Lotus swallowed all those old men in a single moment, not leaving anything behind! All of those old men are pretty strong but that handsome man is truly dominating!' Tang Li Xue gasped in shock.
Yes, the intense crimson light's true form was the Nine Petal Blood Lotus shadow.
After he drew out even more of his strength, the poison inside the black-robed man's body spread even further and his consciousness began to fade away.
As the black-robed man passed out, his Qi also stopped supplying power to the flying sword under his feet and he began to plunge downward.
'Oy... Oy... Oy... You won't die after showing off such a cool performance, right handsome?' Tang Li Xue sighed, 'How could you fulfill your duty as this Lady Deity Candidate's concubine if you die here?!'
Tang Li Xue quickly activated her [Dash] skill and ran at full speed toward where the black-robed man fell.

[Dash skill has increased to Lv2]
Tang Li Xue carefully approached the black-robed man that was lying still in the nearby bushes.
The long, scattered, silky, black hair combined with his pale, white skin was truly a perfect combination, his eyes also had long, black lashes that enhanced his handsomeness to another level.
She poked the black-robed man's face a few times with her tiny paw and only relaxed after confirming that the black-robed man was really unconscious.
'Uwaaah... This man is... super handsome in close up! Shhhh... Compared to him, the good-looking actors and models from earth are nothing more than pigs!'
Tang Li Xue wiped her drool with her furry paw and started to inspect whether he was still breathing or not.
The black-robed man was still alive, albeit barely hanging on by a thread.
His wound was pretty bad though, the dagger was stabbed deep inside his back and the poison that had been smeared on it appeared extremely lethal!
The blood that gushed out from his back and mouth had turned completely black now!
Tang Li Xue put her paw on her chin then started to consider whether to save him or not. Looking at the black-robed man's condition, if she did not help him now, he would certainly die! But even if Tang Li Xue tried to help him, there was no guarantee that she could save him. In the end, if she failed, she would have done this hard, thankless job for nothing!
'SAVE HIM! It will be a waste of heaven's gifts if a guy this handsome dies here after all!' Tang Li Xue decided in her heart.
*DING!
[Quest: (Samaritan) Cure the handsome human, and restore his health!]
[Difficulty: Hard]
[Requirement: [Identify] and [Herbalism] skills]
[Reward: Level +3, Skill Point +3, Stat Point +9, 100 Deity Coins]
[Time remaining: 00:23:46]
'What?! It needs special skills too?! There goes my remaining 2 skill points flying away…" Tang Li Xue sighed, 'There is even a timer now! 23 minutes remaining?! Dammit!'
Tang Li Xue tapped her skills window with a heavy heart. She hesitated for a moment and glanced at the pale-faced, black-robed man before she gritted her teeth then used her remaining 2 skill points to buy the [Identify] and [Herbalism] skills.
The [Identify] skill was actually used to identify a beast's species, its strengths, weaknesses, and current HP.
While the [Herbalism] skill's purpose was to give the user the information to identify herbs and knowledge on their effects.
In other words, Tang Li Xue now had the ability to identify what kind of beasts and herbs would be needed to cure the black-robed man.
[Heart Melting Black Poison]
[Description: Extremely lethal poison! Once this black poison enters someone's heart, no matter how high that victim's cultivation is, the victim would certainly die instantly!]
'What a vicious poison! But according to the dagger's position in his back, he should be dead by now…'
The bulb in Tang Li Xue's mind suddenly lit up as a medical term from her previous world came to mind.
Situs Inversus![1]
'Sigh… What a lucky guy?! '
If his heart was positioned normally, this black-robed man would have instantly died under this black poison and that aide would have been the one that survived in the end.
However, because the aide stabbed the wrong place, the black-robed man had enough time to seal the black poison with his Qi and counter-killed his aide.
Though now the Qi's seal was fading away and the black poison had already begun to spread again. But the seal still managed to slow it down and buy Tang Li Xue some time.
'Handsome, if this Lady really saves you later, you must remember that you cannot be ungrateful, okay?! Even the prince in that mermaid story knew how to repay the mermaid... Though if you dare to marry another woman, I would [bite] your little sausage off!' Tang Li Xue silently admonished in her mind.
She quickly picked a route deeper into the Moonlight Forest and dashed off. She did not need to worry about leaving the black-robed man alone since the shockwaves from before already scared all the nearby beasts away. Therefore he should be safe for a while. The deeper she went, the denser the undergrowth and trees in the forest became but this was also why Tang Li Xue chose to go deeper.
[Mystic Grass]
[Function: Can cure slight fevers , can be used to concoct sleeping drugs]
[Side Effect: Mild dizziness for a few hours, can be neutralized by boiling it in water]
'!!!'
So this was the effect of the [Herbalism] and [Identify] skills? So convenient! With this, it would be easier to find the poison's antidote.
But not this herb…
[Red-dotted Crystal Flower]
[Function:...]
Not this one either!
Tang Li Xue ran even deeper into Moonlight Forest and wasted more than ten minutes of the time limit but she still could not manage to find anything useful. Moonlight Forest was simply too vast, even if she explored it for tens of years; she still would not manage to comb through it all.
[Time remaining: 00:12:24]
'What to do?! What to do?! This is a waste of time! I would not be able to find anything even if I had a few days if I just search blindly depending on my luck like this!'
[Dash skill has increased to Lv3]
Tang Li Xue was panting and out of breath after using [Dash] continuously for the last ten minutes so she decided to take a breath and think.
'Wait!!! Luck!!!'
Tang Li Xue took the [Lucky Sticker] item out of her inventory.
[Author's note 1: Situs Inversus is a genetic condition in which the organs in the chest and abdomen are positioned in a mirror image from their normal positions. For example, the left atrium of the heart and the left lung are positioned on the body's right side.]
