Reincarnated As a Fox With System
Chapter 899: Two Solutions!

899  Chapter 899: Two Solutions!

Tang Li Xue instantly felt really dizzy, and she almost passed out again after she heard such a shocking truth.

The several female servants hastily held Tang Li Xue in panic before she could slip down and fall from the bed.

Right at this moment, the Third Prince suddenly entered the tent and saw the scene of Tang Li Xue almost fainting again while several female servants were holding her.

The Third Prince's expression turned cold as he glared at the several female servants and asked: "How dare you all do something rude to her! Do you all want to die so badly?!"

The several female servants quickly kneeled and kowtowed to the Third Prince.

"Please forgive us, Your Highness! But we... We really did not dare do anything to upset Young Miss!" The several female servants apologized while trembling in fear.

Tang Li Xue immediately realized that the situation deteriorated rapidly, and if she did not say something to help those female servants, they would certainly get punished by the Third Prince.

"It is not their fault. It is because I still feel unwell, so I almost fall down from the bed. Thankfully those servants react fast enough by holding me before I fall." Tang Li Xue explained to the Third Prince.

"Oh, I see. So, it is just my misunderstanding." The Third Prince smiled kindly while blushing deeply after he glanced at Tang Li Xue.

The Third Prince looked really kind and easygoing right now as if his previous anger and suffocating killing intent were just an illusion.

Then the Third Prince took a bowl brought by another female servant from outside before he sat right beside Tang Li Xue's bed.

"This is the nourishing soup made from more than a hundred herbs and flowers. Even though it cannot cure your illness, but at least it can help alleviate your pain a bit and give you some strength. Please try it!" The Third Prince explained while scooping the nourishing soup with the spoon in his hand and bringing it closer to Tang Li Xue's mouth.

 "Err, thank you very much for your concern, Brother, but I still have my hands so I can still eat by myself." Tang Li Xue muttered in shame as she took the bowl and spoon from the Third Prince and ate it by herself.

The Third Prince did not bother to say anything. He only sat there quietly while kept staring at Tang Li Xue with a silly smile and intoxicated expression on his face.

After Tang Li Xue finished eating the nourishing soup, the Third Prince let the female servants bring the bowl and spoon out while he told Tang Li Xue about her illness: "Young Miss... To be honest, your illness is quite complicated, and the physicians in this military camp cannot cure you with their mediocre medical skills."

"But you do not need to worry too much about it. I have a plan to return to the Imperial Palace tomorrow morning. If Young Miss does not mind it, I can bring you back to the Imperial City with me. I am sure the Imperial physicians from the Imperial Palace should be able to cure your illness." The Third Prince suggested to Tang Li Xue.

"That is..." Tang Li Xue hesitated for a while before she continued: "Can you please give me some time to think about it? I will definitely give you the answer tomorrow morning."

The Third Prince nodded in understanding and said: "No problem. By the way, I am the Third Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty, Wei Yunfei. May I know your name too, Young Miss?"

"Th... Third Prince~?! Err, my name is Tang Li Xue. I... Well, I am just an ordinary fox." Tang Li Xue was surprised when she heard the Third Prince's identity, and she also felt really ashamed when she introduced herself.

She felt like a mere commoner who introduced herself to the noble prince.

Tang Li Xue thought the Third Prince would look down on her because of it, but surprisingly, the Third Prince was still kind and gentle to her as usual which made Tang Li Xue feel relieved.

It would be really bad if the Third Prince suddenly changed his mind and decided to kick her out of this camp when she was still in this condition.

The Third Prince and Tang Li Xue chatted for half an hour or so.

Well... Actually, the Third Prince was the one who mostly talked to Tang Li Xue excitedly while Tang Li Xue mostly heard it carefully to get more information about this unknown place.

If not for Tang Li Xue to show an exhausted expression and dozing off several times, the Third Prince might want to accompany Tang Li Xue to chat until the next day.

This was not Tang Li Xue's deliberate act in order to drive away the Third Prince. She was truly exhausted and felt sleepy because her current sickly condition made her easily get tired.

The Third Prince clearly looked like he still wanted to stay and chat with Tang Li Xue, but he still resisted the urge and excused himself to let Tang Li Xue rest.

After the Third Prince left Tang Li Xue's tent leaving only a few female servants to attend to her, Tang Li Xue lay down on her bed and closed her topaz blue eyes, but she did not immediately fall asleep.

'System, to be honest with you, I really do not like this current situation. I am stranded alone in an unknown place. I am also in my human form with irresistible charm and beauty, but I do not even have any strength to protect myself right now! Is there something I can do to recover and regain my strength faster?!' Tang Li Xue asked her System in a desperate tone.

[It is easy for Host to say that, but there is actually no quick and easy solution for Host's condition.]

[Host currently only has two solutions.]

[First, Host can replace someone to drain the destructive space energy out of Host's body just like what Host had done previously to the boy who got hit by Void Piercing Arrow.]

[But the risk of doing this thing is very high because if the destructive space energy is not handled properly, it will enter that helper's body instead, and that helper will end up dying or badly crippled. So, no one would probably dare to do this unless they really care about Host, and they are ready to sacrifice their life for Host.]

'I am alone in this continent, where the heck can I replace someone to do that for me?! Pass~!' Tang Li Xue angrily rejected the first solution from her System.

Actually, the first solution might not be completely impossible if she asked for help from her companion pets such as Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia.

But just like what her System had said, the risk of doing that was very high, so Tang Li Xue was not willing for Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia to sacrifice themselves just to help her recover.

'Then what if I ask Little Loki to devour the space energy inside my body instead? It should be possible, right?' Tang Li Xue asked her System curiously.

[Host, do you want to get swallowed by the Taotie's cub so badly? If Host really thinks that inexperienced little Taotie's cub can devour the space energy inside Host's body without swallowing Host as a whole, then please do so.]

Tang Li Xue swallowed her saliva in fear as she thought: 'Oh, well... Let's just forget about that since I still wanted to stay alive at least until I became the real Fox Deity. Oh, right... What about the second solution, System?'

[The second solution is for Host to refine the destructive space energy in the Host's own body by using the Space elemental cultivation technique.]

[This should be the safest and most reasonable solution, but it is a long grinding process that requires patience, diligence, and persistence because it would definitely take quite a long time.]

Tan Li Xue suddenly opened her bright topaz blue eyes in excitement, but they immediately dimmed again after she heard System's latter words.

'It would take a long time, huh? How long do you think it would be?' Tang Li Xue asked again.

[It is hard to estimate how long it would be since the time needed depends on many factors such as the grade of the Space elemental cultivation technique, Host's persistence to practice every day, the foods or body supplements consumed by Host, and so on.]

[At first, Host would not be able to refine much destructive space energy because of Host's current sickly body.]

[But at the later stage, the refining speed should speed up faster and faster as the Host's body grows stronger and healthier.]

Tang Li Xue stopped asking or talking to her System as she began to think about her next plan.

Since the first solution was not possible, Tang Li Xue could only choose the second solution right now.

'According to System, there are many factors that will affect my speed of refining the destructive space energy in my body.'

'The grade of the Space elemental cultivation technique should not be a big problem because I still have a [Premium Cultivation Voucher] in my System's storage.'

'I can just use [Premium Cultivation Voucher] to choose any Space elemental cultivation technique I need.'

'The problem is the foods or body supplements needed to nourish my sickly body, so I can speed up the refining process.'

'Ais, I have no money to buy anything, no power to protect myself, and no food to feed myself.'

'Not to mention I am also not familiar with this Azure Mist Continent yet.'

Tang Li Xue could only shake her head helplessly as she whispered in her heart: 'Sigh, it seems I have no choice other than following that prince around for now.'

Poor Tang Li Xue~! (>w<) But at least, we will get a new journey in a new place, so don't miss the next chapter~!
