Reincarnated as a fox with system

'Come, [Golden Winged Serpent]~!' Tang Li Xue urged with her thoughts.

"ROOAAAARR~!"

The [Golden Winged Serpent] roared majestically right after Tang Li Xue summoned it out!

'Ei, stop pretending and just come here quickly!' Tang Li Xue rebuked [Golden Winged Serpent] lightly.

[Golden Winged Serpent]'s unique skills and passive skills might be very favorable for the underwater battle, but its current strength was clearly far too weak to fight head-on against the huge blue snake.

Tang Li Xue had to admit that she had neglected [Golden Winged Serpent]'s growth lately since she was too focused on improving herself, Yaya, and Little Loki.

She decided that she would make up for it and began to level up [Golden Winged Serpent] after she evolved into [Rare]-Grade Beast later.

For now, Tang Li Xue could only let her [Golden Winged Serpent] merge with herself, so she would temporarily obtain [Golden Winged Serpent]'s unique skills and passive skills.

The [Golden Winged Serpent] turned into a flash of golden light and wrapped Tang Li Xue's arms, then the golden light transformed into a pair of golden gauntlets wrapped on Tang Li Xue's arms.

With [Golden Winged Serpent]'s skills such as [Water Control], [High Water Affinity], [Greater Water Sense], [Golden Scales], and [Dragon Blessing], Tang Li Xue's overall combat prowess in the water immediately soared by several times.

In fact, if the previous battle in the Medicine Garden Palace was in the open space, Tang Li Xue might choose to merge with [Golden Winged Serpent] like right now, so she could use [Summon Rain] and [Tidal Wave] before she could use [Golden Winged Serpent]'s various other skills into play too.

Unfortunately, the previous battle in the Medicine Garden Palace was in a closed space.

Moreover, Tang Li Xue was also afraid that the attack from the old swordsman, the scary woman, and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] would shatter the [Golden Winged Serpent] in its golden gauntlet form which would certainly affect her soul.

In the end, she decided not to use [Golden Winged Serpent] on the Medicine Garden Palace in the end after careful consideration.

But this huge blue snake was different since it was not as powerful as the old swordsman, the scary woman, and the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree], so the only factor that made it hard for Tang Li Xue to fight against it was because they were fighting in the deepwater right now.

In short, it was just the right situation and in front of the right opponent for [Golden Winged Serpent] to display its might.

The huge blue snake could move around freely at an extremely fast speed underwater, and it quickly approached Tang Li Xue from behind!

But this time, Tang Li Xue immediately sensed the huge blue snake's movement with her [Greater Water Sense]!

([Greater Water Sense]: Grant underwater breathing ability and also the ability to sense the vibrations in the water to detect everything and every movement inside the water. This skill was upgraded from ordinary [Water Sense] with a far wider radius.)

The huge blue snake opened its mouth widely as if it wanted to swallow Tang Li Xue in one gulp, but Tang Li Xue suddenly twisted her slender waist and turned sideways to dodge it.

When the huge blue snake passed right behind her back, Tang Li Xue turned her slim body in the opposite direction while throwing a punch at the huge blue snake's body!

[Moon Shattering Strike]~!

BAAAANG~!

The huge blue snake was thrown back several meters by Tang Li Xue's heavy strike!

Furthermore, Tang Li Xue's [Moon Shattering Strike] was the defense penetration attack that used the method of injecting her energy into the opponent's body and exploding her energy from inside, so her attack easily bypassed the huge blue snake's thick hard scales and injured it from inside.

The shrewd Little Loki immediately took this chance when the huge blue snake was slowed down by Tang Li Xue's strike to launch its attack!

Little Loki urged its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones to launch their attack at the same time!

[Flash and Slash] plus [Scythe Claw Qi]~!

PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

The attacks from Little Loki and its nine [Phantom Splitter] clones managed to leave criss-cross bleeding wounds on the huge blue snake's body!

'Good job, Little Loki! Let's finish it off together right now!' Tang Li Xue praised Little Loki as she swam swiftly closer toward the huge blue snake!

Unexpectedly, the huge blue snake let out a loud hissing sound all of a sudden!

HIIISS~! HIIIISS~! HIIISS~!

'Is it hissing in pain? No way, right? From its appearance, this snake is also a zombified creature, so it should not be able to feel any pain...' Tang Li Xue thought in suspicion as she felt a bad feeling about it.

Tang Li Xue imbued her Golden Gauntlet which looked like a dragon claw with [Sharp Edge Power] and unleashed [Moonlight Flash] toward the huge blue snake's neck!

PUUUFF~!

Tang Li Xue managed to slice the huge blue snake's neck, but she failed to sever its head since the wound was too shallow.

'Tsk~! It seems I have underestimated the hardness of this snake's scales too much.' Tang Li Xue clicked her tongue in annoyance.

But her body suddenly stiffened when she sensed the incoming danger with her [Extrasensory Perception] and a lot of movements from the deeper water depths with her [Greater Water Sense]!

'Damn... One, two, three, five, seven... Okay, forget it... There are a lot more huge snakes actually coming fast toward us?! So, this bast*rd was hissing to call for help just now?!' Tang Li Xue immediately concluded.

'You damn cowardly snake~! How could you bring your parents, relatives, and friends into our sacred duel?! Little Loki, let's run quickly before they reach us!' Tang Li Xue cursed before she warned Little Loki.

She even shamelessly forgot that she just ganged up with Little Loki to fight against the poor blue snake just now!

Little Loki dismissed all of its [Phantom Splitter] clones and used [Instant Teleportation] to appear on Tang Li Xue's right shoulder while Yaya was currently still occupying Tang Li Xue's left shoulder.

Tang Li Xue hurriedly swam further in the opposite direction from where the group of huge blue snakes would come from!

However, the previous blue snake who got injured by Tang Li Xue and Little Loki clearly would not let them get away that easily!

It swiftly swam to chase after Tang Li Xue closely from behind while opening its mouth and rapidly shot sharp icicles toward Tang Li Xue!

Tang Li Xue already sensed the blue snake's every movement with her [Greater Water Sense], so she quickly swam in the zigzag pattern to dodge the sharp icicles shot by the blue snake!

Thanks to [Golden Winged Serpent]'s various skills, Tang Li Xue's current speed underwater was very fast, but unfortunately, the blue snake's underwater speed was still even more faster than Tang Li Xue's.

The cunning huge blue snake no longer dared to attack Tang Li Xue from close, and it only harassed Tang Li Xue from afar with its sharp icicle rapid shots.

It was clear that the huge blue snake only planned to slow Tang Li Xue down and waited for its reinforcement to come, so they could gang up on Tang Li Xue and Little Loki later.

'This damned bast*rd~!' Tang Li Xue could only curse at the blue snake's shameless tactic in anger.

Tang Li Xue and her group would surely be able to win even if they were fighting head-on against that group of blue snakes, but Tang Li Xue did not want to waste so much of her time entangled with them.

The treasure located in this lake was only light red dot level after all, so Tang Li Xue thought it was really not worth it for her to spend so much of her time and effort to obtain it.

'All right, let's change to our Plan B!' Tang Li Xue said in a solemn tone through their mind connection.

Little Loki and Yaya stared at Tang Li Xue in confusion and curiosity.

'Err, well... Since when did they have Plan B?'

Without explaining it to them, Tang Li Xue suddenly used her [Twin Moons] divine ability and summoned out her perfect copy!

'Go and make them busy for a few minutes while I will find the treasures!' Tang Li Xue urged her perfect copy.

The perfect copy rolled her topaz blue eyes and replied in a helpless tone: 'You must be kidding with me, right? I do not have [Golden Winged Serpent]'s skills like you, so my battle prowess underwater is very poor. Can you tell me how the heck I can fight against those disgusting huge snakes?!'

Tang Li Xue: "....."

The perfect copy's words really made sense that even Tang Li Xue was ashamed of herself right now.

'All right, stop complaining! Then we will trade our task. Leave those snakes to me while you and Little Loki will try to find the treasures instead! How about it? Are you happy?' Tang Li Xue said to her perfect copy.

This time, her perfect copy had no other reason to complain or refuse.

Little Loki reluctantly jumped onto the perfect copy's shoulder as it immediately led the perfect copy to find the treasures with its sharp sense of smell for treasures.

Right at this moment, the group of snakes had already joined with the previous blue snake and managed to get closer to Tang Li Xue so quickly.

Tang Li Xue suddenly turned around and created a wire net with her [Energy Manipulation]!

Under her control, the wire net covered the group of huge snakes and bound them for a few moments!

The perfect copy hastily took this chance to swim away from them while the real Tang Li Xue faced the group of huge snakes and made them busy for a while.
