After Instructor Mei Lan led Tang Li Xue out of the Education Department Building, she suddenly halted her step at the front gate.

Tang Li Xue asked Instructor Mei Lan in puzzlement: "What is wrong?"

Instructor Mei Lan glared behind Tang Li Xue and shouted with a threatening tone: "Come out now~! Or do I need to pull you guys out by myself?!"

Tang Li Xue turned around. She immediately discovered Bingbing and Silly Fox who was hiding behind the nearby pillar.

Tang Li Xue's lips twitched as she said to them: "Nice try~! But at least try to hide your tails too next time..."

Bingbing and Silly Fox approached Instructor Mei Lan and Tang Li Xue with embarrassed expressions.

"Please forgive us, Instructor Lan, but we are really worried about Little Xue..." Silly Fox explained to Instructor Mei Lan.

Bingbing quickly nodded her head in agreement.

Tang Li Xue's heart warmed when she heard Bingbing and Silly Fox's words.

She was afraid that both Bingbing and Silly Fox would get involved and get punished more heavily because of her, so she quickly tried to reassure them: "You two do not need to worry about me. Instructor Lan only brought me to meet someone."

Bingbing pouted with teary eyes and replied: "Stop lying, Little Xue~! We already heard about it just now. Instructor Lan took you for interrogation about the previous incident, right?"

Tang Li Xue instantly fell silent and did not know how to comfort them anymore.

Silly Fox bravely stood in front of Tang Li Xue and shouted at Instructor Mei Lan valiantly: "Instructor Lan, you can punish and bully me as you like, but you must step over my dead body if you want to bully or hurt Little Xue~!"

Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes as she said: "Do you two even know what you are talking about?! How could you think that I have any intention to harm Little Xue?!"

Instructor Mei Lan sighed while staring at Bingbing and Silly Fox with a pair of eyes filled with sympathy: "I think the brains of you two must be already damaged! I will make sure to beat you two on the heads much harder to fix them from now on!"

Tang Li Xue slipped and almost fell down when she heard Instructor Mei Lan's words.

'Instructor Lan, their head and brain are not the fence or building, so how could you fix them by hitting them harder?!' Tang Li Xue silently complained.

Instructor Mei Lan really smacked both Silly Fox and Bingbing's heads harder in anger and kicked them back to the Education Department Building while telling them with a harsh tone: "Go back to the training room right now! You two must complete 5,000 times of training sets or you will not be allowed to come back home today!"

Silly Fox and Bingbing put on wronged expressions, but they still reluctantly stared at Tang Li Xue. It could be seen that they were genuinely worried about Tang Li Xue's safety.

Tang Li Xue giggled at them and whispered with telepathy to the two of them: "Don't worry~! Instructor Lan will certainly not allow anyone to hurt me. I am her favorite student after all~!"

After she watched Bingbing and Silly Fox enter the Education Department Building again, Tang Li Xue secretly sighed in relief.

Tang Li Xue was quite afraid and worried that both Bingbing and Silly Fox would persistently try to stand up for her. It would be really bad if they made Instructor Mei Lan more pissed off.

"Instructor Lan, can you be gentler with them? They did that because they were worried about me after all..." Tang Li Xue said to Instructor Mei Lan as she felt sorry for her two friends.

Instructor Mei Lan smiled gently and replied with a soft tone: "Oh? Are you really sure you want me to be 'gentler' with them?"

Tang Li Xue suddenly shuddered in fright as she shook her head repeatedly in reflex.

Tang Li Xue stopped talking and obediently followed Instructor Mei Lan closely from behind.

Tang Li Xue thought that Instructor Mei Lan would take her somewhere like an office, a dungeon, or something like that.

But who would have thought that Instructor Mei Lan would actually take her to the library?!

Tang Li Xue glanced at Instructor Mei Lan with a puzzled expression, but Instructor Mei Lan did not bother to explain anything to her.

"I can only bring you this far. You can only enter by yourself. Remember~! Never talk nonsense, never tell any lie, just answer what she asks in detail~!" Instructor Mei Lan reminded Tang Li Xue with a stern tone.

Tang Li Xue nodded with a solemn expression, and then she decided to put Little Loki and Yaya into her System's pet space before she stepped into the library.

Little Loki and Yaya also expressed their worry to Tang Li Xue, but Tang Li Xue reassured them by promising to immediately call them out if she met with any danger later.

Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down before she pushed the double front doors of the library.

After Tang Li Xue entered the library, the double front doors automatically closed again.

The interior of the library was much more spectacular than Tang Li Xue's expectation.

The space inside the library was extremely vast compared to its humble appearance from the outside.

There were so many tall bookshelves containing hundreds of books on each of them.

Tang Li Xue estimated that there might be millions or even billions of books stored in this library.

Tang Li Xue slowly explored deeper into the vast library in awe.

After some time, Tang Li Xue finally reached the center of the vast library and saw a sexy beautiful fox lady in a black formal Qipao dress sitting on the sofa while reading a book.

Her posture and every gesture were noble and elegant like from an aristocratic family.

She has long straight gray hair tied in a ponytail. Even her fox ears and tails were gray colored.

"Cough, Uh... Hello~! Excuse me..." Tang Li Xue awkwardly tried to greet the ponytailed elegant fox lady.

The ponytailed elegant fox lady leisurely raised her head to take a glance at Tang Li Xue.

BWOOOOSH~!

At that very moment, Tang Li Xue's body instantly stiffened in horror as she suddenly felt like she was being peeked by someone from head to toe.

It was an extremely uncomfortable feeling as if she was stripped completely naked!

She did not even feel this bad when she was facing Meng Yue's mind-reading ability!

Fortunately, there was still [Heaven Covering Necklace] she wore around her neck which prevented anyone from seeing through all of her secrets.

Cold sweat wetting Tang Li Xue's back and forehead as she nervously gulped down her saliva.

There was no doubt that the investigation abilities of this elegant fox lady were definitely many times more powerful than Meng Yue's mind-reading ability!

When Tang Li Xue's topaz blue eyes met with the elegant fox lady's obsidian black eyes, Tang Li Xue instantly felt as if her soul and consciousness almost got sucked by the elegant fox lady's obsidian black eyes.

For the first time, the tiny [Soul Slaying Sword] which rested at the center of Tang Li Xue's sea of consciousness reacted.

As the tiny [Soul Slaying Sword] trembled slightly to shake off the influence of the elegant fox lady's stare, Tang Li Xue immediately woke up from her daze.

Tang Li Xue did not even dare to look at the elegant fox lady anymore.

'Horrible' or 'frightening' words could not even be used to describe Tang Li Xue's feelings for the spooky elegant fox lady in front of her.

That elegant fox lady only sat there quietly without doing anything, but Tang Li Xue could already feel her horror several times.

No... To be more exact, Tang Li Xue could not even feel anything from the elegant fox lady right now.

If she closed her topaz blue eyes, she could not even sense any presence of the elegant fox lady who was sitting right in front of her at all.

But that only made the elegant fox lady much more frightening than anyone Tang Li Xue had ever met until now!

The elegant fox lady suddenly chuckled as she closed the book in her hands and said: "Interesting... You are truly a fascinating little one."

Tang Li Xue lowered her head more humbly. She tried to say something to greet the elegant fox lady, but there was no word coming out of her mouth.

Tang Li Xue immediately closed her mouth when she recalled Instructor Mei Lan's warning...

Never talk nonsense, never tell any lie, just answer what she asks in detail...

"There is no need to be so tense. I only called you here just to have a little chat to make sure about something." The elegant fox lady said as she took out a teacup, put it on the table, and poured the tea in the teapot onto the teacup.

"You can sit down and be more relaxed." The elegant fox lady muttered to Tang Li Xue again.

Tang Li Xue nodded as she felt a lot more relaxed. She sat on the seat across from the elegant fox lady without any hesitation, but she did not dare to touch the tea.

Then she suddenly realized something was strange.

Only then did she realize that she was once again affected by the elegant fox lady's other ability.

It should be a similar ability to her [Mystic Whisper], but more powerful and well-hidden. It could even control her mood and feelings!

The elegant fox lady still showed an amicable smile as she muttered to Tang Li Xue: "You can just talk casually to me. Just consider me as one of your close friends. You can call me... Bookkeeper."
