Chapter 690 Chapter 690: Messy Feeling!

Gu Family was the family of alchemists. So, of course, they were extremely rich.

Their mansion was also very luxurious.

Every tile in their mansion was made from rare beautiful jade, while every pillar was made from silver and gold.

Even every flower, herb, plant, and tree planted in all of their gardens and yards was rare and precious.

Not only luxurious and beautiful like paradise, but their mansion was also installed with many advanced high-level formations such as the Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation, Protection Formation, and so on.

Immortal Sword Sect might be well-known as the strongest sect in this Lightwind Continent, but there was no doubt that the Alchemist Sect was the richest sect in this Lightwind Continent.

Both of them as the strongest sect and richest sect in this Lightwind Continent, so it was not strange that their relationship was very close to each other.

Immortal Sword Sect needed a large supply of pills and cultivation resources from the Alchemist Sect, while the Alchemist Sect needed protection from the coveting the eyes of other sects, Four Evil Sects, Beast Races, and so on.

In short, their relationship was completely mutual and almost unbreakable.

Actually, the Immortal Sword Sect\'s patriarch had already urged Elder Yang to have closer contact with the Alchemist Sect as early as one month ago.

But Elder Yang no longer had his ambition to take over the Immortal Sword Sect like before after he met with Tang Li Xue, so he refused it.

Unfortunately, the recent Beast Tide incidents which had happened at many places in the Lightwind Continent gave the Immortal Sword Sect\'s patriarch a chance to force Elder Yang to have closer contact with the Alchemist Sect.

After rushing to the Alchemist Sect and having a meeting with the Alchemist Sect\'s patriarch a few days ago, Elder Yang led more than a dozen Nascent Soul Stage Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect to closely guard this Garden City.

The main reason for that was because this Garden City was the lifeblood of the Alchemist Sect.

More than 60% of their pill materials such as herbs, fruits, flowers, and so on were supplied from Garden City.

When this Garden City falls, it means the Alchemist Sect will certainly be half crippled.

Could great alchemists make any pills without any materials? Nope~!

Even the Immortal Sword Sect... No, all Human Race in Lightwind Continent would be greatly affected if the Alchemist Sect could no longer produce any pills!

Thus this Garden City must be closely guarded and never be allowed to fall no matter what happens!

.....

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue, who was currently secretly monitoring the Gu Family\'s mansion with Yaya and Little Loki, had already realized that it would not be easy to infiltrate there.

"Woah~! What a scary place is this~?! There are so many guards and so many layers of protection formation~! This place is probably no less tightly guarded than the Imperial Palace in the Foxes Hunting Festival~!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in awe.

Tang Li Xue did not exaggerate it at all since she had already seen several Nascent Soul Stage Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect patrolling around the vicinity of Gu Family\'s Mansion.

She did not even dare to stay too long around the vicinity of Gu Family\'s Mansion after she saw them and immediately acted as if she was just passing by there.

As for why Tang Li Xue could recognize that they were the elders from the Immortal Sword Sect... It was because she had already seen their uniform at Tang Feng City before.

All of the cultivators in 5 Righteous Sects from disciples to elders were extremely proud of their own sect, so they usually wore their uniform outside to show their identity to others.

Moreover, those Nascent Soul Stage Elders wantonly released their cultivation pressure to intimidate the others to not get too close to Gu Family\'s mansion, so anyone with a little brain would instantly know their identity and cultivation level.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as she could not find a way to get close to Gu Family\'s mansion at all with those Nascent Soul Stage Elders patrolling and guarding it.

Without any other choice, Tang Li Xue could only take out her communication talisman from her space pouch and tell the current situation honestly to Instructor Mei Lan.

"That is not strange. You should already know about Beast Tide. Those several Nascent Soul Stage Elders from Immortal Sword Sect should be assigned to guard this Garden City from the Beast Tide." Instructor Mei Lan\'s casual voice came out from Tang Li Xue\'s communication talisman.

"So, what should I do now?" Tang Li Xue asked with a puzzled tone.

"Have you counted how many Nascent Soul Stage Elders are guarding and patrolling around there?" Instructor Mei Lan asked curiously.

"Err, it should be around four or five Nascent Soul Stage Elders... But I am sure there should be more of them inside the mansion." Tang Li Xue replied with an uncertain tone.

"How about your perfect clone\'s divine ability? Can you use it to sneak into that mansion and look at the situation there first?" Instructor Mei Lan asked again.

"Nope, it is still in cooldown. I can only use it again tomorrow." Tang Li Xue helplessly answered.

"Then you are completely useless today~! Just go for a walk with Little Yaya and your cat for today... Oh, don\'t forget about time and return before dark~!" Instructor Mei Lan instructed before she disconnected their communication.

Tang Li Xue\'s pink lips twitched in annoyance at Instructor Mei Lan\'s blatant underestimation of her.

"Sigh, forget it... Instructor Mei Lan still does not know that I already have many new useful divine abilities such as [Mystic Whisper]. I can try to use it to extract information from Gu Mansion\'s people!" Tang Li Xue muttered with a confident tone.

Tang Li Xue lurked around the Gu Family\'s mansion for a few more hours until she saw a servant come out from the mansion to buy something.

Of course, she sat on the 2nd floor of the teahouse opposite the Gu Family\'s mansion in order not to attract the attention of the patrolling guards or Nascent Soul Stage Elders.

Tang Li Xue quickly paid for her tea with several low-tier spirit stones while gnashing her pearl-white teeth and complaining silently in her heart: \'Damn it~! What is this tea made from?! Gold or diamond?! How the hell could one pot cost 10 low-tier Spirit Stones?! This is clearly a daylight robbery~!\'

Despite her complaint, Tang Li Xue quickly got out of the teahouse and followed the servant closely from behind.

After they were already quite far from the Gu Family\'s mansion, Tang Li Xue tapped the servant\'s shoulder from behind.

When the servant turned around and glanced at her, Tang Li Xue\'s charming topaz blue eyes were shining with dim light.

Tang Li Xue had used [Eyes of Illusion] on him!

The servant did not pay any attention to Tang Li Xue as if he did not see her at all, and he walked again as before.

But this time, the servant was heading to the other place without realizing it.

This street was too crowded, so Tang Li Xue clearly could not just kidnap him in front of the eyes of so many people.

Moreover, most of the people in this street were also cultivators, even though most of them did not have a high cultivation level.

Tang Li Xue easily led the servant to walk toward a desolate place with her [Eyes of Illusion].

After making sure that no one was nearby right now, Tang Li Xue asked Little Loki and Yaya to stand guard, so no one would come close to this place until she finished her business with that servant.

"You must answer all of my questions truthfully from now on. Are a girl named Yan Fei and a guy called Gu Shengxin in that mansion right now?" Tang Li Xue asked the servant using her [Mystic Whisper].

Tang Li Xue\'s words instantly penetrated into the deepest part of the servant\'s consciousness without giving him any chance to resist, and he instantly fell under Tang Li Xue\'s control.

The servant\'s expression became blank as he answered Tang Li Xue\'s question: "I do not know any girl named Yan Fei. But Gu Shengxin is my young master, so of course, he lives in the mansion."

Tang Li Xue nodded, and then she asked again: "Tell me all the information you know about the people living inside Gu Family\'s mansion!"

The servant started to blabber all the information he knew about the Gu Family\'s mansion, but unfortunately, most of it was the information that Tang Li Xue did not need.

Tang Li Xue could only sigh in disappointment.

But it should be Tang Li Xue\'s fault for expecting too much from a lowly servant.

How could a lowly servant who served as a coolie in the kitchen know about the crucial information of Gu Family\'s mansion?!

Just when Tang Li Xue thought that she would not get any crucial information from this lowly servant, she suddenly heard that the lowly servant actually mentioned a familiar name.

Elder Yang, the Honorable Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect, brought many Nascent Soul Stage Elders with him to help guard this Garden City today~!

Tang Li Xue\'s mood instantly became very messy, and she fell into a panic after she heard the information about Elder Yang.

She did not know how she must face Elder Yang anymore after Instructor Mei Lan told her that Elder Yang was the one who sent those assassins to kill her before.
