A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 57 Earth Escape Technique

Afraid of upsetting Gu Lian, Shen Tang smiled gratefully at her, her eyes crinkling. "Thank you so much for this generous gift before you left, Sister Gu. I'm very grateful, I'll accept it!"

"Aaaaah, you bitch, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!" Gu Lian was so angry that her lungs felt like they were going to explode, and she almost fainted.

The commotion attracted the attention of the males fighting nearby. When the leopards saw that their female was trapped, their eyes blazed with rage. They immediately abandoned their fight with Shen Li and rushed away from the battlefield to rescue Gu Lian.

Shen Li glanced at the earthen wall that had sprung up from the ground, and a look of astonishment flashed in his fox-like eyes. This was something Xiao Tang had done.
In that moment of hesitation, he failed to stop the group of orcs. The leopard beast raised its sharp claws, cleaved through the earthen wall, and carried the limp Gu Lian towards the flying vehicle.

The aircraft roared and emitted white smoke, about to take off.

The aircraft would only stay in the contaminated area for one hour. If they missed it, they would have to apply for the next flight. The leopards couldn't afford this loss, so they rushed into the aircraft with the speed of reincarnation and quickly closed the hatch.

Gu Lian's attempt to steal a chicken backfired, resulting in the loss of over 100 million redemption points—all of which were pure cash!
They toiled away in the polluted area for years, only to have it all come to naught, their efforts benefiting others!

Gu Lianhen's face was twisted in horror as she stared intently at Shen Tang and the other person as they walked further and further away, desperately pounding on the cabin door glass. "You bitch, you just wait, I won't let you get away with this!"

Shen Tang couldn't hear Gu Lian's voice, but judging from her twisted and sinister expression, she knew how nasty the insults were.

Shen Tang raised his hand and pulled a rock from the ground. "Boom!" It hit the wing of the aircraft, which shook violently and flew away, emitting black smoke.

Whether they can land safely depends on their luck.

Shen Tang's face curled into a mischievous smile.

She's in a great mood now that she's gotten over 100 million star coins for free, and she's one step closer to the main quest!
Shen Li turned his head and saw the female's triumphant smile. This cunning and wickedness made her otherwise ordinary face seem much more vivid and interesting.

"Xiao Tang, when did you awaken your earth-type ability? Why didn't you ever tell us?" Shen Li walked towards her, his fiery red fox tail swaying gently behind him, appearing exceptionally light and soft.

Shen Tang knew she couldn't hide it from them sooner or later, so she didn't intend to hide it from them in the first place. She casually said, "I don't know what happened. I suddenly awakened it a few days ago. You males can awaken elemental abilities, so it's not that strange for me to awaken an ability, right?"

“Most of the females in the Empire have awakened psychic abilities.” Shen Li stared intently at Shen Tang. His narrow fox eyes appeared gentle and alluring when he smiled, but when he didn’t smile, they were cold and deep, like a sharp sword piercing through her disguise.

Shen Tang felt uncomfortable under Shen Li's gaze and cursed inwardly at this cunning fox, saying that he was truly scheming and that she had to be wary of him!

Everyone has secrets.

Doesn't this cunning fox have his own secrets too? Why be so aggressive!

Shen Tang looked away, pursed her lips, and said, "You said it yourself, it's mostly, there are always a few exceptions, right? Can't I be that exception?"

“You’re right. Although there are only a handful of females in the history of the major empires who have awakened a second superpower, they are not non-existent…” Shen Li’s slender, jade-like fingers gently curled a strand of her hair, her fluffy, flame-like fox tail swaying lightly, and a playful smile played on her thin red lips. “Xiao Tang, you are such a treasure. You are surprising me more and more.”

The tender, gentle voice gave Shen Tang goosebumps.

Her lips twitched, and she took two steps back to avoid the foxy man's teasing.

Before, when she was fat, ugly, and useless, this cunning fox would have stayed as far away as possible. Now that she's awakened her second superpower, he's eager to get close to her. [Ding! Congratulations, host! Shen Li's favorability has increased by 20 points, now at 35. Please keep up the good work!]

“System, the city lord will be sending Shen Li and the others away in two days. This fox’s favorability rating is not low now. Do you think we should tell him about this and ask him to stay and protect me? Or should I go to the hunting season with them?” Shen Tang pondered this matter in his mind.

[The annual hunting season is actually the breeding season for most mutated species. During this period, the mutated species are of high level and numerous. Shen Li and his group can obtain a lot of redemption points by going to the hunting season. The host needs money very much right now, and they won't be able to earn money if they stay in the city.]

"That's true. Otherwise, should I go with them?"

[You can dodge the first day of the month, but you can't dodge the fifteenth. The city lord and his daughter want to get rid of the host. Even if you escape this time, there will be another.]

Shen Tang fell silent. What should she do?

She anxiously asked the system in her mind, "Can you give me some more life-saving missions, preferably with some useful items as rewards?"

The system readily agreed, [Ding! A new limited-time mission is now issued to the host: Touch Shen Li's fox ears. Reward: Basic Earth-type skill - Earth Escape Technique!]

Shen Tang wanted nothing more than to drag the system out and beat it up. Couldn't this system issue some normal tasks?!
The system said aggrievedly, "Host, I'm a strategy system, and other systems' databases are full of missions like this. This is already considered the simplest mission. How about I give you another one?"

Fearing it might give her an even more outrageous task, Shen Tang could only grit her teeth and accept it, saying, "This one is fine, don't change it."

On the way back to the city, Shen Tang quietly approached Shen Li and smelled the faint fragrance on the man's body, as enchanting as blooming flowers.

She composed herself slightly, put her hands behind her back, and suddenly spoke, "Shen Li."

Shen Li stopped and turned to look at her.

Shen Tang gave him a gentle smile, "There's a leaf on your head, let me pick it off for you."

Just as Shen Li was about to raise his hand to touch his head, Shen Tang grabbed his wrist. Then she stood on tiptoe and her fingers inadvertently brushed against his fox ears. The fluffy fur resembled soft clouds dyed with rosy clouds. The downy fur gently scratched his palm, making him linger.

Shen Tang didn't dare linger. She quickly released him in an instant, opened her palm, and sure enough, there was half a yellow leaf.

Shen Li's lips twitched slightly. He had noticed with his sharp eyes that she had hidden the leaf in her palm beforehand. This lecherous woman didn't even know how to come up with a good excuse for taking advantage of him.

He pretended not to know and said with a smile, "Thank you, Xiaotang."

Shen Tang chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, you're welcome."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the limited-time mission: Touch Shen Li's fox ears. Reward: Earth-type beginner skill Earth Escape Technique. The reward has been automatically sent to your system inventory. Please check it yourself!]

After returning home, Shen Tang went into seclusion to cultivate his supernatural abilities. After two days and two nights, he successfully learned the Earth Escape Technique.

Just then, unfamiliar footsteps came from outside.
