Tang Li Xue controlled the flying disk condensed from [Energy Manipulation] under her feet to quickly fly forward again, while she put Little Seventh down from her back.
"Little Seventh, those bad guys' target is Big Sister Xue, so Big Sister Xue can no longer accompany you. Big Sister Xue is so sorry, but Little Seventh has to run away alone after we reach the jungle near this small town. Did Little Seventh understand? Can Little Seventh do it?" Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Little Seventh.
Little Seventh puckered her lips in disappointment and replied: "But Seventh still wants to be with Big Sister Xue..."
Tang Li Xue smiled sadly and explained: "Big Sister Xue know... Big Sister also wants to be with Little Seventh, but it will put Little Seventh in great danger."
"Little Seventh do not need to worry. Big Sister Xue will certainly look for Little Seventh after getting rid of these bad guys, okay?" Tang Li Xue continued while patting Little Seventh's head.
Little Seventh reluctantly nodded her head, but her expression became gloomy.
Tang Li Xue smiled as she kissed Little Seventh's forehead and whispered: "Good girl... Little Seventh is really cute and brave. Big Sister Xue believes Little Seventh can do it."

However, there was actually someone in a worse mood than them right now...
"Losing contact with the fifth and sixth team. There is a high chance that they have already been taken down by our target." Assassin Tower's information agent reported with his communication talisman.
"Fifth and sixth team?! There should be more than twenty people, right? But the target took all of them down alone?! Overseer, are you sure that this target is someone we can assassinate? Her combat power is obviously too much higher than the estimated information!" One of the assassins complained from his communication talisman.
The information agent was also very upset about losing around twenty-five veteran assassins but still failed to kill the target.
This was really not a good sign since it means the target's strength was much higher than the information given by the hirer.
"Raise the target's level from rank B to rank A. Hunt will continue as usual, but be sure to be careful! All of you only need to track the target and wear her down slowly. When our Rank A assassins arrive here, we will finish her off." The information agent instructed with a cold tone.
Rank B veteran assassins have 1st rank to 6th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation with more than 50 years of assassin's experience.
Rank A veteran assassins have 7th rank to 9th rank Core Formation Stage cultivation with more than 90% assassination success rate.
Of course, there were also Rank S veteran assassins with Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, but Tang Li Xue's cultivation was clearly only at the peak of the Acupuncture Opening Stage...
She had not even reached Foundation Establishment Stage yet!
Assassin Tower put Tang Li Xue in Rank B target before, because the hirer's information said that Tang Li Xue could escape even from the chase of several Core Formation Stage cultivators.
Who knew that Tang Li Xue could actually slay more than twenty of their Rank B veteran assassins alone!
Unfortunately, it was already too late for them to regret having underestimated Tang Li Xue earlier.
.....

.
Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue finally got out of the small town and flew above the nearby forest.
But there were still several persistent black-clothed assassins that kept chasing behind her.
Unlike before, these several black-clothed assassins did not dare to fight at close range against Tang Li Xue, they carefully kept their distance and launched attacks toward her from afar.
All kinds of secret weapons, talismans, and spells were thrown by these black-clothed assassins toward Tang Li Xue.
BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!! BOOOOOMM~!!!
The transparent shield condensed from the perfect copy's [Energy Manipulation] divine ability was broken again for the third time.
"Oi, oi, oi... Can you think of something to counter them quickly?! They are clearly trying to wear us down first now!" Tang Li Xue's perfect copy complained while she condensed another transparent shield to block black-clothed assassins' attacks.
"Shut up! Just do your job properly! Let me think calmly!" Tang Li Xue replied angrily, but she still carefully drove the flying disk in a zigzag pattern to avoid half of the black-clothed assassins' attacks.
Tang Li Xue actually wanted to let Little Seventh go after they went out of the little town, but she immediately canceled her intention since they were being chased so persistently by these black-clothed assassins.
What if Little Seventh accidentally got hit by these assassins' strayed attack before she could run far?!
That was the reason why Tang Li Xue kept looking for an opportunity to slip away from these assassins' chase rather than fighting them head-on.
Moreover, these assassins became much more cautious and slippery than before, so it would not be an easy task for Tang Li Xue if she wanted to slay them like the previous assassins.
'Damn it! If only they are flocking together like before, I can certainly slay them down together!' Tang Li Xue gnashed her pearl-white teeth in annoyance.
When Tang Li Xue tried to avoid another attack from the black-clothed assassins, their attack still managed to strike the edge of Tang Li Xue's flying disk!
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Tang Li Xue's flying disk shook greatly and filled with cracks in that instant!
Even Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were standing unsteadily.
At this time, Little Seventh's feet accidentally slipped from the flying disk!
"Little Seventh!" Tang Li Xue shouted in panic as she quickly charged forward and stuck out her right hand to catch the falling Little Seventh.
Little Seventh also stuck out her hands to grab Tang Li Xue's hand.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue failed to catch Little Seventh's hands, and Little Seventh still fell down from the flying disk!
Tang Li Xue hurriedly drove the flying disk to suddenly dive down and chased after the falling Little Seventh before she could fall onto the ground!
Several black-clothed assassins saw what had happened and took this chance to launch fiercer attacks on Tang Li Xue!
BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!!
Tang Li Xue's flying disk finally could not hold on anymore and shattered to pieces under their attacks.
"These annoying scums!" Tang Li Xue cursed as she glared at them coldly.
When several black-clothed assassins launched another wave of fierce attacks toward Tang Li Xue, she hastily grabbed her perfect copy's right hand and threw it downward toward Little Seventh, so her perfect copy could catch Little Seventh.
Just as the fierce ranged attacks almost hit Tang Li Xue's slender figure...
Her body was instantly shrouded in thick deep blue flames!
"Let's go, dumb bird! We will show them what the good and beautiful explosion truly is!" Tang Li Xue murmured as a loud phoenix's crisp chirp echoed from inside her body.
[Perfect Assimilation]!
[Phoenix Cloak]!
[Phoenix Wings]!
BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!! BAAAAANG~!!!
The black-clothed assassins' fierce ranged attacks landed on Tang Li Xue's slim figure, but all of them were blocked by her [Phoenix Cloak]!
Tang Li Xue flapped the deep blue [Phoenix Wings] on her back, and her slim figure stopped falling down and soaring into the sky again.
With one wave of her right hand, tens of [Flame Arrows] instantly formed and flew toward the black-clothed assassins!
However, several black-clothed assassins were already prepared as they swiftly raised their defensive treasure to defend themselves from Tang Li Xue's [Flame Arrows].
Unfortunately for them, Tang Li Xue's target was not their body, but the flying treasure under their feet!
BBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOOMMM~!!! BBOOOOOOMMM~!!!
The flying treasures under the black-clothed assassins' feet were also shattered to pieces, and they fell down from the sky too!
Those black-clothed assassins hastily wanted to take out another flying treasure from their spatial ring, but Tang Li Xue would not let them do it so easily.
[Water Control]!
[Combined Water Prison]!
Those several black-clothed assassins were trapped in the water ball, but it did not only end there!
Several water balls each containing one black-clothed assassin suddenly gathered in one point and combined into one huge water ball.
"You like to play with explosions, right? Good, I happen to like it too!" Tang Li Xue said with a chilling tone as she condensed several deep blue [Fire Bombs] at once on the top of her palm.
In fact, Tang Li Xue really wanted to throw her [Spiral Sphere Bomb] toward them right now. Unfortunately, she could not compress [Spiral Sphere Bomb] for now because of her lack of control over her upgraded Flame of Pride.
"It is not a big problem! Since I cannot throw a big one, then I will just need to make up for it with quantity! Taste these [Fire Bombs] condensed from the powered-up Flame of Pride!" Tang Li Xue spoke as she threw several deep blue [Fire Bombs] toward the large water ball which contained several assassins.
BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!!!
Several [Fire Bombs] exploded violently, sweeping the surrounding rainwater and cloud!
Even Tang Li Xue was thrown off backward for few meters because of the explosion's shockwave.
"HOI~!!! Are you crazy?! Do you really want to kill us along with those guys?!" Tang Li Xue's perfect copy complained as she protected herself along with Little Seventh in her embrace with a transparent barrier created from [Energy Manipulation].
While Tang Li Xue fought, her perfect copy already caught Little Seventh before she could fall onto the ground and quickly condensed another flying disk with [Energy Manipulation], then soaring farther into the sky.
But they were still affected by the great explosion's shockwave despite their distance from the great explosion was actually much farther than the real Tang Li Xue.
When the dust and smoke were cleared by the wind and rainwater, Tang Li Xue made sure that those several assassins already evaporated into nothingness under her several [Fire Bombs] explosions.
Tang Li Xue grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Damn, I cannot even find their spatial rings anymore! Bad decision! I should have not killed them with an explosion!"
