Talulah, I'm still a child.

"Your forehand is weak, your backhand is poor, your footwork is loose, your reactions are slow, and not a single movement is decent!"

In fact, if she could, Zofia really wouldn't mind killing her niece. Recalling what happened in the bathroom just now, Zofia swung her sword even faster. On the other hand, Maria was a little flustered and didn't show her full strength.

Mei Xue didn't quite understand, but she still cheered Maria on. The training in the afternoon was undoubtedly more intense than in the morning, and Maria was exhausted. She was glad that her competition didn't start until tomorrow afternoon.

"That's not enough?"

"Auntie... Haha, I was wrong, I have a competition tomorrow."

"Then we need to train even harder."

Zofia stood with her hands on her hips, looking down at Maria who was lying on the ground. Mei Xue wagged her tail and handed her an apple.

"Have something to eat first, sister."

"Brother-in-law! You're still the best to me!"

Maria scrambled into Mei Xue's arms and snuggled against her. The little fox's embrace was the best haven and gentle comfort. With him protecting her, Zofia couldn't possibly say anything too harsh, let alone train her.

In the past, Zofia would have thought that Maria liked to act coquettishly towards her brother-in-law, Mei Xue, and that Maria trusted Mei Xue so quickly because of Margaret.

But now, especially after that day's mental exercise, Zofia felt more and more that this girl was deliberately sticking close to Mei Xue, their chests were practically touching! You brat!

Even stranger was Mei Xue. After what happened, the little fox acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to do whatever she wanted without being affected at all, as if it were all Zofia's own hallucination.

Moreover, Mei Xue was indeed just eating while watching their confrontation, without a single ulterior motive in her eyes. The little fox hugged its tail and reached out to pat Maria's head to comfort her.

"Brother-in-law, will you come to watch my game tomorrow?"

Maria took a bite of her apple. Tomorrow is the official start of the Knights' Tournament. Viviana was originally supposed to be the host of tonight's opening ceremony, but she was replaced by another well-known Wind Knight at the last minute.

"I think so. I don't have anything to do tomorrow, but Maria, you have to do your best."

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears. Although Maria was making rapid progress, the little fox could still sense that she wasn't that strong. Hmm, this standard was based on Huang.

"I will! Oh, and brother-in-law, if I win, then... could you..."

"Can you do what?"

"Oh, I'll tell you about that later."

Watching Maria and Mei Xue whisper to each other, Zofia raised her eyebrows slightly. She was becoming more and more certain of her guess. Maria must have some feelings for Mei Xue, otherwise there was no way to explain it.

"Is there anything you can't say to my face?"

"Hehe, this is a secret between my brother-in-law and me."

Maria chuckled and changed the subject. Mei Xue looked up at the gloomy sky. It was time to go back for dinner. She also wanted to find Sister Lin Qingyan to express her gratitude. She really couldn't have handled those companies without Lin Qingyan.

Speaking of company management, why not just call Sister Swire and ask her to send someone to take charge of this? After all, she's spent quite a bit of money on her card, so giving her half wouldn't be too much.

"Then I'll be going now. Dinner is ready. You can heat it up and eat, but remember to take a shower first. Maria, don't lie on the floor anymore."

"Brother-in-law, don't you also like lying on the grass?"

"I won't get it dirty."

The little fox shook its fluffy ears, and a red oil-paper umbrella flew out from its tail and landed in its hand. It waved to the two of them, then wagged its tail and swaggered out of the gate of the Lin Guang family's house.

At the same time, the little fox's movements were reported to the Supervisory Council and the Business Federation, as well as other forces large and small lurking in Kazimierz. According to Platinum's observation, there were at least ten people secretly observing Mei Xue, in addition to the two largest companies, there were also several other directors or private armed forces of individual large families.

Clearly, all factions are wary of this person who suddenly appeared and disrupted the overall situation in Kazimierz. At present, this little fox is probably on the same side as the Supervisory Council, but even the Supervisory Council itself is not sure about this guess.

After all, they wouldn't dare say they could take down five business association directors in one fell swoop; that would be a truly terrifying move.

"But to actually get the Azure Gold Saint to take action..."

To be honest, Bai Jin didn't really want Mei Xue to die. This little fox was cute and innocent. She didn't quite believe that Mei Xue could be so cunning. That kind of naivety couldn't be faked, so the little fox was genuinely simple-minded.

(It's a pity, regardless of whether you were behind these things or not, a good person is going to die today.)

However, it is worth noting that Mei Xue's storage ability and teleportation should be different Originium Arts. It is because this little fox's teleportation ability is too unreasonable that the Wuzhou Alliance decided to send Qingjin Dawei to carry out this mission. With Qingjin's arrow, he should be able to kill the opponent before the opponent can react.

At the end of the street where Mei Xue was walking, Qingjin Luoyi stood on the rooftop of a high-rise building and looked into the distance. In his opinion, the little fox had chosen the path with the lowest survival rate. Because of the gloomy sky, there were not many people on this street. The Business Federation had made arrangements in advance to remove the traces as soon as possible, thus preventing an accident.

"You can only blame your bad luck..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Roy raised his specially made composite bow, drew out a fine steel arrow, nocked it on the string, drew the bowstring taut, and aimed it at Mei Xue, who was walking down the street.

The little fox was completely unaware of the danger, humming a tune as it walked along the deserted street. The wind stirred up some dust. Mei Xue thought to herself that it would be nice if it rained now, because the air would be cleaner, and she liked the rain too.

When it rains, I hide in my little room, curled up in bed, listening to the raindrops pattering down outside, enjoying a peaceful moment all to myself, surrounded by warmth, and falling asleep under the kiss of security.

Rain began to fall, but this rain was no match for the lapis lazuli arrow. A pale blue light gathered and adhered to her arrow. Roy released the bowstring, and the arrow flew out at a speed exceeding the speed of sound, aiming straight for Mei Xue's face under the cover of the drizzle.

Even if the umbrella obscures Mei Xue's heart and mind, this arrow would be fatal no matter where it hits.

Once the target realized the arrow was coming, there was no way to dodge it; they had no choice but to take it. Roy couldn't say she liked the job, because whether she liked it or not, it was there, and she had to do it.

But just when he thought this target would disappear completely under the arrow, like the others, his arrow turned into a feather after touching the seemingly fragile red oil-paper umbrella. Yes, this was the most apt description Roy could think of.

Roy originally estimated that the arrow could at least pierce through a building, and naturally it could also pierce Mei Xue's fragile body. However, the arrow, which was imbued with Originium Arts, was gently deflected the moment it touched the umbrella, just like a flying feather hitting glass.

Everyone secretly monitoring Mei Xue was stunned, including the assassins disguised as passersby. No one expected that the arrow shot by the Azure Gold Grandmaster would be so insignificant in front of Mei Xue. He didn't even realize what he had done.

"A hardworking fox learns to manage the household early, a happy fox marries early, and what's in the little fox's tail? Countless apples and happiness!"

Humming a song and pacing along, Mei Xue was completely unaware that he had just brushed past danger. No, what would be considered danger to him? Certainly not an assassination like this.

Roy was stunned for a moment, but with his professionalism, he decisively prepared to shoot a second time. This time, he would avoid the umbrella and shoot the lower body to kill the target just as well.

Just as he had this thought, an indescribable sense of crisis rose from the bottom of his heart. Without thinking, Roy jumped back to avoid the sharp stone spikes that suddenly appeared under his feet.

"who?"

"A rat hiding in the dark, it's really courting death."

As the words fell, a woman dressed in a brown-black off-shoulder top and white knee-high socks emerged from the light drizzle. Strangely, not a single drop of rain touched her.

Mandra looked at Roy, having already sentenced him to death in his heart. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on Mei Xue would not have a good end. Wu Zhou Alliance, well, let's just wipe them all out.

"So you're the one who secretly killed the board members?"

"You mean that bunch of good-for-nothings? If they hadn't harbored ill will towards my master, they wouldn't have suffered such retribution."

"What do you mean?"

"What good is it for a dying person to know so much?"

Mandela wasn't in the mood to answer so many questions. After realizing that someone was trying to assassinate Mei Xue, she came here immediately and stopped Roy's second arrow.

Of course, even if she didn't stop it, the lightning accumulating in the sky would still take the life of this Azure Gold Grandmaster. Trying to harm Mei Xue? Even Theresis would probably have to praise her for being so brave.

Unbeknownst to Mei Xue, Qingjin was entangled by Mandra, while the assassins disguised as passersby slowly approached, intending to take advantage of the rain to eliminate him.

But as they approached Mei Xue, they all strangely collapsed to the ground, gradually losing their life force. However, because the rain and fog gradually thickened, Mei Xue failed to notice that there were still such people. The little fox's tail swayed involuntarily. At the same time, the directors who ordered the assassination all felt something strange happening to their bodies.

Some people experience dizziness, others chest pain, or shortness of breath; some even faint on the spot in the office.

"I wonder if my sister has gone back yet."

As Mei Xue thought this, on the other side, Viviana's side, thunder and explosions resounded all around, and one could vaguely hear the mixed doubles of Da Yan's and Agor's swearing.

Chapter 316 An Eternal Dark History

On Rhodes Island, which was traveling at high speed, Kal'tsit leaned back in her chair, lost in thought, looking at the gloomy sky outside the window. Neither Theresa nor Amiya could guess where her thoughts had drifted off to.

This snow has changed many things imperceptibly. Kal'tsit is well aware of this, as are many others. The Doctor, however, is still pondering the information Kal'tsit had just shared.

"In other words, this snow covered the entire Terra, essentially stealing the fortune of all countries except for the Great Yan?"

That's right.

"No way, Mei Xue is already capable of doing something like this?"

Miss Doctor recalled the adorable face of her little fox from her memories and couldn't imagine that Mei Xue could do such a thing. Although Kal'tsit and others had repeatedly shown him Mei Xue's abilities, looking at Mei Xue's face, who could believe it, especially since he was only a six-tailed fox?

"No, that must have been something his sister did back then, but I can't understand why it would happen now?"

"Dr. Kal'tsit, what does this mean?"

Amiya was a little confused; the little rabbit was still young and her knowledge was far less extensive than Kal'tsit's.

"If the goal was to give Mei Xue enough luck to recover to the Nine-Tails state, Terra is simply not enough now. If the goal wasn't to help him recover to the Nine-Tails state, then why didn't they act back then?"

The Doctor could easily think of this question, but she also had no answer. There was too little information available. She felt that Kal'tsit in front of her wanted to pry open her head to see what was left inside.

(I really want to pry open the doctor's head to see what she still remembers.)

Kal'tsit couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, especially about what happened a few years ago. It was really unpleasant that she was the only one kept in the dark.

"It all depends on what valuable clues Skadi can find in Drip Village."

The Doctor slumped helplessly onto the table. Drip Village was a location she had highlighted in her notes, so in addition to Skadi, Blaze and Rosemary were also sent there to participate in the mission, hoping to discover something useful.

"Besides that, I just received news that last night, five companies and two hospitals in Casimir were registered under Rhodes Island's name. It must have been done by Brother Mei Xue."

"Isn't this too high-profile?"

"Also, the elite of the Kazimir border guards, the Silver Spear Pegasus, were defeated this afternoon."

Kal'tsit added coldly that she had numerous sources of information, and could learn about things that Kazimierz needed to keep strictly confidential in the shortest amount of time.

"Isn't Ursus fighting Victoria? Why is it targeting Kazimir?"

"It wasn't Ursus, nor was it a war. I heard that the one who made the move was a group of boy scouts from the Great Yan, numbering no more than a hundred."

Amiya and the Doctor froze on the spot, seemingly unable to process what Kal'tsit had said. What did it mean? Kazimierz's most elite troops had been defeated by a group of child scouts? And from the Great Yan?

Miss Doctor suddenly felt a pang of sadness for the knights of Silver Spear and Pegasus. Being defeated by someone else's Boy Scouts, they might have to face this when chatting with others in the future.

I served in the most elite army in Kazimir.

But you were once beaten down by Boy Scouts.

This incident will probably never be forgotten; it'll be a permanent stain on my history.

"Boy Scouts?"

Amiya imagined that if they wanted to defeat the Silver Spear Pegasus's forces, it would be fine for a single person, but the difficulty would increase exponentially with two people working together. A team of three would be enough to deal with most of Rhodes Island's elite operators, and if it were an entire force, taking down any city would be a piece of cake.
