Chapter 598: Chapter 598: Recently, Everything Has Been Off

Deep in the dense forest.

Two people and a toad stood there.

The silence around them was so total, not a buzz of insects or chirp of birds could be heard.

Clearly, the animals’ instincts had made them aware of danger.

The tiger-headed toad lying on the ground, with its body swelling increasingly, resembled a tiger ready to pounce.

And the withered yellow grass around its body also proved the extreme toxicity it carried, not to be underestimated.

"Kid, got any last words?"

Qingshan Linan looked at Lin Fan with a defiant face.

"I don’t have any last words, but I do have a question. You clearly had a chance to escape, so why did you stay? Are you deliberately seeking death?"

Lin Fan watched Qingshan Linan with keen eyes.

To this moment, he couldn’t understand why the man hadn’t run away.

"Why should I run? This land is as familiar to me as my own backyard, and before long, it will belong to us. So, you’re the ones who should be running."

Qingshan Linan caressed the tiger-headed toad, his eyes brimming with fanaticism.

"You don’t really believe what you’re saying, do you? Even though you’re a high-ranking Onmyoji, you are not at the top. Staying here to fight alone is simply seeking death. So do you really think I’m going to believe your nonsense?"

Lin Fan crossed his arms.

This matter was getting increasingly strange.

"Stop gabbing. Do you think you have what it takes to best me? This is the burial ground I’ve chosen for you. You should be satisfied."

Qingshan Linan clenched his fist, glaring at Lin Fan with an arrogant face.

But in his brows, Lin Fan saw a trace of determination.

It was the kind of resolve that insisted on facing death even when certain of it.

"How about we make a deal? You tell me your plot honestly, and I’ll let you live."

The more resolute he was to die, the more likely it was that he harbored a secret that necessitated his death.

Lin Fan was convinced it was a conspiracy.

Therefore, the significance of killing a wanted criminal didn’t compare to uncovering a conspiracy.

"Come off it, I’m a criminal wanted in sixteen countries. Do you think I’d believe you’d just let me go? I don’t buy your story one bit."

A glimmer of hope, predictably, stirred some interest in Qingshan Linan.

But he didn’t believe for a second that Lin Fan would let him go.

"How will you know if you don’t try? After all, I’m not your deceitful senior brother. If I’m not wrong, he’s the one who told you to find your own death, right?"

Lin Fan’s words were a shot in the dark.

Still, the other’s evidently surprised micro-expression did not escape his eyes.

Qingshan Linan quickly tried to control his facial expressions, denying the charge.

"Don’t talk nonsense. I act of my own accord, without needing anyone’s advice."

"Oh, so he asked you to injure Dragon Tooth Team members but explicitly not to kill them, to avoid provoking Dragon Tooth into sealing your altars. And the reason for injuring them must be to gain something, or perhaps he has crossed your financier?"

The light in Lin Fan’s eyes intensified.

The injured Su Delong had just offended Xu Shiyong yesterday.

The underlying reasons were now glaringly obvious.

"I’m tired of your nonsense. Prepare to die."

Qingshan Linan was caught off guard, with just a few sentences, the other man had guessed the general outline.

Where could Qingshan Linan dare to speak further? He hurriedly slapped the tiger-headed toad.

"Croak!"

The tiger-headed toad immediately opened its mouth.

A stream of green mucus shot out like a bullet.

Aimed at Lin Fan.

"Pfft!"

Lin Fan quickly dodged to the side.

And the trees directly behind where he had been standing began to emit a white vapor.

The corroded trees collapsed instantly.

Clearly demonstrating the terrifying corrosive power of the toxic mucus.

"Why the rush? Isn’t it nice to chat a bit?"

Seeing Qingshan Linan infuriate, Lin Fan could confirm that his previous guesses were correct.

"There’s nothing I want to talk to you about. Prepare to die."

Qingshan Linan urged the tiger-headed toad on.

With its mouth opened, it continually sprayed deadly venom.

For a moment, the area within tens of meters was full of foul stench.

The pungent smell made people want to vomit.

But even with the opponent’s dense sludge, Lin Fan could still handle it with ease.

His figure, dodging like a ghost, still chose not to attack.

Because in Aoyama Rinan’s mind, there were still many things he needed to uncover.

He had to find a way to dig them out.

"It’s pointless, we might as well have a proper talk," he said.

Lin Fan, maintaining an absolute advantage, dodged the sludge once again.

Looking at the tiger-headed amphibian that had begun to slow down,

it was evident that its attacks had reached their limit.

"Do you think now that you hold the winning ticket, you want to look down on me, the poor worm, with the pity of a victor?"

Aoyama Rinan still clenched his fists,

but his face wore a ferocious smile, "Put away your hypocritical face. You just want to get so-called intelligence from me, right? However, it’s a pity, because of your delay, the situation which was surely in your favor has completely changed."

"Do you think you still have a chance?"

Lin Fan, with his hands in his pockets, sensed something was off.

The smile on the opponent’s face seemed to hide something.

So, with a push of his feet, he quickly leaped toward Aoyama Rinan.

It seemed that only by getting hold of his neck first would he have a chance to get more information.

"You’re too late!"

As Lin Fan advanced, Aoyama Rinan’s hands swiftly formed seals.

Accompanied by an obscure chant that resounded,

he actually slapped the tiger-headed amphibian.

"Croak!"

The originally over two-meter tall tiger-headed amphibian began to swell rapidly.

At the same time, the venom that had been spattering around rapidly turned into a dark green toxic fog.

In an instant, it enveloped an area of one kilometer in diameter.

"Boom!"

A loud noise followed within the poison fog.

In the dense fog that no longer revealed any figures, strange cries echoed.

"Over here!"

This soaring toxic fog naturally did not escape the pursuit of the Dragon Tooth Team.

Xu Zhi Rou hurriedly led the special forces and the Dragon Tooth Team members to rush over.

"Don’t go there, it’s poisonous!"

But upon getting closer, they found that all vegetation had perished within the green vapor,

and with each passing breeze, the entire toxic fog continued to drift bit by bit.

"Damn, there’s still someone trapped inside!"

The others did not recognize Lin Fan.

They only knew that this person was mighty.

But faced with this venom that could corrode vegetation instantly,

nobody could get close.

Someone attempted to touch the deadly poison with a swing stick,

but as soon as it touched, white smoke began to rise.

This poison could even corrode metal, which forced everyone to retreat repeatedly.

No one dared to move closer.

"Call for a helicopter immediately to disperse the poison fog!"

Xu Zhi Rou, frantic with urgency, quickly picked up the radio to call for support.

Without any Taoist practitioners to disperse the mist, they could only rely on modern equipment.

"Captain, something’s wrong inside!"

But just as her words fell, a burst of black light suddenly emerged from within the dark green poison fog.

Before everyone could understand, a scorching heat swept out from within.

"Get down!"
