Chapter 393: Chapter 0393: Jade Toad

A group of strong men threw away their canned food containers, picked up their guns, and aimed them at Long Fei and the others, gesturing for them to get up.

Long Fei frowned and lectured, "Can’t you protect the environment a bit? Can’t you put the empty cans in a bag after eating?"

"Shut your trash-talk, blabber on and I’ll shoot you right now!"

The strong man cursed, loosened the ropes, and had them walk ahead.

Fat Wang clutched his stomach and shouted, "As people facing death, can’t you give us something to eat so we can die on a full stomach?"

"Damn it!"

The group of strong men glared at him, their fingers itching on the triggers.

Zhang Jinwen and Cai Jiu followed on either side of Gao Chi, who was leading the way in front.

Long Fei, seeing the direction they were headed, silently guessed that the Blood Spirit Flower could be underneath the waterfall.

The group arrived close to the waterfall and stopped about ten meters away from the water pool below it.

Li Zhenni pinched Long Fei and whispered from behind, "Before we die, there’s something I must tell you."

"What is it?"

Long Fei raised his eyebrows curiously.

Li Zhenni said, "You haven’t fulfilled the date you promised me!"

Long Fei coughed up blood and coughed twice before saying, "Sister-in-law, you’re Brother Chu’s fiancée. A brother’s wife should not be coveted, can we please drop the date?"

"Get lost!"

Li Zhenni’s eyes bulged with anger, and she twisted him angrily on his body, saying, "Is this how you promised me last time?"

"Which time was last time?"

Long Fei pretended to be confused, acting as if he’d forgotten everything.

Fat Wang had promised her the last time he was job hunting.

That was just a temporary convenience for his younger brother-in-law, mere lip service; how could he take it seriously?

Li Zhenni clenched her fists, thinking that if she survived this ordeal, she would definitely punish this brat when she got back.

His words were unreliable; did he think she was easy to bully?

Up front, Gao Chi took out a small black banner and started to mutter something to it.

With no wind, the small banner fluttered, and in an instant, billows of black vapor sprouted from it, looking like the dense smoke after a big fire.

Gathering continuously in the air, it formed a three-meter-tall figure wielding a spear, resembling a Netherworld Soldier, and making a mournful sound, it plunged into the water pool.

This was a ghost-exorcising method passed down by Gao Family ancestors and considered a heterodox path of Mount Mao Technique.

The black banner was also known as the Mystic Yin Soul Gathering Banner.

It could capture Yin Souls and refine them into one’s own Netherworld Soldiers and Generals.

Gao Chi’s ancestor Gao Lian could summon three hundred Netherworld Soldiers and Generals with a wave of the banner, achieving great renown at that time.

However, they met their nemesis in Gongsun Sheng, as Yin Souls, beings of extreme Yin, feared things of extreme Yang.

Gongsun Sheng’s Five Thunder Sky Gang Righteous Method was the very nemesis of the Mystic Yin Soul Gathering Banner.

In the water pool, there was a bubbling and churning.

Soon, the Netherworld Soldier emerged with its spear, and with a swoosh, it hovered above Gao Chi’s head.

Zhang Jinwen’s monkey on his body, facing the water pool, started to show its teeth and shrieked loudly.

Long Fei and the others widened their eyes; this was like watching a fantasy movie.

This was magic, truly wondrous magic.

Compared to the charlatan Cai Jiu, Gao Chi, as a master, was a hundred times stronger.

Even a fool could tell now that the Spiritual Beast was hiding in the pool, the Blood Spirit Flower, nourished by the beast, must also be nearby.

Long Fei’s mouth curled into a smile, preparing to take advantage of the chaos.

Suddenly, there were two croaking sounds.

An object the color of jade toad peeked its head out, covered all over with walnut-sized poison sacs, a terrifying sight for anyone with trypophobia.

Li Zhenni burst out exclaiming, "It’s a Frog Plus!"

Everyone else was also frightened, their eyes wide open.

This frog was as big as a small calf, its eyes like light bulbs, warily surveying the group of people.

Long Fei corrected, "Big sister, it’s called a toad, okay?"

"Is there a difference?"

Li Zhenni looked at him with disdain.

Long Fei said, "Of course, there’s a difference. Toads have pointed mouths and bumps all over their bodies, frogs are much prettier!"

Li Zhenni mused, "I get it now, the ones with acne are toads, and the undeveloped ones are frogs."

"Your sister!"

Long Fei didn’t want to talk to her anymore.

Gao Chi bowed his fists and politely said to the Jade Toad, "Brother Toad, it’s been over a decade since we parted last. My purpose for coming here doesn’t need to be stated again. Please lend me the Blood Spirit Flower. I’ve prepared a generous gift as compensation, and I ask you not to start a big fight!"

With a wave of his hand, a group of strong men pushed Long Fei and the others forward.

Only then did the group realize that this old man intended to feed them to the toad as food.

The Jade Toad’s bulbous eyes stared at Long Fei and his companions as they turned from side to side, indicating it was not interested.

It croaked, signaling the old man to leave immediately and not to disturb its peace.

The old man wanted to negotiate further, but Long Fei secretly flicked a pebble that hit the Jade Toad with a thump.

Enraged, the toad bellowed, its throat puffing up instantly.

Gao Chi shouted, "Fire, kill them!"

He knew this was the prelude to the Jade Toad’s attack.

Since the toad didn’t want these sacrifices, he decided to kill them all.

The strong men raised their submachine guns and unleashed a barrage of gunfire at the Jade Toad.

The muzzle flashed with sparks, and in an instant, hundreds of bullets were fired, enveloping the Jade Toad.

Long Fei was prepared. His Essential Qi shook, sending the two closest strong men flying.

He grabbed Li Zhenni and Zhang Xuan’er, and before the gunfire started, rolled onto the ground, also kicking Fat Wang and Lu Buping to the ground.

The bullets flew by, barely missing their bodies.

The five of them rolled to one side, dodging the sweeping bullets and quickly hid behind a large rock, allowing the Jade Toad to inflict harm on their pursuers.

A layer of pond water enveloped the Jade Toad; as the bullets hit the water, they splattered on the surface.

The water was extremely dense, resembling bullet-proof glass.

The bullets spun on its surface, buzzing, and finally fell one by one into the water.

Everyone present was stunned, not expecting the Jade Toad to have cultivated to such a degree.

That water barrier was clearly actuated by spiritual power.

It, like Gao Chi, may have broken through to the Heart-motion Realm.

After a round of bullets, the toad launched its counterattack.

Its poison sacs opened wide, and with a spray like water guns, it shot out streams of black venom.

Gao Chi yelled, "Retreat, everyone retreat!"

The crowd knew all too well the potency of this substance, and they broke into a hasty retreat.

The venom wasn’t like bullets, there was only one when shot out.

This stuff poured down like rain, quickly covering the strong men below.

With a sizzling noise, several strong men were hit, their bodies immediately emitting copious white smoke.

They screamed, desperately slapping at the affected areas, trying to wipe off the venom.

In the blink of an eye, they were reduced to puddles of blood, and even their submachine guns tainted by the blood corroded into scraps of iron.

Everyone on the scene was terrified, even Long Fei widened his eyes, thinking that this venom was truly the perfect product for murder and robbery! If it were poured over a corpse, it would be more terrifying than sulfuric acid, leaving no trace to worry about.
