(Revised Chapter) 168: Chapter 167: Just Call It Toad!
(Revised Chapter) Li Chen didn’t expect Ye Chuxue, who was in a weakened state, to suddenly burst out with such terrifying strength, and was quite scared by the surprise.
“Xue’er, you’re awake!”
With her eyes wide open, Ye Chuxue asked, “Hey, what did you do to ?”
Suddenly, it seed she rembered sothing unpleasant and involuntarily shivered.
“Zhenzi looked like she crawled out from the screen, and that little girl…”
“Don’t be scared, Chuxue, it’s all okay now!”
Li Chen stepped forward, taking Ye Chuxue’s hand to reassure her not to be afraid.
Feeling the warmth from Li Chen’s palm, Ye Chuxue’s anxious heart gradually settled down.
…
The next morning, as dawn broke, Li Chen got up early as usual.
He prepared breakfast for Ye Chuxue just like before.
After lingering in bed for an extra ten minutes or so, Ye Chuxue got up to wash and joined Li Chen for breakfast.
After breakfast, Li Chen presented the now miniaturized Jade Golden Toad to Ye Chuxue.
Food-lover Ye Chuxue blinked and gently poked the Jade Golden Toad with her chopsticks.
“Is this a special addition to the al today?
What is this thing, and how do you eat it?”
Hearing Ye Chuxue’s question, the Jade Golden Toad’s little heart thumped wildly in fear, and it quickly croaked in protest.
Ye Chuxue was startled to find out that the Jade Golden Toad was alive.
“Ah, it’s alive?”
Li Chen, lines ford on his forehead, explained, “Xue’er, this is the Jade Golden Toad, the one from Yutan Lake, it’s not for eating!”
Ye Chuxue’s eyes widened in shock as she stared at the Jade Golden Toad, which was now the size of a frog.
“But the toad from Yutan Lake wasn’t this small, how did it beco so tiny?” she asked while gesturing with her hands.
Li Chen slapped his forehead and said, “Well, that’s not the point.
You should keep it as a pet from now on.
If there’s any danger and I’m not there, it can also protect you!”
After speaking, he gently poked the Jade Golden Toad’s head with his finger.
“From now on, Xue’er, you are its new master.
If anything happens to you, even the slightest bit, I’ll cook it in a hotpot!”
The Jade Golden Toad felt like crying without tears, protesting inwardly: Co on, didn’t you just say it’s not to be eaten, and now you threaten to cook in a hotpot?
Bitter in its heart, but the toad said nothing.
Huff, that’s the pride!
The Jade Golden Toad’s original form, although not very pleasant to look at, and to describe it as “ugly” wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
However, now that it had turned mini, it was a crystalline Jade Toad, definitely a charming pet.
Won naturally have no resistance to adorable pets, and Ye Chuxue was no exception.
“Li Chen, what’s its na?”
Li Chen casually replied, “Toad!”
With a look of disgust, Ye Chuxue said, “Ah, Toad?
What an unpleasant na!”
The Jade Golden Toad nodded vigorously, seeming to find a kindred spirit, its eyes almost brimming with tears.
Li Chen said, “If you think it’s unpleasant, why don’t you give it a new na?”
Ye Chuxue blinked her eyes and said, “It’s so cute, let’s call it Little Cutie!”
Li Chen simply shrugged, indicating he had no objections.
The Jade Golden Toad felt tears coming on again, thinking, I’m a descendant of an Ancient Divine Beast, not pureblooded perhaps, but still, an Ancient Divine Beast.
You na Little Cutie, what’s the aning of this?
It’s even worse than Toad; though that’s also not very nice, at least it has so vigor!
The Jade Golden Toad hopped and jumped about, croaking in protest.
But to Ye Chuxue, this protest was interpreted differently.
“Look, Chen, it really likes the na Little Cutie, it’s jumping three feet high in excitent!”
Jade Golden Toad: “…”
…
The Jade Golden Toad’s combat power was comparable to an Early Innate Martial Arts Grandmaster.
If it transford back to its original form, even Middle Innate Grandmasters would struggle to defeat it in a hundred or so exchanges.
With it by Ye Chuxue’s side, as long as the opponent didn’t send two Grandmaster Level experts, Ye Chuxue would not be hurt again.
However, to be on the safe side, Li Chen still wanted to find soone else.
During his trip to Bamboo Island, this person could secretly protect Ye Chuxue and Aunt Tang, ensuring their absolute safety.
The person he was looking for was Moo Hee, Old Sir Moo!
Although Old Sir Moo had retired from the frontlines, his influence in the military region still persisted.
His protégés and forr staff were scattered all over Jiangnan.
Therefore, with them stepping in, nothing could be more suitable…
