Chapter 650 - 650: Toad Skill

"Ahhhhh!"

Zhang Shuai, who had fallen to the ground, let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

But strangely, he waited for a long time and didn't feel like he was being hit.

A "thud" in Zhang Shuai's heart, could it be that he is... already dead?

He was someone who usually liked to read supernatural novels, so it wasn't surprising for him to think this way.

Tentatively opening his eyes, Zhang Shuai screamed again: "Ah!"

In his vision, a hand was steadily holding that box weighing over three hundred pounds.

This made Zhang Shuai even more horrified, not even the legendary Qilin Arm could be so exaggerated, right?

"Care to explain?" Xiao Feng looked down at him, speaking in a cold tone: "If the explanation isn't reasonable, it might fall and crush you."

"Don't... I'll talk, I'll talk." Zhang Shuai hurriedly said, "I was just curious and wanted to see what was inside."

Xiao Feng said expressionlessly: "And then?"

"No, no then... just pure curiosity," Zhang Shuai said nervously.

"Heh, do you even believe that yourself?" Xiao Feng sneered and said, "What's inside has absolutely nothing to do with you, does it?"

"It doesn't," Zhang Shuai swallowed unnaturally and said, "I'm, I'm, I'm wrong, please don't tell the company, otherwise I'll lose my job."

Xiao Feng chuckled lightly, casually tossing the box onto the semi-trailer and said, "We're all adults, yet you talk like a child. Since you made a mistake, you should pay for it."

With that, he immediately called the transportation company, explained the situation, and requested a change of driver.

Zhang Shuai gritted his teeth, glaring at Xiao Feng with sinister eyes, without the slightest sense of acknowledging his mistakes or the awareness to take responsibility.

Of course, this was normal.

Expecting a junkie to admit their mistakes and correct them is obviously unrealistic.

The transportation company, however, didn't try to cover or shirk, immediately saying they would fire the driver and even voluntarily reduced part of the shipping fee, making it hard to pick fault with their attitude.

"You can go now." Xiao Feng waved his hand signaling.

Zhang Shuai got up from the ground, turned around and left without a word. Not far out, he deliberately turned back, glaring viciously at Xiao Feng, his resentment was evident at a glance.

Xiao Feng didn't mind this, nor did he think his actions were excessive.

Sunken eyes, prominent dark circles, an emaciated figure, all typical traits of a junkie.

If this hadn't happened, Xiao Feng might have turned a blind eye as long as the opponent delivered the goods on time, their character had nothing to do with him.

But with this incident, Xiao Feng couldn't allow Zhang Shuai to continue in transportation work, preemptively removing this unstable factor was the best course of action.

At this moment, all eyes, including Qian Dajiang's, began to regard Xiao Feng with fear.

After all, that feat of single-handedly holding up a weight of over three hundred pounds without breaking a sweat was beyond normal understanding, making fear unavoidable.

"Don't just stand there, get back to work!" Qian Dajiang called out.

The staff snapped back to reality, each one shoving their heads down and started moving boxes, not even daring to speak loudly.

...

In the courtyard, the battle had become more intense.

There were already spikes on Aspergillus oryzae's paper fan, resembling daggers, each swing bringing a glint of cold light.

Bearded Hu Guangxin was gritting his teeth, unable to count how many times the little girl had pulled his beard, the heartache combined with the physical pain directly exploding his mentality, making his attacks even more fierce.

"Young girls, let me show you what an old hand at this is made of today!" Elder Ha shouted with pride.

With that, he was the first to withdraw from the attack range, saying to the five companions, "Since you're all holding back, let me be the first to get serious."

Lin Zhiyan and the others immediately became vigilant, dealing with the five around them while also keeping an eye on Elder Ha not far away.

However, an unexpected thing happened.

Elder Ha suddenly knelt down with a "thud", cupping his hands and said, "You three young ladies are indeed formidable, I admit defeat!"

"..." Lin Zhiyan.

"..." Little girl.

"..." Lu Yao.

Where's the boasting about the old blade? Where did the promised getting serious go?

This is how you get serious?

For a moment, you could hear a pin drop, time seemed to stand still, everyone staring at Elder Ha kneeling on the ground.

"Admitting defeat is fine, but kneeling is unnecessary," Lin Zhiyan said coldly, "You can leave now, we'll pretend nothing happened, you never entered the courtyard."

"No!" Elder Ha insisted, "I won't get up unless someone helps me."

Lin Zhiyan frowned, feeling there was something off with those words, showing a thoughtful expression.

Elder Ha was waiting for this moment, suddenly bowing his head, a crossbow bolt gusted out from the back of his neck, shooting straight at Lin Zhiyan.

Inside, standing by the door witnessing this scene, Ninth Master stomped his foot in regret, wondering how he could forget Elder Ha still had that trick up his sleeve?

In the early years, Elder Ha had tricked countless characters stronger than him with this "Bowing Crossbow" technique.

The trick was simple: when beaten down, kneel, and when the opponent comes to help or gets distracted, immediately bow and fire a bolt, a deadly move!

But now, it's too late to say anything.

Outside the courtyard, watching the arrow fly towards her, Lin Zhiyan's pupils contracted sharply.

She knew she couldn't dodge it, so she could only try to avoid her vital points.

Just not sure if the bolt was poisoned?

The six old men were all expectant, having fought for such a long time, they've already concluded that Lin Zhiyan is the strongest and most combat aware of the three.

If they could eliminate her, the situation would basically be stabilized.

At the critical moment, Lu Yao burst out with speed beyond reason, appearing beside Lin Zhiyan like a teleportation, blocking with a ruler engraved with codes in her hand.

"Clang!"

An ear-piercing sound rang, Lu Yao's hand trembled at the tiger's mouth, instantly tearing a cut, blood gushing out.

Lin Zhiyan, on the other hand, retreated several steps, keeping her balance with the help of the little girl.

"Yaoyao, are you okay?" Lin Zhiyan asked nervously, looking at Lu Yao.

Lu Yao shook her head indicating she was fine, and both sides returned to a standoff.

At this moment, Elder Ha was almost prostrate on the ground, his cheeks bulging like a toad.

"Ribbit... ribbit..."

Elder Ha opened his mouth, producing two frog-like croaks, simultaneously exerting force in his limbs, leaping three meters high and pouncing directly towards Lin Zhiyan.

The impact from the descent, combined with Elder Ha's original power, doubled the augmentation from the dual forces.

Lin Zhiyan didn't dare to wait for him to land, swinging her long whip, directly binding Elder Ha, and with all her might, flung him into the adjacent courtyard.
