CHAPTER 544: CHAPTER 558 THE PITIFUL TOAD

"Croak croak croak!" The toad was utterly bewildered. What exactly was happening? Had Beasts Valley really sold him out just like that?

And they didn’t even get a decent price for him, not a word said before he was handed over to Wang Cai as a plaything.

In fact, after hearing about the current situation of Beasts Valley, the Beiming elder had given up on the idea of making a move on them.

These members of the Demon Clan were acquaintances of old, and the Beiming elder was certain that they had not taken part in the ambush against him back then.

After listening to the explanation by the Valley Master of Beasts Valley, he also learned of the difficulties Beasts Valley was currently facing, which were in stark contrast to the past. In the past, the Demon Clan shared dominion with the Human Clan, but now, they had become underlings of some mysterious force; the difference was like heaven and earth.

"Let’s go." Mu Can patted Wang Cai on the head; although this opportunity was good, in Mu Can’s eyes, these members of Beasts Valley were merely hidden victims. Even if he wiped them all out, it wouldn’t change the situation in three hundred years.

In Mu Can’s view, the matters at hand were no longer within the capability of these individuals to deal with. It was all determined by those lurking in the shadows. Mu Can believed that the Beiming elder’s thoughts were the same as his.

"Teacher, where shall we go?" After leaving Beasts Valley, Mu Can still appeared utterly bored and really lost all sense of direction.

"The teacher still has some things to take care of. You hunt and feed by yourself in this deserted area. Try your best to improve your strength and break through to the All Things Realm as soon as possible. Those bearing the Great Taoist Rift who break through to the All Things Realm will receive a very unexpected surprise, and it will awaken another ability in you."

The Beiming elder looked at Mu Can and said with a solemn face.

Mu Can knew that the Beiming elder couldn’t stay by his side forever; he had just broken free from his seal and surely had many matters to attend to, so he nodded in response.

"Here is a Jade Pendant for you; it can withstand attacks from a Heaven Rank expert ten times. Ten attacks should be enough for you to escape."

The Beiming elder gave Mu Can a few items, among which the Jade Pendant could protect her, but the most precious gift was the Beiming elder’s experience of breaking through to the All Things Realm—this was simply the most valuable thing in the world for Mu Can.

"Woof woof woof! Elder, are you leaving?" Wang Cai looked at the Beiming elder with eyes full of reluctance.

Although they had only spent a short time together, Wang Cai had come to see the Beiming elder as the biggest support he had ever encountered.

The sensation of swaggering by riding on someone else’s might was just too thrilling.

"Croak croak croak croak!" The toad joined in the chorus, but his tone was indeed filled with mirth.

In the presence of the Beiming elder, he dared not make even the slightest move, but once the Beiming elder left, he could quietly look for an opportunity to escape from Mu Can’s clutches; he just couldn’t stand Wang Cai for even a minute more.

All along the way, any small move he made would surely attract a beating from Wang Cai. He wasn’t just an ordinary toad; otherwise, he would have been beaten to death by Wang Cai long ago.

"I almost forgot about you. If you can protect my disciple well in the future, I can assure you that I’ll reveal your seal when we meet next time." The Beiming elder looked at the toad, waved his hand casually, and the toad’s strength slowly returned, but he was enveloped in a halo of light.

And from the toad’s body, a slightly smaller speck of light flew out and directly entered Mu Can’s body.

Mu Can lightly gasped, feeling that with just a thought, he could directly kill the Toad in front of him.

It seemed that this was the method the Beiming Elder had left for Mu Can to control the Toad.

"Guagua guagua!" The Toad looked desperately anxious. Just now, it felt all the bindings on itself disappear, thinking the Beiming Elder was going to let him go, but in the next moment, it was sent plummeting from Heaven straight into Hell.

No wonder even the Valley Master of Beasts Valley looked so submissive in front of the old man. This Elder was truly terrifying. He had directly extracted the Essence Blood from its body, and had even forcefully established a master-servant contract with Mu Can.

"Thank you, Teacher." Mu Can respectfully bowed to the Beiming Elder, knowing that his teacher was concerned for his safety, and therefore had provided him with a Heaven Rank enforcer. With the Toad by his side, even if he faced a Heaven Rank enemy, he could let the Toad block the attack while he took the chance to escape, ensuring his survival.

"Guagua guagua!" The Toad was terribly anxious, preferring to follow the Beiming Elder rather than stay with Mu Can.

"Oh? You want to follow me? Do you know where I am going? You’ll surely die if you do." The Beiming Elder looked at the Toad and spoke.

"Guagua guagua!" The Toad became even more anxious. It would rather stay by Wang Cai’s side and be bullied than die for certain.

"Alright, I’m leaving. If I come back later, I will look for you then." The Beiming Elder said and then vanished in an instant.

"Still thinking of running away?" Wang Cai looked at the Toad with a strange smile on his face.

"Guagua guagua!" The Toad, feeling uneasy, instantly hid behind Mu Can.

Having regained its Heaven Rank strength, the Toad did not regard Wang Cai highly, but it also had no courage to resist Wang Cai.

Because it knew that if it had even the slightest intent on laying a hand on Wang Cai, Mu Can would sense it and would plunge the Toad into a torturous state worse than death.

"Wang Cai, beat it." Just when the Toad thought it had found a safe place to hide, Mu Can’s words sent a chill through its body. Don’t forget, it was this Toad that had the entire Black Winged Tribe captured.

"Guagua guagua!" Not long after, the Toad looked at Mu Can with a battered and bruised face, its large, bean-sized eyes filled with tears.

"Enough, just this once. If you don’t make any mistakes later, even Wang Cai won’t have a chance to hit you."

Wang Cai shook its tail contentedly on the side, huhu, being able to pardon a Beasts Valley Master was already a pity for Wang Cai, how could it possibly spare the Toad now? That was simply impossible.

"Where shall we go?" Now Mu Can was in a quandary. After leaving Beasts Valley, Mu Can must break through his strength before the Beiming Elder returns, aiming to advance to the All Things Realm.

However, considering the only symbol on his White Bone Stick, Mu Can was also troubled.

The Beiming Elder’s White Bone Stick was densely covered with nearly tens of thousands of mystical symbols.

The path to strength breakthrough is long and arduous. It seemed that to break through to the All Things Realm, he would need to consume many more Demon Beasts.
