Yang Fei's mouth was wide open as he looked at Big Stick Toad in disbelief. His expression was blank, and he suspected that his head had been kicked by a donkey.
Liu Jiang could get clues this way?
However, he quickly memorized what Big Stick Toad had just said.
Liu Jiang was slightly excited. He finally knew why this timid toad was so unyielding.
So it was to protect his lover, Little Jade Toad.
Liu Jiang pondered for a moment and used another intelligence subduing fruit.
Another ball of purple energy shot into Big Stick Toad's mind, and he was even more stunned.
Liu Jiang said regretfully, "Let me tell you some unfortunate news. Little Jade Toad doesn't love you anymore. A while ago, someone found out that she was mating with a rat demon."
Yang Fei looked at Liu Jiang in disbelief. How did he come up with such a retarded story?
But something even more unbelievable happened.
The toad demon's eyes bulged as he screamed, "No, no, this can't be true. You lied to me."
The intelligence of the toad demon was seriously insufficient. He only knew that toads liked to mate in the open.
He also knew that Little Jade Toad did not like him. He had pursued her for a long time, but she had always been aloof and did not accept his love.
He also knew that there was indeed a rat demon in their group. It had a high cultivation level, was handsome, and was very flirtatious. He often seduced other female demons.
That gutsy rat demon would seduce Little Jade Demon every day.
Liu Jiang's words accidentally struck the heart of the toad demon.
Because his intelligence was seriously insufficient, he did not wonder how Liu Jiang knew about this.
He only wanted to know if this was true or not.
He felt that he was no longer a toad but a tree frog. His entire body was green.
"I have no reason to lie to you." Liu Jiang shrugged lightly and pointed at Yang Fei. "If you don't believe me, ask him. He was watching from the side."
The toad demon immediately looked at Yang Fei, eager to get accurate information from him.
Yang Fei's eyelids twitched. He felt that his intelligence had been insulted, but he did not drop the ball. He said solemnly, "At that time, that rat demon was climbing onto the female toad…"
Yang Fei described it in detail, as if he had really been watching from the side.
When Big Stick Toad heard this, that scene instantly appeared in his mind.
"Ah…"
He had broken down. Completely.
His heart was broken.
Liu Jiang guided him patiently. "Do you want revenge? Let those two adulterous demons die without a grave."
"I want revenge. I want to kill them." The toad demon was furious, and his eyes were filled with crazy killing intent.
He had peed in his pants for Little Jade Toad, but he did not divulge any information.
But what had she done?
She actually mated with a rat demon.
He had completely broken down.
He felt like he was about to crack.
If he could not have Little Jade Toad, he would destroy both of them.
The toad demon's mentality was completely twisted.
Liu Jiang consoled him. "Now tell me, how do you contact Little Jade Toad? And where is she now?"
"She's in Eastern Mountain County. She's the boss of Listen to the Rain Rustic Tea Shop. That tea shop is at 318 East Street," the toad demon said through gritted teeth.
Beside him, Yang Fei rubbed his head in confusion.
Liu Jiang managed to get the information just like that?
It was too unreal.
He was starting to doubt his life.
Liu Jiang was delighted and continued to ask, "Where is that rat demon?"
"I don't know, but that cheap demon, Little Jade Toad, must know. She's a demon general under the Winged Wolf Demon King. She's directly in charge of demons in our group. All the demons in our group listen to her," Big Stick Toad said through gritted teeth.
Liu Jiang tilted his head and said, "Director Yang, go look for Director Zhao."
Soon, Zhao Laoxiu arrived at the interrogation room and asked Big Stick Toad personally. Big Stick Toad gritted his teeth and repeated the information he had told him.
"Good, good. Well done."
Zhao Laoxiu was so excited that she gave Liu Jiang more than 4,000 points of joy.
He patted Liu Jiang's shoulder happily. "If you can eliminate all the spies in the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom in Eastern Mountain County this time, your position as a ninth-grade immortal official will be set in stone. You will also be rewarded with a lot of resources."
"This is all thanks to your nurturing, Sir," Liu Jiang said respectfully and kindly.
"Haha, kid." Zhao Laoxiu was happy. Then he said, "I'll go to Eastern Mountain County now and tell the Inspectorate Head this news personally. Yang Fei, you'll be in charge of the Inspection Bureau's affairs for the next two days."
"Yes!" Yang Fei nodded respectfully.
After Zhao Laoxiu left, Yang Fei informed the three inspection teams to cancel the emergency assembly order.
After work, Liu Jiang left the bureau and started distributing money on the streets.
When he saw children and beggars, he would give them money and he would give tips when he bought things.
Because he had money and his mentality had gradually changed, Liu Jiang was much more generous.
Sometimes, he would offer a few taels of silver.
He was exceptionally forthright.
In more than two hours, he had spent 50 taels of silver.
His gains were naturally great.
In the evening, he had already accumulated 230,000 points of joy, 160,000 points of resentment, and some other emotions.
At night, Liu Jiang returned home.
He began to tally the harvest on the Treasure Tree.
From killing intent, 34 madness fruits.
From jealousy, 40 intelligence subduing fruits.
From regret, 2 dreamscape fruits.
From resentment, 16 epiphany fruits.
From joy, 23 energy fruits.
The spirit controlling fruit from fear still needed 8,468,530 points of fear to mature.
He was still short of 7,999,1200 admiration points.
Liu Jiang began to refine the fruits.
After refining 5 energy fruits, Liu Jiang's cultivation level advanced to the peak of two-star Bronze.
After refining another 12 fruits, his cultivation level broke through to three-star Bronze.
Then he refined the remaining five fruits. He needed nine more energy fruits to reach the peak of three-star Bronze.
Then Liu Jiang used 16 epiphany fruits. He was short of 21 fruits for the Lightning Inducing Technique.
Then Liu Jiang looked at the body tempering fruit with burning eyes.
With a thought, a fruit turned into rich and pure energy that spread throughout his body.
Under the influence of the special energy, Liu Jiang's limbs and bones were quickly strengthened.
Liu Jiang felt as if his entire body was wrapped in a warm cloud. It was exceptionally comfortable.
After completely refining and absorbing the body tempering fruit, Liu Jiang realized that his punching power had increased by 100 catties.
He continued refining.
After refining three body tempering fruits in a row, Liu Jiang could clearly sense that his strength had increased by more than 300 catties.
In the past, without using his magic power, his punching power was about 190 catties. Now, it was more than 490 catties. It had increased by 300 catties.
Liu Jiang clenched his fists and felt the explosive power. He even wanted to roar.
In addition to strength, his speed and reaction speed had also increased significantly.
His five senses had also been greatly enhanced.
Sitting quietly in the room, he could even hear the buzzing of flies as they flapped their wings outside the window.
He looked up and could clearly see the thin spider silk on the beam.
From the corner, the stench of socks became exceptionally strong.
His hearing, vision, touch, smell, and taste had all improved greatly.
Everything he came into contact with became more vivid and clearer than before.
Liu Jiang swung his fists and feet. Every punch was like a heavy mountain. The force was abnormally strong and heavy, as if it could tear tigers and leopards apart.
After a series of punches and kicks, Liu Jiang felt his blood boil as if he had inexhaustible strength.
He felt refreshed and full of energy. His mind was clear and his thoughts were unusually quick.
The effects of this body tempering fruit condensed from the power of merit are actually so terrifying. One fruit can increase one's strength by 100 catties, and it can greatly increase one's five senses, as well as others.
Liu Jiang was secretly speechless.
The effect of this body tempering fruit far exceeded his expectations.
The feeling of having a strong body was extremely comfortable.
I wonder if I can obtain merit by killing other demons.
Liu Jiang thought to himself and thought of the big-headed ghost in the Southern Mountain Cemetery.
However, he was always a little afraid of ghosts.
So he would gather more joy and resentment, increase his cultivation, and master the basics of the Lightning Inducing Technique.
Then he would clean up the big-headed ghosts.
