As it spoke, it actually discarded a black box, tossing it into Li Fan's arms, and then, with a flash of its silhouette, it embraced the cat and disappeared to who knows where.
Li Fan was at a loss for a moment, looking around, but with his Golden Core-period Divine Sense, he couldn't detect a trace of the Jade Frog Granny's whereabouts through whatever method she was using. The black box, which seemed to be made of wood, appeared to be for storing scriptures.
Li Fan hesitated, then opened the box. He saw that it indeed contained letters and writings. He glanced over them but noticed no hidden weapons, venom, talismans, curses, or anything of the sort.
A ghastly, 'giggling' laugh like that of a ghostly toad came from behind him, unclear if it was mocking his caution or meant something else.
Li Fan furrowed his brows and closed the scripture box.
He truly hadn't expected Jade Frog Granny, that monster, to play this trick on him, actually returning to deliver a message!
