Starting with the frog, he has ruled for eternity.

Chapter 30 Caw! The Cawing Heavenly Emperor Commands the Four Directions!

"Croak!"

Nan Nan's eyes lit up, and she immediately straightened her back, like a little messenger: "Little Frog said that since you all know you were wrong, you should now listen to its arrangements!"

Quack! That's right! That's exactly it!

Fang Yuan nodded, indicating that Nan Nan was not spreading false orders, and gestured for her to continue.

She imitated Fang Yuan, putting her little hands behind her back and deliberately puffing out her cheeks to look old-fashioned: "First of all—"

"Wait!" Lu Feng couldn't help but speak up, "What exactly are we supposed to do, listen to a frog's orders?"

quack!

What? You're not convinced?

Fang Yuan suddenly turned his head, and a death stare shot straight at him.

When I'm speaking, it's not your place to interrupt!

Lu Feng felt a chill run down his spine from that glare and instinctively shrank back.

He, who had never been afraid of Zhao Wu, now felt that the frog's eyes were more terrifying than those of the armored soldiers.

It's just a frog...

Can……

Lu Feng shrank back, which only made Nan Nan even more arrogant!

Nan Nan immediately put her hands on her hips, feigning superiority: "Second Brother! Little Frog said if you interrupt again, it will make you catch another hundred bugs!"

Actually, I didn't say that.

However, Fang Yuan did not correct him; instead, he glared at Lu Feng.

Since they shared the same idea, he was very unhappy that Lu Feng interrupted.

"I—" Lu Feng was about to retort, but when he met Fang Yuan's deep green eyes, he swallowed the rest of his sentence.

Quack, keep going.

Fang Yuan turned back with satisfaction, nodded to Nan Nan, and gestured for her to continue.

Nan Nan cleared her throat, trying to keep a straight face, but her excitement still overflowed from her eyes and brows: "First of all! Little Frog said it wants—" She paused, then suddenly stopped, looking down at Fang Yuan, "Little Frog, what did you want again?"

quack!

Fang Yuan rolled his eyes and patted the table with his paw.

I want martial arts skills! I want the Blood Jade! Didn't I just draw them for you?

Nan Nan was still a little confused...

Fang Yuan, dissatisfied, made two more gestures, as if swinging a sword!

"Oh, right, right!" Nan Nan suddenly realized, slamming her fist into her palm. "Little Frog said he wants martial arts manuals! The more powerful the better! Internal energy cultivation methods, fist and foot techniques, swords and spears, everything!"

She became more and more excited as she spoke, and started gesturing wildly: "Especially those sounds like the thunderous roar of tigers and leopards!"

Lu Yong and Lu Feng exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

A frog... wants martial arts skills?

Did they eat mushrooms?

It's already quite remarkable that a frog can understand human speech, but now they're asking them to help a frog collect martial arts manuals?

"Wait..." Lu Yong couldn't help but speak up, "It wants martial arts manuals? How can a frog learn them..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fang Yuan glared at him with a death stare.

Quack?

What's wrong with frogs? Can't frogs pursue martial arts?

You worthless human, you're not even as good as a frog!

This frog only watched "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound" once! And mastered it in just one viewing!

Do you even know what talent and hard work are?!

This time, Lu Feng learned his lesson. He only opened his mouth but didn't dare to make a sound. He just looked at Lu Yong with a hint of disdain.

Hey bro, I've already been interrupted twice for trying to speak...

Haven't you realized it yet?

Lu Yong hesitated for a moment under Fang Yuan's deathly glare, but in the end he chickened out and didn't continue to interrupt.

Fang Yuan was very satisfied!

See, isn't that very obedient?

He patted Nan Nan with satisfaction, signaling her to continue.

Nan Nan, hands on her hips, mimicked Fang Yuan's usual head-tilting posture with great seriousness: "Big brother, you're so stupid! If Little Frog didn't know martial arts, how could he have saved Second Brother?"

Lu Yong wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he saw Fang Yuan's deep green eyes again and swallowed his words back.

Oh well, I won't argue with the frog.

Lu Yong pursed his lips.

"Secondly!" Nan Nan's voice rose another notch, "Little Frog also wants red jade! You know, that kind... that bright red, shiny stone with something flowing inside!"

She tried hard to recall the pattern Fang Yuan had drawn on the ground, gesturing in the air with her little hands: "It was about this big... no, this big... anyway, it was a really pretty ruby! The more the better!"

Even Lu Feng couldn't hold back anymore: "Red Jade? What do we need that for? We're going to spend a lot of money on something else, and if we buy so much Red Jade, we won't even have enough to eat..."

Quack!!

Fang Yuan slammed his hand on the table!

You're almost going hungry, aren't you?

That's because you two good-for-nothings are incompetent! If I had gotten the Blood Jade earlier, filled with Daoist energy, I would have maxed out my stats long ago. Then, I could have slapped any armored warrior or strange being one slap away! Would your Lu family have fallen to this state?

quack!

Do you even know what it means to sharpen your axe before chopping wood?

"Little Frog said..." Nan Nan carefully translated, looking at Fang Yuan's expression, "You two grown men can't even meet the needs of a frog, and you still have the nerve to call yourselves members of the Lu family?"

Actually, Fang Yuan didn't say that.

But the meaning is roughly the same.

Fang Yuan nodded, confirming Nan Nan's words.

Lu Feng immediately shut up.

"I...we didn't mean that..." Lu Yong whispered in defense.

"What does that mean?" Nan Nan was getting more and more into character. She snorted and glared at her two brothers. "Little Frog said it won't force you. If you feel it's difficult, it can go find it itself—anyway, with its abilities, sneaking out to find a rock isn't a hard task for it."

Quack! That's right!

Fang Yuan gave Nan Nan an approving look.

This little girl is really getting more and more savvy.

"Besides, what Little Frog wants isn't ruby, but the blood jade the butler showed me last time... um... I don't know if you've seen it before, but it's a very special kind of red stone! It's not real ruby!"

Nan Nan added a couple more sentences, then looked at her two older brothers.

Meanwhile, Lu's mother was completely stunned.

A frog is perched on Nan Nan's head, actually directing her two children to do things for it?

A frog!?!

This… Lu's mother felt dizzy and couldn't help but lean back in her chair, holding her forehead, squinting, and saying something.

Could it be that they really ate mushrooms? Or did someone poison them?

How could you listen to a frog?

Is this...is this reasonable?

……

Fang Yuan continued to stare at Lu Yong and Lu Feng.

To be honest, he was quite curious whether the two brothers should follow his advice.

"No, no, no!" Lu Yong hurriedly waved his hands, sweat beading on his forehead. "How can we let our benefactor go out and look for it himself? What kind of people will the Lu family be if word gets out?"

He took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision: "Okay, tomorrow I'll go to the pawnshops and antique shops in town to inquire. Although we're short on cash right now, but... but if we buy on credit and get an IOU, we should still be able to get a dollar or two back."

Lu Feng wasn't about to be outdone: "I'll go to the martial arts school! They have a lot of martial arts manuals there, I... I'll go buy them...! No, I'll go and become their apprentice! I'll beg them to teach me, and then I'll come back and teach Little Frog!"

croak.

Fang Yuan finally nodded in satisfaction.

That's more like it.

Why didn't you get it right earlier? Why did I have to get so angry?

quack!

Fang Yuan patted Nan Nan's hand again, signaling her to continue relaying the message.

He jumped onto the table, picked up a chopstick and gestured at the bowl a couple of times, then snorted and jumped back onto Nan Nan's head.

Having received the order, Nan Nan puffed out her little chest even more: "Little Frog said we need to hurry! The sooner the better! He doesn't have that much time to wait for you to dawdle! In exchange, he's willing to protect us!"

Yes, yes, yes!

Fang Yuan nodded again, but felt that this was not quite fair, so he gestured a couple more times and made a gesture of rubbing his hands together and counting money.

Nan Nan's eyes lit up immediately; she understood: "He said he's still willing to give our family money!"

Fang Yuan patted Nan Nan's head approvingly. This new brain is so bright! It understood what I meant so quickly!

From now on, I'll appoint Nan Nan as my archangel!

Lu Yong and Lu Feng, who were standing to the side, were immediately stunned.

Protect them? And give them money?

Is this real?

A frog?

These words were so ridiculous they made my mouth twitch. A frog saying it would protect the Lu family?

Who would believe that if I told them? But this frog actually did blind a martial arts master with internal energy...

only……

Make money?

Even a frog knows how to make money!?

How is that possible?!

In the end, it's just a frog, isn't it?

Lu Feng was still somewhat incredulous, while Lu Yong had a complicated expression.

Lu Yong looked at Fang Yuan, who was squatting on Nan Nan's head with an imposing air, and then at his own hands, which couldn't even hold chopsticks properly. In the end, he sighed.

Regardless, let's at least believe in the frog that saved his younger siblings!

Lu Yong's expression turned serious, and he cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "In that case, I will try to find some blood jade tomorrow."

His gesture of cupping his hands surprised Fang Yuan.

Why is it bowing to me?

but……

Fang Yuan tilted his head, his large eyes narrowing into slits.

This feeling seems pretty good?

Seeing his brother's reaction, Lu Feng gritted his teeth and prepared to make a promise for himself at a certain time...

"Knock knock knock~"

But then, a knocking sound rang out...
