Chapter 284

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘Our enemy this time is the Will of a Demonic Realm?’

Fang Ning was taken aback for a while and decided to listen to his heart for once. He could not let the System continuously inch closer to the metaphorical fire.

He was lazy, timid, and never liked to push his own limit in battles.

That would mean that he had gone into a dangerous territory and needed Heaven’s Path to save the day…

Therefore, he had always let the System to prepare thoroughly before clashing with their enemies. It was so that he did not have to worry about the fight and to enjoy watching…

So he cleaned himself a little and said, “Sir, our enemy this time is unheard of. We don’t have enough information, so it’s tricky. We should work smart.”

The System agreed, “Billionaire Host, you’re wise. We’ll come again another day.”

“Mm, I know you want to kill the big boss, but we can’t rush it…” Habitually, Fang Ning wanted to continue convincing the problematic child, but he snapped back into reality. “Mm? You’re agreeing with me?”

The System said incredulously, “Rich boy, did you only get two points in your language test? Did you not understand me? Alright, I shall say that to you in another way. ‘Billionaire Host, you are right, we should run away now.’ ”

Fang Ning immediately understood. ‘That’s right, who said that Sir System is a hothead?

‘Sir System had never fought an unwinnable battle. Its condition to farm monsters carelessly was that those monsters are weak enough for it to farm…

‘This idiot has said before, it prioritizes survival.

‘No wonder it wouldn’t take over those talented hotheads favored by Heaven’s Path, and instead, it chose to take over an overgrown shut-in like me. It must be because my self-preservation tendencies attracted it.’

Having thought about that, Fang Ning was proud. ‘I’m still pretty advantageous, aren’t I?’

He chuckled loudly.

The System sniped at him, “You’re excited as soon as I mentioned fleeing, you’re really a bona fide coward, but I like you like that. When I was born, I was so afraid of being bound with a host who’s valiant beyond reason and charges into unwinnable battles, like the Lei Tian just now. I would rather die before being bound to him.”

Fang Ning thought, ‘As expected. This thing would speak its true intention without much prodding at all.’

He retorted stubbornly, “You’re accusing me wrongly again. I didn’t say we should just run away. I said we should look for a way.”

The System said, “I know, you want to find a way to run away but not disgracefully.”

Fang Ning replied indignantly, “Is it wrong to want to save my honor? Now isn’t then, Vigilante A is worth billions per appearance. If we lose face here, our appearance fee would drop sharply.”

The System said, “Oh, Billionaire Host, you’re a genius. I actually wanted to just wave goodbye and scram. How do you propose to run away honorably, Bossman Billionaire?”

Fang Ning replied helplessly, “I have an immature and bold thought to defeat this Demonic Realm’s Heaven Path. This way, Vigilante A wouldn’t lose face or run away.”

At that moment, Bodhisattva Spirit King, Long Fan, and Insect Mother watched as Vigilante A sank into his signature spacey mode, and no one disturbed him.

The situation at hand was really difficult.

It seemed to be an easy fight, but this baffling Will of Demonic Realm appeared suddenly, obviously siding the demon. It was not unexpected though. After all, it was the land filled with Demonic Energy. It did make things a lot more complicated.

To Insect Mother, Bodhisattva was powerful, but if Vigilante A claimed to be the second in combat on Earth, no one would claim to be the first.

Then again, their enemy this round was a Demonic Realm’s Will. Even though it was just a small dimension, it was hard to fight against mysterious beings like that no matter how strong Vigilante A was.

In all likelihood, everyone would resort to running away after this pause. They could only miss out on this great opportunity, which could be called unfortunate.

Bodhisattva Spirit King was silent as well. To him, this enemy was pretty tricky.

If they enter the portal, they would be fighting on the enemy’s battleground, which the enemy can control.

It would be relatively common if a sentient Heaven’s Path had wanted turn its battleground into the film set of Final Destination.

Not long after, Vigilante A finally moved.

Fang Ning said pretentiously, “Bodhisattva, this Demonic Realm’s Will looks difficult to handle, but it was nothing. I have already found its weak spot, but I need a little setup. Everyone, please be patient, I shall be back in a bit.”

Bodhisattva Spirit King heard it and got a shock.

A tiny dimension like this could be destroyed in no time in his peak in the Upper Realm. He needed only to flex his fingers to blast the realm into smithereens along with its Will.

However, he could not do the same now. He had thought of a way that only the true dragon could do.

He nodded. “Brother Dragon, I thank you for your sacrifice. To be honest, I want to suppress this Demonic Realm and turn it into a living space of the Spiritual Insects. It was so that I can fulfill the promise I made to the Heaven’s Path of this world and grant do-gooders prosperity and longevity. If my promise was fulfilled, I would be able to reclaim my powers in this Realm. I shall reward you immensely in the future.”

Bodhisattva Spirit King was not one who tricks people with empty promise. He would always fulfill them.

Regarding that, Fang Ning was not worried. If he had promised a huge reward, he would not skimp out. This can be seen in the past gifts he had given out.

The System asked, “Rich man, stop being cryptic. Tell me, how can we defeat this Arcane Realm’s Will?”

Fang Ning wanted to flaunt a little but decided against it. It was not the time to do so.

He said, “Don’t worry, let’s go back and get Ren Ruofeng. I will return to the Draconic Penitentiary before meeting someone.”

The System understood. “Oh, I get it. You’re going to let other people take the fall. This skill is so useful, I’ve mastered it…”

Fang Ning was speechless. “Master your ass. Don’t just paint a tiger after the model of a cat 1 . You’re just gonna make a mess that I have to clean up.”

…

In the System Space.

Draconic Penitentiary.

Fang Ning sat leisurely in Anderson’s office while snacking on the Dragon Clan’s secret medicinal pills—Vitality Pills and Soul Strengthening Pills mixed with sugar.

These are rare items that cost thousands of gold outside, but he could snack on it like it costs nothing.

‘It can’t be helped, my body was taken over by Sir System, this is the only benefit I get…’

Anderson was summoning people as he instructed in the Draconic Arcane Realm.

An old man’s spirit, who was working the excavator, had been working with an utmost focus.

A scary voice yelled out for him all of a sudden.

“Ma Dechun, Ma Dechun, pause for a while.”

Ma Dechun shuddered. In the internal selection, his gameplay was terrible, so he could only work as a builder.

Fortunately, he had learned to operate an excavator in vocational school, so he did not become a slave who had to build walls. He had heard about the creation of a fully-automated wall-building machine. None was imported into the Draconic Penitentiary, though.

‘Could it be that the project was almost done, and they wanted to get rid of me for my uselessness?’

Ma Dechun was anxious. He hovered in front of Anderson and dared not utter a sound.

“Follow me.”

Ma Dechun immediately fell to the ground, limp.

Anderson looked at him with confusion. “Sir Warden wants to see you, what are you so scared about?”

As he said that, he understood the situation. Shaking his head, he smiled. “There is plenty of work to do in the future. Don’t worry, your worth is far too underutilized.”

Ma Dechun was relieved. Anderson was cruel, but they had no need to lie to him about that.

In a place like this, it was actually a privilege to be able to work like a slave…

A brief moment later, he exited the prison officer’s office with pride on his face.

Due to his good performance and interview, he had been promised to be promoted to a foreman.

The current Ma Dechun was nothing like he was last year. No one could tell that he used to proclaim to be Grim Reaper and treated the whole human world as his fishing pond, toying with regular humans as he liked…

…

In the Demonic Realm.

Beneath layers of black sand was an underground stone palace. In its hall, Lei Tian was brandishing a brand new tiger-hilted broadsword as he looked down on an ugly demon who was sprawled on the ground.

It was a wolf-headed demon. Its wolf head added to its viciousness while its body was black. Its eyes were bloodshot as its life slowly slipped away from it.

“Hmph, if I knew you would be backfired by the Heaven’s Path here, I wouldn’t have gone through all that trouble to pit Vigilante A against you. But this is still fine. My power has been restored to the limit this world can take. I shall test Vigilante A later and see if he’s worthy of his name!”

At this point, Nie Renkuang, or War Demon Lei Tian, had not a hint of the previous weakened state.

His body was filled with a tyrannical Demonic Energy that fills the entire hall, spilling out. Within a short time, he had been powered up to a peak powerhouse of Lake-level.

This was already the upper limit of strength allowable outside of this Realm. The power it could grant even rivaled the capping limit of the outside world.

Just from that point, it was much stronger than the Land of Heritage.

Naturally, the Land of Heritage was also evolving, so it would soon allow its local creatures to achieve Lake-level on their own.

As he spoke, a dull thunderous sound boomed all around him.

It was as if the atmosphere of the Realm was agreeing with him.

The wolf-headed demon had not completely died.

It was cursing the land from where the sound came, “You bastard Heaven’s Path, how dare you worship foreign people! I am a local Wolf Demon, I found you first, and I spent so much time communicating with the Americans and helping them to train Demon Generals so that I can bring you a sizable sacrifice every year. That was why you could grow so quickly!

“But you turned against me, as soon as a demon from the Upper Realm arrived, you sided with him and rejected me from fusing with you, you shameless bastard!”

Thunder rumbled around it as if the atmosphere was enraged.

It ignored the thunder and raised its eyes to meet Lei Tian’s. “Thunder Demon, don’t be so smug, you’re not so powerful yourself! I didn’t lose to you, I lost to this shameless Heaven’s Path, this brazen world! If you fuse with it, you will end badly too!”

“Hahaha!” War Demon Lei Tian laughed even harder as he heard that. He pointed his broadsword at the Wolf Demon. “You fool, you’re completely wrong!”

The wolf-headed demon was stumped and asked, “What do you mean?”

It wanted to know even in death. At the same time, it had noticed the events that happened directly before, having found out a righteous hero was tagging alongside the demon.

It wanted to delay its demise and wait for an opportunity for reversal.

Lei Tian carried his tiger-hilted broadsword and said casually, “Hmph, I’ll let you local demon die in peace. As soon as I descended, I could sense this demonic Arcane Realm. It’s a Land of Heritage left to the Upper Realm demons like me! I don’t know how it appeared, but I know it definitely is not prepared for local demons like you!

“I heard there’s also a Land of Heritage in China that’s about the same size as this. That’s probably not prepared for the Chinese as well. However, they have a Vigilante A and could still occupy the land forcefully. You don’t have a fighter like him, so you can only die.

“Don’t be sad, though. Before long, the powerful demons of the Upper Realm would descend as well. That Arcane Realm was left for these demons, and the newly-born Heaven’s Path will side the demons as well. It doesn’t matter if it’s Vigilante A or the Truth Department, everyone will die in there! You local powerhouses are fated to be the stepping stones of the Upper Realm!”

At this point, Lei Tian stopped speaking and slashed with his broadsword.

The head of the Wolf Demon landed on the ground, eyes wide open. It uttered its final words.

“I… don’t… accept…”

Lei Tian smirked. ‘Hmph, that’s the Heaven’s Path. If you don’t accept it, you shall die!’
