Chapter 284 - I... Dont... Accept... (1/2)
‘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.
