Chapter 709 - Recovered (1/2)

In the Land of Sanguinity.

On the side of the red river, Vigilante A led the procession along the river.

They had been walking for three hours, passing through three dense forests and two hills, all along the direction of the current.

However, they had not encountered any danger. However, at almost every section of the river, under the surface of the water would be dark shadows swimming back and forth. From time to time, waves would break out, showing that there was fierce fighting and struggles happening underwater.

“Sir, it seems that there’s no trouble on land…” Qiao Zijiang questioned cautiously.

Although she had lost part of her memories, she did not become stupid.

“Well, that’s what it looks like. The dangers on land come from yourself.” Vigilante A nodded.

Then, he pointed to the black-robed middle-aged man at the end of their procession.

The four surviving members of the Truth Department all nodded secretly. That black-robed man’s aura was obviously not upright, yet he had the audacity to follow behind them. It was definitely not the action of a man of honor.

At least, those who paid attention would not stay if they knew that they were unwelcome.

Furthermore, there was also a video to prove it, and the various sapient tools and treasures in the Treasure Guard had spoken as well. They had long regarded that black-robed man as an outsider.

It was only the amnesiac young lady that helped to speak nice words on behalf of the black-robed man. Otherwise, they would not tolerate him following them.

Black Robe naturally saw all the looks of despise he was receiving, but he took them in stride.

In order to complete his master’s task, he would be willing to throw away his life. What was losing a bit of face in comparison? Since ancient times, people who achieved great things never had misgivings about their face, otherwise, they would be killed at critical moments.

In the System Space.

“Mr. Rich Boss, what now?” Sir System asked gloomily.

They had walked for three hours and countered not a single monster, so how could the System not be gloomy? There was also a guy with ulterior motives following after them, adding fuel to the fire.

“Mr. Rich Boss? Are you calling me, Lord Tong?” Fang Ning, who was learning the forging skill in the blacksmith’s forge, asked doubtfully.

“Uh, yeah. That was how you were addressed before” Sir System repeatedly observed and confirmed that Fang Ning really lost his memory. Otherwise, how would he dare to do such a job?

“Oh, it seems that I used to be a rich man, but I vaguely feel that I’ve been living a poor life… What was your problem earlier? Why do you mean ‘what now’? I don’t understand at all.” Fang Ning said curiously.

“How troublesome. It’ll be really tiring to explain. I should just help you regain your memory…” Sir System said bitterly.

“Is that so? I feel that it’s quite nice now. My mind seems to be much cleaner. I don’t have to think about anything after I wake up.” Fang Ning pounded a piece of refined iron and sighed.

“Forget it, you stupid servant Fang Ning. Just work here all your life as a laborer. I’ll ask someone else.” Sir System huffed away.

…

After a while, Vigilante A suddenly stopped.

“Everyone, we’re splitting up.” He said to the group of five being surrounded by treasures.

“Huh, Mr. Vigilante, why?” Qiao Anping questioned. He already knew from the video that he was the leader of this group, as well as the uncle of those two.

“Well, I’ve always taken upon myself to wipe out the turbidity of the world. There are much fighting and killing in this boundary. The demons and devils are hiding, so I will go to them. Now it seems there are no demons and devils on land, but they’re all hiding in the water, so I will take a look.” Vigilante A lightly said.

“Oh, you’re right. In that case, do as you please.” Qiao Anping did not have Black Robe’s face. Since he had been protected by Vigilante A for 3 hours, he could not be pinned under his wings like a child.

“Hm, I’ll leave half of the treasures here for your safety. The other half will advance with me. You all just stay here and don’t move. I’ll wipe out some demons and come back at regular intervals.” Vigilante A instructed.

“That would be good. Thank you for your concern.” Qiao Anping cupped his hands.

Thus, the several people set up camp again.

Black Robe looked at this scene coldly. This time, he would not follow Vigilante A. Where that person went would definitely be dangerous.

If he followed again, that would just be him courting death…
