Chapter 755 - Shackles (1/2)

Above the air of the Truth Department Headquarters.

Vigilante A was standing mid-air and looking down.

Fang Ning can’t help but sigh. “So this is the truth… It looks like we have wrongly blamed Ren Ruofeng. This old man is a really good man.”

“Um, you did mention that there might be more than meets the eye, you were right. It’s just that this guy is too much of a coward, he does not know how powerful I really am… It’s all just a waste of effort,” Sir System said resentfully.

“You should be more humble. Oldman Ren is right, so what if you win this time? They can still send stronger people. They can afford to lose many times but we only need to lose one time and we will have lost everything. Once the Pharos of the East is gone, Earth would not be able to continue on the path of righteousness and would turn into a jungle society. Ren Ruofeng is an intelligent man, he won’t make such a mistake,” Fang Ning shook his head.

“Your reasoning is sound. It looks like I am still not strong enough…” Sir System said gloomily.

“Yes, so you should continue cultivating. That woman won’t be up to anything major temporarily.

“After all, she is different from those devils intent on destroying the world. Her methods are much more subtle. If I’m not wrong, she must have something to do with the change in Earth’s Heavenly Axiom. Otherwise, she won’t be able to control all the Vitality on Earth,” Fang Ning deduced.

“I’m depressed. Let’s forget about it. I’ll just train in isolation and kill a few monsters,” Sir System finally let this matter go.

Fang Ning was relieved. He was already afraid of Sir System doing things bluntly. Main characters in novels might be okay to do so, but not them, especially since they would not have the opportunity to start over.

He recalled Black Dog and ordered him to stop the search for the woman. Ever since being aware of Ren Ruofeng’s plans, he had no intention of going head to head with her.

Ren Ruofeng was right. There was still a long way to go and they should wait for Sir System to achieve greater heights…

Black Dog Brett was gloomy. His head was down as if he had been no help at all.

“Don’t beat yourself up, it’s not your fault. Your ability is, after all, quite a distance from the level of those immortals. You should return to Morality City to cultivate and achieve your abilities, then you won’t be as gloomy as today in the future,” Fang Ning consoled.

“I understand, Master,” Brett replied listlessly.

He then hopped onto the nearest Golden Train and returned to Morality City.

The subject of the decreasing Vitality has been momentarily put on hold. Fang Ning continued the research on creating life in the River of Blood while Sir System also continued with his cultivation. It seemed peaceful again.

However, the Vitality Flow continued moving. This matter that affected the whole world was not about to disappear just because Fang Ning did not care about it.

After half a month, signs of Vitality disappearing became much more obvious. There were many locations where detecting the existence of Vitality was impossible. If one did not cultivate the Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique, they would not be able to use any of their abilities…

This strange phenomenon finally caught the media’s attention.

Everything was calm within China but the media outside the realm which included the print media and online media were starting to publish news on the situation.

“Disappearing Vitality? Is this end of a mysterious era?”

“Is this a natural phenomenon or a man-made conspiracy? Let’s take a closer look at the mystery.”

“We demand the truth!”

There were various demonstrations on the streets that went on continuously. Many who had benefitted from cultivation were unable to accept the fact that Vitality was suddenly disappearing. They were unable to face the situation both psychologically and physically.

The start of the Vitality era had brought on many dangers but it had also brought a lot of perks. The increase of strength within individuals had allowed them to gain great wealth and incomparable status within society.
