Chapter 509: Add a Little Something

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The appearance of Lunaette meant that the crisis had been averted. A few days after that, Vigilante A was circling in the air above a long line of cars.

The line of cars went from the west to the east, snaking and winding along the road.

The System occasionally dipped down to a car to grab a thief or a street bully out of their cars, which showed the low efficiency of the act.

Car lines like this were everywhere. As the lunar crisis passes, countless people had begun their journey from their temporary settlements in the west back to their homes.

After all, those were temporary settlements with minimal amenities. There were no air conditioners, heaters, or food delivery services. After the disaster had been announced to have passed, they would want to return to their home sweet home.

The System woke Fang Ning who was busy cultivating and not at all sleeping.

“What is it, do you know how hard it is for me to fall asleep, uh, to get into the perfect mental state for cultivation?” Fang Ning yawned as he got up. In his guilt, he could not even make a fuss about being woken up.

“Sorry for disrupting your beauty sleep. It must have been such a struggle this time—you’ve contemplated about it for about three whole hours…” The System said sharply.

“Stop controlling me… spill it, what’s up?” Fang Ning changed the subject promptly.

“Oh, Ren Ruofeng called to ask if we could move some stuff to Lunaette for them…”

“What are those things, did he tell you?”

“Some old stone cups, stone bowls, stone benches, stone beds, things like that. It’s a huge amount, I wonder what they’re trying to achieve?” The System wondered aloud.

Fang Ning immediately understood and said, “That old man is really going to ignore his opponents’ intelligence? Can this even work?”

“I don’t understand, explain?” asked the System curiously.

“Just search the internet for some history.” Fang Ning was lazy to explain.

“Oh, I understand now. What a strategist, that old man. But will other people believe it?”

“That’s right, no one will believe it, but so what? That’s the confidence a powerhouse can have.” Fang Ning ruminated for a while and could only find one explanation.

“So should we help him out? The offer he gave is pretty good, with a decent amount of vitality crops and asset share compensations. Looks like he’s pretty intent on this to happen,” said the System.

“Of course we help him out. This is not an evil deed, just being a mover,” said Fang Ning confidently.

“Hey, will my heroic points drop?” The System was still concerned.

“No, it won’t. Your stupid principles wouldn’t be so strict. You’ll be fine as long as you don’t kill, commit arson, sexual misconduct, or anything along the lines,” comforted Fang Ning.

He was not a saint or a hero, and he kept his roots in his heart. With such an attractive offer, why would he not help his own kind?

“Oh, you know me so well. Alright, I’ll be a mover for once,” exclaimed the System excitedly.

“Wait, what exactly have Ren Ruofeng given me?” Fang Ning opened his Wechat.

All the conversation with Ren Ruofeng had already been deleted…

“Dammit, it must be you who did this.” Fang Ning felt cheated.

“What are you talking about? It must be your own system that was problematic, don’t try to blame it on me.” The System acted as if it was oblivious.

“That’s right, my system, like you, is problematic. You’ve learned to lie? I have to inspect you carefully.” Fang Ning persisted.

“Once again, you’re accusing me wrongly. I’ve always been an honest system, everything I’ve said is from my heart. I’m not you, I don’t even do half-truths,” said The System indignantly.

“Stop dilly-dallying, you get two parts, I get eight. I wouldn’t agree if you shortchange me even a little bit.” Fang Ning gave it an ultimatum.

“Alright, you get eight. You don’t know how much it is in total anyway,” said the System callously.

“…” Fang Ning was speechless.

After a long time, he said, “Remember the yellow barrier on Lunaette’s surface when we wanted to land? I wonder if it’s dissipated yet, you have to keep an eye on it.”

“Don’t worry, it’s just a lousy light barrier put up by an idiot Heavenly Axiom. If there are no benefits to break it, I won’t even touch it, but I can easily break through it if I was given enough benefits,” said the System nonchalantly.

“No wonder Axiom Daddy never talks to you…” Fang Ning mused, “it probably knew that you’re just something that has no respect for it at all…”

“You’re defaming me again. How many times have I told you, I’m an honest system…”

…

In the adviser’s office of the Truth Department.

Ren Ruofeng stood in front of his window and watched as Vigilante A shoot up into the sky. Noticing the mountainous bear who stood in between the Heavens and the earth, he nodded.

‘The moon had always been the Chinese’s…

‘After singing praises to you for thousands of years and writing beautiful poems about you, you could maybe remunerate us or something, moonsie…’

He waved his paper fan and was silently pleased.

In the dead of winter, he did not feel the cold. It was not because of his cultivation base, but the heater made it really warm…

“Heh, many people will look really colorful (TN: Chinese slang for turning red our of fury), but I bet there will be many people who will look for excuses. No one would be able to truly have control of this situation.”

“Your tactic is so underestimating their intelligence. Aren’t you worried that they will break our doors down in fury, expose us, and slander our names?” Hong Yunjiao stormed into the room and accused with her brows furrowed.

“Hmph, what are you afraid of? Underhanded actions that other people can take, why can’t we do the same? What is honor in the face of the acquisition of the landmass? We may have thrown away our generation’s honor, but in exchange, we will have secured a place for our descendants,” said Ren Ruofeng with a hint of disdain.

“Besides, if those operations went well, we could still keep this landmass without worrying that our descendants will lose it,” he mused.

“What other operations do we need? Your relationship with the Venerable Dragon God was so good, you can just buy some long-living pills or something, right?” asked Hong Yunjiao, confused.

“Can you not put it so bluntly? Have more nuances, even a master chef would not be able to cook rice if there were none for him to use. As strong as the Venerable One is, he needs the herbs and ores that we provide before he could create pills.” Ren Ruofeng said after being speechless for a while.

“If that’s the case, count me in, as usual, on my tab.”

“As usual? What usual? We only deal in cash. I myself am still owing quite a bit to the Venerable One, I’m still trying to see if I can repay with brainpower.”

Soon, the adviser’s office was filled with the aura of penny pinchers…

…

The next day, on Lunaette, where sharp, uneven stones and cutting sands lined the surface.

A human silhouette was keeping itself busy by moving back and forth.

“Put a little over here… This plains looked like it could have water in the past, we can bury some of it.” Fang Ning advised.

The silhouette pointed at the ground, where a deep rift promptly appeared, before a table, a bench, a chair, and a bed were buried.

An intricate stone tablet inscribed with complicated ancient texts was placed in the rift.

After completed all these, the silhouette pointed at the ground again. Crushed boulders and rocks covered the rift and slowly merged and spliced together as if they were never dug out.

“Mm, it is done here. Let’s go somewhere else to have a look,” said Fang Ning, pleased with himself.

Vigilante A rode his sword and glided away.

Long after he had left, a shadow slowly rose from the ground before walking to the burial site.

The shadow pointed and the rift reappeared.

“This… is Ancient Chinese Xia Dynasty’s text?” said the shadow as he read in puzzlement the words on the stone table.

“Hehe, that’s funny. Humans are such funny creatures. They could perform insulting acts such as this without blinking an eye. If that’s the case, let me add a little something for you…” The shadow laughed coldly.
