Chapter 520: Never Forgive

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Ning understood the truth and realized how cunning and vicious this Old Master was.

However, the others did not think so. In their opinion, after the Old Master spoke those ruthless words, he had secretly fled after getting scared by the Hero. He looked extremely like those bullies who had been beaten down.

They really wanted to laugh their heads off.

The three young entrepreneurs looked at each other and felt extremely excited.

“As expected of the Dragon God Hero, he’s so reliable. I thought that hateful old robber was difficult to deal with, but that’s all he got after all.” Liu Gang said, traumatized.

“Yeah, if the Dragon God Hero weren’t here, how would justice be delivered so quickly?” Li Tao sighed.

“Right? Although the Truth Department aren’t unreliable, since they’re so busy, I’m afraid that even if we report this little matter to them, it might be months before they do something about it. Worst case scenario, we might not even get a response…” Wang Jun shook his head.

“This Old Master really was just all bark. It’s a shame that thousand-year-old jade of mine will fall into Vigilante A’s hands later. I’ll have to take out a sum of money to redeem myself as well!” The middle-aged man with the surname Liu muttered to himself, extremely vexed.

“If I knew earlier, I’d have kept a lower profile. Thank goodness I haven’t killed anyone…” He then rejoiced. At least he had the chance to start over.

Elite people like them were already perfectly clear on Vigilante A’s behavior patterns.

He would kill killers, but only punish people who injure and steal.

Currently, this Old Master would definitely be killed!

That was because he wholeheartedly wanted to kill Vigilante A. Whether or not he succeeded was another matter, because he had already committed murder before.

Cut off by Vigilante A, Ling Yunzi’s expression cooled. He quickly calmed down and transformed into a cloud of mist again.

This time, he did not run again.

The cloud of mist rapidly changed and transformed into countless monsters that charged towards Vigilante A!

At this moment, Vigilante A suddenly moved. The four dragons disappeared and reappeared again, occupying four positions.

Immediately after, a yellow cloth was tossed out from his hand.

The Four Symbols Sealing Formation!

True Dragon Suppression!

Four Symbols Sealing!

Bouts of dragon-shaped vital energy and the rapidly enlarging yellow cloth simultaneously formed a sealed space.

Immediately, the countless monsters formed by the cloud of mist were firmly trapped inside the sealed space.

‘Looks like it’s settled.’ Seeing this scene from the System Space, Fang Ning was instantly reassured.

However, at this time in the office, Anderson, who was in charge of explaining, was frowning.

“This Old Master should be better than this. Not good, he’s up to something again!” Anderson hurriedly warned.

“What’s going on?” Fang Ning quickly questioned.

“This Old Master really is cunning. The one who came was just a stand-in made up of cloud and mist! No wonder he’s only been using attacks of that kind.”

“Oh? The Devil Lord Zhi Nan also used a double when descending, and this old man is using a stand-in in battle. Are those Upper Realm powerhouses all these cautious?”

Anderson explained, “Your Excellency is wise. After cultivating to a state, Upper Realm powerhouses will always use doubles, incarnations, or stand-ins to fight for them as long as their minds are ordinary and they have the capability to refine them. After all, there are countless people who defy the natural order, and even more who launch kamikaze attacks and bring down their enemy in mutual destruction. There are many variables in battle, so these powerhouses who cultivated to high states will definitely not be willing to be defeated in such situations.”

“That makes sense. As expected, those willing to play the role of a boss that gives large amounts of experience only exist in novels and films…” Although Fang Ning felt downhearted, he had to admit that since they had the ability to refine a body double to fight for them, why would they have to act personally?

The people of Earth also thought highly of UAV battles, which allowed them to attack beyond their own visible range and avoid direct combat with the enemy.

That was because once they entered direct combat, they would not be able to avoid injuries.

There was no reason for the people of the Upper Realm, how experienced battle more frequently, to not understand all of these.

Since they placed greatly respected strength and lived by survival of the fittest, where the strong occupied everything, then they would certainly be completely unscrupulous in order to maintain their position and advantage.

To avoid direct combat between their opponents and themselves was of utmost importance.

Apart from the few cultivators who have to personally take part to comprehend battle, the others would naturally do their utmost to avoid direct battle and use their tools to do it in their place.

After all, battles themselves were too dangerous. You could win 99 times, but as long as you lost the last battle, all the victories beforehand would become meaningless.

While the two discussed, Vigilante A already started cleaning up. The monsters transformed from the cloud of mist had vanished into thin air.

Sir System’s gloomy words also proved this point.

“Damn it, he’s not as good as the Devil Lord Zhi Nan after all. That fella had been beaten to the ground by me and even had ten billion experience points and a large number of merit points. This guy over here is just a cloud of vapor. Exterminating him is the same as pouring away a basin of water.”

“Alright, you don’t have to say it. I already saw the System Notification.” Fang Ning soothed the restless System.

System Notification: [The System exterminated Ling Yunzi’s mist double.]

[The System obtained small amounts of Experience Points.]

[The System obtained a massive amount of Heroic Fame.]

[The System’s Fame on a certain foreign map has increased.]

“Mr. Rich Boss, help me find where that old coot hid. Why do all those fat and juicy Descended Ones from the Upper World keep slipping from my hands? Why can’t they just let me stab them cleanly…” The System chattered.

“Heh, the weak ones you farmed before had to act personally when committing evil, but the opponents now are more advanced. I think probably all Inland-sea Level and above masters have the ability to refine body-doubles. With your reputation and skill, it’s impossible for them to rashly come personally to challenge your true fighting strength as a study god.” Fang Ning earnestly said.

“Oh, then it’s your turn to think of a way. Zhi Nan and Ling Yunzi are so slippery that my sword can’t behead them no matter how sharp it is.” The System immediately dumped the responsibility to Fang Ning.

Fang Ning considered and did not refuse. He said firmly, “Alright, I’ll definitely think of a way to deal with a boss that’s good at using body-doubles and stand-ins like him.”

“Hm, why are you so proactive this time, Rich-man Host?” Although the System was pleased, it was also somewhat suspicious.

This negative effect was the result of shrugging off responsibility too many times. One would get be doubtful even if you wanted to be diligent.

Fang Ning could only reluctantly admit, “You need to pull the roots when weeding. If the snake isn’t killed, I’ll constantly be worried that something will hit me from behind. I won’t be able to play my games in peace…”

“Well, that puts me at ease. Since you’ve already said so, I believe you’ll be able to find their real bodies for me to exterminate as well.”

“Don’t overestimate me too much. I can’t do anything about Zhi Nan now, since he’s still in the Upper Realm, hesitating to descend. However, this Ling Yunzi’s inside information can’t be comparable to the Devil Lord’s, so he probably descended using his real body. I suspect he’s just hiding somewhere. There are still ways to deal with him.” Fang Ning analyzed.

“Alright, alright. I believe you can do it. You don’t have to tell me anything. Go find Anderson.” Since I don’t understand any of these, you just have to tell me where the enemy is.” The System shirked.

“Wow, you only ask where your enemy is, not how powerful he is. Sir System really is domineering.” Fang Ning gave some rare praise.

“Really? I’ve always been like this. You don’t have to give me additional praise.” The System gloated.

At this time, Vigilante A started to handle the follow-up.

“Liu Shaokun, you collude with ruffians to push around innocents. Do you know your crime?!”

“I know, I know. This is my apology. Please be understanding, my three brothers. That Old Master and I walk different paths. From the beginning, I’ve never said I wanted your lives. However, that old man doesn’t place importance in lives and is cold-hearted and callous. He’s a foreigner completely lacking in humanity. I’ve really regretted my decision. I should never have tangled with someone like him. Please, forgive me.” The middle-aged man with the surname Liu already took out a gold card and handed it over to the three young entrepreneurs with both hands while lowering his head.

He was very crafty. He knew that as long as he took on the role of a victim, the punishment he received would be lessened by more than half.

“This, should we forgive him?” Liu Gang hesitated.

“This bastard sicced two bodyguards on us just now. We need to repay the favor.” His two companions said indignantly.

Youngsters were not that easy to calm if they were bullied.

“Okay, okay, as long as it’ll help you vent your anger, please hit me to your heart’s content. I won’t strike back.” The middle-aged man with the surname Liu immediately followed-up.

Seeing this, the two Western-suited bodyguards quickly said, “Sorry, brothers. We were just following his orders, but we were holding back. If you want to hit us to vent your anger, then we don’t have anything to say either.”

When the three young entrepreneurs heard this, they looked at each other and suddenly burst into smiles.

“Alright, everyone makes mistakes, so we should forgive them when possible. We won’t hit you back, but if you bully the innocent like this again in the future, we believe that it’ll be the Hero’s severe punishment that awaits you.” Liu Gang said righteously.

“Yes, yes, thank you…” The moment he finished speaking, the middle-aged man with the surname Liu was instantly sent flying by a slap on his face, and lost consciousness ten meters away.

Accompanying him were also two bodyguards.

“Hm, the victims might have forgiven you, but I never forgive any evildoers…” Vigilante A said lightly.

The three young entrepreneurs were deeply moved when they saw this. This was a true Hero, not pedantic at all, unlike people like them who forgot the other party’s evil deeds with just a few flowery words. Little did they know, abandoning the punishment of evildoers would not make them feel gratitude, but only allow them to make a comeback.
