Chapter 626: Killing Is Easy

After Black Robe finished speaking, he left the office without glancing back.

The others could only stare at him blankly.

He was a powerhouse with immense power; even if they did not know it before, after witnessing the stunt he had pulled to protect them from the bullets, the other three in the office knew now.

Saki Yamanashi, on the other hand, gripped her phone tightly as she waited for Black Robe to return with expectation in her eyes.

An unknown amount of time passed before Black Robe returned, a gloomy expression on his face.

“Hmph, that fellow that doesn’t understand how things work around here will not require our attention anymore. He won’t act again once he misses the first time.”

Everyone else breathed sighs of relief; however, whether or not the relief was genuine, no one knew.

The agent drew a cross in mid-air before praying, “May the omnipotent God shine a light on this world once more.”

Black Robe disdained the praying; none of the gods that the people of Earth believed in actually existed, and even if they actually existed, they were definitely being passed off by people of the Upper Realm.

He knew of the foolishness of the people of Earth, but he was too lazy to pick at this point.

Saki Yamanashi asked in disappointment, “Uncle Black Robe, did Master not say anything about where the devil was hiding?”

“Master didn’t say anything about his hiding place,” said Black Robe calmly.

Did he not know that the other party was divulging secret information to someone?

Before this, he still wondered why his Master did not care much about it; however, he has not been caring about that much recently.

Vigilante A wanted to bring his Master’s disciples back onto the right path, so why would his Master not utilize this opportunity to pull Vigilante A onto the Path of Demons?

If a devil lord wanted to corrupt a powerhouse, they would need immeasurable patience. A few hundred years was nothing, it would take at least tens of thousands of years.

Saki Yamanashi instantly felt immense disappointment, and bowed her head to type on her phone.

“However, Master did say that the devil’s true body was that of a rainbow snake, and it lurked in the hearts of humans…” continued Black Robe.

“Uncle, could you finish everything in a single go next time?” complained Saki Yamanashi as she deleted her message.

“Oh, is that so? I’ll remember next time.” Despite saying so, Black Robe remained unmoved.

The other three looked at the man and the young lady with inexplicable gazes, wondering what was the relationship between the two.

However, they did not want to ask further since they only cared that the other party was willing to pay.

…

“Okay, Little Crimson, I’ve received information that the devil is a rainbow snake that lurks in human hearts,” said Fang Ning to the Crimson-mantled Woodpecker.”

“Understood, great hero, but I have one more problem. I was only able to enter the realm where I’m able to question the sky and the ground once after I achieved my breakthrough. Ever since there, I haven’t entered it at all. I’ll give it go anyway…” said the Crimson-mantled Woodpecker bitterly as it flapped its wings.

“There’s no need for that…” said Fang Ning calmly.

“Sir System, give me a pill.”

“If I had known about this I wouldn’t have let Daqing come, yet another one of my Empyrean Pills gone to waste,” grumbled the System. “I even wasted a continuous banquet. I wonder how long left before it has eaten to its heart’s content…”

“You’re so stupid. Didn’t I already find out the answer to the question…” deadpanned Fang Ning.

“Ugh, yes, yes. We can just give Daqing the answer to stop its pain…” rejoiced the System.

…

A while later, in the Draconic Arcane Realm.

The great green insect was happily yet painfully eating its food, before a mysterious voice sounded.

“The true physical appearance of the perpetrator is a rainbow snake that lurks in the hearts of humans.”

Daqing halted in its actions to rub at its stomach, before wondering aloud, “Huh, my stomach doesn’t hurt anymore.”

In the following moment, all the dishes that it had not tasted on the banquet table disappeared without a trace.

‘Hmm, as for those that it has already tasted, there’s no need to keep them away, since only clean plates will be left.’

“Ah, my food, don’t leave me, don’t go. My stomach still hurts, it still hurts so bad…” The gears in its brain started turning in a bid for it to remember the delicious tastes it had savored.

“You’re lying…” The mysterious voice carried a hint of anger.

“Hehe, my stomach really doesn’t hurt anymore. But could you please let me finish everything that’s left, I won’t ask to eat until I’m full…” begged Chong Daqing pitifully.

“That’s impossible, no, leave now.” The System did not know what being polite meant, and to those that wanted to eat free meals, it did not welcome.

“D*mn, you’re definitely not the Great Azure Dragon, since he would never speak to me like that!” spat Chong Daqing with its hands at its hips.

“Hahaha, but he still has to listen to me too.”

“That’s impossible. It’s from a pure bloodline, that I doubt even the clan leader of the True Dragon Clan could compare to. What are you to say you’re able to control it?” questioned the great green insect in disbelief.

“You little insect, so terrible at speaking. I’m not some object,” retorted the System angrily.

“Oh, so you’re not some object,” said Chong Daqing with a gleam in its eyes.

“D*mn, you and him really are peas in a pod,” admitted the System.

At the same time in the outside world, the Crimson-mantled Woodpecker had already found the rainbow snake.

It was lurking in the heart of a vagrant, with its head in the left atrium and its tail in the right. It was truly a terrifying sight.

The vagrant was fast asleep on a deserted part of lawn in a park, a bottle of wine and a gun by its hands.

Vigilante A disappeared from his place.

…

The sky and the ground shifted in color.

The vagrant looked at the Sky Deity 1 with fear in his eyes.

The wind was his wings, the thunder was his roar, the sky was his hat, and the ground was his shoes and socks.

A rainbow snake came slithering out of his nose to confront the Sky Deity.

“Hmph, I never thought that you would find me so soon, seems like this commission isn’t easy at all,” jeered the snake lazily.

“You despicable fiend! Harming human lives! Killing without provocation is a sin that will not be tolerated!” Vigilante A spoke in a righteous and stern tone, his face cold.

“Haha, how boring, how boring indeed. Why did I have to run into such a boring guy…” ridiculed the Poisonous Rainbow Snake. “Killing some people, taking a few naps, what a life. Besides, useless people are everywhere, and I won’t be able to kill them all even if I tried…”

“Shameless! What do you mean by useless? All creatures that are born are valued for their existence. Life and death are illusions that follows the principles of nature. How dare you kill indiscriminately?”

“Hahahaha. Snakes eat rats, and humans eat snake, aren’t both the same? I’m cleaning up useless people so that people like you are able to live longer and walk further…” The Poisonous Rainbow Snake swayed its triangular head as it spoke, its tone laced with disdain.

“Not only am I unappreciated, you came here to kill me. How foolish…” it continued.

“You fool! You’re using perverted logic to distort reason. I am a person of destiny, and I will shine forever with the Sun and the Moon, so would I need help from wicked beings like you?”

“Ha. That precious Moon of yours is about to be destroyed, and the Sun is going to be gone soon too. You say that you’ll shine forever with the Sun and the Moon, so it seems that you know your end well,” scoffed the Poisonous Rainbow Snake.

“Ugh, Mr. Multi-Millionaire Host, this scoundrel has a sharp mouth, so I don’t think you’ll be able to get it to submit through words alone…” seethed the System.

“Haha, then why are you speaking nonsense with it, why not just kill it?” Fang Ning was speechless.

“I want to understand how it managed to penetrate the void and never miss…” said the System sulkily.

“Oh, then why not just bring it in here for interrogation?”

“If I had the confidence to capture it, why would I waste so much time speaking nonsense with it?” spat the System scornfully.

“You’re right. Killing is easy, capturing it alive is the hard part…” Fang Ning understood this concept better than anyone. Capturing a living being was much harder than killing it.
