Chapter 618: Paying the Price

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“What pond is being filled up?” Hong Yunjiao questioned the moment she entered, sitting herself down at the green sofa nearby.

Ren Ruofeng rolled his eyes. She was the last person that he wanted to see…

He waved his hand, gesturing for Xie Dong to take his leave.

“You may leave first, I’ll provide you with the details later…”

“Understood, Advisor, I’ll take my leave now.” Xie Dong made his escape the moment he finished his words.

He was probably one of the very few who knew the truth behind what really happened between thetwo of them. However, he did not dare reveal his knowledge to the two wise elders. He might still be able to help fill up a pond, but if they made him fill up the sun, there would be nowhere to run…

“This little brat seems to know something.” Hong Yunjiao said thoughtfully as she watched him rush away.

“He wouldn’t say a word, even if he knew anything. I know him well,” Ren Ruofeng said dismissively.

“Is that so? Would you know yourself well, then?” Hong Yunjiao asked suddenly.

“Um, why would you ask that? As a wise elder, understanding oneself is the first thing to do. Of course I do know myself,” Ren Ruofeng said confidently.

“Haha, really? Then you are on the brink of going mad with obsession. The director is indeed clever,” Hong Yunjiao replied pointedly.

“Absolute nonsense. I am discreet by nature, cultivate meditation, and have always been careful. How would I get mad with obsession? This old man is bad-mouthing me behind my back again,” said Ren Ruofeng dejectedly.

“Just remember I reminded you. Anyway, I am here to consult you about ‘Strengthening the Sky Net’. Have you had any good ideas?”

Ren Ruofeng nodded. “‘Strengthening the Skynet’? After the creation of the Vitality Era, there appeared changes in the Heavenly Axiom. The Skynet was created with foundations from Heaven’s stars and China’s veins of the land. Now that I think about it, the power of the stars must have been evolved from earth’s Heavenly Axiom, and not some star from another galaxy.”

“We had later introduced it with the human psyche, and enhanced its storage for strength… With this “Immortal Skill” that’s more superior than billions in China on top of us building a strong foundation, we now have Skynet’s all-encompassing and fate repressing power…”

“Enough, you can stop with the boasting. I know about its limitations better than you. All you need to do is give a suggestion,” Hong Yunjiao said with contempt.

“Alright, you want to strengthen it, then let’s start from the foundation. Its foundation is formed from the billions of China’s We have now entered the nation’s Cultivation Era; when they become stronger, Skynet will automatically level up in response. As long as productivity is bolstered, and the Vitality Industry had given product value benefits the people with affordable merchandise, it will encourage a wide-scale upgrade in Cultivation speed…”

“Listening to this is so strenuous, why don’t you just give me a detailed proposal…” Hong Yunjiao said as she furrowed her brows.

“As the Team Leader of the Think Tank Group, you are required to gather the world’s knowledge, how can you be annoyed by a tiny obstacle? Pay attention to class,” lectured Ren Ruofeng as he pointed at the table.

“Hmph, you sure said it. I’ll prick up my ears and listen,” Hong Yunjiao snorted coldly, but did not walk away.

“The Vitality Industry is beginning to to gain prosperity. With the Venerable One inspecting from the Heavens, it will be difficult for petty thieves to mess things up. With stability and security, the industry will boom,” Ren Ruofeng paused for a moment and cupped his fists towards the East window as a show of gratitude before continuing. “Many barren lands and mountains have been transformed into Vitality crop producing territories, with many agricultural lands converted to medicinal plants…”

“If the agricultural lands are converted to medicinal plants, wouldn’t it be a problem for the already existing food shortage?” realized Hong Yunjiao.

“This is very on-point of you. When major exports were continuous from the Rice Country, there was not much of a problem. Now that there is some unrest there, even with the Venerable One conducting his inspections, it is not stable without any sign of indication of doomsday. This is why we are attempting to plant food on the 160,000 square-kilometer land in the Inheritor’s Realm.

“What? Isn’t that land meant for medicinal plants? Why convert its use?”

“Medicinal plants require only a small portion of the land. It is, after all, a plot of land that produces high-quality medicinal plants. it is not possible to plant them as we please, it will only disperse the nutrition. Excess land should be used for normal plants,” explained Ren Ruofeng.

“Now I understand, I have previously received intelligence that the Venerable One has already grasped control of the City of Vital Energy, giving him the ability of a god. Has Elder Hai found a way to completely control the Inheritor’s Real?” Hong Yunjiao said with sudden realization.

“Um, this matter is highly classified, I am unable to confirm anything,” Ren Ruofeng tried to digress the topic of conversation.

“This is unacceptable, am I not able to know with my jurisdiction?” said Hong Yunjiao unbelievably.

“Well, this is a headache. You know the rules better than anyone, we operate on a need-to-know basis. . All I can say is this, this isn’t a time when can have everything going our way, or create something out of nothing…”

“Tsk… This is truly a land of treasures constantly dreamt of by those who plant.” exclaimed Hong Yunjiao.

As someone of her age, she is savvy to the farmer’s situation despite coming from a scholarly family.

“That’s right, no modern technology is able to achieve a similar effect. High production and the frequency of harvest, can only be described with one word.”

“What would that be?”

“Manipulation.”

Hong Yunjiao was silent after hearing the word and suddenly shook her head, saying, “The Heavens would not set traps, but it also would not allow good things to happen without a price. There is sure to be a problem with high production being achieved so easily.”

“Haha, you are indeed qualified to be the Team Leader for the Think Tank Group. You are right, there is definitely depletion. After all, we would still need to uphold the laws of the conservation of the deficit is being covered from the Vitality Realm…”

“Tsk, that shouldn’t happen, isn’t this a big loss over something small?” objected Hong Yunjiao immediately.

“Yes, it is. This is why I am trying to a replacement. Vitality is precious, and can be used to strengthen one’s physicality and upgrade cultivation. If it is possible to not deplete vitality, we will conserve it. We have even thought about using the Vitality Array to replace technological methods in upgrading the people’s quality of life. However, the more time we spend communicating with the Heavens, the more we understand that Vitality is not unlimited. It’s no wonder some people cannot wait to be the last one standing in the world…” Ren Ruofeng gave a long sigh.

Right at this moment, someone flew casually across the skies above the Truth Department.

This very person knew everything that was happening within the office below, because he was mentioned in the conversation between the two within a close distance.

This was the formidability of an Inland-Sea Level, even with the secrecy of the Truth Department, they were unable to prevent the opposition from sensing them.

The Heavenly Axiom’s energy was extended to the Inland-Sea Powerhouse, a level that Sir System was able to exert.

This is the scary part of the Vitality Era. If you were planning to conspire against someone of a high level, you were almost unable to succeed if you did not have the same force as him or her.

If a Pond-Level PowerHouse were able to have a sense of what was going on, what more an Inland-Sea Powerhouse. If there was concealment from those of equal power, then there would be no trouble. If it was asymmetrical, then there would be no way to keep messages secret.

“This Oldman Ren is not too bad, at least he has gratitude and loyalty, unlike some people who only enjoy the peace we provide but constantly sabotage us,” sighed Fang Ning.

“Is that so? I think his wife said it well though, ‘The Heavens would not set traps, but also would not allow good things to happen without a price’” Sir pointed out thoughtfully.

“Uh, after all, Elder Hong… No, sounds weird, it’s Auntie Hong, she’s a wise old lady. Of course she would stand to reason,” Fang Ning said with perfunctory.

“That is why you should pay a price for enjoying all the benefits of being under my custody,” said Sir with a sudden change into his true topic of conversation.

“You, you…” Fang Ning realized he underestimated Sir’s endurance, it did not have any fidgety emotions. Once it decided on something, it would see it through.

It had previously requested a fee for his custodianship, and it looked like it was seizing this opportunity on pretext!

No way, it should be suppressed!
