Chapter 768: An Important Matter

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bodhisattva Spirit King inspected the Space Passage meticulously and it was not for nothing. He did find some problems here and there, and had to fix all of them.

After he was done, Bodhisattva Spirit King shook his head and smiled, “What a cunning old demon. I’m not sure if he was careless, or he made the mistakes intentionally. After all, the blockage of Space Passage is a difficult task. What he did was beyond his power level and ability, so I can’t be nit-picking.”

“I’m so glad that you’re here. Otherwise, we would have consequential issues to deal with later on,” Vigilante A was nodding approvingly.

“These insignificant defects are like ant nests on the dike, nothing usually happens on a good day. Once the waves come crashing in, it would be destroyed completely,” Bodhisattva Spirit King shook his head and sighed.

“It seems that you really know the Space Passage from inside out, and I admire you for that,” Vigilante A said.

“When I was in the Upper Realm, I had to outsmart and conquer all the demons. The demons were very devious when it comes to hiding and escaping. I had to learn every nook and cranny of the Space Passage. Otherwise, it would’ve been impossible to dig them out,” Bodhisattva Spirit King said humbly.

“You’re being too modest. The Space Passage that connects to the Upper Realm can’t be fully opened, nor can it be completely closed, hence the gaps. However, the demonic beings shouldn’t be allowed to enter and leave freely anymore. I have an idea, we should set a checkpoint in Space Passage to manage the entry,” the System shamelessly took Fang Ning’s idea as his own.

“That sounds great. I like how you already came up with a deliberate plan. I have some ideas to control the Space Passage, but there are some unusual things about it that I have to take into consideration. I’ll contemplate on it and inform you later on,” Bodhisattva Spirit King was delighted to hear about the System’s idea.

He agreed that this idea was brilliant. Compared to the unrestricted entry and exit back then, a checkpoint would function as an extra precaution.

This was not done previously because the timing was not right. The Venerable Dragon Lord was not as strong as he is now, and his own powers were not recovered.

The time had come now.

It had been more than two years since the beginning of the vitality era. A strong foundation was since established. The manpower was abundant, talents were overflowing, and the basic cultivation system was built. It was the right time to protect oneself.

At this point, action should be taken against those who enjoy the fruits of others’ labor by chopping off their arms.

After all, a lot of struggles were involved in developing a new place and a lot of risks had to be taken. It was incomparable to any other endeavors.

Even Bodhisattva Spirit King himself almost lost his divine consciousness, not to mention others.

After hearing that, Vigilante A nodded and said, “I’m afraid I have to trouble you to settle everything. I’ll make sure to repay your kindness to show my gratitude.”

“That’s very kind of you, very kind…,” Bodhisattva Spirit King gradually vanished right after.

It seems like Bodhisattva Spirit King was eager to get things done.

Hence the System was perplexed,” Bodhisattva Spirit King’s from the Upper Realm, but why was he more eager than us two indigenes to build a checkpoint?”

“Ish, you really are ignorant. Have you even read about the history of western colonialism?” Fang Ning said in a condescending tone, “just like the sages said, ‘all history is contemporary history.’”

“No, I haven’t. Why? Unlike you, I didn’t have so much leisure time to go through all the historical novels on the shelves. I had to train, and fight all kinds of demons,” the System said righteously with a hint of despise.

“Oh, then I’ll tell you,” Fang Ning sounded guilty, “It’s simple. He’s among the first colonizers reaping all the benefits. The Upper Realm’s a colony in the European continent. The contradiction between the colonizers and the colony can never be resolved, the independence of the colony would come sooner or later. If you look at the whole of America, it was not the natives who killed the Europeans most, it was the Europeans themselves.”

“The contradiction between the firstcomer and the latecomer was also unresolvable. After all, the biggest enemy of a time traveler is actually the time traveler himself.”

“Now I finally understand, it’s all because of the conflicts of interest,” the System came to a realization.

“Yes. All conflicts in the world are essentially caused by conflicts of interest.” Fang Ning said with conviction.

“All conflicts in the world are essentially caused by the conflicts of interest… ”

In a side hall somewhere in the palace of Greater Rat Kingdom, Elder Ancestor Bai, who was wearing a black gentleman hat with a wide brim had a conversation with the current owner of the palace – Bai Shixin.

Bai Shixin sat on the sofa opposite Elder Ancestor Bai and said nothing. He knew that Elder Ancestor Bai would be released, but he was surprised because he did not expect it to be so soon. Moreover, he did not receive any news beforehand. What he did not know was that Elder Ancestor Bai was released because he helped the beings from the Upper Realm to mess with vitality.

“Since you’ve already taken my position and this place’s still prosperous and stable, I’ll let you be for the time being. Seeing that you’re still willing to be under my command. However, you have to remember that this is temporary. What you have now was borrowed, and you’ll have to return it sooner or later… And for the person you have to return it to, I’m sure you already know who it is,” Ancestor Elder Bai said coldly.

Bai Shixin did not show any facial expressions, he did not want to argue or pick a fight. He also knew that whatever he said was not going to make any difference. It’s just like what Ancestor Elder Bai said, “All conflicts in the world are essentially caused by the conflict of interests”.

He was also clearly aware of the person that Elder Ancestor Bai was talking about.

Ancestor Elder Bai had previously shown signs of wanting to pass on his position, and Bai Shixin was trapped because of it.

Bai Shixin was surprised that Ancestor Elder Bai let things go so easily. He thought maybe a year of prison life changed Ancestor Elder Bai’s point of view.

Ancestor Elder Bai stared at Bai Shixin coldly, then turned around and disappeared.

“Hmph, if it wasn’t for the golden fillet on my head, I would destroy a traitor like you by ripping off all your skin and bones!”

A moment after Ancestor Elder Bai disappeared, Bai Shixin started talking to someone else.

“Master Bai, this old demon is released again. You have to ask the person why he didn’t inform me about this. Was it because he wanted to cast us aside after getting our help? Although looking at this situation, his goals are still far from being reached,” Bai Shixin was displeased.

“Don’t worry. The old demon didn’t even dare to do anything to you, clearly he didn’t get his complete freedom. However, I found the extra headpiece that he was wearing a little strange… Didn’t he used to have long white hair?” Master Bai’s voice was ringing in its head.

“Master Bai, your observation was out of place. Maybe when he was imprisoned, he was forced to shave its head off.” Bai Shixin simply responded and urged Master Bai. “I think it’s better to keep in touch with the person as soon as possible, in case there’s something we don’t already know.”

“Alright,” Master Bai promised.

Not long after, the message came. “About this, the person had no clue as well. It seemed that Ancestor Elder Bai was released in secret. According to his speculation, Ancestor Elder Bai must’ve done something that was confidential, that’s why he wasn’t informed to prevent the news being leaked out. After the vitality era, a lot of mighty beings were good at the method of divine calculation except him. His powers were not strong enough, that’s why it was hard for him to keep this a secret,” Master Bai reported.

“Oh, I see. What is it that he did? Wisdom grows with age I guess. No wonder Vigilante A didn’t kill him, he probably has some value in use that I didn’t know about, “Bai Shixin muttered to itself.

“You shouldn’t use your petty means to measure the intentions of a righteous man. The Venerable One didn’t kill him, but it must be for the sake of the world, and not because he wanted to take advantage of him,” Master Bai retorted.

Master Bai was very grateful towards Vigilante A all along. If it wasn’t for Vigilante A’s protection, his only offspring would have been killed by the old demon.

After all, the old demon was powerful and elusive. The only being he was afraid of was the Venerable Dragon Lord who appeared out of the blue.

“Alright, I don’t want to argue with you over something so meaningless. Since the old man’s not doing anything, that’s fine. If he acts otherwise, I’ve prepared several ways to deal with it,” Bai Shixin shook its head and said.

At this moment, Vigilante A was training and waiting for Bodhisattva Spirit King’s news.

The System suddenly reminded, “It seems like you forgot something important.”

“What important matter? That’s impossible. I’m busy now so don’t bother me,” Fang Ning was looking on his phone screen and playing a Pay-to-Win mobile game.

He used to feel guilty for spending on Pay-to-Win back then that he only spent a little, but now he was different. That was because he realized that money was not permanent. He owned a lot of properties, so the money he spent would come back to him in a moment.

Such as Robert’s Magical Bank, he relied on his skills to become a shareholder, and he was constantly recovering a huge amount of funds.

“We released the old demon, but we didn’t inform Ren Ruofeng and the rest, my intuition tells me that this would cause some problems,” the System predicted.

“Well, it was mainly because I was busy maintaining the peace in the world, and I haven’t had time to inform them,” Fang Ning smacked his head, “Seeing that they have already detected its presence with Nets Above Snares Below, I don’t think I have to anymore.”

“You’re just lazy and forgetful, and that’s why you forgot to inform them,” the System saw through Fang Ning.

“Cut out the crap. If you want to inform them, just let Zheng Dao handle it. Don’t trouble me, I want to rest for a while,” Fang Ning said justly.

“For the past month, only the three of us have been working hard. I didn’t see you do anything, not even lifting your hands….,” the System said bitterly.

“That’s nonsense, aren’t my hands grown on you?”
