Chapter 177: Hurry Up And Turn Blue

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In Qi City’s district, on the pathway towards Vigilante A’s suburb farm, a Benz was cruising smoothly with a Land Rover and a big truck behind it.

It was the convoy sent by Fang Family Restaurant. At that moment, a quiet conversation was going on inside the leading Benz.

When Zhao Ying looked at her serious-looking boss on the passenger seat, she was speechless, “How long has it been, the boss had shriveled away in the blink of an eye, in the end he’s still sent his Mechanical Puppet out to deal with situations, what a lazy man indeed.”

She carried her hamster and lowered her head to secretly communicate through telepathy, but since she was not very familiar with that technique, she stammered at times.

“Xiao, Xiao Cang, you…are you sure? We’re going to meet my savior now, yet he still dares to send a fake person to handle the situation, isn’t he scared that my savior will be sent into a rage like an emperor?”

The hamster looked completely dumbstruck. “Rage like an emperor? You really think that your savior is the ‘Fourth Master’. I think that he has nothing to fear, or he can’t be bothered to fuss over it with the True Dragon. It’s no doubt that his fake body is very quaint, but in the eyes of some powerhouses with extremely sensitive senses, it’ll be uncovered instantly.”

Zhao Ying rubbed the hamster’s snowy white belly and said, “Eh, Xiao Cang, are you a powerhouse too? Why can’t I tell?”

The hamster was frustrated, it thought to itself, “That’s because both Master Cang and I have good temper, if it were another hamster, it would’ve completely scared you from the start…”

Even so, it would not say that out, instead it said, “That depends on who you compare me to…”

At that instant, the Benz started shaking abruptly without any warning. Zhao Ying only felt an air current pushing against her, which secured her body. She barely slanted a few inches.

She sounded confused as she said, “I’m starting to believe you, but what was that?”

Fortunately, it only took a few seconds before the car regained its stability.

The driver decelerated slowly, put on the hazard lights and stopped on the side. The two cars behind them stopped accordingly.

The driver turned around and said anxiously, “The ground seemed to have shaken for a while just now, I don’t know what happened. Boss, do we still continue?”

Fang Ning’s Mechanical Puppet was hesitant at that moment, he did not say a word.

Right then, Zhao Ying suddenly said, “Boss, we have to keep going now and arrive at that hero’s house immediately, it’s the safest there.”

Upon hearing that, “Fang Ning” said, “Yes, do as Manager Zhao says, keep going.”

The driver nodded, then departed while communicated with the two cars behind through the interphone

Fang Ning had already returned to the farm villa in advance and let Sir System control his body. He pretended to have gone training in isolation, however, halfway through, he felt the ground shaking, so he immediately came out.

In the courtyard, Zheng Dao, both the black and yellow dogs, and many other employees of the villa were gathered immediately.

Sir System’s followers were quite calm. After all, this was nothing new to it.

Nonetheless, the farmworkers seemed to look panicked as they whispered to one another.

Only when Vigilante A came out did they started getting calmer.

“Don’t panic, it didn’t happen here, it’s somewhere far away.” Right after he said that, everyone looked more at peace, they started to whisper.

“Since the hero said so, he should be right.”

“Sigh, I wonder what happened again, I suppose that it’s not an ordinary earthquake. Based on the internet circulations lately, catastrophes that appear now are mostly accompanied by strange incidents, it’s not as simple as it used to be.” A young worker said softly.

“We don’t have to be worried here since the hero is keeping watch, strange incidents won’t be able to find their way here.” Somebody said in comfort.

At that moment, the yellow dog received a call. After that, an extremely disappointed expression flashed across its face. It then turned to communicate with the black dog through telepathy.

“Dan Dan said that it was frightened by what just happened, and that she’d like to stay home a few days. It’s a pity, Chef Fang just called to say that he wants to meet the Venerable One today, and will help out in the kitchen at the same time, he’s already on his way and will be here soon.”

The black dog gloated and said, “Hehe, Yellow Boss, even God wants you to stay single…”

The yellow dog countered. “I won’t help with your missing lesson tonight, go on with your own training.”

The black dog was speechless, “…”

“Alright, you may return, everything is well now.” After some time, Vigilante A said.

Upon hearing that, everyone gladly dispersed.

Not long after, Vigilante A saw his Mechanical Puppet enter together with the people from Fang Family Restaurant.

After all the greetings, the Mechanical Puppet introduced the hamster to Vigilante A.

A short while later, the human and the hamster arrived in the side hall.

In the side hall, the warm winter sunshine shone through the wide and tidy french window.

The hamster plopped onto the table. It had a very complicated look as it looked at Vigilante A with its tiny eyes. It remained silent for some time.

Fang Ning felt a little strange. He called out to it, yet the hamster held back its words on the tip of its tongue, like they seemed stuck on its throat.

They had such a heated conversation previously, so much that its Favorability was about to turn green, if it Zhao Ying hadn’t interrupted…

“Why did it suddenly turn cold to me?”, he thought.

The System said, “Why isn’t it talking, it’s almost like it became another person?”

When he heard that, Fang Ning immediately understood, “You were right with your guess. There are two souls inside this hamster’s body. It should be the other soul now, it’s probably guilty and ashamed of something wrong that it did to us, I suppose that it doesn’t know what to say now?”

The System said, “Oh, I get it then. It’s much better than you, really. You’re more thick-faced than it, since you always look so calm when I expose to you the guilty wrongdoings that you did.”

Fang Ning retorted, dissatisfied. “When have I? I never do anything that gives me a guilty conscience.”

The System said, “When haven’t you? Previously when I gave you a long break, you stole my money while I was training in isolation, you were afraid that I’d find out, so you even did a wall-hitting experiment to see if I was there, but I still spotted you in the end.”

Fang Ning didn’t have anything to say in return. It was suddenly struck dumb and could only manage to say, “You have such a good memory, how long has it been, why do you still bring it up? Is it significant, we’re still friends, aren’t we?”

The System replied curtly, “Of course it’s significant, you mentioned that you’re going to set up a website and let Zheng Dao be an agent for my pills, all of which will be a huge business. I’m bringing this up so to remind you to not have wishful thinking of getting commission from it. It’ll just be a waste of effort, and it’ll only waste my time making transfers.”

Fang Ning finally responded and started fighting back, “Well, if you’re really doing this, it’s not like you’re completely free of wrongdoing either. That time when you gave me a break, you even stole my Relief Time and suffered losses, after that you still blamed me for not reminding you in advance, you were much more thick-faced then…”

The System was at a lost for words, “…”

While Fang Ning and the System were conversing, there were also two voices in the hamster’s head.

Bai Ruocang said with some doubt, “Master Cang, you agreed to associate with Vigilante A. Now at the very last minute, why do you keep biting your tongue when he’s greeting and talking to you?”

Master Cang shook his head and sighed, “Sigh, now that I’ve seen him, I feel extremely guilty and ashamed. It’s really hard for me to speak, how about you do it instead?”

Bai Ruocang hesitated, “We’re here today to meet and get to know him better, we’ll talk about the cultivation matters and make friends with him, to thank him for giving us shelter these few months, and to help matchmake Sister Ying who’s obsessed with him… Why do you have to feel guilty and ashamed?”

Master Cang said, “That’s the initial plan. But after we met just now, my instinct tells me that Vigilante A’s soul has some serious injury. After repeated confirmation, I realized that it’s much worse. Think about it, in the past few months we’ve been at ease and sheltered, spending our days freely; yet he has been busy serving justice everywhere so that there will be peace. He must have experienced a great danger to have gotten those serious wounds now…”

When Bai Ruocang heard so, it understood immediately. He replied with a sigh. “I see, Master Cang, you used to say that the Greater Rat King Clan has a unique talent called the Death Instinct, but you’ve surpassed that and can detect even more dangers. Are you feeling sorry for not meeting him earlier so we could’ve helped him?”

Master Cang nodded and said, “That’s right. Should I have met him earlier instead of this day, maybe I could’ve helped him from getting his soul severely injured…”

Bai Ruocang comforted him. “Master, you shouldn’t blame yourself for being kind. Back then we spent a lot of effort before we successfully went inside the body of an ill and dying hamster, you were worried that you’d burden him too. After resting for months to regain our strength, it’s not too late if we only meet him now to thank him for his help. You don’t have to blame yourself.”

Master Cang said, “That lifts up my mood slightly. Alright, I’ll do it then.”

The System said, “Eh, the hamster has turned green.”

Fang Ning said, “Very well, I hope that it’ll be just like both the black and yellow dogs, I hope they’ll be quick to turn blue.”

After a while, the hamster finally spoke.

This time, its voice was totally different from that youth’s voice, which sounded much smoother, it had a gentle and majestic charm to it.

“Venerable Dragon God, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you for a long time, I should’ve visited long ago, and I’m really sorry to have delayed the visitation until today.”

When the hamster spoke, the System pushed Fang Ning out to deal with it, as it was not an expert in coaxing.

Fang Ning said, “It doesn’t matter, you’re Xiao Cang that Boss Fang introduced from before?”

Master Cang said, “That’s right, my given name is the word ‘Cang’, and I’m actually the son of the legal first wife of the Elder Ancestor. Due to some unspeakable reasons, we were separated.”

Fang Ning nodded and replied, “Oh, I see. Master Cang, since you chose to meet me today, I suppose that you have something to say?”

Master Cang said, “I’m ashamed to have lived freely for a couple of months, and I owe it all to your prestige, hero, as you’ve sheltered me safely. Yet, I’ve never repaid you for your kindness. As a matter of fact, I have a number of unique abilities, I’m able to detect dangers, if you’re going to serve justice somewhere, I could give you advanced warning in case you fall into danger again.”

Fang Ning understood at once.

Sir System was still puzzled, it asked, “It keeps going round and round, what does it mean? Quickly, translate it for me.”

Fang Ning said, “We were too successful in hiding our true strength, and its instinct is too good. Although it’s just a Basin-level contestant, it was aware that Vigilante A was severely injured. It feels that although it’ll live peacefully if he relies on Vigilante A, and did not maintain the order of the world with Vigilante A when it actually ha the talent to warn him of danger. Instead, it let Vigilante A run about everywhere which resulted in his injuries, so it felt extremely ashamed as it did not take up the responsibility.”

The System, “Oh, if that’s the case, it really thinks that it had done something that gave it a guilty conscience… Host, how did you guess things like this so accurately? Have you always done something like that too?”

Fang Ning was speechless. The idiotic System no longer said “You’re so wise, host” now that his prediction was accurate, instead, it used it as a chance to take revenge, what a grudge-bearing fellow.

Nonetheless, it made a right guess this time, indeed, he used to secretly read novels during work and always felt guilty about it…

The System continued, “If he feels so sorry, why don’t it just turn blue now and seek refuge in us? I don’t need his Warning Ability. Regarding danger detection, I’m much better than it.”

Fang Ning said, “Rubbish, didn’t you hear about his family background? It is a master from a noble family, of course it has to be self-restrained, it’s different from the black and yellow dogs.”

The System said, “This is so troublesome, what with this self-restraint, come up with an idea so that it’ll quickly turn blue.”
