Chapter 713: Enter In Person

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the headquarters of the American Investigation Bureau.

Somewhere in the hall, Hook, William, and a couple of evil alchemists gathered together.

“Brother William, I’ve already taught you all the incantations of getting in and out of this arcane realm. You can now open the entrance to the Land of Sanguinity,” Hook said sincerely.

“I hope that your words are true. Otherwise, you’d know what’s called ‘God’s Wrath...” William said coldly.

“Trust me, how could wise people like us deceive you with lies that can so easily be tested?” Hook responded seriously.

“That better be it.” William nodded. Sparks flashed up from his hands as he started muttering the incantations.

Not long after, the Fire Gates appeared once more. The flames were a shade of vivid red, seemingly emitting the smell of blood.

“Hmm... Right enough.” Hook looked at the reappeared fire door intricately.

This unmistakably proved that William Robert was the next candidate. The Land of Sanguinity was actually opening its gates, especially for the other party.

As for himself, he remained puzzled why he was unable to enter the gates. This sort of preferential treatment would no doubt anger whoever encountered it.

Why?!

Hatred filled his heart. ‘Since this is the case, I’ll do anything to not let these so-called chosen ones, these traitors, to succeed. I’ll try my best and do everything I can to ensure that this arcane realm will rightfully belong to me!’ He thought to himself.

“Hey, young man, you’re really good. Care to join us?” A middle-aged Caucasian woman who had a thick layer of foundation glanced at the Fire Gates greedily before turning to look at the handsome man in front of her.

“Hehe, I apologize, Countess Barito. Besides my uncle’s request, I’ll only accept invitations from beautiful ladies.” William shook his head in a gentlemanly manner.

“Hmph, you’ll regret this, boy,” The Countess responded in a threatening tone.

“The only thing that’s made me regret up to date has only happened once. I believe that it won’t happen again in the future.” William’s expression suddenly sank.

In the hall, a small thunderbolt struck with a rumbling sound.

The crowd was startled suddenly. Among the many discussions, heavenly bodies were mentioned, and the alleged name “Son of God” was indeed well deserved.

Nobody was talking nonsense anymore.

“There’s not a moment to lose. Come on, before something happens again.” Hook smiled and stretched out his hand with a welcoming manner.

William nodded. He wanted to be the first to go in, but Hook reached out to stop him.

“Sorry, Mr. William, you’ll have to be the last one to enter.”

...

In the Land of Sanguinity, somewhere by the River of Blood.

A black shadow moved around up and down, killing a sea monster. Beside him, an extremely dark book was tailing it just like a responsible bodyguard, killing all the sea monsters that were on the verge of death.

“Damn it, even Vigilante A will use such despicable means! He’s clearly afraid that I’ll take away this precious land!” Black Robe lashed out a palm and smashed the sea monsters to pieces.

Then, the black book quickly went forward, and while the opponents were plotting, it blasted their souls completely...

“Hey, you damn book, how cunning of you! You were golden in color when you were swimming over but how are you able to change into me in such a short span of time? Obviously, you’re trying to mislead the monsters and let them believe that we’re a gang! Leave now if you’re sensible, or if I really get angry, I’ll tear you apart!” Black Robe could not help but threatened.

The black book was indifferent, though. Still remaining by his side, it looked as if it was getting ready to attack...

“Damn, how can you be so thick-faced?” Black Robe could do nothing about it.

All of a sudden, a fish swam over quickly. Its body was long and narrow just like a sharp sword, and it was heading towards Black Robe.

An idea hit upon Black Robe. With a quick glide, he turned to the back of the black book.

He then heard a loud bang and the swordfish crashed into the black book...

“Hahaha, this time you’re dead for sure!” Black Robe laughed out proudly.

If one were to talk about malicious treachery, how could a talisman possibly compare to someone on the Path of Demons?

However, the next moment, he noticed that the black book was not damaged at all. In fact, not one white mark was left. Most of all, in the midst of the swordfish’s dizziness, it ducked behind him once again.

“Dang it, it’s a particularly strong talisman too, not one of those pieces of china or bottle gourds...” Black Robe said gloomily.

He still did not want to deal with the black book directly though, or that would inevitably lead to Vigilante A’s interference. Presumably, the other party was searching for an excuse to get rid of him.

At this thought, he was somewhat relieved. If only Vigilante A was a man on the Path of Demons as well, there would be no need to engage in tricks as such as he could just straight up kill everyone...

This was also where he had an opportunity...

With this thought in mind, he gathered all his energy once more to kill the monsters...

As for the black book that was aside waiting to kill, he decided to just ignore it for now. After all, how many can it possibly kill?

...

In the System Space.

“This darn book’s pretty efficient. During this short period, it already helped Black Robe grab several heads. It’s even craftier than me,” the System praised.

“That’s of course, I’ve taught it well,” Fang Ning took all the credit himself very frankly.

“Oh please, that’s clearly all me. I was the one who gave it a good foundation, how can this all be your work?” The System argued.

“I’m too lazy to bother with these useless arguments with you. Let’s just let the person speak for itself,” Fang Ning said with satisfaction.

“Shameless. You do know that it’s more partial to you, that’s why you’re saying that.” The System sulked.

“Stop talking nonsense and pay attention to that wicked spirit.” Fang Ning looked outside through the System’s angle of view, only to see blood splashing all over the place. A massacre was already set off along the entire river.

“Don’t worry, it can’t run away,” the system said confidently.

“Careful its head gets picked up by someone else,” Fang Ning reminded.

“No way, only I would grab it. How can there be others?” The System replied with an affirmative tone.

“Alright, that’s good then. Oh no, a voice just told me another candidate has come in. This voice should belong to the Heavenly Axiom of this realm. Seems like it’s not Yin Energy Realm from that other time. This almost has complete willpower.” Fang Ning suddenly came around, bewildered.

“This again.” At those words, the System was extremely upset. “Why do all these weird beings only pass messages to you. You’re just ballast.”

“Nonsense! I’m the actual owner of Vigilante A and you’re just an accessory hanging by me. Since when is there such a thing where one skirts around the owner to share information?” Fang Ning jaunted.

“Damn it. One day will come where I, the great System, will have everyone bow before me. This land will sing for me, and everyone will know my great name,” the System was indignant.

“You’re really stupid. Don’t you know that the more hidden you are, the safer you are? If everyone knows about you, the enemy’s the one in the dark, whereas you’ll be in the light.” Fang Ning was close to speechless.

“Oh, is that the case? That does make sense. Well, since that’s the case, I’ll keep low-key then. Everything’s directed to only you,” the System said lamely.

“Cut the nonsense, the second candidate has entered. You’ll have to work hard now,” Fang Ning reminded.

“I’m always working hard alright? If I needed your reminding, I would’ve hit the dirt long ago. You, on the other hand, can hurry up and go hit the irons,” the System snorted.

“No, I’m going to train. I still have this feeling that everything’s not going to be settled in the end, and I’ll have to personally come out and settle it.” Fang Ning shook his head.

After that, with both legs crossed, he sat in the Lounge and began cultivating.

“Sharpening your spear only before going into battle. I guess such last-minute preparation’s still better than nothing, just train for a while then,” the System said approvingly.

However, Fang Ning had already lost all senses by then. His demeanor turned solemn and serious as he seemingly entered the Realm Beyond Appearance. It seemed like he was cultivating the True Bodhi Tactics that he had been out of touch for quite some time.

Rays of golden light hovered around him back and forth, flicking at times.

“I didn’t expect you little brat to cultivate to this stage without even realizing. The True Bodhi Tactics is actually something difficult to cultivate,” the System exclaimed in shock.

However, Fang Ning did not respond.
