Chapter 168: Vigilante A Isn’t Just One Person

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a long time, the white lady opened his eyes and whispered something.

When she had finished, a hint of ferocity flashed through the face of the middle-aged white man next to her before calmness took over again.

He turned and talked to the younger white man, but suddenly they started arguing before being interrupted by the lady.

Somehow, even though they were arguing furiously, they weren’t making any noise.

A moment later the group of people left the place like they weren’t there before.

As they left, the place that they were standing on started forming a green cloud and moving towards the valley. The cloud blended with the surrounding air and turned colorless and odorless.

…

Master Ma was sitting on the stage and listening, uninterested, to Vigilante A showboating.

A herb with a clear stem and seven-colored flowers on its leaves was floating in front of Vigilante A. He was explaining with a straight face, “Everyone, this is a herb called the Seven XX Purple. This herb is a rare herb. It has special properties as it can help with coughs, asthma…”

Compared to the bored Master Ma, the others were focused on him showing off, and there were many of them that were ready to place an order.

The ceremony had entered its main event, the herb commentary.

A beautiful lady was harvesting all the herbs and placing them in a basket.

At the center of the venue, the stone stage was redecorated. In the middle was a long wooden table and behind it were a row of chairs.

Sitting on the chair was Vigilante A, Master Ma, and a couple of other famous medical personnel. Qi Yan was, of course, one of the panel judges. Although she was a lady and the youngest among the rest, none of the rich and famous felt that she didn’t deserve to be there. It was obvious her name had already spread far among the industry.

The panel was acting as judges and experts, every time a herb was placed on the stage they would comment on it and explain its uses and side effects.

However, among all the judges, Vigilante A was the most influential. He was born gifted, just like a God, so whatever he said was just accepted by the others without hesitation. All he needed to do was say something positive and the rest will help him to add onto it.

Master Ma was different compared to the others. Mount Indigo Monastery was one of the partners of the Truth Department. Although his department rating was not as high as Vigilante A’s “Harmony Powers Ltd.”, and somehow, without any reason, his department ranking had dropped by a level, he still had the privilege of buying some normal vitality herbs from the Truth Department.

He had experience handling herbs that were sold by the Truth Department, so he wasn’t interested with these herbs produced in the valley.

He could tell how good those herbs truly were. Although Vigilante A was sometimes exaggerating, what he said wasn’t completely wrong.

The herbs that were produced here were really ten times better than normal herbs, but when compared to those sold by the Truth Department, these herbs would be ten times worse.

The reason why he was there was to get to know more advocates and improve his relationships. At the same time, he was looking for investors by pulling in more people from higher society. He never intended to expose anyone or cause any trouble. He still owed Vigilante A a favor, so he would never try to start an unnecessary conflict with him and would instead let others look at them as a form of entertainment.

When it was his turn, he would just nod and smile while praising the Venerable Dragon God on how knowledgeable he was to give such detailed explanations. He said he had bad eyes and didn’t comment anymore.

After more than ten rounds, everyone started to rest for an intermission.

The System said to Fang Ning, “That Master Ma is still ok. There were some parts that I’d blown my lies to ridiculous proportions and I thought he would point it out. I never thought he would choose to remain silent.”

Fang Ning was speechless, “Master Ma is a wise old man, he’s definitely smarter than you. There’s no point for him to offend us, so there’s no way he would do such a thing.”

They were discussing before seeing Master Ma’s face changed as he was talking to a judge. He stood up and rushed to find Fatso Liu who was hosting the ceremony and whispered to him.

Fang Ning relied on the hearing prowess that Sir System gave him. At that moment he could hear clearly the words that Master Ma was saying, “Chairman Liu, something is going on. Hurry up and evacuate everyone now. Someone has poisoned the air. The level of toxicity is still not at its strongest so there’s still time to get everyone out of here.”

The System said, “What poison? We just praised him for not exposing us, what is he planning to do now?”

Fang Ning thought about what happened and was shocked, “He said someone released some poison. Someone like him never lies for no reason. Why didn’t you warn me beforehand?”

The System said, “I sensed no danger, so what’s the point of alarming you?”

Fang Ning was confused but suddenly realized something, “Damn it, you have the Poison Prevention Orb with you so of course, you won’t notice any danger. Master Ma is the same pond-level master just like you so it is normal for him to sense it!”

Fang Ning got furious as he spoke.

Inside the area were those people that he knew and was close to, like President Zhao, Fatso Liu, as well as some businessmen in the Chamber of Commerce that Fang Ning knew with his own identity.

He initially thought they were specifically targeting Vigilante A, or maybe trying to ambush him or something. Who would have known that their tactic was to poison the air and cause mass genocide!

The perpetrators were extremely evil, just like the bug monster. They both never cared about innocent lives, their actions can never be forgiven.

If Master Ma weren’t there, the only time they would know someone had poisoned the air was when everyone, including himself and the System, was lying on the ground!

Fang Ning held back his anger and asked the System, “How are you going to deal with this?”

The System replied, “This is easy. I just need to activate the Detoxification ability that came with the equipment, and we can clear away the poison gas.”

Fang Ning felt relieved. He was too worried that he forgot his legendary equipment, the Poison Prevention Orb, had a Detoxification ability.

He heard the System Notification immediately, [The System has used the legendary equipment Poison Prevention Orb, activated the Detoxification technique, the poison in the air has been cleared.]

Fatso Liu heard Master Ma’s warning, but he didn’t start the evacuation. Instead, the first thing he did was to find Vigilante A.

Vigilante A waved his hand and said, “I know about everything. Some criminals did try to release poison here, but all of that has been removed using my skill, so don’t need to cause panic.”

Fatso Liu became calmed as he heard that, and turned and looked at Master Ma.

Master Ma frowned before carefully sensed the surrounding. He relaxed after a moment and said in admiration, “The Venerable One was born as a true dragon and can repel all kinds of evilness. You cleared such poisonous venom with ease. I shouldn’t have worried so much with you here.”

The System said, “He said we’re a lucky charm, but I don’t think he meant something nice.”

Fang Ning replied, “Don’t a complaint so much. Give me back my body, I want to personally thank him.”

Fang Ning reclaimed his body and thanked Master Ma, “I am not sensitive towards poison in the human world. Thanks to you, Master Ma, we were informed and avoided a disaster. Chairman Liu, after our ceremony we must thank Master Ma’s actions.”

Master Ma originally thought that Chairman Li didn’t trust him and felt displeased. But now that the Venerable Dragon God was complimenting him truthfully, his emotion disappeared.

He smiled and said, “No worries. I am a monk, so it is my duty to be kind-hearted. You don’t need to praise me for that.”

Fang Ning said, “Those criminals might still be hiding around here. I hope Master Ma can continue to stay here and take care of all these people on my behalf. I will go and have a look around.”

Master Ma tidied up his beard and laughed, “You can go ahead and chase those criminals. So long as I am here, I will ensure the safety of everyone.”

He thought that having done this, he would have done a good deed as well as garner some fame for himself. Plus, the risk was entirely borne by someone else. This trip turned out to be really beneficial for him, and he should be rubbing shoulders with the Venerable Dragon God.

Fang Ning turned towards the System and said, “Just now the System Map didn’t show any red dots. If not, you should have realized it already. Seems to me the group is similar to Elder Bai. They all have some technique that makes themselves undetectable. You will need to look for them.”

The System replied, “I don’t need you to say that. However, your tactic is really working. These people somehow dare to continue to give us trouble.”

Fang Ning said, “Maybe. But I feel like those people are trying to lure us out using the poison. They’re very cunning. They’re telling us that if we don’t come out, others would be hurt. If we asked Master Ma to follow us then none of the others will be protected. What they want is to challenge us personally. Looks like they have thoroughly investigated everything about Vigilante A, but they would never imagine that Vigilante A was not just one person.”

The System replied, “But I was never a person anyway.”

Fang Ning, “…”
