Chapter 167: We Have Been Tricked
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Ning looked at the crowd from the stage. On the surface, he remained calm, but deep down he was happy with himself.

The System only did everything only for the fame and would not react to everything else, but Fang Ning was different. He was a human after all. Now that he was at this level, the mental satisfaction was much more addictive than physical satisfaction. This was why he was addicted towards novels and games instead of food and drinks.

He felt joyful as he acted so influential in front of all those rich and famous people from all over the country. As they say, we might as well be dead if we lived our lives not being able to show off!

Prior to that, he could only admire people as someone standing in the crowd, but at that moment, he felt like a principal talking to a group of students.

As he thought of this, he felt satisfied. Most people always had the desire to prove themselves, the difference was that some were more expressive about this desire compared to others.

Those few lines were just his opening speech, so he had yet to finish enjoying the moment. He thought for a moment and was ready to continue. Just when he was about to speak, he was stunned.

[The System is evaluating…]

[The System is evaluating…]

[The System has decided to fight for justice…]

Fang Ning was shocked and interrupted the stupid System, "What the, I thought you're supposed to be in isolated cultivation, what the hell do you think you're doing?"

System replied, "All only care about is your act, did you even notice what's on the System Map? There are three red dots below the stage."

Fang Ning never had those cheating programs like the multitasking skill. Of course, he wouldn't have noticed anything…

He realized that he was still on the stage. It was alright to stop for a moment, but it would be awkward if he continued to remain silent and talked to the System. He turned towards Fatso Liu and said, "Chairman Liu, I am just a master, so I won't talk anymore. This stage is all yours now."

Fatso Liu nodded. For him to be able to make this secretive and full-of-surprise hero give a speech like that was already satisfactory. He's the kind of crazy hero that could have said "in broad daylight" when it was in the middle of the night.

Fang Ning walked down the stage and was guided by a staff to his VIP seat, and continued its conversation with the stupid System.

Fang Ning said, "I'm gonna go read the map now, but don't try anything crazy. If you destroy this ceremony we will not get a single penny."

The System replied unhappily, "You think I'm some System that values money more than justice? If I continue to let those bad guys roam freely without attempting to catch them it will degrade my chivalrous virtue."

"Oh, I'm sorry. There were too many times you fell for money that I'd already forgotten about your chivalrous virtue," Fang Ning replied while opening the System Map. After he read it he was speechless. "Someone actually dares to come here and cause trouble. They never took Vigilante A as a serious threat to them. My play has only just begun. (TN Note: His move of acting weak but being strong/ being a wolf in sheep's clothing.) There are people on our doorstep already even before you feign weakness. How crazy will it be if you actually started acting weak?"

System replied, "Only you will become weak, I will never change…"

Fang Ning didn't reply, instead reminded, "I am fine if you want to get involved, but remember to hold your power back and don't spoil my act."

[The System is evaluating…]

[The System is evaluating…]

[The System has decided to learn a new skill.]

System notification: [The System consumed 1 million Experience Points to learn Beginner-level Faking Technique via Master-level Art of Disguise. Effect: Able to present a different level of energy and aura, as well as fake the expression of an injured person.]

[The System consumed 2 million Experience Points and improved Beginner-level Faking Technique to Intermediate-level.]

[The System consumed 5 million Experience Points and improved Intermediate-level Faking Technique to Advanced-level.]

[Current effect: The effect of the Faking Technique can only be seen through by enemies that are at least two levels higher than the System.]

Fang Ning was speechless, "I see, you spend your experience points like how I spend money on my games…"

He started to look at the System Map.

On the map were three red dots at different corners of the event. From the live view, he could see that three of them were wearing black suits and were standing straight, but they were looking around anxiously.

Fang Ning didn't bother using his game book. He could tell these people were just normal humans from the size of the dot.

He had been serving justice with System Sir for so long that he could easily differentiate the level of criminality within an individual.

Those that were tagged as red were either in the middle of committing a crime or exposing his obsessions.

If in the middle of the red was a hint of purple and black; that represented the seriousness of their crimes. The strongest Fang Ning saw before was the bug monster. Before it died it turned into a black dot, an indicator of a destroyer.

These three red dots were mixed with a little purple, meaning to say their crime wasn't that serious. At most, they were just regular thieves.

From the way they were dressed, they were most likely someone's lackeys. They entered here wanting to steal something for themselves.

There was the famous Vigilante A present, however, as well as a large number of security personnel around, so the risk to reward ratio wasn't too attractive.

Besides, those herbs were just cheap stuff in the market, and it would be ready in a month's time. The most important thing around was the valley; it had strong vitality energy as well as that group of working mice.

There's no way they could steal the land away, though. As for the group of mice, their leader was the king of the mountain mice and it was more cunning than a human. Stealing them would be a bad idea.

Fang Ning was confused, but he didn't have any information, so he had no idea why they were here. He asked, "Just three useless pawns, do you really need to handle them yourself? I can just point them out and inform the securities to catch them. This way your chivalrous virtue won't be downgraded, right?"

The System replied, "Yes it won't be, but such a waste…"

Fang Ning heard the System Notification,

[The System released vital energy and attacked the thieves Chen Sankui, He Shuangqiao, and Liu Dashan.]



[The System gained 300 Experience Points.]

[The System gained 100 Experience Points.]

[The System gained 200 Experience Points.]

[The System gained a little morality and a little fame.]

Fang Ning was astonished, "You can't even let these mosquitoes go…"

The System replied, "These will add up."



Chen Sankui was acting like he was listening to Chairman Liu's speech, but was secretly moving towards one corner of the venue. There was a garden there, and in it was a herb that was growing well with its thorny bud pointing towards the venue.

He was dressed like a bodyguard with a straight face, so no one could tell he was a repeat offender. He was being ordered to come to this secret valley and steal some herbs.

He knew how great Vigilante A was and refused initially.

Nowadays, communication systems had improved greatly. In just half a year, all the QQ groups and Wechat messages had already been passed on between them. If they wanted to live then they'd never enter Qi City because that would get them killed. This was even more important for those who were committing crimes. For their own lives, they must completely avoid Qi City, not even walked past it.

If they were caught in the districts with normal security, they would still have their lives after the process. However, Vigilante A was famous for being cold-blooded and would kill anyone he caught. Plus, his background must be rock solid, because no organization had ever troubled him for the things he did.

However, the buyer gave him a reward of $3 million and hinted that he had his family's movements tracked. If he were to refuse, the buyer will kill all of them.

Chen Sankui was had been forced to accept the offer without much effort. From what he saw, in front of so many rich and famous people, Vigilante A wouldn't cause him too much trouble for stealing a worthless herb. Even if he were to try and make it hard for him, he wouldn't kill him on the spot.

Just as he was stretching his hand, he was nailed to the ground.

'Damn it, I'm caught,' Chen Sankui thought to himself, but was relieved, 'Luckily I never did anything too evil previously, and I'm still alive.'

The other two had a similar fate as him. He would see them soon.



The System said, "Done. You can inform security."

Fang Ning was speechless. Plus, he couldn't show off his skills so he wasn't interested in moving. He called Zheng Dao and gave him some orders…

After a moment, Zheng Dao returned and said the three had already been caught. All three of them were so anxious in explaining everything. Before the security personnel even asked them they were fighting to speak first.

Fang Ning wanted him to describe in detail.

Zheng Dao said, "The three men said that they were hired by the same secret person. The person had prepared a lucrative reward and threatened their lives. They weren't interested in the reward though. They already heard so much about Vigilante A so they knew that coming here will be jumping into their graves. But they believed that their crime wasn't that terrible so they will only get beaten up if they were caught by you, compared to dying if they refused the person. That was the reason why they decided to risk it."

Fang Ning listened carefully and became cautious, "Zheng Dao, bring Yellow Dog with you. Tell them something is happening back at our place and you need to leave now."

Zheng Dao replied, "Venerable One, you are still injured. We should leave together."

Fang Ning replied with righteousness, "There are too many powerless, normal people here. Since I already know something is wrong, how could I just leave them as they are? Now is not the time for us to leave in such a big group. It'll prevent that secret person from starting his move earlier."

Zheng Dao listened carefully and felt touched. He understood his personality and didn't continue to convince him. He walked around for a while before finding Yellow Dog Xue Ba surrounded by a few Poodles.

Zheng Dao said, "Master Xue, something is happening back at home. The Venerable One has asked us to go back now."

Yellow Dog Xue Ba heard him and felt wasted for a moment before replying with a nod, "Alright. If this is his order, then allow me to say goodbye to these few dog celebrities and we can leave."

Zheng Dao stared at Yellow Dog as he bid goodbye to those Poodles and invited them to come over to his house to play next week.

One of the white Labrador Retrievers didn't want him to leave, and looked at it with lustful eyes.

"Brother Xue, we are all locals. I can't wait for a week. I will ask my owner to bring me to your place tomorrow. Don't leave me outside your house now…"

Xue Ba gave them a manly look and replied, "Don't worry, I will personally come and greet you. The rest of you can also relax. Everyone will have their chances."

Zheng Dao was shocked by his actions. Master Xue recently mastered the Atmospheric Morality Technique and normally he was the gentleman of the dogs. How could he manage to start a zenana in secret with a straight face?

The Venerable One, himself, and Black Dog Brett were tricked by him…

Fang Ning wasn't aware of what had happened. If he knew he would have given him a beating.

He only saw how Zheng Dao was leaving with Yellow Dog and felt relieved. He had his Thousand-mile Assistance skill on standby so he could retreat anytime he wants. The others looked distanced from him so they shouldn't be the target of that secret man, so he wasn't worrying too much for them.



At the same time, on top of the wall on the other side of the valley, a group of people was looking down. Among them were two men and one woman. They were fair-skinned and seemed higher ranked than the rest.

The white lady was sensing something with her eyes closed, while the other two were standing by her side and protecting her.
