"Great Azure Dragon, you're so nice. You've killed both serpents yet allowed me to claim credit for one…"
"I have always been fair, and will never take advantage of others."
"Yes, you speak the truth. You are righteous, and will never lie; not like my old dad, who may be reliable but is still unable to cultivate Morality. That must be because he lied to me too many times."
After the Two Great Serpents had been killed, its carcass was separated and taken in by Vigilante A. There had been many pieces of Interspatial Equipment appearing as of late, but the only one that was big enough to hold the few-thousand-meter long serpent belonged to Sir System.
The queer thing was, although the serpent had died, the mysterious mist had not yet dissipated. It was only in the morality that Sir System that a cloud of it was scattered.
Now, it was already spreading towards them, and maybe what it said before dying was true, fear would never disappear, and it is immortal. This mist was a symbol of that.
"Oh yes, Great Azure Dragon, can I borrow some of your space to store mine? We have agreed to let Chef Fang cook it for me. Your measurement was that each one is 7 200-meters long, and since I can eat 30m per meal, how many meals do I get? Damn, I don't have enough legs… Next time, I'll ask Father Chong to give me more legs."
Chong Daqing was flying beside Vigilante A, counting on its legs until its head was spinning…
"No need to calculate. It's 240."
"Great Azure Dragon, your mathematics skills is so good."
Fang Ning was speechless. 'Everyone uses kilos or by tons while calculating their amount of food; those are all units of mass. This is the first time I had seen someone use meters, and that's you, Chong Daqing.'
"Are those your three followers down there? We can take them along."
"Eh, why didn't they go further away? I had told them earlier to go far, far away."
"Oh, that's rare. To me, they may be female, but their sense of honor is much greater than many males."
Chong Daqing looked slightly embarrassed. "Actually, two of them are initially men, but I had used my Great Reversal of Heaven and Earth to change them to women because this investigating mission only allows females to participate."
Vigilante A said thoughtfully, "Is that the billion-dollar investigation mission that's always talked about by the Truth Department?"
Chong Daqing nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, that one. Thanks to you, I can get the highest reward."
The System said, "I, I think this is the first time I lost this much…"
Fang Ning assured it. "Don't be so petty. Daqing has helped us a lot in the past, and don't we have the Bodhi Flower Formation? With you, Daqing and Yellow Dog, it will be enough to face down an Inland-sea-level Powerhouse."
The System said, "All right, let's see it as nurturing a fighter."
Chong Daqing said again, "Now that I have a big snake for a meal, I don't need the money; can I give it all to you?"
Vigilante A immediately took up the offer. "Then I will accept it, thanks."
Fang Ning stared. "Sir, do you have any shame? You are a hero with the reputation level of Global Mythical Figure, yet you would cheat a teenager of its allowance. I don't know you."
The System said, "I'm gathering it up. With money, I can buy materials and farm experience more effectively. Then, I can protect those cute innocent kids better. Not to mention, Chong Daqing is a young child, and it may turn to bad ways with this much money…"
Fang Ning's eyes lit up. "Exactly, Sir. You're not even a year old yourself, so you especially should not possess this much money. Your bank account will be under my control from now on."
The System was speechless. "..."
Chong Daqing was not surprised by this. The Great Azure Dragon did love money after all. Even if it claimed to have lost its memory after descending, its true character obviously did not change, and was still similar to its Upper-Realm relatives.
The other had saved her, and promised her 2...240 meals. She did not have to worry about food over the next year.
Thinking back to when she had been in the Upper Realm, she had never had a year of good food since she was born.
In the Upper Realm, this sort of monstrous few-thousand-meter long demon was very terrifying, and was never on the upper-dwellers' menu.
However, there was an upper limit on the strength level in this world. No matter how big a beast was, it could only reach Top Lake-level strength with unguaranteed tyrannical fighting ability. It is only possible for it to exist like this.
Besides, before descending, her old dad had told her that those kingdoms under the rule of Celestial Clans have been showing poor production for over ten years now, especially Vitality agricultural produces which were decreasing each year, as well as poverty. That had been the reason he limited her food consumption.
...
Chong Daqing, lost in its thoughts, flew happily off to find Zhu Hongying and the two others who were facing the direction of Mount Huoshen.
"Hey, we can go home now. I told you before, as long as I, Daqing am here, there will be no mishaps. That great scary snake has become my backup food supply."
Zhu Hongying and her companions felt shaken. Of course, they knew who was the one wielding the weapon.
That scary Two-headed Serpent had been killed by Venerable Dragon God without him breaking a sweat?
They could still remember when Qi Mei caused havoc at the Spirit Valley. Back then, the Venerable One might have been at an advantage, but he had come up with so many mistakes that a Magical object was needed to defeat her.
That had been in the near past, and that two-headed snake was infinitely superior to her in strength and aura; and it was just killed like that?
Zhu Hongying was a senior member of the Association of Spirit Kings, and she knew exactly how scary that serpent was.
She immediately felt in awe of her mentor Bodhisattva, who was righteous and never selfish and as such got to know Venerable Dragon God through a fight.
For those slightly unforgiving ones, they would have tried to avenge their evil subordinates who were killed by Vigilante A, with the excuse "Even if they are evil, we should not let anyone clean up for us", causing both sides to become enemies.
Ma Da and Lu Er were currently cowering, refusing to get on Vigilante A's Flying Sword.
There was no way he could know their shame.
If this man -- who had chased them and their brothers into a corner -- knew that they had become female, that would be such a dishonor, much more uncomfortable than getting a big slap…
"What are you two cowering for? The Great Azure Dragon is a good person brimming with Morality, and good people don't have to worry." Chong Daqing said with confusion.
"Humph," Zhu Hongying glared at her two good friends. "These two must have been secretly up to no good. These three brothers may be evil but cowardly, naughty but not stopping regardless. It's normal for them to be scared of Venerable One."
Ma Da was speechless; Lu Er said with bravado, "Big Sis Boss, please ask Lord Insect Prime to remove the spell. The Venerable Dragon God and us know each other, and how are we going to meet others like this?"
Chong Daqing then remembered. It pulled out the white jade pig sculpture from its Space Ring, muttering some words.
And Fang Ning, looking through the System's viewpoint, nearly hid into the blacksmith's forge with surprise when he saw, in the light of day, the two women turn into men.
It was written correctly here, because the Legendary Esoteric Ability, Spirit Gaze, now had the perpetual True Vision effect, which, to the System, was equal to seeing it in the light of day. That Confusing Mist was useless here.
Now he knew why the System used those six words, because to it, there was no difference between night and day…
"That is a top wicked spell. Oh yes, about that new ability, Morality commanding Respect. Can it negate that spell?" Fang Ning, after some thought, asked quickly.
The System replied, "No problem. Why are you worrying about this so much? You can't be turned into a woman anyway."
Fang Ning was relieved. "Well, that's reassuring."
The System continued, " The Dragonization Ability has been upgraded to Legendary level, and you have passed the beginner level of evolving the Dragon form. Now if you want to turn, you can only turn into a female dragon."
Fang Ning was speechless and immediately waved his hand. "F*ck… you had better not talk about this with me, girl System, or I'll go mad."
The System said, "Then I won't, but I have to remind you, I won't object to you calling me Little System, but I don't have a gender, so girl System doesn't exist. That bloody book has told you many times."
After a while, Vigilante A sent them back to Spirit Valley, and told Chong Daqing that if it wanted to eat, it can go look for Chef Fang; he would make some snake broth for it.
Chong Daqing nodded and bid farewell to Vigilante A.
...
Time passed like the wind.
Three days later…
"Eh, this person has registered using another identity?" Fang Ning, having heard Zheng Dao's report, was astounded, yet had the feeling that he was in the right direction.
He was following the author of the nearly 2.5 million-word novel. If his gut feeling was right, then he was probably connected to the great serpent.
That was not his mind going off on a tangent; there was enough evidence for him to make his inference.
He had spent most of the year cultivating, and according to his precious game Book, his spiritual power had reached Bucket Level.
What he could say was that evolving his dragon form with the help of Sir has been successful. The double-S qualification Sir provided was indeed amazing!
His speed in Cultivation was now as fast as a rocket. No wonder Azure Mountain needed very highly-qualified students. Those who were even slightly weaker had no chance.
Having seen those cultivating at a fast rate, he would look at those doing it at a slower pace…
Comparing the two, it was like investing. Invest $100 in two people, and one would produce $1000 in returns while the other would produce only $80. Investing in the latter would only result in loss. Who would do that then?
His Bucket-level Spirit could still be swayed reading that novel, entering a state of horror and fear. Obviously, this guy had learned some mysterious fear-inducing rules.
"Find out that guy for me, dead or alive." Fang Ning ordered Zheng Dao with a murderous look.
He was using a bit of Sir's power, and was in fact using official means to avenge a personal grudge.
After all, he was taken advantage of in no trivial way.
Soon, the Dragon God Hunting Warrant quietly appeared everywhere, causing rumors.
"Wanted: a certain horror novelist. I heard that he had been bad for so long that the Dragon God himself was furious."
"The Dragon God reads novels?"
"Not him, probably the Venerable White Dragon."
The Truth Department took emergency action. A person taken seriously by the Pharos of the East must be a very powerful demon indeed.
A few days ago, the mission report sent in by the Association of Spirit Kings had Ren Ruofeng deeply shaken.
This was despite the fact that he had sensed and predicted it, and had already made the necessary early preparations.
However, there were a myriad of rules that constrained him from causing an all-out war, since the Truth Department was no global organization.
That Snake Demon must have secretly planned out such a grand setting.
Those demons and deviants, after learning of modern technology, had started using them in many different ways. This one, meanwhile, had set his mind on the Ring of Fire.
What would those other demons, with someone already established as an example, do now?
The established Hollywood directors had already filmed their fair share of disaster movies!
They did not need to rack their brains much; they just needed to swipe through them to find (n+1) ways to torture the Earth.
The Earth itself was actually very powerful, and as Sir System said, only an Ocean-level Powerhouse -- or higher -- could harm it.
But for the people living on its crust? They are all vulnerable.
To Earth, many of the seemingly destructive disasters are only just minor skin wounds, but to the earthlings, they are fatal and can wipe them out.
For example, those nuclear weapons stashed away may not be able to destroy the Earth, but it could easily obliterate the world as humans know it…along with the humans themselves.
....
The next-door neighbor of Fang Ning's true identity went home happily, a brand new alien notebook from the technology market in his arms.
His posted writings on an alternate account had had good response, and he felt that his great days were just ahead.
"Zhao Han. We've found you. Please follow us..."
He had just opened the door when more than ten buff, muscular men surrounded him. He nearly dropped his notebook in surprise.
All those men possessed Basin-level strength, and formed a really intimidating scene.
This was someone the Venerable Dragon God himself had ordered to arrest, and there had been repeated proof that this guy was a loser-level Superpowered Individual, just an ordinary Rice-level individual, not even a Mug-level one.
The Truth Department had initially wanted to send out 7 Pond-level masters, and then invite Venerable One in to put him down.
Now, however, they only wanted to know what secret this weakling held. Understand it, then they could have something to report to Venerable Dragon God.
"Why catch me? I have done nothing wrong! My nice life was just about to start." Zhao Han held his head in his hands, frozen on the spot.
"Use those words when you are inside. Cooperate with us humbly. You are an educated man who knows how we operate."
Zhao Han's eyes lit up, and like a drowning man clutching at a piece of straw, said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes. I've had re-education. I've done something honorable too. That time Leader Mo led a team to round up and slay the demon spiders, I was part of it. I even sustained serious injuries, but the Dragon God saved me."
"That's the Ven…" One of the men were about to speak, but fell silent at another man's glare.
"Come with us, and tell us all about your experience starting from half a year ago. Believe us, we will never convict an innocent man."the Chinese version of in the light of day has six words
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Great Azure Dragon, you're so nice. You've killed both serpents yet allowed me to claim credit for one…"
"I have always been fair, and will never take advantage of others."
"Yes, you speak the truth. You are righteous, and will never lie; not like my old dad, who may be reliable but is still unable to cultivate Morality. That must be because he lied to me too many times."

Back then, the Venerable One might have been at an advantage, but he had come up with so many mistakes that a Magical object was needed to defeat her.That had been in the near past, and that two-headed snake was infinitely superior to her in strength and aura; and it was just killed like that?Zhu Hongying was a senior member of the Association of Spirit Kings, and she knew exactly how scary that serpent was.She immediately felt in awe of her mentor Bodhisattva, who was righteous and never selfish and as such got to know Venerable Dragon God through a fight.For those slightly unforgiving ones, they would have tried to avenge their evil subordinates who were killed by Vigilante A, with the excuse "Even if they are evil, we should not let anyone clean up for us", causing both sides to become enemies.Ma Da and Lu Er were currently cowering, refusing to get on Vigilante A's Flying Sword.There was no way he could know their shame.If this man -- who had chased them and their brothers into a corner -- knew that they had become female, that would be such a dishonor, much more uncomfortable than getting a big slap"What are you two cowering for? The Great Azure Dragon is a good person brimming with Morality, and good people don't have to worry." Chong Daqing said with confusion."Humph," Zhu Hongying glared at her two good friends. "These two must have been secretly up to no good. These three brothers may be evil but cowardly, naughty but not stopping regardless. It's normal for them to be scared of Venerable One."Ma Da was speechless; Lu Er said with bravado, "Big Sis Boss, please ask Lord Insect Prime to remove the spell. The Venerable Dragon God and us know each other, and how are we going to meet others like this?"Chong Daqing then remembered. It pulled out the white jade pig sculpture from its Space Ring, muttering some words.And Fang Ning, looking through the System's viewpoint, nearly hid into the blacksmith's forge with surprise when he saw, in the light of day, the two women turn into men.It was written correctly here, because the Legendary Esoteric Ability, Spirit Gaze, now had the perpetual True Vision effect, which, to the System, was equal to seeing it in the light of day. That Confusing Mist was useless here.Now he knew why the System used those six words, because to it, there was no difference between night and day"That is a top wicked spell. Oh yes, about that new ability, Morality commanding Respect. Can it negate that spell?" Fang Ning, after some thought, asked quickly.The System replied, "No problem. Why are you worrying about this so much? You can't be turned into a woman anyway."Fang Ning was relieved. "Well, that's reassuring."The System continued, " The Dragonization Ability has been upgraded to Legendary level, and you have passed the beginner level of evolving the Dragon form. Now if you want to turn, you can only turn into a female dragon."Fang Ning was speechless and immediately waved his hand. "F*ck you had better not talk about this with me, girl System, or I'll go mad."The System said, "Then I won't, but I have to remind you, I won't object to you calling me Little System, but I don't have a gender, so girl System doesn't exist. That bloody book has told you many times."After a while, Vigilante A sent them back to Spirit Valley, and told Chong Daqing that if it wanted to eat, it can go look for Chef Fang; he would make some snake broth for it.Chong Daqing nodded and bid farewell to Vigilante A....Time passed like the wind.Three days later"Eh, this person has registered using another identity?" Fang Ning, having heard Zheng Dao's report, was astounded, yet had the feeling that he was in the right direction.He was following the author of the nearly 2.5 million-word novel. If his gut feeling was right, then he was probably connected to the great serpent.That was not his mind going off on a tangent; there was enough evidence for him to make his inference.He had spent most of the year cultivating, and according to his precious game Book, his spiritual power had reached Bucket Level.What he could say was that evolving his dragon form with the help of Sir has been successful. The double-S qualification Sir provided was indeed amazing!His speed in Cultivation was now as fast as a rocket. No wonder Azure Mountain needed very highly-qualified students. Those who were even slightly weaker had no chance.Having seen those cultivating at a fast rate, he would look at those doing it at a slower paceComparing the two, it was like investing. Invest $100 in two people, and one would produce $1000 in returns while the other would produce only $80. Investing in the latter would only result in loss. Who would do that then?His Bucket-level Spirit could still be swayed reading that novel, entering a state of horror and fear. Obviously, this guy had learned some mysterious fear-inducing rules."Find out that guy for me, dead or alive." Fang Ning ordered Zheng Dao with a murderous look.He was using a bit of Sir's power, and was in fact using official means to avenge a personal grudge.After all, he was taken advantage of in no trivial way.Soon, the Dragon God Hunting Warrant quietly appeared everywhere, causing rumors."Wanted: a certain horror novelist. I heard that he had been bad for so long that the Dragon God himself was furious.""The Dragon God reads novels?""Not him, probably the Venerable White Dragon."The Truth Department took emergency action. A person taken seriously by the Pharos of the East must be a very powerful demon indeed.A few days ago, the mission report sent in by the Association of Spirit Kings had Ren Ruofeng deeply shaken.This was despite the fact that he had sensed and predicted it, and had already made the necessary early preparations.However, there were a myriad of rules that constrained him from causing an all-out war, since the Truth Department was no global organization.That Snake Demon must have secretly planned out such a grand setting.Those demons and deviants, after learning of modern technology, had started using them in many different ways. This one, meanwhile, had set his mind on the Ring of Fire.What would those other demons, with someone already established as an example, do now?The established Hollywood directors had already filmed their fair share of disaster movies!They did not need to rack their brains much; they just needed to swipe through them to find n+1 ways to torture the Earth.The Earth itself was actually very powerful, and as Sir System said, only an Ocean-level Powerhouse -- or higher -- could harm it.But for the people living on its crust? They are all vulnerable.To Earth, many of the seemingly destructive disasters are only just minor skin wounds, but to the earthlings, they are fatal and can wipe them out.For example, those nuclear weapons stashed away may not be able to destroy the Earth, but it could easily obliterate the world as humans know italong with the humans themselves.....The next-door neighbor of Fang Ning's true identity went home happily, a brand new alien notebook from the technology market in his arms.His posted writings on an alternate account had had good response, and he felt that his great days were just ahead."Zhao Han. We've found you. Please follow us..."He had just opened the door when more than ten buff, muscular men surrounded him. He nearly dropped his notebook in surprise.All those men possessed Basin-level strength, and formed a really intimidating scene.This was someone the Venerable Dragon God himself had ordered to arrest, and there had been repeated proof that this guy was a loser-level Superpowered Individual, just an ordinary Rice-level individual, not even a Mug-level one.The Truth Department had initially wanted to send out 7 Pond-level masters, and then invite Venerable One in to put him down.Now, however, they only wanted to know what secret this weakling held. Understand it, then they could have something to report to Venerable Dragon God."Why catch me? I have done nothing wrong! My nice life was just about to start." Zhao Han held his head in his hands, frozen on the spot."Use those words when you are inside. Cooperate with us humbly. You are an educated man who knows how we operate."Zhao Han's eyes lit up, and like a drowning man clutching at a piece of straw, said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes. I've had re-education. I've done something honorable too. That time Leader Mo led a team to round up and slay the demon spiders, I was part of it. I even sustained serious injuries, but the Dragon God saved me.""That's the Ven" One of the men were about to speak, but fell silent at another man's glare."Come with us, and tell us all about your experience starting from half a year ago. Believe us, we will never convict an innocent man."the Chinese version of in the light of day has six words
