"Almsgiver Fang, a demon can achieve salvation as soon as it gives up evil. Why not give this sinful demon a chance to live? My Paradise Realm can guide people to be good. Why not let this demon convert to the paradise and be bound to it? In the future, it will definitely not be allowed to come out and do evil again."
In a desert in northwest China, the winds howled and the low bushes smelled of ash. It was a scene of gloomy vitality.
A cruel and merciless wolf demon coated in the stench of blood had just transformed into its human form. Its fur had not faded yet.
Currently, it was hiding behind a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, staring coldly at Vigilante A, who was floating mid-air.
After its transformation, it had become so hungry that it ate three innocent passers-by.
Fang Ning's morality died and came back to life. This was the third time today…
Every time Sir System wanted to kill an evildoer, this fella would jump in and take the demon away. This was basically palming things off him!
He suppressed his temper and argued with the demonic monk, "Demon Lord Zhi Nan, you are a Buddhist. Don't you think you're a little too shameless by thinking this demon can achieve salvation as soon as it gives up evil? This demon eats people for no reason and should be killed! Do you want to take this demon to Paradise? Fine! But let it eat this sword first!"
As he spoke, he issued a secret code. Sir System took control of a dragon-shaped sword energy and rushed at the wolf demon.
"Save me, Master!" the wolf demon said in fear.
Zhi Nan smiled lightly and pressed his thumb to his middle finger. A thick black gas flashed across, and the dragon-shaped sword energy died without a cause.
"Almsgiver Fang is being stubborn again. May the Buddha grant pardon for this one's sins, I'll take this wolf demon away."
After finishing speaking, he tossed his black robe. The wolf demon behind him showed surprise on its face, but stopped abruptly. Then, its entire body faded to gray in the wind.
Afterward, Zhi Nan disappeared as well...
"My experience points…" the System wept in the cold wind.
Fang Ning was both angry and speechless, "Stop looking. He's long gone. That demon really is cunning! None of those we met in the past dared to rob us of our kills!"
The System said seriously, "This is all your fault. You only know how to play games and read novels all day, and never help me farm. Now that a V10 is here, we can't even beat him. He's stealing our monsters every day. What do we do? I think we're doomed this time…"
Listening to this, Fang Ning felt slightly guilty.
Sigh, that damn Zhi Nan. He really did have the demeanor of a Boss. He instantly hit his weak spot.
'It was not like he's angry with you, and he's not plotting anything. It's just that every time Vigilante A discovers a demon, he'll suddenly appear and snatch it away first…'
If this continued, how would Vigilante A progress?
The demons from before should have also thought of this before.
However, they could not stand in front of Vigilante A, and they also did not have the ability to move out of thin air. Vigilante A had high mobility, so it was impossible for them to steal his kill.
However, although this Zhi Nan's strength was suppressed by the Heavenly Axiom on the same level as the System, he had many tactics which allowed him to easily achieve what he wanted. As expected of a Big Boss.
The key was to steal people's kills. He was obviously a Demon Lord, but he wantonly distorted Buddhist principles and talked rubbish to him with evil intentions to deliberately make him angry. If this could be tolerated, what could be called intolerable!
It was like stealing a Boss in a game and then mocking you for not being smart enough. How could anyone bear it?
Fang Ning finally felt a great deal of pressure. This Zhi Nan was the first, but there would definitely be more in the future. Sir System's traditional way of obtaining experience needed to evolve.
Did you really think Master Fang would be unable to do anything?
A cold light flashed across Fang Ning's eyes. He was genuinely angry!
He coldly said to the System, "Let's go home and do our homework! We'll duke it out with him, we won't necessarily lose!"
The System was satisfied with his, "Mr. Richman Host, you can do it. I believe in you!"
Thus, Vigilante A flew back to his home in the cold northern wind.
His figure was projected to the ground under the setting sun and pulled a long shadow, looking particularly bleak.
...
After he left, several Greater Rats emerged from the desert, exchanged looked, and drilled back underground.
Before long, several high-level officials in a meeting in the underground Greater Rat City, in a certain Control Center were informed of this news.
Sitting there was the Elder Ancestor Bai Yunsheng, General Nie Yuan, the Information Central Group Leader Bai Shixin, the Military Affairs Minister Bai Shifu, and others.
After receiving this piece of news, everyone else except Bai Shixin, whose face was calm, broke out in chuckles, looking particularly happy.
"That Vigilante A has caused us no small amount of trouble. Now he has finally hit a wall. The Elder Ancestor was wise and foreseen this long ago. With that Demon Lord Zhi Nan around now, Vigilante A's Path of Heavenly Punishment has been blocked. It'll definitely disappear in the future." Nie Yuan flattered.
The Elder Ancestor chuckled lightly but did not seem particularly pleased.
Perhaps in his eyes now, Vigilante A was just a weak buffoon, and was no longer worthy to be compared with him.
Bai Shixin remained silent, as if that person was completely unrelated to him.
However, Nie Yuan did not let him go. He pointed out, "I heard the General used to have a lot of enmity with Vigilante A. Now that you've heard of this news, you should be happy instead. Why are you so indifferent?"
Bai Shixin did not say anything. However, Bai Shifu, who was sitting beside him, became grumpy and said, "Runt, what do you mean?"
Nie Yuan said carelessly, "Nothing in particular. I'm being happy on the Generals behalf. Why is Minister Shifu so agitated?"
The Elder Ancestor started to reprimand, "Crossing verbal swords? We've only come this far. Now is not the time to sit back and fight amongst yourselves!"
The quarrel quickly subsided. Everyone acted calmly as if nothing had happened.
At this time, the Elder Ancestor said kindly to Bai Shixin, "Shixin, how is the development of that Information Center progressing?"
Bai Shixin said unhurriedly, "Reporting back to the Elder Ancestor, the development is progressing smoothly. The second phase of the project is already well underway. The human engineers eat and drink delicious delicacies with us and enjoy themselves very much, so they all willingly work overtime every day until 3 am. Maybe we could keep them and use them to train our own engineers in the future."
The Elder Ancestor nodded, "That sounds good. Your keen eyes have reminded me that right now, the humans above ground are in a panic. It's a good opportunity for us to absorb various talents on a large scale."
He paused, looked around the crowd, and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, Nie Yuan. You must be cautious to recruit obedient… no, scientific people. We Greater Rats do not raise useless people.
Nie Yuan rushed to accept the task, a hint of pride on his face.
Bai Shixin had no abnormalities and remained calm and peaceful.
The Elder Ancestor continued, "Since we want to absorb talents from above ground, we must quickly build the Chinese parasol tree. Shixin, go to one of our spare bases and rebuild it as much as possible to meet their human aesthetic standards. Since the Information Center is progressing smoothly, find a time to hand it over to your Deputy. Deal with this important matter first."
Bai Shixin secretly sneered in his heart, but he agreed outwardly.
Ever since his wife returned, his mood calmed and he returned to his senses. That old coot's previous and current series of actions only had one motive, and that was to force himself...
With his strength, suppressing himself was as easy as turning over his hand. However, he would not act without a suitable reason, because it would affect his ambition of ascending.
That old coot was a cautious and careful person. He would not leave any hidden dangers regarding ascension.
It was common for normal people to kill others. Their slate could be washed clean by casually charging them with a few crimes.
However, to extraordinaires, it was a lifetime stain. You could ignore the people below you, but how could you ignore the Heavens, Saints, Buddha, and Demons Lords?
With this stain, your position would be unstable, and you could be challenged at any time.
However, he had to find a suitable method to make that old coot get caught in his own web...
He already had the method. It all depended on when it would take effect. He would just have wait until that day came.
...
In Vigilante A's farm villa.
Vigilante A sat on the bed, rarely not practicing.
The System and Fang Ning were in a rare formal meeting.
The topic of the meeting was naturally how to overthrow the shameless V10 player, the Demon Lord Zhi Nan."
Fang Ning said, "The beloved game book is still farming in that Paradise. Judging from that, there must be something odd in it."
The System said, "What do you mean odd?"
Fang Ning responded, "Since the Demon Lord Zhi Nan has already stopped us from carrying out Heavenly Punishment, there's no reason not to stop the game book that's hitting the demons he rehabilitated. What could be the reason preventing him from stopping it?"
The System said, "What's the reason?"
Fang Ning said, "I'm convinced that he's fishing. Think about it. He stopped us from farming those demons outside, but deliberately indulged the precious game book. He's obviously implying that we can farm freely in the Paradise Realm and is trying to lure us in."
He did not know that everything he guessed now was absolutely correct.
The System said, "You're right, Mr. Rich Boss."
Fang Ning pondered, and a cold light flashed across his eyes, "In that case, I suspect the demons he took today would definitely be sent to Paradise. He's trying to bring all of the evildoers in this world into his own hands. If we really do practice the Path of Heavenly Punishment, we can't not go in."
The System agreed, "Mr. Rich Boss is wise."
"Stop kissing my *ss. We've been here for half a day and it's still just me answering my own questions… Forget it, I don't have time to banter with you." Fang Ning was extremely speechless, "We'll give up on serving justice for now and immediately go collect any and all information related to this demon lord. We have a lot of contacts with the people of the Upper Realm, and most of our relations are good. Now's the time to use them."
The System did not have a shred of hesitation. Vigilante A flew straight out the window.
For three days in a row, many people were surprised that the Pharos of the East did not appear over their heads as usual.
This added a little more panic to the already restless public.
At this moment, a ballad about Paradise quietly spread.
"Paradise, Paradise, where no disaster will befall.
"Give up your flesh, and feel cool and refreshed.
"Surrender your soul to Paradise, and never toil again.
…"
Vigilante A seemed to be unaware of this. He only followed through with his plan and searched for the relevant figures.
Bodhisattva Spirit King, the Third Son of Dragon Clan, the Dragon Carp, the great green insect, Cang Gongzi…
Anderson, Lei Tian...
From their mouths, the image of the Demon Lord Zhi Nan slowly became three-dimensional, and his information became more complete.
Fang Ning always believed in the saying 'Plan before you act, step back to be safe'. The reason why was taking such great pains now was that he had made up his mind to beat this Zhi Nan to the ground.
He really was infuriated, but the anger had never gotten to his head before, so he would never put himself in danger and enter the Paradise Realm. That Zhi Nan repeatedly used his tactics, making it obvious that the moment he entered, he would become a dead fish.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

If we really do practice the Path of Heavenly Punishment, we can't not go in."The System agreed, "Mr. Rich Boss is wise.""Stop kissing my *ss. We've been here for half a day and it's still just me answering my own questions Forget it, I don't have time to banter with you." Fang Ning was extremely speechless, "We'll give up on serving justice for now and immediately go collect any and all information related to this demon lord. We have a lot of contacts with the people of the Upper Realm, and most of our relations are good. Now's the time to use them."The System did not have a shred of hesitation. Vigilante A flew straight out the window.For three days in a row, many people were surprised that the Pharos of the East did not appear over their heads as usual.This added a little more panic to the already restless public.At this moment, a ballad about Paradise quietly spread."Paradise, Paradise, where no disaster will befall."Give up your flesh, and feel cool and refreshed."Surrender your soul to Paradise, and never toil again."Vigilante A seemed to be unaware of this. He only followed through with his plan and searched for the relevant figures.Bodhisattva Spirit King, the Third Son of Dragon Clan, the Dragon Carp, the great green insect, Cang GongziAnderson, Lei Tian...From their mouths, the image of the Demon Lord Zhi Nan slowly became three-dimensional, and his information became more complete.Fang Ning always believed in the saying 'Plan before you act, step back to be safe'. The reason why was taking such great pains now was that he had made up his mind to beat this Zhi Nan to the ground.He really was infuriated, but the anger had never gotten to his head before, so he would never put himself in danger and enter the Paradise Realm. That Zhi Nan repeatedly used his tactics, making it obvious that the moment he entered, he would become a dead fish.
