"Uh, treasury? What's that? I'm an honest person, I don't have any treasury." Fang Ning strongly denied.
"Eh, how can you be like that, Fang Ning? You clearly said just now that your treasury is stored with many things." Flustered, Sir System said.
System Notification: [The System saw through the Host's lie, as it is too simple, intuition did not increase.]
"Uh, you have quite a good memory, eh." Since the System Notification had already appeared, Fang Ning had nothing else to say.
"Obviously, it has only been less than five minutes alright? If I want to remember things, I'll remember them even after five hundred or fifty thousand years, quickly tell me." Sir System said hastily.
"I didn't store many things, recently the ways of the world are in a mess, I asked Anderson to work with Zheng Dao to store a batch of cheap antique calligraphy drawings and some jewelleries." Fang Ning said helplessly.
"Oh, now I know, I'll ask Zheng Dao where he kept them… It's not safe to keep them outside, it'll be better if you keep it in my System Preservation Area." Sir System said seriously.
"Quickly tell me the answer then." Fang Ning asked.
"That answer is 'I want to become a normal divine eagle'." Sir System answered.
"Is this true? Don't fool me?" Fang Ning said doubtfully, "Is it really so simple?"
"You're accusing me for nothing again, I'm an honest system, when have I ever tricked you? I'm not like you, you just tried to hoodwink me again." Sir System said as it felt that it was wronged.
"Why?"
"It's very simple, based on the questioning pattern of River God that is spread online, isn't it always the third answer?" Sir System said firmly.
"Uh, I kind of think that this is unreliable."
"This is the answer I got based on my Master-level intuition." Sir System could only speak the truth after seeing that Fang Ning still did not trust it.
"I see, that should be correct then." Fang Ning was only relieved after hearing that reasoning, he secretly sent a telepathic message to Sky Eagle.
After Sky Eagle heard it, it was rather lost in the beginning as it somehow felt that it should not be so easy after all.
A brief moment later, its heart moved and a determined look could be seen on its face. At once, it said justly, "Senior River God, I neither want to be a golden divine eagle nor a silver divine eagle, I only want to be myself, a normal divine eagle, whereby I can protect my brothers in my clan and am worthy of heaven and earth."
"Hehe, very well, very well." Upon hearing that, River God laughed out loud. "Stay true to your initial aspiration, it will lead you to success. I wanted to know if you'll be tempted by the golden and silver axes and steer away from your initial aspiration, which is the real axe, this is the true essence of the River God's test!
"You pass."
"Thank you, mighty god." Sky Eagle teared right after, it also looked at Fang Ning with an inexplicable look of gratefulness.
'Without the help of the Venerable White Dragon, I couldn't have answered the question correctly.
'Though it sounded like a simple question, he was actually testing my heart.
'It wouldn't have worked if I just simply answered the third question.
'Sir River God has clearly stated that he was testing if I could stay true to its initial aspiration, whether I'd be tempted by the glorious days after being a god…
'He's truly a celestial god from the upper realm, I'll never be able to reach his profound level.'
A great inner monologue was played out in Sky Eagle's mind, it then rose up and said, "Sky Eagle acknowledges you as my master."
"Hehe, my pleasure, I'll have to ask you for favors in the future, my apprentice." River God smiled once again as he said while looking at Sky Eagle's broad back.
Sky Eagle felt a chill on its back then gritted its teeth and said, "Master, I'll definitely serve you well. If you'd like to go somewhere far, I'll be your legs."
"Not bad at all, it's uncommon for you to be so dutiful." River God quickly added, "Come, come, I was thinking of making an outdoor livestream, you'll follow me next time."
Fang Ning sighed to himself when he saw all of that. "Sigh, I can't believe that Brother Sky Eagle has become like those in the myths, such that it turned into a celestial god's mount in order to pave its cultivation path."
"How abominable, I don't have any mounts, yet this weak River God gotten himself one already." Sir System said in dissatisfaction.
Sir's perspective was different indeed.
"Uh, it's quite easy if you want a mount too." Fang Ning said all of a sudden.
"How easy?" Sir said in distress, "I can't bear to make our followers into mounts, how wasteful is that?"
"Isn't there an idle black tiger?" Fang Ning suddenly chuckled. "In the myths, there aren't many celestial beings who took black tigers as their mounts."
"Hehe, you're right, Mr. Rich Boss." Sir System laughed as it was contented.
Right then, Sky Eagle turned to say to Fang Ning, "Thank you for your recommendation, Venerable White Dragon, if you have any orders for me in the future, I'll certainly be of service at your disposal."
'Eh, once this guy breaks through its baseline and goes downhill, it is really fearsome.'
Fang Ning secretly sighed after hearing that.
"What did it mean?" Sir System asked as it was clueless.
"It is saying that, it doesn't matter if it's one or two, it will have to serve its duty after all, so it can carry us on its back in the sky too." Fang Ning said pitifully.
At the same time, he exclaimed to himself, 'Even Sky Eagle that has always been full of itself has to bow down during its cultivation path and let go of all self-respect, how tough must that be?'
'In fact, this is the reality, never think that your self-respect is so precious. The reality is not a novel, most people will have to lower themselves and bow down if they want to achieve success or move forward.'
Fang Ning was deep in his thoughts as he lamented.
"I've never seen you lower yourself before, you've always been ordering me about. Not only have I taught you how to cultivate, I've even practiced in your place, I've suffered much more than Sky Eagle's Master River God." Sir System was suddenly disgruntled.
"Sigh, get rid of this bad habit of yours, stop looking into my thoughts, it's bad for your physical and mental development." Fang Ning lectured it seriously.
"If I don't look into your thoughts occasionally, how will I know about your emotions and stop you from having an unhealthy mind?" Sir System said confidently.
"You're not doing it occasionally, you're doing it all the time." Fang Ning scorned.
"Enough with the blabbering, you'll have to learn from Sky Eagle and serve me faithfully as I'm your Master System." Sir System grabbed the opportunity to switch the topic again.
"Uh, I'm the brain, you're the body, when have you seen a body instructing the brain? Are you trying to mess up the overall situation?" Fang Ning immediately used his strategical weapon.
"You're repressing me with the overall picture again." Sir System said as in grievance.
"Uh, what are you talking about? I'm telling you, stop going onto nonsense websites and learn more correct thinking." Fang Ning scolded it again.
How dare this idiot try to rebel again? He must suppress it.
"Alright, Sky Eagle has already acknowledged a mighty god as its master, its strength will definitely improve drastically in the future and its path of godhood will be smooth, we have another powerful ally. Let me think, how can we increase the strengths of other allies. Oh right, the black dog and Cang Gongzi are still at Pond-level, I'll have to think for them. Tell me, am I easy?" Fang Ning quickly tried to make himself seem like he was wronged.
"You're very easy, you just utter a few words…" Sir System said in disdain.
"What do you know? Have you heard of this story, if your draw one line you get one dollar, but if you know where to draw lines you'll get 9999 dollars. I thought about finding a master for Sky Eagle and even brought it to River God, can you do that?" Fang Ning reprimanded.
"I can't, but I can be its master. The Atmospheric Morality Technique learned by the black and yellow dogs, Zheng Dao, and Cang Gongzi, I was the one who taught them." Sir System rebuked.
"I'd almost forgotten if you hadn't reminded me, the black dog's Atmospheric Morality Technique hasn't really advanced, am I right?" Fang Ning recalled something.
"Of course it hasn't advanced, it keeps thinking about looking for a wife, tell me, how can it improve at all?" Sir System said assertively.
"Eh, your technique doesn't allow anyone to look for wives? Will monks be very quick at cultivating it?"
"No, monks might not be fast at cultivating it, it's not a Buddhist technique. Only those with pure and just minds can cultivate it quickly."
"I knew this from the start, but Old Yellow Xue Ba advanced tremendously, it didn't stop it from looking for a wife, did it?"
"Hehe, you're always staying in the System Space so you lack observation. When Old Yellow and its wife the white dog are together, they're always reading and discussing literature, they never involve themselves in improper matters…"
"Tss...society, society, I'm convinced, Old Yellow is truly a righteous dog." Upon hearing that, Fang Ning was rapt in admiration.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
