After Fang Ning delegated all the miscellaneous works to Zheng Dao and the System, he stole some leisure time again, and secretly played some games.
However, not long after he was idle, something happened. It made him so furious that he almost ruined his newly bought mechanical keyboard.
Currently, he was watching the tragic event happening below, through the System View.
He saw an ordinary mountain village in China that was located on a hill, which only had one long rugged mountain path that connected to a wrecked road outside.
One could imagine how remote and how much this place fell behind by looking at the inadequate transportation.
That was the fact. There were short adobe houses, and bumpy mud roads, which made the place look just like a village from the last century.
Nonetheless, a place like this that stood aloof from worldly affairs was suffering an unexpected calamity.
The entire village was dead silent. There were no sounds of barking dogs and crowing cocks that were usually heard in farm villages.
On a contrary, the dense smell of blood wafted from low, run-down courtyards.
Inside them,the elderly, women, very few adults, and children who stayed behind laid everywhere on the ground… Each of them laid on the ground with their faces facing up, and tiny holes were seen on their foreheads, whereby white flashed were vaguely emitted. It was exceptionally terrifying and odd.
"Damn it…" He clenched his fists together and asked in a low voice, "Who did this?"
"It should be that Brain-Devouring Parasite. From the System Map, I saw that it appeared here so I immediately teleported here but I was still a step behind, it escaped again." The System replied in a low voice too.
"It's all my fault. If I wasn't playing my games, perhaps they wouldn't suffer such a painful death…" Fang Ning held his head with his hands, and no longer had the mood to play.
In fact, tragedies like this had been occurring frequently ever since the Era of Vitality started.
When the Insect Devil raged, it was like this but was even more disastrous. Back then, countless Mutated Giant Yellowjackets raged at the southern mountain areas, and destroyed many walled cities.
Basically, he had nothing to do with it as he was only a spectator. When Vigilante A arrived, the tragedy had already occurred, and the only thing he needed to do was to kill the culprit.
Right now, if he were to know of this situation through news on the Internet, he would only be just like one of the normal audience. He would just sigh and would leave some comments.
After that, there was nothing, he still needed to do whatever he needed to do. At the end of the day, he was not a saint…
As for now, he strongly felt that if he could work hard a little, perhaps he could have prevent this misfortune from happening.
"If, if I had enough experience in battle, and cooperated with you by releasing the Divine Monument and Earthly Monument to seal that space, perhaps this culprit won't be able to escape…" Fang Ning still held his head as he murmured.
It was then when he heard the voice of a macaw.
"Boss, this has nothing to do with you. Big Brother Frog had sealed Heaven and Earth not long ago, it was an enormous task, and we won't be able to do it again for a short while.
The words of the Earthly Monument, the parrot, made Fang Ning feel less guilty. It made him feel rather grateful for it.
For all those who spoke for him, he remembered them. At once, he decided to treat these two sapient tools well in the future, and would not merely treat them as artifacts or tools.
After all, they were born from the Heavenly Axiom, had high sapience, and were far better than most humans.
Fang Ning was not a fellow who grieved over the passing of spring or the advent of autumn, he had follower the System everywhere, and had witnessed far too many horrendous scenes. Dead people were a common sight.
After the Era of Vitality began, it would be uncommon if there were no abnormal deaths…
As a matter of course, Vigilante A was not almighty, it was already very shocking to the others as he was able to nip most of the calamities in the bud.
Since the current situation was not his responsibility, he naturally recovered very quickly.
"Ling Yunzi is such a despicable man, he's really ruthless indeed, he's putting the pressure on us now!" As soon as Fang Ning recovered from his pain, he immediately guessed the truth.
Right after Fang Ning said that, he entered the Draconic Penitentiary.
Anderson had already been waiting on the side. Upon seeing his presence, they immediately welcomed him.
"Follow me to the education facility, I want to look at how you educate Ling Yunzi." Fang Ning uttered madly.
Although it was not his fault, he was still filled with anger.
Ever since he created the flying sword, his mobility greatly increased, and the name Eastern Pharos spread all over the world. Tragedies of innocent people getting killed during the Era of Vitality became less and less.
Besides, now that the System had learned the Diversion Technique, many powerful enemies were unable to escape too.
That being said, whatever happened today hit him in the face again.
Once again, this made him understand the theory. "it takes constant vigilance to avert evil, and while it's easy to capture thieves even a thousand miles away, it's difficult to guard against them for a thousand days".
Even though most people were clueless that he was, in fact, Vigilante A, there were still people who knew. That person was probably secretly sneering at him.
Fang Ning knew very well that he was one who thrived in hardships, and withered when left contented in his current situation.
If he was in the face of adversity, he could fight his way out and came out alive, whereas, in favorable circumstances, he would go downhill, and became lazy…
In actual fact, there were many people like this. Li Cunxu from the Later Tang Dynasty was one of the typical examples, whereby Ouyang Xiu specially wrote an essay on this.
"A country prospers through toil and hard work, idleness causes one to lose oneself, this is natural." Fang Ning recited this then said heavily, "Sir, you must work hard in the future, and must not remain idle. Don't stop forging ahead just because you think that you've mastered divine abilities, and have grasped the world."
"Uh…" The System somehow got lectured for no reason, it instantly felt dispirited. "Shouldn't you be telling this to yourself?"
"My body has been seized by you, of course I'll have to tell you." Fang Ning replied confidently.
"..." The System was speechless. After a brief moment, it rejoined, "There's no need for you to tell me then, I'll definitely not remain idle. That's because the whole purpose of my existence revolves around elevating myself, and strengthening myself, they're my interests. I'm an evolution of a game… Since when have I ever stopped forging ahead?"
"That's great." Fang Ning was extremely glad.
While they conversed, he led Anderson to the education facility.
The spacious education facility was thousands of square feet wide.
Eighty-one types of educational tools were set out on both sides of the room.
Leg vise, metal whip, soldering iron, brazier… All of them glimmered in cold light, and looked frightening. While they looked like ordinary items, they were the nemeses of souls.
Once entered, souls would be fearful; after suffering one session, each of them would turn a new leaf.
Nevertheless, there were still a small number of them who were stubborn. After all, there were always headstrong individuals in the world that could not be educated. For example, Aachman the four-headed snake monster, and Ling Yunzi.
Fang Ning took a glance, and was very satisfied. Evidently, this room was maintained carefully as every educational tool was brand new.
Subsequently, he snapped his fingers.
A short moment after, Ling Yunzi appeared in the center of the education facility. His eyes were shut, and he seemed to be meditating.
Fang Ning was contented. Although the System was a bit silly, it was hardworking, and it improved very quickly.
Right then, Ling Yunzi seemed to have noticed the presence of people around him, thus he opened his eyes.
"Hah, I'm here again? It looks like my Brain-Devouring Insect is not easy to deal with, am I right?" A smile could be seen on his face, which made him look just like a devil.
"Old servant, why is your mind so crooked? You treat human lives as if they're grass, are you even worthy of cultivating the Path?" Despite knowing that it was useless, Fang Ning subconsciously yelled at him.
"Haha, in the Great Path, there are three thousand doctrines, who told you that one who cultivates it can't kill? So what if they're humans? Since humans can kill, they can be killed. Enough with your nonsense, these instruments of torture are merely child's play to me." Ling Yunzi sneered.
"How stubborn!" Fang Ning was so mad that he gritted his teeth, he then instructed Anderson, "Xiao An, educate him well, let him know what love and righteousness means!"
"Yes, sir." Anderson pointed at a corner of the room, causing a metal whip to float up immediately, and moved to the front of Ling Yunzi.
…
Ling Yunzi bore all the hardships with equanimity, such that the eighty-one educational methods seem to have no effects on him.
"I'm very sorry, sir. I'm afraid that he has probably cultivated his soul to the Diamond Realm, and is impenetrable by anything. These educational methods were unable to show any results." Anderson felt shameful.
After all, their cultivation base was too shallow, it was hard for them to handle these powerhouse methods.
"Haha, that's all? Your methods are nothing compared to what I know." Ling Yunzi shook his head continuously.
"Damn it, aren't you afraid that I'll eradicate your soul?!" Fang Ning remarked ruthlessly.
"It'll be such a waste, it's much better if you make it into an artifact." The System quickly extinguished Fang Ning's raging fire, in case he wasted something good.
"Uh, stop affecting my emotions." Fang Ning was speechless.
"Haha, you can't eradicate me, I still have a backup, I can be born again after I die. What can you do? Let me tell you something else, once the parasite absorbs enough nutrients, it'll reproduce once after three months. Hahaha!"
It was right then when a "bang" sound was heard, and his laughs were brought to a halt.
Ling Yunzi looked like he had suffered a strong hit as he instant collapsed to the ground.
Followed by that, continuous "banging" sounded were heard.
Initially, it was as if nothing had happened, and he still remained a straight face. Some moments later, signs of pain could be seen on his face, and he began suffering in so much pain that he started to cry out loud.
"This is impossible, my soul is extremely strong, and it has reached the Diamond Realm. What method are you using, how can you make me feel so painful?"
"Hmph, now you know what pain feels like? Those humans killed by you felt more pain than this!" Fang Ning replied fiercely.
He did not have the hobby of watching one being educated, thus after knowing the whole story, and as Anderson looked at him respectfully, he left the educational facility with his head held high.
After he left, he immediately felt very glad. "Sir, I've blamed you wrongly. It turns out that at crucial moments, you're still on my side. Just now, you actually took it out on him for me, thank you so much.
"Actually, I should've thought about asking you to make a move. Even the Divine Monument and the Earthly Monument, the Heavenly Axiom artifacts that were exceptionally strong, had bruises after being beaten up by you. They suffered so much pain that they still hate you very much now. No matter how strong Ling Yunzi's soul is, it's impossible for him to win them."
"What are you talking about? I don't understand. I just want to take a look at his so-called Diamond Soul, and how is its material quality. What artifact should I make him into? When did I say that I was taking it out on him for you? Besides, what does your anger have to do with me? I'm not like humans, I won't get angry." The System sounded confused.
"Very well," Upon hearing it, Fang Ning was at a daze, he continued after pausing for a while, "I was about to reward you to thank you for the help but it seems like I was just imagining things, there's no reason for me to reward you then."
"Uh...actually, I was filled with righteous indignation just now, and I really can't watch it anymore, that's why I took the initiative to lecture that old man. Look at how nice I am to you, aren't you touched?" The System quickly said.
"It's too late, I'm not touched anymore." Fang Ning exited the Draconic Penitentiary without bothering it.
"Damn it, an honest system suffers losses." The System uttered angrily.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Anderson felt shameful.After all, their cultivation base was too shallow, it was hard for them to handle these powerhouse methods."Haha, that's all? Your methods are nothing compared to what I know." Ling Yunzi shook his head continuously."Damn it, aren't you afraid that I'll eradicate your soul?!" Fang Ning remarked ruthlessly."It'll be such a waste, it's much better if you make it into an artifact." The System quickly extinguished Fang Ning's raging fire, in case he wasted something good."Uh, stop affecting my emotions." Fang Ning was speechless."Haha, you can't eradicate me, I still have a backup, I can be born again after I die. What can you do? Let me tell you something else, once the parasite absorbs enough nutrients, it'll reproduce once after three months. Hahaha!"It was right then when a "bang" sound was heard, and his laughs were brought to a halt.Ling Yunzi looked like he had suffered a strong hit as he instant collapsed to the ground.Followed by that, continuous "banging" sounded were heard.Initially, it was as if nothing had happened, and he still remained a straight face. Some moments later, signs of pain could be seen on his face, and he began suffering in so much pain that he started to cry out loud."This is impossible, my soul is extremely strong, and it has reached the Diamond Realm. What method are you using, how can you make me feel so painful?""Hmph, now you know what pain feels like? Those humans killed by you felt more pain than this!" Fang Ning replied fiercely.He did not have the hobby of watching one being educated, thus after knowing the whole story, and as Anderson looked at him respectfully, he left the educational facility with his head held high.After he left, he immediately felt very glad. "Sir, I've blamed you wrongly. It turns out that at crucial moments, you're still on my side. Just now, you actually took it out on him for me, thank you so much."Actually, I should've thought about asking you to make a move. Even the Divine Monument and the Earthly Monument, the Heavenly Axiom artifacts that were exceptionally strong, had bruises after being beaten up by you. They suffered so much pain that they still hate you very much now. No matter how strong Ling Yunzi's soul is, it's impossible for him to win them.""What are you talking about? I don't understand. I just want to take a look at his so-called Diamond Soul, and how is its material quality. What artifact should I make him into? When did I say that I was taking it out on him for you? Besides, what does your anger have to do with me? I'm not like humans, I won't get angry." The System sounded confused."Very well," Upon hearing it, Fang Ning was at a daze, he continued after pausing for a while, "I was about to reward you to thank you for the help but it seems like I was just imagining things, there's no reason for me to reward you then.""Uh...actually, I was filled with righteous indignation just now, and I really can't watch it anymore, that's why I took the initiative to lecture that old man. Look at how nice I am to you, aren't you touched?" The System quickly said."It's too late, I'm not touched anymore." Fang Ning exited the Draconic Penitentiary without bothering it."Damn it, an honest system suffers losses." The System uttered angrily.
