Chapter 523: New Colonizers
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Qi City, Vigilante A’s farm villa.
“I’m Saoirse, a servant of the alchemy lab in Liu Yun Palace from the upper realm. Thank you for taking me in, Mr. Vigilante. Currently, I’ve completely lost my magical powers so I can’t repay your kindness, I’ll serve you in the future to thank you for your saving grace.”
The fellow lady saved by Nan Feng the Devil Vigilante and Brett the black dog lowered her head and said in a sheepishly shy manner as she thanked the handsome Vigilante A.
After Brett heard that, it immediately gave a scornful look to Nan Feng, whereby the meaning behind it was crystal clear.
Upon hearing him, Nen Feng felt as if he was. .h.i.t by ten thousand tons of steel. He furrowed his brows without saying a word, then staggered his way out.
“Brett, I think Brother Nan doesn’t look very right, go take a look at him.” Seeing what had happened, Vigilante A instructed.
“Yes, owner.” Brett stretched its black legs out to give its regards, then wagged its tail and followed behind the Devil Vigilante.
“Mr. Vigilante, what’s wrong with my savior?” Saoirse widened her eyes, she looked puzzled.
“Oh, I suppose his head illness is acting up again, he probably wants to get some air outside.” Sir blabbered away with a serious face.
“I see. I happen to have skimmed through alchemy, so I carry some remedies for headaches and fever with me, I’ll pa.s.s them to my savior now.” Saoirse mentioned with her head lowered.
“That’s very kind of you, I see you’re a person with grat.i.tude. Bring this pill over to Nan Feng for him to consume too.” Vigilante A nodded then pa.s.sed a golden yellow pill to her.
Saoirse’s eyes glowed, she received the pill respectfully, looking like a timid young lady. She moved backward out of the living hall, then turned to chase after Nan Feng.
“Savior, wait a minute.” She took choppy little steps as she chased from behind.
When Nan Feng heard her, he instantly looked elated, he turned to look at this fellow of his who came from the same hometown.
Saoirse moved in front of him and fixed her gaze on him.
All of a sudden, Nan Feng felt a little embarra.s.sed, he subconsciously looked down.
“Just now, the vigilante said that your head illness is acting up, so you’re here to get some fresh air. Although I’m not talented, I have some knowledge in medical skills, I believe you’re not having a head illness now but illness from your heart.” She suddenly stated in a stern manner, which was unlike the reserved lady that she was just now.
Nan Feng was startled.
“In judging whether a male is a true, stalwart man, the first thing to consider is his character and his moral quality. The second thing to consider is his ability and his competence. The third would be his learning and his martial arts abilities. What does his facial appearance have to do with anything? Savior, you’re full of righteousness, can’t you even see through this?” Saoirse frowned as she uttered those words.
Once again, Nan Feng was dumbfounded by her, he lifted his head slowly and stared at the gentle yet firm-looking face.
Despite the fact that she was a feeble lady, despite the fact that she was weak, at this very instant, he felt that she was much taller than him.
A good while later, he slowly voiced, “You’re right, just some time ago, after I succeeded in my cultivation, I thought about changing my appearance while I was reshaping my body. However, somebody told me that our bodies, to every hair and bit of skin, are received by us from our parents, we must not injure or wound them, thus I gave up that thought. From that time onwards, I’ve always had this regret but now I finally understand that it is not a hideous appearance this is fearful, but a heart with wrong intentions.”
Saoirse gestured with an affirmative look.
“Let us go, black dog, we’ll continue to fulfill the remaining 9999 good deeds.” Right after he said that, with unwavering looks, he waved his hand to call the black dog, then walked with big strides.
“d.a.m.n it, though you said such nice words, you’re still judging me by my appearance. Remember, my name is Brett, not black dog, even my owner won’t call me that.” Brett growled angrily, then wagged its tail and followed him.
Nan Feng continued walking without turning back as he replied, “I get it, black dog, quickly follow me.”
Looking at her savior getting further away, not long after, Saoirse expressed, “Having said that, I still prefer being with the vigilante who’s handsome, powerful, and wealthy…”
As soon as she said that, she walked towards the villa excitedly.
Fortunately, Nan Feng’s hearing ability was not as well as the Sir’s, or he would certainly die from vomiting blood.
Back at the villa’s living hall, she saw the expressionless Vigilante A conducting his powers with his eyes shut, on the couch. Right away, she was somewhat upset and downcasted. She could not help but thought that it would be great if this tall, rich, and handsome had a heart similar to the ugly, dark, and poor…
“You’re back. Go look for Butler Zheng, he’ll make arrangements for you. When you regain your magical powers, you’ll have to go to work, remember that you must support yourself.” Vigilante A opened his eyes and noted plainly.
‘h.e.l.l with that, there are plenty of idiots wanting to support me.’ Saoirse thought to herself hatefully but the look on her face was still ever so gentle, she lowered her head and responded, “Yes, Mr. Vigilante, I’ll remember your teachings well.”
“Alright, you’re dismissed, I’m going to continue my cultivation.” Vigilante A shut his eyes again.
Saoirse left angrily but she did not presume that there was something wrong with her charm as she had done her homework before coming here. Vigilante A was unlike a True Dragon at all, he was more like a robot, who did not have the slightest interest in the opposite gender.
Nonetheless, it did not matter to her. Since she could not utilize that advantage of her gender, she would manage with her true abilities…
While she wondered, she found Zheng Dao, who was conversing with someone else on the internet.
Zheng Dao closed his QQ window, then got up to welcome her, and poured her some tea.
“The Venerable One has already messaged me about you, so I roughly understand the situation. I’ll first arrange your food and accommodation, please come with me.” Zheng Dao greeted her.
“Thank you for your hard work, sir.”
“You’re welcome, Miss Xing.” Zheng Dao replied courteously.
Zheng Dao was a great man as well but when compared with Vigilante A, the difference between them was like a diamond on Earth and the Moon in the sky.
Zheng Dao guided her to the east side of the villa, and pa.s.sed her the keys to a serene bedroom.
Subsequently, he added, “Please be at ease, there’re certainly no safety issues here. When it’s time for meals, I’ll call you through the phone in the room. You’re a fairy from the upper realm, you might not understand the situation in this realm… Oh no, you probably understand, don’t you?”
He pictured a place then stared at this sweet lady. “You’re quite proficient in our language, aren’t you? Could it be that…”
“Oh, before we descend from the upper realm, we’ve gone through training, so the Chinese language becomes our standard language.” Saoirse did not panic at all, she answered him sweetly.
“Oh, that’s hard to come by, I didn’t think that our language from China has transcended both realms. Hehe, I’m just joking.” Though Zheng Dao put on a smiling face, he secretly became more alert.
‘Since when has a force paid attention to the language of an unfamiliar place?’ He pondered.
There were historical examples of fellows who claimed to be “experts of China”, meaning they were more fluent in the Chinese language than people from China.
Even though most of them disappeared in the dense fog, the historical lesson left behind would never vanish.
Those fellows did not learn the Chinese language because they admired the country’s language, it was the exact opposite, they looked at it as a piece of juicy meat…
For all that, Zheng Dao kept a straight face. Once he was done making arrangements for Saoirse, he paced slowly back to his own study room.
The minute he was back, he opened his QQ and sent a message to the Venerable White Dragon.
…
In the System s.p.a.ce, Fang Ning was playing a singleplayer game. To prevent his QQ from ringing, he would naturally set his messages to a ‘do not disturb’ mode.
However, all his QQ messages were important, thus he never made this setting.
Without a choice, he opened it to take a look, and found that the sender was Zheng Dao.
“Venerable One, based on the lady’s behavior just now, I’m afraid that the people from the upper realm have long made plans to completely colonize us. Before they descended, they purposely went through training for the Chinese language, this is clearly to ensure convenience of ruling in the future.”
“Mmm, you’re right, I’m already aware of this.” As a matter of course, Fang Ning had known about this but he was lazy. All along, he a.s.signed these country affairs to Ren Ruofeng and the others.
Nevertheless, now that he was asking him about this, he could not ruin Vigilante A’s character setting, hence he could only answer him.
“In order to counter these colonizers from the upper realm, the current measure to be taken is to consolidate and build an indestructible foundation, and preserve China’s seeds to ensure our safety. The Morality City built by Cang Gongzi, and the Land of Heritage supervised by Elder Hai are examples of the foundation.”
“Venerable One, as expected, you truly have great foresight, you actually made preparations in advance. I really admire you.”
“Hehe, my pleasure. Go attend to your matters, as long as everyone carries out their own duties, we’ll be able to stand strong.” Fang Ning conveniently gave him a bowl of chicken soup for the soul.
After Zheng Dao gladly received it, he stopped blabbering, and continued working with 200% of his pa.s.sion.
A message rang for a long time on his QQ, but he no longer checked it…
