Chapter 432: Three Concerns

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As soon as Elder Ancestor Bai had renounced the behavior, no one dared to speak for a while.

Shortly after, however, some people began to speculate. General Nie had sought refuge with an Upper Realm Demon Lord, could Elder Ancestor really handle it himself?

Most likely, he would do as what he did with Vigilante A and put up with it.

General Nie had probably thought of that, and so he left without holding onto any fear of repercussions.

Having thought that, some of them were not amused. Elder Ancestor Bai’s words did not seem to carry much weight in that circumstance.

However, they were not idiots who would show these on their faces.

However, with Elder Ancestor Bai’s power, he could easily pluck those thoughts from their minds just by looking at their eyes.

That was just how it was.

Power could make others behave respectfully in front of someone, but to make them really respect him, he would need to be able to carry out his promises.

He made up his mind to not expose them and said, “Shixin, your suggestion was excellent, I’ll allow you to head the planning of the Demonic Sharing Platform. Aim to finish it as soon as possible. Humans have too big of a historical baggage, so we should aim to unite the demons of Earth before them.”

“Yes, Elder Ancestor.” Bai Shixin kept his gaze calm.

Cang Gongzi was not fit for a king, it could only be a sage for the Greater Rat Clan like how Confucius, Fan Zhongyan, Ouyang Xiu are to humans.

All because it was not fierce enough…

No matter if he was carrying out his ulterior motive, he would have to object to Cang Gongzi’s election!

Elder Ancestor Bai did not seem to have noticed his thoughts. After he had assigned the tasks, he adjourned the meeting.

In the meeting room, he alone stood in silence for a good few moments before he disappeared.

…

After the Stairway to Heaven episode had concluded and the Divine Monument had shown the Divine List, it flew away on its own. Needless to say, it was looking for its master, Vigilante A.

As there were no further reasons to stay, all of the groups of creatures began their journey home.

In mid-air, Brett the black dog was heading home before it got stopped by someone.

It bared its sharp fangs and glared at the one who stopped it.

The yellow dog and the eagle had already taken their wives to spend their rare holiday on a trip.

It was left with the task of sending the white hamster to Qi City, where the hamster would take the Golden Train to Morality City for work.

“Oh, respectable Earthly Hound, I only wished to speak with my child. Hope you could allow me this wish.” Elder Ancestor Bai smiled lightly.

Brett sniffed the air. A familiar scent came from the other person, which triggered some fearful memories it held.

It turned around and looked at the white hamster who was meditating on its back and spaced out a little.

“It is your child? I guess it could be true.” The black dog had never paid attention to rumors like that. Aside from watching videos, most of the time, its brain was in a spacey state.

“It looked like it was sleeping though, maybe you should wait for it to wake up.” The black dog was still pretty nice to its compatriot, it did not want to disturb the white hamster’s sleep.

After all, this was the only friend he had aside from Dragon Carp in its Master’s residence. Xue Ba the yellow dog had always imposed its superiority over it.

Two of a kind never agree, after all.

“Is that so? I shall wait.” Elder Ancestor Bai said politely without the ferocity it showed just moments ago.

“No need for that. I can tell you why I did what I did now.” said the white hamster suddenly.

“Why?” Elder Ancestor Bai asked.

“I did not step onto the stairway because I am not ready. If I did what you expected of me, you would’ve used that to force me to take over the Greater Rat Clan.” Cang Gongzi said slowly.

“Is that so? You’re still evading your responsibility…” Elder Ancestor Bai did not look surprised, “there wasn’t much time left. There are people who are aiming for the throne, and I don’t mind changing my heir.”

Having finished, he turned around and left with his back turned toward the black dog and the white hamster.

“I say, Brother Cang, you’re in line for the throne?” Brett’s eyes were sparkling. It did not expect the tiny rat it had been carrying came from royalty.

“Yeah, that old man kept wanting me to succeed him, but I still have some confusion I need to sort out. I can’t succeed him in this state.” The white hamster seemed unusually upset.

“What’s the confusion? Tell me, maybe I can give you some advice,” said the black dog with its head slanted to the side.

“Uh, I shouldn’t worry you with my concerns.” The white hamster shook its head. Everyone knew that Brett was the dumb brute of the family.

Involving it in its own concerns would likely result in it being muddied even further.

“Even you were looking down upon me.” The black dog lamented in discouragement.

Cang Gongzi was a kind-hearted hamster, it immediately said, “Brother Brett, you misunderstood. I just didn’t want to burden you. If you insist, I’ll vent a little.”

“Just spill it, I’m listening,” said the black dog with an unusual compassion.

“I have three main concerns. I have confirmed my path of cultivation, but firstly, I don’t know how to let the Greater Rats cohabit with humans; Secondly, I don’t know if I have the quality of a king; Thirdly, I don’t know if I can persevere through the future challenges that are sure to come.”

“Oh, this is easy. I have the solution.” The black dog said matter-of-factly.

“Brother Brett, I’m happy to be educated.” Cang Gongzi was ecstatic.

“Ask our Master. He’s mighty, powerful, and near-omnipotent… With his arsenal of abilities, he would definitely be able to solve your problem for you.” Brett said in adoration.

“Uh… you have a point.” The white hamster was not someone who would burden others, so it had never thought about throwing the responsibility to Vigilante A.

However, since Brett had advised it, it might be time to consult the Venerable One.

…

Soon after, in mid-air, somewhere.

Vigilante A was intercepting the malevolent demons and ghosts that were already on his list.

They had just left the Divine Gate, going home with excitement. The Divine List had spoken, and the concentration of vitality would be redistributed soon enough. This was the time to cultivate, to strengthen themselves. Only when they were powerful can they do whatever they want.

They had forgotten, they were already being served on a silver platter since a month ago.

“Not bad, each one of them could give me several hundred thousand to several million experience points, this is such a nice side income.” exclaimed the System as it struck a weirdly misshapen monster into dust with a palm strike.

“As long as you’re happy, but don’t over-farm them,” Fang Ning reminded. “There are good and bad seeds in there, you have to distinguish them carefully.”

“Don’t worry, my System Map might be vulnerable to misplacement, but it would not mistake the monsters.”

“That’s nice to hear.” Fang Ning was relieved.

As he finished, he saw Cang Gongzi’s Wechat message.

After reading its three concerns, Fang Ning gave it a thought and forwarded it to Anderson to set as the monthly quiz’s questions.

“1. On the Subject of Compatibility Between Humans and Greater Rats”

“2. The Quality of a King”

“3. A Discussion of Having Perseverance”

Fang Ning followed up with a reply on Wechat, “Don’t worry, Cang Gongzi. This is an easy task that will take ten days to a month at most. Just do what you have to do and take care.”

Having received Fang Ning’s prompt reply, the white hamster was moved.

It did not expect the Venerable One to prioritize its concerns even as he was busy.

It was no wonder the black dog was so trusting of Vigilante A. Even if it had given up on finding a mate, it still made the effort to help him.

“Brother Brett, thank you for your advice. Once we’re free, I will definitely treat you a huge meal,” said the hamster gratefully.

“You’re welcome. We’re partners, so we must help each other, this is what Master had always taught us. Oh right, I love huge bones, make sure you find somewhere with that.” After spending a whole month in the air without eating, Brett’s craving was almost insatiable.

“Of course,” said Cang Gonzgi spiritedly. Anyone would be subjected to dilemmas like this. Most of the time, it was not something one could get through on their own. That was where good friends come in.

The dog and the hamster arrived home soon after.

Brett accompanied the hamster to the Golden Train on the east of Qi City and sent it off.

It gave it a thought and immediately moved around. It had helped its Master to look for demons and treasures in the past. Now that there were no orders, it needed to show its versatility.

‘Oh, well. I should look for rare items and rare herbs or something. Master would definitely be happy that I’d do this for him, and when he’s happy, I might even get paired with a wife of my own…’
