After delivering the golden sand, the Golden River did not disappear immediately. Instead, it floated in the air as if it was waiting for something.
Obviously, the River God of the Sky River had heard the conversation between Vigilante A and the poisonous snake.
This was the power of a powerful being. As long as it was not deliberately shielded, they would always have the advantage of information.
"This time, the profits are not bad. It would be great if there were a few more." Sir System said contentedly.
"Look at you, you don't have the right values. How can you hope for a thief to come? If a thief comes, won't the people suffer first? Without me to control you, you'll grow crooked in minutes. "Fang Ning reprimanded.
"Uh … Now that you mention it, I feel like my Chivalry Points have dropped a little. Damn it, looks like I really can't speak carelessly in the future." Sir System said resentfully.
"That's more like it. Looks like the System Maxim is still reliable." Fang Ning said with relief.
"Hey, why isn't this guy leaving after giving the gift? Mr. Rich Boss, go out and chase him away. Don't delay my cultivation. "Sir System immediately turned hostile after receiving the gift.
"I still have some dignity. Let's exchange some pleasantries first." Fang Ning was speechless.
System Notification: [The System has stopped seizing.]
"If there's no benefit, just throw the body to me." Fang Ning muttered. Then, he turned to the Golden River. "Senior River God, do you have anything else to say?"
"Oh, there's something I'm particularly concerned about. Previously, I heard from the Poisonous Rainbow Snake that 'the sun is going to be destroyed'. Venerable One, do you know the reason? "The Golden River said slowly.
"Uh, I'm aware of this as well. Previously, during the Great Wall Summit, many places where rare herbs grow in Cloud Fog City were found to have problems with lighting. Now, they're changing to artificial lighting. Looks like there's really something wrong with the sun. But who has the ability to interfere with the sun's operation? "Fang Ning was very confused.
"Oh, Venerable One, you don't know. I've traveled around the world, so I do know a thing or two. "The Golden River suddenly said.
"Senior, please tell me."
"I suspect it has something to do with the Great Sage Zhi Nan." The Golden River only said this sentence simply.
"Oh, I see. He does have the ability, but why is he targeting the sun? Does he want to exterminate us humans? I remember that he created a Paradise Realm in the past. He wanted everyone to give up their bodies and live in his paradise. "Fang Ning was confused.
"I do have some guesses. The Great Saint Zhi Nan was born into the royal family of an Oasis Kingdom. Because of the protection of the Goddess who had a crush on him, the weather was good. As a result, the population grew too large, and the environment deteriorated. In the end, the river disappeared, and the Goddess died. Ever since then, he had been obsessed with population growth, always thinking that having too many people was a great evil in the world. I'm afraid he's targeting the sun because he wants to control the population on Earth, "the River God guessed.
The Sky River flowed through all directions of the Upper Realm. This River God's knowledge was indeed extensive, he could easily dig up Zhi Nan's dark history.
Fang Ning also knew about Zhi Nan's gossip. He heard it from the Bodhisattva Spirit King, who was Zhi Nan's old friend.
The fact that the River God could mention it so casually meant that he was indeed well-informed.
"Hmm, it seems like Zhi Nan's obsession is deeply rooted." Fang Ning was deeply shocked. For the first time, he understood how terrifying a true demon's obsession could be.
Most of the obsessions of ordinary people could only be reduced to a joke because they were unable to realize them, and most of them were delusional.
For example, first love and past regrets.
However, this true demon's obsession was different. It had the ability, the ambition, and the time to accomplish it bit by bit. It was patient, ambitious, and far beyond what ordinary people could achieve.
"Then why didn't he directly destroy the world earlier? He even created a Paradise Realm, unlike ordinary devils. "Fang Ning asked.
"I don't really understand this question. Maybe he's still merciful? After all, he was a monk for a period of time. "The Golden River answered.
Fang Ning thought of the existence of another 'Zhi Nan' and nodded silently.
It seemed like the Great Devil Saint also had a hard time.
"I see. Do you know what he's doing, senior?" Fang Ning asked again.
"Recently, I saw a piece of news. Those subordinates of his are working with some American scientists. It seems like they're working on some new energy plan. It sounds like it's related to the sun, and they even said that they'll have new results in three months."
The River God revealed another piece of important news. The work of logistical support was done flawlessly.
"Oh, it seems like his idea of the sun isn't to directly destroy it, but there's a deeper meaning behind it. It should be the same old plan. He wants to greatly reduce the population, but he doesn't want humans to be completely extinct. What a cruel and contradictory devil …" Fang Ning said with deep feelings.
"Hmm, probably so. It's just that this method of his is the mortal enemy of all the Path of Gods. Whether it's me, the Bodhisattva Spirit King, or even Mahabrahma who has repeatedly been enemies with the Venerable One, none of us will allow him to do this. "The Golden River said lightly.
"Uh, who is that 'Mahabrahma'? With Senior River God's knowledge, you should know his background. "
"Of course I know, but it's not the right time yet. If I hastily tell the Venerable One about their background, it might cause variables." The Golden River suddenly kept them in suspense.
"I don't understand. What does this stupid bird mean by 'it's not the right time yet'? "Sir System suddenly interrupted.
"Uh, you're the stupid bird. He said 'it's not the right time yet', which means that he hasn't had a conflict with 'Mahabrahma' yet. If there is a conflict, then it means' it's the right time '. Since he needs us to suppress them, he naturally has to tell us all about their background, just like how we've eliminated devils before. "Fang Ning said lightly.
"I see, Mr. Rich Boss is still smart. A simple and honest System like me can't understand these twists and turns." Sir System was very depressed.
"Senior River God, please don't worry. I've always been responsible for saving the people, so I definitely won't allow him to harm all living beings." Fang Ning said sternly.
Sir System used this to fool people every day, to the point that even Fang Ning was starting to believe it …
"Hehe, the Venerable One has always been righteous and righteous, and I deeply admire that. However, if there's anything you need, I'll definitely be there at your beck and call. Although my magical power is low, and I can't reach the level of 'calling the heavens and the earth's spirits'; but if you want to 'get wind and get rain', I'm still somewhat competent. "The Golden River said humbly.
"Uh, what do I need 'wind and rain' for? Those 'golden sand' and whatnot, just give me more." Sir System said gloomily.
"You're being silly again, I'm just making a metaphor." Fang Ning was speechless.
Fang Ning could not be bothered with the idiot System, and said to the Golden River, "If that's the case, I'll pay attention to this matter later."
"Mm, thank you for your trouble, the Venerable One. I won't disturb your rest anymore. I'll take my leave, I'll take my leave. "As the River God spoke, the golden river slowly disappeared in the air before Fang Ning's eyes.
"Uh, the more I listen, the more I feel that he doesn't seem like the River God of the Upper Realm, but more like the Mountain God from the Journey to the West …" Sir System said disdainfully.
"Uh, you don't understand. This is where he's brilliant. This River God of the Sky River has a lot of experience, and he's well-versed in the ways of the world. He understands Vigilante A's behavior very well, and he knows that we don't flatter or bully those below us. That's why he's humble and lowly, so that we can be his spear. If he's high and mighty, and acts like a god from the Upper Realm, do you think we'll pay attention to him? "Fang Ning explained patiently.
"Of course, as long as he gives us enough golden sand, and as long as the commission isn't to do evil, even if he's arrogant, I won't care a bit …" Sir System said confidently.
"F * ck, I've forgotten that you're a shameless existence …" Fang Ning was speechless, and continued, "Don't show your true colors every day, don't ruin Vigilante A's character. That's like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons. When that happens, will there still be so many people who trust us, help us, and let us collect kills? For example, if you put up a character that forgets about morality at the sight of profit, how can he possibly provide ambergris for free and ask for our protection? It'll definitely be a lot of twists and turns. "
"Uh, the wise Host has a point. I understand, I'll be careful." Sir System said without thinking.
"Damn it, don't keep mentioning that word." Fang Ning was speechless.
"I'm just saying this to express my admiration for you. 'Wise Host' just said it casually, and it's a famous saying of the wise man. It can't even be found on the Internet. I really admire you. "Sir System said confidently.
"I can't be bothered with you. I've been running around for the whole day, and I'm tired. Little System, you can rest now." Fang Ning went into the System Space and threw his body to Sir System.
