In the dark starry sky, Gu Buwei continued to run. He was not far from Venus.
In space, according to the predetermined direction, he teleported a certain distance, then drifted for a while to recover his magical energy. He did this repeatedly until he gradually approached his target.
In terms of average speed, he was at least one percent of the speed of light. Although it was not fast, it was enough for him to travel in the solar system. After all, the distance between the Sun and Earth was only eight light-minutes. If converted to his speed, it would take him 800 minutes to reach the embrace of the Sun from Earth …
As he was moving forward, he suddenly saw a light dot in the distance. It was flashing and was quickly approaching him.
His heart sank. Was it coming so soon?
He and his grandmaster had underestimated the gods!
He subconsciously pressed a button on his sleeve.
This was a radio wave transmitter that could send radio waves over long distances back to Earth.
Of course, this would take a few minutes. He needed to delay it, and he believed that he could delay it. The other party could not possibly understand what he was doing because even he did not understand … He was just doing it step by step.
…
In the System Space.
"Hey, why did Gu Buwei send a WeChat message asking for help? He said he's in space. Isn't this WeChat too amazing? He can even get online in space? "Sir System was shocked.
Fang Ning was speechless and took the opportunity to hit Sir System. "Are you stupid? Don't you know about the concept of relay? There's definitely no internet in space, but wireless communication can be done. Humans have been communicating with the moon for a long time. I think he probably sent a signal back to Earth, and then a designated receiver received the signal and forwarded the preset message to us … "
Fang Ning's patient explanation finally made Sir System understand.
"Oh, I see. Should we go and save him?" Sir System asked.
"Of course. We took his reward last time, but we didn't succeed. If we give up halfway, it will damage our reputation as heroes. Besides, the Heavenly, Earthly, and Human Monuments are not complete. The last monument still needs to fall on him. Nothing can happen to this guy. "Fang Ning said firmly.
"Oh, then I'll go. This universe is really troublesome. Without a map, we can only see the stars and not the people. It's a good thing he didn't run too far, or else it would be really hard to find him. What do you mean by standing in the middle of Mercury and Venus … If it were you, would you know this place? "Sir System muttered.
"Of course I don't know. I've stayed in Qi City for more than ten years, but I still got lost. Do you believe me?" Fang Ning shook his head.
"I believe it. You used to stay at home every day. It'd be weird if you knew the way." Sir System took the opportunity to retaliate.
"Nonsense, I used to have to travel a lot, okay? Otherwise, how would I have the money for food and rent? "Fang Ning retorted.
Not long after, Vigilante A appeared in the starry sky, but to Fang Ning and Sir System's surprise, Gu Buwei was not in any danger.
He was chatting with someone he knew.
Everyone knew this familiar person. It was the Great Devil Saint, Zhi Nan, who had not shown his face for a long time.
"Uh, is this guy playing wolf?" Sir System said gloomily.
"He's not a three-year-old kid. How dare he lie to us about this? He knows very well how precious this rescue opportunity is. He must've thought that the Great Devil Saint was going to kill him, so he immediately informed us. It's understandable. After all, we're in outer space. It takes more than ten minutes to send a message back. It's impossible for him to be completely sure before sending us a message. If there's any danger, he'll be dead by the time the news gets back. "Fang Ning comforted.
He did not have any ill feelings towards Gu Buwei. After all, without him, he would not have the Divine and Earthly Monuments. With these two treasures, he had the confidence to frequently wrestle with Sir System.
"Then what is he doing? Chatting with the Great Devil Saint to get close to him? "Sir System said gloomily.
At this moment, Gu Buwei had already noticed Vigilante A's appearance.
He quickly turned around and bowed deeply. "Venerable One, thank you for taking the trouble to come and rescue me. Although it was just a false alarm, I'm still very grateful. This is just a small gift, please accept it …"
After that, Sir System did not have any complaints … because this small gift was a little too generous.
Vigilante A gave out three Space Rings, each of which was filled to the brim with rare herbs and metal minerals. These were all raw materials that Sir System urgently needed.
Naturally, Fang Ning and it did not know that Gu Buwei had brought almost one-third of the Azure Mountain's wealth with him this time. This was also approved by the Grandmaster.
Now that the main force of his sect was paralyzed, those treasures were naturally a waste of resources, so he borrowed them all.
Even the Master's personal treasure was given to him by the Mistress. It was conceivable that the treasures of others would not be an exception.
After all, what he had to do was too big. Every bit of success counted.
This was not the time to be stingy.
The ancient Hegemon-King of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, was only one step away from reaching the top, but he still failed in the end. One of the main reasons was that he was stingy with his rewards. In this regard, he was not as good as Liu Bang, who was born as the eldest brother. He always made promises from one king to another and managed to rope in a large number of reinforcements.
Vigilante A kept the small gift and said lightly, "If that's the case, I'll take my leave. You guys have a good chat."
"Hold on." As soon as he finished speaking, the Great Devil Saint spoke, "All these years when I wasn't on Earth, Black Robe and the others have been taken care of by Your Excellency. Let's forget about our previous conflicts."
"Oh, up to you. As long as you don't do any evil, I won't look for trouble. If you do, then don't bother about my feelings." Vigilante A said lightly.
"Haha, on Earth now, the evil ones are others, right? But Venerable Dragon God, you don't seem to have the ability to look for them now? "The Great Devil Saint shook his head and sighed, as if he felt sorry for them.
"Hmph, what do you mean?" Vigilante A said coldly.
"What do I mean, Your Excellency, you know very well. I can help you expel those people as repayment for your protection of Black Robe. However, they can still come down here in the future. If you want to settle this once and for all, you'd better consider what I said years ago. "Zhi Nan smiled.
"Uh, Mr. Rich Boss, what does this bald donkey mean?" Sir System said gloomily.
Fang Ning said solemnly, "He's saying that he's now powerful and has the ability to do things we can't do. He wants us to consider if we should rely on him. Didn't he say that he'll make me his Demon General and give me a future as a Demon God?"
"Eh, rely on him? Then should I give him a portion of the wealth that I've worked so hard to accumulate? " Sir System immediately rejected, "That's impossible. Independence is the path of a hero. Otherwise, you'll just be a vine on a tree, swaying back and forth. That's not in line with my chivalrous rules."
"Eh, you put it so nicely. Isn't it just for the money?" Fang Ning said disdainfully.
"There's no contradiction to begin with." Sir System said firmly.
"Forget it, then you can just reject it." Fang Ning had no clue. He did not understand what the Great Devil Saint was relying on after not seeing him for a few years to dare to say such words.
After all, a few years ago, he was chased to the ends of the earth by Sir System …
