Duke Yun spoke with fervor and enthusiasm.
Fang Ning listened until he wanted to doze off, but unfortunately, since Sir System was unavailable, he had to control his body himself.
‘How troublesome. I can’t even laze around and play in the System Space like this.’
With this thought in mind, he was suddenly struck by inspiration and immediately stood up.
Duke Yun instantly sensed something and stopped talking. He turned around to face the Venerable Dragon God.

Hm, I have some matters to attend to, so you just continue with the meeting. Be sure to host it successfully and send a copy of the rules to me afterward.


Of course. Please go ahead, Venerable One.
As an ambitious person himself, Duke Yun understood the Venerable Dragon God’s behavioral patterns, and so did not force him to stay.
The Venerable One never wasted time. It was not easy to get him to attend the meeting today. His appearance fee was not low at all…

Take care, Venerable One.
A group of leaders rose up to send him away. He was their protection umbrella, so of course they would be respectful to him. With this True Dragon, at least he would stand up to any devil demons who made trouble when they were doing business…
Fang Ning waved his hand with the demeanor of the most successful man since the 80s and floated to the Sky Eagle’s back.
The Sky Eagle soared high with a shrill cry.
The black and yellow dogs exchanged looks and pounced on the ground.

Big Black, do you know where Master is going? Do you only know how to run?

In the dark underground, the yellow dog asked grumpily beside him.
However, there was no response from the space.

I don’t know, but I can just follow you.
The Black Dog said triumphantly.

Oh… you’ve become much smarter recently. I think there’s a big problem there.
The yellow dog turned to look at the black beside it with eyes full of suspicion.
Had it not for that little glint in the black dog’s eyes, the yellow dog might not have even found it.
Its wisdom came from reading poems and books, and it had worked diligently. As for that black fellow, it had always been stupid, so why was it getting smarter recently?
‘This isn’t logical. There must be a catch somewhere.’

Hmph, Yellow Boss, how can you accuse me, an innocent person, without any basis 1
 ?
The black dog felt very wronged,
You must be jealous of me. Do you think you won’t be able to fool me anymore in the future?


Sigh, you’re quoting scholars now? There really is a big problem here. The experience of investigating abnormal events have taught me that if there’s something odd, it must be because of a demon.
Saying this, the yellow dog’s nose suddenly flashed a bright golden light and twitched a few times.

This is bad. There really was a problem?!
The yellow dog Xue Ba exclaimed. It had originally wanted to block the black dog and make it stop, but the following flash of thought quickly banished that idea.
It almost forgot that the black dog already had a mythical metal body. If it was hit by the black dog, not only would its half its body become paralyzed, it would be the bottom half of his body that becomes paralyzed too…
The yellow dog thought about this.
It slowed down its escaping arts.
Then, it disappeared.

Ah, Old Yellow, where did you go?
The black dog looked around the empty underground in confusion.
Unlike itself, Old Yellow had yellow fur and could shine on its own, so even in the darkness, it was able to attract the attention of others. That was the reason why the black dog could keep an eye on it even in the dark.
The black dog had a painful headache and could only return home first.
Then, it saw a scene that made it furious.
…

Master, there’s a big problem with the black dog Brett. In the past, only its fur was black, now, its heart is black too.

Fang Ning was about to return to his bedroom and secretly turn on his computer to play a nostalgic single-player game, but was stopped by Brett 2
 in the living room. Thus, he had no choice but to solve the problem seriously.

Hm, are you still holding a grudge about its recklessness from the last competition? Yes, it did go too far, but I’ve already scolded it severely. It should have just been an improvised plan, not a calculated one. After all, you’re kin brothers. As the saying goes, the relationship between you still exist even after experiencing many troubles, and you’ll forget past betrayal and revenge with a laugh at the time of meeting again. You should learn to let go a little.
Fang Ning counseled.

Master, how can you accuse… no, I’m not accusing the black dog without basis. I actually smelt it. There’s a pitch black and ugly place in the black dog’s heart that’s emitting an indescribable stench from the Path of Devils. I suspect a devil has infiltrated his mind…
The yellow dog Xue Ba said firmly.

Hiss…
Although Vigilante A was expressionless, Fang Ning was shocked.
He himself had pitted against that demon Zhi Nan several times, but he had fortunately managed to avoid it. That was because he had a firm will that did not get confused by the devil.
However, the black dog might not possess such a will. Fang Ning pondered with concealed resentment, ‘It must be that Zhi Nan again. He just refuses to give up on his sinister plans. He must have attached his Path of Devils on my followers after suppressing his sense of existence.

Although the System Rules had certified the black dog’s loyalty, that did not mean that the black dog would not go astray.
After all, there were a lot of evil people that were also loyal to their Boss. Those loyal younger brothers that dared to die for their Boss were not in the minority. However, some of their actions would make one’s hair stand on end.

I see, what do you think we should do now?
Now that Fang Ning could not pass on the responsibility to the System, he could only the yellow dog instead.

I think we should lock it in a small black house 3
 for a few days, and fight fire with fire.
The yellow dog said firmly.
At this moment, a few barks of indignation sounded from the door of the living room.
Fang Ning turned and saw the black dog standing there, not knowing what to do.

Ah, Big Black, look at you. You’re so agitated that you forgot how to speak human language. Don’t be like that, big brother is only doing this for your own good…
Now that the yellow dog was caught in the act of snitching, it immediately changed its tune.

Bark bark!
The black dog revealed its glinting steel teeth, striking fear into others.
The yellow dog immediately hid behind Fang Ning, no longer carrying any of the righteousness from before.

Eh, you’re both brothers. A wise man once said, you should never turn your blade against your brother. Brett, retract your spiritual ascension.
Fang Ning also felt slightly frightened after seeing it. Who knew if those steel fangs would be able to bite through dragon skin or not?
The System certification was very reliable. The moment the black dog heard him, it immediately retracted its steel teeth obediently and lay on the ground with a wronged expression.

Master, Old Yellow is accusing me without any basis, so you have to let me handle this! I’ve always been loyal to Master. I work overtime every day for 24 hours without asking for money…
Fang Ning nodded as the black dog counted its merits. Those were all true!

As for that yellow dog, it only knows how to pick up girls during work. After the last Divine Gate event, the Sky Eagle and it took a girl on a public tour while I helped Master search everywhere for treasure. Which one of us is loyal or treacherous, the sky, your heart, and even the sun and moon can see!
The black dog became more agitated the more he talked. It straightened up and pointed one paw to the sky and another paw on the ground.

Sigh, don’t be so worked up. I know, I understand. You’ve worked hard.
Although that was what Fang Ning said, he had a vague realization. ‘It seems there really is something wrong with the black dog.’
However, the fact that it was not conscious of this fact was exactly what made devils terrifying!
‘It could instill thoughts into your character and change your personality, but you’ll still think that you’re right!’
‘That was the most frightening part, because that way, you won’t feel guilty or ashamed. Instead, you’ll be more dedicated to the wrong path and never look back.’
‘Damn it, how dare he use this on my family!’
Fang Ning was furious. The System could seize him, and he was able to work in the System Space where no evil could invade and do him harm. However, his loyal followers might be tempted by the devil precisely because they were too loyal.
He thought about it and realized. That time, the black dog shameless plan of attacking the yellow dog’s weak spot to force it out was ultimately because it wanted to show its ability to its Master.
Unfortunately, the devil had focused on that intent, which caused it to formulate such a plan.
In the Era of Vitality, it really would not do to be confused. One must not be too relaxed or careless. Now that the System went of to upgrade itself and left him alone to act as the caretaker, he really could not attend to one thing without losing track of the other.
‘Forget it, I’ll stop playing games for now.’
Thinking about this, Fang Ning solemnly said,
Black dog, don’t be afraid. I know all about your loyalty. Stretch your head over here, I’ll give you a Buff… No, I’ll personally give you some enlightenment and let your perception increase by another layer. That way, the yellow dog won’t suspect your intelligence to be because of a devil anymore.


Thank you, Master.
The black dog immediately ran over with a wagging tail at his words. It obediently lay on the ground and showed a pleasing expression.
‘Well, it’s loyalty is still the same as ever. The System won’t make any mistakes in this aspect. Since the devil won’t be able to easily change its loyalty, it can only use treacherous tricks instead.’
Then, Fang Ning used the Devil Singing Buddhist Mantra.
Just as the yellow dog said, he would fight fire with fire!
