: One Cannot Get What is Denied Him by Destiny No Matter How Hard He Tries; the Vicissitudes of Life Has its Causes
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Vigilante A passed countless forks with Zhu Hongyin leading as they continued their conversation. Before long, he had arrived at a cavern illuminated with more than ten eternal-burning lights.
Here, the wind blew cold with the eerie aura of ghosts. On the floor of the cavern stood thirteen blue-and-white porcelain funeral urns.
All the urns had special runes carved on them, which connected and hooked with each other to form peculiar patterns.
On the ground, there were similarly complicated runes, continuing all the way up the stone walls of the cavern. This was apparently a very high-level sealing spell.
Zhu Hongying stopped and pointed to the blue-and white porcelain urns.
These are the most evil ghosts we’ve ever had. Every one of them has strength above B Grade. They had committed many evil sins and wreaked havoc in many places. They had to be captured by the Bodhisattva’s own hand.

Vigilante A nodded.
Hmm, free one and let me see them.

Fang Ning knew why Sir System wanted to say this. These evil ghosts could not even show up as dots on the map. The spell must be very strong indeed to be able to prevent the system map’s detection.
After all, the entire Ghost Valley Mountain was situated in the Xiang province. This place had already been lit up on the map.
There were 99 sections in the land of China, and there were already 78 places which were already glowing. Moat provinces in China showed up clearly on the system map.
Zhu Hongying, hearing this, gave him a glance. Without hesitation, she held the green jade talisman in her hand and muttered some words. A greenish light shone from the talisman and pounced on one of the urns on the ground.
She had just witnessed the power of this Venerable One. Even the tyrannical Qi Mei, the strongest she’d ever seen, could not have been beaten easily by the Bodhisattva. This Venerable person, with his magical objects, had Qi Mei end up with a destroyed physical body. Aside from that, two strong spells were in place as insurance – one on the urn, the other encompassing the entire cavern.
When the green light pounced into the urn, an ordinary-looking man soon emerged. This man emitted strong Yin energy, his expression twisted and vile, and like Zhu Hongying said, possessed no ordinary strength.
As he saw Zhu Hongying, his gaze was filled with greed and lust.
It’s Law-enforcer Zhu again! Well, to make me pious is actually quite simple. Just with your company…


Evil demon! Not only do you have no remorse, you still dare to speak in such a way!
With an angry shout from Vigilante A, a purple beam of lightning the shape of a dragon exited his palm and instantly hit the other.
The man then widened his eyes, filled with such pain that he could no longer speak. His form was blasted to pieces, and waves of Yin Energy scattered as he died.
Just then, Fang Ning saw the system notification appear
[The System has used up one Aggro Bar, using the Thunder-attribute Dragon-series martial art tactic
Purple Lightning and Godly Thunder
, to attack the evil ghost Tu Gang.]
[Tu Gang has been struck by an extreme Yang-attribute attack, and is controlled by the power of the Dragon. Crit! Defense Ignored! Run-over Attack!]
[Tu Gang was killed in an instant.]
[The System has gained 650,000 Experience Points.]
Zhu Hongying looked at Vigilante A, her eyes respectful and wary with a hint of gratefulness.
A great B-level master, not capable of withstanding even one blow from the Venerable One…
Their Bodhisattva’s only flaw was being too kind. These ghosts have caused evil, and do not care for human lives. Isn’t it obvious what they are?
When they knew that whatever they did, they would only be imprisoned, not executed – without even the harshest punishment, they would naturally go wild and use vile, lascivious words. Trying to teach them and allowing them to turn over a new leaf every time, was almost always a waste of effort.
In this aspect, the Venerable Dragon God, decisive in his killing, makes for more satisfaction for others.
Now, all the other urns were vibrating simultaneously. It was obvious that they knew this time, they would not be let off easily…
This was not the Bodhisattva with his prayers, hoping to help ghosts.
The fellow killed just now has been with them for a while, so they knew his strength. He may be lascivious and disgusting, but he was a strong B Grade being. Even if they were imprisoned, the heavy Yin energy in the Cave of Spirit Kings and the non-effort from the Association of Spirit Kings to reduce their strength meant that their strength did not decrease, but instead went the opposite direction compared to before.
Now, however, with an instant kill by a visitor, it was apparent that this was a decisive person when it came to killing, and thus would not allow them to run wild.
Zhu Hongying sneered to herself. These ghosts have caused too much cruelty and yet felt no remorse. Now the time has come. Let’s see if they would dare to be this arrogant in the Draconic Penitentiary.
This Venerable being was no Bodhisattva with his kind and compassionate disposition.
She then opened her mouth.
Under the sacred instruction of the Bodhisattva, you shall all be transferred into the Draconic Penitentiary under the care of the Venerable Dragon God. We have given you multiple chances before, but you never appreciated them. Be careful in the future.

At this, the urns vibrated with a buzzing sound as though pleading for mercy.
Vigilante A nodded.
Let them all out at once.

Zhu Hongying held the jade talisman. Green beams of light shot towards the urns.
And yet, no ghosts appeared from these urns.
Fang Ning shook his head upon seeing this and thought
If you cower, would Sir System not have a way to deal with you? It’s not the Sir’s first or second time entering the premises to farm ghosts.

As he watched, purple lightning once again came out, and then the System notifications showed
[The System has killed the evil ghost Liu XX.]
[The System has gained 400,000 Experience Points.]
[…]
Fang Ning said helplessly.
They want to transfer prisons, not be immediately executed by you… Let’s go through the processes first.

The System
Oh, it’s a habit…

[The System has caught Xie XX and put him in the System Prison.]
[The System has executed Xie XX]
[The System has gained 500,000 Experience Points.]
Not long after, Zhu Hongying sensed that the urns had all been vacated. Relieved, she told Vigilante A.
Please follow me elsewhere.

The System said,
Well, it’s not a waste saving them. I gained 7,000,000 Experience Points this time. I’m almost Lake-Level. Comparing value, farming those Basin-level ones hold much more than farming Pond- level Powerhouses.

Fang Ning nodded.
Naturally. Most online games have a farming limit. For monsters a certain number of levels below you, farming them again would give no experience or a very small amount. That is, if your experience doesn’t decrease, the higher-level characters would be much more effective in farming lower-level monsters, and would raise their level much quicker. Since Sir does not have this kind limit, of course farming the lower-level ones would be much more effective.

The System
That’s good. Next time the Association of Spirit Kings would be great in helping us collect monsters. Great Billionaire Host, you have an eye for quality after all, having such an ally is not bad.

That night, Vigilante A followed Zhu Hongying as they made detours, clearing out all the evil ghosts. Those who were extremely cruel and vile were immediately executed in exchange for Experience Points, while the less evil ones were escorted into cells.
In the Draconic Penitentiary, the initial number of 40 prisoners has increased to 200 in a blink of an eye. The one-layer cells were a waste of space, and was now turned into a 4-storey prison building.
The prison area occupied three quarters of the system space, 150 meters long and 75 meters wide, 15 meters high, and 11250 square meters in area.
The area of a single cell was 10 square meters, and the building had 100 single cells per story, which is only 1000 square meters. Every cell is 3 meters high, and including the floorboards, had a total height of 13 meters. 200 prisoners only occupy 2 levels, and this prison, excluding the outside buildings, can still be expanded for at least 10 extra copies of this prison building, with a maximum population of 4000. So, it would be a long time until the prison would be full.
Fang Ning was not worried about the large number of people. He had Anderson to take care of it, and it would just a matter of recruiting more guards.
Then again, guarding souls had a great benefit; they only had to consume low-quality Vitality Pills. There would be no daily waste, or need for fresh air.
Sir System had gorged again this time. Fang Ning made a simple calculation in farming more than three thousand evil ghosts, the stronger ones would yield a few hundred thousand Experience Points, while the weaker ones would only yield a few thousand. In total, there were already 20 million Points in hand.
Fang Ning had not expected that the true benefits of this were not always obvious. By only helping the Association of Spirit Kings, one unexpectedly gained more points than back in the Land of Heritage.
It was just that those evil ghosts has been acquired by the Association over the span of more than 10 years. Clearly, evil ghosts were not easily created.
This was an undeniable heritage which a strong power had accumulated over the years, and was not easily done by an individual. He and the System still had to work harder.
After ridding the Ghost Valley Mountain of evil spirits, Vigilante A turned back. Elder Gui Da offered another small gift 10 million in cash, 3 boxes containing all types of Yin-attribute medicinal herbs, and a talisman,
Order of the Spirit Kings
, which would allow them to contact the members of the various branches of the Association for any assistance.
Compared to the mighty, wealthy Truth Department, this was definitely a small gift. However, Sir System, completely full, excused himself and left feeling satisfied.

In the deepest crevices of the Cave of Spirit Kings, and in a large hall, of which the four doors were closed, a young person sat, ordinary-looking, yet radiating an expression of sanctity and compassion from between his brows.
Beside him lay a fat, large and pale insect, the size of an elephant.
This young person was, of course, the Bodhisattva of Spirit Kings.
At the moment, his eyes were closed as though rotating through his abilities. White auras shone off him to enter the insect; and after a while, it exited the insect to return to his body.
A while later, the insect opened its mouth.
I remember what you said, Bodhisattva, that those evil ghosts are strong and would be useful. When they have all been turned, they would be reborn into my insect descendants which do not have souls and minds. With my adding a bloodline restriction, they can become the guard insects for the ghost realm in the future to lead in newly-formed ghost from all sides. But now, you have passed all those ghosts to the Venerable Dragon God to be treated as he saw fit. That man hates evil, and I am afraid most of them would have died. I simply don’t understand…

The Bodhisattva of Spirit Kings did not open his eyes, but said,
Insect Mother, all those years I have known that those residing in this realm are cunning and calculative. Those evil ghosts are too hard to turn, and there is no hope for them. Next time, it would be better to let those ghosts with kindness in them to be reborn into your descendants, becoming an insect spirit, and pick those with high intelligence to be guard insects. I have observed the foundation for the enlightenment of this Venerable Dragon God, and it is to pass judgement on the behalf of Heaven. Letting him deal with the evil ghosts fits the will of Heaven, and I believe his practice would improve greatly. Firstly, to repay his deed for rescuing me, and secondly, to spread the true Dao.

Insect Mother bowed her head slightly, convinced.
The Bodhisattva is truly kind and compassionate, and I have been rude.

Bodhisattva of Spirit Kings
Hmm, work harder at your cultivation, and in another half year, our Worm Spirit Rebirth Method would be complete. This would give those newly-formed ghosts in this realm a chance to be reborn in a Yang world. Letting them be reincarnated is not possible, since removing all memories is equivalent to execution, not to mention possessing a fetus is a great sin. Remolding the form to become a human again is even more impossible. This method that I have theorized complements the new Heavenly Axiom in this realm. It has many flaws, but with future perfection, it would follow the Path of Dao. And at that time, you would be the Clan God of the Worm Spirits clan, not secondary to the future of the old ancestor of the Bai family.

Insect Mother said hurriedly,
Thank you so much for your kindness, Bodhisattva. I would strive to work hard in order to help you perfect this Path.

The Bodhisattva of Spirit Kings gave a small smile.
Ha ha. Before there was Liang Zhu(TN also known as the Butterfly Lovers. A well-known Chinese love story about an ill-fated couple), who transformed into butterflies after death, and after, there would be ghosts transforming into worm spirits. One cannot get what is denied him by destiny no matter how hard he tries; the vicissitudes of life has its causes. Pity, though, if we had another arcane realm as the foundation for the clan of worm spirits, then it would last through the changes in seasons, and there would be no more disappointments.

The Insect Mother said,
Having founded this Path for the world, you would be helped by the Heavens in fulfilling your wishes, Bodhisattva.

The Bodhisattva smiled again, and both spoke no more, working on the rotation of abilities.
