Seized by the System

"If that's the case…" Vigilante A hesitated for a bit before continuing, "Let's just wait for Daqing to finish eating before we transfer."

"No, it's better to transfer the powers now, otherwise I can only eat two pots of food. It's so uncomfortable to eat when you're so stuffed, especially such delicious goods," Chong Daqing added quickly.

"Hmm, this fellow's even more anxious than us, Richie," Sir System said surprisedly.

Fang Ning, however, truly understood Chong Daqing's thinking. This was just like him having to wait for a game to be downloaded when he gamed. It was the most devastating torment one could experience, and that was why he spent so much on the acceleration software…

"Of course, and this is all thanks to the fact that I asked you to let her eat another hot pot dish earlier on. If not, how could she be so anxious?" Fang Ning immediate rushed to take credit.

"Hmm, probably. Alright, no more nonsense. Think, how can we persuade Bodhisattva to transfer his powers to a wicked spirit…" Sir System said gloomily.

"It's simple, just say it up front," Fang Ning replied indifferently.

"Hey, aren't you scared you'll leak the secret?" Shocked, Sir System asked.

"Hehe, we rely on farming to gain power. This isn't much of a secret. Besides, the world is infinite and there are so many strange creatures out there. Some gain power through faith, some gain power by feeding on others' energy, and some gain power with their own ways. We're not that extraordinary after all," Fang Ning responded.

"Oh, I see," Sir System said as he finally came to a realization, "Here I thought we ought to be a little more tactful with our words."

"You think too much… You're being so long-winded when we can just be straight to the point. Man, you've changed," Fang Ning said softly.

"Damn it, you're indirectly insulting me again. I'm being cautious, aren't I? With the powers Daqing has, she might just come up with a thousand million experience points worth of creatures, so can't I be a little more careful?" Sir System defended himself confidently.

"Hey…" Fang Ning was sizing up the great green insect that was just the size of a palm through the System View. She had already come down from Bodhisattva's Spirit King's temples and was crawling around the hot pot dishes, rubbing her belly with her middle limbs from time to time.

"Alright, hurry up then."

With that, Vigilante A reached out, and with a wave of his arms, all the hot pot dishes disappeared, leaving only a stunned Chong Daqing looking around confusedly.

"Since that's the case, let's transfer Daqing's powers first then. Don't worry about the hot pot dishes, I've already stored them up. I guarantee you that when I take it out the next time, they'll still be the same temperature and the same taste…" Vigilante A promised.

"Alright then, let's hurry up. Father Chong, let's finish this quickly," Chong Daqing urged as she straightened her body.

"Oh, but how should we do this? Although I don't know many techniques of transferring powers, I do know that there are plenty of drawbacks. As for the technique of enlightenment, the requisitions are even harsher…" Bodhisattva Spirit King said awkwardly.

Vigilante A nodded in agreement and asked, "That I have. Well, Bodhisattva is also known as the Spirit King, I believe your study on spirits should be at its peak and at the highest level of attainments. Am I right?"

"Hehe, I'm just slightly experienced, that's all. It's nothing worth high praise by you, Brother Dragon," Bodhisattva answered embarrassingly as he rubbed his chin, only to realize that his beard was not there anymore.

"What does he mean? Mr. Rich Boss, is he not confident to pull this off? Doesn't that mean all our efforts are wasted?" Sir System shouted furiously.

"He's pretending…" Fang Ning had nothing left to say.

"Oh, I understand now. Bodhisattva is the polar opposite of you. You're always pretending you're capable of doing something when you can't, whereas he's actually capable of doing something, but pretends not to. Wow, the difference is really big." Sir System grabbed the opportunity to insult Fang Ning.

"Damn it… You're using me as a negative example again. Hey, I just made a great contribution just now," Fang Ning responded agitatedly.

"Hmmph, forget about it, I guess I was just speaking without thinking. If that's the case, I'll let him start on it. Fortunately, we still have some of the top-grade wicked spirits from last time."

With that, Vigilante A pointed a finger, and a wisp of green smoke appeared above the dining table.

Among the green smoke, an extremely terrifying wicked spirit that was malicious-looking could be vaguely seen. In many of the horror novels, this would be the monster boss, an inexplicably horrible being.

However, this was just like meat on a chopping board here.

"This is an ultimate wicked spirit with extremely high endowment…"

"Oh, I do have a small impression of it. It has sinned countless times, too numerous to be listed even. It has killed so many innocent lives to gain power. A guy like this might just be the best choice for this, if placed in the eyes of the Upper Realm's Buddhists. Really, hahaha…" After slightly sensing it, Bodhisattva Spirit immediately shook his head.

"Since Bodhisattva said it too, let's just choose it to be the furnace to bear the powers. Bodhisattva will transfer Daqing's power to it, and then leave the rest to me," Vigilante A explained.

"That'll work," Bodhisattva nodded, then continued, "Just that with this sort of power transfer, an extremely private location is best to withhold the powers and ensure that we won't be compromised…"

"That's easy. I know a secret arena that has the complete defensive measures," Vigilante A volunteered.

With that, the two people and the insect disappeared into thin air.

All that was left was the empty table and the deserted restaurant. Right this moment, the moon was already high in the sky outside…

…

On the second floor of the arena in the Draconic Arcane Realm.

The wide space in the middle had long been emptied.

Chong Daqing was sprawled out on the floor looking left and right. "Why do I have a feeling that this place is really close?" She wondered out loud.

"What do you mean?" Bodhisattva asked curiously.

"It's really near old ginseng," Chong Daqing answered honestly.

Once Sir System heard her answer, he was very shocked. "Hey, her nose is pretty good. We're right below the Draconic Arcane Realm. Is it possible for her to also have Old Yellow's Natural Trait?"

"Hmm, it's probably because a foodie's sense of smell has already been more evolved," Fang Ning forcibly explained.

"Let's not get ourselves tangled with these details," Vigilante A interrupted softly. He reached out and released the green smoke, then said, "Bodhisattva, please begin."

"Brother Dragon, do you know if this place is able to suppress the evil spirit? You must know that Daqing's current powers are absolutely unexpectedly high to the point that I'm afraid no other being is able to surpass her within this universe," Bodhisattva cautioned.

"Don't worry, Bodhisattva, I've already settled this earlier. This wicked spirit has been injuncted so no matter how strong it is, it's impossible for it to fight back," Vigilante A responded confidently.

Naturally, Fang Ning knew the reason Sir System was so confident of itself. This place was right beside the System Space so they could directly transfer into it. No matter how strong this wicked spirit was, they had nothing to worry about.

Aside from that, he believed that Sir System would have other means to stay in control, but he just did not bother asking, or else this fellow would find something to nag again.

"That's good then. Daqing, you just sit tight," Bodhisattva nodded his head at her.

Hearing the words, Chong Daqing immediately got up and sat upright.

This was something important that would affect her comfort when she ate in the future so she had to be serious about it.

Bodhisattva was very pleased. He then pointed his finger, and a trail of grey smoked emerged from his index finger, which then connected both Chong Daqing and the green thread of smoke.

Not long after, the wicked spirit in the green smoke began expanding rapidly just like a balloon being blown up, as if it had just consumed ten whole enriching pills.

Chong Daqing, however, was completely unaffected.

"Bodhisattva is pretty good. It's like he's proficient in any technique," Sir System exclaimed enviously, "Makes me really eager to learn too."

"You have plenty of techniques too, even Bodhisattva envies you. Besides, he's a bodhisattva who exorcizes demons in the Upper Realm, it's only natural for him to be widely knowledgeable in order to face the ever-changing demons." Fang Ning, on the other hand, really admired Sir System's learning capabilities. Although he was quite dumb, he had always been extremely hard-working.

"I have to deal with all kinds of evil creatures too, so I need to have a wide of knowledge as well. Help me think of something that'll let him pass them on to me, will you?" Sir System pleaded.

"Hmm, are you expecting Vigilante A to take him as a master? It doesn't fit with my icy cold image though…" Fang Ning hesitated. "Let's just give this matter some thought and discuss it later…"

"What do you mean to give it some thought? You're just trying to drag this over, aren't you? Sir System was still not giving up.

"Just listen to what I say. You have so much to say for a system! Forget it, worst case is to just exchange techniques with him. You've collected many techniques yourself too, even the Draconic Penitentiary is getting full," Fang Ning answered in an annoyed tone.

"That'll work too. Alright, I'll find him later," Sir System finally responded satisfactorily.
