With that, everyone waited for three whole days and nights.

The River God of the Sky River was entirely still, maintaining the same action.

Perhaps this used to be something as effortless as lifting a finger, but right now starting from scratch where his magic was just restored, it would cost extreme effort.

Besides Vigilante A, Bodhisattva Spirit King, and Tianjing Fawang, the others had the slightest look of anxiousness on their faces, but they were all trying to not let it show.

Black Robe paced up and down. He was the most restless one among everyone else.

He suddenly remembered something and scanned his surroundings. He immediately paled and his hands trembled.

He walked over to Vigilante A, who was expressionless. “Vigilante A, let me ask you something. The little missy who was traveling you, where is she now?” He asked impatiently.

Once Black Robe asked, Fang Ning, who was currently cultivating at System Space, suddenly remembered as well.

It seemed that ever since he lost his memory, and after the System went into the river to cultivate, they never bothered about her anymore…

When they were in the Demon Cave, the girl would constantly be trying to help them. Furthermore, she was still considered a friendly force so of course, they could not just blatantly ignore her.

“Sir System, where did Saki Yamanashi go? I remember she wasn’t missing at the Draconic Arcane Realm.”

“Oh, she’s with Chong Daqing. They’re fishing at a cove in the east…” The System replied, seemingly without a care.

“Hey, you’re really heartless. Both her and Chong Daqing, they’re girls. They’re feeble. I lost my memory at that time so I couldn’t do much, but couldn’t you have done something?” Fang Ning was annoyed.

“You have so much to say… Though, I haven’t seen you care this much about me for the past year,” the System responded in a spiteful tone, “As long as they don’t go into the river, they won’t be attacked, and they’ll be fine. Besides, Chong Daqing’s also a Lake-level great insect so she’s not entirely feeble. She’ll be able to handle herself no matter what the situation is…”

“…” After enduring a blow from the System, Fang Ning was speechless.

Since Vigilante A passed through the novice village, he really did not have to worry much about the System’s safety…

After all, with the System’s powers, if there was something to worry about, it would be of himself.

At this moment, Vigilante cast a look at Black Robe. “She’s alright. If you want to look for her, just find a cove approximately 300 kilometers towards the east, but she’ll probably not follow you back.”

“Surely it doesn’t mean that she’s lost her memory as well?” With that, Black Robe ran towards the east.

He was so obsessed with completing Master’s task it slipped his mind that if something happened to the apprentice whom Master valued, it would be a huge dereliction of duty on his case.

At first, he expected that Vigilante A, who was so hero-like, would certainly look after the other party. However, he did not expect this fellow to be so cold and ruthless, to let a young lady wander around and do whatever she liked.

How would he know that the System was just a senseless system?

If Fang Ning was in the picture, he would never have let her leave all by herself.

…

Black Robe rushed all the way and soon enough, he arrived at the cove Vigilante A mentioned.

After hearing the two voices, he finally calmed down.

“Saki, look! This crab that just appeared is so big and fat, it’ll surely be delicious.”

“Let me catch it then. I’ll roast it up for you to eat…”

“Alright, take this. This is the baby I’ve always used when I fish in the past. It’s even able to catch dragon turtles. I don’t need bait either. No matter if they’re fishes, shrimps, or turtles, they’ll all bite the hook…”

Black Robe picked up his pace as he walked towards the source of these voices, and sure enough, he saw a young lady whipping out a golden fishing rod and throwing it into the River of Blood.

On top of the lady’s shoulder perched a huge green insect that was staring straight at the river.

Beside them was a bonfire that was burning strongly. It did not seem like just an ordinary bonfire.

In the river was a huge crab creating a nuisance. It was at long as three people, so it was definitely “big and fat”.

“Eh, isn’t this Upper Realm’s famous holy talisman – the Baitless Rod? How did it end up in the hands of the great green insect?”

With the memories instilled by the demon lord, Black Robe recognized it at a glance.

“What a waste. This little worm only knows how to use it to fish for something to eat, but not its real purpose…”

Before he could even have a second thought, he heard an angry voice.

“Damn it, you little bug, you’re allowing the Crab of Destiny to leave the water. Did you know how much effort I’ve put in to choose this? If it leaves the water before everything is done, all my effort will be a complete waste…”

A misty voice sounded from all directions.

“Oh, that’s really embarrassing. Though, I’ve already reeled it in so it’s gone now. It’ll be used to fill my stomach first, I’ll just pay you back some money alright,” Chong Daqing responded lamely.

“Sami, just ignore this mysterious bluff and quickly cook the crab. Ever since I’ve come down, I’ve never eaten such a huge crab…” It urged.

Although Saki Yamanashi was hesitant, she still obediently took the crab from the hook and straight away hung it by the campfire to cook it.

Somehow, the overbearing crab that was still snapping and clawing ferociously in the water once caught on the hook immediately stopped moving as if its mind was entranced…

The voice was not heard anymore.

When Black Robe walked over, Chong Daqing had already swallowed the half-baked crab…

The scene was really unbearable.

“You ate my Crab of Destiny. Is it delicious?” The voice rang once more.

“Yes, indeed. Though, the shell’s a bit too hard,” Chong Daqing responded with satisfaction.

“Well, do you want to eat more delicious food? They’re all in the water. It’s healthier if you eat it raw, come down and eat them…”

“No, I can’t go into the water. Only men are allowed to enter the water. The young lady earlier didn’t go either,” Saki Yamanashi quickly dissuaded.

She was so occupied with Daqing she did not even notice Black Robe appearing right in front of her eyes.

“It’s alright. To it, this may be a bigger chance…” Black Robe suddenly said.

“Eh, it’s Uncle Black Robe. When did you come over?” Saki Yamanashi quickly got up.

“Oh, I just arrived. Seeing that you’re alright, I’m relieved. You don’t have to stop this green insect, it has its own luck.” A hint of deceit appeared in Black Robe’s eyes.

Even though the vow was just pledged, but to the devils, vows were meant to be broken.

Chong Daqing stretched out her forelimbs and rubbed her head as she looked into the water. All of a sudden, the river cleared up and it was no longer a sea of blood-red as before.

Fishes were swimming around leisurely, showing off their big and fleshy figures.

The water was so clear that one could see the river bottom, and in the white sand, clams that were as big as basins could be seen with their rich flesh peeping out.

“That’s true. Ever since I’ve come down, I haven’t had a chance to really have a good meal since I have a restricted budget. This time around, I’ll be able to really stuff myself. I just don’t know if my stomach will hurt if I eat everything raw.” Chong Daqing hesitated.

“It’ll be alright. They’re all raised in my house so they’re extremely clean. Go ahead and help yourself,” the bewitched voice continued.

Black Robe completely understood what was going on, but he was not going to say it.

He just did not want the arcane realm to fall into the hands of Vigilante A.
