9.9 – That's my name

It was a very dangerous thing to fall into Qi deviation on the path of cultivation. One wrong step and they would fall into the devil's path, and lose their life. Every step was very dangerous.
Fortunately, his Master was very obedient and well-behaved after he entered Qi deviation. He was very quiet as long as he could see Xue Ling, and his pair of slightly red eyes were wide open as they locked onto him. He didn't make noise, didn't make a mess, and didn't try to cut down trees.

Xue Ling remained within his line of sight, and the two of them looked at each other for a long time. Finally, he couldn't bear the weird atmosphere anymore, and asked the system that was squatting beside him looking completely at ease and comfortable: "What should we do now?”
The system looked at its host in some surprise. Its host had always had his own opinions. For him to reach the point where he was asking it what to do, this was… sjqdCY
“You've gone overboard.” The system learned from Xue Ling's usual lazy tone, and there was a bit of mocking intent contained in its voice. "I told you long ago that you should give him some immunization. Otherwise, sooner or later you would choke him up to the point where something goes wrong. He went into Qi deviation just by learning that there was another person on Still Peak. If he finds out that you treat Yu Shaofeng as a son, won't he directly turn into a devil?"
Xue Ling rolled his eyes. Faced with his system's tone, he also had no intention of being polite. "You're the one encouraging me behind the scenes. When I did this, you were clearly waving a flag and shouting in support."
System: “…” Well yeah, as long as the man was unhappy, it would be happy, so it had indeed been waving a flag and cheering.
“Based on his current appearance, it looks like he's trapped in his mind. But his power level has not changed, and I can't leave his sight. It’s really quite difficult to deal with.” WS3MRO
“No one wants to go into Qi deviation and fall into the devil's path, so let’s calm down and think about what to do to fix this.”

“Don’t I look calm enough?” Xue Ling had never been more calm from beginning to end. He has experienced so many worlds that fewer and fewer things can surprise him. Hadn't the man just gone mad out of jealousy? It was really something that this repressed man would do, and wasn't surprising at all. "In the cultivation world, there are usually two ways to deal with Qi deviation. One is to wait for it to ease up on its own, and the other is to feed him medicine."
“It's not like you don't know what to do. If you’re sick, you should take medicine. Just give him some pills."
It was obvious that the system didn't care about this man's life or death. Xue Ling couldn't just do that - things like Qi deviation were usually caused by an unsettled heart, coupled with paranoia, which led to a confused consciousness. 1pwvQ
The man had never been paranoid before, so even when his consciousness was being eroded by his spiritual root, he had not entered Qi deviation. It was only now that Xue Ling was here that he began to be restless all the time.
After this point had been made clear, the system helplessly asked its host: "The source of his paranoia can only be you, and it'll be fine if he can obtain you or something. What are you going to do now? Go up and let him do you?"
Xue Ling tilted his head and thought about it, then asked the system: "Isn't this the traditional route for dogblood novels? Master goes into Qi deviation and tops the disciple, and forgets about this matter after they wake up while the disciple endured the humiliation and had to carry the burden alone. After that, he distanced himself from his Master so that he would not have to go back to that cold and cruel time in his memories. He wanted to have a normal life, but on the day he was about to start a new life, his Master remembered what had happened that day and all that they had done together."
System: “Then there’s little black room play. I know! If you want to try that, I can find you a prisoner's body in the next world." T4rKUL
Xue Ling rolled his eyes at the system: “If I'm really imprisoned, I'll probably pull out all your fur and then destroy the world to start over."
System: “…” Did it have nothing to threaten its host with at all? … Why did it feel like being a system was an increasingly sorrowful thing…
“Why do you have such trivial things in your head?” Xue Ling knocked on the system's head and laughed as he said, "How can you really believe that I really have to do those kinds of things with him to wake him up?"
“Probably because I've been influenced by you pair of dogs after so many worlds." Idr9Rt
