After Ning explained everything 5 tis, and Anya took it in with no understanding for the first and gave up on the 5th, they both left for the marketplace.
"So, you are a nascent soul?" Anya asked.
"No, I'm just a consciousness that can inhabit other things," Ning said.
"Like a Nascent soul," Anya said.
"Let's just say I am similar to a Nascent soul but am not one," Ning said.
"Okay," Anya said. "How long can you stay here?"
"As long as I want," Ning said.
"And your body? Won't it rot, or cause other problems?" Anya asked.
"I've stored it in my storage. It had ti frozen so it will stay there fine for a while," Ning said.
"Hmm… can I get one too? That system thing sounds fun," Anya asked.
"No, you need to find a black box that the system cos in with to beco one. Even then, you likely won't get one," Ning said.
Ning had asked the system a bit more about the process of how systems were made. Most of the ti, the answer he got was that the system didn't know. The creator only passed it enough information to know what its purpose was.
According to the system, there were 2 criteria when searching for a potential host.
The first was that the host had a terrible life and didn't get to live a good life. That was the reason Ning was given the system in the first place.
However, there was another reason as well. But the creator hadn't let the system know what the reason was, only that he had told them that it was a stupid criterion and had apparently laughed every ti the 2nd criteria had co up.
From this, Ning ca to understand two things. First, he didn't need to worry about the criteria much. He probably had sothing stupid happen in his life or had done sothing stupid himself which made him a potential candidate.
The second thing was that the creator laughed. Ning didn't know if this ant that the creator was a human or a god, but they definitely had so form of emotion, and that was surprising to him.
"That sucks. I wanted to be like you, and follow you around if possible," Anya said.
Ning sighed internally. It was likely that similar to Hyesi, even Anya wouldn't live to be old enough to see him leave the planet for good.
He was starting to feel bad right now.
"Miss Anya, co. We will be late," A guard of Anya quickly beckoned her.
"Coming," Anya said and walked behind him. Along the way to the gate, there were many disciples that greeted her and she greeted them back. She was really popular amongst the disciples here and that was clear to see.
In less than 15 minutes, Anya and her bodyguard reached the building where she was going to treat the other patients.
"Oh, the Goddess is here everyone," people shouted.
Ning was a little surprised when he heard the various people call her goddess. 'Is she that good now?' he wondered. There must be a reason why people would start calling a doctor the Goddess of dicine.
"Sister, you are finally here. Why are you so late?" A 9-year-old boy ca up to Anya.
"I'm on ti. I still have 5 minutes," she said.
"Yes, yes. Co fast," the boy took her in. Ning smiled inside the necklace when he saw Anya's little brother had also grown up. Not only that, Ning quickly checked him and realized that he was also a cultivator.
"Anya, did you give the books to your brother too?" Ning asked.
"Yes, master. Was I wrong to do that?" she asked.
"No, no, it's fine. I was just asking," Ning said. He was happy to see that both the brother and sister were doing fine.
Anya quickly went inside and soon started her treatnt of the people. There was a long line of people waiting to be treated and they all were very happy to see her be the one treating.
In fact, so people had delayed their treatnt just to do it with her. Anya was very fast in her work and treated people quickly. Her brother was also quite knowledgeable about different stuff and helped her a few tis.
Ning was surprised when he saw how well coordinated the brother-sister duo was. They were much better than when it was just Ning doing the work by himself.
'They're certainly doing great work,' Ning thought. Anya was at most a slight second slower than Ning at diagnosing the patients. That was sothing that surprised him a lot.
He had extrely great ntal strength and had an eidetic mory and yet the little girl was giving him a run for his money when it ca to understanding the patient's problem.
'She really didn't waste her ti with anything and just spent it cultivating and learning the dicine, didn't she?' Ning thought.
He could understand why the people were starting to call her the 'Goddess of dicine'. She really was just that when it ca to treating people.
'If nothing bad ever happens, she will grow up to be a strong force in the cultivation world,' Ning thought. Not only her, but even her brother would also beco strong and knowledgeable in dicine. At that mont, the sister-brother duo would be unstoppable when it ca to treating people.
'I should dump every knowledge I have to them,' Ning thought.
Anya treated the various people for a whole day, and by the ti the sun had set, everyone who had arrived had been healed.
Anya stretched when she realized everyone was treated. "Good work everyone," she said and stood up. "Let's go back to the sect."
Anya, her brother, and the bodyguard all went back to the sect under the moonlight. Anya's brother separated from them at the gate and walked towards a location that was for the disciple's family. He was still not old enough to be of age to enter the sect yet.
He would be next year, however, and he couldn't wait for that.
Anya returned back to her room. It was ti to cultivate, but she couldn't. So, instead, she ended up wasting her entire night talking with Ning.
Ning quite liked talking with her too, so he talked until the sun ca back.
