Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 245: Anyaʼs Day out

After Ning explained everything 5 times, 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, Iʼm just a consciousness that can inhabit other things,” Ning said.

”Like a Nascent soul,” Anya said.

”Letʼs 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? Wonʼt it rot, or cause other problems?” Anya asked.

”Iʼve stored it in my storage. It had time 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 comes in with to become one. Even then, you likely wonʼt get one,” Ning said.

Ning had asked the system a bit more about the process of how systems were made. Most of the time, the answer he got was that the system didnʼt 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 didnʼt 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 hadnʼt 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 time the 2nd criteria had come up.

From this, Ning came to understand two things. First, he didnʼt need to worry about the criteria much. He probably had something stupid happen in his life or had done something stupid himself which made him a potential candidate.

The second thing was that the creator laughed. Ning didnʼt know if this meant that the creator was a human or a god, but they definitely had some 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 wouldnʼt live to be old enough to see him leave the planet for good.

He was starting to feel bad right now.

”Miss Anya, come. 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. ʼIs she that good now?ʼ he wondered. There must be a reason why people would start calling a doctor the Goddess of Medicine.

”Sister, you are finally here. Why are you so late?” A 9-year-old boy came up to Anya.

”Iʼm on time. I still have 5 minutes,” she said.

”Yes, yes. Come fast,” the boy took her in. Ning smiled inside the necklace when he saw Anyaʼs 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, itʼs 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 treatment 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, some people had delayed their treatment 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 times.

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.

ʼTheyʼre certainly doing great work,ʼ Ning thought. Anya was at most a slight second slower than Ning at diagnosing the patients. That was something that surprised him a lot.

He had extremely great mental strength and had an eidetic memory and yet the little girl was giving him a run for his money when it came to understanding the patientʼs problem.

ʼShe really didnʼt waste her time with anything and just spent it cultivating and learning the medicine, didnʼt she?ʼ Ning thought.

He could understand why the people were starting to call her the ʼGoddess of Medicineʼ. She really was just that when it came to treating people.

ʼIf nothing bad ever happens, she will grow up to be a strong force in the cultivation world,ʼ Ning thought. Not only her, but even her brother would also become strong and knowledgeable in medicine. At that moment, the sister-brother duo would be unstoppable when it came to treating people.

ʼI should dump every knowledge I have to them,ʼ Ning thought.

Anya treated the various people for a whole day, and by the time 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. ”Letʼs go back to the sect.”

Anya, her brother, and the bodyguard all went back to the sect under the moonlight. Anyaʼs brother separated from them at the gate and walked towards a location that was for the discipleʼs family. He was still not old enough to be of age to enter the sect yet.

He would be next year, however, and he couldnʼt wait for that.

Anya returned back to her room. It was time to cultivate, but she couldnʼt. 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 came back.
