200: Long Yi and the system dialogue
Nan Zhisui said in surprise, "Wow, that's amazing?!"
"Mm!"
Chi Xiao leaned over, and Nan Zhisui rubbed his totem.
Then, the large totem instantly turned its back, its face turning completely red.
"..." Nan Zhisui tilted her head, looking at him.
The Chi Xiao totem's face turned even redder.
After being together for so long, Chi Xiao was still so innocent.
After a while, once the totem felt the heat on its face subside a little, it slowly moved back to snuggle with her.
The large Male acted spoiled, "female master, did you come to the space to find me this time?"
"Mm," Nan Zhisui said. "Chi Xiao, can you come to Myriad Beast City to meet me?"
"Of course, no problem!" Chi Xiao's voice rose slightly, sounding as if he couldn't wait. "Wait for me, I'll fly over right away!"
His tone sounded as if he wanted to teleport to Nan Zhisui's side instantly.
Nan Zhisui laughed softly.
Chi Xiao sat warmly pressed against her... The matter of the beast god could not be delayed.
She had to find a way to get the beast god's heart and then leave.
She hadn't found it after so many days; what should she do?
Just as she was about to think of a way, an opportunity arrived.
Nan Zhisui caught a Cold and developed a fever... Long Yi returned to the Priest Hall after handling matters outside.
As he walked, he lowered his head and asked a Little Priest, "How is Sage Zhi Nan today?"
The Little Priest said with some worry, "Lord, the Sage hasn't left her room all day, and she hasn't eaten the food we sent over."
Long Yi's expression darkened. He strode into his palace, and upon seeing Nan Zhisui's small figure curled up on the bed, he walked over quickly.
Nan Zhisui felt as if she were swallowing razor blades.
Her face was very hot, her breathing was dry and burning, and she was already starting to talk nonsense.
Long Yi's large hand pressed against her forehead, and he immediately shouted, "Go and call the Great Witch Doctor!"
In the Beast World, a fever was no minor illness; many beastmen had lost their lives because they couldn't survive one.
Before long, the Great Witch Doctor of Myriad Beast City hurried over.
He peeled back Nan Zhisui's eyelids to look, then observed her complexion and breathing.
Afterward, the Witch Doctor and Long Yi stepped out of the palace, and the doctor whispered, "Sage Zhi Nan likely caught a chill and developed a Cold."
"A Cold and fever?"
The Witch Doctor took out a Beast-horn plate and said, "High Priest, Scraping the back can reduce the fever. Should I do it, or will you?"
Long Yi grabbed the Beast-horn plate, his steady movements carrying a hint of panic. "I'll do it."
The Witch Doctor left.
Long Yi returned to Nan Zhisui's side with the Scraping plate, turned her over, and intended to lift her shirt.
The patient on the bed grabbed his wrist with her burning small hand.
Her eyes were bloodshot, making her look like a small beast, pitiful and helpless.
"Zhi Nan, I'm giving you a Scraping treatment to cure your illness. Be good."
Nan Zhisui did not let go of his hand; she shook her head.
"I am a Witch Doctor myself, I can treat myself..."
She had Ibuprofen in her space; she just hadn't taken it yet.
Long Yi was amused by her stubbornness. "You're a Witch Doctor too?"
Nan Zhisui nodded with a flushed face, "Mm, the illness needs time to run its course. It will be better in a few days."
She couldn't let him see her back; if he saw her back, he would quickly realize she was a Female.
She was burning hot.
Long Yi stared at her hand holding his. He frowned.
But in the end, he did not force her.
"Fine."
He released Nan Zhisui and left the hall, returning a while later with witch medicine to feed her.
Nan Zhisui drank it obediently.
She felt quite miserable and lay down.
Looking at this little stubborn thing in such pain, Long Yi's heart was filled with dense waves of pity and helplessness.
Feeling a bit overwhelmed, Long Yi impulsively turned and left, walking to a corner of the room.
From the corner of her eye, she saw Long Yi open a secret room.
Nan Zhisui immediately rolled off the bed.
She quickly swallowed an Ibuprofen pill and followed him, feeling light-headed.
She followed Long Yi into the secret room.
Inside the secret room was a floating electronic light orb. She quickly masked her presence and hid behind a stone wall.
Then, she heard the sound of Long Yi talking to the light orb.
Long Yi spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I need a dose of specialized medicine to treat a Cold and fever."
Nan Zhisui's hands suddenly clenched. This High Priest really was involved with the System?
The light orb flickered, "That's not difficult. Long Yi, have you handled everything on your end?"
Long Yi fell silent. "The beast gods physical body was stolen."
The light orb accused him in shock: "Long Yi, you actually let the beast gods physical body be stolen?"
Long Yi's eyes suddenly darkened, his Aura becoming terrifyingly powerful. "System Main God, you and I are only in a cooperative relationship. I get what I want, and I give you what you want. I am not your subordinate."
The light orb chuckled twice and said, "Forget it, the beast god is already dead. The Physical Body is useless even if it's stolen. You still have the beast god's heart sealed, right?"
Long Yi looked up and said, "Of course, the beast god's heart has always been sealed."
Nan Zhisui's eyelids twitched.
"To seize the beast god's power, the Physical Body, the heart, and the Divinity are all indispensable."
Long Yi said coldly, "The beast god sealed his Divinity within the God's Space. I cannot open the God's Space. Now that the beast gods physical body has been stolen, if you still don't come to the Beast World... Main God System, your grand plan might fail."
The light orb flickered slightly: "You don't need to worry about that. Since this is a major matter for both of us, I will certainly come to help you. You are my best ally."
"However..."
The light orb flickered as it spoke: "An error has occurred with the host of my subordinate, System 006, preventing System 006 from returning. I must now fix this error. Long Yi, go and eliminate the host of 006."
Nan Zhisui's expression changed rapidly.
Li Yun was hiding at the bottom of the Mining Area, and System 006 couldn't find her. As a result, a bug occurred, and System 006 couldn't return smoothly.
This explanation was very similar to what her brother, Nan Zhinian, called a game glitch or bug.
It seemed that dealing with minor Systems really could be done by creating bugs.
But... dealing with minor Systems was useless. If 006 was deployed, 007 could be deployed; if 007 was deployed, 008 could be deployed.
The important thing was still to kill the Main God System.
But the Main God System wasn't in the Beast World at all.
To kill the Main God System, she had to lure it into the Beast World.
Nan Zhisui's pupils contracted slightly.
She suddenly realized that what Long Yi was doing right now was perfect.
She only had to wait for Long Yi to lure the Main God System into the Beast World, and then she and the beast god would find a way to kill it!
Nan Zhisui: "..."
Nan Zhisui suddenly had a moment of hesitation.
Then she heard the conversation inside continue.
The Black Dragon Male refused coldly: "I do not kill Females."
The light orb flickered with laughter, "Fine. I have three days left. I will descend to the Beast World in three days and resolve this error personally. Long Yi, when that time comes, I will help you become a god!"
After saying this, the light orb went out, leaving a pill for him.
He had tested it on sick beastmen before.
The System's medicine was very advanced—specialized medicine that could cure someone with just one pill.
Long Yi held the medicine and stared at it for a while.
Nan Zhisui got goosebumps.
Long Yi wouldn't be thinking of giving me the System's medicine, would he? She definitely couldn't take that.
Nan Zhisui quickly retreated and lay back on the bed, pondering what to do.
After Long Yi came out with the pill, he walked to Nan Zhisui's side.
He looked down at her small, feverish face and reached out to touch it gently.
Her face was very hot and unexpectedly soft.
But... as he gripped the medicine in his hand, he ultimately hesitated.
Just as Nan Zhisui thought he was going to give her the pill, he suddenly withdrew his hand.
He strode out of the palace, crushing the pill given by the System into powder.
He did not give her the medicine from the System.
