"So, you want me to stay here and let you manipulate me, abandoning my self-respect and groveling like a dog to complete the disgusting tasks you assign me?"
The system chuckled, "However, you also received corresponding rewards from my place, didn't you?"
Our transaction was supposed to be fair, and you shouldn't have broken our agreement before it was completed. This is causing me a lot of trouble.
Shen Zhao: "And what kind of deal are you referring to? Is it Hohhot or Ulaanbaatar? You've even severely restricted the right to resist."
Is disobeying the will punish me with divine lightning that ravages my heart? Am I just a puppet on your strings, with you dictating my life?
I admit that I have benefited greatly from your help; without it, I could not have achieved such great things.
However, you don't need to act so noble. Can you honestly say you didn't get what you wanted from me? Probably more than you gave me.
For any normal person, one such humiliating death is enough. But I've endured it nine times. I believe I've repaid all my debts to you.
You should no longer exist in this world. You should go to another dimension to find a suitable host. Let's part ways amicably.
"Parting amicably? You make it sound so easy."
The system's tone gradually turned cold.
"You are the most suitable host I have found in this vast world after billions of years. You just want to leave?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't you understand? Why can't the myriad Dao Bone Saint Bodies be integrated into your body, but you have the power to suppress them? You don't really think your body is too ordinary, so ordinary that it can contend with a terrifying force like the Nine Netherworlds?"
Shen Zhao frowned, clearly sensing that the system's words had a hidden meaning.
But the system changed the subject: "Host, let me ask you, is the girl the system asked you to seduce beautiful?"
Shen Zhao remained silent, staring coldly at the system.
"Silence means consent. Then let me ask you again, you haven't gained her approval in nine lifetimes, are you really content with that?"
"Stop with your nonsense. Such low-level rhetoric won't sway my emotions. Agreeing to bind myself to you is the most fucking regrettable decision I've ever made."
"Give me a second chance, and I'll strangle you the moment you're done, you bastard!"
"Is that so? Then why did you give Yu Xiyan the Innate Dao Body again, and even give her two extra Dragon Essences? Admit it, you still harbor a strong obsession with her!"
"Her ruthlessness towards me does not mean that the Yintian Dynasty is ruthless towards me. Do you think that in this life I will be like your previous inhabitants, turning to the dark side because of unrequited love, becoming an enemy of the world, and finally falling into an abyss of no return under your gaze?"
Shen Zhao's words were full of sarcasm: "Do you know the history of World War II on Earth? What was the consequence of fascism fighting against the whole world? Do you need me to explain it to you?"
"Hahaha, very good. In this second life, you are still the host I know. I am relieved that you have such a strong will. After all, you are the most perfect host I have found in the vast world. Once I return to your body, I will surely reach an even greater peak."
"You think you still have a chance to return to my body?" Shen Zhao sneered.
"You will agree. You actually had countless opportunities to complete the mission, but you chose the most difficult path."
Do you remember when you attacked the Nine Netherworlds, I created the best opportunity for you? The Nine Netherworld Demon Lord placed the Myriad Paths of Slavery Scripture before you. As long as you could cultivate it, and then imprint the slave mark on Yu Xiyan's soul the moment she relaxed her guard,
You could easily capture Yu Xiyan's heart, and then she would belong to you alone, body and soul. But in order to focus on dealing with the Nine Netherworld, you actually turned your back and cultivated the Dao Heart Demon Seed, which even the Demon Realm Emperor avoided.
Do you remember when Yu Xiyan was at her lowest point, the Chaos Yin-Yang Technique I gave you? It was a divine-level dual cultivation technique.
This already implies that you can directly possess her body and soul if necessary, since with Yu Xiyan's strength, even a perfectly formed innate Dao body cannot resist you.
However, you have once again impressed me. Relying solely on your own strength, you risked your life to plunge into the Yin-Yang Cliff, allowing the Yin and Yang energies to forcefully infuse your Qi Sea and divine consciousness, braving the risk of death and the dissipation of your Dao, to refine this dual cultivation technique into an even more powerful and supreme Dao principle.
There are countless examples like this, but you've missed so many good opportunities to plan your strategy, so how can you blame me?
However, the more you act this way, the more this system appreciates you. So, could you allow me to return to your body?
"And then do it your way, using such despicable means to achieve your goal? Just thinking about it makes me feel disgusted."
"Is that really what you think?"
"Is there another possibility? Perhaps I never wanted to complete the task you assigned me? And that my remaining eight lifetimes were spent pondering how to escape your manipulation?"
"Using your life to resist the tasks this system has given you?"
"Sometimes a person's persistence can unleash unexpected energy. Even I myself can't believe it. Suddenly one day I felt that compared to living aimlessly, I would rather die with dignity."
After a long silence, the system spoke again: "Host, do you know why you can't use the spiritual energy within your body?"
Shen Zhao frowned: "Was this your doing?"
The system looked completely innocent: "No, host, you probably don't know, from the moment you detached me from your body..."
You now possess the power of nine lifetimes of cultivation fused together, and also half the power of the system. However, this world cannot withstand the high-dimensional power within you.
Therefore, before the time reversal, I made some tampering and set a seal deep within your dantian. Without my methods, even if a god-emperor from the celestial realm were to descend, they would not be able to break it.
