Chapter 11 It's all because of you

Qiu Chi may be foolish, but Ren Qiu Shui will not.

She looked at Fang Nian: "Back then, no one else was allowed to get close to you, but you allowed me to."

"Is it because I look like her?"

Fang Nian nodded in acknowledgment.

Ren Qiushui looks very much like Qingqing.

Or rather, Ren Qiushui and Fang Nian's wife from his previous life looked very alike!

Ren Qiushui stared at Qingqing, and Qingqing was also staring at Ren Qiushui.

Ren Qiushui liked to wear a red dress.

Qingqing was wearing Ren Qiushui's clothes. Of course, the clothes were actually worn by Fang Nian, but when projected, the details were exactly the same.

Sensing Qingqing's gaze, Ren Qiushui paused for a moment before asking, "Can she think?"

All inner demons must disperse their consciousness and initial demonic energy to form a demonic entity before they can form a demonic star and be summoned to fight.

Why don't we need to follow this ironclad rule?

Before Fang Nian could speak, Qingqing stepped forward and stood in front of Ren Qiushui, scrutinizing him closely: "Wow, you actually found a woman."

"Are you the red-clad woman who often uses the Demon Cloud Hand technique on my brother?"

Although Qingqing's memories were blurry, she was certain that the Ren Qiushui in front of her was almost identical to the woman in her memory.

Qiu Chi looked at the scene and didn't know what to say.

Fang Nian sat down: "Bring the dishes over, let them chat."

"There's no rush to cultivate."

Ren Qiushui and Qingqing naturally harbored hostility towards each other. Seeing Fang Nian sit down to eat, Ren Qiushui said, "The so-called inner demon is a person's weakness."

"When you overcome a weakness, you become stronger."

"Back then, I was timid and bound by thorns. After refining this inner demon, I gained a powerful demonic ability, [Forbidden Protection]."

"Perhaps you can try to refine her; maybe then you can overcome what is called a split personality."

From a cultivation perspective, this is feasible.

Train where you are weak.

You'll become stronger if you train.

Overcoming the secondary personalities that emerge from dissociative identity disorder might cure dissociative identity disorder.

But that's impossible.

Because it was rejected from the very beginning of the process.

Fang Nian's alternate personality was created to protect him.

Refining a secondary personality is essentially denying the crises one has encountered.

At the age of thirteen, Fang Nian was almost killed by the Demonic Sect and turned into a demonic artifact, which is how he developed his first personality. If we want to deny this crisis, does that mean we should think that the Demonic Sect's attempt to kill him back then was to help him improve?

That's so despicable!

From the very beginning, this logic did not work for Fang Nian.

Fang Nian's problem lies in being too humane.

Qingqing glanced at Ren Qiushui, who had suggested refining her, then turned to Fang Nian: "She's a mistress, you should break up with her."

Ren Qiushui: "Fang Nian said that I am not a mistress."

Qingqing apologized: "I'm sorry, I misspoke."

"It doesn't even rank third."

At this moment, Fang Nian buried her face in her rice bowl and started shoveling food into it.

Ren Qiushui glanced back at Fang Nian and seemed to understand.

In Fang Nian's complex inner world, he not only has children and a wife, but also other women.

Although he was still a child when all of this happened, that doesn't mean they were the ones who came first.

Ren Qiushui realized what was going on: "Why be jealous of a fictitious, non-existent consciousness?"

Qingqing: "Really? But I'm standing right in front of you right now. Are you sure I'm just an illusion, that I don't exist?"

With Qiu Chi present, Ren Qiu Shui couldn't explain it clearly, but she had probably already figured it out.

Fang Nian must have cultivated the "Soul Splitting Technique" and succeeded.

Ren Qiushui's hand brushed past Qingqing: "See? You don't exist. Even if Fang Nian absorbed the demonic energy and refined you into someone who could truly exist in this world."

"That's not you either, but just a demon formed from the aggregation of demonic energy."

Qingqing pointed at Fang Nian: "It's no use you persuading me, you have to persuade him."

Fang Nian looked up at Qiu Chi with a disappointed expression: "I haven't eaten in seven years. Do you know how much I've been looking forward to this meal?"

Qiu Chi: "?"

Fang Nian: "If you were to open a food truck on the roadside and charge more than ten yuan for a single dish, I would call the police."

Qiu Chi reached for the bowl: "If you don't like it, don't eat it!"

Fang Nian grabbed Qiu Chi's hand, and with her other hand lifted the bowl: "Although it tastes bad, it's edible."

Qiu Chi withdrew her hand, hugging herself tightly: "Hmph!"

Seeing Fang Nian still flirting with women, Qingqing's resentment suddenly erupted.

The palpable resentment startled Qiu Chi.

For some reason, this demon who looked exactly like him suddenly became hideous without any change in appearance.

At this moment, Qingqing looked at Fang Nian and asked, "Do you want a divorce, or do you want to break up with her?"

In the past, this problem would have been a fatal one.

The problem is... Fang Nian continued eating: "We can't separate right now."

Fang Nian, who was lucid, knew that Qingqing was her alternate personality, but Qingqing was not lucid at this moment.

It seemed that only one of them, Qingqing and himself, could remain calm.

This relationship is so dramatic, it's exactly like a past life, it's practically supernatural.

After realizing she couldn't use this to blackmail Fang Nian, the resentment in Qingqing's eyes materialized.

She was dissatisfied with everything.

Fang Nian suddenly looked up at Qingqing: "Hmm?"

Ren Qiushui noticed Fang Nian's expression and immediately became interested: "Such powerful resentment must have activated some kind of innate ability."

"Most people never find their magic talent points in their entire lives."

"But you must have noticed something, right? What is it?"

Fang Nian slowly opened her mouth and uttered just two words: "nitpicking."

nitpicking?

Ren Qiushui was puzzled.

Fang Nian: "She's in this state right now, dissatisfied with everything, which I call 'it's all because of you.'"

"Once 'It's All Because of You' is activated, she can see the flaws in everything around her."

Ren Qiushui stared wide-eyed.

What kind of divine ability is this?!

Find all the weaknesses? Is it that powerful? When two equally matched opponents fight, if one side can find the other's weaknesses, it can instantly kill the opponent.

This is an invincible game-changer!

Qiu Chi exclaimed in astonishment, "How is this possible! How could someone possess such an ability? If that were the case, wouldn't they be invincible?"

Fang Nian: "I haven't finished yet. There's a side effect to this state."

"Control desire".

"In this state, or rather, if I want her to enter this state to discover the enemy's weaknesses, it will activate her desire for control, and she will want to manipulate me."

Qiu Chi and Ren Qiushui exchanged a glance.

Demonic entity, controlling the main body?

Isn't this going mad?!

However, Fang Nian's description should be different from being possessed by a demon, since being possessed by a demon is uncontrollable, while the state he mentioned, "It's all because of you," should be able to be canceled.

Ren Qiushui: "When the 'It's all because of you' state is not activated, does she have any other abilities? Does she have any artifact states?"

Each of Ren Qiushui's magical artifacts has an object form.

For example, the item 【秋水长天】 is a sword.

When this magical artifact state is activated, Ren Qiushui's main body will receive a significant boost when using the sword.

Fang Nian sensed it for a moment: "There really is."

"When the 'It's all because of you' tactic isn't activated, she can share anything with me, including all injuries and pain."

"But when the 'It's all because of you' state is activated, she not only fails to share my injuries and pain, but also aggravates my pain, causing the pain to recur."

Ren Qiushui: "A double-edged sword."

Fang Nian scratched his head: "Maybe."

After entering this state for the first time, Qingqing was stunned for a moment before the two could communicate. Once she came to her senses, Qingqing exclaimed, "It's all because of you!"

"If you hadn't suddenly died, how could our family have suddenly become like this!"

"Look at other people's husbands, and then look at yourself!"

"If it weren't for you finding this woman, I wouldn't have..."

Before she could start rambling on, Fang Nian exited the "It's all because of you" status.

The resentment in Qingqing dissipated, and she returned to a normal state.

Of course, even in normal human form, Qingqing and Ren Qiushui, two extremely similar women, harbored hostility towards each other.

Ren Qiushui turned to Qingqing and asked, "Has your consciousness changed in any way?"

After thinking carefully, Qingqing shook her head: "No."

Ren Qiushui's eyes lit up: "Each magic attribute will greatly enhance your abilities. After you have the second magic attribute, you should be able to kill three of yourselves who haven't activated their magic attributes."

"Since becoming a demon doesn't affect her consciousness, can Zazai also become a demon?"

Qingqing was instantly enraged: "You shameless woman! Not only did you interfere in someone else's family, you even set your sights on their daughter! You wicked stepmother!"

Ren Qiushui looked at Fang Nian: "Only with great strength can you protect the baby. If you are not strong enough, you will not be able to protect the baby when you can hardly protect yourself."

"If using my abilities after becoming a demonic being will affect my child, then I'll just not use them."

Fang Nian thought it made sense: "It seems to make a lot of sense."

Qingqing: "You..."

Ren Qiushui interrupted, "Fang Nian and I are husband and wife now."

Fang Nian: "I forgot to mention, she's not conscious when I'm conscious. If you want to talk to Qingqing, wait until I'm completely lost. Qingqing should come out then, and you can talk then."

Ren Qiushui then understood Fang Nian's situation: "So, your Wu Nian appeared at the cost of half or even all of the thoughts of other personalities?"

To be completely mindful is to be completely insane; to be without mindfulness is to not be insane.

But at the same time, someone has to be crazy.

However, Fang Nian, who is without thoughts, can choose not to summon the other two personalities.

However... when using magic, it must be summoned.

Ren Qiushui: "Summon the little one out and see what abilities she has. Even if she doesn't have any great abilities, it would be great if she could protect herself in battle so you wouldn't have to worry about her."

After she finished speaking, Ren Qiushui was stunned.

What nonsense am I spouting? Why do I need to take care of my inner demons? After a while, I really started to treat my child as an independent person.

Fang Nian had no objection: "Let's give it a try."
