My apprentice is jealous I got a girlfriend
Sorry for the lack of screenshots, but I just had to make a post about it after the thought stewed in my brain for the last half hour.
I'm a new player, so I have next to no idea what I'm doing, but I enjoyed the game enough to get the DLCs, a fact that will come back later in the story.
I progressed through the game and happened to take an apprentice in Yong Ming before moving on to Hew Feng and she was super clingy. Like… obsessively clingy. A little creepy, but somewaht endearing. At least she wasn't feeding me elixirs and other valuables since she was below my realm for most of my run.
Anyways, so at some point, I was blitzing through the quests of those unique women until I randomly asked Lan You out, and she agreed. But as she agreed, that yandere ass apprentice pipes up with something like "if only he got the courage to ask me out" or something like that, and I was like woah… relax.
Then I checked, and it's not even possible to ask her out since she's my disciple. So what is that crazy girl on about?? Does this girl expect me to void her apprenticeship for this? Because sure, we're in the same realm now, but that's only because I built her from the ground up. Literally. She was using common and uncommon Qi Refining skills up until Qi Condensation… she was horrible.
Maybe it's my fault. Maybe I've given her too much attention. Maybe I've permitted this behavior of hers enough, so she thinks that these unrequited feelings are reciprocated. Poor girl…
On another note: as I was moving to a different sect in search of that hamlet that is leader-less(which apparently just didn't spawn for me… either that or I just advanced too fast to be able to join), this girl went with me and overtook me in the rankings! I only managed to reach disciple since my stats are dogwater for all other sects other than my first one, which is really sad, but she's already grand elder! The gull!!! But honestly, I'm proud. She showed me that my work is paying off. But the sect was terrible for me other than the sect treasury giving me some good stuff, so I dipped.
TL;DR: I accidentally nurtured a yandere and I'm proud of her achievements
