Chapter 147: Skin-to-skin contact, he couldn't do what he desperately wanted...
Chapter 147:
Chi Yu unconsciously stroked the ring on his hand. Only now did he realize that its texture was actually very similar to that of the phantom ring, both as translucent and lustrous as jade.
But it is more delicate and exquisite, and except for the slight traces at the joints, it is almost impossible to tell that it is a finger bone.
Senior Brother Xuan Ji, this is too crazy.
Chi Yu should have been scared, but at the moment he couldn't feel scared.
He even felt a hint of emotion that he dared not think about because of the madness displayed by Senior Brother Xuan Ji.
It is shaking, it is sinking, it is deeper... joy and sweetness.
Chi Yu: "..."
He pondered, wondering if he was also a pervert, as he actually felt sweet.
——Of course, he didn’t mean to say that Senior Brother Xuan Ji was a pervert.
Okay, that's a bit perverted.
Calm down, Chi Yu!
Chi Yu didn't say anything else. He just buried his head in the hole like an ostrich and avoided this matter for the time being.
They stayed in Yu Dynasty for two days, mainly to wait for Xiaoqiu's condition to stabilize.
But Xiaoqiu couldn't wake up for a while, and Chi Yu didn't say that he had to wait until he woke up.
He used the photo stone to record a "video" and asked Xiao Jingyu to wait for Xiaoqiu to wake up and give it to him.
And I owe Raven the spirit stones...
Chi Yu shamelessly went to find Alsophila and Qiye.
It had been so long since he came back, but Chi Yu had always forgotten to report his safety. In fact, this was also because five hundred years had passed. For a cultivator, this time was just a blink of an eye. After all, a cultivator would often go into seclusion for decades or even hundreds of years. Five hundred years was just five major retreats, which was really nothing.
But it was very long, long enough for one to reach several realms. It also spanned most of the life of an ordinary cultivator.
It was a bit weird to ask for money right away, so Chi Yu laid some groundwork.
Xie Xiyi stood beside him, arms folded, watching him fiddle with the jade talisman.
To be honest, this gaze was unusual. It was deeper than the one during the Xuanji period. It was both cold and eerie, yet extremely fiery.
Chi Yu's face turned red, his heart beat faster, and his hands and feet became weak when he was looked at.
He felt a sense of shame and anger, but this emotion seemed unable to be expressed freely, so he suppressed it and focused his attention on the jade talisman.
*
The continent of freedom.
"Brother!! Brother, something happened!" Qi Ye rushed into the refining room in a hurry.
Alsophila was absent-mindedly studying the newly acquired underground fire. When he heard Qiye's voice, he didn't take it seriously. "What's wrong?"
Qiye held the jade talisman in front of him, his face flushed as he said, "Look for yourself."
Alsophila said impatiently, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't keep me in suspense."
Qiye said: "Oh! Junior Brother Long is looking for us!"
Alsophila was stunned, put the earth fire back into the furnace, took the jade talisman, and saw the message from Junior Brother Long.
Alsophila said in disbelief, "Junior Brother Long is not dead?"
Qi Ye said, "Not only is he not dead, he even came to Zizaizhou some time ago. However, he came to see the Venerable Shangshan about something, so he didn't have time to talk to us."
This was of course Chi Yu's excuse, but Alsophila and Qiye had been in Zizaizhou for a long time and were still somewhat naive, so they believed it easily.
Alsophila could not help but be deeply moved. Thinking back to the time five hundred years ago, his deep affection for Junior Brother Long came to mind once again. "Alas, things have changed. Junior Brother Long is not dead, but Senior Brother Xuanji is..."
Alsophila Qiye was not actually familiar with Senior Brother Xuan Ji, but with Junior Brother Long as a lubricant, he was able to receive some kind and caring care from Senior Brother Xuan Ji in the end.
Qi Ye said: "Okay, don't think about it for now, quickly reply to Junior Brother Long."
Alsophila calmed down for a moment, gathered his emotions, and then replied to Junior Brother Long.
Soon he learned that Junior Brother Long needed spirit stones. He slapped his head and asked Qi Ye to bring the account book over.
The amount of spirit stones sold in the past five hundred years is not a small amount. Alsophila and Qiye have been implementing Chi Yu's business theory and even came up with the concept of the Supreme Edition.
Of course, this highly hierarchical concept doesn't work well in Zizai Continent. Even the Venerables prefer to use the basic version of the jade talisman.
Therefore, it can only be exported to other places, and the sales volume is naturally surprisingly good.
In short, Alsophila and Qiye are very rich, so rich that they dare not leave the continent casually.
Thanks to Junior Brother Long's favor with Roper, he has been able to live in peace until now.
Qiye asked, "Should we include the money we've contributed to Brother Zhiguan over the years?"
Alsophila cursed, "What's that? Are you so short-sighted? If it weren't for Junior Brother Long, we wouldn't be where we are today. You can't be so heartless."
Qi Ye felt wronged. "I was just asking you. I didn't mean to be included in this. But even brothers have to settle accounts. We still have to sort it out clearly."
Alsophila said, "The spirit stones we spent over the past five hundred years supporting Zhiguan to become the Tianyan Sect's leader were all paid for by us. There's no need to let Junior Brother Long know. Also, Junior Brother Long doesn't need to know about Senior Brother Xuanji's family affairs. Junior Brother Long is still too weak. Given his relationship with Senior Brother Xuanji, he'd probably lose his mind if he knew."
Qi Ye said: "I know, but I won't tell Junior Brother Long."
Chi Yu also received a reply smoothly.
Alsophila and Qiye passed him a copy of the five hundred-year account book.
Chi Yu said bluntly, "I trust you. There's no need to look at the account books. If you don't even have this little bit of trust, why would I bother looking for you?"
Alsophila laughed and said, "Let's put things in perspective. Even brothers have to settle accounts."
Chi Yu quickly glanced at the account book with his spiritual sense.
It’s not a big deal to see it, but it makes people dumbfounded after seeing it.
In the past five hundred years, the wealth from selling jade talismans has reached an astonishing level.
A thousand top-grade spirit stones were nothing to him. He didn't even care about ten thousand top-grade spirit stones.
The two brothers Alsophila and Qiye filled a Sumeru ring with top-grade spirit stones and sent it to a wild land by a flying monster.
When Chi Yu got the Sumeru Ring, he was dazzled by the huge mountain of top-grade spirit stones piled up inside.
That unintentional act back then actually created such a huge fortune for him.
Chi Yu was overwhelmed with emotion and generously paid off the remaining debt and gave an extra thousand top-grade spirit stones.
Raven was shocked and asked him, "Where did you get so many top-grade spirit stones?"
Chi Yuyun said calmly, "Don't ask me about this. Brother Raven, you just need to know that you saved Xiaoqiu and you have it for the rest of your life. I will never treat you unfairly."
The raven said, "In that case, give me another thousand spirit stones."
Chi Yu: "...You are pushing it too far."
The raven said, "Since you are so arrogant, how can I not give you some face?"
Chi Yu laughed and gave another thousand without hesitation.
Spirit stones are indeed very important materials for cultivation, but to him, they are not of much value.
He has been practicing for such a long time, but he has never used ten top-grade spirit stones. It can be said that he is extremely frugal with spirit stones.
When he thought of this, he suddenly felt a little dazed—it had been almost two years since he came to "Shentu".
Time flies, and he has become so accustomed to picking up the sword to kill and fight.
After resolving the debt issue, he and Xie Xiyi left the Yu Dynasty.
He also sent a message to Wu Yunsu, telling him that Xiaoqiu was still alive and recuperating in the Yu Dynasty palace in the wilderness.
Wu Yunsu received the message and read it several times in disbelief.
It was clearly five hundred years ago, but when he thought of his weakness back then, he still felt a little pain and resentment in his heart.
Countless poisonous insects crawled out from the dead bodies on the ground and returned to his body.
He looked at the Immortal Alliance cultivators, whose swords were shaking and terrified, and smiled beautifully. "I'll let you go today. Go back and tell Taixuzi to clean his head and wait."
After saying that, without even looking at them, he turned into a streak of light and flew towards the direction of the wilderness.
Xiaoqiu, it’s great that you’re still alive.

Chi Yu asked Xie Xiyi, "Brother Xuanji, where are we going now? Should we continue to Wanqiongzhou to rescue your family members?"
Xie Xiyi looked at the changing clouds in the sky and said, "No."
Chi Yu was stunned. "Not going? Why?"
Xie Xiyi smiled softly and said, "Why do you think the Xie family, despite possessing forbidden spells, still ended up being imprisoned and having their marrow drained?"
Chi Yu was shocked: "What? Can everyone in the Xie family use forbidden spells?"
Xie Xiyi turned his dark mask towards him, "Don't you know?"
Chi Yu said: "I don't know!!"
Xie Xiyi said, "Now you know. Anyone who knows this secret will either die or become a member of the Xie family. Do you want to die, or do you want to become one of us?"
Chi Yu: "..."
Xie Xiyi laughed, "Of course you are one of us."
"..." Chi Yu tried hard to change the subject, "So your family knows all the forbidden spells?"
Xie Xiyi said: "Yes. But there is still a price to pay."
Chi Yu asked: "So why don't they use it?"
Xie Xiyi said: "They are gambling."
Chi Yu was getting more and more confused. "What are you betting on?"
Xie Xiyi laughed, a hint of sarcasm lingering in his laughter. "It's like gambling on the possibility of a reversal of the predetermined fate."
Chi Yu: "Senior Brother Xuan Ji, I don't understand."
Xie Xiyi suddenly approached him. He was so tall that once he got close to Chi Yu, his huge shadow could cover Chi Yu completely.
So oppressive and aggressive.
After facing up to his feelings for Senior Brother Xuan Ji, Chi Yu looked at Xie Xiyi again and found that he no longer seemed like a reliable senior brother, but rather... a beast with a more predatory temperament.
This scene, which was so commonplace before, now made Chi Yu shudder. The hairs on his body stood up and he couldn't help but step back.
But before he could take a few steps back, Xie Xiyi reached out and grabbed his shoulder. He said in a low, hoarse voice, "Why are you... running?"
Chi Yu swallowed, smiled brightly, and said nonchalantly, "I didn't run away."
Xie Xiyi laughed softly. This way of laughing was not unique to Xie Xiyi in the Xuanji period, but more like Xie Xiyi in the Moxin period.
At this moment, Chi Yu finally accepted the fact that they were indeed the same person.
Obviously, they are closely intertwined with each other, and their ways of thinking and behavior patterns have gradually converged.
"Are you afraid?" Xie Xiyi asked with a low laugh, "What are you afraid of?"
Chi Yu opened his eyes wide, "I'm not afraid..."
"Not scared?" Xie Xiyi lowered his head, the cold mask pressed against Chi Yu's forehead. "No, why are you shaking?"
Chi Yu: "..."
Because now you look like a ruthless character who will pounce on me without saying a word and stab me in the ass at the same time.
"I can't." Xie Xiyi laughed even louder, "Have you forgotten? I'm covered in poison. I can't do it even if I want to."
Chi Yu was shocked, "How do you know what I'm thinking?"
Xie Xiyi said, "It's clearly written on your face."
He had read Chi Yu's book of state of mind and knew that what he cared about most was physical chastity.
What a foolish man! In the world of cultivation, spiritual intercourse is enough to rob a person of everything, but he insists on maintaining physical chastity.
Ridiculous...and cute.
Therefore, Xie Xiyi also wanted it.
He desperately wanted the physique that Chi Yu cared about.
But, he couldn't do it now.
He couldn't even do skin-to-skin contact.
