Chapter 39 I can only promise you my body
Chi Yu rarely encountered such a situation. When he thought about it carefully, although he had many friends, he would never say something like "You are my best friend" which could easily stir up trouble. He never made such a definition lightly.
But the prince is indeed special.
In life, he's always been the one to care for his friends, and few others seem to care about him. This is partly because he's strong and capable enough to not need help. Also, he's emotionally resilient and resilient enough to rarely feel frustrated or sad, so his friends aren't his main source of support.
Chi Yu is always surrounded by many people, but he is their center, relied upon and relied upon by them. He is also used to solving problems for his friends.
The reason why the prince is special is that this is the first time that Chi Yu has been cared for and concerned by an outsider, who is thoughtful and considerate in every way and cares about him sincerely.
Chi Yu did not think that the prince's mockery of him for not working hard was malicious, nor was the prince fulfilling his duties as a senior brother - the meaning of senior brother in Zen Buddhism was too superficial, and he had no responsibility to teach his junior brothers. He taught and guided him in this way only because he had a heartfelt hope for his best.
Moreover, Chi Yu could feel from Senior Brother Xuan Ji that as long as he was with him, he would be safe.
In front of Senior Brother Xuan Ji, he didn't seem that powerful, and he could rely on someone.
In front of Senior Brother Xuan Ji, although he is weak, he is also expected to become stronger. He is not just protected. This is respect and love.
Chi Yu liked this kind of prince, and perhaps he noticed this from the beginning, so he inadvertently said in a joking tone, "I regard you as my best friend."
Logically, he would not say such controversial words, but he said it anyway.
It seemed that his intuition recognized the true friendship between them earlier than his emotions.
Chi Yu figured this out and couldn't help but laugh. He said calmly and frankly, "I haven't told anyone else this. I've always told you this—although I told Xiaoqiu, I was actually talking to you, Brother Xuanji."
His tone became serious, "Senior Brother Xuanji, you are indeed my best friend in this world, no doubt about it."
Xie Xiyi seemed unmoved: "If you keep doing this, sooner or later you'll be eaten by others until not even a bone is left."
Chi Yu was about to say something when Xie Xiyi interrupted him, "No need to say anything more, just follow me out."
Chi Yu: “…Oh.”
Xie Xiyi turned and left, Chi Kuaile followed him happily. She seemed to catch a glimpse of a smile on his lips in her peripheral vision, but when she turned her head to take a closer look, he was nowhere to be seen.
Paradise City was in chaos at this time.
The darkness hidden beneath the calm lake surfaced, and all desires were exposed. Many monks on the street began to fight, and the sound of spiritual energy exploding was everywhere in the air. Chi Yu had just walked out of the gate of Paradise Palace and was almost hit by a ball of black flame. It was Xie Xiyi who grabbed the back of his collar and pulled him away, so that he was spared.
Chi Yu watched as the black flames smashed a deep hole in the golden jade floor tiles. He was still terrified and turned to Xie Xiyi and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Xuanji, you saved my life again."
Xie Xiyi raised the corner of his lips and asked, "How are you going to repay me?"
Seeing the smile on his lips, Chi Yu couldn't help but laugh as well, saying, "My benefactor, you are so kind and generous. I have no way to repay you, so I can only offer you my body. I hope you won't despise me."
"..." Xie Xiyi glanced at him with his golden eyes, and his smile faded. "Nonsense."
Chi Yu raised an eyebrow and pretended to be aggrieved. "It seems that my benefactor despises me. There is nothing I can do. I can only serve you like a slave in my next life."
Xie Xiyi: "..."
Chi Yu withdrew his magical powers and asked Xie Xiyi, "Senior Brother Xuanji, what should we do now?"
Xie Xiyi said calmly, "Meet up with Xiaoqiu, and then wait."
Chi Yu was stunned for a moment and agreed.
Xie Xiyi raised his arm, looked at Chi Yu, and raised his chin slightly towards him.
Chi Yu: "?"
Xie Xiyi shook his wrist gently, "Hold it."
Chi Yu reached out blankly and held his hand.
Xie Xiyi said expressionlessly: "Sleeves."
Chi Yu: “…Oh.”
He let go of Xie Xiyi's hand and held Xie Xiyi's broad green sleeve.
Xie Xiyi turned into a stream of light and flew towards the restaurant where the ball was.
The room where the ball is located has restrictions set by Xie Xiyi. It is difficult to break through unless you are in the Nascent Soul stage.
When Xie Xiyi and Chi Yu returned, some monks had gathered outside the room and tried to break through the restriction by force. Xie Xiyi simply drew out his sword and killed them all with lightning speed.
Blood splattered all over Chi Yu. He opened his mouth and finally used the Dust Cleansing Technique to clean his body.
The barrier was broken, and Xiaoqiu ran out holding the sword. "Your Highness, Brother Aotian, are you all okay? These monks are crazy, all crazy, they kill anyone they see! Luckily, I always believed that Your Highness would come back to save me, otherwise I would have peed my pants long ago."
After hearing what he said, Chi Yu lowered his head to look at him, but saw that he had a smiling face and did not look afraid at all.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, after all, he is a child who grew up in the world of cultivation. His calmness in the face of a mountain collapse is enough for him to learn for several years.
Xie Xiyi said, "The Heart-Searching Lotus has drawn out the evil spirits from these cultivators. Now they have already seeped into their spiritual realms and are beyond repair."
As he spoke, the corners of his lips curled up, and there was a hint of joy in his voice, "However, the owner can't let this fruit, which is about to mature, rot. Let's wait a little longer."
After he said that, he stepped into the room, walked to the windowsill, opened the window, and looked out leisurely.
Chi Yu looked at his back and was suddenly stunned.
At this moment, the feeling the prince gave him was once again the same as that of the villain Xie Xiyi.
He remembered that his classmates had said that Senior Brother Xuan Ji could only achieve the status of a Buddhist disciple if he got rid of his rebellious nature, evil heart, and paranoia.
He never understood what the so-called rebelliousness, evil heart, and paranoia were.
But at this moment, he actually subtly sensed a sense of incongruity.
Chi Yu has always believed that Buddhists are compassionate. After all, compassion, forbearance, and precepts are the basic rules of Buddhism.
But does the prince really have compassion? Of course he does, but it seems he only has compassion for those he likes.
He might be very narrow-minded, otherwise he wouldn't have looked down on Senior Brother Qingxuan from the beginning.
In Paradise City, he could watch so many monks die - it wasn't a moral kidnapping, but a natural indifference, even a kind of beast-like pleasure.
What is he enjoying? He is enjoying the hunt, as the prey is about to stumble into his fangs according to the path he has imagined.
This is the joy of the hunt's imminent success.
This point also subtly overlaps with the villain Xie Xiyi.
Chi Yu felt a chill on his back, and his throat slid open a few times. He suddenly thought of something else.
Why did he come five hundred years ago?
He always believed that this difference in time had its inevitable reason for existence, because this was the world of a novel, and the world of a novel was manipulated by many hands. So what was manipulating it?
He went back five hundred years, and there must be a mission he should complete.
And if it was his system that allowed him to go back to the past, then his goal should still be to seize the villain's luck and kill the villain.
But the villain is clearly five hundred years later. Whether in "Shen Tu" or the Xie Xiyi he can see in reality, he is not very old and has always been in the Jindan realm.
No, no, no, he was trapped in a fixed mindset. Who knew that the Xie Xiyi in the book and the one he could see was definitely the real Xie Xiyi?
Even if they are both in the Golden Core Realm, there is still a time difference of five hundred years between them. However, the world of cultivation is so vast that there are all kinds of things. Seals and restrictions can be used to ignore this five hundred year time difference.
Although it is an established fact that the Jindan realm cannot change its body shape, but Xie Xiyi knows forbidden techniques! He knows forbidden techniques, and anything impossible in his hands will become possible!
Chi Yu's heart was pounding. He reached out and grabbed Xiaoqiu's arm, then opened his mouth and said, "Xiaoqiu."
Xiaoqiu looked up at him with a smile on his face. The child who remained calm even after seeing the corpses of several monks, always looked cute and well-behaved in front of Chi Yu. "Brother Aotian, what's wrong?"
Chi Yu couldn't transmit sound, so he could only lower his voice and whisper in his ear, "Xiaoqiu, do you know what your prince's name is in the mortal world?"
It was wrong of him to doubt Senior Brother Xuan Ji, but… but it shouldn’t be a big deal to ask, right?
Xiaoqiu blinked, and imitating Chi Yu, whispered in his ear, "Brother Aotian, why do you want to know this?"
Chi Yu was about to continue speaking when Xie Xiyi's voice came over, "What are you mumbling about?"
Xiaoqiu didn't think Chi Yu's question was anything special, so he betrayed Chi Yu without thinking, "Your Highness, Brother Aotian wants to know your name in the mortal world."
Xie Xiyi looked at Chi Yu, "Why are you asking this?"
Chi Yu smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'm curious, Senior Brother Xuan Ji, can you tell me?"
Xie Xiyi said: "No."
Chi Yu: "..."
Chi Yu asked: "Why? Is this some kind of secret?"
Xie Xiyi said calmly, "It's not a secret, but once you enter Zen, all the past events will naturally fade away. In that case, there's no need to mention your worldly name."
Xiaoqiu nodded heavily, "That makes sense, that makes sense, otherwise how could Your Highness be chosen as the future Buddha's son?"
Chi Yu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay—but Xiaoqiu, why are you called Xiaoqiu? Is this the Dharma name you chose? That's a little funny."
Xiaoqiu laughed and said, "No, this is my childhood name. My parents called me Xiaoqiu because I was chubby when I was born, so they gave me this nickname. If I can pass the Zhengxintai, I will change my name to Zhihai. This is the name that His Highness took the trouble to give me."
Chi Yu: "...Why do I feel like your Highness is scolding you by giving you this Dharma name?"
Ball blinked, "Scold me? Why?"
Chi Yu laughed secretly, "Zhi Hai, isn't it the Sea of Wisdom? Your Highness is scolding you for being unwise."
Xiaoqiu was shocked and looked at Xie Xiyi, "Your Highness, is this true?"
Xie Xiyi: "..."
He looked away suspiciously.
Little Ball: “…”
No doubt about it, it seems to be true.
