Chapter 99: Aren’t you the one who wants eyes, Brother Xuanji?
"Brother Xuan Ji, why do my eyes feel more and more painful?" Chi Yu asked with some confusion.
Xie Xiyi looked at his face nonchalantly and said, "Because the residual sword energy is disturbing your eyeballs. You know, if you lose a limb, it will take until you reach the Nascent Soul stage to grow back."
Chi Yu was stunned for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Brother Xuanji, you mean I have to be blind until the Nascent Soul stage... Do you call that temporary blindness?"
"Yes." Xie Xiyi said.
Chi Yu released Xie Xiyi's waist and stepped back, "No... You are not Brother Xuanji."
Xie Xiyi laughed and asked, "Why am I not?"
Chi Yu said, "Senior Brother Xuan Ji would never say such a thing to me."
"Oh? Then what should your Senior Brother Xuanji say to you?"
Chi Yu's face darkened as he spoke slowly, "If you were Senior Brother Xuan Ji, you would probably be very worried about me."
He recalled what happened before. The curse at the root of his tongue had obviously been activated, and he had escaped from that danger - could it be that the replay function had been activated again?
The timeline five hundred years earlier...when was it?
Could it be Senior Brother Xuan Ji, whom he has not met yet?
Just as he was brainstorming, Xie Xiyi spoke up: "I fed you the pill right away. Wasn't that because I was worried about you?"
Chi Yu: "...Senior Brother Xuanji, do you still remember my name?"
"Of course, Chi Yu, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xie Xiyi raised the corners of his lips and smiled faintly.
Chi Yu reached out and touched his face—
Xie Xiyi reached out and held his fingers. "It's inappropriate to touch him like that, isn't it?"
Chi Yu said stubbornly: "Let me touch it."
Xie Xiyi didn't let go, still holding his hand, and put his hand on his face, "What? Don't you believe me?"
Chi Yu felt the soft, warm skin. His fingers groped around until they found Senior Brother Xuan Ji's eyes. His eyelashes were long and hard, pricking his fingers. His eyelids were thin, and his eyes were pure, upturned, and slightly cold. His nose was high and straight. Down below, he saw his thin lips, and even further down...
"If you want to see it, you can use your spiritual sense to know it, right?" Xie Xiyi said suddenly.
Chi Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I forgot!"
Help, why didn't he react?
It turns out that I usually rely too much on my five senses.
Chi Yu extended his spiritual sense and finally saw Xie Xiyi's face.
He was not wearing a mask, and his clothes were also a blue brocade robe embroidered with patterns of flowers, plants and auspicious clouds. He wore a jade crown to hold his hair together, and a jade belt around his waist showed off his slender waist. There was a warm jade pendant hanging on his waist. He was very handsome and outstanding in appearance. Compared with the uniform of Zen disciples, which was a bit thin and dull, his clothes looked more noble and gorgeous.
His face was still the same handsome one, but his dazzling golden eyes had turned light brown.
"Senior Brother Xuan Ji..." Chi Yu was a little skeptical. "Are you really Senior Brother Xuan Ji? How come you've changed so much?"
Chi Yu didn't think he was the villain Xie Xiyi, because Xie Xiyi's body was cold, while his was warm.
And the villain Xie Xiyi would not speak to him so gently.
Xie Xiyi said, "I have always been like this, how can I change?"
Chi Yu: "..."
His mind was a little confused. "Could it be that Senior Brother Xuanji went to the Infinite Secret Realm to cultivate and succeeded?"
I heard that after becoming a Buddhist, all seven emotions and six desires will disappear.
Could it be that Senior Brother Xuan Ji has become a disciple of Buddha?
Chi Yu didn't think he was stupid, but he really couldn't understand the current situation.
He took a few steps back, looking at him with his spiritual sense, somewhat wary and puzzled.
"Don't be afraid of me, I won't hurt you." Xie Xiyi laughed and said, "This is the Tiangang Secret Realm. I came here to get something. If you are afraid to go alone, follow me first. I can take you out."
Chi Yu asked, "What do you want?"
Xie Xiyi raised an eyebrow and said, "You're very curious—" He commented and quickly gave his answer, "I'm here to retrieve the Buddha's most precious treasure. It's a pearl. If you see it, give it to me. I can exchange it with you for something else."
Chi Yu asked, "Brother Xuan Ji, don't you have one?"
"You know a lot." Xie Xiyi laughed, "I did, but I naturally gave it back after I left Buddhism."
Chi Yu was stunned, his consciousness fixed on Xie Xiyi's face, "You..." He swallowed his words back before he could finish them.
"What do you want to say?" Xie Xiyi's eyes, which had turned light brown but were still deep, stared at him.
"..." Chi Yu was silent for a while, then took out his own bead, "Senior Brother Xuan Ji, this one is for you."
Xie Xiyi's face, which had always been filled with a faint smile, paused for a moment, revealing a rare look of surprise. "You...which Buddhist sect is this authentic object from?"
"It's the right path to Buddhism." Chi Yu replied.
Xie Xiyi's smile faded. "Are you a future disciple of Buddha who is a true disciple of Buddhism?"
Chi Yu wanted to say no, but it was a bit troublesome to explain, so he simply said, "Yes."
Xie Xiyi took the object and reached out to touch Chi Yu's face.
Chi Yu subconsciously reached out to hold Xie Xiyi's hand, and gently tilted her cheek towards the palm of his hand.
Xie Xiyi's voice softened a bit, "It seems like you are used to being touched by your Senior Brother Xuanji."
This sentence undoubtedly distinguished him from Senior Brother Xuan Ji.
Chi Yu reacted, but he didn't want to withdraw his hand, nor did he want to move his hand. He just froze there.
Xie Xiyi laughed, a smile that was ambiguous and definitely not kind. He covered Chi Yu's eyes with his palms, absorbed the sword energy in his eyes, and threw it to the ground, splitting a small stone.
"How pitiful! His eyeballs have been smashed." Xie Xiyi spoke with a regretful tone, but there was no look of heartache on his face.
Chi Yu once again realized that this was definitely not his senior brother Xuan Ji—he was most likely Xie Xiyi from the original novel.
But, how did Xie Xiyi in the original novel know his name?
"What do you want?" Xie Xiyi accepted the genuine Buddhist beads and asked Chi Yu.
Chi Yu originally wanted to give it to him for free. After all, Senior Brother Xuan Ji had given him quite a few things. Although the original things were very important to him and it was a pity, as long as Senior Brother Xuan Ji wanted it, there was nothing he couldn't give.
The problem is... the person in front of him is not his senior brother Xuan Ji.
If it was Xie Xiyi in the original novel, then he would also be a bad person at heart.
Thinking of this, Chi Yu felt that if he didn't order anything, he would be at a great loss.
He was thinking seriously about what he could get from Xie Xiyi. Xie Xiyi suddenly said, "Do you want eyes? I can give you a pair of eyes."
Chi Yu was stunned, "How do you give it?"
Xie Xiyi said slowly: "My eyes."
He held out his palm, on which were two golden beads shining brightly. "Good stuff." He raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "It's unused. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
Chi Yu: "..."
Xie Xiyi's smiling face was reflected in his consciousness, and he felt a chill all over his body. "Brother Xuanji, how could you use your body in exchange? Is this something that can be exchanged?"
He got angry. He knew that the person in front of him was not his senior brother Xuan Ji, but they were actually the same person.
"As long as it's valuable, why can't we exchange it?" Xie Xiyi tilted his head slightly, looking at his angry face with a bit of amusement. "It seems that you have a very good relationship with your Senior Brother Xuan Ji. To what extent... I'm a little curious."
Chi Yu suppressed his anger and asked, "Besides your eyes, what else do you have?"
"Oh... there are a lot." Xie Xiyi had a good impression of him and took out a few things from the Xumi Ring. "You can take whatever you want. After all, it's of no use to me."
Chi Yu's spiritual sense saw Xie Xiyi take out a whole jade-white spine sword, and the bone sword made a slight humming sound.
A string of jade-white finger bone beads and a bottle of crystal clear liquid.
Noticing that Chi Yu's consciousness had lingered on the bone sword for a long time, Xie Xiyi explained, "This is a good item. It's made of Buddha bone and hasn't been refined yet. After refining, it will have some spiritual consciousness. The downside is that it won't give rise to a weapon spirit, but it's a natural nemesis against evil spirits, demons, and evil cultivators. It's a very good item."
Without waiting for Chi Yu to answer, Xie Xiyi continued to introduce: "This is also made from Buddha bones. Hmm... Compared to the bone sword, it is more convenient to wear. Practicing it can increase the chance of enlightenment. It is also a very good thing."
"This bottle of liquid is my heart's blood. It can improve my bones and aptitude. The effect will be very good."
As he said this, the corners of his lips curled up, and his light brown eyes stared at Chi Yu: "So, which one do you want? Or do you want everything?"
Chi Yu's chest heaved violently, and he shouted, "I don't want anything!"
"No, you have to pick at least one thing." Xie Xiyi said, "How can I take your things for free? I'm not your Senior Brother Xuanji, so let's keep things separate."
Chi Yu blushed and asked him, "Did you take all these out of your body?"
Xie Xiyi said, "Yes, I left some in my body. After all, I still have the devil to suppress, and I can't do without the Buddha bones. Can you guess where I left them?"
After saying this, he looked at Chi Yu and asked with interest.
Chi Yu covered his ears: "Ahhhhhh I don't want to know! Stop it!"
"It's no use covering your ears. Isn't your consciousness outside?" Xie Xiyi laughed uncontrollably. "Let me tell you, I left my ribs behind."
Chi Yu: "..."
"You are not surprised. It seems that you know your senior brother Xuan Ji very well." Xie Xiyi restrained his smile and said in a light tone.
Chi Yu turned his back and didn't want to talk to him.
Xie Xiyi collected these things, and suddenly reached out and pinched Chi Yu's face. His powerful spiritual sense controlled his limbs and forced the two golden beads into his eye sockets. "Since you don't choose, I will choose for you -
What a wonderful thing this is! The power to break delusion lies within these pupils. Even without the innate realm, one can still unleash half of its power."
"You, you!!" Chi Yu's eyes regained their sight, and the world became very different in his eyes. He seemed to be able to see many lines and many flowing rules at a glance.
As for Xie Xiyi in front of him, he could see countless lines extending from his body, many of which led to the horizon.
"I already said I don't want it!" Chi Yu looked at him angrily, "Can you understand what I'm saying? Give it to me!"
Xie Xiyi realized that he really didn't want it, and could also sense the pity and sadness flowing through his heart. He couldn't help but say, "The world is bustling with people, all for profit; the world is bustling with people, all for profit. You actually do the opposite. How can you cultivate immortality like this?"
"Stop talking nonsense and take it out! Hurry up! Otherwise, return the real thing to me!" Chi Yu used his spiritual sense to bite Xie Xiyi's spiritual sense.
Xie Xiyi, who felt the severe pain in his consciousness, said, "I am not your Senior Brother Xuanji, so I will not indulge you."
He said this, but did not fight back. He looked at Chi Yu with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
The secret realm is the gap between time and space, and there is indeed a one in ten thousand probability of causing time to flow backwards and become chaotic.
When Chi Yu called him by his Zen Buddhist name and looked very dependent on him, Xie Xiyi knew that he had a deep relationship with him.
However, their relationship seems to be too good.
Xie Xiyi retracted his thoughts, loosened his limbs, and retracted his consciousness. "Although you gave me the real thing, this thing is not too much. I want to find the Buddhist beads again. If you want to follow me, then follow me. If you don't want to follow me, then please do as you please."
After saying that, Xie Xiyi got up and walked away.
Chi Yu shouted, "Don't leave! Take it out for me!"
Xie Xiyi said without turning his head: "You can take it out yourself. A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, don't you know this?"
Chi Yu: "..."
Xie Xiyi heard him remain silent, stopped, and tilted his head slightly to look at him: "Are you afraid?"
Chi Yu: "..."
Digging out your own eyes? How could you not be afraid?!
Xie Xiyi looked at him in disbelief. With such courage, how could he become the leader of the Demon-Destroying Army?
It seems that his senior brother Xuan Ji spoiled him.
