Chapter 10 Find me and I will remove the curse for you. Please remove the curse for me...
Chi Yu livened up the atmosphere before getting down to business with Huandian. "Did you hear what your master said? He's already given you one chance. I know you're in Cao's camp but your heart is with Han, but you still have to pretend. Don't make your master angry. What if he gets angry and breaks your body?"
Huandian nodded. Although it was very spiritual, it could never give birth to a spirit. Moreover, due to its material, it could never be inhabited by another spirit. Therefore, it could not express its thoughts with words, nor did it have complex emotions. Its preferences were pure, and it had no fear or terror.
It was not afraid that Xie Xiyi would break it, nor could it understand complicated words. It did not quite understand what Chi Yu said, but it did not matter, it just nodded frantically.
Chi Yu told it a lot of truths, and saw it nodding frantically. He felt it was really a cute creature, so he couldn't help but kiss it. Huandian was stunned immediately, and the tip of the sword couldn't help but tremble wildly.
Chi Yu didn't notice. He smacked his lips and said, "You seem to have been marinated too. There's a fishy smell that's a bit choking."
Phantom Lightning: “…”
It wilted immediately.
Chi Yu said cheerfully, "It's okay. I'll make you some ginger water to get rid of the smell."
After saying that, he took out the pot from the Sumeru Ring, filled it with spiritual spring water, cut a few pieces of ginger grown in the spiritual field and threw it in, and finally threw the phantom lightning in.
Ling Hezhou: "...Can ginger be used like this?"
"Oh, right." Chi Yu took out another handful of green onions and garlic, chopped them up and threw them in. He said with satisfaction, "Forgot about the green onions and garlic."
Ling Hezhou: "..."
He really wanted to shake Chi Yu's shoulders and ask him how dare he do such a thing to the big devil's sword!
But he was too embarrassed to say it, because the sword itself was happy with it.

The next day, Xie Xiyi came quietly to retrieve Huandian. As soon as he picked it up, he smelled the pungent smell of ginger, green onion and garlic on it.
Before he could react, Chi Yu rushed to Xie Xiyi and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I've already educated Huandian! He won't make any mistakes again!"
Xie Xiyi said nothing, just stared at the sword.
Chi Yu asked, "What's wrong, Boss? Are you dissatisfied with something?"
Ling Hezhou was sweating profusely in his heart. Aren’t you asking this question even though you already know the answer?
He was worried about Chi Yu, fearing that Xie Xiyi would get angry and kill Chi Yu.
During this time, he had already thoroughly understood Xie Xiyi's brutality. He felt that anything he did was predictable. Yet, Chi Yu, despite having faced him face to face before, seemed completely unfazed. Ling Hezhou felt like he truly didn't understand Chi Yu at all. Furthermore, Chi Yu was only at the Qi Refining Stage! How could he dare?!
Xie Xiyi smiled slightly, with a faint laugh in his voice, seeming a little nonchalant, "You did unnecessary things."
Chi Yu laughed sheepishly, "Are you talking about giving Huandian a bath? I felt it really needed it, so I took the initiative to give it a bath. Boss, if you don't like it, I won't do it again in the future."
He apologized so quickly and sincerely that it was hard to say anything.
Xie Xiyi took out the skin of a Taowu and carefully wiped the phantom lightning to remove the smell. Then he said to Chi Yu, "If you do anything unnecessary again, I will take away your finger bone soul refining lamp."
When he said this, his tone was very gentle, as if it had no lethality, but Chi Yu knew he was serious.
Chi Yu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can finger bones be used as soul lamps? What is their function?"
Xie Xiyi's ferocious face tilted slightly, his scarlet pupils reflected faintly on Chi Yu's face, and he chuckled softly, "Aren't you afraid?"
Chi Yu said in a very natural tone: "I am afraid, but fear is useless, right? No matter how scared you are or how much you beg for mercy, you will not stop doing what you want to do, so there is no need to be afraid."
He paused and said confidently, "Didn't you notice? I'm looking for a topic to chat with you."
He was too frank, which made Xie Xiyi feel a little puzzled. He rarely had such emotions, so he paused subtly and continued to laugh slowly, "You are very interesting."
Chi Yu said politely, "Thank you for the compliment."
Xie Xiyi said, "Take out the soul lamp from the Xumi Ring."
Chi Yu knew what he was talking about, and took out the lamp he had left behind from the Xumi Ring and handed it to Xie Xiyi.
The black mist spread over and swept away the lamp.
Seeing Xie Xiyi about to leave, Chi Yu hurriedly asked, "You're leaving? What are you going to do?"
Xie Xiyi: "Are you questioning me?"
A cold laugh escaped his throat. "Strange, I should have found a sword slave, not a mother."
He looks very obedient, but beneath that obedient appearance lies a rebellious nature similar to his own.
Xie Xiyi saw clearly that he had no intention of indulging him. So he stopped, holding the phantom lightning, and gently slashed at Chi Yu. The phantom lightning hummed, still resisting, but it could not resist Xie Xiyi. The tip of the sword emitted an arc of sword light, slicing through Chi Yu's robe, revealing his slender upper body.
Fourteen-year-old Chi Yu, well-fed by his grandparents, has a thin frame, but his body is thick with flesh, and his cheeks are round, as if he still has baby fat. Although taller than his peers, he still has the body of a teenager.
The chain on Xie Xiyi's sleeve slipped out again, wrapped around Chi Yu's thin body, and planted a strange black curse mark on his chest. It appeared on his chest like a tattoo, and quickly disappeared under the skin.
This time, Chi Yu watched the entire process and finally understood the purpose of the chain formed by the runes. He belatedly asked, "Was it casting a curse on my mouth last time?"
Xie Xiyi laughed, his voice filled with bright and gentle joy. "This curse is called 'Questioning the Heart.' The heart is the organ of the monarch, and it contains the spirit. A person's memory is in the heart. If this curse is cast, all your memories will be taken away within seven days."
Chi Yu: "!!!"
Xie Xiyi: "Do you know what would happen if someone lost all their memories?"
He looked at Chi Yu's face. His usually calm features now barely showed a hint of panic. The corners of his lips curled up slightly behind the mask. "People without all their memories are like newborn babies, able to be painted and transformed into any appearance."
His figure began to blur under the cover of black fog. "Find me in seven days and I will break the curse for you. If you are too late... I just need a dumb puppet."
Xie Xiyi disappeared, but his last voice echoed in this small training room, with an overly obvious coldness and malice in the lingering sound.
Ling Hezhou screamed: "Look at you!! Let you tease him!"
Chi Yu said dryly, "Don't worry, he still gave me seven days. He's a very nice guy."
Ling Hezhou: “???”
Ling Hezhou said: "You are too optimistic!"
Chi Yu asked, "But does the heart store memories? Logically, the brain should store memories, right?"
"..." Ling Hezhou screamed in his heart, "You've taken the question too far!" But on the surface, he answered Chi Yu with an honest and helpless expression, "Yes, that's the difference between cultivators and mortals. A cultivator can live without a heart, but a mortal can't. However, if a cultivator loses his heart, he will be like a funnel, unable to retain his memories. But he can still practice. If he loses his head, he will truly die, because his soul is in his head, as are his consciousness, spiritual roots, and five senses. Once he loses his head, he will never be able to survive."
Chi Yu: "I understand."
Ling Hezhou saw that he was taking his time, just like the emperor who was not anxious but the eunuch was. "Why don't you leave yet? There are only seven days left!"
Chi Yu said: "It's okay, this is enough time."
Chi Yu was secretly delighted. He didn’t expect that Xie Xiyi had a map!
Originally, the system updated Xie Xiyi's coordinates once a month, but after his repeated beatings over time, Xie Xiyi's coordinates are now updated in real time!
While he was looking at the map, he also took a look at Xie Xiyi's favorability towards him. It was very good, still 0, very, very stable. Chi Yu had never seen this value fluctuate.
It can be seen that Xie Xiyi is extremely cold-blooded and ruthless, and is not disturbed by external things at all.
Chi Yu ignored Ling Hezhou's urging, ate and had a good sleep as planned, and then went to look for Xie Xiyi.

"I have the ninth-grade star sand from Guiyuan Pavilion. It is a unique material for refining weapons and is in short supply. I will give it all to you. Please let me go!" A Jindan cultivator dressed in green took off the storage bag from his waist and threw it in the direction of Xie Xiyi.
The black mist took the storage bag. Xie Xiyi seemed to soften his attitude and said cheerfully, "Since you are so sincere, I will let you go. However, you are not allowed to appear in front of me again."
The Jindan cultivator felt as if he had been pardoned, and quickly turned into a stream of light and flew away into the distance.
Xie Xiyi took a step forward and recited in a pleasant voice: "One, two, three... ten."
…
The green-robed monk fell in front of a stream, covered in blood. He knelt on the ground and was about to sit cross-legged to meditate and recover his spiritual energy when he saw a black shadow appear in front of him. Black mist was floating around it, which was oppressive.
The young man's pleasant voice rang out, "What a coincidence, we meet again, but I told you, you are not allowed to appear in front of me again."
The monk in green was shocked and said incoherently: "You, you don't keep your word!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his vision spinning. In the last second, he saw blood gushing out of his body like a waterfall, and then his consciousness fell into complete darkness.
The ninth-grade cinnabar sand that the blue-robed monk treasured was dumped on him like garbage. Xie Xiyi's voice sounded with a hint of doubt, "I seem to be in need of this kind of thing?"
The phantom lightning in his hand hummed. Xie Xiyi paused, raised his sword and moved forward, staring at the phantom lightning with his red ghost pupils. "You are really restless. Do you have any opinion about me?"
Phantom lightning buzzed, and Xie Xiyi chuckled softly, "You think it's dirty? How interesting. You've always lived like this, and now you think killing people is dirty?"
At this moment, Chi Yu's voice came from afar, "Boss!!! I found you!"
The phantom lightning trembled violently, and immediately slipped out of Xie Xiyi's hand, flying towards Chi Yu like lightning.
Xie Xiyi turned slightly to the side, watching Huandian pounce in front of Chi Yu as fast as a beast, and stopped just when the cold light from the tip of the sword was about to hurt Chi Yu. He drew a half circle in the air with a very beautiful posture, and gently rubbed Chi Yu's face with the rugged and hard hilt of the sword. Then he was hugged by Chi Yu, who pulled up a corner of his robe and wiped the blood off the sword for Huandian.
After doing all this, he walked over like a qualified sword slave, holding Huandian. His eyes were as bright as morning stars, and with a hint of complacency that he himself did not realize, he said to Xie Xiyi in a cheerful tone: "Boss, before the seventh day, please remove the curse for me."
The smile behind Xie Xiyi's mask slowly disappeared.
Something seems to be slowly getting out of control.
