Chapter 171 The Secret of the Chaos Realm
As soon as Ye Li arrived in front of the Golden Pagoda, a dark figure pounced on her.
She instinctively wanted to knock it away.
Upon sensing that familiar presence, she immediately withdrew her hand, her brows relaxed, and she opened her arms as the enormous creature rammed her several steps away.
She was overjoyed, "Big Black!"
"Chirp chirp chirp!"
Big Black seemed very excited, pecking at her head with its sharp beak.
Ye Li rarely showed a genuine smile, "I know you're happy to see me, so stop fooling around."
But Big Black kept pecking at her head and flapping its wings incessantly; it was clear that it wasn't just excitement.
Ye Li looked down and, sure enough, the large black paw contained an empty storage bag.
It wasn't excited, it was angry...
Thinking about how she had given all of Dahei's snacks to Xie Sixing and the others while Dahei was asleep, she looked embarrassed. "I'll make sure you get them all back."
Big Black flapped its wings incessantly, clearly extremely dissatisfied.
Even so, Ye Li felt only joy when she looked at it.
Normally, Dahei only knows how to eat and sleep, and often gets into trouble.
They would either peck Wen Yao's medicinal herb field to pieces, or suddenly drop a bird dropping on Mo Hannian's head when he went out.
Or it would flap its wings while Yuan Ce and Bai Xiaosheng were eating, blowing sand and gravel into their bowls.
Everyone in the Lotus Sect said that Dahei's demonic nature was hard to eradicate and that she should get rid of Dahei.
'With your cultivation level, what kind of spirit beast couldn't you have? Why do you insist on forming a bond with this neither-demon-nor-spirit thing?'
'This kind of thing is a disgrace to the Lotus Sect.'
On the day she died, these self-proclaimed righteous people turned a blind eye to her death.
Only Big Black, knowing he was no match for her, still risked his life to block the masked man for her.
Even after her death, she dragged her severely injured body back to the Tianmen Sect to seek help.
Big Black was already badly injured at that time, and it had to endure great pain every time it flapped its wings.
Even so, it still refused to give up on her.
The beast they despised was the only one who did everything in his power to save her.
Thinking of this, Ye Li's eyes welled up with tears. She touched Da Hei's feathers and said softly, "Alright, you just woke up and you're still injured. You need to rest well."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was surprised to find that all of Big Black's injuries had healed.
Those injuries were not ordinary superficial wounds; they also contained burn marks left by Master Qingyu, which would not heal easily.
At this moment, not only have the injuries disappeared, but its cultivation level has also improved considerably.
"Your injuries are all healed? How did you do that?"
"It's healed, but its owner was half-dead!"
Huo Huo burst into tears.
Ye Li asked, puzzled, "What happened to Xie Sixing?"
"Didn't you see the red snow falling from the sky? Master..."
Huo Huo was interrupted by A Jin before she could finish speaking, "Huo Huo."
Ah Jin looked at Ye Li, his smile somewhat forced, "Let Master tell you himself."
Ye Li also had something to ask Xie Sixing, so she nodded slightly and turned to go inside.
Inside the Golden Pagoda.
Xie Sixing put the eye mask back on and leaned against the bed, still looking as spineless as ever.
"Young Taoist priest, you've arrived."
His voice was as irreverent as ever, and he waved to her with a smile on his lips.
Although he didn't show any unusual behavior, Ye Li could sense that the spiritual energy around him was fluctuating greatly.
It felt as if all the spiritual energy in his body was pouring outwards.
If it were someone else, they would have already exhausted their spiritual energy and become a cripple by now.
Just like Yuan Ce back then, because his spiritual power was reversed, he exhausted his spiritual power in less than half an incense stick's time.
What is he doing...?
Ye Li instinctively stepped forward, but then stopped in her tracks, as if remembering something. "What's wrong with you?"
Xie Sixing turned his head and smiled at her, "I don't have the strength. Come here and I'll talk to you."
Ye Li hesitated for a few seconds, but remembering that he had saved Da Hei, she still went over.
"Did you become like this because of Big Black?"
She knew perfectly well how serious Dahei's injuries were. Even if there were miraculous medicines outside, let alone in the forbidden land of Chaos Realm where there is no sunlight, he might not have recovered so quickly. It was definitely not just a matter of luck.
Because Ye Li was standing, Xie Sixing leaned back slightly before looking at her, and said in a nonchalant tone, "You guessed that?"
He counted on his fingers, "Including your life, plus that fat bird's life..."
He raised his eyes and gave a mischievous smile, "You owe me two lives, Taoist priest."
He's right.
If it weren't for Xie Sixing, she would have been completely destroyed the moment the masked man activated the Soul-Devouring Furnace.
Her life was saved by Xie Sixing.
Ye Li paused for a moment, "When you saved me, did you intend to use my body to revive yourself?"
Xie Sixing propped his head up, seemingly thinking, "That's about right. After all, I'm an evil spirit, and I've always taken the wrong path. I wouldn't do good deeds without expecting anything in return, right?"
His candid admission made Ye Li momentarily realize that what he said wasn't wrong.
only……
Ye Li's brows furrowed. "If you were a righteous person, and you saved me, I could give you my body. But you are an evil spirit. If you were to appear in the mortal world, you would surely..."
What will happen?
Xie Sixing smiled kindly, "Have you forgotten? Last time I went out, I did nothing but good deeds."
Ye Li was speechless. It really was true.
Xie Sixing not only saved her, but also the disciples of Tianmen Sect who were entangled.
Seeing that she was speechless, Xie Sixing's smile deepened. "I already told you, Daoist Master, that I have been converted and reformed. What's that saying again? 'A scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation.' What, can't I become a righteous person?"
Ye Li was not good with words to begin with, let alone with someone like Xie Sixing who was good with sweet talk.
She opened her mouth, but couldn't think of any rebuttal.
Furthermore, Xie Sixing was like an upside-down wine jug, constantly pouring out spiritual energy, which was hard to ignore.
Ye Li couldn't help but say, "Why don't you deal with it first? Even if you have abundant spiritual power, you can't hold on for long if you keep pouring it out like this."
Xie Sixing rested one hand behind his head, his tone light and airy, "It seems so, but in order to save your fat bird, I couldn't control my spiritual power anymore, so let's just leave it as it is."
Ye Li was confused. "What do you mean?"
Xie Sixing pointed out the window, "Do you see that?"
As soon as Ye Li entered the Chaos Realm, she saw the strange red snow and nodded, "Why is it snowing red snow in the Chaos Realm?"
Instead of answering, he asked an unrelated question, "Do you know what the Chaos Realm is?"
Ye Li was puzzled. "Of course I know. This is the forbidden area of the Heavenly Gate Sect, a place where evil spirits are imprisoned."
Xie Sixing's lips curved into a more intriguing smile. "Then why would the Heavenly Gate Sect have such a place? Have you ever thought about that?"
Ye Li was taken aback; she really hadn't thought of that.
Ordinary sects set up prisons to detain those who have committed heinous crimes or those who are demons that wreak havoc in the area.
Logically speaking, the Heavenly Gate Sect's sacred ground shouldn't have such an evil realm as the Chaos Realm, as if it were another space that had been separated.
Not only that, whenever we encounter a monster, instead of killing it directly, we just leave it here.
Looking back now, it really is unbelievable.
Ye Li frowned. "Where is this place?"
