Yu Xi was looking at the library curiously.

When Zhong Xian brought her in before, she only felt that the library was very large and spacious, not crowded at all. Now that Zhong Xian was not around, she tried to walk around a few steps and soon saw countless criss-crossing aisles.

He jumped twice with all his might, but he was too short. When he jumped, he was not even as high as the second bookshelf. No matter how hard he looked, he could not see the end of the aisle.

There are at least hundreds of bookshelves here, and each shelf is filled with books. It must be difficult to find the book you want here accurately, right?

Xuyun Sect also has a large library, but she has never been inside. However, judging from the size of the library alone, there should be more books from the demon clan.

Since Zhong Xian was not there, she did not dare to wander around, and quickly returned to her original place to find a new book to read from the ones Zhong Xian had previously chosen for her.

When demonic energy runs through the body, it is a little heavier than spiritual energy. However, Yu Xi has a special physique, so apart from some discomfort, there are no other bad reactions.

She meditated and practiced Qigong according to the instructions in the book, and was surprised to find that her body could continuously absorb the demonic energy without any control. If she tried consciously to absorb it, a large amount of demonic energy would rush into her body, and the speed of her inner elixir's operation would become faster and faster.

This cultivation speed is much faster than when she used spiritual energy to cultivate before!

She quickly devoted herself to cultivation, and as she absorbed more and more demonic energy, her perception became more and more sensitive.

The activities of spirit beasts outside the library, the sound of pages turning, voices, and a gathering of ghostly energy...

Yu Xi suddenly opened his eyes, and the fox fur on his ears and tail all stood up. The already fluffy tail now blew up into a huge ball.

The moment she sensed the ghostly aura, an indescribable feeling of chill instantly invaded her whole body, as if she was suddenly thrown into a deep cold pool. The feeling of suffocation surged in from all directions, and the chill turned into despair, making it a luxury for her to even struggle.

"elder brother……"

She could determine that the location of the ghost aura was where Zhong Xian was.

Has my brother always had such a scary and cold aura?

No wonder his body is always so cold and can’t be warmed up no matter how hard he tries.

Thinking of Zhong Xian's happy smile when he came, Yu Xi pursed his lips, lowered his head, picked up a few books, and couldn't wait to find Zhong Xian.

Zhong Xian was very good to her, so she also wanted to stay with Zhong Xian.

Following her perception, she moved forward and when she came to her senses, she had reached the end of the library.

Here is a spiral staircase going upward.

Each step of the stairs was very high, almost reaching her neck. She couldn't move her legs up and could only climb up with difficulty.

When she was almost climbing to the second floor, she finally heard human voices.

Found it!

She was happy, but when she heard Luo Chunxi's voice, she suddenly froze in place.

"Zhong Xian, do you want to die? How many years do you think you have left to live?"

What does this mean?

Yu Xi pricked up her ears and carefully climbed the highest step, leaving only a pair of eyes peeking in the direction of the sound, little aware that her pricked ears had already exposed her completely.

Luo Chunxi retracted his peripheral vision, rubbed his brows, looked coldly at Zhong Xian who was kneeling in front of him and said:

"The ghost energy has already invaded your heart and lungs. Within a year, your body will be covered with frost and you will be living a life worse than death. In ten years at most, you will be completely swallowed up by the ghost energy, losing your soul and mind, and becoming food for the evil ghosts."

"I know, Master."

Zhong Xian knelt upright, his face covered with spells once again without any trace of his usual frivolity. Even with his eyes closed, one could sense the determination and seriousness in his eyes:

“I am a worthless person, and no one would care if I died. But Xiao Xi’er is still young, and her bone age is only three years old, but she can read and cook. If she hadn’t suffered so much, how could she be so sensible?

"The immortal world cannot accommodate her, and the human world cannot protect her. Only the demon clan can be considered as her shelter.

"I beg you, Master, to take Xiao Xi'er to your side after I die, and let you raise her personally."

Zhong Xian knelt down, looking as if he would not get up unless Luo Chunxi agreed.

Luo Chunxi closed her eyes.

[Evil disciple, evil disciple, I am so annoyed, evil disciple! 】

Trying to calm down the rage in her heart, Luo Chunxi took a deep breath, opened her eyes and said coldly:

"It's your business if you don't want to live anymore. I don't have the habit of raising children myself. Whether Yu Xi lives or dies has nothing to do with me! How many of the elixirs I asked you to find did you find? When are you going to the Frost Secret Realm?"

Zhong Xian clenched his fists slightly and smiled bitterly, "My body... the effect of the medicine can no longer suppress the ghost energy. I even lost control once in front of Xiao Xi'er before. I'm afraid there is no need for me to go to the Frost Secret Realm anymore."

"I've said before that the Blazing Colorful Clothes in the Frost Secret Realm have a miraculous effect on ghost energy. It can help you suppress the ghost energy for at least another ten years."

"What about ten years later?"

Zhong Xian lowered his head. "Master, I have endured hundreds of years of torture. What is the need for these decades after decades? Isn't the final outcome already predetermined?"

There is no solution to the evil spirit, he will definitely die, why should he suffer ten more years of torture?

There's no point in living.

"What I'm looking for!"

Who would have thought that at this moment, a clear and childish shout suddenly came from the direction of the stairs.

Xiao Xier?

Zhong Xian quickly opened his eyes and looked back, only to see Yu Xi climbing up the stairs with difficulty. Her bright fox eyes were filled with water, with ripples forming in circles, and she didn't know when the tears covered her face.

She ran over with her short legs, and like a little fireball, she threw herself into Zhong Xian's arms without hesitation, hugged him tightly and said:

"That's what I'm looking for! I'm looking for Blazing Colorful Clothes!"

She originally thought that Zhong Xian died in his previous life because he was hunted down by the immortal cultivation community, and she was relieved after the Hezhou City incident was resolved.

But I never thought that there was something wrong with Zhong Xian's health.

In the previous life, Zhong Xian did not get the Blazing Colorful Clothes. She heard that an elder of the Yaotian Sect got it and his cultivation level greatly improved. There were also vague rumors that he could control ghost energy.

Maybe the Blazing Colorful Clothes can help Zhong Xian’s health!

Zhong Xian never expected Yu Xi to show up. He originally estimated that it would take at least several days for Yu Xi to successfully complete the entry of demonic energy into his body. Unexpectedly, he completed it in just a few hours.

Xiao Xi'er is amazing! Genius is not enough to describe her! She is worthy of being his sister!

Seeing Yu Xi's face was red from crying, he paused. Warmth came from his cold palms, and even his heart felt unusually soft.

Afraid of scaring Yu Xi, he slowly put away the spell on his face. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Yu Xi raise her head, tears still flowing out, but her eyes were staring at him without blinking:

"Brother, how can we know if we don't try? Let's go find it. Let's go together. Can I accompany you?"

She finally met someone who was very kind to her, and she couldn't remain indifferent.

There is clearly hope now, why can't we seize it?

She didn't want to see Zhong Xian die again.
