Xie Xiyi said impassively, "The deal is already settled. Does he think he can call it off just because he says so?"
Chi Yu studied Xie Xiyi's expression and could not help saying, "But the emperor said he doesn't want it anymore."
Xie Xiyi said rather coldly, "The choice isn't his."
Wow. So domineering, Chi Yu thought.
Chi Yu asked, "Senior Brother Xuanji, are you still going to get it for him even if he doesn't want it?"
Xie Xiyi said, "Yes."
Chi Yu said quietly, "But if the person involved doesn't want it, forcing a spiritual root on him isn't very nice."
Xie Xiyi said ruthlessly, "Why bother with him? All we need is the poison sac."
Chi Yu thought that Senior Brother Xuanji really was only good to his own people. He did not care about outsiders in the slightest.
Chi Yu asked, "Is that poison sac very important?"
Xie Xiyi said calmly, "Of course. Members of the Demon Race are born with accompanying treasures, but demon dragons with dragon blood usually have the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning as theirs. Only this poison dragon, Duyu, developed a poison sac far beyond his own strength. That poison sac will keep growing even after leaving its owner. It's a very good magic treasure."
He added, "Your state of mind is fragile. Killing demons and monsters yourself with a sword will always leave lingering fear. Fear is a poison, and over time, it will give rise to a heart demon. Using poison will spare you that trouble. But ordinary poisons struggle to kill thick-skinned demons and monsters. This poison dragon's poison sac is very suitable."
In the end, it was all for him.
Chi Yu was moved. He opened his mouth, unsure what to say for a moment.
