Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 450 The Cold and Pure Human Buddha Child VS The Adorable and Devoted Demon Cat Emperor [126]

Jiang Xiyu remained silent for a long time, suppressing the surging thoughts in her heart, and then suddenly spoke in a very soft tone: "I can persuade the Dharma Master, but there are some things I don't quite understand. I would appreciate it if Master Jinglian could enlighten me."

Jinglian didn't think much of it and simply said, "Go ahead."

Jiang Xiyu's face seemed to blur for a moment under the shade of the trees, but his voice became calmer and clearer, quietly echoing in this quiet place, like a questioning of someone who already knew the truth, or like the confusion of someone who doubted himself.

He asked, "After I left, why did the Master go to the Buddhist cave to cultivate? On the day I returned, why did Master Jinglian take me to the Buddhist cave? And this time, why didn't you let me go with the Master? Also, the Master's magical power has not recovered for a long time, is it... related to me?"

As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly.

He was caught up in the situation and only realized it after the fact. Even with all the arguments laid out before him, he still couldn't make sense of it. Since that was the case, he now wanted to ask this bystander whether he was simply deluded and deluding himself, or whether everything was truly as he thought...

Jinglian listened to Jiang Xiyu's question but remained silent.

He stared at Jiang Xiyu, unusually stunned, as if he hadn't expected him to suddenly ask about the reason.

Until those sounds completely dissipated in the air, Jinglian looked at Jiang Xiyu's self-deprecating expression, which seemed to indicate that he knew the truth, and a warning bell seemed to ring in her mind.

Before he could even speak, Jiang Xiyu casually blocked his escape route.

His tone grew more serious as he said, "Master Jinglian, monks must not lie. Please tell me, why?"

Jinglian shook his head and smiled helplessly. He remained silent for a long time, then suddenly pointed to Jiang Xiyu's heart and said earnestly, "There are many entanglements in the world, and it's inevitable that there will be times when things are unclear. In fact, as long as you use this to look and feel, you can find an answer..."

He paused for a moment, then withdrew his hand and said noncommittally, "Besides, you already have the answers to these questions in your heart."

"Whether you believe it or not is entirely up to you."

Jiang Xiyu's lips trembled slightly. For some reason, his heart sank suddenly, as if sinking into an unseen abyss. Then, in the long ups and downs, a strong feeling suddenly surged in his chest.

That is, all of this is true, including the fact that Shiga cannot regain his magical powers, which is indeed related to him.

Jiang Xiyu's face turned pale instantly. He murmured in a daze, as if talking to himself, "It really is because of me..."

In just six words, no one knows what kind of struggle he went through.

Therefore, when he spoke, every word was spoken with great difficulty, as if it were squeezed out from the depths of his heart.

It's true, Shiga really had feelings for him.

Because of him, he cannot recover.

Seeing his unusual reaction and furrowed brows, Jinglian tried to comfort him, saying, "Don't overthink it..."

Jiang Xiyu forced a smile: "So you figured it out all along..."

Jinglian's expression turned grave, and she fell silent.

How can I make it so that no one can tell?

Every year he would go to the human race to enlighten mortals. He had seen too many people, so he could naturally see Shiga's feelings for him. Especially during the time Jiang Xiyu returned, he saw the two of them inseparable and saw the Buddha's eyes gradually showing signs of becoming infatuated. Jinglian knew that if this continued, the Buddha would only have one ending.

Yet he willingly accepted it, unwilling to disturb the other party, who seemed completely unaware. Thus, every instance of dependence and intimacy from the other party felt far too cruel and unbearable for the Buddhist disciple.

Jinglian didn't know if the Buddhist disciple had ever, even for a moment, longed for this person to give him a response. If not, why go through all this trouble?

If so, this person now knows. What exactly happened that made the little cat demon suddenly find out and come to ask him?

Jinglian sensed something was wrong and immediately asked with concern, "Has something happened between you and the Buddhist disciple?"

Jiang Xiyu looked up at him, her eyes seeming to hold a few dappled reflections.

"What happened?" He gave a wry smile and asked in return, "What could possibly happen between me and a mage?"

Jinglian remained silent.

Jiang Xiyu asked again, "Master Jinglian, tell me, what should I do, and what should I do?"

“I only wanted to serve the Dharma Master. I never intended to hinder his practice. I only wanted to accompany him as much as possible and not let him be alone... But in the end, it was I who disturbed his resolve to follow the Dharma…”

“This is not your fault,” Jinglian said, her brows furrowed.

"How can it not be my fault?" Jiang Xiyu's voice went hoarse for a moment. "I just can't understand what I did to make the mage like this..."

The first time he went to the demon realm with Shiga, he broke Shiga's golden lotus formation to capture Yuejia. Jiang Xiyu knew he had committed a sin, but Shiga not only did not know about his deception, but also said that he would help him become a Buddha. At that moment, Jiang Xiyu regretted it.

He even gave up the idea of ​​conquering Shiga, and repeatedly reminded himself to respect and worship Shiga.

Thus, those emotions that had just begun to sprout in my heart but had no time to break through the soil gradually disappeared under the guilt of deception.

Later, they left the demon realm to subdue the pigeon demon. In the illusion created by greed, he saw his own greed with his own eyes. He originally thought that greed was Yuejia, but later, at a certain moment, greed actually became the appearance of Shijia. Therefore, the emotions scattered into the dust once again swept through his heart like falling flowers.

Jiang Xiyu thought it was just a fleeting moment; after all, people are human and it's inevitable that they would feel something.

He wouldn't waver in his decision, unaware that greed is like a light rain; though unseen, it has already soaked the most inconspicuous spot in his heart by the time he realizes it.

As a result, the constant companionship and gentle reminders became a subconscious reaction, as if he felt that he should treat Shiga this way and should care for and accompany him in this way.

Therefore, the emotions hidden beneath the care and companionship are completely concealed and deliberately ignored.

Jiang Xiyu felt that he had done a good job, and he felt that he could at least be considered to have touched the edge of the name of the Shiga believer.

But he forgot that Shiga, who was standing in front of him at that time, had actually lost his golden body. His divinity was fading. As a human being, he would naturally have emotions. His seven emotions and six desires were quietly growing by relying on the companionship and care that Jiang Xiyu regarded as the most insignificant thing.

Jiang Xiyu couldn't understand why Shijia would fall in love, but Jinglian did.

That day, the Buddhist disciple spoke to him personally before the Buddha.

He said that this was the first time he had experienced the human world, because Jiang Xiyu's appearance made him realize how warm the human world could be.

Others might not be moved by such companionship and care, but Buddhists are different.

Throughout his long and endless life, he cherished it as a treasure because he had never possessed it.
