Thanks It Works. I tried it in MIUI 9.2.5 Stable. Need not flash TWRP.Just boot to it and Flash it Directly and it works
But booting to TWRP asks for password! And does it modifies system partition so that safetynet check will fail?

Will OTA work?

Will there be future updates? For this FaceId..Zip?

Thank You, it works well!
Will there be future updates? For this FaceId..Zip?
cause this app merges the settings app with then new one and also the keyguard....
that means you would have to give new updates....

    Will OTA work?

    download this twrp and boot to it(NEED NOT FLASH) and go to Advanced>Tools>Disable DM-Verify
    I'm not allowed to give external links for now.
    go to google and type "twrp for Redmi 4x" and then select xiaomifirmware link and download TWRP_3.1.1-0_Redmi4x_7.zip

    afterwards again boot to twrp and install faceunlock.zip and done.

    You can most probably receive OTA Updates but you will lose any root.
