Following the road, Mi Xiaojing quickly walked to the edge of a forest and saw a person standing there. He recognized this person as Hong Qing from Grass-Benevolence Hall. Could it be that Hong Qing was looking for him?

Seeing Mi Xiaojing approaching, Hong Qing couldn't help but smile.

Mi Xiaojing immediately became alert. At this time, the sect was in chaos, and most of the cultivators had gone to the Sword Formation. There were not many cultivators left, especially those in the Foundation Establishment stage.

After taking a glance at him, Mi Xiaojing didn't want to provoke this person and turned to leave.

"It's me who's looking for you!"

Hong Qing said with a smile.

Mi Xiaojing frowned slightly. He had a bad feeling about this and turned around, saying, "Senior Brother, do you need something?"

Hong Qing beckoned and said, "Come over and talk." He was the senior brother, and although Mi Xiaojing was now valued by the elders, his basic rank was still below Hong Qing.

Mi Xiaojing clasped his hands and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother. If there's something... please speak!" He didn't move, not because he sensed any danger, but because he instinctively didn't want to get close to this person.

Hong Qing didn't expect Mi Xiaojing to just stand there, and he became impatient. He said sternly, "Mi Xiaojing, I asked you to come over. Why are you just standing there? Playing dead?"

Mi Xiaojing remained motionless and said calmly, "If you have something to say, I have other matters to attend to. If there's nothing, I'll leave..." He pretended to fly away.

Hong Qing immediately became anxious. He sneered and said, "Mi Xiaojing, just because you have the protection of the sect doesn't mean you can do whatever you want..."

Mi Xiaojing found this statement inexplicable and asked, "Are you crazy? You called me over without mentioning anything. What do you intend to do?"

"I called you over, can't you hear?"

Mi Xiaojing suddenly released his Thunderstrike Dagger and said coldly, "There's a restraining prohibition in front of you. Do you think I can't see it?" In fact, he really couldn't see it; it was Wang Weijun who reminded him.

Hong Qing's expression changed immediately. It was the first time he realized how troublesome Mi Xiaojing could be. "Nonsense! Where is there a restraining prohibition?"

Mi Xiaojing was about to fly away, but Hong Qing didn't want to let him go. He had long been prepared to kill Mi Xiaojing during the chaos in the sect because Mi Xiaojing had already threatened his position and development.

Even though Mi Xiaojing was now valued by the sect, if he suddenly disappeared during the chaos of a big battle, as long as he left no clues and kept his hands clean, Hong Qing believed that no one would be able to guess that he was the one who killed Mi Xiaojing.

Normally, even if Hong Qing had the intention to kill someone, he wouldn't dare to act. But now, with the sect in chaos and most of the experts gone to the Sword Formation, he had to seize the opportunity. There might not be another chance to kill Mi Xiaojing in the future.

Mi Xiaojing saw the ferocious expression on Hong Qing's face and immediately understood that this guy had ill intentions. However, he didn't expect that Hong Qing wanted to kill him. But after assuming a defensive posture, the other party's attitude changed and turned into an attacking posture.

There was a huge difference in strength between the two. One was at the Great Perfection stage of Foundation Establishment, while the other was at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

Although Mi Xiaojing had already reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment and had special cultivation techniques, he had no confidence in fighting against Hong Qing.

"Fight him! This bastard makes me angry just looking at him! Kill him!"

Wang Weijun jumped up and down, shouting. He had seen too many cultivators like Hong Qing in the cultivation world. Once someone blocked their path, they would kill and eliminate them. This simple and crude method was really popular in the cultivation world.

"His cultivation level is higher than mine..."

Mi Xiaojing distinguished in his heart, but before he could finish speaking, Hong Qing had already used a magical technique. In an instant, countless trees rose up around them, forming a Wood-Entangling Formation. This formation was not complicated and was activated by an Array Disk. It had a great effect on Qi Refining cultivators but was almost useless against Foundation Establishment cultivators.

However, the Wood-Entangling Formation had one function, which was to isolate sound. Any sound or movement of the battle couldn't be heard outside the formation. As long as the formation was in place, if you were inside, you couldn't call for help or leave unless you could break the formation.

Hong Qing used this Wood-Entangling Formation not to kill the enemy, but to conceal the act of killing.

Mi Xiaojing's face immediately turned red. He was truly angry. He already had some understanding of formations and naturally understood the purpose of this Wood-Entangling Formation.

"Do you want to kill me silently?"

"Haha, of course. Little brat, aren't you living a comfortable life? I'll let you become a ghost... no, I won't even let you become a ghost! I'll make your soul completely dissipate. Boy, you can die now!"

"Is that so? Just based on you?"

"Haha, little brat, you're quite arrogant! Haha!"

Mi Xiaojing trembled his wrist, and a box appeared in his hand. He sneered, "Come and kill me! You old bastard!" He rarely cursed, but he couldn't help but curse.

Hong Qing laughed coldly and said, "Good, you dare to curse me... Rest assured, you remnant of Western Expansion Sect. When I catch you, I'll dig out your tongue first, then your eyes... Haha, at that time, you will feel how sad it is to be born in this world!"

With a wave of his hand, Hong Qing's flying sword shot out.

Mi Xiaojing didn't move. The Thunderstrike Dagger protecting him swiftly rotated, blocking the attack. Continuous thunderous sounds echoed, instantly deflecting Hong Qing's flying sword.

But Hong Qing burst into laughter and said, "Kid, your dagger can only block me three times. After three times... your dagger will shatter. Haha, you stupid brat!"Mi Xiaojing paid him no mind, instead, he cast a magical technique. Following a series of techniques combined with a spell, the box slid open automatically. Seven green shadows flew out at such a speed that even Mi Xiaojing only saw seven greenish shadows, which disappeared in a flash.

Hong Qing's second sword strike arrived, directly blocked by the Thunderstrike Dagger. Mi Xiaojing didn't care whether the dagger was damaged or not, his goal was to block the attack at all costs, making it easier for him to set up the Qingmu Array.

When the seven green shadows flew out, Mi Xiaojing breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that fighting with his own strength against the opponent's sword was almost certain death.

Even if he didn't die, Mi Xiaojing felt he couldn't handle it. He didn't dare to fight hard for now, and with the abnormal Qingmu Array in his hand, he decided without hesitation to use it to strangle the enemy.

The second sword strike collided with the Thunderstrike Dagger, forcing Mi Xiaojing to step back a few steps. The impact made it hard for him to stand firm, but his goal had been achieved, the Qingmu Array was in place.

Hong Qing didn't recognize the Qingmu Array, but instinctively felt that Mi Xiaojing shouldn't be resisting him so hard. He sped up, using seventy percent of his cultivation level power. The entire sword began to shine with a dazzling light, and he shouted, "Take another strike from me!"

Mi Xiaojing laughed loudly, "Fool!"
