Mi Xiaojing was on guard, but his attention was still diverted by Zhang Ke. Combined with Chen Shouyi's cunning and decisive actions, Mi Xiaojing was finally hit.
The withered vine touched Mi Xiaojing's ankle and swiftly entangled him. The speed was so fast that he couldn't react in time.
It was like a snake climbing up a branch, coiling around and binding him tightly in the blink of an eye.
Chen Shouyi suddenly burst into laughter. He was very relieved. As long as he controlled Mi Xiaojing, the others would not be a problem.
Hong Qing cursed, "You thief, bastard! Mi Xiaojing, you idiot!" But in his heart, he thought, "I'm screwed!" The last chance disappeared, causing Hong Qing to completely lose his composure.
Chen Shouyi, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. He was much more cunning than Hong Qing. Without certainty, he would never make a move. Just like when he entered Mi Xiaojing's courtyard, he had already set up a crude isolation restriction. Although it was simple, it effectively blocked the transmission of various information and the sound of battle. People outside would never notice any movement in the Gathering Spring Courtyard.
"Haha, haha! Kid, I've known your weakness for a long time. Haha, now I've caught you."
Mi Xiaojing pretended to be confused, "Senior, what are you doing?"
Chen Shouyi clapped lightly, "Good, good. At a time like this, you can still remain so calm and pretend in front of me. Haha, not bad, kid. I didn't expect you to climb up to my level. Do you know why there are so few Pill Masters in the Sword Heart Sect?"
Hong Qing, in despair, rolled his eyes. There used to be talented Pill Masters, but they were killed one by one by the two of them. This time, Mi Xiaojing emerged too quickly and caught the attention of the sect's Elder. For a while, both of them felt at a loss, until Hong Qing couldn't bear it any longer and made a move.
In the end, Chen Shouyi couldn't help but make a move as well. His goal was clear, to create the illusion of Hong Qing oppressing Mi Xiaojing and Mi Xiaojing resisting, leading to both of them dying together. It was a good reason, a reasonable explanation.
Most importantly, even if the Elder of the sect suspected something, two Pill Masters had already died. Did they need another one to die?
As long as Mi Xiaojing and Hong Qing died, Chen Shouyi could be certain that the Elder would never kill him. He was the last Pill Master of the sect.
Zhang Ke knew he had caused trouble, but fortunately, it was Zhang Ke. If it were someone else, it would have been really troublesome. For example, Luo Bo would have definitely rushed out and disturbed Mi Xiaojing.
Zhang Ke ran towards the backyard without hesitation. He was constantly worried about what would happen to Mi Xiaojing.
On the way, he encountered Mu Xiaoyin coming out. Zhang Ke immediately grabbed her and said, "Quickly, let's go!"
Mi Xiaojing was bound while still standing. He didn't fall to the ground. Wang Weijun sneered, "Now you see, this is the Cultivation World, this is what cultivators are like!"
Wang Weijun wasn't worried at all because he knew that Mi Xiaojing had inexplicably activated the Green Wood Formation earlier. The formation was already activated, but in a hidden state. To make it work, Mi Xiaojing only needed to use an incantation. So he didn't care at all. It was a good educational material.
Mi Xiaojing was also calm. He remembered that he had already set up the Green Wood Formation, so he felt at ease. Although the withered vine magical tool could bind his body and limbs, it couldn't bind his mouth. Incantations were spoken with the mouth, not activated with the hands. Even if he didn't move, the Green Wood Formation could still operate.
"Why? Why are you doing this?"
Although Mi Xiaojing knew the answer, he couldn't help but ask.
Hong Qing couldn't help but curse, "Idiot, fool, brainless idiot!"
Chen Shouyi nodded, "You're right, he is an idiot, fool, brainless idiot. In fact, you are the same, idiot, fool, brainless idiot! Hahaha!" He couldn't help but burst into triumphant laughter. He was extremely excited. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
When people become arrogant, they lose control. Chen Shouyi was no exception. He had a smile on his face and said, "Kid, where did you learn the ancient method of alchemy? If you tell me, I'll spare your life, how about that?"
Hong Qing shouted, "If you don't say it, maybe you can still survive. Once you say it, you're really dead!"
Chen Shouyi became furious, "I've tolerated you for a long time. Do you really want to die? I'll grant your wish!"
The magical sword flew out and instantly pierced through Hong Qing's head, killing him instantly. Chen Shouyi beckoned, and the flying sword immediately returned. He walked to Hong Qing's corpse, reached out his hand, and a shadow floated out of Hong Qing's body.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".
Mi Xiaojing was shocked to find that the shadow was exactly the same as Hong Qing. What kind of technique was this?
"This is the Soul Condensing Technique, the soul of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. If left alone, it will soon become a ghost. This is truly eradicating the roots, not even sparing the soul!"The soul was struggling fiercely, Chen Shouyi said coldly: "Still unwilling? Then forget it." His hands gently rubbed together, and countless sparks flew out instantly. Hong Qing's soul quickly dissipated under the sparks, and in a moment, nothing could be seen.
"How ruthless, vanished into thin air, leaving nothing behind."
Wang Weijun said gloomily.
Mi Xiaojing's whole body was covered in goosebumps, Chen Shouyi's ferocity was beyond his expectation.
Chen Shouyi said casually: "If you don't want this to happen, then answer my question."
Mi Xiaojing suddenly understood, this world is not merciful just because you are, if the opponent is ruthless, then you have to be even more ruthless. He laughed: "Hehe, I neither want to answer your question, nor do I want to end up like Hong Qing, what can you do to me?"
Chen Shouyi looked around cautiously, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Scaring me, I'm so scared, hahaha!" He found himself very humorous, it was rare to see someone so foolish, who was caught yet still so bold. Didn't he know that cultivators have countless ways to deal with enemies, ways that could make life worse than death?
Rubbing his hands vigorously, Chen Shouyi said: "I remember there are a few remnants of the Western Evolutionary Sect, they were your junior disciples, right? Hehe, I believe, you are strong enough, but they may not be!"
Mi Xiaojing couldn't help but shake his head, feeling a faint fear in his heart. If he hadn't returned home and activated the Qingmu Formation out of guilt, he would really be helpless now.
But since he had already activated the Qingmu Formation, things were completely different.
Incantation activated!
