Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 149: Mu Xiaoyin\'s background

Mi Xiaojing was also helpless. He didn\'t dare to completely put away the Green Wood Formation, but only let it remain in a hidden state.

This also required the consumption of spirit stones, but Mi Xiaojing couldn\'t put it away. Once he put it away, it would take a little time to activate it again. And during this time, it would be enough for Chen Shouyi to suffocate him, and there was no chance of activating the large formation again.

Only in a hidden state, with a hand gesture or an incantation, he could launch an attack against the enemy, so as to respond to unexpected situations.

When Chen Shouyi escaped, Mi Xiaojing was trapped in the Gathering Spring Courtyard and couldn\'t go anywhere.

Once he went out, he would likely face Chen Shouyi\'s attacks. Mi Xiaojing believed that if Chen Shouyi made another move, he would definitely go all out and not give him any chance to escape.

These days were really difficult.

When the Green Wood Formation was in a hidden state, the entire front yard was revealed. Without the cover of the large formation, there were no illusions, and the entire yard remained the same as before. The fierce battle just now didn\'t affect a single blade of grass in the front yard. The magic of the Green Wood Formation made Mi Xiaojing amazed.

It was indeed a formation refined by a cultivator in the Elemental Infant stage. It was unexpectedly powerful. Mi Xiaojing understood that he hadn\'t fully exerted the power of the Green Wood Formation yet, but even so, he was able to defeat Chen Shouyi without any means. In the end, Chen Shouyi could only escape.

At this time, Zhang Ke ran out with a group of people. The faces of the children were full of excitement, but Zhang Ke and Mu Xiaoyin showed worried expressions.

Zhang Ke said, "Are you okay?"

Mi Xiaojing shook his head and said, "I\'m fine for now, but it will be difficult in the future..."

Mu Xiaoyin asked, "Who dares to bully us like this?"

Mi Xiaojing had long noticed that Mu Xiaoyin\'s relationship with Chen Shouyi was not ordinary. He didn\'t want to hide anything and said, "It\'s Chen Shouyi... He wants to capture me and force me to reveal the ancient alchemy method."

"What? Chen old man? How is that possible!"

Mi Xiaojing nodded and said, "He killed Hong Qing..."

Mu Xiaoyin was dumbfounded. This was a big deal. It must be known that Hong Qing was the sect\'s pill master. His death was definitely a great loss for the sect.

It took a lot of resources for the sect to cultivate a pill master, and it would take many years of growth to have a chance. For the sect, this loss was simply unbearable.

"How... how dare Chen old man!"

Zhang Ke said, "I also saw... He killed Hong Qing."

But Luo Bo was excited and said, "Brother Xiao Mi, you defeated him!"

Mi Xiaojing smiled bitterly and said, "I didn\'t defeat him, he escaped."

Luo Bo happily said, "So he was defeated, otherwise why would he run away? Brother Xiao Mi, you\'re amazing." He admired Mi Xiaojing unconditionally.

The other children were the same. They admired Mi Xiaojing a lot, and when they heard that Mi Xiaojing had defeated an elder, their faces showed expressions of astonishment.

Wei Fu laughed and said, "I knew Brother Xiao Mi was the most powerful..."

Mi Xiaojing waved his hand and said, "Alright, let\'s not talk about it..." The bitterness on his face was visible to everyone.

Luo Bo said, "Brother Xiao Mi, you defeated him, what are you worried about?"

Mi Xiaojing didn\'t know how to explain. He didn\'t defeat Chen Shouyi with his own strength, but with the power of the Green Wood Formation. Without the Green Wood Formation, he was no match for Chen Shouyi at all.

Insufficient strength, relying solely on formations, was really not enough. Mi Xiaojing understood this, Wang Weijun understood this, but the others didn\'t.

Mu Xiaoyin said, "I\'ll go talk to the old man and ask him not to bully us..."

Mi Xiaojing said, "Sister, don\'t go. He\'s crazy now. If you go, you will be caught by him and used to threaten me."

Mu Xiaoyin said, "How dare he!"

Mi Xiaojing was stunned. He didn\'t understand what kind of confidence Mu Xiaoyin had to speak to Chen Shouyi like this. It must be known that Chen Shouyi was a Foundation Establishment stage elder and a senior of the Grass-Benevolence Hall, while Mu Xiaoyin was just an ordinary person. Although she was now in the Ascension stage, she had no real strength.

But Wang Weijun seemed to have figured something out and said, "This little girl is not simple. She must have some powerful background."

Mi Xiaojing said in surprise, "What kind of background can suppress a Foundation Establishment stage elder?"

Wang Weijun said, "Mu Hengyuan!"

Mi Xiaojing was stunned again and exclaimed, "The Great Elder Mu Hengyuan?"

Wang Weijun said, "This can explain why she dares to call Chen Shouyi \'Chen old man\'."

"Then can she go and talk to him? Will it work?"

"No, not only will it not work, but she will fall into his hands and be used to threaten you. Chen Shouyi has torn his face. Even if he really kills Mu Xiaoyin, the sect will protect him. There are not many pill masters in the Grass-Benevolence Hall. If one dies, there will be one less. I think as the high-level members of the sect, they will consider more."

Mi Xiaojing suddenly understood. Killing an ordinary person like Mu Xiaoyin wouldn\'t cause any loss to the sect. Even if she had someone powerful backing her, in the end, they could only give up.

To kill a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator and a grand alchemist for the sake of an ordinary person, it was really not worth it for the sect. Killing Chen Shouyi would be a great loss for the sect, but the death of Mu Xiaoyin would have no impact on the sect. The high-level members of the sect could easily make a decision.

Only then did Mi Xiaojing say to Mu Xiaoyin, "Please don\'t go. Pretend that nothing happened. He probably won\'t actively come after you. Sister, you can help us by gathering information outside."

Wang Weijun reminded, "It\'s fine to let the girl gather information, but be careful to avoid Chen Shouyi. He\'s in a crazy state now and will definitely look for your weaknesses. It\'s best to keep her away from the Grass-Benevolence Hall."Mi Xiaojing said, "Senior Sister, you must avoid Grass-Benevolence Hall and avoid meeting Chen Shouyi."

Mu Xiaoyin replied, "Alright, alright, I will avoid him. I hate that old man, why does he have to bully people!" She still didn\'t understand that the situation between Mi Xiaojing and Chen Shouyi had escalated to a life-and-death struggle.

In fact, Mu Xiaoyin didn\'t have much contact with Chen Shouyi. Most of the time, Chen Shouyi focused on his cultivation and alchemy, rarely sparing time to pay attention to her.

However, Mu Xiaoyin was deceived by Chen Shouyi\'s kindness. Whenever Chen Shouyi saw her, he rarely showed a stern side, usually indulging her and not meddling in her affairs. As a result, Mu Xiaoyin never found Chen Shouyi to be frightening.

Mu Xiaoyin said, "I\'m going to find a friend..."

Mi Xiaojing said, "Return immediately after gathering information. It\'s best to establish a connection with your friend. If anything changes, use the paper owls to pass on the message." As he spoke, he handed Mu Xiaoyin a stack of paper owls. Although these items were not expensive, they were not commonly used by low-level cultivators. After all, they required some spirit stones, and no one would use paper owls to convey information unless it was important.

Without saying much, Mu Xiaoyin took the paper owls and left. These paper owls had been processed. Once they flew back, they wouldn\'t land in Mu Xiaoyin\'s hands, but in Mi Xiaojing\'s. Mu Xiaoyin understood this very well. She had no choice, after all, she couldn\'t cultivate.

Watching Mu Xiaoyin leave, Zhang Ke finally asked, "What should we do?" (To be continued.)
