The eldest grandson, Zijun, realized that he had said something wrong, but he was powerless to stop himself. He was afraid that he would hum again if he opened his mouth, so he wrote on the table with his finger: I am sick.
Yi Xichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He really didn't expect that his eldest grandson, Zijun, would have a seizure at this time. Hearing that the worm had been strangled to death, he thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Maybe what you said will be more irritating to him. Whether he is happy or regretful, his mood must be disturbed, and he won't be able to exert his full strength tomorrow."
The eldest grandson, Jun, could only shrug.
Just half an hour ago, Yi Xichen came in with a listening bug in his hand, made a gesture to silence him, and wrote a line of words for him to see: This is Xiao Kui's. Let's scare him.
——Yi Xichen was a master at these unorthodox little tricks. If Xiao Kui wanted to play tricks on him, he would have run into a master! So Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson played along and said something specifically to Xiao Kui, which really irritated Xiao Kui.
Yi Xichen stretched his back, thinking about tomorrow's competition, and laughed: "I'm really looking forward to tomorrow. Master said that he has repaired the black fire stone. After I finish the sword competition tomorrow, he asked me to go to him. He used the black fire stone to make a magic weapon for me."
"What magical instrument?"
"I don't know. That's why I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I can't wait!"
The two of them thought that tomorrow's competition would be very interesting, so they went to rest peacefully.
The next morning, the disciples gathered at the sword-practicing ground. When Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Zijun arrived, they saw Xiao Kui in the crowd. Xiao Kui's face was yellow and red, and there were two dark spots under his eyes, which showed that he did not get enough rest last night.
However, Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Zijun knew that Xiao Kui was upset, but they didn't know how upset Xiao Kui was last night.
At this moment, although a whole night had passed, Xiao Kui's emotions were still surging.
It turns out that the eldest grandson Jun had entered the forbidden area in the back mountain for him! It turns out that he is so important in the eldest grandson Jun's mind! Is he so important that he is willing to risk his life for him? Even after so many years, he is still more important in the eldest grandson Jun's mind than Yi Xichen who accompanies him day and night? !
Xiao Kui has always used others to his advantage, so how could others treat him sincerely? Therefore, he has lived for nearly twenty years without a reliable friend, let alone anyone who would sacrifice themselves for him. Therefore, after learning what his eldest grandson Jun had done for him, his feelings were simply indescribable, and he re-examined his mentality.
——Is the eldest grandson Jun stupid?
——Are you really that good?
——Is it true that I have been constantly looking for trouble with my eldest grandson Jun just to attract his attention? It seems... it really has that meaning...
Xiao Kui was wandering around the sword-practicing field like a madman. When he looked up, he happened to meet the gaze of his eldest grandson Zijun, and immediately turned his head away in panic.
——He is looking at me! It turns out that he has always been paying attention to me!
On the other hand, the eldest grandson Jun didn't notice Xiao Kui's strange expression at all. His attention was only on Xiao Kui's sword. Sword cultivators emphasize the unity of man and sword, so when a sword cultivator has any problems, his sword will show abnormalities. At this moment, Xiao Kui's sword is empty and floating, not like a sword, but more like a piece of tofu.
The order of the competition has been announced, and Xiao Kui and Yi Xichen are the opponents in the first round of competition today.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, pinched the back of Yi Xichen's neck. Yi Xichen turned around and smiled at him, then walked to the edge of the practice field, ready to go on stage.
Xiao Kui saw their intimate actions and gritted his teeth secretly.
When the bell rang, Yi Xichen rubbed his hands and jumped into the sword-practicing area. Xiao Kui also walked up with heavy steps.
Soon, the disciples who were watching noticed something was wrong with the two men.
"What's wrong with Xiao Kui? Why is his sword shaking so violently?"
"No way? Is he afraid of Yi Xichen?"
"Junior Brother Yi seems to be very confident. Is he so confident that he can defeat Senior Brother Xiao?"
As everyone said, on the sword training ground, Xiao Kui, who had a higher level of cultivation, was extremely nervous, while Yi Xichen was very confident and looked like he was sure of winning - the more complacent he was, the more nervous Xiao Kui became.
After the competition started, neither Xiao Kui nor Yi Xichen took the initiative to attack, and the two were in a stalemate.
"What on earth is Xiao Kui doing?" Jin Cheng, who is also a disciple of the Sword Refining Pavilion, shook his head repeatedly, "Why hasn't he taken action yet?"
After watching Yi Xichen's first two matches, Jin Cheng thought that the best way to deal with Yi Xichen was to be fast and ruthless. Yi Xichen was too flexible, and he couldn't give him time to plan. The consistent style of their disciples of the Sword Refining Pavilion was to show off their sharpness. As long as Xiao Kui used his most familiar sword skills, it would not be difficult to defeat Yi Xichen.
This was Xiao Kui's original plan, but after eavesdropping on the conversation between Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Zijun last night, he became wary and did not dare to take action. Yi Xichen's plan was to use up his spiritual power first, so he would not be so stupid as to be fooled!
Yi Xichen finally took action. He threw a fire spell at Xiao Kui's feet, and Xiao Kui dodged to the side.
Xiao Kui thought: It's started! Yi Xichen has started to set up the formation! Connecting the seven fire techniques into a seven-star formation is the key to the formation of the Qiankun Primal Chaos Formation. As long as the eye of the formation is laid and the spirit stone is used to activate the formation, the formation will be complete!
Xiao Kui became more and more alert, watching Yi Xichen's every move carefully. In fact, he had planned to make a careful plan last night on how to defeat Yi Xichen, but because his mind was full of his eldest grandson Zijun, he couldn't calm down and was not completely sure in the end. Fortunately, he already knew what Yi Xichen was going to do in advance, and he also knew how to break the formation. Didn't Yi Xichen want to suppress him first? Then he would suppress Yi Xichen first and break your formation-breaking method first!
Yi Xichen kept attacking Xiao Kui, but Xiao Kui, contrary to his usual behavior, did not attack but defended. As the two of them changed their positions on the sword training ground, Yi Xichen kept releasing fire spells, which were filled with phantom powder. In the flickering flames, several phantoms of Yi Xichen appeared.
Xiao Kui sneered disdainfully. This wasn't even an attacking spell, it was just a low-level trick. Yi Xichen looked down on him too much. If he couldn't see through such a trivial trick, then he didn't need to stay in Tianjianmen any longer!
As the two of them exchanged blows, Yi Xichen had already laid out a prototype of the formation. Xiao Kui had been observing, and sure enough, Yi Xichen's intention was just as he said yesterday. Ha! Xiao Kui began to look forward to Yi Xichen's surprised face when he saw him breaking the formation.
Yi Xichen raised his sword, and a lightning sword slashed towards Xiao Kui. When Xiao Kui saw Yi Xichen using his sword energy, he began to get nervous, worried that Yi Xichen's sword energy would be too strong for him to resist, so he concentrated all his energy to block the attack.
There was another uproar from the audience. Even Wang Qingqiao, who had been defeated by Yi Xichen before, couldn't help but say, "Yi Xichen didn't even use one tenth of the strength he had when he fought me. What on earth is Senior Brother Xiao doing? Is he so afraid of the Lightning Sword?"
Xiao Kui was surprised when he blocked the attack, because this attack was much weaker than he had imagined, and it was just a tickle.
At the same time, Yi Xichen threw a paper eagle to Xiao Kui!
Xiao Kui reacted quickly. With his cultivation, he was already able to see and hear everything. At this moment, he was shocked: So this is what Yi Xichen wanted! Don't think that this can stump him!
Xiao Kuimeng swung his sword towards the paper iris, smashing it to pieces. He thought he had figured out Yi Xichen's trick, but before he could feel proud, he saw the paper iris explode with his sword energy and a ball of white powder burst out, trapping him instantly!
Xiao Kui was shocked. It was too late for him to burn off the powder with fire - he had fallen into a trap!
After inhaling Yi Xichen's special ecstasy powder, Xiao Kui was completely trapped in the formation. Every phantom created by the fire just now became a real person in his eyes. He couldn't tell which one was Yi Xichen. He was anxious and drew his sword to chop randomly: "Yi Xichen! You bastard!"
However, in the eyes of the onlookers at this moment, Xiao Kui was just hacking at the fire balls like a madman, which was really funny.
Yi Xichen stood in the corner of the sword-practicing field as if he was not involved, admiring Xiao Kui's ugly appearance with a smile.
After a moment, Xiao Kui calmed down. He was trapped by Yi Xichen's formation. Although Yi Xichen's method of setting up the formation seemed a little different from what he said last night, he already knew how to break the formation last night! Ha, Yi Xichen must have never thought that he gave him a listening bug last night and heard many things that he absolutely didn't want him to hear!
Xiao Kui smiled coldly and strode towards the east with determination. People who entered the Qiankun Chaos Formation would be shrouded in illusions, so he could not see where the edge of the sword training ground was. He only knew that he could break the formation by finding the center of the formation. After walking a few steps, he saw a cliff suddenly appeared under his feet in front of him. If he walked forward, he would miss. However, he already had a firm belief in his heart, thinking that this must be a bewitching formation set up by Yi Xichen. After passing this cliff, the real center of the formation should be in front of him!
Xiao Kui took a step forward without hesitation!
Bang!
Xiao Kui suddenly felt empty under his feet. He thought to himself that something was wrong and immediately took a deep breath and tried to jump back. However, he was kicked on the back with great force. He was caught off guard and fell to the ground in a dog-chewing mud posture!
Xiao Kui fell out of the sword-practicing field!
Almost everyone was stunned by this competition. In the eyes of everyone except Xiao Kui, what they saw was that Xiao Kui did not attack from beginning to end, and then he was sprinkled with a handful of love powder by Yi Xichen, and then he jumped off the field by himself! And what did Yi Xichen do from beginning to end? He set a few fires, used a sleight of hand, and finally stood behind Xiao Kui and kicked him. Cultivation? Sword Qi? Where was it used?
As for the Qiankun Primal Chaos Formation that Xiao Kui saw? No! Yi Xichen was clearly using a trick that even a seven-year-old Taoist child would use. Anyone with a little cultivation could see through it by just wiping their eyes with spiritual energy. It was Xiao Kui himself who had a demon in his heart. He didn't believe what he saw, didn't believe what he heard, but only believed what he thought, and that's why he went astray!
Xiao Kui sat on the ground for a while, his face was full of confusion, and he had no idea what was going on. Finally, Wang Qingqiao couldn't stand it anymore and wiped his finger in front of Xiao Kui's eyes, and Xiao Kui finally got rid of the confusion. He looked around and found that he had actually lost. He was angry and unbelievable: "How... how could this happen!"
Qiu Jian's voice came from above, so cold that ice chips fell off: "Yi Xichen, wins." He was too embarrassed to announce the result of this competition. He even began to regret how he could have made such a mistake in accepting Xiao Kui, such a fool. He had simply brought shame to the entire Refining Sword Pavilion! !
Yi Xichen smiled widely and looked up at Qiu Jian. To his surprise, in addition to Qiu Jian, the leader of the sect, Yuying Zhenren, also showed up to watch the battle. This was the first time in a few days.
At this moment, Jade Ying Zhenren was looking at him with a complicated expression. It was neither admiration nor disgust. Yi Xichen couldn't tell what it was. But he knew in his heart that his behavior was definitely not what Jade Ying Zhenren liked.
Yi Xichen shrugged. He didn't understand what had possessed Master Yuying to want to accept him as a disciple. Since the competition was over, he jumped down from the stage and walked to Xiao Kui's side.
"Brother Xiao." Yi Xichen said with a smile, "What happened to you today? I thought you would try your best to break my formation, but why did you jump out of the field before I did anything?"
Xiao Kui's face turned red and black, and he stared at Yi Xichen in doubt. When he thought back to what happened before, he realized something was wrong. What Yi Xichen used didn't seem to be a formation at all!
However, the competition was not always as expected. It must be because he was too strong that Yi Xichen changed his strategy temporarily. Thinking of this, Xiao Kui's face was gloomy, but his words were merciless. He sneered: "You are shameless. What if you won the competition? I think you are very upset!"
Yi Xichen raised his eyebrows.
Xiao Kui added: "You only know how to use vile techniques. You've been fighting for so many years, but still no one respects you!" As he spoke, he glanced at his eldest grandson Zijun.
Yi Xichen suddenly realized, still with a brilliant smile on his face, and whispered in his ear: "I can't use the Qiankun Chaos Formation. I'm just trying to scare you."
Xiao Kui was shocked and took two steps back: "You! You last night! You!"
Xiao Kui's face turned blue and purple, and suddenly he realized something. He had been completely tricked! Everything that happened yesterday was a trap set by Yi Xichen, and he had just jumped into the trap so obediently!! He was simply a complete fool!!!
Yi Xichen has always been a person who knows when to stop, but he does not follow this principle when it comes to Xiao Kui. When Xiao Kui takes a step back, he takes a step forward, looking at Xiao Kui sharply: "Brother Xiao, don't be too happy, this is what you deserve. There will be many more opportunities like this in the future."
Xiao Kui was so angry that his mind was clouded, and his hands were clenched into fists. Suddenly, he shouted loudly and slapped Yi Xichen in the chest!
Yi Xichen had not expected that Xiao Kui, who had always only dared to bark, would actually take action, so he quickly retreated, but his reaction was a little late. He saw a black light on Xiao Kui's palm from the corner of his eye, but he didn't know what kind of magic it was, and he thought it was not good!
In an instant, a fierce red fire appeared in the sky and struck towards Xiao Kui's crown!
