"I … I've learned my lesson!"
After saying that, Bai Hong acted out of character, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a faint smile.
This kind of calm and relaxed performance was a world of difference from the solemnity he showed before.
Then, Bai Hong slowly withdrew his long sword under Chen Xi's gaze, and then sat cross-legged in the air calmly.
Looking at that posture, it seemed that he didn't want to fight anymore.
Seeing this, the smile on Chen Xi's face couldn't help but shrink a little.
After seriously sizing up Bai Hong, Chen Xi could only praise from the bottom of his heart, "You're indeed very smart, at least much smarter than your three companions …"
"Sir, you flatter me."
Bai Hong smiled slightly, looking like he had a card up his sleeve. It seemed that he had completely seen through Chen Xi's' little trick '.
In fact, from the time when Shuixiang froze itself to the time when Bai Hong and Qing Luan arrived, Chen Xi was not idle at all.
Using the ice that froze Shuixiang as the formation door, and using the Gate of Heaven that constantly devoured the surrounding spirit energy as the formation core, Chen Xi cleverly used the materials on the spot, so he quickly set up a large-scale formation that seized the fortune of heaven and earth.
Mind Confusion Array.
Due to the limited conditions, this formation was mainly focused on 'trapping' and 'disturbing'. It did not have any offensive ability, and it could only be effective on enemies whose cultivation level was lower than the one who set up the formation.
Looking at the current situation, this formation did indeed allow Chen Xi to achieve his goal.
But it was a pity …
However, Bai Hong was much more intelligent than he had imagined.
Just by the word 'friend' that Chen Xi casually mentioned, Bai Hong was actually very sensitive to the fact that he might have fallen into Chen Xi's trap.
If he didn't break the formation, then Bai Hong would not be able to hurt Chen Xi at all even if he exhausted all his strength.
Because …
Everything he saw now was an illusion.
The reason why Chen Xi had been using words to pressure Bai Hong was purely because he wanted to use them to break down Bai Hong's psychological barrier, so that Bai Hong would fall deeper and deeper, treating the illusion as real and wasting her True Essence in the array formation for nothing.
Once their Zhen Yuan was exhausted, Chen Xi would be able to effortlessly take down the three of them in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately …
Bai Hong was not a reckless person like Qing Luan.
The feeling of being trapped in an illusion array was actually not much different from a dream. No matter how bizarre the dream was, the dreamer would not easily realize that they were just dreaming.
Just like how Bai Hong didn't think about why Qing Luan disappeared from her side just now.
Therefore, only when the dreamer realized that they were dreaming would they be able to wake up from the dream.
Thinking of this, Bai Hong emptied her mind and entered a meditative state.
As expected.
When he opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him had completely changed.
The ice block that froze Shuixiang was floating on the surface of the sea, and Qing Luan seemed to treat the ice block as an enemy, continuously launching wave after wave of fierce attacks at the ice block.
Looking at the small cracks that kept appearing on the ice block under the attack of Qing Luan, Bai Hong frowned.
If he didn't guess wrongly, his Waterstrike earlier should have hit the ice as well?
The man in front of him actually wanted to use the two of them to break the ice barrier of Shuixiang …
Killing three birds with one stone?
How vicious and meticulous was this?!
The expression on Bai Hong's face was a little uncertain.
Chen Xi's despicable behavior really hurt his nerves.
But the strange thing was …
Bai Hong did not immediately flare up.
After taking a deep breath, Bai Hong held the long sword in his hand tightly and said word by word to the real Chen Xi in front of him, "Since mister's strength is far superior to us, why don't you dare to have a fair fight with us?"
Hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh a few times.
Although his method was indeed a bit disgraceful, it saved him a lot of trouble!
Chen Xi's head was not made of iron. Since he could easily outsmart them, why should he force himself to fight with these two people?
Do they really think he's made of iron?
Moreover, this kind of behavior was actually very common in the Tianxuan Sector.
It was just that …
Chen Xi had always prided himself as an outstanding young man in the new century, so when his' little trick 'was exposed by Bai Hong, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
He always felt that he was like Demon King Kuba in "Super Mario", and Bai Hong and Qing Luan were Super Mario Brothers.
The two brothers represented the righteous side and bravely fought against the evil Demon King Kuba in order to save Princess Shuixiang …
Ashamed, ashamed …
Bai Hong waited for a while.
Seeing that Chen Xi had been silent, he suddenly changed the topic and asked with a bit of probing, "I think … Mister, you have to keep us here today?"
"Yes."
At this point, Chen Xi didn't hide anymore and simply nodded straightforwardly.
Hearing this, Bai Hong asked in confusion, "May I ask, Mister, what kind of deep grudge do you have with us? Why do you have to kill us all? "
Hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but be stunned.
This guy's tone …
Why does it sound a little strange?
Aren't Chang Li and Shui Xiang his companions?
Chen Xi first killed Chang Li, then injured Shui Xiang, but judging from Bai Hong's reaction now, these two people didn't seem to have as high a position in his heart as Chen Xi thought …
Chen Xi was a little confused, so he didn't immediately reply.
Seeing this, Bai Hong continued to say, "I think Mister also knows that it's not easy for us to cultivate to this point …
"So, if I may be so bold, Mister …
"Let us live!"
This guy was rather straightforward.
Seeing that he couldn't beat Chen Xi and couldn't escape, he actually directly begged for mercy …
In the end, it was because there wasn't any irreconcilable hatred between them.
From the moment he escaped from the formation, Bai Hong realized that he was no match for this mysterious man in front of him.
Knowing that he couldn't win but still fighting with his life, this was definitely not a decision that a smart person would make.
After all, death was the end of all troubles. Only by living would there be hope for the future.
For an immortal cultivator like Bai Hong, who was more rational than emotional, this was indeed a very simple choice.
This time, it was Chen Xi's turn to have a headache.
After all, he wasn't some cold-blooded demon king.
Since Bai Hong had lowered his head and admitted defeat, then …
Should he kill him or not?
Chen Xi seriously considered this question.
Perhaps it was because he had been in normal society for a long time, the current Chen Xi was obviously more humane than when he was in Heavenly Spiral.
But there was an old saying: Letting the tiger return to the mountain would cause endless trouble in the future.
Therefore, after some serious consideration, Chen Xi came up with a compromise.
"How about this, if you can take one move from me, then I promise to let you live. How about it?"
As soon as he said this, Bai Hong couldn't help but smile. He hurriedly replied, "If that's the case, please enlighten me, Mister!"
It was the same as before.
However, Bai Hong clearly didn't understand what Chen Xi meant by one move.
