The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

Chi Miao spoke with a sword pressed against his neck. Even the powerful figures present, some at the Nascent Soul stage and others at the Mahayana stage, were on tenterhooks, their faces growing increasingly tense.

"What a smart child!"

It would be difficult for anyone else to remain so calm and composed in front of so many powerful figures, especially a Mahayana cultivator who wanted to kill them.

She not only did it, but she even planned out her escape route.

She turned the threats here into her own sword!

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Wenren Xiao.

Wenren Xiao clenched his fists, never imagining that one day he would be threatened by a Foundation Establishment stage girl in this situation!

Others advised him:

"Sect Leader Wenren, she's just a child. Why bother with her? Do you really intend to kill her in the future? It's not good for your reputation to make things difficult for a Foundation Establishment cultivator when it gets out."

"Yes, Sect Leader Wenren, you can't be so petty as to hold a grudge against a junior, can you? It's fine to bicker with Nine Swords Mountain normally, but to really mess with a junior... that's unethical."

"Moreover, this junior is the most prominent among the new generation of Nine Swords Mountain. Putting aside the matter of the Heavenly Sorrow Cave, she alone brought the blessing of advancement to the entire cultivation world. To harm her is to offend the entire cultivation world."

"Swear it, you won't lose out."

Chi Miao: "Yeah, it's like you dare to touch me without this oath. What I really want isn't an oath, it's an attitude!"

"Yes! All she wants is an attitude!"

"you--!"

These words made Wenren Xiao so angry that her whole face turned red.

Is everyone targeting him?

"Alright, alright, if you want me to swear I won't hurt you, I'll give you, my great benefactor of Miaohua Continent, face this time!"

Even if he doesn't hurt you, his disciple can kill you!

Just wait...

"I have heard of it—"

Just then, Yan Ge, who was standing nearby, stopped him: "Wait!"

Get sick!

Wenren Xiao was already feeling aggrieved. He had spent a long time mentally preparing himself before he was about to swear, but he was interrupted from casting the spell before he could even say two words.

"Are you two, master and apprentice, fooling around? Singing?!"

Yan Ge sneered, "Shut up! I'm talking to my disciple, what right do you, a brain-dead idiot, have to speak to me?"

Wenren Xiao gritted his teeth.

Damn! He's fallen so low that even Yan Ge can insult him like this? He's a Mahayana cultivator, after all! He's the leader of a sect!

Yan Ge looked at Chi Miao: "Disciple, he's not a morally upright person. He's corrupted the Heavenly Sword Sect, making them even more despicable than you. He might just turn around and order the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples to kill you. I have a sincere suggestion for you."

Chi Miao: "Please speak."

Yan Ge: "Make him swear that no one in his Heavenly Sword Sect will harm you, otherwise his cultivation will be completely destroyed and he will die on the spot."

With her conspiracy exposed, Wenren Xiao's expression clearly betrayed her embarrassment. She glared at Yan Ge with a dark look: "Don't make false accusations!"

"What's your hurry? Is it your turn to be in a hurry? It's basic courtesy to let people finish speaking. Why do you always interrupt others, you old fool? Are you an orphan like me, born of a mother but raised without one?"

"you--!"

Wenren Xiao was so angry with Chi Miao that he almost vomited blood.

You keep calling him "Old Deng" and "no mother," who's really being rude?!

And whoever is swearing at others gets dragged into it too!

It has to be said that Chi Miao's offensive power is too strong. In terms of verbal skills, ten Wenren Xiaos would not be a match for Chi Miao.

Seeing that he had fallen silent, Chi Miao then spoke:

"Don't worry, Master, there's no need for that. If that brainless idiot can think of it, how could I not?"

"The disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect want to kill me? Let them kill me! If they have the ability, bring it on!"

"I, Chi Miao, am a troublemaker, but I'm not afraid of trouble! I'm making this clear: I welcome any disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect to challenge me to a life-or-death duel at any time, and I will never refuse! However, I'll say this in advance: I am invincible among those of the same level! And if I'm one level above, I can take on five at once!"

"If any of the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples harbor murderous intent towards me, I'll kill one if they come, and two if they come! I want to see if there are enough Heavenly Sword Sect disciples for me to kill!!"

The girl's arrogant voice was resounding and could be heard clearly throughout the entire meeting of the ten major sects, echoing endlessly.

Chi Miao had long thought of this cause and effect.

She stands here today representing the position of Nine Swords Mountain, and she absolutely cannot bow down to the Heavenly Sword Sect.

If the Heavenly Sword Sect wants to kill her, they will find ways to do so openly or secretly. Simply running away will not keep her safe!

Since she's already here, she might as well make the best of it. She's a cultivator with an extraordinary talent, surrounded by so many opportunities, what is there for her to be afraid of?!

She has been in the cultivation world for ten years, without parents, all alone, and she has survived all these years. Now that she has friends and a backer, how could she possibly die?

She has never been a delicate flower carefully nurtured in a greenhouse.

Chi Miao's words surprised everyone present, and the room fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone stared intently at Chi Miao, feeling a sense of awe.

"This woman... truly has a remarkable spirit."

With such temperament and spirit, coupled with extraordinary talent, if he truly grows up in the future, he will surely become a dominant figure who can make the entire cultivation world tremble with a stomp of his foot.

At this moment, a burly monk in the Golden Buddha Temple suddenly shouted "Good!"

"What spirit! What courage! What confidence!"

Suddenly, he threw a token at Chi Miao.

Chi Miao was taken aback: "What is this?"

The burly monk laughed loudly: "This is the Golden Token of my Golden Buddha Temple! Whoever holds this token is a distinguished guest of my Golden Buddha Temple, and will receive the highest treatment upon entering! If you ever encounter a life-threatening situation in the future, crush this golden token, and the Discipline Hall of my Golden Buddha Temple will be the first to step in and settle things for you!"

Everyone present gasped.

Golden Buddha Temple Golden Token!

This is a rare item!

Only those favored by the Golden Buddha Temple and so-called "destined people" can obtain it; there are no more than five people in the entire Miaohua Continent who possess the Golden Token.

Even the sect leaders of the other ten major sects don't have one.

So... it was just given to Chi Miao like that?

The Golden Decree of the Number One Sect Under Heaven!!

"Elder Pu Xie... are you openly making things difficult for me?" Wenren Xiao's face darkened further, and he gritted his teeth.

Elder Pushe snorted coldly, clearly not wanting to speak to him.

"What exactly is the attitude of your Golden Buddha Temple?!"

At this moment, Master Puning, surrounded by auspicious light, lowered his head and smiled.

"The attitude of Elder Puxie, the head of the Discipline Hall, is the attitude of my Golden Buddha Temple."

"Young friend Chi Miao has accumulated great merit and is a great benefactor of my Miaohua Continent. My Golden Buddha Temple welcomes you at any time."

Yan Ge's expression also changed. He quickly told Chi Miao to put away the golden token, and then looked warily at the Golden Buddha Temple.

"Friends are friends, but if you try to steal my disciple, I'll kill all the disciples of your Golden Buddha Temple."

Elder Pushe: "You are not worthy."

Seeing that things were going badly, Chi Miao quickly stepped forward: "Thank you, Elder Pu Xie! Thank you, Golden Buddha Temple!"

Elder Pu Xie became more and more satisfied with Chi Miao.

"What a polite and well-behaved child."

The people of Nine Swords Mountain: "..."

This is difficult to evaluate, so I will refrain from commenting.

Closer to home.

Elder Pushe glanced at Wenren Xiao again:

"Sect Leader Wenren, young friend Chi Miao's attitude is now clear. He's not afraid, so what are you still worried about? Or are you afraid?"

"Even if you're scared, you have to make this vow today, whether you want to or not!"
