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

Dan Wang stood up, about to draw his sword.

Venerable Qingmeng quickly stepped in front of Chi Miao, patiently explaining, "Hey, hey, hey! Don't make a move! Don't be so hasty! He was just joking. If he doesn't want to give it to me, he doesn't have to. Don't yell at the kid!"

Dan Wang scoffed, "Scolding a kid? Didn't you want to make me pay?!"

Venerable Qingmeng was about to cry.

He's innocent!

It wasn't him who said that at all!

He was forced!

At this moment, Chi Miao, hiding behind him, shouted even louder: "What are you so arrogant about! You've been dead for so long, and you didn't even leave your inheritance to rot? And you dare to be so fierce to Venerable Qingmeng? Be careful, Venerable Qingmeng will make your soul disappear!"

Venerable Qingmeng was even more terrified. This time, he truly looked mournful and grabbed Chi Miao's hand, quickly backing away.

"Sis! You're my only sister! Be rational, I can't beat him! If we really anger him, neither of us will get anything!"

Chi Miao raised an eyebrow. "Of course I know you can't beat him."

You can tell directly from their aura.

Venerable Qingmeng: "Then? Let me go?"

Chi Miao laughed and said, "Impossible."

"Since you've already dangled this carrot in front of me, you either deliver on it, or... I'll get rid of you."

"Besides, if you were still alive and as powerful as you were back then, I certainly wouldn't dare to be so arrogant. But now you are just a lingering remnant in the Mirror of Rebirth, you are, and so is he."

"He might be able to beat you, but could he beat me?"

Chi Miao's words instantly awakened Venerable Qingmeng.

That's right!

Dan Wang could defeat him, but this was the Mirror of Rebirth, and Dan Wang couldn't do anything to Chi Miao!

wrong……

"Then why don't you do it yourself?"

Chi Miao: "Was I bragging?"

Venerable Qingmeng: "..."

If time could turn back, he would never have made such a boast!

They really shot themselves in the foot!

Before his death, Venerable Qingmeng asked, "If he really wanted to beat me, would you stand by my side?"

Chi Miao: "Of course I'll stand by your side without hesitation! We're on the same side!"

Whether it was standing beside someone or next to a grave remains to be verified.

With Chi Miao's affirmation, Venerable Qingmeng felt much more confident, straightened his body, and narrowed his eyes.

"Alright! That's enough! I'll definitely get him for you today!"

Chi Miao looked at her with trust: "Keep going! I believe in you! My heart will always be with you! I will be your strongest support!"

"good!!!"

Venerable Qingmeng walked confidently and proudly toward the Pill King.

This was the first time he had ever been trusted so much! He was full of confidence!

Gou Shi System: "...Their era must have been very clean."

Chi Miao: "What do you mean by that?"

Gou Shi System: "Because he absolutely didn't expect you to play so dirty."

Using someone else to do your dirty work, cheating and swindling!

If their era hadn't been so clean, how could they have been so easily fooled?!

Venerable Qingmeng once again came before the Pill King.

"You! Hand over the inheritance! Or you'll regret it!"

Dan Wang: "...Get lost."

Neuropathy.

As he uttered the word, the hilt of his sword shot out and struck Venerable Qingmeng.

Venerable Qingmeng was knocked back onto Chi Miao.

He immediately burst into tears, pointing at Dan Wang and complaining to Chi Miao, "He hit me! Say something!"

"Waaaaaah!"

Chi Miao: "..."

Pill King: "..."

Gou Shi System: "..."

They really think too highly of dogs.

Chi Miao sighed, "You, Venerable One, are truly spineless."

It rolled down in the blink of an eye.

Just then.

Dan Wang pointed at Chi Miao: "If you want my inheritance, then fight for it yourself. I have always acted independently during my lifetime, only doing what I believe in. My inheritance... will only be given to those I recognize!"

"If you want it, then... fight me!"

Chi Miao laughed, a hint of interest appearing on her refined face: "Okay."

Dan Wang was taken aback: "So readily?"

Chi Miao: "Hmm! But before we fight, I have to ask you a question."

Dan Wang gazed intently, and then generously gave Chi Miao this opportunity.

After all, the fact that he readily agreed to acquire it through his own abilities already impressed him.

If Chi Miao really forces him by claiming to be the owner of the Rebirth Mirror, he can perform a feat of complete annihilation on the spot!

Even if he dies, he cannot go against his own will.

Chi Miao asked, "Do you want to fight fair and square, or unfairly?"

Pill King: "Hmm??"

"Is there such a thing as aboveboard and not aboveboard?"

Chi Miao: "Of course, I am the master of the Mirror of Rebirth. If I don't fight you fair and square, I can crush you until there's nothing left. Conversely, if you are a powerful being from a previous era, you can crush me until there's nothing left either, even if you don't fight me fair and square."

"If we don't decide in advance, we'll both suffer."

Dan Wang had a sudden thought and realized that what Chi Miao said made a lot of sense.

"Indeed, nothing can be accomplished without rules, and the same applies to duels."

He then smiled, put his hands behind his back, and looked every bit the expert.

"I, Chen Tai, am known to the world as the King of Pills! This is because… I do not pursue high or low levels of cultivation, but only the limits of those levels!"

"I spent ten years building my foundation and fifty years cultivating my golden core, all for the sake of becoming invincible within my own realm!"

"Back then, I was invincible, crushing everyone at the same level!"

"Then, having attained the ultimate Dao, they left behind their legacy here."

"You're at the Foundation Establishment stage, so I'll suppress my cultivation level to that. If you can withstand three of my moves, I'll agree to give you my inheritance. How about it?"

Chi Miao's eyes lit up: "No problem!"

After saying that, she had a thought, and the scene around her transformed into a huge enclosed arena.

"Mirror Spirit, come and bear witness!"

The Mirror Spirit jumped onto the arena and happily shouted, "Here I come!"

Venerable Qingmeng, standing to the side, also became quite interested: "What about me? What about me? What should I do?"

Chi Miao glanced at him and said, "Get out."

Having said that, an invisible force sent Venerable Qingmeng flying, and also sealed the door shut.

Venerable Qingmeng: "???"

"That's outrageous!!"

They were just not useful, and you treat them like this!

Don't you know you should care for the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled?!

Chi Miao: "..."

He's incompetent but talks a lot.

She mercifully opened a window for Venerable Qingmeng.

Venerable Qingmeng chuckled and quickly climbed out the window to look: "I knew they wouldn't be willing to lock me out."

The spirit glanced at him and rolled its eyes.

Then, looking at the two on the stage, he said, "Begin!"

After the sound fell, the "Dan King" in front of him unleashed his aura.

His words were no joke; he could achieve the ultimate in every realm!

Although it was just a lingering regret, the power suppressed within the Foundation Establishment stage still exuded an extraordinary aura.

He thrust out his sword!

A sword flashes amidst a storm! A figure follows closely! The terrifying power far surpasses the comprehension of ordinary Foundation Establishment stage cultivators!

Chi Miao's breath hitched, and he quickly used his swordsmanship to break the attack!

However, the sword move that Chi Miao used surprised the Pill King for a moment.

However, this still overwhelmed Chi Miao's defenses, and he was blasted away, becoming completely embedded in the wall.

That's incredibly strong!

But the stronger it was… the more excited she became!

She was about to retaliate when she saw a look of surprise on the face of the Pill King before her:

"You...who are you?!"
