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

Before seeing Yan Ge's appearance, Chi Miao always thought that Elder Pu Qing's words were a joke, nonsense, or the beautiful imagination of a sasaeng fan.

After seeing Yan Ge's real appearance, she felt that Pu Qing was being too modest.

How can we accurately describe what Yan Ge's real appearance looks like?

That is indescribable.

He's... that kind of breathtakingly handsome, universally adored, and so strikingly handsome that cars would get flat tires just by looking at him! He's completely unaffected by styling, he can pull off any hairstyle, even if you put a bald patch on him—he's still handsome!

Just pure handsomeness, pure handsomeness without any skill!

Ying Wuhuo, a member of the contemporary prodigy group, is the most handsome man in Miaohua Continent, whose looks are among the top three!

His face needs no further explanation, right?

If he was a perfect 10, then Yan Ge's face was—

"One hundred points! It has to be one hundred points!!!"

Yes, he breaks all standards, his handsomeness is beyond imagination, the kind of handsomeness that no one could possibly imagine. He's the pinnacle of good looks in the entire article! A god-like face that will eclipse all others!

Yan Ge: "You even gave me a rating?"

Chi Miao: "Tsk, even your voice sounds better now."

Yan Ge: "..."

Damn it, he's going to sue you for sexual harassment!

How could his apprentice be such a scoundrel!

Chi Miao: "Oh, it's not just me who's like this, everyone in the Prodigy Group is like this."

The members of the Prodigy Group nodded in agreement.

Yan Ge: "???"

No, why are all the geniuses of your generation like this!

Chi Miao: "It's not just our generation, if I'm not mistaken... your generation was like that too."

Yan Ge: "Huh?"

Chi Miao: "For example, Elder Puqing, who guards the Danwen Pavilion at Jinfo Temple, seems to have a crush on you."

Yan Ge: "Huh??"

Chi Miao: "Don't you know? Then Master, you are truly guilty of heinous crimes. If you don't believe me, ask Jingming. He was with me, and we all know."

Jingming nodded in shame: "Everyone says that they can't easily mention your name in front of Elder Puqing, or even mention Nine Swords Mountain and Thunder Punishment Peak. I never thought... Amitabha, Elder Puqing has already entered the Buddhist order. Let him go."

Yan Ge: "Huh???"

He was utterly shocked.

Then, with a strange expression, he muttered to himself, "So the reason they secretly got me food, picked out clothes for me, carried my rare treasures, smiled at me all the time, and elected me as the top prodigy was actually... my face?!"

This time, it was the group of prodigies who were shocked: "What?! Explain in detail!"

Are the melons from the older generation really that delicious?!

Chi Miao immediately prepared the sunflower seeds and distributed them one by one.

Yan Ge took a deep breath: "This face... it's a disaster! I think I'll just keep the fake face on!"

As he spoke, he put on a fake face again.

Chi Miao couldn't help but complain, "So ugly."

Yan Ge remained silent, then removed his fake face.

Chi Miao's eyes sparkled: "So handsome!"

Yan Ge put on the fake face again.

Chi Miao: "So ugly."

In the next few face-changing performances, Chi Miao also demonstrated what face-changing truly means.

This made Yan Ge somewhat withdrawn: "Damn it, I'm your master! What business is it of yours whether I'm handsome or ugly? Say another word and I'll take you down with me!"

Chi Miao pointed his finger and clicked his tongue several times before saying, "This is a long question. Looking at handsome things too much is pleasing to the eye, while looking at ugly things too much shortens one's lifespan. You'd better not flaunt your ugly old man's face. I'm embarrassed to call you my master."

"Please! Looks matter in the cultivation world too, okay?"

Even the least attractive cultivators are not too bad-looking, which is one of the reasons why some beauty-conscious people choose to pursue immortality.

Given how ugly Yan Ge was before, Chi Miao should have suspected something long ago.

Yan Ge: "..."

Speechless.

Chi Miao: "Getting back to the point, what exactly happened back then? Even if you don't tell us, we already know."

Yan Ge: "What do you know?"

Chi Miao, her eyes shining with excitement, exclaimed, "It's just about you two! You love her! She loves him! And she married him! You took his wife and your 'the one who loves you' to the outside world! In the end, the one you love was manipulated into killing you, and the one who loves you killed her! To save you, he fell into the demonic path and then destroyed our entire Thunder Punishment Peak!"

"I've already figured out this ridiculous relationship!"

there is only one truth!

That's everything, everyone's a villain!

Upon hearing Chi Miao's long explanation, Yan Ge was immediately shocked and exclaimed in astonishment and disbelief, "Huh?"

He didn't understand a single word!

Yan Ge looked at the group of prodigies: "Did you understand?"

The members of the Prodigy Group: "Quiet! I'm having a barbecue!"

"Oh no, I'm thinking!"

Yan Ge felt his brain wasn't working properly: "Let me sort this out."

"What's wrong with your version?"

"What do you mean, 'me,' 'her,' 'him,' 'him'? Who am I? Who are they?"

Chi Miao clicked her tongue and nudged Yan Ge with her elbow: "We're like brothers, why are you hiding this from me?"

After speaking, Chi Miao recited all the conclusions that had been drawn so far, without omitting a single word!

She was eating sunflower seeds as she talked, she was really enjoying herself!

Is there anyone in this world who can resist gossiping about others?

No!

Chi Miao has a particular fondness for gossiping, especially about gossiping about people in front of them!

That was awesome!

Chi Miao was looking forward to it.

Yan Ge was speechless: "What are you talking about? Things aren't like that at all!"

Chi Miao: "So what? Senior Brother Rong Yue is the first disciple, so he's the legitimate son. He's both afraid of your gaze and longs for it. Senior Sister Yun Mo is the second disciple, treated as an illegitimate child, and you dote on her. Then Senior Brother Rong Yue gets jealous and uses the fact that legitimate children can sell illegitimate children to sell Senior Sister Yun Mo to the Heavenly Sword Sect, and then..."

Chi Miao rattled off a whole bunch of nonsense.

It's probably something like the cult of legitimate and illegitimate children and the kind of literature about coquettishness.

Yan Ge: "Huh???"

He couldn't understand, but he was greatly shocked, wondering what exactly was going on in his disciple's head.

Yan Ge was a bit withdrawn: "This time it's my turn to barbecue, oh wait... think."

Chi Miao: "Why don't you just say it?"

Yan Ge had a headache: "Tell me first, how exactly did you come up with all this nonsense?"

Chi Miao was particularly diligent in supplementing all the information they already knew, which was roughly about the Pill King and his cultivation method, as well as the fact that Yun Mo was being controlled by someone.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ge suddenly lost his composure, and his eyes turned red.

"An incomplete cultivation technique? And...she's being controlled?!"

As he spoke, he completely lost control and grabbed Chi Miao's shoulder.

Chi Miao was somewhat bewildered, but she could directly sense Yan Ge's emotional fluctuations.

She paused for a moment and then nodded.

"hold head high?"

"What's your story? Please begin your performance."

Yan Ge clenched his fists tightly: "It's all my fault...it's all the fault of the Heavenly Sword Sect!!"

"then……"
