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

When the people at the bottom of the cave saw someone peeking out.

They instinctively shouted, "You bitch, get us up there right now—"

But when they realized that the person was Jingming, who was holding an extra-large shovel.

They seemed to have been struck on the head by something.

"???"

Jingming: "Amitabha Buddha."

After reciting the sentence, he decisively began to bury the soil!

The disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were all stunned with fear.

"You! Jingming, you—!"

"You actually colluded with Chi Miao?!"

Jingming threw a shovelful of dirt at his face, saying, "Amitabha."

Wenren Yi's eyes turned red with anger.

On what grounds?

Why is even Jingming following Chi Miao to mess with him?!

"You're in cahoots!"

"Amitabha." Jingming buried the earth.

"You are heartless and ungrateful!"

"Amitabha." Jingming continued burying the soil.

"You have treacherous ambitions!"

"Amitabha." Jingming continued burying the earth.

Jingming kept chanting "Amitabha," which could be considered kind, yet he was doing the cruelest things.

Is Amitabha Buddha some kind of spell or mantra?

The disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were truly panicked this time.

"You, you—"

Before he could finish speaking...

Jingming slightly opened his eyes.

"Noisy."

He put down the shovel and used his spiritual power to gather all the surrounding earth and press it into the deep pit.

Airtight.

Everyone was stunned, their minds blank.

So cruel!

Yu Wuxin quickly stepped forward and asked Chi Miao, "They're not really going to die in there, are they?"

Chi Miao: "No, the spirit-isolating array will be dispelled in ten minutes, and they will be able to come out naturally then."

Ten minutes is not an easy time for a cultivator to die.

Yu Wuxin breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "How did you manage to get Jingming to do something like that?"

He knew that the monk was no good, but the monk would never do such a thing in public!

Chi Miao patted his chest confidently: "Personal charm!"

Yu Wuxin: "?"

Chi Miao: "My personal charm completely won him over, making him willingly serve me."

Yu Wuxin's cerebellum atrophied: "Huh?"

Chi Miao: "Never mind that, let's go, it's almost time."

Everyone then glanced worriedly at the filled-in pit, and then decisively followed Chi Miao away.

People of the Heavenly Sword Sect can die, but they cannot be late.

while walking.

Yu Wuxin eventually walked over to Jin Shengfei and Ying Wuhuo.

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Wuxin asked, "How have things been at Nine Swords Mountain lately?"

Jin Shengfei: "Excellent, everything is thriving!"

Ying Wuhuo pondered for a moment, then hummed in agreement.

Yu Wuxin stopped and looked at everyone's backs, feeling like she couldn't think straight.

No.

Why?

Are all the people who have come into contact with Chi Miao possessed by evil spirits?

Could it really be Chi Miao's personal charm?

He really can't tell!

……

Training camp location.

Almost all the other sects have arrived.

This includes Jinfo Temple, Hehuan Sect, and Qin Sect.

There was only one minute left until the agreed time.

Pushee asked, "Where is the leader of your three families?"

The three families all said, "We don't know. We haven't seen anyone since early this morning."

A disciple of Jinfo Temple said, "As you know, Buddha, he has always preferred quiet and rarely keeps us company."

A disciple of the Hehuan Sect said, "My young master is the same. One of our disciples molested her before, and she hasn't followed us since."

"Aren't all the members of your Hehuan Sect girls?"

A disciple of the Hehuan Sect said, "Yes, there are lesbians. Times have become more open."

"……"six.

"Then...what about the Qin Sect? Yu Wuxin isn't a social butterfly, so surely he wouldn't have any problems, right?"

A disciple of the Qin Sect said, "Last night, the young sect leader said he was going to spy on Nine Swords Mountain, but a message was sent by carrier pigeon in the middle of the night saying he wouldn't be back tonight."

"What's he doing?"

A disciple of the Qin Sect said, "He said that the people of Nine Swords Mountain are interesting to talk about and fun to do. When they are short one person for a mahjong game, they insist that he stay. He can't refuse their hospitality."

"..." You are also number six.

Pushe snorted coldly, quite dissatisfied: "The other two are fine, but why is Jingming late? He is always punctual, and he never misses a day, even when he is not with the disciples of my temple."

"And then there's Nine Swords Mountain, Heavenly Sword Sect... If they don't come soon, I'll have to punish them according to the law."

He was easy to deal with from the Heavenly Sword Sect, but from Nine Swords Mountain... he was still a little reluctant to punish that cute little guy.

Just then, the brown-robed monk beside him said, "Elder, they've arrived."

Pushe looked up.

What happened next was something no one expected.

The people from Nine Swords Mountain arrived, and they also brought along three leaders from other sects.

Even Jingming is there!

The group of people were laughing and joking.

Everyone: "???"

What happened?

We met up last night and we're already this close today?

Are there magnets on Tianjiao's body that attract each other?

Pushe was stunned by what he saw.

"This...am I seeing things? Jingming is with them too?"

The young novice monk standing nearby said, "I'm not seeing things, that's a Buddhist disciple."

Pushe trembled all over, on the verge of tears: "Jingming actually... has already become so close to that little guy so quickly? I've never seen Jingming so close to anyone before, and he seems to be in a very good mood?"

"Jingming hasn't laughed like this in a long time!"

Although they were unaware of Jingming's true nature.

But I know that Jingming is a very distant person and has never been truly close to anyone.

As a result, he became one of the group in just one night.

They had long worried that Jingming's independence might leave him without support in the future.

They often advised Jingming to cultivate good relationships, and Jingming would always agree verbally, but then turn around and do his own thing.

This was the first time they had ever seen Jingming act this way towards someone.

That's truly rare! It's truly touching!

It's not hard to see that the key person... is Chi Miao.

It was Chi Miao who connected everyone together.

"As expected of the little guy I chose..." Pushe became more and more satisfied and proud as he looked at him.

How could he have been so insightful back then, handing the gold tassel to Chi Miao?

Let's see if the other elders will say he acted on his own initiative!

Chi Miao and the others stepped forward.

"Sorry we're late."

Pushe quickly cleared his throat, his voice full of indulgence: "It's alright, there are still a few dozen seconds left. I just arrived too early. Everyone, get back to your positions."

Everyone was surprised.

Is this still the Elder Pushe they know?

Someone was severely punished for making Elder Pushe wait for just one minute.

How come replacing Chi Miao makes it seem like they arrived early?

Has Elder Pushe changed his ways?

Several tens of seconds later.

Pu Xie flew into a rage, smashing the surrounding stones with a single palm strike: "How dare the Heavenly Sword Sect! A training camp for ten sects, and they make nine of them wait for them! What audacity! Do they think they're defying the heavens? Punish them! They must be punished! Punish them with extra training! Punish them without elixirs! Punish them with their meals! Punish them all!"

Everyone: "..."

It's only just started! You weren't like this with Nine Swords Mountain and the others earlier; you're being hypocritical!
