"Crows Mocking the Phoenix!"
Immortal Lord He barked, and a storm whirled in his palm. In an instant, the air throughout the great hall seemed to freeze over. The temperature plunged, and the fervor in the hall seemed to freeze along with it.
Seizing the opportunity, Immortal Lord He said in a ringing voice, "Since Elder Miao dares to make that promise, he can surely keep it. With all these eyes watching, could he deceive everyone?"
Elder Miao spoke up in a ringing voice. "Exactly. I, Miao, can swear a Heart Oath. Why must you all doubt me so?"
The mood in the hall shifted once more, and everyone fell into thought.
At this point, there was no reason to keep doubting Elder Miao.
After all, no one would willingly throw away their future in cultivation. Everyone feared the dreadful consequences of a Heart Oath.
Elder Miao could not go back on his word.
"Senior Brother Miao's credibility is certainly beyond reproach. It's just that..."
Before Elder Bai could finish, Immortal Lord He roared, "Bai Quanming, you've said quite enough today! You've stirred up trouble in Heavenly Dome Hall and incited the crowd. Your crimes are heinous. Say one more reckless word, and I, He, will show you no mercy!"
"What a mighty show of authority, Junior Brother He!"
Elder Hong sneered. "Who are you to stop Senior Brother Bai from speaking? Have you forgotten the difference between superior and inferior, or respect for elders? Has our Donghua Immortal Sect abandoned all such principles? Senior Brother Miao already made it clear that no one would stop Senior Brother Bai from speaking. So what is it, Junior Brother He? Do you have no regard for Senior Brother Miao, or are you trying to make him break his word?"
