In a few words, Lingdie returned from afar.

Lu Shanyue raised her right hand, and the spirit butterfly landed on her fingertips, and the butterfly wings fluttered, as if she was saying something.

He listened for a while, with a little surprise in his tone, and asked sideways: "Senior brother, when did Changming Peak plant a sycamore tree?"

Gu Lingyun looked in the direction the spirit butterfly came from.With a fixed gaze, he passed through the stone forest and mountain peaks in the distance, and finally landed directly on the place Lu Shanyue said.

The deserted moonlight flowed quietly, sprinkled on the top of the sycamore tree.

Even Gu Lingyun didn't know when there was an extra sycamore tree on Changming Peak.

Changming Peak is located in the north, where it is bitterly cold all year round, everything is withered, and there is very little greenery.

But this sycamore tree stretched out its branches in the coldness of late winter, and the branches were full of leaves and full of vitality.

Looking carefully, there is still a bird's nest piled up on the branches of the plane tree, but the nest is not a bird, but... a shining gem.

Lu Shanyue's voice was soft, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "I finally found the star stone." He looked at Gu Lingyun, seemingly confused, and asked, "It's just... who stole it?" Starstone?"

Gu Lingyun's breath was cold all over his body, and his brows and eyes were stern, making it difficult to look directly at him.

Lu Shanyue didn't notice it at all, with a small smile in his eyes, he said slowly: "Plant sycamore trees and build nests in Changming Peak, and you can enter and leave Changming Peak at will..." He knew the reason and asked, "Senior brother, what do you think it will be?" who?"

Having said it so clearly, I almost have to say my name outright.

Gu Lingyun's eyes fell on a point in the void, and his brows frowned slightly, as if he didn't hear what Lu Shanyue said.

Lu Shanyue is a smart person, and she was not in a hurry to make a conclusion, but insinuated in a gentle tone: "It seems that some people are ignorant, and seeing the bright and beautiful star stone, they stole it away. It's not a big mistake. It’s enough for senior brother to teach you a thing or two in private, there’s no need to be too strict.”

His tone was gentle, it sounded like he was sincerely saying hello to the person who did the wrong thing, and he even said jokingly, "But it's okay to steal my things, if you take someone else's in the future, it will be bad if it spreads." It will damage Changming Peak's reputation."

Gu Lingyun stood in the dark, his expression hard to discern, and after a while, he finally spoke: "—Mu Zhi."

The sound was like a sword blade, three points colder than the cold wind, echoing on the top of Changming Peak.

After a while, there was a timid response from the corner.

I saw Mu Zhi slowly coming out from behind the rock, with a flustered expression, and his fingers were entangled nervously.

Mu Zhi thought he was eavesdropping on what they were saying, which made the Immortal Venerable unhappy, so he lowered his head guiltily, not daring to look up.

This scene fell in the eyes of others, which made the guilty conscience even more real.

With sharp scrutiny in Gu Lingyun's eyes, he landed on the thin figure, and asked bluntly, "Mu Zhi, did you take the star stone?"

Mu Zhi raised his head slowly, and said in a daze, "Starstone? What starstone?"

It seems that he has never seen Xingshi at all, let alone what Xingshi is, it does not seem to be fake.

Gu Lingyun knew that Mu Zhi was pure in heart and would not lie, so his expression was a little pale.

At this moment, Lu Shanyue interjected appropriately: "Senior brother, it doesn't have to be Mu Zhi, maybe... there is some misunderstanding in it."

Mu Zhi's eyes trembled for a moment, belatedly realizing what happened.

Xianzun is questioning him.

Because Lu Shanyue lost an important thing, and Xianzun felt that he took it away.

Mu Zhi thought he would be sad and wronged, but unexpectedly, his mood didn't fluctuate at all, only a dull pain came from his heart.

Lu Shanyue was still saying: "Mu Zhi, I believe in you, it is definitely not the star stone you took away, why don't you explain it to the senior brother quickly."

Mu Zhi pursed the corners of her lips, but said nothing.

He raised his head, and met Gu Lingyun's eyes through the heavy moon shadow.

Gu Lingyun's pupils were dark black, as black as ink, as calm as a frozen lake.There is scrutiny, there is indifference... but there is no trust.

Mu Zhi was a little cold, grabbed his collar, and said seriously: "Xianzun, I didn't take it."

Gu Lingyun and Mu Zhi's gazes touched for a moment, before Lu Shanyue made a statement, she spoke first: "Little Mu Zhi, don't worry, as long as you find the star stone, you can prove your innocence."

An imperceptible dark light flashed across Lu Shanyue's eyes.

Where is the star stone?

Nature is on the sycamore tree planted by Muzhi, and in the bird's nest built by Muzhi.

The evidence is conclusive, even if Mu Zhi is articulate, he cannot be cleared of the crime of theft.

Not to mention, Mu Zhi is a stupid little bird, so stupid that he fell in love with someone he shouldn't.

The smile on Lu Shanyue's lips was a little cold.

He and Gu Lingyun grew up together, and they couldn't understand each other better.

Gu Lingyun is a person with a cold temperament and weak kinship, he cares about nothing but the sword in his hand.

However, he pays great attention to promises, as long as he promises, he will do it no matter what.At the same time, he also believes in rules and regulations, and never favors others for personal gain.

Now that the evidence is in front of him, even if Gu Lingyun wants to favor Mu Zhi, there will be a rift between the two of them.

And he only needs to seize this opportunity and enlarge the crack infinitely.At that time, it will naturally prevent the two from becoming Taoist couples.

But in a flash, Lu Shanyue became weak and gentle again.He raised his hand, and the spirit butterfly fluttered at his fingertips, the wings were almost transparent.

The spirit butterfly flapped its wings to lead the way, leaving a crystal clear trace in midair.

Lu Shanyue raised his heels and suggested with a smile, "Why don't you go and have a look first?"

Before the words fell, he left first.

Standing in the night, Mu Zhi looked at Lu Shanyue's back, feeling uneasy in his heart.

He was sure he hadn't stolen anything, but he couldn't help being afraid.

Without him, it's just that he is too familiar with this development.

It's like this every time, obviously he didn't do anything, under Lu Shanyue's gentle persuasion, everyone will think that he did something bad, and then hate him and hurt him.

The former "everyone" was a disciple of Disciple Hall, but now he has become an immortal.

Mu Zhi panicked and went to the doctor in a hurry. He reached out and grabbed the corner of Gu Lingyun's clothes, begging in a low voice: "Immortal Venerable, can you not go?"

In fact, what he really wanted to say was not this sentence, but——can you believe me.

Gu Lingyun looked down.

The night wind at Changming Peak was icy cold, and the young man's forehead hair was disheveled and his cheeks were pale. Only a pair of eyes were bright, as if they contained a clear spring, crystal clear to the bottom.

Anyone who sees these eyes will soften their hearts.

Gu Lingyun also softened his heart, but only for a short moment.After this moment, he abruptly pulled off the corner of his clothes, and asked indifferently, "Did you take the star stone?"

Mu Zhi's hand was empty, and his fingers were grasped in vain, but he didn't catch anything.

The same question was asked twice, and his answer was the same: "I, I didn't steal."

Gu Lingyun's eyes deepened: "Then why don't you dare to go?"

Mu Zhi: "It's not that I dare not go, it's, it's..." His mouth was stupid, he didn't know what to say, his expression was a little downcast, and he didn't want to say any more, "Xianzun, you don't believe me."

Gu Lingyun said lightly: "Believe it or not, it's not up to me."

It's not that Gu Lingyun doesn't believe in Mu Zhi, but in his eyes, actual evidence is more important than one-sided belief.

In other words, it is precisely because Gu Lingyun believes in Mu Zhi that more evidence is needed to prove all of this.He never wavers because of feelings, nor does he favoritism because of feelings.

Gu Lingyun took a deep look at Mu Zhi: "Let's go."

Mu Zhi seemed to understand something, and followed with heavy steps.

No matter how unwilling Mu Zhi was, she couldn't stop Lu Shanyue from performing.

Lu Shanyue walked all the way and came to the plane tree.With a flick of his long sleeve, a gem rose up from the bird's nest under the vibration of the aura, suspended in mid-air, emitting a bright streamer.

With Lu Shanyue and Gu Lingyun's cultivation base, it only takes one glance to see that the bird's nest is full of Mu Zhi's aura.

The bird's nest was built by Muzhi.

And the star stone is in the bird's nest.

unambiguous evidence.

Under the reflection of the light, Lu Shanyue became more and more compassionate, "I didn't expect..." The unfinished words were hidden between his lips and teeth, and he put them down gently, "Brother, let's just forget about it."

Gu Lingyun's expression was stern, and it was impossible to see what he was thinking.

Mu Zhi was half a step behind, and when he saw this scene, he stayed where he was.

He thought that Lu Shanyue was slandering him again, but he never thought that the beautiful stone in the bird's nest was the lost star stone.

"I really didn't take it, I didn't steal it!" Mu Zhi was extremely surprised, without any preparation, he could only stammer and explain, "Yes, yes..."

Lu Shanyue asked gently: "What is it? Could it be that someone stole the star stone and used it to frame you?"

Mu Zhi immediately shook his head in denial: "No!"

No one framed him.

This gem was given to him by Uncle Xianhe.But...he believed that Uncle Xianhe would not steal anything!

Mu Zhi wanted to clarify the facts, but he was afraid of being confused by Lu Shanyue, so he hesitated and couldn't explain anything.He was really anxious, his eyes were red, and he seemed to be about to cry.

Lu Shanyue looked kind and gentle: "Xiao Muzhi, my heart will melt when you cry." He held the star stone and said tactfully, "However, this star stone is life-saving for me. If it’s not like this, it’s fine to give you the star stone directly.”

Mu Zhi's reaction was fierce: "I don't want it!"

Although Mu Zhi is innocent, she won't be fooled again and again.

He doesn't want anything from Lu Shanyue.

But this meaning was misunderstood by Lu Shanyue: "It seems that you really like this star stone, hey - otherwise, when I recover from my illness, I will go to the South China Sea to get a star stone and give it to you .It’s just that you have to promise me first, and you can’t take it without asking in the future.”

Taking it without asking is stealing.

In a few words, Lu Shanyue's attitude was like spring breeze turning into rain, and she easily put the name of theft on Mu Zhi's head.

Mu Zhi couldn't say no to Lu Shanyue, only knew that he couldn't admit it so easily, and kept repeating stubbornly: "I don't want it, I didn't steal it, I don't want it..."

He's close to breaking down.

No one believed him, even the Immortal Venerable...

Lu Shanyue looked slightly pleased, and was about to continue speaking, completely breaking Mu Zhi and losing his composure: "It's okay..."

Gu Lingyun seemed to have finally had enough of this farce, and interrupted Lu Shanyue in a cold voice: "Shut up."

Lu Shanyue stopped talking.

For a while, under the plane tree, only Mu Zhi was talking back and forth: "It's not me, it's not me..."

Gu Lingyun frowned, and said in a cold voice, "Mu Zhi, look at me."

Mu Zhi was stunned for a moment, forgot what to say, and slowly turned his head to look over.

Gu Lingyun stared at Mu Zhi, and asked again: "Did you steal the star stone?"

Mu Zhi was already a tight bow, and the bowstring was just about to break.Hearing this question, he had tears in his eyes, and his voice was sharp: "I don't! I really don't!"

Gu Lingyun said, "Okay."

He didn't say anything, but flicked his fingers, and a burst of spiritual energy shot out.

The aura hit Lu Shanyue's wrist.

Lu Shanyue pretended to exclaim, let go of her fingers, and let the star stone fall down.

However, the star stone did not fall to the ground, but was lifted and suspended in mid-air by the aura.

Gu Lingyun's lips were thin and parted slightly, and he silently read two words: "Backtracking—"

Back in time.

This is an incomplete ancient formula that can turn back time and reproduce the past.

This is a method that consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and because the secret book is incomplete, if you are not careful, it will be eaten back by time.

Lu Shanyue's expression flickered.

Unexpectedly, in order to prove Mu Zhi's innocence, Gu Lingyun would use such a big hand.

After uttering the word "backtracking", a majestic spiritual energy surged, forming a vortex on the top of Changming Peak.

The spiritual vortex twisted, and the pictures of the past appeared one by one.

However, because the method of going back in time is incomplete, the pictures that appear are also fragmented and uninterrupted.

Only a star stone could be seen looming, and then a crane fluttered its wings and landed on Changming Peak with the star stone in its mouth. Finally, the star stone lay quietly in the bird's nest.

The screen is terminated.

The aura receded like the tide.

Mu Zhi stared wide-eyed, watching the flickering scenes.

Does this... prove that he didn't steal the star stone?

Lu Shanyue said regretfully, "Fortunately, I didn't misunderstand Xiao Muzhi..."

Gu Lingyun glanced coldly and swept over.

Lu Shanyue kept his mouth shut, he could bend and stretch, and without Gu Lingyun's reminder, he took the initiative to apologize to Mu Zhi: "I'm sorry, little Mu Zhi, I was too impatient."

Mu Zhi was already in despair, but now he has turned around, not only proving his innocence, but also making Lu Shanyue apologize.

This time, Lu Shanyue's strategy did not succeed.

Does this mean that Xianzun still believes in him?

The two kinds of joy superimposed together made Mu Zhi dizzy, as if he had stepped on cotton.

However, before he was happy for too long, he heard Lu Shanyue say: "Now that Xiao Muzhi's innocence has been proved, it's time to punish this thief severely."

Mu Zhi was stunned again.

Thief?

Where did the thief come from?

Lu Shanyue saw Mu Zhi's confusion, and said slowly, "Of course...the thief who stole the star stone and used it to frame Xiao Mu Zhi."
