I'm his wife, how come I don't know?

Jiang Chu slowly turned his head, his eyes piercing Cheng An like ice.

He covered his chest, as if there was an invisible scar there, deep and bottomless.

But then his eyes suddenly became aggrieved, and his voice trembled exaggeratedly:

"Cheng'an, I treat you like a brother, but you treat me like this. It's really chilling."

"You were bullied before, and I stepped forward to rescue you. You were short of spirit stones and inadequate equipment, and I generously gave you a helping hand. Even this mustard seed bag was given to you last time so that you could use it to carry spirit plants to build your spirit gathering bamboo house."

Jiang Chu's mouth curled up into a bitter sneer, his eyes were bloodshot, and his voice became deeper and deeper:

"I gave my true heart to the wrong person, but what I got in return was betrayal. From now on, our friendship is severed."

Cheng An's eyes were as big as bells. He was speechless and wanted to explain himself, but he seemed to be looking for a new excuse to continue to frame him.

"Brother Jiang - you, you, you are slandering me! You clearly gave me this mustard seed bag. You said it contained a million spirit stones and asked me to keep it safe!"

Jiang Chu shook his head lightly, his sneer was filled with helplessness: "Okay, okay, okay. My reputation as Jiang Chu is like a rat crossing the street, everyone wants to beat me. In this world, no matter who it is, it seems that they can slander me at will."

Looking at Jiang Chu's crazy and tearful appearance, Lu Shuyan's heart seemed to be pierced by an invisible needle.

He clenched his fists and spoke in an extremely cold voice: "Since we haven't found it, can our disciples from Xingchen Peak leave?"

Baili Wuyang didn't expect that Jiang Chu really didn't have a million spirit stones. For a moment, his brows furrowed and he fell into deep thought.

"Then where did these millions of spirit stones go?" His voice echoed in the hall, filled with confusion and anxiety.

"Could it be possible that it evaporated? Or did the demons sneak in and deliberately frame Jiang Chu?" Qi Ren roared loudly in the hall. His voice was like thunder, reminding everyone present.

"Are you kidding us?!"

Jiang Chu, who originally hated Qi Ren to the core, gave him a strange look at this moment.

Oh wow.

Qi Ren has become a prophet this time.

He revealed that he was banned by the system.

When Cheng An heard the words "demons have infiltrated", his face instantly turned snow-white, as if all the blood had been drained away.

Everyone frowned, even Baili Wuyang spoke up to stop them:

"This is Longyin Immortal Mansion, one of the five major sects. If he really cultivated magic, not only would he not be able to enter the mountain gate, he wouldn't even be able to fool the guarding spirit beasts."

Qi Ren turned his head and said stubbornly: "The loss of one million spirit stones is no small matter. As the biggest suspect, why should we let him go!"

Jiang Chu knew that the matter would not be resolved so easily, but his master did not say anything to stop him even though he was acting so crazy, which meant that he was not sure yet.

Jiang Chu had to continue acting. Jiang Chu sighed, his face turned serious, and he continued to immerse himself in the role.

Jiang Chu slowly turned his head and looked at Cheng An, his eyes like a knife: "You told me in person early in the morning that a million spirit stones were lost, but I don't know how you knew it?"

After Jiang Chu finished speaking, Cheng'an, who was originally shocked by Qi Ren's words "the demons have infiltrated", now came to his senses.

He never thought that Jiang Chu would turn against him at this critical juncture.

"How could I not do that? Senior Brother Jiang, why do you have to slander me—" Cheng An's voice was trembling, and his eyes were filled with anxiety.

Even though he is a spy of the demon clan, it doesn't mean he is not afraid of death...

Jiang Chu waved his hand and a jade slip appeared in the hall. On the jade slip, there was still clear trace of Cheng An calling him, and the time showed that it was before Lu Shuyan.

He said in a cold voice: "Also, you might as well ask the elder guarding the gate whether Cheng'an came down the mountain early in the morning and whether he came with me."

Jiang Chu secretly sighed in his heart, fortunately the jade slip did not have the video and audio recording functions like modern "mobile phones".

The storage stones that can record audio and video are extremely expensive, and most practitioners will not use them.

Otherwise, this little evidence of his would not be enough to slander Cheng An.

Cheng An looked at Jiang Chu who was rebelling against Tian Gang, and his face turned red with anger, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

Jiang Chu knew that he was still lacking a spark.

So he asked angrily, "So, you keep provoking me to do wrong things and slandering me. What do you want?"

When these last words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent.

Lu Shuyan also squinted his eyes and looked at Cheng'an.

He had never thought that a mere outer disciple would be so disrespectful to Jiang Chu.

What's more, I can't believe that a small outer disciple who seems to be a lackey actually did so much.

Jiang Cheng closed his eyes and waved his hand: "Forget it. Since the matter has not been investigated, Jiang Chu will be detained in the forbidden area for the time being. As for this outer sect disciple, he will be put in the dungeon."

"Wait until he confesses, and then we'll clear Jiang Chu's name."

"Junior brother, do you think this is fair?" Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at Xing Lan.

Xing Lan nodded: "Let's do this."

He stood up, his aqua blue robe fluttering in the wind. He lowered his eyes to glance at Jiang Cheng, then glanced at the people below the stage, and turned into a breeze and left the hall.

Seeing that his master had left, Lu Shuyan stepped forward and bowed: "Master Jiang, I will personally escort Jiang Chu to the forbidden area. As for this outer disciple, my junior brother will escort him to the dungeon."

Jiang Cheng nodded in agreement, waved his hand, collected the spiritual bamboo, and returned the mustard seed bag to Jiang Chu.

Feng Xiang stepped forward and bowed: "In that case, Sect Leader Jiang, I will take Cheng An away."

People from Xingchen Peak and the Law Enforcement Hall left one after another.

The two guards looked at each other, and saw cold sweat in each other's eyes.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to make a name for themselves in their lives.

"You guys go down too." Jiang Cheng said, and Baili Wuyang and Qi Ren left.

The two guards also left.

The entire hall was empty in an instant, and the grand door slowly closed, as if shutting out all the noise and disputes.

-

The wings of the wind beast drew elegant arcs in the sky.

Lu Shuyan sat on its back, his face grim, as if covered by a layer of invisible frost.

Jiang Chu sat quietly in the corner, staring at the rolling mountains and winding rivers below his feet with empty eyes.

Lu Shuyan glanced at Jiang Chu who was hanging his head beside him, and his cold eyes flashed with a look of disappointment.

Thinking of Jiang Chu's life experience, the mixture of pity and disappointment made him extremely irritated. He didn't even know how to face Jiang Chu who had grown up like this.

When he first came to the sect, he was so pure and innocent.

The youngest Feng Xiang is five years older than Jiang Chu, and he is ten years older than him.

Those deer-like eyes looked at the three of them with anticipation and fear.

He shouted timidly: "Hello, eldest brother, hello, second brother, hello, third brother..."

How come it has grown crooked like this now?

They arrived at the entrance of the forbidden area. The Wind Beast slowly landed. Lu Shuyan walked in front and stopped at the 9,999th step.

Here, is where they must enter on foot.

Jiang Chu understood the rules here and was also aware of his current situation.

He took the lead and stepped onto the first step, without even turning his head, he said, "Thank you, Senior Brother, for sending me here."

Lu Shuyan did not respond, but silently stepped onto the stone steps, walked up step by step, and surpassed him.

Jiang Chu followed closely behind, looking at Lu Shuyan's back, and for a moment he couldn't hate him.

But I don't know how to live in peace with him, and I really don't want to care about the lives of these people.

Looking at the slender and handsome back, Jiang Chu concentrated slightly.

A broken mirror cannot be rounded.

Overwhelmed with water.

Maybe it's really difficult between him and Lu Shuyan...

Lu Shuyan turned around, looked at Jiang Chu who was standing there, and said coldly: "Hurry up and catch up. What are you dawdling for?"

Jiang Chu's heart suddenly moved, and he felt a little defeated by this man who spoke hard but was soft at heart.

He hurriedly quickened his pace, hesitated for a while, and then replied sullenly:

"Here comes the eldest brother."

The sunlight shone through the clouds and onto them, with two figures standing one in front and one behind.

There was a gentle breeze blowing.

Cheng'an on the other side did not receive such good treatment.

Feng Xiang’s puppet is a vine, a poisonous vine.

Cheng'an was trembling with fear as he was entangled. The vines dripping with venom stared at him like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.

"So this is how you treat Jiang Chu when we can't see you?"

The gorgeous face in Feng Xiang was smiling, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Cheng'an felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.

A chill ran down my spine.
