Nie Bo, the big boss of the demon world, sat on the gloomy and majestic obsidian throne in the Demon Palace. His figure was hidden in the swirling black demonic energy, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes that flashed with ruthlessness and calculation. He sternly ordered his capable subordinates below the stairs: "The undercover agents sent to the fairy world must serve me well this time and discredit Ling'er according to the plan. If there is any mistake, you will all pay with your lives!" His voice was like a ghost crying in a cold night, echoing in the empty hall, making people tremble with fear.

The undercover agent who had been lurking in the fairy world for a long time, with a ghostly figure, usually disguised as an honest fairy servant, quietly doing the cleaning and chores in the fairy palaces, never attracting attention, but in fact secretly spying on the news from all sides and passing intelligence for Nie Bo for many years. This time, although he was a little hesitant in his heart when he received such a sinister order, he was afraid of Nie Bo's methods and still gritted his teeth and agreed.

He first spent several months carefully observing Ling'er's daily whereabouts and social circles in the fairy world, and knew that Ling'er often went to Lingxi Pavilion to study fairy magic and discuss spiritual plant maintenance techniques with several fairies. So, he chose a hidden corner near Lingxi Pavilion and set up a hidden magic array that could capture sounds and images, waiting for Ling'er to come.

One day, Ling'er walked into Lingxi Pavilion with a smile as usual, and shared her newly realized experience of immortality with the fairies in the pavilion. Her words were sincere and her face was pure. After Ling'er left, the undercover agent could not wait to activate the magic circle, and he disassembled and reassembled the fragmentary conversations he collected like a puzzle. He deliberately deleted the part where Ling'er talked about her admiration for the beauty of the fairy world and her care for her fairy friends, leaving only a few words of worrying about the safety of her adoptive father in the demon world and mentioning the affairs of the demon world. Then, through special rune secrets, the background sound was blurred, making these words sound like Ling'er was secretly planning to open a passage to the fairy world for the demon world and bring in disaster.

As for Nie Bo's secret order, it was originally a family letter instructing Ling'er to return to the fairy world and keep an eye out for the growth sites of several rare fairy herbs so that the demon world could exchange them for supplies in the future. After the undercover agent got the letter, he used magic blood ink to carefully alter the key sentences, distorting the well-intentioned instructions into obscure instructions for invasion, and imitated Nie Bo's handwriting to add a few arrogant words such as "When the time is ripe, we will cooperate inside and outside to overthrow the fairy world". Then he made the paper look old and fumigated it with special spices to make it emit the fragrance of old ink. It looked as if it had gone through years and there was no trace of forgery.

When the immortal guards received the secret report and found Ling'er in a rage, Ling'er was picking spiritual flowers by the immortal stream, preparing to give them to her immortal friend on his birthday. The immortal guards surrounded her in an instant and read out her crimes. Ling'er was struck by lightning, her eyes widened, her face full of panic and confusion: "This is a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding! Brother immortal guard, I came back on the orders of my adoptive father, and I have absolutely no evil intentions!" But the cold immortal guard seemed not to hear, and locked her slender arms with his iron-like hands and took her straight to the sky prison.

On the Immortal Trial Platform, the faces of the immortals were grim, and the immortals below were pointing and talking. Ling'er was escorted forward, looking at the forged recording stone and the fragments of the secret order on the table, tears welled up in her eyes, and she eagerly defended herself: "My immortal, please understand, this recording was edited maliciously, and the secret order was also tampered with. My loyalty to the immortal world is evident!" However, everything was in vain. When the recording was played, the noisy and broken sound became the ironclad evidence of Ling'er's "confession" in the ears of everyone; when the secret order was unfolded, the unclear and ambiguous handwriting was interpreted as evidence of treason and collusion with the enemy. The laws of the immortal world are strict, and with such "conclusive" evidence in front of her, it would be difficult for Ling'er to prove her innocence even if she had a hundred mouths.

Meizi was extremely anxious when she heard that her best friend was wronged. She tried to use her intelligence and past connections to clear Ling'er's name. She went to many places to meet the immortal and describe Ling'er's kindness and honest character. She also secretly visited a person who was proficient in runes and tried to decipher the traces of the recording and secret order. However, she was quietly blocked by the dark forces every time and the clues were repeatedly interrupted.

Ling'er was wearing shackles and imprisoned in the cold stone room of the sky prison. It was dark and damp, moss spread in the corners, and rats rustled around. She hugged her knees tightly, her tears soaked her skirt, and she was full of sadness and despair. This fairyland was once a place of light in her heart, but now it has become a cage that she cannot escape from. Her adoptive father Nie Bo, the relative who once gave her warmth and support, has become the one who pushed her into the abyss. The road ahead is bleak, and she doesn't know when she can see the light of day again and wash away this injustice.

When Meizi heard that Ling'er was wrongly imprisoned, she was extremely anxious, her eyes instantly turned red, she bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and secretly swore in her heart that she would definitely clear her friend's name. She knew very well that this time the opponent was insidious and cunning, and it would be difficult to find the truth by conventional means, so she had to take an unconventional approach.

The first stop was to sneak into the mysterious collection pavilion in the fairy world. The pavilion was full of dusty ancient books and runes. The slightest mistake would trigger the alarm. Meizi used the fairy method to hide her body, tiptoed to avoid the patrolling fairy guards, shuttled between the bookshelves, and carefully searched for the books that recorded the secrets of sound and rune decryption. Her fingertips brushed across the yellowed pages, and finally found an old book, which mentioned an ancient fairy formation that could identify traces of sound tampering. Although the formation was complicated and the spiritual objects required were rare, it was like a ray of hope, which ignited Meizi's hope.

Then, she disguised herself as a low-level fairy child who collected herbs and mixed into the team heading to the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm. The secret realm was rich in various spiritual objects, including the thousand-year-old spiritual crystal and dream grass needed for the formation. Along the way, Meizi pretended to be ignorant and deceived the evildoers who wanted to snatch the spiritual objects with ill intentions. After experiencing miasma and monster attacks, she found the spiritual crystal in a hidden valley deep in the secret realm and picked the dream grass in the cracks of the cliff. However, her arm was cut by the sharp rocks and bled, but she didn't care.

After returning to the Immortal Mansion, Meizi set up an immortal array in the courtyard according to the book, and placed the fake recording stone in the center of the array. The array pattern lit up, and the recording was disassembled and restored in the flashing light. At first, the fuzzy noise gradually became clear, revealing the awkward traces of editing and splicing. However, just as there was progress, a demon shadow suddenly attacked and destroyed the immortal array. Meizi was almost killed, but fortunately she escaped with the life-saving immortal weapon.

Seeing this road blocked, Meizi turned her attention to the remnant of the secret order. She heard that there was a hidden strange man in Xian City who was good at distinguishing the authenticity of calligraphy and interpreting obscure runes. She found a small shop in a shabby alley, which was full of calligraphy and paintings. The strange man looked at the secret order for a long time with sharp eyes, pointed out the strangeness of the ink color and brushwork, and also found that the paper fibers were magically processed, but the strange man was under mysterious coercion and did not dare to come forward to testify.

Meizi was not discouraged. She checked the duty records of the immortal class and locked on a suspicious immortal who had had contact with the undercover agent. She followed him quietly for several days, and captured him when he was in contact with the secret line of the demon world. With coercion and inducement, she finally pried out the details of the undercover conspiracy and Nie Bo's instructions. She recorded the detailed confession in a book, and with the evidence in her hand, she rushed to the Immortal Trial Platform again, determined to break through the dark cloud of injustice for Ling'er.
