On the top floor of Lingyun Pavilion, the room was slightly dim, and the lamps around it were glowing softly. Although the sun is shining outside, the windows are shaded by dense roller blinds, giving the room a sense of privacy. The spacious room is covered with a red plush blanket with the pattern of flowing clouds, the hallmark of the Cloud Shadow School. On both sides of the room sat dozens of elders from the Qingyun Sect and the Zixia Sect, led by Wei Shu, the head of the Cloud Shadow Sect. In front of each of these elders was a small table with a cup of tea on top of it, which was gently twisting and churning in the dim space with curling smoke. In addition to these elders, several maids stood and poured tea and water for these elders. Mei Ling stood alone in the center of the room.

After the Zixiamen elders' verbal sword attacks, Wei Shu frowned, leaned forward slightly, stared at Mei Ling with empty eyes, and asked, "Elder Mei, do you have an explanation for what the Zixiamen elders said!?"

"I didn't poison the door master!, it was indeed the door master who agreed to let the people from the Fire Feng Sect enter Zixia Mountain before giving me the pass order!" Mei Ling had tears in the corners of her eyes, and she was obviously very sad about the death of the door master.

"Nonsense! Do you know that there were thousands of people from the Fire Maple Sect who entered Zixia Mountain at that time, and how big the crisis was to let these thousands of people from the Fire Maple Sect settle in Zixia Mountain? I don't think it is possible for the Sect Master not to know, no matter how close you are to the Sect Master, she will not agree to hand over the Pass Order to you! Even if the Gate Master agreed to let the people of the Fire Maple Sect settle in, then why didn't she personally lead it? And why didn't she inform everyone of this? It must have been you who poisoned the Gate Master and took the Pass Pass!" A Zixiamen elder pointed at Mei Ling and scolded loudly, spitting in his mouth, as if he wanted to swallow Mei Ling.

"I ......" Mei Ling burst into tears for a while, her cheeks were flushed, she didn't know how to speak, she stirred her fingers together, and looked very nervous.

Seeing this, Wei Shu waved lightly to the excited elders to make them silent, and then whispered to Mei Ling: "Mei Ling, you tell me the truth, if the door master is not poisoned by you, I will naturally investigate this matter thoroughly and give you justice!"

"I ......" Mei Ling was stumbling, her face was as red as blood, and it took a long time to squeeze out a few words, "Because...... for I promised to be with you that night...... Joined hands with the sect master, so the door master agreed to let the people of the Fire Feng faction settle in!"

"Cooperation!?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, everyone was surprised, stared at Mei Ling with round eyes, and opened their mouths wide.

Wei Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, nodded slightly, and then continued to ask: "If this is the case, then it is possible to promise you! But...... Since she promised to send the people from the Fire Maple Sect to Zixia Mountain, why didn't she personally lead it, and didn't tell the elders about it?"

Mei Ling was stunned, she took the token in a hurry, but she really didn't think about it so much, why didn't the door master go in person and not inform the elders about it?

"Hmph! You are really shameless, you actually used such obscene remarks to excuse yourself and slander the dead door master! It is clear that you poisoned the door master! Now you can't explain it!?" A Zixia Sect elder said aggressively, gritting his teeth as he spoke, obviously full of hostility towards Mei Ling.

"Kill her!!"

"Kill her!!"

"Avenge the dead master!"

Many elders were clamoring, and seeing Mei Ling's overwhelmed appearance made them even more excited.

Wei Shu kept her eyes on Mei Ling, thinking in her heart, judging from Mei Ling's words and appearance, it didn't look like she was lying, so why would the master of Zixia Sect make such a big mistake and let the people of the Dehuo Feng Sect enter Zixia Mountain without personally leading it, and not telling everyone?

"Ahh

"Elder Yuan!?" Wei Shu frowned slightly, there were many elder disciples among the various sects, she couldn't recognize them one by one, but she knew about it, obviously this Elder Yuan was something she didn't know, she was a little confused at the moment, and asked the people below, "Where is Elder Yuan!?"

Everyone in the audience looked at each other, looked left and right, and after some commotion, no one agreed at all.

"Hmph, I think Elder Yuan is already dead, right??Do you want to use the dead to excuse yourself?!" a Zixiamen elder stared at Mei Ling with disdain and said coldly.

"What!?" Mei Ling, who was originally hopeful, was like being poured a basin of cold water, shivering with cold, and her whole heart was cold, if Elder Yuan was really dead, then who would prove her innocence?

Just when Mei Ling didn't know what to do, she suddenly rushed in from outside an elder, and after this elder entered, he walked forward quickly, came to Wei Shu, bent down to Wei Shu, and said, "Master, Elder Yuan, who was seriously injured, heard that you were trying Mei Ling, and specially informed his subordinates of the important matter, so that his subordinates could come and clarify the charges for Elder Mei Ling!"

"You say!" Wei Shu nodded, she had been frowning slightly, and the corners of her mouth even outlined a curved arc.

"Elder Yuan said that she was instructed by the Great Elder of Zixia Sect to send a girl to the main courtyard of the gate that day!" the elder said a word, and then he was speechless.

"And then?" one of the elders urged anxiously.

"And then there was no more! Elder Yuan fell into a coma after saying this!" the elder replied.

"Hmm!" Wei Shu bowed slightly, looked at the elder who had come to report the news, and then asked, "The Great Elder of Zixiamen is in the recuperation room!?"

"No...... No, it's already fallen in battle!" the elder replied.

"You stand down!" Wei Shu nodded again, she already knew the matter in her heart, shook her head slightly, and said to everyone, "Now that the matter is clear, it has nothing to do with Mei Ling! The Great Elder of Zixia Sect is dead, and this is also his retribution!"

"Master!?How can this prove Mei Ling's innocence? Even if you send a girl to serve the door master, it is impossible to poison the door master!" a Zixia Sect elder was still puzzled, and said bitterly.

"You really don't know that the master of Zixia Sect likes women's style!?Or do you pretend not to know!?" Wei Shu raised her voice and glanced at the elders present with a sharp gaze.

The elders of Qingyun Sect naturally didn't know about this, but the elders of Zixia Sect were all silent, obviously many of them knew that the master of Zixia Sect was a female style lover.

"But what does this have to do with the death of the sect master? how could a girl poison the door master? the door master is so powerful, won't he find out?!" Although the elders of the Zixia Sect began to waver in their hearts, they still didn't want to admit that the door master had died in such a mess.

"Don't forget that the person behind this girl is the Great Elder of the Zixia Sect! As for what means to use to poison the master of the sect to death, there is no need to think about this! But it was indeed this girl who killed her, there is no doubt about this! Then all doubts can be solved! At that time, the master of the Zixia Gate may have personally informed everyone and went to lead the Fire Feng Sect into the mountain, but it was delayed because of the arrival of the girl! This is the case! I declare that Elder Mei Ling is not guilty!" Wei Shu looked at Mei Ling with a smile and announced loudly.

Mei Ling had already burst into tears, and at the same time as the result was announced, she turned around and ran towards the outside of Lingyun Pavilion.

The people who were waiting anxiously outside saw Mei Ling crying and running out alone, and they were all confused. Guan Wenzheng hurriedly caught up, grabbed Mei Ling, and asked distressedly, "What's wrong!?"

Mei Ling glanced at Guan Wenzheng with tears in her eyes, then broke free and ran away sadly.

Guan Wenzheng was shocked, he didn't know why Mei Ling was so sad, did they want to impose the crime on Mei Ling? However, if Mei Ling's crime was convicted, she would not be able to run out so easily. So what exactly happened? Guan Wenzheng did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly chased after him.
