Lu Fuyue fell to the ground with Lu Zhengming's force. She clutched her chest, secretly forcing out a mouthful of blood, pretending to have a seizure, and then looked up at Lu Zhengming in disbelief.

"You pushed me because of her?"

Everyone was shocked by her severely injured appearance.

So the law enforcement elder and several other elders quickly helped her up and fed her a pill.

Lu Zhengming was also stunned. Had he really used too much force?

After a long while, Lu Fuyue, supported by her attendant, looked at Lu Zhengming.

"Father, you don't believe me?"

"You pushed me for someone who wanted to kill me?"

Lu Zhengming's face stiffened; his actions just now had indeed gone too far.

Fu Yue's health is already poor. If something really happens to her, what will people think of her?

So he quickly helped Lu Fuyue to a chair nearby, and his attitude softened a bit.

"Fuyue, Father didn't mean it just now. I was just worried that you might really misunderstand Lian'er. After all, she's your junior sister. As her senior sister, you didn't need to make such a big deal out of it."

The elders standing nearby shook their heads upon hearing this. The sect leader usually didn't handle things this way. Why did he change his ways when his two disciples were involved?

Lu Fuyue shoved Lu Zhengming away, her eyes reddening again. "She's trying to kill me, and you expect me to give in?"

"Is she truly your daughter in your heart?"

"If I were to die at their hands one day, would you forgive them for me and cover for them?"

These were questions she had wanted to know after Lu Fuyue died in her previous life, when she saw the description of her father in that book.

In the book's plot, Lu Zhengming was actually always aware of the truth about her death, but in his view, his daughter was going to die sooner or later, so what difference did it make whether she died sooner or later?

Moreover, Lian'er was more favored by him than his daughter Fuyue; she was more talented and more endearing.

Therefore, he had no reason to ruin another daughter for the sake of a daughter who was already dead.

Lu Zhengming stiffened upon hearing Lu Fuyue's words, but quickly recovered.

Could it be that Fu Yue already knows Lian'er's identity?

He then calmed down and said, "Fuyue, what are you saying? If they really want to kill you, then your father will definitely stand up for you and will not tolerate it."

"Yeah?"

Lu Fuyue took a deep breath and smiled, "Alright, today I'll show you the true colors of these two."

After saying that, Lu Fuyue turned to the law enforcement elder beside her and said, "Uncle Law Enforcement, you should all know that my mother left me a precious Water Spirit Jade to nourish my body, right?"

The elder of law enforcement thought for a moment, then nodded. "That is indeed the case. I remember you always carried it with you, but why didn't I see you wearing it today?"

Upon hearing Lu Fuyue mention this Water Spirit Jade, Elder Dan also remembered that there was such a thing.

He told his mother that the Water Spirit Jade could nourish Lu Fuyue's body.

Unexpectedly, because of a casual remark he made, Lu Fuyue's mother specially found this treasure for her before she died.

“I remember too.”

The other elders had all watched Lu Fuyue grow up, so they naturally knew about this as well.

Lu Zhengming didn't have much of an impression, but seeing that so many people remembered it, it must be true.

However, what does this have to do with Qianci and Lian'er?

Mo Qianci was also puzzled as to why Lu Fuyue would bring up this jade pendant.

He only realized what was happening when he noticed Bai Lianlian's expression change drastically beside him.

Could it be that the Water Spirit Jade is with Lian'er?

He had just made this guess when Lu Fuyue spoke again.

“That piece of water spirit jade was of great significance to me, but it was taken from me by that demonic cultivator and then put around Bai Lianlian’s neck.”

Lu Fuyue suddenly pointed at Bai Lianlian's neck.

Bai Lianlian shrank back in fear. "No, that's not it... someone gave it to me..."

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and looked at Bai Lianlian's neck in unison.

There does seem to be something hidden there, but it's covered by clothes.

If that's really the case, then Bai Lianlian is incredibly shameless.

She stole the keepsake left to Lu Fuyue by her mother, had an ambiguous relationship with her fiancé, and kept smearing her image in the eyes of others. How vicious!

Mo Qianci subconsciously began to defend Bai Lianlian, "That piece of water spirit jade was clearly given to Lian'er by you. Can we conclude that Lian'er is colluding with demonic cultivators just because of a jade pendant?"

He still habitually thought that Lu Fuyue was the same Lu Fuyue who would have cared about his feelings.

Bai Lianlian wanted to say something when Mo Qianci defended her, but she had nothing to say.

"Mo Qianci, everyone knows that Bai Lianlian and I don't get along. How could I give her my mother's belongings? If you're going to lie, at least make it believable."

The elders all nodded, their gazes toward Mo Qianci now tinged with disdain.

However, Lu Zhengming said, "However, Fu Yue, a single jade pendant is indeed insufficient to prove that they colluded with demonic cultivators."

Lu Fuyue's heart sank completely; she had previously held a sliver of hope for Lu Zhengming.

Unexpectedly, his heart had always been biased towards Bai Lianlian, that illegitimate daughter.

Although they did not collude with the demonic cultivator, Bai Lianlian's relationship with that demonic cultivator was quite unusual.

Later in the story, in order to help that demonic cultivator, she secretly told him about the protective formation of the Tianxuan Sect, which almost led to the destruction of the Tianxuan Sect.

Moreover, Mo Qianci actually knew from the beginning that the demonic cultivator wouldn't harm Bai Lianlian, but he still chose Bai Lianlian. This was simply to show his love for Bai Lianlian in front of that demonic cultivator.

Bai Lianlian was no good person either. In order to test Mo Qianci's sincerity towards her and to get rid of her rival in love, she deliberately provoked the demonic cultivator, which led to her being pushed off the Endless Cliff by the demonic cultivator.

Neither of them is innocent.

Lu Fuyue slowly spoke, "Indeed, a single piece of water spirit jade cannot prove that you are colluding with demonic cultivators."

"However, the Water Spirit Jade has another special function, which is that it will remember and display the appearance of anyone who touches it."

Upon hearing this, Bai Lianlian's face turned pale, and she swayed unsteadily a few times.

It's over...it's all over...

Seeing Bai Lianlian's expression, everyone understood perfectly well.

However, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.

Then the elder in charge of law enforcement stepped forward and said, "Someone, take the water spirit jade off Bai Lianlian's neck."

"Yes, Elder."

The two disciples gradually approached Bai Lianlian.

Bai Lianlian kept backing away, then suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Zhengming, hugged his legs, and cried.

"Master, you must believe me. I didn't want to kill Senior Sister. It was that demonic cultivator who pushed Senior Sister down."

Mo Qianci knew at this point that his plan had been exposed.

According to the rules of the Tianxuan Sect, colluding with the demon race will result in the abolition of one's cultivation, the extraction of one's soul, and being thrown to the top floor of the Trial Tower to be fed to the demon beasts.

He knew that the only person who could save him at this moment was Lu Zhengming, so he knelt down in front of Lu Zhengming and shouted, "Master, you must believe your disciple! How could your disciple collude with demonic cultivators? That's completely impossible!"

Lu Zhengming's expression turned dark and unreadable. He hadn't expected that Bai Lianlian and Mo Qianci were really colluding with the demonic cultivators.

Even if he wanted to favor her, it was unlikely in front of so many elders.

Besides, Fuyue is also his daughter. If he pleads for her, how can he explain it to Fuyue?
