"We are just running a small business, so we hope that the fairy will be lenient and return the spirit stones we owe."

The shop owner at the head of the group was crying his eyes out.

"Fifth Junior Sister really went too far this time." Luo Chu put on a distressed and disappointed look.

The IOU in his hand was shown to Wen Xuan and the others, and it was indeed Shen Sangruo's handwriting.

This was specially imitated by Luo Chu, so you can't tell the difference at all.

"The total amount of the IOUs and losses is 1245 high-grade spirit stones and 250 mid-grade spirit stones."

"My God, how could I owe so much?" Luo Chu covered her mouth, feigning surprise.

Looking at Luo Chu's affected manner, Bai Mumu thought he was as stupid as a pig.

In the past, Luo Chu's trick had always worked.

But this time is different from before; it's impossible that Shen Sangruo did this.

The number shocked Wen Xuan and the others.

It should be noted that as Lingxiao Zhenren's personal disciples, they only receive 15 high-grade spirit stones per month from the sect.

As the sect leader's daughter, Shen Sangruo, with Shen Daochen's subsidies, would certainly not lack spirit stones.

But we can't spend money like this.

"Either we make Chen Sangruo return the spirit stones, or we report this to the sect and have them punish her!"

The Flying Cloud Sect has clear rules that one must not bully others, and even less must one engage in petty theft or other despicable acts.

If discovered, the perpetrators will be severely punished!

Not to mention that this has affected so many people and involved a huge sum of money.

"Yes! That's right! Even major sects shouldn't bully people like this!"

"With such character, she's still the daughter of Sect Master Shen? She's definitely an imposter."

“You are Shen Sangruo’s senior and junior brothers and sisters. If she can’t pay it back, then you will have to pay it back!”

Some people who were emotionally agitated began to insult Shen Sangruo.

The foul language reached Wen Xuan's ears, causing him to frown.

But he suppressed his dissatisfaction and said to the crowd, "Please be quiet."

Luo Chu was always good at observing people's expressions.

Seeing Wen Xuan's expression, she was certain that her second senior brother had already believed it and was quite angry with Chen Sangruo.

He couldn't afford to make a big fuss; the best solution was to have them split the spirit stones they owed.

Let Shen Sangruo get a scolding in private and receive some punishment.

Just as he was about to speak, Wen Xuan said, "You all said that Fifth Junior Sister did those things two months ago, right?"

Everyone echoed in agreement.

"Then it couldn't be Fifth Junior Sister."

"What? It's written clearly on the IOU."

"You're her senior brother, are you trying to make excuses for her?"

Things didn't go as he expected, and Luo Chu became anxious.

Has Second Senior Brother changed his ways? In the past, when Wen Xuan heard about this kind of thing, he was always the first to scold Shen Sangri.

"Yes, Second Senior Brother, what are you saying? The evidence is conclusive; it was Fifth Junior Sister who did it."

"Moreover, Fifth Junior Sister has a long history of misdeeds and has done many similar things before, and you..."

Wen Xuan's gaze was piercing, and Luo Chu immediately fell silent.

That look sent a chill down his spine.

The second senior brother figured it out? That shouldn't be possible!

Fortunately, Wen Xuan quickly looked away.

"Please calm down, everyone. Three months ago, our fifth junior sister was seriously injured and fell into a coma. She has been recuperating since then."

Lu Shiqing scoffed, "Although Shen Sanruo may have acted improperly, she wouldn't be so utterly lacking in manners. Are you trying to slander her?"

Wen Xuan continued, "The sect leader and my master can both testify to this, so it's impossible that she did what you're saying."

Upon hearing Wen Xuan's words, Luo Chu stood frozen in place, as if struck by lightning.

They finally realized why, even with all the "evidence" laid out before them, they no longer believed it.

Oh no! He's doomed! He's definitely finished!

Why did Shen Sangri get injured three months ago of all?

His plan has gone terribly wrong!

"When that 'Chen Sangruo' gave you the IOU, did you see his face clearly?" Feng Heyun asked.

"This..." The group pondered for a moment.

"It seems we didn't see his face. The man was dressed in black and wore a mask. He said he was Shen Sangruo."

"They even showed us the Flying Cloud Sect disciple tokens."

“If there’s nothing else to prove Fifth Senior Sister’s identity, then this is a misunderstanding,” Bai Mumu said casually. “I knew Fifth Senior Sister couldn’t be that kind of person.”

After her reminder, someone quickly remembered, "Oh right, that person also showed me the jade pendant of Lingxiao Zhenren's disciple. I drew it. Take a look, is it like this?"

The man took out a piece of paper, on which was a picture of the jade pendant, a direct disciple of Master Lingxiao.

"Yes, yes, we've seen this too."

So many people have seen him; that person is indeed Lingxiao Zhenren's disciple.

That left only Luo Chu, who was running around outside, and given his unusual behavior earlier, it was clear that he was being misled.

Wen Xuan and the others all turned their gazes to Luo Chu.

"Why are you all looking at me? I didn't do it."

Luo Chu panicked, but stubbornly refused to admit it.

What's wrong with you, junior sister? Do you want him to die even faster?

Bai Mumu knew that Luo Chu would bring out his personal disciple token as proof when he proved that he was "Chen Sangruo".

Luo Chu often secretly took her down the mountain, and whenever they got into trouble, Shen Sangruo would always take the blame.

He looked at Bai Mumu, who gave him a look.

Despite the panic, Luo Chu still managed to understand the meaning in Bai Mumu's eyes.

"You all don't believe me, right? Then let's go find Chen Sangruo and confront her!"

Once Shen Sangruo admits it herself, everything will be resolved.
