Xiong, seeing if he noticed the Everlasting Stone.
After seeing that nothing was amiss, he let out a sigh of relief.

Su Li Xiong remained calm as his eyes stared deeply into Su Yun.
After a moment, he spoke, “Is this what really happened?”

“Yes!” Su Yun’s complexion did not change.

Su Li Xiong became silent.
Both sides were focused on each other’s expression, so there were no openings.

“Then….” At this time, Su Li Xiong once again asked, “For Immortal Sword Sect’s Elder Long Xian Li, she claimed that you had stolen some type of artifact from Immortal Sword Sect? I want to know, just what did you steal from them?”

“Immortal Sword Sect claimed I stole from them?” Su Yun’s pupils shrunk as he had a flash of nervousness.

Obviously, Long Xian Li did really discover about him and the Heavenly Crystal.
Presumably, the reason why she had left the Su Family’s grounds were since she heard that he had been sent to a trial in Martial Bone Mountain.

However, Long Xian Li did not inform that the artifact was the Heavenly Crystal to the Su Family.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to leave with the Heavenly Crystal.

Since that was the case, she wanted to let the Su Family find the truth of the matter, since she was not confident that he had truly died in Martial Bone Mountain.
Therefore, when the Su Family did question Su Yun about the events that occurred, even if it was difficult to hide the Heavenly Crystal, it would not be impossible.

After he finished analyzing, Su Yun took a deep breath.
He had chosen to gamble.

He did not know whether his analysis was correct, but based on the current situation, it was the most likely scenario!

Immediately, his face suddenly changed as he answered, “Oh….this matter was just a misunderstanding! This matter was really just a misunderstanding!”

“When I had left Su Family’s grounds, I went to Mirror Lake Town to purchase something.
Elder Long Xian Li was also there.
She was completing some tasks for the Immortal Sword Sect.
Su Yun was fortunate enough to have a conversation with Elder Long Xian Li.
However, that day, she had lost her purse, which I think that she had thought that I took it in the end.
I was really wronged! Seniors, based on my cultivation, would I truly dare to provoke Immortal Sword Sect on purpose? I thought that Elder Long Xian Li looked like an angel, so I could not help but take some extra glances.
I just really did not expect there was such a misunderstanding, the injustice….” After he finished, Su Yun sighed.

“Was it that simple?” Su Li Xiong asked.

“Su Yun guarantees that every word is true.
You seniors should know, would I really have enough courage to dare provoke a tiger within the Immortal Sword Sect?” Su Yun calmly responded.

“Yeah! Just by relying on your cultivation, Elder Long Xian Li could kill you easily!” The nearby Elder Su Shi Long harrumphed.

“Outer Sect’s trash would definitely not have this much courage, right?” Another one said.

Su Yun did not say another word.

Su Li Xiong did not make a comment as he lowered his head in thought.

The whole atmosphere in the hall became somewhat weird, since the entire meeting hall was completely quiet.

Su Yun did not dare make any nervous movements, so both of his hands from time to time would just straighten the bottom of his clothe.
If he remained perfectly motionless, it would quickly make some people suspect him.
However, if there was too much fidgeting, then he could also be suspected of having a guilty conscience.

Fortunately, his current actions were just perfect.

Although his persuasion ability was not brilliant, but he was still able to genuinely convince the opposition.
Nonetheless, his reasoning was still only mediocre.

At least….it was reasonable.

“Alright, now I know!”

At this time, Su Li Xiong stared blankly at Su Yun and continued, “You have just come back from Martial Bone Mountain, so I believe you are exhausted.
Go home and have a rest.”

“Understood patriarch, Su Yun will return!” After Su Yun bowed, he quickly withdrew.

After he left, the elders remained sitting there.

Everyone’s expressions were different.

Some of the elders whispered to each other, but were hesitant to speak up.

Finally, Su Li Xiong spoke up first, “Do you think that what this child has said….was true or false?”

“Although it did sound kind of suspicious, but it doesn’t mean that this kind of thing could not happen!” The head lecturer Yi Xin Qiu said from the second seat.
He continued, “Su Family’s Martial Bone Mountain is a forbidden area, but it is part of an entire mountain range.
Even if the enchantment was there, there are still many paths to take that one may leave the Martial Bone Mountain.
I think what Su Yun said was reasonable.
As for the matter dealing with him and Elder Long Xian Li….I think it is also reasonable.
Otherwise, how would he dare be rash against the Immortal Sword Sect with his weak cultivation?”

“Couldn’t have said it better myself! This poor cultivation individual, even if there is ten of him, what would he even amount to?” The nearby Elder Zhang Hao also agreed.

However, the financial minster Su Ming He had a puzzled look on his pair of eyes, “But….this Su Yun truly is very mysterious.
Everyone had the same impression, right? I’m just saying that just a while ago, his cultivation was only about spirit novice sixth stage, right? After observing his aura today, I determined that it was already spirit intermediate stage one!”

“A strength test?” Su Li Xiong suddenly remembered something and turned to face Su Shi Long.
Then he asked, “Su Shi Long, this child is a member of the outer sect of the Su Family, right?”

Su Shi Long quickly got up and nodded, “Honorable patriarch, you are correct!”

“I am just saying, this disciple’s cultivation had stagnated for about eight years, why would he suddenly have such monstrous growth rate now?”

“On this matter, I am not clear….” Su Shi Long just shook his head.

Su li Xiong thought for a moment and whispered, “Let me say this, I think that one of these two people must have deceived us!”

“These two people?” Su Shi Long asked.

“Yes, either Su Yun or Long Xian Li….”

Finally, Su Li Xiong stood up and quietly ordered, “Everyone watch Su Yun and carefully observe his every move.
If there is any action taken, quickly report it to me!”

Then, Su Li Xiong turned around and directly left the meeting hall.

“Understood, patriarch!”

Everyone in the meeting hall quickly got up and saluted.
Meanwhile, at a large tree outside of the meeting hall, a silhouette could be seen if one swept their gaze, but it soon quietly disappeared.
