The several Quasi-Emperors in the room felt sowhat incredulous.
"Is she really that formidable?"
"The Xuan Race people are so exclusionary; she has no way to start, right?"
"Exactly, their Celestial Pavilion doesn't have the Returning Immortal to recomnd them."
"Don't underestimate her!"
"In the years when Celestial Pavilion grew from nothing, they had competitors who tried to mimic them, but now do you even rember them?"
Blood Sun Demon Emperor said with a hint of self-deprecation: "If we were to divide business into realms, she would be an Immortal Emperor, while the rest of us could at best be Immortal Venerables."
"It's only a matter of ti before she sways the Xuan Race; if not this ti, then next ti."
"Once she succeeds in opening business here, we might as well be done for."
Everyone was incredulous: "Is she truly that skilled?"
"Why else do you think last ti the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall disregarded their status to seize the opportunity against Celestial Pavilion?"
"Apart from Celestial Pavilion's friendship with Jiang Cheng, the larger reason is that we can't defeat her on legitimate business grounds and can only rely on brute force to suppress her."
Once these words were uttered, everyone was compelled to take it seriously.
"Looks like we really need to co up with a way to completely ruin their affairs."
"Indeed, it's best if the Xuan Race people never see them again."
"If we can make the Xuan Race view Celestial Pavilion as an enemy, it would be even better; then we can support them more."
"To achieve this goal, the simplest ans is... to fra them!"
Everyone quickly reached a consensus.
These people had spent the past tens of billions of years in cultivation and strife, making comrce indeed challenging for them.
But when it cos to scheming, they were truly in their elent.
Just the next day, Silver Profound Divine Hall was thrown into chaos.
One of the twelve Silver Profound Divine Trees surrounding the hall inexplicably went missing.
This Silver Profound Divine Tree itself is considered an exotic marvel, but its symbolic significance is even greater.
It's said the ancestor of the Silver Profound Race was born under these twelve trees, gained enlightennt from the fruits, and they represent the twelve divisions of the Silver Profound Race, worshiped for many years as sacred relics embodying the entire race's fortune.
This thing doesn't have any augntation effects; it's just that the Xuan Race people are very devout, and they hold such items in high regard.
Suddenly losing one, how could this stand?
What followed was a frantic search, digging nearly three feet down.
Ultimately, they reached a guest courtyard.
And 'unsurprisingly,' the destroyed Silver Profound Divine Tree was found buried beneath the Celestial Pavilion delegation's courtyard.
"Despicable evil demons!"
"As expected, strangers should never be let in!"
"Kill them!"
"Daring to destroy our race's Divine Tree, they deserve death!"
When Miao Yu and Jiang Han took this inexplicable bla, they were already surrounded by dozens of Emperor Profound Realm experts.
"It wasn't us!"
"We had no knowledge!"
"We have trendous respect for your customs, how could we possibly destroy your Divine Tree."
Mo Feng Quasi-Emperor defended fervently: "Moreover, we haven't even left the courtyard these past days, how could we do such a thing?"
"Evidence is conclusive, how dare you still quibble!"
The leading expert of Emperor Profound Eighth Layer had a face ashen with fury.
"With your Immortal Emperor-level power, sneaking out silently would make it nearly impossible for the others outside to notice, wouldn't it?"
"This is truly infuriating, we've let our guard down!"
"Seize them!"
As they were about to capture them, Jiang Han and Mo Feng naturally wouldn't sit idly by and hurriedly drew their swords.
From afar, Blood Sun Demon Emperor watched the scene unfold, a hint of triumph and mockery in his eyes.
Of course, they were the ones who secretly destroyed that tree.
They were the ones who secretly buried it in Celestial Pavilion's courtyard.
It was a simple framing tactic, yet the simpler it is, often the less likely it is to have any flaws.
Now the real culprits can't be traced.
And once both sides engage in battle, Celestial Pavilion is completely finished.
Forget business; they wouldn't even survive to leave the Profound Realm.
At the critical mont, the lucid and composed Miao Yu held back Jiang Han and Mo Feng.
A voice ca from behind, shouting angrily by a Silver Profound Race person: "What motive? It's naturally due to not dying of the desire to ruin our Profound Realm!"
"Indeed, those Otherworldly Evil Demons didn't do much good back in the day!"
"They must want to ruin our Silver Profound Race's fortune, such heinous intentions deserve condemnation!"
Facing the leader's face steeped in murderous intent, Miao Yu shook her head slightly: "If you even slightly understand the Immortal Realm, you'd know that we don't hold much faith in gods there, we only believe in power."
"Even if I intended to target the Xuan Race, there's no need to do sothing completely aningless from our perspective; I might as well assassinate several Celestial Profound Realm practitioners."
"Moreover, if I managed to destroy one tree, why wouldn't I destroy more?"
"And since I destroyed it, why bury it in my own courtyard? Does such an act have any point except being discovered?"
The lead expert of Emperor Profound Eighth Layer, Yinfeng, originally full of rage, started pondering after hearing her words.
"Your implication is that there's another culprit framing you?"
"Exactly!"
"Then who is the real culprit?"
Miao Yu glanced over at the distant Blood Sun Demon Emperor.
"I don't know who the real culprit is, but they are our enemies."
Blood Sun Demon Emperor and the accompanying Quasi-Emperors nearly staggered upon hearing this.
This woman is terrifying, to turn around the seemingly deadlock situation like this?
While flying over, he shouted loudly.
"This is slander, muddying our na!"
"We are completely unaware, just because we're their enemies, you suspect us; this is utterly absurd!"
"Yinfeng Hall Master, our Holy Star Pavilion has cooperated with you many tis over the years; have we ever done anything against the Xuan Race?"
Yinfeng Hall Master frowned again.
Indeed, the Holy Star Pavilion presented a virtuous image throughout.
Moreover, the Divine Tree was found in Celestial Pavilion's courtyard; there's at least material evidence here.
They can't simply switch suspicion to the 'innocent' Holy Star Pavilion based on re words.
"Do you have proof that it's them?" he asked Miao Yu.
The incident was sudden, and Miao Yu currently had no evidence.
"If you give three days, I will surely find clues…"
Blood Sun Demon Emperor quickly cut her off: "Three days? She just wants to delay, take the chance to escape the Profound Realm! I've dealt with her in the Immortal Realm, this one is the most cunning!"
If it were anyone else, he would be confident in the cleanliness of his act.
But faced with Miao Yu, he couldn't confidently ensure the matter wouldn't be discovered by her.
And his provocative words had a tangible effect.
The already enraged Silver Profound Race people imdiately roared.
"Kill her!"
"Take down Celestial Pavilion!"
"What three days? Don't be lenient to culprits!"
As they pressed in, Jiang Han and Mo Feng had no choice but to keep backing up.
In a rush, Miao Yu resorted to her last straw.
"I'm very familiar with Jiang Cheng!"
