Zhao Tai was also completely astonished.
How is that possible!
How could that person be himself?
And where did this Recording Image Sphere come from? He only gave one to Hu Guang; no one else received it.
"President Zhao, what explanation do you have for this?"
A disdainful laugh rang out, and a person suddenly appeared beside Xu Zhen; it was Su Hua.
Compared to before, Su Hua has now fully adapted to the True Immortal Cultivation Level. Moreover, given that he possesses Immortal Body, the aura he releases is extremely terrifying, causing people to feel uneasy.
Immortal Body are extremely rare even in the Immortal Realm, possessing the ability to kill enemies across realms.
Although Su Hua only has the Cultivation Level the True Immortal Early Stage, his actual combat strength is definitely comparable to that of Half-step Profound Immortal. If he can stabilize his cultivation for a while longer, defeating a weaker Profound Immortal will not be difficult.
Everyone sensed Su Hua's presence, and their eyes narrowed.
At this time.
Before Zhao Tai could speak, Sun Qiliang pointed at Su Hua and shouted angrily:
"You Certain have tampered with this Recording Image Sphere, which is why the people in the footage are acting strangely."
"Heh, rigging things? I think it's you guys who're the ones doing the rigging!"
Su Hua sneered, then continued, "I merely repaired the Recording Image Sphere; you... are the ones who truly tampered with it."
"And aren't you all curious about where I got this Recording Image Sphere?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tai's expression changed drastically, and he immediately looked at Hu Guang.
Now.
Hu Guang was no longer the manic man he had been; he wore a smile, like a kind uncle.
"President Zhao, was my acting alright?"
"To use such methods to frame someone, President Zhao seems quite savvy. He must have done this kind of thing quite often, right?"
Although he spoke in a gentle and polite manner, the coldness in his eyes was undisguised, as if he wanted to tear Zhao Tai to pieces.
His wife's affair was a lifelong pain for him, and now that it was being brought up again, how could he not be angry?
Zhao Tai's eyes widened as he stared at Hu Guang in disbelief. How could he not be controlled by his Heart-Eating Gu?
The Heart-Eating Gu was given by the Third Elder. No one below the True Immortal Late Stage could possibly resist it. How could a Heavenly Immortal Late Stage possibly escape the control of the Heart-Eating Gu?
Ah?
Everyone in Fengyu City was dumbfounded.
What's going on?
What, is it starting to reverse?
The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Even Xu Zhen, who was involved in the situation, was completely bewildered. He looked at Hu Guang, then at Su Hua, his eyes full of doubt.
What on earth is going on?!
Didn't Hu Guang betray him? Why is it all an act now?
Su Hua's expression was disdainful. He said with a faint smile, "If I'm not mistaken, President Zhao must have used the Spirit Devouring Sect's Heart-Eating Gu on Hu Guang, right?"
"I never imagined that President Zhao was actually a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect. You've kept it well hidden. I just wonder, is President Zhao the only one from the Three Great Merchant Associations who is a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect, or are all three of you?"
His Immortal Body is the Blazing Sun Immortal Body, ranked Ninety-Fifth, belonging to Extreme Yang.
The Heart-Eating Gu, on the other hand, is a Yin Attribute substance, and Su Hua has a very strong affinity for it.
During a chance encounter with Hu Guang, he discovered that the other man had been afflicted with a Gu poison, so he immediately cured him.
The Heart-Eating Gu controls and completely replaces the body, so Hu Guang knew what had happened.
After learning about Zhao Tai's plan from Hu Guang, Su Hua took a series of countermeasures.
Don't you like to stand on the moral high ground?
Now that the roles are reversed, let's see what you do.
The leaders of the Three Great Merchant Associations, who were originally planning to withdraw, decided to give up helping Treasure Pavilion after much deliberation upon seeing this situation.
The situation was too delicate, somewhat beyond their control.
Taking Sides with the Treasure Pavilion at this point is far too risky.
Su Hua looked at Zhao Tai, whose face was ashen, and said with a light laugh, "What's wrong, President Zhao? Don't you have anything to say? You've shot yourself in the foot; isn't that a bit unpleasant?"
In Fengyu City, only Su Hua's mocking voice remained.
Those who were initially confused gradually came to their senses.
"How did the situation take a turn? At first, President Zhao said that Xu Zhen was a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect, and he even produced evidence, saying that this evidence was given to him by Hu Guang."
"And now Su Hua says that Hu Guang was poisoned by Zhao Tai's Heart-Eating Gu, and that Hu Guang has indeed recovered. So... could Zhao Tai actually be a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect?"
Someone analyzed the situation with a serious expression.
But no one else participated in the discussion; they simply looked up at the sky with serious expressions.
Things had developed to this point, making it impossible for them to see the situation clearly. They couldn't even tell who was telling the truth.
Zhao Tai said that Xu Zhen was a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect. Although he presented evidence, Hu Guang is now in trouble, so his evidence is not entirely conclusive.
As for Su Hua's side, the Heart-Eating Gu is a treasure of the Spirit Devouring Sect; how could they possibly undo it with their Cultivation Level?
Therefore, both sides' statements are problematic.
Zhao Tai took a deep breath to calm his emotions, then looked at Su Hua with utter indifference, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He never imagined that Su Hua would ultimately ruin everything.
He even turned the tables on me.
Zhao Tai continued coldly, "The Demonic Path is the Demonic Path. A few words and you've cleared yourself of all suspicion. You say I control Hu Guang, but I think it's you who controls him!"
"Judging from your methods, you must have used the Heart-Eating Gu. Originally, I needed to investigate whether you were a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect, but now it seems I don't need to."
"Gentlemen, let's begin!"
"Today we will rid the people of this scourge."
Things have developed to this point, and there's no longer any need to engage in moral warfare.
Continuing to develop in this way will only be more detrimental to him.
Under normal circumstances, this matter should be absolutely foolproof. The Heart-Eating Gu requires at least True Immortal Late Stage to cure, Treasure Pavilion does not have a cultivator of that level.
But things have turned out differently than he expected; the Heart-Eating Gu has actually been neutralized.
Therefore, Zhao Tai must destroy Treasure Pavilion as soon as possible. Once they are dead, the true situation will be entirely up to him.
He claims the Treasure Pavilion is all of the Demonic Path; who can provide evidence to refute that?
Who would dare?
Wu Mu and the others also realized that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction, so after hearing Zhao Tai's words, terrifying auras were released from their bodies.
On the side of the Three Great Merchant Associations, the oppressive aura of the Six Paths True Immortal made the entire Fengyu City feel suffocated.
A great war is about to break out!
Many people, no longer interested in gossiping, quickly moved away.
A battle between True Immortal is a sure way to die if you get caught up in it, especially since this isn't just one True Immortal, but a battle between eight True Immortal.
"Although I don't know who the Demonic Path is, that's not important. All I know is that something bad might happen to this Treasure Pavilion."
"The Three Great Merchant Associations have six True Immortal experts, while the Treasure Pavilion only has True Immortal. Judging from the situation, the other Trade Association don't seem willing to help either. With just two True Immortal, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand the attack."
"That's normal. I would also choose to stay away. If we blindly support Treasure Pavilion now, what if he really is a member of the Spirit Devouring Sect? Then we'll be on a sinking ship. Besides, I think President Zhao is quite confident, so he probably still has some Trump Cards up his sleeve."
Secretly, many powerful figures were discussing the matter.
But many people couldn't help but shake their heads, guessing that Treasure Pavilion would probably be wiped out next.
Su Hua looked at the six powerful figures, Battle Intent flashing in his eyes. He twisted his neck, and his body began to turn red.
An extremely oppressive aura Mi Man from his body.
"After all that rambling, I've been wanting to beat you all to a pulp for ages."
