Chapter 1408 - 859

Just as Zhang Yu was busy preparing for various tasks.

Xiao Yunhe was also silently observing Zhang Yu’s every move.

And what first caught his attention was naturally the joint venture between Zhang Yu and Su Lingyou.

"Indeed..."

At the first moment of seeing this scene, Xiao Yunhe felt a sinking feeling in his heart, realizing that his previous suspicions were correct.

"Zhang Yu and Su Lingyou have indeed teamed up."

"No, with Zhang Yu being a Level 4 Sect Staff with Divinity Transformation cultivation, he’s probably not qualified to connect with Su Lingyou. Whether it’s rank, realm, or identity... there’s too wide a gap between them."

"Does Zhang Yu’s level count for anything in Wanfa? He’s probably just a mouthpiece."

"It should be the person behind Zhang Yu."

Xiao Yunhe, looking at the information about Zhang Yu that surfaced in front of him, suddenly focused on a few particular pieces.

These were about Bu Yingshu meeting Zhang Yu daily recently, and the recent investments by the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan in the development zone.

"Is it her?"

In his view, only Bu Yingshu, esteemed as she is from the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan, is eligible to connect with Su Lingyou, another member of the Immortal Clan, representing the two major forces to plan the cooperation.

Meanwhile, more earlier information was systematically compiled by Xiao Yunhe.

"And... Zhang Yu had already cozied up to Bu Yingshu before coming to the Old Graveyard. It was probably Bu Yingshu who sent him to the Old Graveyard."

"Plus the support of the Immortal Shuttle... crashing Ying Aikun to death... intimidating Xie Lanyin... Could all these maneuvers have been for today’s setup? To facilitate the current situation? To enable cooperation with the Reincarnation System, assisting Wanfa in infiltrating the Soul Cultivation industry?"

At this moment, Xiao Yunhe’s heart shook: "It’s all connected, all matched up. Bu Yingshu... this woman appears domineering and reckless, but in fact, she is deeply strategic, hiding her true intentions, and has long been setting up for today’s situation."

"What people usually consider impulsive and reckless are just her disguises."

"My real opponent in this game, the true executor of the Wanfa Sect’s intrusion into the Soul Cultivation industry... is not Zhang Yu, but Bu Yingshu, who holds a significant position within the Immortal Clan."

At this moment, the images of Bu Yingshu’s profound wisdom, deep scheming, and hidden ambitions were deeply etched into Xiao Yunhe’s mind, immensely increasing his wariness of her.

While Xiao Yunhe was contemplating, Vice President Xie Lanyin beside him said, "President, what is happening with the Sky Demon Sect? We are here pushing the suppression plan, and yet your sect has turned around to collaborate with Zhang Yu’s side?"

Xiao Yunhe thought for a moment, realizing that given the situation, there was no need to cover up the internal conflicts within the Sky Demon Sect. After all, even if he didn’t speak, the other party would eventually figure it out.

So Xiao Yunhe responded indifferently, "Don’t you see the Dao struggle?"

Xie Lanyin’s eyes moved, and she thought to herself, confirming her suspicions that the internal struggle within the Sky Demon Sect was indeed fierce, already spilling over to the Old Graveyard.

Xiao Yunhe continued, "Now, they have teamed up to set up a joint venture company. Once the technology is exchanged and business runs smoothly, in terms of Soul Cultivation technology, they won’t be very far behind us."

"However..." Xiao Yunhe said, "Even with the technical support, channel construction, and business experience accumulation, all this requires time. They won’t catch up quickly; we still hold the absolute advantage."

"They probably intend to quietly build up their strength, seeking a chance to strike."

Listening to Xiao Yunhe’s words, Xie Lanyin’s gaze flashed, and she suddenly said, "President, why don’t you just strike Zhang Yu down directly?"

Xiao Yunhe understood that the so-called business market is like a battlefield, directly striking the opponent down... This tactic is also known as overwhelming the opponent with strong assets, a quintessential maneuver considered the most straightforward and honorable business strategy.

And this move indeed often has miraculous effects.

But this time, Xiao Yunhe knew this tactic wouldn’t work. He looked at Xie Lanyin and said calmly, "Zhang Yu is just a pawn. Killing Zhang Yu might only lead to someone more formidable being sent next. Can we keep killing them?"

"Or is it that Vice President Xie wants to use this opportunity to seek revenge on Zhang Yu through me?"

Seeing Xie Lanyin deny repeatedly, Xiao Yunhe then continued, "Then we should proceed with further suppression plans."

"I want to nail them down completely before they officially open for business, rendering them helpless, and turn the Soul Cultivation industry into a pitfall everyone avoids."

With Xiao Yunhe’s command, the numerous companies and enterprises under the Ancient Alliance suddenly exerted their strength, and the massive propaganda machine roared into action.

Momentarily, the Spirit Realm was overwhelmed with news about the Old Graveyard, all aimed straight at Zhang Yu and his Soul Cultivation Company.

Experts attacked Zhang Yu’s Lower Realm identity, cultivation duration, accumulation of foundation, and other aspects.

"A poor cultivator like Zhang Yu from the Lower Realm, relying on painstaking self-training to achieve a superficial Immortal Dao cultivation, how can he compare with the solid cultivation that sect experts buy with Immortal Coins one by one?"

"What understanding can he have of the Soul Cultivation industry? I fear the Wanfa Sect might end up at a disadvantage in the Old Graveyard."

Executives from the Soul Cultivation Company pointed out Zhang Yu’s lack of business experience.

"As far as I know, Zhang Yu himself has never truly faced death. Such a record may not enable a profound understanding of Soul Cultivation."
