"Baseless accusations, this is slander!"
Although Bai Zhao was a reincarnation of the Demon Saint, his foundations were weak, and without vested interests, the various Demon Realms might give him some face.
But if interests were involved, nobody would care about any reincarnation of the Demon Saint.
The matter at hand was connected to several Demon Realms and the inheritance from the Supreme Taoist; Bai Zhao was well aware that he absolutely must not shoulder this blame.
"The stone box has been in your hands from start to finish, if you say I secretly swapped the inheritance, you must provide evidence!"
Moreover, I had an agreement with the Ancient Demon Hall long ago, the inheritance of the Supreme Taoist should have had my share—why would I bother to covertly swap it?"
The Withered Wood Demon was not sure if Bai Zhao had tampered with things, but wanted to live in this situation, the only option was to cast the blame on Bai Zhao.
