    The instant that p of his hands sounded, a shadow appeared slowly from the back of the grand hall.


    Soul yer came out from under the Spirit Lord’s shocked gaze, toe stand beside Wu Jiu.


    “Soul yer?” me Dragon’s eyes widened, as he stared in disbelief at the figure of Soul yer standing beside Wu Jiu.


    “The Spirit World does not only consist of stubborn and obstinate fools like you. There are also outstanding talents who know what’s good for them.” Wu Jiu said with a sneeringugh.


    Wincing pain spread through me Dragon’s heart. It could not understand why Soul yer would want to stand on Wu Jiu’s side. Didn’t Soul yer hear everything that had just been said?


    “Soul yer! Wu Jiu harboured such evil intentions and held the Spirit Lord captive. The one sitting up there upon the throne now is not the Spirit Lord that all of us have pledged allegiance to! Our Spirit Lord is the one standing here, how could you.....”


    “me Dragon, there’s no need to continue.” Poison Ivy’s brows were knitted together. Towards all this, he did not seem to be surprised.


    “Why?” me Dragon’s face was filled with iprehension.


    “You’re still being such a fool me Dragon. Do you really think that just because he’s some useless Spirit Lord and he is worth having all spirits bodies pleading their loyalty to him? Stop pulling my leg. With one’s self interest before them, real loyalty does not exist at all.” Wu Jiu continued to sneer.


    me Dragon stared at Wu Jiu, and then turned to stare at Soul yer, still unable to believe all of that.


    “Soul yer, just what..... are you thinking? It’s the Spirit Lord who created the Spirit World and that gave all of us a ce to live in, allowing us to escape the fate of living as homeless wandering spirits. You clearly know that Wu Jiu and that imposter have evil intentions, so why would you go stand on their side! ? Soul yer! Answer me!”


    me Dragon’s sense of loyalty caused it to be unable to ept Soul yer’s betrayal.


    me Dragon was not on too familiar terms with Soul yer, hence, when Soul yer had fought aggressively during the struggle for fourth Serene Spirit Tower, and when Soul yer had chosen to stand on Wu Jiu’s side when they were trying to capture the Spiritual Bear, though Soul yer’s choices were showing ack of righteousness and justice, me Dragon could still see it as Soul yer caring more about the strengthening the might of the Weapon Spirits and Soul yer might have been bewitched by Wu Jiu. But when it came to loyalty to the Spirit Lord, how could it choose to be a traitor?


    To betray the Spirit Lord who gave them everything here?


    Why?


    Wu Jiu nced at Soul yer, the corners of his mouth curling up with a smile, seeming like he wanted Soul yer to answer me Dragon’s question.


    Soul yer was silent for a rather long while before its voice then rang out within the grand hall.


    “Don’t the humans have a saying that people are willing to die for riches and birds die for food? I am very grateful to the Spirit Lord for what he has done, that allowed all of us to have a ce to live in. But a person will climb up to greater heights while water flows down into lower depths. me Dragon, I do not think there is anything wrong with the choice I made. What Wu Jiu promised to me, is what the Spirit Lord is unable to give. So what is wrong with choosing as per my wish?”


    “Soul yer!” me Dragon’s eyes were filled with shock, unable to believe that it had just heard such callous and unfeeling wordsing out from Soul yer’s mouth.


    Wu Jiu nodded his head in satisfaction and turned to say to Jun Wu Xie and the others: “Is there anything wrong with what Soul yer has chosen to do? I promised Soul yer that if they help usplete the construction of the fourth Serene Spirit Tower, not only will we give to them more powerful might, we will give them back their original bodies, where they no longer need to live as spirits.”


    New bodies.....


    That was something that so many spirits could only dream of. Although mighty power of the spirit was great, it could not beat having one’s own body, where the allure of being able to live in the world was just irresistible.


    And Wu Jiu was using just that most enticing temptation to reinforce Soul yer’s determination in his betrayal.
