The moment the applause rang out, a shadow slowly appeared from the back of the hall.
Soul Slayer appeared before the Spirit Lord's shocked gaze, to stand beside Wu Jiu.
"Soul Slayer?" Flame Dragon's eyes widened slightly, staring in disbelief at Soul Slayer standing beside Wu Jiu.
"In the Spirit World, there are not only stubborn and thickheaded fools like you all. There are still some outstanding talents who know how to adapt to circumstances." Wu Jiu said with a sneer.
Flame Dragon's heart wrenched. It could not understand why Soul Slayer would stand by Wu Jiu's side. Could it be that Soul Slayer had not heard what had been said just now?
"Soul Slayer! Wu Jiu harbored malicious intentions and imprisoned the Spirit Lord. The one sitting upon the throne now is not the Spirit Lord that we have sworn our loyalty to! This is the Spirit Lord, why did you … "
"Yan Long, don't say anymore." Poison Ivy's eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He did not seem to be surprised by all of this.
"Why?" Yan Long didn't understand.
"Yan Long, you're still so stupid. Do you really think that some bullsh * t Spirit Lord is worth the loyalty of all souls? Don't joke around. In the face of benefits, there is no such thing as true loyalty. "Wu Jiu sneered.
Flame Dragon looked at Wu Jiu and then looked at Soul Slayer, still unwilling to believe all of this.
"Soul Slayer, what … are you thinking? It was the Spirit Lord who created the Spirit World and gave us a place to live, to save us from the fate of becoming wandering wandering spirits. You know very well that Wu Jiu and that imposter have malicious intentions, so why do you still stand on their side!? Soul Slayer! Answer me! "
The Flame Dragon's loyalty made it unable to accept Soul Slayer's betrayal.
Even though Flame Dragon was not all that familiar with Soul Slayer, even though Soul Slayer had fought fiercely for the fourth Serene Spirit Tower back then, even though Soul Slayer had chosen to stand on Wu Jiu's side during the capture of the Spiritual Bear, but from Flame Dragon's point of view, although Soul Slayer's choice had been a little immoral, but that was because Soul Slayer cared more about the might of the Weapon Spirit. It might have been bewitched by Wu Jiu, but when it came to loyalty to the Spirit Lord, how could it possibly choose to be a traitor?
Betraying the Spirit Lord who had given it everything?
Why?
Wu Jiu swept his gaze over to look at Soul Slayer and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, seemingly intending for it to answer Flame Dragon's question.
After a long silence, Soul Slayer's voice rang out in the hall.
"Isn't there a saying among humans that humans die in pursuit of wealth just as birds die in pursuit of food? I'm very grateful to the Spirit Lord for what he did in the past, allowing us to have a place to live. But as the saying goes, water flows to the bottom. Flame Dragon, I don't think there's anything wrong with my choice. What Wu Jiu promised me was something that the Spirit Lord was unable to give me. Am I wrong in choosing my own wish? "
"Soul Slayer!" Fiery Dragon's eyes were filled with shock. He couldn't believe that such heartless words came from Soul Slayer's mouth.
Wu Jiu nodded his head in satisfaction and turned to look at Jun Xie and the others to say: "What is wrong with Soul Slayer's methods? I promise, that as long as it helps us build the four Serene Spirit Towers, we will not only bestow it with greater power in the future, we will also help it regain a new body, and it will no longer need to live as a spirit. "
A new body …
This was something that countless souls yearned for. Although it was good to have a powerful soul, it was not as tempting as having one's own body and truly living in this world.
Wu Jiu had used this fatal temptation to make Soul Slayer resolute in his decision to defect.
