A plump and beautiful woman knelt at Zhao WujI's feet; she was Zhao Song's elder sister, Zhao Yu.
"Zhao Song deserves to die. Even if he doesn't, I will cripple his Martial Soul and expel him from the Cloud Spirit Sect."
Zhao WujI had never held any fondness for Zhao Song. The disciples of the Beast Soul Line following the Alchemy Path disciples as sycophants made Zhao WujI feel embarrassed.
However, he had a different attitude towards Zhao Yu, Zhao Song's elder sister.
Zhao Yu was diligent in her cultivation, and her talent was commendable, making her quite likable.
Seeing Zhao Yu, who was in tears, Zhao WujI let out a slight sigh.
"Am I really going to let my brother die a miserable death?"
"There is Soul Dissolution Powder under his fingernails. Wei Chen is already a cripple. I must personally go apologize to Elder Yunyun about this matter."
Soul Dissolution Powder?
The disciples of the Beast Soul Line retreated like they were avoiding a plague; who didn't know the infamous name of Soul Dissolution Powder?
Zhao Yu buried Zhao Song alone. The woman stood at his grave with a sorrowful expression, saying, "Brother, even if everyone despises you, I will always remember your kindness to me. I will avenge you!"
On the eleventh floor of the Cloud Spirit Tower, where the sect leaders had cultivated and resided.
The current sect leader, Dong Hua, listened solemnly as Elder Enforcer reported the situation. Also present were the Grand Elder of the Cloud Spirit Sect, Dong Sheng, Second Elder Zeng Gong, and Third Elder Qin Tai.
The Sect Leader and the Three Elders were the authority of the Cloud Spirit Sect, their status far surpassing that of the teaching elders. Only Song He from the Alchemy Path had made significant contributions to the Cloud Spirit Sect, holding a position comparable to that of the Grand Elder.
"The Beast Soul Line's disciple used Soul Dissolution Powder, which is a grave taboo. If he dies, he dies; Zhao WujI will certainly have no complaints. But that child from the Flower Soul Lineage..."
Dong Hua displayed a hint of apprehension as he glanced at the other elders.
Grand Elder Dong Sheng leaned back in his chair, eyes closed. Second Elder Zeng Gong was flipping through an ancient text, seemingly oblivious to the report from the Elder Enforcer.
Only Third Elder Qin Tai wore a serious expression and said in a deep voice, "This is a matter of great importance; we should go in person."
"The reappearance of Silent Extinction Finger is a good thing; after all, it is our Cloud Spirit Sect's strongest Soul Technique. However, if that Fellow encounters any problems and Donghua becomes enraged, the entire Cloud Spirit Sect will be thrown into chaos!"
When Dong Hua's name was mentioned, his fingers trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.
The other elders shared his apprehension.
Donghua's reputation was like that of a deity in the eyes of the high-ranking Soul Warriors of Sui Kingdom!
Wei Chen gradually regained consciousness. As he opened his eyes, he was met with the concerned gazes of various beautiful senior sisters, warming his heart.
He felt a sense of belonging to the Flower Soul Lineage.
"Wei Chen, how are you?" Weirou asked with tear-filled eyes and a quivering voice.
"I'm fine; how could I possibly be anything but fine?" Wei Chen quickly took Weirou's hand to comfort her. The other senior sisters saw that Wei Chen was alright and quietly left, leaving space for the Wei siblings.
After a long while, Weirou stopped crying, and Wei Chen smiled as he asked, "Has Zhao Song died?"
"Yes," Weirou frowned, looking somewhat puzzled. "The response from the Elder Enforcer seems strange; they don't appear to have any intention of punishing you. Even from the Beast Soul Line and Elder Zhao's side, there hasn't been any news."
Wei Chen grinned, thinking to himself, "No pursuit of responsibility must be because Zhao Song violated the rules by using Soul Dissolution Powder."
At that moment, Yun Yun and several elders from the Flower Soul Lineage personally arrived at Wei Chen's room.
"Wei Chen, how are you feeling?"
"Reporting to the Elder, I am fine," Wei Chen replied as he stood up to pay his respects, showing no signs of distress.
Yun Yun's expression was troubled as she exchanged glances with Mei Xue and the other Three Elders. They remained silent.
"Elder Yun, is there something wrong?" Weirou asked with concern.
Yun Yun shook her head and sighed, looking at Wei Chen with pity. "Is there anything unusual with your Spirit of Thunder?"
"Thank you for your concern, Elder. My Martial Soul is perfectly intact," Wei Chen said with a smile as he opened his palm, releasing a burst of pure Soul Power.
Yun Yun and the others were ecstatic!
They stared at the Soul Power in Wei Chen's palm as if they were gazing upon the most precious treasure in the world!
"Weren't you affected by Zhao Song's Soul Dissolution Powder? What is going on? Did the Soul Dissolution Powder have no effect on you?" Elder Mei Xue exclaimed in surprise.
“Mei Xue, what are you talking about? It's a good thing that Wei Chen wasn't affected by the Soul Dissolution Powder; why does it sound like a bad thing when you say it?” Elder Yao Xiang feigned anger, while several elders sighed in relief.
Wei Chen was at a loss for words, forcing a bitter smile. “I don’t know what’s going on either. My Spirit of Thunder not only wasn’t dissolved by the Soul Dissolution Powder, but it actually became stronger.”
“Is this what they call a blessing in disguise?” Elder Yun and the others felt genuinely happy for Wei Chen, even though they couldn’t fully grasp the implications.
Weirou then realized that Wei Chen had been poisoned by the Soul Dissolution Powder. Although he was fine now, he still broke into a cold sweat from the lingering fear.
“Elder, Beast Soul Line Elder Zhao has come to pay a visit.” After some greetings, a disciple came to report.
“Zhao WujI? What does he want? To watch the show?” Yun Yun's expression turned cold. “Wei Chen, you rest well. We’ll go demand an explanation!”
Inside the Flower Soul Lineage Council Hall, Zhao WujI sat solemnly.
Seeing Yun Yun and the others arrive, Zhao WujI stood and greeted them before speaking in a deep voice. “Zhao Song used Soul Dissolution Powder on Wei Chen and ruined a promising disciple of your Flower Soul Lineage. He truly deserves punishment. It’s entirely my fault for not managing him properly; I come here to apologize for the consequences.”
Yun Yun ignored Zhao WujI’s apology and said coldly, “We worked hard to recruit an excellent disciple, and now he has become half of a useless Martial Soul—your good disciple, your precious grandson!”
“Half of a useless Martial Soul? So there’s still hope for that disciple’s Martial Soul?”
“Do you really wish for our Flower Soul Lineage disciples to become useless Martial Souls?” Yun Yun looked at Zhao WujI coldly, who appeared embarrassed. “Of course not. Since there is still hope, we will do everything possible to treat him. All costs for pills and medicines will be covered by our Beast Soul Line.”
