Chapter 219: The Anchor of the Soul

Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators

Dream-Making Expert

Huo Yunzi has been confirmed a traitor.

Just eight short words, yet they struck like a thunderbolt.

In an instant, Patriarch Chen Kong and Gushe were stunned.

Lin Qi, who had been silently refining the meteorite fragments, couldn't help but open his eyes, looking in disbelief toward Yuyao, who had descended in a manifestation.

Yuyao, however, showed no intention of explaining further.

She merely said lightly.

"It will take some time to refine the Soul-Calming Bell for you."

"Once it is done."

"I will have Gushe deliver it."

With that, Yuyao beckoned to Gushe.

Signaling Gushe to leave with her.

Gushe complied readily and hurried to follow.

Lin Qi, without a shred of hesitation, chased after them.

He wanted to ask clearly about Huo Yunzi's defection.

Patriarch Chen Kong was also very curious.

But he didn't dare move.

Seeing Lin Qi catch up, Yuyao — who had originally been unwilling to tell Lin Qi too much — thought it over, and still stopped.

She raised a hand and pointed. A jade terrace rose from nothing, a world unto itself, swaying with moonlight.

"Gushe, keep watch outside."

After giving the instruction, Yuyao sat cross-legged atop the jade terrace. Once Lin Qi stepped inside.

Beneath the moon on the jade terrace, the two faced each other.

Lin Qi wasted no pleasantries, asking directly, "Why would Huo Yunzi defect? And where has he defected to?"

"The place he defected to cannot yet be confirmed."

"But it should be that universe where an Ancient God still exists."

"As for why he defected."

Yuyao was silent for a moment, then spoke faintly.

"Lin Qi, a person who could scheme to kill his own flesh and blood — in your eyes, would you call that insane, devoid of all humanity?"

"Yes!"

Lin Qi nodded without a shred of hesitation.

To be a parent and yet scheme to kill one's own son — naturally that was insane, devoid of all humanity.

Then Lin Qi grasped the situation, and cried out in shock.

"The one who schemed to make me kill Wufa and Wutian was Huo Yunzi?!"

"Could it be that something was mistaken?"

Though Huo Yunzi's defection was good news for Lin Qi.

But the matter of Huo Yunzi personally scheming to kill his own son.

Lin Qi truly found it somewhat hard to accept.

After all, even a vicious tiger does not eat its cubs.

"I also wish it were a mistake."

"But Senior Brother Yuan has already captured the person who saved you back then."

"A direct disciple of Huo Yunzi."

"He has already confessed everything."

Yuyao sighed softly.

And told Lin Qi the whole sequence of events.

Many details could not be confirmed as true, since Huo Yunzi's whereabouts had not yet been found.

But the rough outline was already very
