Chapter 231 Soul Palace
"Little girl, your words are indeed bold. If this is true, then the Yunlan Sect has probably become a tool of the Soul Palace."

Yao Lao did not feel the aura of the Soul Palace in Yunlan Sect, but the Ghost Pass appeared.

One cannot help but doubt and think about Xiao Xue's statement.

"Teacher, it's not that I dare to think about it, don't you think it's strange?"

"What's weird?"

Xiao Xue looked at Xiao Yan as if he was a fool, and suddenly felt that her brother's brain was not working very well.

"Have you ever thought about why the Soul Palace happened to appear above the Ghost-Suppressing Pass?"

Xiao Xue looked at Xiao Yan, who was staring at her with a puzzled look on his face, and continued speaking.

"Moreover, the direction he was chasing was from the Jia Ma Empire, not from other directions. This shows that the Soul Palace has already infiltrated the Jia Ma Empire. However, the only force worthy of the Soul Palace's infiltration is probably the Yun Lan Sect."

To Xiao Yan, Xiao Xue's words were very stiff and not even convincing at all. After all, there was no evidence at all.

More importantly, if the Soul Palace colluded with the Yunlan Sect, then the two times that Yao Lao helped in the Yunlan Sect would have been impossible.

This is also what Xiao Yan is confused about.

But Xiao Xue knew that the Soul Palace was definitely secretly supporting the Yunlan Sect.

"Forget it. You guys don't believe me, Teacher. Please tell us about the Soul Palace."

Xiao Xue could sense what Xiao Yan was thinking at the moment from his expression, so she changed the subject.

Yao Lao coughed lightly, turned around, and spoke after a long while.

"I didn't want to tell you at first, but now that the Soul Palace has taken action, I will tell you some things about the Soul Palace."

Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan listened quietly to Yao Lao's story.

"But are you really ready to know the information about the Soul Palace? You should know that the Soul Palace is not as powerful as the Yunlan Sect. In the eyes of the Soul Palace, the Yunlan Sect is just a third-rate force. Do you still want to know?"

When Yao Lao asked this question, he didn't expect that the brother and sister didn't hesitate at all.

Xiao Yan took over Yao Lao's question and said, "Teacher, now they seem to have found your trace. No matter how powerful he is, you are my teacher. You taught me everything. I am willing to face difficulties with you."

"Yes, my brother is right. You will always be our teacher. If the teacher is in trouble, how can the disciple back down?"

Seeing these two young people treating him like their closest relatives, Yao Lao felt very relieved.

"It seems that I, Yao Chen, have not been blinded for the second time. You are all my good disciples."

It was only then that Xiao Yan learned that his teacher's name was Yao Chen. From this sentence, he also learned that his teacher had had disciples before, and there might be some unknown secrets.

After Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue finished speaking, Yao Lao fell into silence. After a while, two consecutive words, "good", with a very trembling accent, rang in Xiao Yan's heart. Because of his excitement, he said this name that was once famous throughout the Douqi Continent in front of Xiao Yan for the first time!
Xiao Yan and Xiao Xue's words were plain but came from the heart. They made Yao Lao, who had always been calm and composed, almost burst into tears. He had experienced betrayal by the person he trusted the most before. That kind of pain was almost painful to the bone. Fortunately, this time, his eyes, which had miscalculated once, finally did not repeat the same mistake again!
"Yao Chen... Is this the teacher's former name..." While repeating the unfamiliar name in his mind, Xiao Yan's attention was focused on another sentence: "Not blind a second time... That means... the teacher was blind once before."

"Children, I have told you before that the Douqi Continent is very large, and there are many strong people in it. Even Yunshan, who is considered the strongest person in the Jiama Empire, has to curb his arrogance when he comes to the continent, because there are too many people stronger than him here..."

There was a hint of sadness in Yao Lao's slow voice, which attracted Xiao Yan's attention so much that he dared not to be distracted at all. Xiao Xue even listened attentively with her hands behind her back, like a student being trained.

"Because of this vast area, it has also created a lot of strange forces, and among them, there is a mysterious force called "Soul Palace". Although this force is almost spread across almost half of the continent, and only countries like the Jia Ma Empire, which are far away from the center of the continent, have rarely seen their presence, but there are actually not many people on this continent who know of their existence!"

From Yao Lao, I learned that the Soul Palace really doesn't seem to be interested in marginal forces like the Gama Empire, but is more concerned about their influence in the center of the continent.

"Soul Palace?" Xiao Yan muttered the name and whispered, "Teacher noticed their movements at the Ghost Gate before, right?"

"Yes!"

Yao Lao smiled bitterly and nodded, saying: "This "Soul Palace" is extremely powerful and mysterious, and its actions are also very strange. Even I don't know much about them. However, they generally don't attack normal people. Their targets are those "living souls" whose bodies are dead but whose souls are extremely powerful. As a pharmacist, you should also know that when the soul power is strong to a certain limit, even if the body is destroyed, the soul can still survive and look for the opportunity to revive again. For this kind of soul, they call it: "living soul"!"

"You mean teachers?" Xiao Yan pursed his lips and said softly.

"That's why the teacher hid his aura at the Ghost Gate. He knew that the people from the Soul Palace were nearby. I didn't expect that there are forces in this world that specialize in searching for souls. Are they trying to use other people's souls to improve themselves?"

Xiao Xue blurted out her own opinion on what Yao Lao had just said.

"You are right to understand it this way, little girl."

"Hmm." Yao Lao hummed, and then suddenly there was some anger and gloom in his voice.

"They are like the soul scavengers on the continent. Any powerful soul that leaves the body will be sensed by them, and then they will send people to mysteriously kill it. I don't know why they specifically target souls... But they seem to have special means of restraining souls. Not long after my physical body was destroyed, I was surrounded and killed by them. Although I managed to kill them successfully in the end, I was also seriously injured.
If I hadn't gotten some extremely rare "Warming Soul and Absorbing Spirit" by chance when I was refining pills for others, and finally asked someone to refine it into the black ring in your hand, it would have been because of this that I was able to avoid their killing, and the ring would have ended up in your mother's hands after a lot of twists and turns."
