White Fox! Lei Zhen's Resolute Decision! [Please Keep Reading!]

At this moment.

The peak where Lin Changsheng had just been sitting collapsed entirely, rocks tumbling everywhere as dust billowed into the air, shaking the earth and mountains!

Lin Changsheng hurriedly unleashed his movement technique and retreated far away.

However.

That dazzling, blinding pillar of light continued to flash, shooting into the heavens, visible for ten thousand li around!

The pillar of light flashed for roughly sixty breaths before suddenly dispersing with a thunderous boom!

If not for the collapsed mountain peak, no one would have known that an enormous pillar of light had just pierced the sky!

"I wonder what that pillar of light was?"

Lin Changsheng observed the area for most of the day. Sensing no danger, his eyes flickered.

He felt that the mountain's interior had to be hollow, and after countless years, it had collapsed?

"Forget it. I'd better head back!"

Lin Changsheng muttered, turning to leave.

For the sake of caution, he ultimately chose not to investigate. The unknown meant danger, and he had the panel. Lying low and steadily searching for cultivation techniques to fuse was the right path.

"Hm? A little fox?"

After walking several dozen zhang, Lin Changsheng spotted a cluster of white in a patch of grass. When he approached, he discovered that it was a little fox with pure white fur.

The fox was around two chi long, its fur snow-white without the slightest trace of another color. It looked utterly adorable.

At this moment.

The little fox's eyes were tightly shut, and there was still a streak of blood at the corner of its mouth. It had clearly been injured.

"It's still breathing. It isn't dead!"

Lin Changsheng took out a pair of gloves, stepped forward, and picked up the little fox for a look. Seeing the pink feature beneath its little rear, his gaze flickered as he muttered, "Oh? It's even a female little fox spirit?"

"Could it be a fox spirit deliberately transformed to come drain my vital yang?"

Thinking of all the ghostly and strange tales he had read in his previous life, Lin Changsheng's heart shuddered and a chill ran through his crotch. He hurriedly put the little white fox down.

"Yip, yip, yip! Yip, yip, yip!"

The moment Lin Changsheng put down the little fox, it suddenly opened its eyes, looked at him, and cried out several times.

The little fox was extremely adorable, its eyes as pure as a clear spring.

There was a humanlike fragility and pleading in its tiny gaze.

It even crawled forward and clutched Lin Changsheng's trouser leg, refusing to let go.

"Don't cling to me. Go on, leave!"

Lin Changsheng pried his trouser leg free from the little fox's paws and prepared to leave.

"Yip, yip, yip..."

Yet unexpectedly, blood seeped from the little fox's mouth again. Still, it chased after him and followed behind Lin Changsheng.

"Could the falling rocks have struck its internal organs just now and caused internal injuries?"

"Forget it. It's so pitiful. I'll take it back, raise it for a few days, then let it go!"

With that thought, Lin Changsheng turned around, took off his outer robe, wrapped up the little fox, and used his movement technique to head toward Southern Min City.

Lin Changsheng returned home.

On the way, he bought a cage, cooked beef, and fruit in the city. Tossing them into the room, he sat cross-legged on the bed to meditate. He planned to rest for a few hours before going to the Lei Family that night!

They had tried to kill him. How could he possibly forgive them?

The sky gradually darkened.

Before long, it was once again the hour of the pig.

"It's time to make my move."

Lin Changsheng opened his eyes and muttered.

Then he noticed that the little White Fox had already awakened. It was hugging a snow pear and gnawing on it. When it saw Lin Changsheng looking over, it seemed embarrassed and put down the pear, its clear, huge eyes seeming almost capable of speech.

"Stay home and behave. I'm going out to handle something."

Lin Changsheng glanced at the White Fox, then strapped Dawn and the Iron-Tire Bow onto his back, covered his face with a black cloth, and headed out.

The White Fox watched Lin Changsheng leave, blinked its large eyes, then picked up the pear again.

Southern Min City.

The Lei Family.

It was located in East City.

The Lei Family specialized in firearms, their power incomparably formidable. In the eastern part of the city, they had a workshop spanning several dozen li.

Within a quiet courtyard of the Lei Family, beneath a large jujube tree.

"Second Brother, Third Brother, why haven't they returned yet?"

"Could it have something to do with the pillar of light that appeared at Jade Tablet Mountain today?"

The family head, Lei Zhen, stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He repeatedly glanced at the moonlight and paced back and forth, anxiety written across his face.

His second brother Lei Ming and third brother Lei Bao had taken the Heavenly Thunder Beads to kill the youth Lin Changsheng, whom Steward Yu had instructed them to deal with. By all rights, they should have returned with good news three hours ago.

Yet it was already deep into the hour of the pig, and they still had not returned. His heart was filled with unease.

He had also sent men to investigate the pillar of light that had appeared near Jade Tablet Mountain.

"No need to wait. They're already dead."

Just then, an icy voice rang out.

Following the voice, a black-clad figure appeared three zhang away.

This man in black had a bloated build, his face covered with a black cloth. A long saber and bow were slung across his back, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, while dense killing intent radiated from his body!

"What? Second Brother and Third Brother are dead?"

"You! You're... that person!?"

Hearing the voice, Lei Zhen spun around sharply and staggered several steps back. As he looked at the black-clad figure, his pupils contracted violently.

His second brother was at the peak of the First-Class Realm, and his third brother was in the late First-Class Realm. They had even brought several Heavenly Thunder Beads, yet they had failed to kill this man!

This showed that this man's cultivation was absolutely among the strongest in the First-Class Realm!

"The moment your Lei Family attacked me, your extermination was already destined."

Lin Changsheng looked at the Lei Family head, Lei Zhen, and spoke calmly as the long saber in his hand slowly slid from its sheath.

At the same time.

A powerful aura belonging to a Martial Grandmaster Realm expert swept through all directions!

"What? A Martial Grandmaster!"

"You... you're a Martial Grandmaster!?"

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Lin Changsheng, an aura that pressed down on him until he could barely breathe, Lei Zhen stumbled backward several steps, his face turning pale as paper.

He had never expected it.

The man who had killed his second and third brothers was actually a Martial Grandmaster!

One had to know.

The First-Class Realm and the Martial Grandmaster Realm were as far apart as heaven and earth!

In Southern Fujian Commandery, only the Golden Saber Sect and the Flowing Cloud Sect had Martial Grandmasters. Hundred Herbs Hall also had an old grandmaster with one foot already in the grave!

How could a fourth grandmaster have appeared?

No wonder Steward Yu had told the Lei Family to act. This was plainly an enormous pit!

"Senior, the Lei Family was wrong in this matter!"

"I, Lei, am willing to pay any price. I beg Senior to spare the Lei Family a path to survival!"

Lei Zhen looked at Lin Changsheng, despair rising in his heart. He immediately knelt down. Though he was at the peak of the First-Class Realm, there was no need even to fight against a Martial Grandmaster unless he used a great number of Heavenly Thunder Beads!

But Martial Grandmasters were incredibly fast and difficult to hit!

He could only choose the inferior option: pay a price and preserve the Lei Family!

"Pay a price?"

"Heh. There is no medicine for regret in this world!"

Lin Changsheng looked at Lei Zhen kneeling on the ground and spoke calmly.

If his own strength had been insufficient, he would surely have been blasted to death by Lei Ming and Lei Bao's Heavenly Thunder Beads. In this world, the strong were honored, and strength alone gave one the right to speak!

Spare the Lei Family a path to survival?

If he did not pull out the weeds by the roots, would he not be inviting trouble for himself?

"Senior, this junior was wrong! This junior is willing to hand over all our property and kneel here begging Senior to spare the Lei Family a path to survival!"

"I beg Senior to show mercy!"

Seeing the resolute look in Lin Changsheng's eyes, with not the slightest room for compromise, despair flashed through Lei Zhen's gaze. He shuffled forward on his knees, drawing closer to Lin Changsheng. At the instant he lowered his head, a streak of resolute madness flashed in the depths of his eyes!

He had been prepared to pay a price, but the Martial Grandmaster before him was still determined to exterminate the Lei Family. Therefore, he could only use the six Heavenly Thunder Beads he carried on him, sacrifice himself, and perish together with this Martial Grandmaster in exchange for the survival of the Lei Family's descendants!

Even if he died, the Lei Family's children and grandchildren would remain!

A cold gleam flashed in Lei Zhen's eyes as he slapped the cloth pouch at his waist!
