When the Map Was Exhausted, the Dagger Appeared
Faced with Gan Yue's sarcastic remarks, Kou Chang's expression changed slightly, and she was about to get angry, but then she suddenly thought of Lei Tianyu beside her, and her anger vanished instantly.
She took Lei Tianyu's hand, tilted her head back, revealing her long, snow-white neck, like a proud crane.
"Let me introduce you. This is the eldest son of the Lei Clan, the future head of the Lei Clan, who has already proposed to me."
After saying that, she ignored Gan Yue, who looked surprised and jealous, and turned to Lei Tianyu.
"Brother Tianyu, we still need to see your Lineage elders. We can't let some irrelevant people waste our time."
She pulled Lei Tianyu and walked outside.
As Gan Yue watched the two figures disappear into the distance, the jealousy in her eyes grew even stronger.
The eldest son of the Lei Clan, the future head of the Lei Clan!
It's true that Kou Chang, that bitch, gets all the good things.
"Meet the elders of the Lei Clan? I'd like to see if you really intend to go to the Lei Clan?" Gan Yue muttered under her breath.
Feeling somewhat depressed, Song Wen followed Ai Kun out of the venue.
He didn't bid even once during the entire auction, making him feel like he'd come all for nothing.
Ai Kun, on the other hand, spent several hundred Spirit Stone to bid on a decent talisman brush.
As soon as Song Wen stepped out of the venue, he saw Lei Tianyu and Kou Chang jump onto the spaceship and prepare to leave.
On the tail deck of the spaceship, the Azure Bull, which had swallowed the Thunder-Pattern Stone, lay motionless, its body shimmering with silver light, having entered an advanced hibernation period.
Suddenly, Song Wen remembered the carcass of an unknown Demon Beast with four hooves in the Altar Cave.
He released a Beetle Gu and quietly followed.
"Zhang Cheng, you go back first, I won't go back with you."
Suddenly, Song Wen heard Ai Kun's voice. He turned his head and saw that the old man was heading towards the brothel.
Song Wen shook his head; this old man was bound to die in a brothel sooner or later.
After hesitating for a moment, he turned and walked out of the market. Just now, Black Armor Gu had sent a message that Lei Tianyu and the other person had gone towards the Altar Cave.
Song Wen had a premonition that Lei Tianyu was about to make a move against Azure Bull, and that Song Wen's own inferior talent in Thunder Method would have a chance to improve.
He had been practicing the Palm Thunder on and off for several months, but he could still only summon lightning the size of chopsticks. He was still a long way from the fist-sized Lightning Sphere recorded on the Palm Thunder Cultivation Method Jade Slip.
Lei Tianyu piloted the spaceship, chatting and laughing all the way, and it took him half an hour to reach the lakeside. Meanwhile, Song Wen had already been lying in wait in a cave several miles away for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Seeing the spaceship suddenly slow down and stop by the lake, Kou Chang asked with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Tianyu, why are we stopping here? Aren't we on our way to the Lei Clan to see your uncle?"
My uncle is right here.
It was already past 7 PM, and the sky was dark.
Kou Chang looked around, but could only see darkness all around her.
"Your uncle is the acting head of the prestigious Lei Clan; how could he possibly be in this desolate wilderness?"
Kou Chang initially thought the other party was joking, but when she looked at Lei Tianyu's face, she noticed that his smile was somewhat strange.
Coupled with the fact that they were in the dark, desolate wilderness, Lei Tianyu's smile gave off a sinister and somewhat eerie feeling.
A sense of unease quietly rose in Kou Chang's heart.
She glanced at the stern of the boat, at the sleeping Azure Bull, and her unease intensified.
She suddenly realized that she had always been arrogant because of her beauty, thinking that she could manipulate Lei Tianyu at will, and that Lei Tianyu was like an obedient dog, letting her play with him at will.
In reality, however, the two were vastly different in strength. With Azure Bull as his backer in the past, Lei Tianyu dared not do anything out of line.
At this moment, having lost the powerful Azure Bull, if Lei Tianyu harbors malicious intentions, he is no match for Lei Tianyu at all.
She forced a smile and said.
"Brother Tianyu, you're kidding, let's get out of here quickly."
Lei Tianyu's smile remained unchanged. "I'm not joking. My uncle, Lei Hong, really is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head, looked down at the dark forest, and shouted loudly.
"Uncle, come out quickly, don't keep Fairy Kou waiting."
A figure emerged from the dense forest below, flying out on a sword and stopping beside the spaceship.
The newcomer had a square face, exuded righteousness, and gave people a sense of grandeur and majesty. He was Lei Hong, the acting head of the Lei Clan.
Lei Hong ignored Kou Chang, who was as beautiful as a fairy, and instead focused his gaze on Azure Bull, who was sleeping at the stern of the ship, as if Azure Bull was the beauty that could make fish sink and geese fall from the sky.
"Tsk tsk tsk... Tianyu, your methods for dealing with women are quite impressive. You actually managed to bring Azure Bull here and even put it into hibernation, saving us a lot of trouble."
After a year of planning and self-sacrifice, sacrificing my dignity and bottom line to please others, today is finally the time to reap the rewards.
Lei Tianyu's face was filled with undisguised smugness.
"Uncle, you flatter me. She's nothing but a money-grubbing whore."
Kou Chang's face suddenly turned deathly pale. A deep fear filled her heart, making her feel like she was suffocating, and she could barely speak.
"What... what are you trying to do?"
"I am a direct disciple of the Beast Taming Sect. If you dare to plot against me, the Beast Taming Sect will not let you off."
Lei Tianyu's burning, aggressive gaze lingered on Kou Chang's alluring figure, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"I dared to attack you because I had already planned a countermeasure. Tonight, the spiritual energy I left in the Lineage will automatically dissipate, and outsiders will only think I'm dead. Naturally, no one will suspect me."
"In a few years, I'll change my appearance and be able to continue being the legitimate son of the Lei Clan."
Kou Chang's face immediately turned ashen.
Suddenly!
A terrifying aura emanated from Lei Hong.
This oppressive force made Kou Chang, who was only at the Qi Refining Stage, feel as if she were carrying the weight of ten thousand jin. Unable to withstand this immense pressure, she staggered and knelt directly on the deck.
Lei Tianyu, with his Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivation, was able to barely withstand this pressure, and he asked.
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
Lei Hong's gaze swept across the dark, dense forest below, sharp as lightning, and he spoke.
"Tianyu, you're still too reckless. You were actually followed all the way here without even realizing it."
"What! Someone's following us? How is that possible?" Lei Tianyu exclaimed in shock.
Several miles away in a cave, Song Wen suddenly felt a pang of anxiety, somewhat incredulous: Had Lei Hong discovered the Black Armor Gu hidden in the tree crevices beneath the spaceship?
Sudden.
Lei Hong was seen making Method Formula seals with his hands and then letting out a loud roar.
"Great Cavern Divine Thunder!"
A bolt of lightning ripped through the sky, like a dazzling crack splitting open the night.
"Snap!"
The lightning struck a dense forest three miles away.
It splits trees, tears the earth apart, and instantly releases an unstoppable amount of energy.
A disheveled figure was swept away by the violent gust of wind generated by the energy released by the lightning.
This person was none other than Gan Yue.
She actually followed Lei Tianyu and Kou Chang and crept up to the lakeside.
As the lightning struck, she summoned a Second-Order Mid-Stage spirit beast, a serpent, and at the cost of the serpent's life, she managed to save her own.
Using the powerful impact of the lightning, Gan Yue escaped on her sword and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
"Trying to escape? Not so easy."
Lei Hong rode his sword and gave chase.
We absolutely cannot let Gan Yue escape back alive, otherwise the fact that the Lei Clan devours the spiritual power of others' Thunder Method might be leaked.
At that time, the Lei Clan will face utter annihilation.
It's not that the Beast Taming Sect would act on behalf of Heaven and destroy the Lei Clan; rather, it's that they covet the altar that absorbs the spiritual essence of Thunder Method, aiming to annihilate the Lei Clan and seize it for themselves.
