Treatment Like Night and Day
"Haha, they're all still in the clan. Palace Master Lin Xiao, if you wish, you can go see them anytime after I take you to see the clan leader!"
Lei Ji said without hesitation.
"Alright, then I'll probably have to trouble Elder Lei Ji again."
"Palace Master Lin Xiao, you're too kind. It's only right."
Afterwards, Xiao Lin inquired about their recent situation from Lei Ji.
However, the specifics will have to wait until Xiao Lin goes to see them himself.
With Lei Ji, Dou Sheng Elder of the Lei Clan, leading the way, the two of them naturally had no obstacles along the way.
Even when they occasionally encountered a few Lei Clan Elders whose strength was even greater than Lei Ji's, they did not stop them because of Xiao Lin's identity.
Well, by now, Xiao Lin's influence is more useful than that of Lei Ji, the Elder of the Lei Clan.
Of course, because they encountered many Leadership Elders of the Lei Clan along the way, although Lei Ji was supposed to continue leading Xiao Lin to see Lei Ying, the others had actually gone ahead to inform them.
In the end, it naturally turned into Lei Ying personally coming to see Xiao Lin!
"Palace Master Lin Xiao!"
Upon learning of Xiao Lin's visit, Lei Ying immediately dropped what she was doing and rushed out.
"Clan Chief Lei Ying!"
Upon seeing Lei Ying, Xiao Lin smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful greeting.
Lei Ying was clearly somewhat surprised by Xiao Lin's sudden visit.
This was evident from the undisguised surprise on his face.
After all, Lei Ying, like the other patriarchs of the Emperor Clans, thought that Xiao Lin was still recuperating in his own sect.
It's important to understand that less than a year has passed since the Hun Clan attacked the Stone Clan.
He had seen firsthand how serious Xiao Lin's injuries were.
But what is it that he sees right now?
Xiao Lin doesn't look injured at all!
To be honest, Lei Ying really found it hard to imagine how Xiao Lin had recovered from such a serious injury in less than a year.
In modern terms, this is nothing short of a medical miracle!
However, despite her many doubts, Lei Ying greeted Xiao Lin and led him into the reception room.
Then, the two sides took their seats as host and guest respectively.
"Palace Master Lin Xiao, your injury..."
The two had barely sat down when Lei Ying, unable to contain her curiosity, asked the question.
"Hehe, I've naturally recovered, otherwise I wouldn't have come to visit the Lei Clan today."
When Lei Ying asked, Xiao Lin smiled and replied.
It is now quite obvious that his injuries have fully healed.
"Palace Master Lin Xiao is indeed exceptionally powerful; he is truly admirable!"
This wasn't Lei Ying's flattery; it was his honest opinion.
Back in the Stone Clan, after Xiao Lin returned ahead of her under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, Lei Ying naturally learned of Xiao Lin's formidable combat prowess from the Stone Clan Chief, Shi Xiao.
Even before Xiao Lin broke through to the Nine-Star Dou Saint, Lei Ying considered himself inferior to Xiao Lin.
Now, less than a year later, when they meet again, in Lei Ying's eyes, Xiao Lin has not only recovered from his injuries, but the aura he exudes has also become even more unfathomable.
He even felt a slight resemblance to how he felt when facing Gu Yuan and the Hun Tiandi when he was with Xiao Lin...
"I'm so grateful to Clan Chief Lei Ying for sending me a large quantity of Medicinal Pills!"
Xiao Lin then expressed his gratitude.
Of course, this was just Xiao Lin's flattery.
His injuries healed so quickly, which had nothing to do with the Lei Clan.
However, just as Lei Ying said to Xiao Lin back in the Stone Realm.
Two days after Xiao Lin left under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, Lei Ying sent his clansmen to deliver a pile of high-grade Medicinal Pills.
Among them were even several Grade Ninth-Grade Treasure Pills!
This clearly demonstrates Lei Clan's sincerity.
Xiao Lin always remembered the kindness others had shown him.
Therefore, this time, it was his turn to repay the debt of gratitude.
"Palace Master Lin Xiao, you're too kind. How could I not know such a thing? Those Medicinal Pills wouldn't have been of much use for your injuries. Your rapid recovery is entirely due to your own abilities!"
Perhaps because he cultivates Lightning Attribute Dou Qi, Lei Ying speaks rather bluntly.
Therefore, he himself didn't feel embarrassed at all at this moment and pointed it out.
If it's helpful, it's helpful; if it's not helpful, it's not helpful. He won't take credit for himself.
"No, Clan Chief Lei Ying, it's not just this time. Over the years, the Lei Clan and the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace have given me so much help. I truly feel unworthy of it!"
So, it's my turn to do something for the Lei Clan this time.
Xiao Lin spoke with a serious expression.
As Xiao Lin finished speaking, Lei Ying only realized at this moment that Xiao Lin had come to the Lei Clan to repay a debt of gratitude!
This made Lei Ying's expression quite complicated for a moment.
It should be noted that it was Mang Tianchi who initially proposed investing in Xiao Lin.
After assessing Xiao Lin, the Lei Clan Leadership did not object.
After all, this so-called investment is nothing more than a drop in the ocean for the Lei Clan.
If they can truly invest in a future for the Lei Clan, then the Lei Clan will have profited.
Even if there are no results, the Lei Clan doesn't care about the mere drop in the ocean of loss.
It can be said that similar investments made by the Lei Clan in Xiao Lin's case have been made by various Great Emperor clans over the years.
For example, Old Man Shennong, received investment from the Yao Clan.
Therefore, while there may not be many such investments among the various Great Emperor clans, there are certainly no small number.
However, it is rare for such an investment to produce someone who surpasses the head of the family!
Therefore, the Lei Clan is absolutely unwilling to sever its relationship with Xiao Lin.
And now, it seems they're about to begin receiving some of Lin Xiao's gratitude!
"Palace Master Lin Xiao, we are friends, and the Lei Clan and the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace are absolute allies. You don't need to mention such things again!"
However, Lei Ying still had to say a few polite words at this moment.
Xiao Lin, however, wouldn't take such words seriously.
He will definitely repay the debt of gratitude he owes!
"Clan Chief Lei Ying, have you ever heard of the Void Lightning Pool?"
Ignoring Lei Ying's previous words, Xiao Lin asked a question on his own.
"The Void Lightning Pool? About two years ago, when Mang Tianchi returned, he seemed to have reported on this matter. However, I heard that the Void Lightning Pool was controlled by the Ancient Void Dragon Clan. Palace Master Lin Xiao, why did you suddenly bring this up?"
Xiao Lin's change of topic and what he said surprised Lei Ying at first, and then she asked in confusion.
To be honest, after hearing Mang Tianchi's report about the Void Lightning Pool, Lei Ying was extremely tempted.
He had no doubt that the Void Lightning Pool was absolutely comparable to, or even surpassed, their Lei Clan's Demon Lightning Pool.
Unfortunately, that place was controlled by the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.
The Ancient Void Dragon Clan, after Zhukun's return, is not one that the Lei Clan can afford to offend.
Therefore, even if the Void Lightning Pool was of great use to his Lei Clan, he dared not take any action!
This is probably not a good thing; Zhukun is about to come and block the gates of his Thunder Realm!
Between personal gain and one's life, everyone knows how to choose, right?
Therefore, regarding the files about the Void Lightning Pool reported by Mang Tianchi, the Lei Clan could only choose to keep them sealed away.
Only now, upon hearing Xiao Lin suddenly mention the Void Lightning Pool, did Lei Ying reveal an expression of confusion and helplessness.
