Fengyunlu

Chapter 672 Chasing and intercepting

"Xiao Fengzi." At this moment, a familiar voice sounded softly, like throwing a small stone into the calm lake, causing ripples.

At the edge of the thunder pond, a proud figure slowly stood up, his dark blue robe fluttering in the wind. Although he looked a little dazed, his aura was undiminished. It was the leader of the Thunderbolt Hall, Lei Gong. He stood there like a towering mountain, making people feel in awe.

"Uncle Lei." Feng Chen turned his head hurriedly and saw Lei Gong. He thought that the disputes in the Lei Chi had been resolved, but there was no sign of Emperor Chunqiu behind Lei Gong. Feng Chen immediately understood that something must have gone wrong below, so Lei Gong jumped out alone. As for his master, Grandpa Luo, he might still be trying to make amends.

"Hall Master." Long Tiexin came back to his senses and knew that since Emperor Chunqiu had not shown up for a long time, there must be trouble. Now that the hall master showed up, he must be here to find a solution.

"Yeah." Lei Gong slowly landed on the ground, and did not rush to do anything else, but first preached to Feng Chen: "You are too stubborn, you will suffer in the future."

Feng Chen nodded after listening. He and Lei Gong had a special relationship, so Feng Chen was willing to listen to what he said. However, he had already made up his mind. No one could persuade him about Bai Yu. So after nodding, he looked up and asked, "Uncle Lei, do you also want me to go back to the South China Sea first?"

Lei Gong shook his head: "No, some things still need to be done, but we need to think clearly about the interests involved."

Feng Chen nodded again. He understood that Lei Gong meant to support him to do what he should do. He just cared about him and advised him not to act on emotion. So he quickly agreed: "Uncle Lei, don't worry. I know the rules of Luoshen Peak. You can't enter without Xuan-level cultivation. After everything is settled, I will go to improve my cultivation first. I will come back in a year or so and then go to Luoshen Peak to find out what's going on."

"Well, it's good that you know how to advance and retreat. Go ahead, go to the Thunder Pool first. Mr. Luo has something to ask you." Lei Gong nodded and pointed, opening up a narrow path that led directly to the bottom of the Thunder Pool.

Fengchen looked around and vaguely saw a slovenly figure, it was his master Luo Hongchen, who seemed to be repairing something in a hurry. Although his movements seemed chaotic, each step revealed a mysterious rhythm, as if he was having a silent dialogue with the power between heaven and earth.

"Okay, I'll go down right away. I just have some questions to ask him." Feng Chen said as he jumped down. With his Thunder Skill clearing the way for him, he didn't have to worry about the Purple Sky Divine Thunder in the Thunder Pool. He went straight to the bottom of the Thunder Pool. His figure was like a meteor across the night sky, fleeting.

This time was different from the previous time. There was no protection from the Immortal Absolute Array. Although he had learned the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Art to strengthen his soul, his cultivation was too weak after all. If he entered rashly, he would only be swallowed by the divine thunder and die. That was why the Thunder Art pointed out a direct path for him. This was not only a recognition of his strength, but also a kind of protection for him.

After a moment, Feng Chen's figure vaguely came to where Luo Hongchen was. Lei Gong nodded and waved his hand. The narrow passage disappeared instantly. People outside the thunder pool could not see inside, and their spiritual thoughts were temporarily isolated. Lei Gong did this to avoid suspicion. He didn't know what Luo Hongchen was going to say to Feng Chen, what was involved, and whether the people at the scene could hear it. But no matter what, it was his decision whether Luo Hongchen let him listen or not, and whether you listen or not was your attitude. The two seem to have the same results, but in fact they are very different. The measure and difference are all in etiquette.

Furthermore, after Lei Gong experienced Lei Xiao's incident, he became more cautious. Although everyone present was there to support him, there was no guarantee that there would be someone who was as patient as Lei Xiao. Lei Gong could not guarantee it, and he could not be sure. After all, Lei Xiao and he had been friends for hundreds of years, and he could not guarantee the safety of these foreign friends. People's hearts are unpredictable, and things are unpredictable. He could only be more cautious to ensure the safety of the Thunderbolt Hall.

"Brother, what's the situation now?" Lei Teng came over and saw Lei Gong staring at Lei Chi with a worried look on his face, thinking that this matter was quite tricky. However, although Lei Teng's worry was not unreasonable, Lei Gong did not directly express his worries.

"Don't worry, Mr. Luo is working hard to fix it." Lei Gong's words sounded ambiguous. He didn't say how difficult it was, nor did he reveal a specific solution. But from his words, one could tell that it was only a matter of time before it was fixed.

Lei Teng and Long Tiexin knew what was going on. Although they understood Lei Gong's intention, they were still a little worried. They knew that the hidden dangers of this matter were not small, and repairing it might only be a temporary delaying tactic. To truly resolve this crisis, it might take a lot of effort, and even some price to pay.

Lei Gong didn't say it in front of everyone, but Long Tiexin understood it immediately and said, "The Pili Hall is in chaos this time, thanks to all of you for your help. The hall master has come forward now, but Mr. Luo may not be able to handle it for a while. Let's go to the Zixiao Hall first and let the Pili Hall thank everyone."

After saying that, Long Tiexin waved his hand, pointed to the mountain in front, made a gesture of invitation, and the cold expression on his face disappeared, replaced by a faint smile and full of gratitude, inviting everyone to go to the front mountain.

Lei Gong was the first to respond and waved his hand: "That's right, Tie Yatou, go get ready first, everyone follow me to the main hall."

As soon as Lei Gong finished speaking, he stood up, followed by the masters of Cangyun and Yaochi. Bai Xiyuan and the Bai family's men looked at the Leichi, and immediately followed. Then, Fairy Ji Yao also nodded, exchanged a look with Lei Teng, and left Fairy Bai Lu to temporarily heal her wounds by the Leichi.

She did this for two reasons. First, as the Immortal Master of the Way, Lei Teng would not easily leave the Thunder Pond unless it was necessary, so he would not participate in entertaining the guests now. Bai Lu was not suitable to move now, so staying here was just right to deal with any possible situation. Moreover, Fairy Ji Yao also had something to say to Feng Chen, but Luo Hongchen got there first, so she didn't say much. She left Bai Lu behind to pick her up when she left and have a good talk with Feng Chen, who would most likely leave the Thunder Pond by then.

As for the Martial Saint Jiang He, after he showed up, he felt that he didn't help much and almost messed up the arrangement, and he felt a little guilty. In addition, he was not good at socializing, so he chose not to go to the hall. After signaling to Lei Gong, he decided to stay here and wait for his master to come out, and wait with Lei Teng.

Next, to make a long story short, the guests and hosts sat down in the Purple Sky Hall, and the disciples of the Thunderbolt Hall served them. Lei Gong also expressed his gratitude many times. Then, half a cup of tea passed, and before the banquet started, Bai Xiyuan spoke first: "Master Lei, I came here this time because of my father's request. If Chen'er is lucky enough to complete the meridian construction and meridian continuation, the Cang Yun Sect will be deeply grateful to Master Lei. It's just that regarding his cultivation, my father intends to personally guide him. Now that the major issues of the Thunderbolt Hall have been resolved, there is still a lot of follow-up work to be done. The Cang Yun Sect will not disturb us too much this time. Please ask Master Lei to call Chen'er back so that I can take him back to the South China Sea."

Lei Gong stood up and tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Brother Bai, you have come a long way and you have worked hard. I, Lei Gong, have not treated you well yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Bai Xiyuan waved his hands quickly: "Master Lei is too polite. Our two families have such a good relationship that we don't care about those conventional etiquette. It is indeed inappropriate to disturb you now. There is a long time to come. I will come to bother you again in the future."

Seeing that he was determined to leave, Lei Gong stopped talking, clasped his fists, and said, "In that case, I won't force you to stay. But as for Chen'er, Grandpa Luo has personally told him that after repairing the Thunder Pond, he will take him to do something important, and he said that after that, he will personally send him back to the South China Sea."

"Well, since Mr. Luo needs help, I won't hide it. I believe my father can understand. I'll leave first. Master Lei, please don't see me off." Bai Xiyuan said as he clasped his hands together, said hello to Lei Gong and Fairy Ji Yao, and then turned around and left with the people from Cang Yun Sect. His words were a little helpless, but he seemed very firm. It was obvious that he couldn't refuse Mr. Luo's request, and at the same time expressed his respect for Lei Gong and courtesy to Fairy Ji Yao.

Lei Gong hurriedly stepped forward to see him off. Although Bai Xiyuan asked him not to see him off, Lei Gong could not lose his manners. After all, he was here to help, and he could not make him feel uncomfortable. He knew the rules of the martial arts world very well. He had to give enough face and respect to the allies who came to help, which was also the key to maintaining the relationship between the two sides.

As soon as everyone left the hall, Bai Xiyuan stood still and turned around, clasping his fists to say goodbye to Lei Gong: "Master Lei, please don't see me off, we're leaving now." After saying that, he turned into a stream of light and headed straight for the South China Sea, followed by the other people from the Cangyun Sect. They came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Lei Gong watched them go away until all the streams of light disappeared in the clouds, then he turned around with a somewhat embarrassed look in his eyes, looked at Fairy Ji Yao, stood at the door for a while, and did not enter the hall.

Fairy Ji Yao knew something was wrong, and immediately said, "Master Lei, please wait a moment. I have to take care of Bai Lu's injury. Also, my grandmaster, Master Gu Yuan, has something to say to Grandpa Luo. I'd like to trouble you to take me to see Grandpa Luo. After that, I'll take my disciple back to heal." There was a hint of urgency in her words, and it was obvious that she was very concerned about Bai Lu's injury. At the same time, she also said that she had important information to convey to Grandpa Luo.

"Okay." Lei Gong nodded, then said to Long Tiexin, "Tie girl, please entertain us. Sister Ji Yao and I will be back soon." There was trust in his tone, and it was obvious that he was confident in Long Tiexin's ability and sense of responsibility.

"Okay." Long Tiexin stood up and agreed, then turned around and asked his disciples to prepare a banquet. The Yaochi lineage rarely went out, and this time they came to the Pili Hall in a hurry to help. Regardless of etiquette or the fact that the two families did not usually interact, Long Tiexin warmly entertained Lei Gong and Ji Yao after they left, making the remaining eight disciples of Jiutian Yuanjun a little embarrassed, and kept saying that they were too polite.

Turning to look outside the thunder pool, Lei Gong and Ji Yao landed one after another. After they stood still, Lei Teng spoke first: "Brother, it was inconvenient to say it just now. Do you have any instructions now?" There was a bit of doubt in his words. Fairy Ji Yao also turned her head. She was meticulous and had a good relationship with Lei Gong, so she had heard some of Lei Gong's words before. Now she also had a face full of question marks. Even the Martial Saint Jiang He next to him felt that something was wrong and quickly asked with his eyes.

Lei Gong looked at the three of them, and seemed a little embarrassed. He waited for a long time but didn't say anything. Finally, he sighed deeply, stretched out his hand and shot out a bolt of lightning that turned into a light shield, covering Fairy Bai Lu inside so that she couldn't hear them talking. Then he said, "Alas, this matter is really tricky. The demon hill destroyed the formation, and now the devouring power is endlessly devouring in the thunder pool. The power of the immortal veins in Leiming Mountain is slowly being lost. If this continues, Pili Hall may have to move, and the people of Leiming Mountain and the creatures here may suffer. Moreover, we don't know what is sealed in the formation. If it is released, I'm afraid the whole world will suffer."

Lei Gong roughly pointed out the key to the problem. The three people understood and became a little worried. However, Fairy Ji Yao knew that Lei Gong must have a way to solve this problem since he kept her. It was probably related to her, so she asked, "Mr. Luo has not shown up. Is he trying to find a way to fix it?"

"That's right, there are two paths to take now." Lei Gong answered directly.

"I wonder if Hall Master Lei could explain it in detail?" Martial Saint Jiang He asked hurriedly. He cared about this matter, on the one hand because he was worried about the living beings here, and on the other hand he was worried about the safety of his master. After all, there seemed to be considerable danger hidden between the thunder pools that Lei Gong mentioned. His master had never shown up. According to the old man's style, if this matter could not be resolved, he would not escape. Even if he had to sacrifice himself here, he would do his best to resolve it. This was also what he was most worried about, so when he was anxious, he seemed more anxious than others.

Lei Gong nodded, with a serious face: "Of course I can say that, there are two ways, one up and one down. The up way is to seal the formation and cut off its swallowing ability. Leiming Mountain is temporarily safe. As for the future, Grandpa Luo has already made it very clear. Naturally, someone will be able to solve this formation in the future, and the crisis will be resolved. As for the downside..."

Lei Gong paused, as if weighing something in his mind, and then continued: "Even if it is completely wiped out, the price is that Leiming Mountain will be completely destroyed, Fuyang Mountain Range will also be seriously injured, and Pili Hall will not be able to escape. We must move quickly before it is destroyed and find a new place to open the mountain. The creatures here must also be evacuated first."

Lei Gong finished speaking and shook his head. He was always aloof and arrogant, and he never frowned in the face of danger, but there were some things he couldn't say to his friends. But now the crisis was in front of him, and he had to consider Long Tiexin's matter, so no matter how difficult it was, he had to bite the bullet and say it.

However, he talked so much in a roundabout way, but he didn't get to the point. However, Fairy Ji Yao was very smart and understood Lei Gong's meaning after listening halfway. So when Lei Gong finished speaking, she asked directly: "What do you need me to do? Or how can Yao Chi help?"
