1077. Reaching the Origin
"That's quite a coincidence. Young Master Lei Jingxiao of my Guiyuan Mansion is a prodigy of the Lei Clan."
Lei Qingyue glanced at Yan Yu, her smile growing even brighter: "You don't need to introduce him anymore. I know that kid much better than you do."
"I'm also going to Guiyuan Prefecture, so I can give you a ride since we're going the same way."
With such a powerful elite of the Lei Clan accompanying them, it's unlikely that any unexpected incidents will occur along the way. With him there, there won't be any problems within the Lianqi Prefecture. This small team naturally agreed readily to accompany Lei Qingyue back to the Guiyuan Prefecture.
During this time, Lei Qingyue did not use his superior strength, and simply returned slowly with the team. He even took some time to pull Lianhua, one of the seven people, aside for a questioning.
Lei Qingyue's tone was not very friendly, and the others assumed it was because of the cultivation technique itself, so they hurriedly explained.
In fact, Lei Qingyue had already seen through it; this little trick of the Soul Clan couldn't fool him. However, he was particularly displeased with Lianhua's attitude. Although the latter was exceptionally respectful to him, he always felt that Lianhua seemed to be mocking him intentionally or unintentionally.
He suppressed him with the pressure of a Dou Sheng level expert, and after Lianhua felt a dizzying sensation, he, as a senior expert, could not make another move.
"With my battle qi assisting him, the little guy's cultivation speed will be half a percent faster than before. Consider it my greeting gift to him."
The remaining people glanced at Lianhua with slight envy, then immediately thanked him on his behalf. They completely ignored the pained expression on Lianhua's face when he was being oppressed. The person before them was a genuine Dou Sheng expert; if he wanted to do something to them, they were powerless to stop him.
The group then successfully returned to Guiyuan Mansion, or more accurately, Guiyuan Realm.
Lei Qingyue was also visiting the Guiyuan Realm for the first time. The Guiyuan Realm now has a completely different layout and style from its predecessor, the Spirit Realm.
Originally, the Spirit Realm was inhabited by ordinary descendants on the outer perimeter, while the core ethnic groups resided in the inner layer. However, the current Guiyuan Prefecture is laid out in a more block-like pattern. Each block is interconnected, yet clearly divided into several parts, primarily due to the current overall system of Guiyuan Prefecture. There are ten regions, each responsible for different tasks, so the distinctions are quite clear on a daily basis.
The entire Guiyuan Realm is now protected by an extremely powerful array, so even a Dou Sheng expert cannot enter it without being detected.
Lei Qingyue could only have the small team report the situation first, and then have a Dou Sheng-level expert personally verify that it was Lei Qingyue of the Lei Clan before allowing him to pass.
Even a high-ranking member of the Lei Clan like Lei Qingyue cannot be treated casually, even as a matter of courtesy. Now, Little Fairy Doctor, who completely controls all affairs of Guiyuan Prefecture, quickly flew away after giving a few brief instructions to those around her.
"Greetings, Senior Qingyue!"
When Lei Qingyue saw the newcomer, he smiled slightly, showing none of the airs of a powerful expert from a family descended from a Dou Di.
"So you are the Little Fairy Doctor of Guiyuan Mansion?"
Little Fairy Doctor nodded, but before she could speak, Lei Qingyue added.
"I've long heard that Xiao Yan has a virtuous wife, a master of maintaining balance; it must be you!"
"Thank you for your high regard, senior. You flatter me."
Little Fairy Doctor was quite surprised by Lei Qingyue's praise. It wasn't that she cared so much about the compliment, but rather that she already knew a great deal about Lei Qingyue of the Lei Clan. The man before her was known as the Lei Clan's strategist, second only to the clan leader in strength, and possessed a meticulous mind; he was arguably the most difficult person to deal with in the Lei Clan. She hadn't expected such high praise on their first meeting.
Little Fairy Doctor, of course, had no idea that Lei Qingyue's actions were entirely due to his affection for the house.
He came to Guiyuan Prefecture on the advice of another person. That person held Little Fairy Doctor in high regard.
However, later on, especially after Lei Qingyue learned about the current situation in Guiyuan Prefecture, he genuinely began to appreciate Xiao Yixian from the bottom of his heart. Because in terms of setting up systems and managing the entire family, he and Xiao Yixian both encountered a boss who really didn't care about anything, and many things could only be handled by them.
This exceptionally polite greeting did not last long, as Little Fairy Doctor warmly led Lei Qingyue into the main hall of Guiyuan Mansion.
At the same time, Yao Lao also arrived, since he couldn't really let Little Fairy Doctor accompany Lei Qingyue indefinitely. Currently, Xiao Yan, the Pill Tower Ancestor, Yan Jin, Qing Lin, and others are all in seclusion, so the only one truly qualified to receive Lei Qingyue is Yao Lao.
Even Yao Lao was still a junior in front of Lei Qingyue.
"Greetings, Senior Qingyue!"
This was also Lei Qingyue's first time meeting Yao Lao. He raised an eyebrow slightly and gave a very kind smile: "Yao Chen? That little brat from the Yao Clan back then?"
Lei Qingyue is a Seven-Star Dou Sheng, and in terms of seniority, he is much older than Yao Lao. When Yao Lao was still young and had not yet truly made a name for himself on the continent, Lei Qingyue was already a well-known powerhouse among the eight clans. So, it's not unreasonable for him to call him "little kid."
"I am merely a discarded child of the Medicine Clan, yet I am grateful for your concern, senior."
Lei Qingyue's eyes were extremely sharp. Although Yao Lao was currently only a two-star Dou Sheng, his Heavenly Realm Perfection soul could not be hidden. Even within the Lei Clan, there were only two people with a Heavenly Realm Perfection soul. Yao Lao could contend with a four-star Dou Sheng level expert with just his soul power.
"Sigh..." Lei Qingyue shook his head helplessly: "The descendants of Dou Di are good in every way, but their arrogant and disdainful temper is deeply ingrained in their bones."
"Now that you've made such a name for yourself and have such cultivation, how could the Medicine Clan possibly consider you a pawn? However, you're just too stubborn to back down."
Little Fairy Doctor listened intently, her expression becoming somewhat complicated. Lei Qingyue's words seemed to be directed at the Medicine Clan, but in reality, they were also subtly referring to Elder Yao, since Elder Yao truly had no intention of bowing down to the Medicine Clan.
So when Yao Lao heard this, he pretended not to understand at all and instead changed the subject.
"Senior Qingyue has come in person; it seems there is something important on your mind?"
Lei Qingyue touched the ring on his finger and nodded, saying, "If it's something important, I can manage. First, we need to take that kid who's been eating and drinking for free here away. I also have some things to tell you."
