Lei Realm.
Inside the Lei Clan's grand hall, the atmosphere grew silent as Mo Yu recounted the events that transpired in the Yao Clan.
No one spoke. No one had expected the Hun Clan to be hiding such secrets. But what truly made them feel an imminent threat was the existence of Nihility Devouring Flame.
Leaving aside its eerie ability to devour bloodlines, just its strength alone, comparable to a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, was enough to command unparalleled reverence.
"The Hun Clan has targeted the Ling, Shi, and Yao Clans for two possible reasons—one is to harvest their bloodline power, and the other is, of course, the ancient Tou She Ancient Jade. Once their plan fully unfolds, the Lei Clan will surely be next." Mo Yu's voice was heavy.
"Hun Tiandi…"
Lei Ying muttered the name, his expression darkening. Despite his combative nature, even he had to approach this man with utmost caution.
After all, Hun Tiandi stood at the very pinnacle of the continent, an existence matched only by Gu Yuan, the patriach of the Gu Clan.
"What does Father plan to do?" A silver-robed man, seated before Lei Fei'er, asked in a deep voice. "The Hun Clan already holds four pieces of the ancient jade. As for the remaining four, they will surely stop at nothing to obtain them.
If they succeed in unlocking Tou She Ancient Emperor's mansion, they might even find the secret to advancing to the Dou Di realm.
If that day comes, no one on the continent will be able to resist them. The fate of all will rest in the hands of the Hun Clan."
Mo Yu followed the voice and quickly recognized the man—Lei Ying's eldest son, Lei Dong, and Lei Fei'er's brother.
Lei Dong also looked over, meeting Mo Yu's gaze with a friendly nod.
Regarding this brother-in-law of his, Lei Dong was clearly quite satisfied. After all, even he could not match Mo Yu's achievements across the continent.
That said, the only thing that bothered Lei Dong was the rumors that his sister's husband was constantly surrounded by stunning women. Even though Lei Fei'er was among them, she hardly held much of an advantage.
The thoughts of Lei Dong were unknown to the other Lei Clan higher-ups. At this moment, everyone's mood was somber.
Unbeknownst to them, they were already standing at the precipice of crisis. The Hun Clan's slow-boiling strategy had already weakened them step by step. If things continued, they too would follow the fate of the Yao, Shi, and Ling Clans.
Lei Ying remained silent, his face unreadable, while the Lei Clan elders exchanged grim looks. The situation was dire, but if they truly wished to go to war with the Hun Clan, the disparity in strength was something they could not ignore.
"I believe that, with the Eight Ancient Clans reduced to only three besides the Hun Clan, we must form an alliance—otherwise, the Hun Clan will pick us off one by one." Mo Yu's voice echoed through the hall, firm and resolute.
His words immediately drew everyone's attention. After a moment of contemplation, most nodded in agreement.
The only true force capable of countering the Hun Clan was the Gu Clan. Even the Lei Clan had to set aside their pride and seek their aid.
"This plan is reasonable," Lei Ying finally spoke, "but the Gu Clan is powerful, nearly on par with the Hun Clan. What if they take advantage of this situation to suppress us or use us as cannon fodder?" Lei Ying's second-in-command, Lei Ying, voiced his concern.
Mo Yu smiled. "Rest assured, Senior Lei Ying. With the destruction of the Yao, Shi, and Ling Clans, the Gu Clan must already feel the looming threat. If we propose an alliance now, they will surely welcome it."
Hearing this, Lei Ying finally exhaled a breath of relief. He raised his head and looked at Mo Yu with a rare smile.
"Well said, boy. You have guts. Someone, send word to the Gu Clan—tell them the Lei Clan wishes to discuss an alliance!"
With Lei Ying's decision, the news quickly spread among the upper echelons of the Lei Clan. The entire Lei Realm soon fell into a tense atmosphere. Numerous experts were dispatched to Central Plains, closely monitoring every movement of the Hun Clan.
Meanwhile, Mo Yu did not immediately leave.
His body still held an abundance of Nine Profound Golden Thunder's energy. If he did not refine it soon, the lingering violent energy could cause further harm to his body.
Before leaving the grand hall, Mo Yu subtly reminded Lei Ying to be vigilant in protecting the Tou She Ancient Jade—especially against the possibility that the clan elders guarding it might be swayed by the Hun Clan and betray them.
However, Lei Ying merely laughed and waved his hand dismissively. "You worry too much."
The elders tasked with guarding the ancient jade were figures of great prestige and strength, individuals whom even Lei Ying had to address with respect. Suspecting them without reason would only cause unnecessary discord within the clan.
Seeing Lei Ying's reaction, Mo Yu could only sigh inwardly.
Although his status within the Lei Clan was high—faintly surpassing even the young patriach Lei Dong—he held little actual authority. Furthermore, he did not know which elder was the traitor. Pressing the issue too much would only sow more distrust.
The same would be true for the Gu and Yan Clans—if he brought it up with them, they might react with hostility rather than concern.
At this thought, Mo Yu couldn't help but marvel at the Hun Clan's intricate planning.
To infiltrate the core of the three clans and plant a spy for thousands of years without anyone noticing—the mastermind behind this scheme was truly a figure on par with the legendary Wolong and Fengchu.
Amidst a tranquil mountain peak, a bamboo house stood tall. A gentle breeze swept through, causing the bamboo forest to sway, resembling a sea of green waves undulating in harmony.
"Dear, the thunder-related treasures you needed are all here. See if there's anything missing."
Inside the bamboo house, Lei Fei'er stood gracefully, her luxurious and noble attire accentuating her enchanting figure. Her delicate face carried a mesmerizing smile—one so captivating that even the most heroic of men would find themselves utterly entranced.
Before Lei Fei'er, numerous jade boxes floated mid-air. Faint traces of astonishing thunder energy seeped from within, making it clear that these were no ordinary items.
Mo Yu's gaze merely swept across the treasures before settling on the most beautiful figure in the room. He stepped forward, pulled her slender waist into his embrace without hesitation, and chuckled, "There's still one thing missing—a great beauty."
Hearing his teasing words, Lei Fei'er's delicate face flushed slightly. She shot him a glare, but the hint of shyness only made her appear even more charming. Mo Yu's eyes burned with intensity as he admired her.
This woman, regarded as a goddess by the younger generation of the Lei Clan, was now displaying such an alluring expression before him. The temptation was simply irresistible, and even Mo Yu felt a surge of desire rising within him.
"Dear... you're pressing against me."
Just then, Lei Fei'er, nestled in his embrace, suddenly realized something. Her face turned as red as an apple, and she murmured in a voice as soft as a mosquito's whisper.
"Uh... Ahem..."
Mo Yu froze for a moment before quickly adjusting his posture. He gave a sheepish laugh, "Fei'er, I—"
But before he could finish, Lei Fei'er's delicate hand gently covered his lips. Her voice was laced with embarrassment yet filled with tenderness as she whispered, "It's okay, dear... Fei'er is yours."
Hearing these words, an uncontrollable heat surged through Mo Yu's body. His silver eyes glowed with passion as he gazed at the beauty in his arms. Even his breathing grew heavier, and his grip tightened around her waist.
However, in the next instant, Mo Yu bit his own tongue. The sharp pain instantly cleared his mind. Lowering his gaze to Lei Fei'er, he cupped her face and suddenly bit down on her soft lips before letting go.
Lei Fei'er's face turned from shy to slightly annoyed, but before she could speak, Mo Yu reached out to gently stroke her hair. With a wry smile, he said, "Fei'er, help me guard the area. I need time to refine the energy in my body. During this period, try not to let anyone disturb me."
Although love and passion were intoxicating, the entire continent was on the brink of chaos. Mo Yu had no choice but to prioritize his strength above all else.
Seeing him turn serious, Lei Fei'er understood the gravity of the situation. Besides, she did not want to give away her first time in such a rushed manner either.
The blush on her face gradually faded as she nodded gently. Then, she tiptoed out of the room and closed the door behind her. Standing outside, she lightly touched her lips, her eyes brimming with tender affection.
"Heh, little sister."
As Lei Fei'er was lost in thought, a clear and teasing voice suddenly rang out behind her. She turned around quickly, her face flushing slightly, before offering a soft smile. "Brother."
Lei Dong's eyes held a mischievous glint as he approached. He glanced at the bamboo house and murmured to himself,
"Father's judgment is still as sharp as ever. When I first heard he was arranging your marriage to an exiled outcast, I was completely against it.
After all, little sister, you are considered a goddess among the younger generation of our clan. Even the Young Patriach of the Yan Clan was deeply enamored with you. But Father never agreed to any of their proposals, instead insisting on betrothing you to an unknown nobody.
Who would have thought that this so-called nobody would rise to such heights solely by his own strength?"
Lei Fei'er smiled beautifully, her proud and noble eyes reflecting a trace of admiration.
Initially, she had been strongly opposed to the engagement as well. However, after witnessing Mo Yu's incredible talent firsthand, she had gradually fallen for him. It might have been a different kind of love, but it was undoubtedly genuine.
"Sigh, it's just a shame that my dear brother-in-law has too many women. I've heard that, officially, he already has at least two or three. One of them is even the daughter of the Xiao Clan. If we count the ones he hasn't married yet, he probably has more than a handful."
Lei Dong chuckled teasingly as he glanced at Lei Fei'er.
To his surprise, Lei Fei'er showed no visible reaction. She had already come to terms with the fact that Mo Yu had multiple women. On this continent, it was entirely normal for the strong to have multiple wives. Moreover, Mo Yu had always treated his women fairly, never favoring one over another. As a result, his wives got along exceptionally well.
Seeing her calm demeanor, Lei Dong couldn't help but look a little surprised.
He knew his sister's temperament very well. Yet, this proud and noble young lady was willing to share her husband with other women?
Just how much charm did this Mo Yu possess?
With that thought, Lei Dong turned his gaze toward the bamboo house once again. There, waves of powerful energy were rising from within, drifting into the sky. It was clear that Mo Yu was in the middle of a breakthrough.
...
Inside the bamboo house, as more and more of the Nine Profound Golden Thunder energy was refined into pure Dou Qi and merged into his body, Mo Yu's previously stagnant cultivation base finally began to loosen, slowly breaking past the bottleneck of a Six-Star Dou Sheng.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
During this time, the energy of the Nine Profound Golden Thunder in Mo Yu's body had been completely refined, transforming into an immense tide of Dou Qi that surged through his meridians.
On the eleventh day, Mo Yu slowly opened his eyes. Instantly, Golden Thunder dragons coiled around his body before turning into threads of lightning, which he inhaled into his nose and mouth. At the same time, a terrifying surge of energy erupted from within him—one that had already surpassed the level of a Five-Star Dou Sheng.
As his foot lightly touched the ground, Mo Yu closed his eyes and sensed the changes in his body. A satisfied smile surfaced on his face.
This breakthrough had gone exactly as he had expected—he had successfully advanced from the peak of Five-Star Dou Sheng to Six-Star Dou Sheng in one go. The progress was extraordinary.
However, his cultivation retreat was not yet over.
With a flick of his sleeve, he summoned all the thunder-related treasures Lei Fei'er had gathered, suspending them in front of him.
Gazing at the collection of thunder-imbued heavenly treasures, Mo Yu chuckled softly.
As long as he absorbed these, he could rapidly restore the remaining Thunder Souls on the Thunder Soul Ranking to their peak state.
With the addition of the Peak Divine Wood Gang Thunder he had recently obtained, he would soon be able to command every Thunder Soul on the ranking—except for the first one!
