Leijiabao attacks
Inside the cultivation chamber, the other high-ranking elders of Lei Family Fortress also wore expressions of intense indignation.
Lei Fang possessed exceptional talent, a rising star in the family, and the disciple with the greatest potential to advance to the Divine Sea Realm or even the Yuqi Realm in Lei Family Fortress's history spanning several centuries.
Unexpectedly, he met his demise just like that.
With Lei Fang's fall, Lei Family Fortress undoubtedly suffered a severe blow!
Furthermore...
According to the many subordinates who escaped back to Lei Family Fortress, and what Lei Fang said before his death, another direct family member, Lei Li, also died at Xiao Ming's hands.
Lei Fang and Lei Li were biological brothers, both sons of Lei Ao.
Lei Ao had only these two sons, and now both had been killed by Xiao Ming.
Just thinking about this, Lei Ao's chest heaved with rage, almost to the point of murder!
He gritted his teeth in anger and said resentfully, "Now, I issue my command: First, immediately purchase the finest funeral supplies to hold a grand funeral for my son."
"Second, gather all the strong cultivators in the family and follow me to Spirit Sword Sect to demand an explanation!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the high-ranking elders present were startled.
An old man quickly advised, "Fortress Lord, we understand your grief over losing your son, but marching to Spirit Sword Sect so ostentatiously to cause trouble might not be a good idea!"
"That's right, Fortress Lord, you must calm down, you must think twice!" another old man also advised, "Spirit Sword Sect is a two-star sect, incredibly powerful, not someone we can afford to provoke."
"If we anger Li Changfeng, the Sect Master of Spirit Sword Sect, our Lei Family Fortress might face the danger of annihilation!"
Lei Ao, however, wore a cold sneer.
"You are overly cautious!" Lei Ao said, "Although his Spirit Sword Sect is powerful, within a thousand-mile radius, they cannot completely dominate. Qingfeng City's City Lord's Mansion is also a two-star power and has always been at odds with Spirit Sword Sect."
"And our Lei Family Fortress is not to be trifled with; don't forget, our family is a one-star power."
"If Li Changfeng dares to provoke us, we will collectively defect to the City Lord's Mansion, which is something Li Changfeng absolutely does not want to face."
"Furthermore!"
"A mere Xiao Ming is nothing! For my sake, Li Changfeng will most likely hand over Xiao Ming, allowing us to deal with him as we see fit."
"Therefore, you are worrying too much!"
The surrounding elders pondered, and it seemed that this was indeed the case!
Li Changfeng would not push them to a dead end for the sake of a mere disciple.
It must be said that Lei Ao was indeed extraordinary; although he was extremely angry, he had not lost his reason.
Instead, his mind was clear, and he had considered all matters thoroughly.
An old man immediately said, "Fortress Lord's foresight is admirable; we are impressed. I will now mobilize manpower to follow the Fortress Lord to Spirit Sword Sect and compel Li Changfeng to hand over the murderer!"
Not long after.
Lei Ao led a contingent of over a hundred people, marching majestically towards Spirit Sword Sect.
On the other side.
Inside Spirit Sword Sect.
Xiao Ming had already reached the end of his cultivation.
He had already condensed two Shattered Yuan Sword Qi, and the third Sword Qi was nearing completion.
After a while longer.
The third Sword Qi was completely condensed and stored in his Dantian; the three miniature Sword Qi, like small fish, swam joyfully in his Dantian.
And occasionally emitted sharp sword gleams.
He had just finished cultivating.
Suddenly, a deafening roar abruptly came from the mountain gate.
"Lei Ao, the Fortress Lord of Lei Family Fortress, along with his family members, pays respects to Your Excellency Li Changfeng; please come out and meet us!"
This voice, like rolling thunder, boomed and burst in the sky above Spirit Sword Sect.
Xiao Ming was first startled, then narrowed his eyes.
Lei Family Fortress, Lei Ao?
Why would people from Lei Family Fortress suddenly come here?
Could it be... Xiao Ming subconsciously thought of the brothers Lei Fang and Lei Li; he had a deep enmity with those two.
Lei Li had already been killed by him, and Lei Fang had an arm severed by him, presumably having fled back to his family in a sorry state.
So, Lei Family Fortress's sudden arrival was to seek revenge on him?
While he was thinking.
His master, Li Changfeng's voice, then rang out, "All elders and disciples above Inner Sect Disciple, follow this Sect Master out to greet the guests!"
Xiao Ming no longer hesitated and walked out of the room.
If it's a blessing, it's not a calamity; if it's a calamity, it cannot be avoided. If Lei Family Fortress was truly here to seek revenge on him, then Xiao Ming hiding in the sect would be useless.
Stepping out of the room, Xiao Ming saw the Little Fox Girl, Hu Yunxi, sweeping fallen leaves in the courtyard.
At this moment, Hu Yunxi was both afraid and angry.
She was afraid because the people from Lei Family Fortress had come knocking.
She was angry because she remembered the Cloud Fox Clan, which had been massacred by the Lei family.
Upon seeing Xiao Ming, Hu Yunxi immediately became nervous. She scurried over to Xiao Ming, looked up at him with her small face, and said worriedly, "Young Master, the people from Lei Family Fortress..."
"Don't worry, what happens today has nothing to do with you," Xiao Ming gently patted Hu Yunxi's small head, comforting her, "Just wait for me quietly at home; I'll be back soon."
With that, Xiao Ming's figure flickered, soaring into the sky, joining the other elders and Inner Sect Disciples, and rapidly shot towards the mountain gate.
In the small courtyard, Hu Yunxi watched the departing Xiao Ming, her face full of worry.
At the same time, she tightly clenched her small fists.
At this moment, she yearned for powerful strength!
Only by possessing powerful strength would she not be constantly startled and terrified by external troubles. If she had sufficiently formidable strength, she could ignore the Lei family members who had come knocking.
Amidst her longing.
A seed of energy within Hu Yunxi's body cracked further!
At the same time.
Xiao Ming, along with the other elders and Inner Sect Disciples, all arrived at the mountain gate.
Xiao Ming and his group were inside the gate, while the over one hundred people from Lei Family Fortress were outside the gate not far away. The two groups faced each other, and the atmosphere around them became tense, like swords drawn and bows bent.
Li Changfeng had already arrived; he stood with his hands behind his back, scanned the people from Lei Family Fortress, and then fixed his gaze on Lei Ao, who was leading them.
"Lei Ao, what great prestige you have!" Li Changfeng said with displeasure, "You bring so many people to storm the mountain gate; are you trying to attack my Spirit Sword Sect?!"
"Sect Master Li is joking; how could I, Lei Ao, have such courage?" Lei Ao said, holding his head high, "However, I have indeed brought people here today for a purpose!"
"What purpose?"
"Your Spirit Sword Sect has a disciple named Xiao Ming; this person killed my two sons! I am here today to seek justice!"
At this point, Lei Ao could not hide the anger in his heart and growled, "I ask Sect Master Li to hand over the murderer, allowing our Lei Family Fortress to deal with him as we see fit!"
The over one hundred people from Lei Family Fortress also shouted in unison,
"We ask Sect Master Li to hand over the murderer, allowing our Lei Family Fortress to deal with him as we see fit!"
Their voices were uniform and echoed through the sky.
As soon as these words were spoken.
Li Changfeng and the many elders all turned their heads in unison, looking at Xiao Ming.
