C49 Destroy the Lei Family
"Spare my life?"
Xiao Chen looked at the Thunder Leopard with a smile.
"That's right! Nine Lightning Stripe Thunder Fruit is not something you can take!" The Thunder Leopard said with a fierce gaze. That was something they offered to the shoulder-to-shoulder king.
"But there are clear rules that the Lei family cannot snatch the Thunder Fruit taken from the Heavenly Thunder Forest!" Xiao Chen said calmly. Facing the threats and temptations of the Lei family, Xiao Chen did not panic or worry at all.
"The ancestors are not lawful, I have my own rules! My Thunder Leopard is the rule! I advise you to be sensible!" The Thunder Leopard said somewhat impatiently. Listening to Xiao Chen's tone, it was clear that he did not want to hand it over.
"With just the two of you?" Xiao Chen looked at everyone with a cold gaze, as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
"With just us!" The Thunder Leopard raised its hand, and the sound of the bow and string being tightened could be heard. Bolts with cold light were pointed at Xiao Chen, and each of them was flickering with cold light, as if they could pierce through the ground.
"A wise man knows the situation. If I were Xiao Chen, I would hand him over!"
"That's right! Although the Nine Thunder Striped Thunder Fruit is precious, it's not worth mentioning compared to your life."
Everyone felt that Xiao Chen shouldn't hesitate. What they needed to do now was to hand over the Thunder Fruit. Thunder City was the territory of Lei family. Xiao Chen probably wouldn't be able to gain any advantage here.
"Get ready!"
With a wave of the Thunder Leopard's hand, the atmosphere instantly froze. The surrounding temperature seemed to have dropped quite a bit.
"Stop!" At this time, Yin Chengyun stood out and took the badge from his waist. "Bengong is here! Don't be presumptuous!" Yin Chengyun held a golden badge with a five-clawed golden dragon on it.
"Crown Prince Token?" Thunder Leopard frowned slightly. He didn't expect the current crown prince of the Nine-Feet Dynasty to be in Thunder City. Was this a private visit?
"After recognizing the crown prince's order, your Lei family will withdraw!" Yin Chengyun said coldly. Although the Lei family supported Third Prince, he was still the crown prince and the heir to the throne. Yin Chengyun knew that the Lei family wouldn't dare to act rashly. Otherwise, it would be a crime of treason.
Upon seeing the Crown Prince's order, the people of the Lei family looked at each other in dismay. Yin Chengyun's appearance was indeed an accident, a variable. They had wanted to kill and seize the treasure, killing two birds with one stone, but they didn't expect Yin Chengyun to come out.
"Big Brother!" Lei Hu stood beside the Thunder Leopard. With the appearance of the Crown Prince, Thunderclap City had no choice but to be wary of him. However, today's matter had no turning back. "After killing the Crown Prince, Third Prince will be the Crown Prince!"
"Get ready!"
The hesitating Thunder Leopard raised its hand and raised its bow once again. This time, not only did it aim at Xiao Chen, it also aimed at Yin Chengyun.
"Thunder Leopard, you dare?"
Yin Chengyun did not expect the Thunder Leopard to have the intention to kill him.
"The Crown Prince was killed by Xiao Chen. The Lei family is going all out to kill the thief. What's wrong with that? What crime? Thunder Leopard said with a sinister smile.
"His Majesty will reward the Lei family if he doesn't say anything!" The expression on Thunder Leopard's face became more and more sinister, and his smile became more and more eerie and sinister.
"Do you want to kill the crown prince?"
"The Lei family has always supported Third Prince in the Nine-Feet Dynasty. If the Crown Prince is killed, Third Prince will be the rightful heir. The Lei family is going all out."
Someone saw through Thunder Leopard's thoughts.
If the Crown Prince was dead, Third Prince would ascend to the throne. Then the Lei family would be the greatest contributor.
"Your Highness, be careful!" The followers behind them stood in front of Yin Chengyun. A cold light flashed in their hands, and they were on full alert.
"Stop! Don't be presumptuous in front of the Crown Prince!" A vigorous voice was heard, and it carried a deterrent force. When they heard this voice, all the soldiers stopped what they were doing. The giant door opened, and a man riding a demonic beast walked in.
"This old official Lei Ming greets Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"No need for formalities!" Yin Chengyun said calmly. Lei Ming, the City Lord of Thunderclap City, an old official of the three dynasties of the Nine Feet Dynasty, was the leader of Thunderclap City. He also had a high position in the dynasty. In front of this person, Yin Chengyun really didn't have much confidence.
"This old official has come here to seek revenge with the Crown Prince!" Lei Ming pointed at Xiao Chen. "This man is a traitor who belittled the prince. He is unforgivable. This old official will investigate this matter according to the decree!" Lei Ming looked at Xiao Chen and said.
Xiao Chen had ignored Third Prince twice. Lei Ming already knew that Third Prince's order was to kill Xiao Chen. He originally wanted to kill Xiao Chen himself, but now that the Crown Prince was here, Lei Ming couldn't be bothered to do it himself.
Lei Ming raised his hand and an imperial decree appeared in his hand. The Crown Prince opened it and saw that it was indeed an imperial decree. There was also the Imperial Jade Seal of their Nine-Feet Dynasty on it.
"This?" Yin Chengyun was at a loss.
Xiao Chen was a man he admired. He had magic power, and people could never forget him at a glance. He was not a simple man.
But now, he had issued the decree to kill Xiao Chen. This made Yin Chengyun somewhat hesitant. He was going to violate the decree. As the Crown Prince, he was afraid that he would have to bear the crime of disobeying the decree, and his position as the Crown Prince would not be guaranteed.
If he killed Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen would have no enmity with him, and he would have given him the Nine Lightning Striped Thunder Fruit. It would be inhumane for him to kill Xiao Chen, and he would never allow it to happen.
"Don't worry! When I return to the Palace, I will definitely persuade Royal Father to take back the Imperial Decree!"
Yin Chengyun put away the imperial edict and said to Xiao Chen. These words had already expressed Yin Chengyun's attitude. Xiao Chen would protect himself even if he lost the position of Crown Prince.
At this moment, he raised the bow again. Lei Ming looked at Yin Chengyun and said, "The Crown Prince has sacrificed himself to eliminate the bandits."
With just one sentence, no one could react. There was a swooshing sound coming from the sky. The arrows flew down and rained down from the sky, filling the sky with arrows.
The surroundings were filled with screams. In an instant, the edge of the Heavenly Thunder Forest was already littered with corpses.
Since the Lei family had decided to kill the Crown Prince, they would not leave any survivors. Anyone who knew about this would die. In an instant, the Heavenly Thunder Forest had become an Asura Arena.
"Small tricks!"
Xiao Chen raised his hand. The Dao Seeking Sword was like a thunderbolt. Purple light flickered as he raised his sword. The lightning in the sky and earth gathered. All of the lightning in the Heavenly Thunder Forest was concentrated on the sword in Xiao Chen's hand.
"Thunder Sword of Eight Desolations, Falling Sky Sword!"
Xiao Chen struck down with his sword. Thunder and lightning flashed in the sky and covered the entire sky. Bolts of lightning struck the ground, turning everything in front of him into a sea of lightning. The lightning was accompanied by miserable screams.
When the lightning dissipated, the ground in front of them was full of holes. The city wall had collapsed and was in an extremely sorry state.
Xiao Chen pointed his sword at Lei Ming. "I'll give you a chance!"
"You're courting death!"
Lei Ming shouted angrily and jumped down from the demon beast. He opened his arms and two large sabers appeared in his hands. He waved both sabers and the light from the sabers shone brightly. The ground cracked as the cold light flickered.
The cracks extended for a hundred meters and penetrated ten meters deep into the ground. The earth cracked and the ground shook. It felt like it was going to collapse at any moment.
"Two blades rising into the sky."
Lei Ming crossed his blades and raised them. Two bolts of lightning surged out from the blades and turned into two lightning flood dragons in the air. The flood dragon roared angrily and opened its mouth to bite Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen took a step back and stamped his foot. The ground cracked open and countless roots grew out from the ground. These roots instantly wrapped around the lightning serpent. The serpent exploded and dispersed in the time it took a breath to breathe.
The lightning on these roots was very strange.
"Is this the roots of the Thunderclap Tree?" Someone looked at the roots growing out of the ground and asked. These roots were twisting and turning in the air. They looked like snakes.
The roots tangled together in the air and turned into a thorn, directly killing the Thundercry Nail in the air.
Lei Ming died a tragic death. The Thunder Leopard and Lei Hu were already completely stunned on the spot. The two of them stared blankly at everything in front of them, feeling as if their bodies were no longer theirs.
The two of them wanted to escape, but their bodies could not be controlled.
"Let's go!"
As soon as the Thunder Leopard's voice faded, Thunder Leopard and Lei Hu turned around and fled. They did not care about Lei Ming. In the instant of life and death, everything became a burden.
"Too late!"
Xiao Chen lightly tapped the Dao-Seeking Sword. Two swords separated from the two sides of the sword. The Nine Suns Burning Heaven Sword and the Thunder Sword of the Eight Desolations Fall Sword. The two swords hummed and then turned into two light shadows that flew out.
One was a flame and the other was a thunderbolt.
"Open!"
The Thunder Leopard and Lei Hu turned around and opened their black and white umbrellas. The surface of the umbrella opened and formed a huge shield. A sixth-grade Numinous Treasure's defense was astonishing. Ordinary attacks could not penetrate it at all.
Opening the umbrella, the surface of the umbrella spun, and two whirlpools appeared in front of them.
The long sword stabbed forward, and the flames exploded. Thunder rumbled, and the flames soared into the sky. It was as if a fire had erupted, and thunder rumbled. It was as if thunder had struck.
Two beams of light were released a hundred meters away. The light and shadow disappeared. The Thunder Leopard and Lei Hu collapsed to the ground. The black and white umbrellas were torn into pieces and turned into a pile of scrap metal.
Xiao Chen lightly clapped his hands. "I've dealt with the main person. The rest will depend on you!" Xiao Chen looked at Yin Chengyun. Yin Chengyun was stunned. He did not expect Xiao Chen to even know this.
Yin Chengyun nodded slightly. The guard behind him took a step forward. An arrow pierced through the clouds. The sky rumbled. The warship landed. Crown Prince Guards.
"Your Highness!"
"The father and son of the Lei family have rebelled. They have already been killed. You can clean up the battlefield. The survivors must not be spared!"
"Respect your orders!" The man stood up and glanced at Xiao Chen before leaving.
In fact, Yin Chengyun didn't come to Thunder City just to celebrate his mother's birthday. There was another important reason. He had received secret protection from the Lei family all these years. If he could obtain this evidence, it would be a fatal blow to Third Prince.
Yin Chengyun didn't expect that everything would go so smoothly. He turned around and found that Xiao Chen was nowhere to be seen. It felt like he had never appeared before.
"Where is he?"
"I don't know."
Yin Chengyun was not the only one. The guard was also confused. He had been keeping an eye on Xiao Chen. If Xiao Chen had left or made any movements, he should have noticed it, but he did not notice anything unusual.
"There's no need to look for him!" Yin Chengyun waved his hand. Since he wanted to leave, it would be pointless to look for him.
At this moment, the carriage had already left Thunder City. Liang Yiyi was sitting in the carriage with an aggrieved expression. She had finally obtained a Nine Lightning Striped Thunder Fruit and gave it to Yin Chengyun. They did not obtain anything. In the end, they even became Yin Chengyun's hired thug and dealt with the Lei family.
"Young Master, we have suffered a great loss this time!" Liang Yiyi said in disappointment.
Xiao Chen smiled. "Look!" Xiao Chen spread his hand. Purple light flashed on his palm. There were a few nine-bolt thunder fruits. Liang Yiyi was so scared that she screamed.
old servant, who was outside the car, shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard the sound.
"Really? "It's not a dream, is it?" Liang Yiyi rubbed her cheeks. Xiao Chen gently flicked his forehead. It hurt Liang Yiyi so much that she cried out, "Does it hurt? If it hurts, then it is not a dream!"
"Young Master, where did you come from?"
"Of course I picked it from the tree!"
"Isn't there only one?"
Who said it was mine? I didn't say there was only one!" Xiao Chen said slyly.0
Liang Yiyi finally came back to her senses. No wonder Xiao Chen was so generous. He gave one to Yin Chengyun without hesitation. It was too despicable and treacherous for you. Only an honest man like Yin Chengyun would be cheated. Now, he was still grateful to Xiao Chen.
"Young master is indeed young master!"
Liang Yiyi gave him a thumbs up.
"Refining and absorbing well will be beneficial to you!" Xiao Chen handed the two Thunder Fruits to Liang Yiyi.
"Young Master, I love you!" Liang Yiyi looked at the Thunderclap Fruit. Today, she finally felt what it was like to have a pie fall from the sky and be able to win while lying down.
"Young Master has three days to travel to the imperial capital of the 9 Feet Dynasty!" old servant said as he drove the carriage.
