Chapter 330: Am I Someone Who Can't Handle Temptation?
"Brother, why don't you lead the way? I want to take a look around the Lei Realm."
Gu Fei frowned. Among the clan, Lei Dong was the only person he was familiar with. For now, he could only rely on him to guide him around the realm. Of course, his goal wasn't just sightseeing. He wanted to meet the members of the clan and gauge their emotions to identify any hidden traitors.
"Forget it. Such a challenging task- I'll leave it to someone else."
"I have a cousin who has always admired you, Brother Gu. If she gets this chance, she'll be overjoyed!"
Lei Dong waved his hand dismissively, refusing. The idea of two men sightseeing together in the Lei Realm seemed odd, and the thought felt awkward to him.
Gu Fei was momentarily stunned by his straightforward refusal. He hadn't expected him to arrange for a woman to accompany him either.
"In that case, I'll leave it to you."
He thought for a moment before nodding slightly. Lei Dong smiled and left to make arrangements.
After a while, light footsteps approached.
"Young Master!"
A crisp, melodious voice sounded. Gu Fei looked up to see a woman in a silver dress walking gracefully toward him. She had a tall, curvaceous figure, and her long silver hair flowed like a waterfall, shimmering softly in the sunlight. Her delicate, refined features and snow-white skin gave her a fragile, ethereal beauty. But what stood out the most were her bright, starry eyes, which looked shyly at him.
"It's a pleasure to meet you," she said, her tone filled with excitement and admiration, her cheeks flushed with a hint of red.
Hmm? What is Lei Dong up to, sending such a beautiful woman? Is this some kind of test? Does he think I can't resist such temptations?
"You flatter me, Miss Lei. I appreciate your company on this trip."
He nodded with a faint smile.
"It is my honor to guide you," Lei Zhuzhu said, her face reddening slightly. (TL/n: She' an OC.)
"Please, lead the way then," he gestured politely.
She smiled and led the way. As they walked together, they headed deeper into the realm. All around, silver trees sparkled, their branches forked like lightning, and their jagged leaves crackled faintly with tiny electrical currents.
Dark clouds filled the sky, and thick bolts of lightning danced through the clouds with thunderous roars. The atmosphere was charged with a power that made it feel like one could be struck by lightning at any moment.
"Look, that's the Thunder Mountain Range," she pointed toward a towering mountain range in the distance with a touch of pride in her voice.
He looked up to see the mountains soaring into the clouds, their black peaks crisscrossed with silver lines resembling a vast lightning web. At the summit, the clouds were dense, and countless bolts of lightning flashed, creating a spectacular scene.
"What an incredible Mountain Range!" Gu Fei couldn't help but praise.
"If you're interested, we can go for a walk in the mountains. It's one of our clan's most important training grounds."
Seeing his admiration, Lei Zhuzhu's face lit up with joy. He nodded, and they both flew towards the Thunder Mountain Range.
As they got closer, he could feel the overwhelming power of the thunder, like a massive reservoir of lightning. Even with his current strength, he was moved by the sheer scale of it. Though it couldn't harm him, for weaker clan members, training here would be extremely dangerous.
At the foot of the mountain, Gu Fei looked up, marveling at its towering grandeur. Countless silver lightning bolts danced along its surface, crackling with a dangerous energy that made it feel as if one could be electrocuted at any moment.
"Shall we head up?" he suggested.
She nodded, and the two ascended toward the peak.
As they climbed higher, the intensity of the thunder energy grew stronger. He sensed the air around him pulsing with an unsettling energy. If an ordinary person were here, they would be torn apart by the overwhelming power of the thunder.
Boom!
A thick bolt of lightning suddenly shot down. Gu Fei reacted quickly, grabbing Lei Zhuzhu and dodging just in time. The lightning bolt narrowly missed them, leaving a scorched trail in the air.
"Thank you..." she said, her face blushing.
He smiled slightly and let go of her.
They soon reached the mountain peak. From there, the entire realm was visible, a sea of silver trees shimmering in the sunlight. In the distance, countless bolts of lightning snaked through the sky, creating a magnificent sight.
"The Lei Clan is truly awe-inspiring!" Gu Fei exclaimed sincerely.
"If you like it here, we can stay a bit longer," Lei Zhuzhu smiled.
He nodded, his eyes scanning the area.
Ding! Nearby clan members feel envy. Emotion value +5
Ding! Nearby clan members feel admiration. Emotion value +3
Ding! Nearby clan members feel jealousy. Emotion value +2
The system's notifications echoed in his mind. The emotions of the Lei Clan members were similar to what he had sensed in the Yan Clan- both respect and fear.
But he paid little attention to these feelings. His goal was to find the hidden traitor among the Lei Clan.
At that moment, an elderly man in a silver robe approached. His hair and beard were white, his face kind, but his eyes sparkled with wisdom.
"Young Master, I apologize for not welcoming you properly earlier. Please forgive me," the elder said, bowing respectfully.
Gu Fei nodded slightly. "No need for formalities, Senior."
"I am Lei Xiao," the elder introduced himself.
Gu Fei looked him over, but the system didn't detect any unusual emotional responses. It seemed this elder wasn't the person he was looking for.
(TL/n: Sorry for the late release. As an apology, I'm releasing the next update early.
In the meantime leave a review if you haven't yet and I'll catch you guys in a bit.)
