“Can you defeat me?”

“No, but we have a hundred thousand troops.”

“Alright, since you two desire prosperity, what’s wrong with giving my life to you? But I still have one last question I want to know.”

“Speak.”

“Who betrayed me?”

Not many knew he possessed the Innate Lightning Body, only a handful.

“It was Sui Xiaohang. He used this piece of intelligence to trade for some ancient pill formulas from the six great families and successfully became a Heavenly tier alchemist. Now, he is also a significant figure in the Lei Feng Realm.”

“Alright, I understand…”

“Yin Yang Sect, we give you one quarter-hour to hand over Wan Lei, or we will consider this a declaration of war against our six great families. Our six great armies will immediately trample the Yin Yang Sect!”

Outside, the voice of Clan Leader Liu could be heard.

“Let’s go. They want to kill me? I’ll go let them kill me.”

Wan Lei walked out of the cave. Outside, the mountains and plains were filled with people.

The people of Yin Yang Sect.

“Wan Lei… Old… Old man, I’ve wronged you. You are a good disciple, a disciple of the sect. By rights, the sect should protect you.

But… but you also know how powerful the six great families are, and outside, there are people from Kai Tian Sword Sect and Kui Lian Sect, who have also become dogs of the six great families.

I… our Yin Yang Sect truly cannot withstand the eight great forces.

Disciple, for the sake of the Yin Yang Sect’s five-thousand-year inheritance, I… I still implore you to…”

*Please walk out yourself.*

This sentence, the Yin Yang Sect Master could not utter.

He valued his reputation,

and his life.

“I understand.”

Wan Lei felt no anger, no resentment. He calmly walked step by step towards the mountain gate.

Qian Duoduo and the others watched him from a distance, not saying a word, completely forgetting the grand pronouncements they had made earlier about fighting the Fang family together.

Wan Lei walked,

ahead of him, hundreds of thousands of allied troops from the eight great families.

Behind him, Wan Liuchuan, Qi Manyao, and the entire Yin Yang Sect who had betrayed him.

Alone,

single-handedly,

against the entire world.

He stood unarmed at the mountain gate, appearing as if he had given up all resistance.

“Wan Lei, it’s good that you’re sensible and didn’t struggle or resist. This saves the Yin Yang Sect from losing more people.

A mere Wan family, a small ant. How did we all misjudge you? You actually possess the Innate Lightning Body.

The Lightning Emperor is the joint ruler of the Lei Feng Realm, but you should know, the Lei Feng Realm does not permit a second Lightning Emperor…”

Boom!!!

“Damn your mother…”

Clan Leader Liu hadn’t even finished his boast when a seven-colored bolt of lightning struck, and Wan Lei vanished. Great Wind Novel Network.

Why stand and be chopped when you can run?

Wan Lei was not a fool, he wouldn’t do something like sacrificing himself for righteousness.

Since you all betrayed me, I will definitely return for revenge!

The Wan family was gone, he had nothing left to worry about. The Fang family couldn’t possibly kill Fang Xiaoyu to threaten him.

He fled to an uninhabited area, a place he had passed through before.

Upon arriving here, Wan Lei immediately changed his appearance, concealed his aura, found the nearest teleportation array, and traveled to the planet he had emerged from after leaving the Lei Xing Sea.

He wanted to return to the Lei Xing Sea, to cultivate, and then return to exact his revenge.

He flew for two days, reaching the edge of the Lei Xing Sea, found a node, and began to break through.

Behind him, a vast army was closing in.

Wan Lei’s eyes widened. How did they get here so quickly?

“Hahaha, it’s just as the newly appointed Grandmaster Tian Suanzi of Tian Ji Pavilion predicted. When Wan Lei is at his most desperate, he will come to the Lei Xing Sea.

Hear my command, those who kill Wan Lei will be heavily rewarded!”

“Tian Suanzi… You betrayed me too!”

Wan Lei gritted his teeth. At the critical moment, he broke through the seal, flashed into the Lei Xing Sea, and then sealed the breach.

He was finally safe.

Returning to the Primordial Limitless Array where he had been before, in that familiar small courtyard, Wan Lei sat for a long time.

This was his former home, the place that held his most beautiful memories.

“Xiaoyu, wait for me…”

In this world, anyone could betray him, but Fang Xiaoyu never would.

Even though he was now an enemy of the world, he believed that if Fang Xiaoyu could come out, she would stand with him against the entire world.

She was his wife, the most important person in his life.

Here, Wan Lei continued to cultivate formations.

He repaired the Primordial Limitless Array, making it impregnable. Even if the lightning beast tide came, it couldn’t break through even a little.

Time passed like a fleeting white steed.

Wan Lei usually meditated and cultivated, and when he encountered bottlenecks, he would go out to fight lightning beasts, risking his life to seek opportunities for breakthroughs.

His cultivation progressed rapidly, and in just five years, he broke through to the Mahayana stage.

Out in the world, he could be considered a powerful figure.

However, it was not enough, far from it. The nine great forces had at least nine old monsters in the Tribulation Transcending stage.

Wan Lei calmed himself, forgetting his hatred, forgetting the past, forgetting everything, and immersed himself entirely in cultivation.

He was lonely.

An enemy of the world, with no one by his side.

No one to ask me if my porridge is warm, no one to stand with me at dusk.

Outside, with Wan Lei having entered the Lei Xing Sea and not emerged for many years, countless people speculated that Wan Lei must have died in the Lei Xing Sea.

Some also speculated that an old monster in the Tribulation Transcending stage had forcibly broken the seal and killed Wan Lei inside.

But the high-level officials of the nine great forces knew that Wan Lei…

was likely still alive.

Fifty thousand years ago, the situation was almost identical to the present.

Wan Qingyi apprenticed himself to the Yin Yang Sect and offended the then-leading sect, the Xie Yue Sect. He was pursued by the Xie Yue Sect and several other major sects.

At that time, the Yin Yang Sect did not expel Wan Qingyi but chose to remain silent.

The Yin Yang Sect Master at that time watched helplessly as his most outstanding disciple knelt before the mountain gate.

He said,

“I, Wan Qingyi, today renounce my师门. My actions have nothing to do with the师门. I shall bear it all myself, and heaven can bear witness. I hope…

that my enemies will not implicate the Yin Yang Sect.”

He renounced his师门 himself, so as not to burden it.

Afterward, he entered the Lei Xing Sea.

At that time, the Lei Xing Sea was not yet stabilized by the six immortal seals. The lightning was violent, making it a forbidden zone for cultivators.

No one knew what Wan Qingyi experienced inside, only that many years later, when he returned,

the entire Lei Feng Realm was shaken.

The sects that had pursued him back then were annihilated by him, one by one.

And now, a descendant of the Lightning Emperor, also possessing the Innate Lightning Body, was being hunted by the strongest forces and had fled into the Lei Xing Sea.

Everything was like a replica of the past.

They…

wanted Wan Lei to come out, and then kill him.

But they were even more afraid that what would emerge would be the Lightning Emperor.

That…

Lightning Emperor who, with his own strength, had overthrown the Lei Feng Realm.

Ten years ago, they drove Wan Lei into the Lei Xing Sea.

Ten years later, Wan Lei emerged.

The Lei Xing Sea was vast, as large as the Lei Feng Continent. No one could encircle it.

But the nine great forces had stationed spies on the planets surrounding the Lei Xing Sea.
