330. Chapter 330: Am I the Kind of Person Who Can't Withstand Temptation?
"Brother Lei, why don't you lead the way? I want to look around the Lei Realm."
Gu Fei frowned. Within the Lei Clan, Lei Dong was truly the only "acquaintance" Gu Fei had. For now, he could only let Lei Dong take him to tour the Lei Realm. Of course, he wasn't just doing it for the tour; he was doing it to meet the people of the Lei Clan and probe their emotions to identify the spy hidden within the Lei Clan. "Forget it, such a strenuous task, I'd better let someone else do it!"
"I have a cousin who usually admires you very much, Brother Gu Fei. If she has such an opportunity, she will surely be delighted!"
Lei Dong waved his hand in refusal; two men walking around the Lei Realm to look at the scenery was truly absurd.
He always felt there was something awkward about it. As soon as Lei Dong finished speaking, Gu Fei was slightly stunned. Gu Fei hadn't expected Lei Dong to decline so readily, nor had he expected the other party to arrange for a woman to accompany him.
"Since that is the case, then I will trouble Brother Lei to make the arrangements."
Gu Fei pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. Upon hearing this, Lei Dong revealed a smile and turned to leave.
After a while, a sound of light footsteps approached.
"Young Master Gu Fei!"
A crisp, melodious voice rang out. Gu Fei looked up and saw a woman dressed in a long silver dress walking over slowly.
The woman was tall with an exquisite figure. Her long silver hair hung down like a waterfall, shimmering with a soft glow under the sunlight.
Looking closely, the woman's features were delicate and pretty, and her skin was as white as snow, as if it could be pinched to release water.
Most striking were those eyes, bright as stars, which were currently looking at Gu Fei with shyness and timidity.
"This humble one is Lei Zhuzhu. It is truly a great honor to be able to meet Young Master Gu Fei today."
Lei Zhuzhu took light steps, arrived before Gu Fei, and performed a graceful bow, her tone filled with excitement and admiration.
A blush rose on her fair cheeks, making her look charming and moving.
Hmm? What kind of trick is Lei Dong playing? Sending such a beauty, is he testing me? Am I, Gu Fei, the kind of person who can't withstand temptation?
"Miss Lei is too kind. I will have to trouble you to accompany me on this trip."
Gu Fei nodded slightly and smiled indifferently. "Young Master, you are too polite. It is my honor to be able to guide you."
Lei Zhuzhu's pretty face flushed slightly. "Then please lead the way, Miss Lei."
Gu Fei made a gesture of invitation.
Lei Zhuzhu nodded and turned to lead the way.
The two walked side by side, slowly heading toward the depths of the Lei Realm. Looking around, the entire Lei Realm shimmered with silver light, and strange Silver Trees stood upon the land. The trunks of those Silver Trees branched and wound like lightning, and the leaves were serrated. As a breeze blew, the leaves collided with each other, emitting a "crackle" sound, as if countless tiny electric currents were flowing.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and thick lightning bolts shuttled through the clouds from time to time, emitting deafening roars.
The entire space was permeated with a heart-palpitating power of thunder, giving one the feeling of being struck by lightning at any moment. "Young Master, please look, that is the Thunder Mountain Range of our clan."
Lei Zhuzhu pointed to a towering mountain range in the distance and said, her tone carrying a hint of pride.
Gu Fei looked up and saw that the mountain range soared into the clouds, its entire body appearing a deep black. The surface of the mountain was covered with silver patterns, like a giant lightning web.
The summit was covered in dark clouds, and countless lightning bolts shuttled through the clouds; the scene was spectacular.
"What a Thunder Mountain Range!"
Gu Fei could not help but exclaim in admiration.
"If Young Master is interested, we can go for a walk in the mountain range. That is one of the most important cultivation holy lands of our clan."
Seeing Gu Fei's admiration, Lei Zhuzhu's face revealed a look of joy. Gu Fei nodded, and the two flew toward the Thunder Mountain Range.
As the distance closed, Gu Fei felt that heart-palpitating power of thunder even more intensely. The entire mountain range seemed like a giant Leichi, with endless power of thunder surging within it.
"Boom—!"
A thick bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky, striking the summit directly. In an instant, the entire mountain range trembled, and countless electric arcs wandered across the surface of the mountain; the scene was shocking. Such strong power of thunder. Even with Gu Fei's current cultivation, he could not help but be shocked by the scene before him.
Although these lightning bolts could not cause him much harm.
However, for those clansmen with low cultivation, it was extremely dangerous to cultivate here. The two arrived at the foot of the mountain, and Gu Fei looked up.
Seen from up close, this mountain range appeared even more towering and majestic. Countless silver lightning bolts wandered across the surface of the mountain, emitting "crackle" sounds, giving one the feeling of being electrocuted at any moment.
"Let's go up and take a look."
Gu Fei suggested.
Lei Zhuzhu nodded, and the two rose into the air, flying toward the summit.
As the altitude climbed, the surrounding power of thunder became increasingly dense. Gu Fei could feel a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation permeating the air. If an ordinary person came here, they would likely be torn to pieces by this terrifying power of thunder in an instant.
"Boom!"
Another thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at the two.
Gu Fei was quick-witted and fast-handed; he grabbed Lei Zhuzhu and flashed away to dodge it. The lightning bolt grazed their bodies, leaving a scorched mark in the air.
"Thank you, Young Master!"
Lei Zhuzhu's pretty face flushed. Gu Fei smiled slightly and let go of her hand.
The two soon reached the summit. Looking out, the entire Lei Realm was in full view. Countless Silver Trees were like a silver ocean, shimmering with brilliant light under the sunlight. In the distance, streaks of thunder shuttled through the sky like silver snakes; the scene was spectacular.
"The Lei Clan is truly magnificent!"
Gu Fei exclaimed sincerely.
"If Young Master likes it, we can stay here a while longer."
Lei Zhuzhu smiled sweetly. Gu Fei nodded, his gaze scanning the surroundings.
【Ding, surrounding clansmen have generated feelings of envy, Emotion Value +5】
【Ding, surrounding clansmen have generated feelings of admiration, Emotion Value +3】
【Ding, surrounding clansmen have generated feelings of jealousy, Emotion Value +2】
The system's notification sounds kept ringing in Gu Fei's mind.
These emotional feedbacks were not much different from when he was at the Yan Clan; it seemed the clansmen of the Lei Clan were also both respectful and fearful of him.
However, Gu Fei did not care about these; his goal was to find the spy hidden within the Lei Clan.
Just at this moment, an old man dressed in a silver robe walked over slowly. The old man had white hair and a beard, a kind face, but his eyes flashed with the light of wisdom.
"So it is Young Master Gu Fei who has arrived; please forgive this old man for failing to welcome you properly."
The old man cupped his hands in a salute, his tone respectful.
Gu Fei nodded slightly: "You are too polite, Senior."
"This old man is Elder Lei Xiao of the Lei Clan. Hearing that the young master was visiting, I came specifically to pay my respects."
The old man introduced himself.
Gu Fei nodded, his gaze sweeping over Lei Xiao.
However, the system did not transmit any unusual emotional feedback. It seemed this Elder should be fine.
It seems he is not the person I am looking for. (End of chapter)
