Chapter 1069 Divine Thunder (1)
In a dark dungeon somewhere, a man dressed in ragged clothes was sitting on a cold stone floor. His messy long hair covered half of his face, and his unkempt beard could be seen. With his eyes closed, he seemed to enter a state of meditation, but one could see that he had no profound aura.
Clang!
Suddenly, a sound of an iron door rang out, along with a faint ray of sunlight shone into the dark room. A short moment of brightness revealed the rather handsome face of the man. If Yun Lintian saw this scene, he would immediately recognize the man. This person was no other than Lei Zhenxiang!
A few months ago, Lei Zhenxiang returned to the Divine Thunder Palace after sending Yun Lintian to the Western Continent and dealing with the Black Jade Island incident. When he took a step into the palace, he was immediately captured by his uncle, Lei Yubai.
Naturally, he tried to struggle, but it was useless as his close relatives were in Lei Yubai's hands. At that moment, he realized many elders who often showed affection and loyalty to him had already betrayed him.
In fact, it wasn't that he wasn't aware of this, but the betrayal of his brother-in-law, Luo Xiaojian, took him off-guard. He didn't expect the brother-in-law, who had never shown his ambition since he entered the Divine Thunder Palace, to actually collude with Lei Yubai a long time ago.
Since then, Lei Zhenxiang's profound strength was sealed, and he was thrown into this dungeon.
"It's been a while, brothers-in-law. How do you feel living here? It must be very uncomfortable, right?" A handsome young man clad in a spotless white robe walked into the room and said with a faint smile. A trace of contempt could be seen in that smile. This person was Luo Xiaojian, the husband of Lei Zhenxiang's older sister and Lei Jun's father.
Lei Zhenxiang didn't reply. He continued to meditate without caring for the newcomer.
However, Lou Xiaojian wasn't angry. He glanced around the dirty room and chuckled. "You know why I come here today… Seriously, you should give up and hand the Divine Thunder to my son already. Well, he's your nephew, after all. What's wrong with him inheriting your position earlier than the schedule?"
Lei Zhenxiang still had no reaction.
Lou Xiaojian waved his hand to pat some dust out of an iron bed and sat on it with disgust before saying. "Also, I have a piece of good news to tell you…."
He smiled brightly while staring at Lei Zhenxiang's face. "We have already captured your Little Sister Feifei…."
Hearing his sister's name, Lei Zhenxiang abruptly opened his eyes. A golden lightning spark could be seen in the depth of his eyes. It represented the anger in his heart.
He turned to look at Lou Xiaojian and said coldly. "I have told you before that you shouldn't have touched her."
"So what? What are you going to do, huh?" Lou Xiaojian smiled mockingly. "Do you think you are still the palace master right now?… Honestly, you should blame yourself for this. If you aren't stubborn and give us the Divine Thunder, we won't bother to care about that rebellious girl."
He leaned forward slightly and looked straight into Lei Zhenxiang's eyes. "How is it? Do you want to continue?… Don't forget that she is technically not a member of the Divine Thunder Palace anymore. I cannot guarantee what they are going to do to her… Hehe. A younger sister of the former Divine Thunder Palace Master. I must say this title alone already gives excitement. Let alone those vigorous men."
Lei Zhenxiang's eyes flashed with boundless killing intent. He opened his mouth and said word by word coldly. "If she loses a single of her hair, I will make sure that all of you will die horribly… You know I am a man of my word."
Lou Xiaojian subconsciously leaned back out of fear. Although Lei Zhenxiang had no profound strength, his aura was still there. And Lou Xiaojian knew how ruthless this brother-in-law of his was, even though he looked harmless and upright.
Lou Xiaojian suppressed the fear in his heart and sneered. "Hehe. You will find out later."
He quickly stood up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he turned around and said. "I really want to know how she would feel when she knows that her brother that keeps saying he loves her, chooses to be stubborn further, disregarding her life and death… Ah, it must be a wonderful sight to see."
After that, he turned around and left with laughter.
His laughter echoed in Lei Zhenxiang's mind, and a trace of hesitation began to appear in his eyes. He had no way to confirm whether Lei Feifei had been captured by them for real, but it was highly possible. After all, as a palace master, he knew it wasn't difficult for the Divine Thunder Palace to search for someone. Especially Lei Feifei, who had practiced the Divine Thunder Art before.
He closed his eyes for a long time and muttered to himself. "I'm sorry, Feifei. I am really useless…."
Buzz—
All of a sudden, golden lightning sparks exploded within Lei Zhenxiang's consciousness. His entire body was instantly shrouded with golden flashes of lightning, and the seal within his body was immediately shattered.
Lei Zhenxiang had no idea what was going on, but after a few breathing times, his profound strength gradually returned to his peak.
Upon returning to his sense, he quickly looked into a small golden lightning sphere floating in his soul. This was the true inheritance of the Divine Thunder Palace, the Divine Thunder Spark.
Lei Zhenxiang was born with a powerful physique called Divine Thunder Physique, which was written in ancient records. This physique allowed him to resonate with the Divine Thunder Spark since he was young, and because of this, he was placed in a true successor position from then on.
Naturally, some people were jealous of him. Lei Yubai was one of them. He felt it was unfair and tried to oppose the previous palace master's decision countless times, but it was futile in the end.
Nevertheless, he didn't give up and waited until the previous palace master went to seclusion before starting the current plan of stripping the Divine Thunder Spark and Divine Thunder Physique from Lei Zhenxiang…
