Chapter 332: Do You Think You Can Kill in My Presence?
Hun Clan spies are always shameless.
Gu Fei had already anticipated this kind of retaliation, but he wasn't concerned. He had no interest in explaining anything to the people of the Lei Clan.
However, from Lei Dong's words, Gu Fei could sense that he had chosen to trust him.
"Miss Lei, it's likely that your real grandfather has long since passed away. The person pretending to be him in front of us is the Hun Clan spy we've been searching for," he said calmly as he turned to Lei Zhu Zhu.
His words hit her like a hammer, shaking her to her core. She stared in disbelief at the "grandfather" behind her, her eyes filled with confusion and pain. For a moment, she was lost in thought.
Perhaps this was just too much for her to process.
He felt somewhat helpless about this. Around them, the Lei Clan members were equally stunned, looking at Lei Chang with shock and disbelief.
"I've already uncovered the truth. The rest is up to you," he said indifferently, ignoring the reactions of those around him.
"Rest assured, if he really is a spy, I'll get to the bottom of it," Lei Dong replied with a heavy expression, his gaze turning serious.
Upon hearing these words, a trace of panic flashed across Lei Chang's deeply wrinkled face. He knew very well that once he was investigated, his identity would inevitably be exposed.
At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind- escape!
Just as everyone expected him to surrender, the seemingly frail old man suddenly moved with astonishing speed. He grabbed Lei Zhu Zhu in front of him, his arm locking around her throat like a vice. eav
She, who had been in shock and unresponsive, had no time to react.
"Nobody move! Anyone comes closer, and I'll crush her throat!" he shouted menacingly. His once kindly face now twisted into something vicious and malevolent.
The sudden turn of events left everyone in shock.
Her face turned pale as she struggled to breathe. Her hands clawed uselessly at his arm, unable to break free.
"Let me go, or prepare to collect her body!" Lei Chang sneered, issuing his threat.
Lei Zhu Zhu finally realized the true nature of her "grandfather." As she stared at his sinister expression, her heart was filled with regret and rage.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Y-You're not my grandfather!" she choked out the words, her eyes brimming with tears. Now, everyone in the Lei Clan believed Gu Fei's words. The clan members glared at Lei Chang in fury, but none dared to make a move for fear of endangering her.
He was surrounded, yet he remained calm. Despite being a Four-Star Dou Saint, he knew he couldn't escape the Lei Realm. But with a hostage, he still had a slim chance!
With Lei Ying absent, he could definetly get away!
"You realized it too late! Your grandfather was killed by me years ago while traveling. I've taken over his body and have been hiding among you ever since, and none of you even noticed!" He laughed wickedly.
Hearing this cruel truth, her tears flowed freely. Her heart was broken with grief, but more than that, she felt hatred towards the man who had murdered her grandfather.
"Don't worry about me. Just make sure he dies!" she suddenly shouted.
Lei Chang hadn't expected her to be so strong-willed, and for a moment, he was thrown off.
"Now, everything is clear," Gu Fei said calmly in the tense moment.
His gaze turned to Lei Dong, seemingly waiting for his response.
"We were wrong before, we shouldn't have doubted brother's judgment," Lei Dong sighed and bowed slightly to him.
"How should we handle this?" he asked, hesitating slightly.
"What else? Do you plan to let this young girl die here?" Gu Fei's lips curled into a cold smile.
Upon hearing these words, Lei Chang's face lit up with a smug grin.
Right now, he was in control. As long as he pushed hard enough, he could escape unscathed.
However, Gu Fei's next words were like a bucket of ice water, dousing his hopes.
"Do you really think you can kill anyone in front of me?"
His tone was calm, but it carried an overwhelming sense of confidence.
As soon as the words left his mouth, a terrifying aura erupted from within him.
In an instant, the sky and earth changed color! The entire realm seemed to tremble under the pressure of this aura. The leaves of countless silver trees shook violently, making crackling sounds.
In the distance, thunder rumbled continuously as lightning danced wildly across the mountains.
The scene was apocalyptic!
Gu Fei's hair floated in the air without wind, his robes flapping with an ominous sound. He stood like the embodiment of the very laws of heaven and earth.
His deep, starry eyes glinted with sharp, penetrating light, as if capable of seeing through all illusions.
Lei Chang was overwhelmed by fear rising from the very depths of his soul. His frail body trembled uncontrollably, cold sweat forming on his forehead.
This pressure!
It nearly shattered his worldview.
Facing him, Lei Chang couldn't even comprehend the vast gap in strength between them.
Just as he was consumed with terror, Gu Fei's figure suddenly disappeared from sight.
In the next moment, he felt a shock run through his body as all his spiritual energy was instantly sealed. It felt like even his soul was spinning in dizziness.
When Lei Chang regained his senses, he found himself kneeling on one knee, completely immobilized.
Lei Zhu Zhu was already safe, shielded behind Lei Dong.
The Lei Clan members stood in stunned silence, unable to grasp what had just occurred.
They hadn't even seen how Gu Fei had moved, yet in the blink of an eye, the hostage-taker had been subdued.
The difference between an Eight-Star and a Four-Star Dou Saint was far beyond what Lei Chang had imagined.
In front of him, he was nothing more than an ant, incapable of even the slightest resistance. Lei Dong, watching Lei Chang kneeling helplessly, was filled with awe. Even he hadn't been able to see Gu Fei's movements. This level of power was beyond anything he had ever known.
In fact, at this moment, he felt a pang of bitterness.
All his years of hard work seemed like a joke in front of his overwhelming strength.
"Thank you brother, for your assistance!" Lei Dong clasped his hands in gratitude, his voice filled with admiration.
The Lei Clan members, having witnessed how easily he had dealt with Lei Chang, were left speechless with astonishment.
"He is truly inhuman!" Lei Dong muttered under his breath. His heart was in turmoil, and he struggled to remain composed.
A four-Star Dou Saint, would have been a formidable opponent even for him, yet Gu Fei had subdued him effortlessly in a mere moment.
It was clear- they were on completely different levels!
