The Qinglei Family’s members began to panic, and even Qing Lei’s eyes showed signs of regret and fear.
If he had known it would turn out like this, he would never have entered this bamboo grove.
Two days and nights passed quietly. Exhausted, Qing Lei and his men collapsed, sitting down in the bamboo grove.
Although the area was rich with spiritual power for cultivation, their spirits and minds had been severely tormented.
In this bamboo grove, although no one was attacking them, their deep-seated fears and anxieties were magnified, creating a sense of overwhelming despair and the belief that they would be trapped here forever.
Just when Qing Lei was on the verge of going mad, the closed courtyard door suddenly opened without warning.
A handsome young boy dressed in traditional attire emerged from within, yawning and stretching lazily as he walked out.
Halfway through his stretch, he noticed Qing Lei and his men trapped in the bamboo grove. He was initially stunned, then burst into laughter and called out, “Sister, come quickly! Another group of fools has been caught in the young master’s Nine-Gradient Illusion Array!”
An eighteen-year-old girl quickly walked out of the room. She had a round face, adorable eyes, and rosy cheeks, but her expression was cold and aloof.
Seeing someone finally emerge and realizing it was just two young people, Qing Lei and his men unleashed the anger they had been bottling up for the past two days.“Who are you people? Setting up an illusion array here—do you have any idea who we are? Trapping the head of the Qinglei Family—you must be tired of living. Once we regroup, we’ll come back and flatten this place!”
The boy in traditional attire burst into laughter upon hearing this. “Qinglei Family? My sister, have you ever heard of them? These days, even small fry from nowhere dare to threaten us.”
Qing Lei’s face turned pale and flushed. He took a step forward and said, “Who are you two? Why did you kill my son, protect the criminals against my Qinglei Family, and trap us here?”
The boy rolled his eyes. When he was about to speak, there was a faint vibration in the fabric of space here.
Immediately afterward, two figures appeared before Qing Lei and the rest.
One of them was a towering, muscular man dressed in black, standing at two meters tall.
The other was a pale, thin young man in white clothes sitting on a chair.
Plus, the chair was really odd—it was floating above the ground. As the man in black pushed it from behind, the chair and the young man in white moved forward slowly.
The young man in white wasn’t particularly handsome, and his body appeared thin and frail.
Yet, he exuded a peculiar aura that made people feel inexplicably comfortable and drawn to him. However, when they got closer, they felt an eerie, spine-chilling fear.
Qing Lei looked at the burly man, then gasped in shock.
This man’s cultivation level was far beyond the Void Darkness Stage. When Qing Lei merely met his eyes, he felt an overwhelming pressure that left him without even the slightest strength to resist.
When Qing Lei’s gaze shifted to the young man in white, he first felt puzzled. His eyes then slowly moved to the surrounding purple-heart green bamboo. His pupils contracted violently, revealing an expression of sheer disbelief and terror.
“Family master, these arrogant fools don’t respect the Qinglei Family at all. Let’s go in and teach them a lesson.”
“Shut up!” Qing Lei yelled, delivering a fierce slap that sent his subordinate flying and crashing to the ground.
