Chapter 18: Departure

Chapter 18: Departure

"Whether you are trying to unravel the poison on Chen'er's body, or to contact the people behind Mo Hanyi, I advise you not to let them go alone, Mo Hanyi's strength and cultivation are already on par with you, and Li Qing alone is not an opponent at all", Xue Ning knew that she couldn't persuade Lei Bang, who had already made up her mind, but she still couldn't help but persuade her.

"I've thought about this too, but the current situation doesn't allow me to do this," Lei Bang stopped talking, and then whispered: "Chen'er has grown up, and the next thing can only be faced by himself"

"Then you're just watching them die?"

"Now the gates of the Heavenly Domain are ready to move, with my current cultivation, I can no longer sit in the first position of the six gates, if Chen'er takes over the Lei family in his current state, the gates of the Heavenly Domain will trample the Lei family under their feet sooner or later, I can't watch the hundred-year-old Thunder Gate be lost in my hands"

"Is it because of this that they can end their lives?"

"Who said that they would definitely die on this trip, now only by letting them go out of the Lei family can they get better experience and improve their ability to cultivate", speaking of this, Lei Bang shook his head, sighed, looked up at the starlight in the distance, and said slowly: "Over the years, I have been reluctant to let Li Qing walk out of the door of the Lei family, so today's situation will appear, so I don't want to let Chen'er do the same, this time to go to Qingyun Mountain, is the best test and tempering for them"

Looking at the complicated expression on Lei Hong's face, Xue Ning didn't say anything more, over the years, Li Qing has been following Lei Hong's side, and has never seen the danger outside, although he is talented and very hard-working, but his cultivation is very slow to improve, this time to Qingyun Mountain, maybe it is really the best experience for him.

"No matter what you do, I believe you are right, you rest early", Xue Ning looked at Lei Hong's back and whispered, then turned around and walked towards the house, and the figure gradually disappeared into the bamboo forest.

Lei Hong looked at the brightest star in the sky, he didn't know if it was the right choice for him to do this, but the current situation no longer allowed him to hesitate too much.

The wind blew Lei Hong's worried face, Lei Bang slowly closed his eyes, and the words of the man in black he was chasing today kept echoing in his mind, "The future of the Thunder Gate will not be on you after all, it's time to let go."

The early morning sun, gentle with a hint of coolness, the dew on the leaves, under the light of the light, crystal clear, a few early birds, in the woods 'chirping' non-stop, a bird standing among the branches, curiously staring at the gradually approaching figure, suddenly flapping its wings, flying towards the blue sky and white clouds.

"It's a long way, you must be careful"

"Knowing Daddy, don't worry, when I come back from Qingyun Mountain, I will definitely give you a surprise", Qing'er walked in front happily, heard Lei Bang's words, turned to look at Lei Bang, and said excitedly.

"Yes, please rest assured, I will definitely protect the safety of the two of them", Li Qing replied with his sword behind his back and bent down respectfully.

"Li Qing, your cultivation ranks very high among the disciples of the Lei family, but you have to remember that the outside world is more cruel than you think."

"Remembered in vain"

Lei Hong smiled slightly, walked to Li Qing's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said slowly: "Over the years, I have been restricting you to my side, and now is the time, let you do what you want to do, go"

"Yes, Door Master"

Lei Bang stood at the door, watching their gradually disappearing figures, for a long time, before turning around and walking towards the courtyard, until before leaving, Lei Wuchen never said a word to him, but seeing Lei Wuchen's resolute face, Lei Hong's heart calmed down a little, because he knew that Lei Wuchen would definitely understand what he meant.

Stepping out of Jiuzhou City, Qing'er was like a bird that had just come out of the cage, running happily at the front, because this was the first time she had left the Lei family and went to an unknown place, and she was looking forward to what would happen and what she would meet along the way.

"Senior brother, you have a gloomy face all the way, are you worried that Mo Han will come to us later?", Lei Wuchen glanced at Li Qing who was walking beside him, and asked.

"Mo Hanyi's current cultivation is far above mine, I don't know what his purpose is, but if he comes to us, you just keep running, and leave the rest to me."

Hearing Li Qing's words, Qing'er stopped, turned around and said, "Although we can't beat that Mo Hanyi, we will never leave you alone, senior brother."

"This is a matter between me and him, it has nothing to do with you, this time I went to Qingyun Mountain, I just want to end this grudge with him", Li Qing looked up at the mountains and forests in the distance, and said in a low voice.

Lei Wuchen didn't ask anything more, because he knew that over the years, this matter had been suppressed in Li Qing's heart.

The three of them kept walking forward in this silent atmosphere, the noon sun was particularly hot, Qing'er wiped the sweat beads on her face, looked up at the long road in the distance, and shook her head, the previous joy had long since disappeared.

"Senior brother, why didn't you agree with Daddy at that time, let us bring a few more disciples out together?", Qing'er took the kettle handed by Li Qing and asked puzzledly.

"The road to Qingyun Mountain is long, and it is inconvenient to pass through many areas"

"It turned out to be because of this, but it's just the three of us, it's too tiring to carry so much dry food and a kettle", Qing'er handed the kettle back to Li Qing, sighed, and said.

"Didn't you say that you want to surprise your father when you come back from Qingyun Mountain? It's only been a long day's walk, and you shout that you're tired", Li Qing raised his head and drank the water in the kettle, looked at Qing'er's complaining expression, and sneered.

"I'm not tired", Qing'er hurriedly retorted, turned her head to look at Lei Wuchen next to her, and asked suspiciously: "Lei Wuchen, what are you doing there?"

Lei Wuchen looked back at Qing'er who walked to his side, did not answer, lowered his head and continued to look at the map in his hand, for a long time, before he got up and said to Li Qing: "Senior brother, at our current speed, we can pass through this mountain forest before dark."

"Alright, pack your bags and let's move on"

"It's so fast, I haven't rested yet," Qing'er said reluctantly.

"After dark, there will definitely be strange beasts in this mountain forest, for the sake of safety, we had better not spend the night in the mountains and forests", Li Qing carried the kettle and dry food on his back, held the sword in his right hand, and walked forward.

"If you want to cook dinner for strange beasts, just continue to rest here", Lei Wuchen smiled lightly, scaring Qing'er.

Hearing the word strange beast, Qing'er was instantly shocked in her heart, and a monster with a human head and a beast body, teeth and claws immediately appeared in her mind, although she had never seen a strange beast, but there was still an inexplicable fear in her heart, and she hurriedly stood up and chased after Lei Wuchen and the others.
