Colored Glass Catacombs.
"Why hasn't City Lord Lei come in yet?"
Zhang Zhengping was displeased. "Elder Mo, go and take a look. Report back immediately if there's any news!"
"Yes!"
The powerhouse who informed Lei Xinghe had arrived at the Colored Glass Holy City's exit was knocking on the door here with a specific password.
The door was also made of black iron. At the same time, it was engraved with a large number of runes. This door's defense was extremely strong.
Ten seconds passed. The door did not open.
Elder Mo furrowed his brows and knocked on the door once more.
However, he waited for half a minute. There was still no response. The door did not open either!
"Something's wrong."
Elder Mo's expression was solemn.
There must be someone guarding outside the door. Moreover, there was more than one. Even if one of them was slacking off and asleep, it was impossible for both of them to be asleep!
"Is anyone there? Open the door!"
Elder Mo shouted. The door was thick, but his voice could still be heard inside.
There were two powerhouses inside, but they did not move. One of them was Lei Xinghe's subordinate.
"Palace Lord, Elder Gu, something's wrong."
Elder Mo hurried to Zhang Zhengping's side.
"What's wrong?"
"Palace Lord, the door is locked. We can't open it!"
Zhang Zhengping's expression changed. He, the Palace Lord, was inside. The Colored Glass Catacombs' door was locked and could not be opened. This was a very serious problem.
"Elder Gu, what's the situation?"
Zhang Zhengping looked at the old man beside him. The one guarding the door was his subordinate.
"Palace Lord, I don't know either. Let's go and take a look."
Elder Gu's expression was solemn. They left quickly and rushed to the exit. Elder Gu went forward and personally knocked on the password to open the door.
"Open the door. I'm Gu Yongnian!"
Elder Gu said in a low voice. His voice could be heard inside.
"Elder Gu, I'm Luo Jun."
A voice came from the other side of the door. Gu Yongnian heaved a sigh of relief. Luo Jun was his subordinate, and he was someone he trusted very much.
"Luo Jun, what's the situation? Why isn't the door open? There's no problem here."
Luo Jun said, "Elder Gu, City Lord Lei has broken through to 8-star. City Lord Lei ordered the door to be locked temporarily. He said that when the door is opened, he will personally apologize to you.
Zhang Zhengping's expression changed.
Lei Xinghe actually broke through to the Eighth Stage, then Lei Xinghe's current strength must be more powerful than his!
Calling Lei Xinghe over at this time, Zhang Zhengping knew that Lei Xinghe would definitely have objections. But he wasn't worried before because his strength was about the same as Lei Xinghe's. He was also the Palace Master of the Glaze Heavenly Palace, so his status was still higher than Lei Xinghe's.
Now, the situation was not good.
When everyone's strength was the same, Zhang Zhengping could use some methods to suppress Lei Xinghe, but now that Lei Xinghe's strength exceeded his, the consequences of suppressing Lei Xinghe might be severe.
Gu Yongnian was silent. He knew that the situation was not that serious. He even knew why the problem had occurred.
Gu Yongnian actually had some opinions about Zhang Zhengping's approach.
Since Lei Xinghe had broken through, it was normal for him to have such a rebound.
"Where is City Lord Lei?"
Zhang Zhengping said solemnly.
"Palace Lord, the City Lord is not here. The City Lord has said that he has no intention of becoming the Palace Lord of the Glaze Heavenly Palace. If the Glaze Heavenly Palace cannot accommodate him, he can leave at that time. But Palace Lord, please stay here quietly for a few days and wait for the Young City Lord and the others to come out."
The one who spoke was Lei Xinghe's subordinate.
Zhang Zhengping's expression was ugly. Although that was what he said, who knew what was going on outside? Who knew if Lei Xinghe would seize power?
"Elder Gu, what do you mean?"
Zhang Zhengping looked at Gu Yongnian.
Gu Yongnian frowned. "Palace Lord, even if we use all our strength and consume many treasures, we may not be able to force open this door. Moreover, if we open it, the monsters in the Glaze Catacombs may come out. We can only wait!"
Zhang Zhengping's eyes flashed. "Elder Gu, I want to ask your opinion on City Lord Lei."
"Palace Lord, I will not support City Lord Lei in seizing the position of Palace Lord."
Gu Yongnian said cautiously.
Zhang Zhengping nodded lightly. He understood what Gu Yongnian meant. Although he did not support Lei Xinghe's seizing the position of Palace Lord, he would not go against Lei Xinghe now that he had broken through to Rank-8.
"Palace Lord, there's something I don't know if I should say."
"Elder Gu, feel free to say it."
"Palace Lord, City Lord Lei's talent is very strong. Palace Lord, you are now stuck at Rank-8 Level Two. However, City Lord Lei may not stop there!"
Zhang Zhengping was a little depressed. This was the truth.
"Palace Lord, it's normal for City Lord Lei to be angry now that you asked him to come over. When Lei Zhan and the rest come out, City Lord Lei's anger should have subsided. Palace Lord, your position should not be a problem. City Lord Lei has feelings for the Glaze Catacombs. He would not wish for the Glaze Catacombs to be torn apart."
Zhang Zhengping was angry. However, he could only take a deep breath and suppress the anger in his heart.
What else could he do?
Settle the score with Lei Xinghe?
Since Lei Xinghe had broken through, he might not be able to defeat two of them.
Killing him was even more impossible!
If he chased Lei Xinghe away, let's not talk about whether he could do it.
Even if he did, when Lei Xinghe returned with stronger strength, what would he, Zhang Zhengping, do?
"Elder Gu is right."
Zhang Zhengping nodded.
…
Lei Xinghe brought a group of people and rushed to the secret realm's exit. However, they did not show themselves. If they did, the other experts might notice something was wrong.
When the Giant Flame Sect saw them coming, they might realize that Zhang Zhengping had failed. They might pay a higher price to gather more experts.
Zhang Qinglan, on the other hand, showed herself.
Duanmu Yan and the rest were not surprised by Zhang Qinglan's appearance. If Zhang Zhengping had dragged Lei Xinghe into the Glaze Catacombs, it was normal for Zhang Qinglan to come here. The Glaze Catacombs needed top experts to be in charge.
In the past, Zhang Qinglan was more inclined towards Zhang Zhengping.
After all, Zhang Zhengping was the Palace Lord of the Glaze Catacombs.
One day, two days …
Time continued to pass. The time Qin Yang and the rest spent inside had exceeded Duanmu Yan and the rest's expectations. Jin Hongxu's expression was getting worse by the day.
Jin Hongxu was not worried about Qin Yang and the rest.
However, Lei Zhan was still inside.
They could kill Qin Yang, but they definitely couldn't kill Lei Zhan.
When Jin Hongxu came out, Lei Zhan's cultivation was much higher than his. Now that they had been inside for such a long time, who knew how big the gap would be.
Inside the secret realm …
Lei Zhan wasn't as comfortable as Jin Hongxu thought.
With the Chasing Sun Divine Treasure, Lei Zhan's cultivation increased rapidly. However, he realized that Xiao Junwan and the rest were not any slower than him!
In his peak condition, Lei Zhan could defeat Xiao Junwan. However, he still couldn't defeat Hua Wanrou, Luo Lingna, and Wei Shiyun.
Lei Zhan had fought with them in his peak condition before, but all of them were defeated!
He had called her sister many times.
