Lei Family Residence
Because Chu Xingyun had been soaked in his blood essence, his recovery ability was far superior to that of an ordinary person. In just one day and one night, most of his injuries had healed, and he had completely regained his mobility.
"Follow behind me and don't act rashly. If we get separated, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to save you." Chu Xingyun turned his head and said to Xue Qingwu. Xue Qingwu frowned. Couldn't this guy's tone be nicer?
Chu Xingyun didn't pay much attention to him. He took a step forward and began to identify his position.
Chu Xingyun had seen this Bewildering Formation in his previous life. It was called the Heaven Lock Bewildering Formation. It had a total of 18 Formation Cores and could emit endless fog, making it impossible for people to find their location.
It was extremely difficult to forcefully break this formation. However, the Dao of Formations was most particular about the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth.
Although Chu Xingyun did not have much understanding towards formations, he was extremely proficient in the five elements of heaven and earth. Walking out of this Heaven Lock Bewildering Fog Formation was naturally not a problem.
After walking for an hour, they finally walked out of the fog. However, the moment they walked out, they were shocked by the scene before their eyes. There was actually a mansion in front of them.
Chu Xingyun's gaze swept over the area. This mansion occupied an extremely large area, and there were many buildings within. It was even larger than some of the clans in the Royal Capital. However, this mansion seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, and there was no longer any grandeur to it.
"Let's go in and have a look." Chu Xingyun pulled out his Sky Slashing Sword, and his eyes darkened slightly. He could feel that the faintly discernible guiding force was being emitted from this mansion.
The two of them walked side by side and slowly entered the mansion.
At this moment, they realized that the entire mansion seemed to have been abandoned for a long time. There were many hideous claw marks on the walls, the floor, and even the eaves, as if it had been attacked by spirit beasts.
"This mansion is located in the heart of the Dense Fog Forest. It is natural for it to be attacked by spiritual beasts. It is impossible to stay here for long." Xue Qingwu expressed her opinion. Chu Xingyun did not reply. He looked around carefully.
The two of them walked into the inner hall, and their gazes froze.
In the open space in front of them, there were dozens of corpses scattered all over the ground. These corpses were shattered, and the atmosphere of the entire place was somewhat gloomy and cold.
"These people, they were not killed by spirit beasts." Chu Xingyun pointed, and there was actually a corpse....... when the wind, the corpse's's bones................
Chu Xingyun walked over and took the storage ring from the corpse. There were not many things inside, and most of them were scrolls that recorded all sorts of things about the Driftcloud Empire.
Xue Qingwu also stepped forward to take a look. Her expression suddenly became serious as she said in surprise, "This person is actually Lei Yongyuan. Could this be the Thunder Residence?"
"You know him?" Chu Xingyun asked curiously.
Xue Qingwu nodded. "Lei Yongyuan was a famous Marquis of the Liuyun Dynasty. He was kind and loved his people like his own children. He was deeply loved by the people. However, rumour has it that 16 years ago, he had a disagreement with the radical faction of the dynasty. In a fit of anger, he resigned from his Marquis position and no longer managed the affairs of the dynasty."
"Who would have thought that this was the Thunder Mansion. The entire Thunder Mansion had been wiped out. No wonder there was no news of the Thunder Mansion for the past 16 years."
"16 years ago!"
Chu Xingyun grasped this word and asked Xue Qingwu. "After Lei Yongyuan resigned from his Marquis position, the Lei Family was wiped out. 16 years ago, did something big happen in the Liuyun Dynasty? Also, what do you mean by the radicals you mentioned just now? "
After interacting with Chu Xing Yun, Xue Qing Wu felt that apart from being mysterious, Chu Xing Yun also had a calm and indifferent temperament. Now that he was so anxious, this was the first time she saw him.
"16 years ago, it was too long ago. I don't have much memory. Moreover, Lei Yongyuan was a Marquis. The things he knew must be secrets of the Liuyun Dynasty. It is difficult for outsiders to know."
Xue Qingwu paused for a moment and continued, "As for the radical faction, it's a large faction in the Driftcloud Empire. They act in a barbaric and overbearing manner, and for the sake of pursuing the path of strength, they flatter the other empires while disregarding their own citizens. Their methods are extremely despicable.
At this point, Xue Qingwu was extremely angry.
But soon, she sighed and said helplessly, "However, there are many forces in the Imperial City that rely on the radical faction. The radical faction is huge and has gradually taken control of the power. Even the position of the royal family has become awkward."
"Oh right, as far as I know, the Yunmeng Martial House also belongs to the radical faction." Xue Qingwu added. Chu Xingyun narrowed his eyes and thought.
16 years ago, the Yunmeng Martial House suddenly took action and kidnapped Chu Xingyun's biological parents.
At the same time, the Marquis Lei Yongyuan's entire family was wiped out. The radical faction gradually took control of the dynasty.
These two incidents happened too strangely. Chu Xingyun had an inexplicable premonition that the incident back then was related to the radical faction.
However, Chu Xingyun did not continue to think about it. He immediately buried these thoughts in the depths of his heart.
Now that he had come to the Imperial City, the most important thing was to increase his strength.
Only by becoming stronger would it be more convenient to investigate the incident back then. As for the relationship between the radical faction and the Yunmeng Martial House, he had already thought of a way to understand it.
The two of them continued to go deeper into the Thunder Mansion. When they reached the deepest part, a scorching hot air suddenly whistled, making them feel incomparably hot. Even their Spiritual Seas were rolling.
"Han Xue!" Xue Qingwu spat out a word. With her as the center, snowflakes immediately fell within a radius of five meters. The snowflakes emitted a cold air, gradually dispersing the scorching hot air.
Chu Xingyun turned his head and looked at the flying snow shadow above Xue Qingwu's head.
This flying snow shadow was Xue Qingwu's Wu Ling. It was called Han Xue Wu Ling and was ranked at the fifth grade.
This kind of Wu Ling was neither Wu Ling nor Wu Ling of Beasts. It was a rather rare natural Wu Ling.
The so-called natural Wu Ling did not have a specific form. It could be a gust of wind or a ball of fire. Under control, it could cause a great change in the heavens and earth.
Xue Qingwu had the Han Xue Wu Ling, so she could freely control the flying snow. Even if it was hot in June, she could still cause snow to fall and completely freeze the ground.
"The scorching hot air is coming from the front. We must be careful." Xue Qingwu said to Chu Xingyun. She slowed down her pace and slowly approached the main hall in front of them.
Boom!
Xue Qingwu smashed the door of the main hall with a palm. The two of them looked forward and found that in the center of the main hall, there was a huge red cauldron.
