Chapter 562 Lei Qinghai (1/2)

Amidst the mountain forest.

There were currently numerous figures within the forest, the powerful Genesis Qi undulations pulsing from their bodies showing that they were no weaklings. They would occasionally lift their heads to look at the nearby mountain top, where concentrated tri-color light could be seen

At the sight of the tri-color light, greed appeared in the eyes of these individuals.

However, they would reluctantly withdraw their gazes and turn towards the center of the forest, where dozens of figures could be seen surrounding one particular figure like stars around the moon.

It was a smiling young man in silver robes that gave off an extraordinary presence, while thunder faintly rumbled from his body.

Hushed voices conversed amidst the mountain forest, “That’s Lie Qinghai, one of the three thunder generals of the Little Thunder Gate. He’s extremely strong, and I’ve heard he recently advanced to the ninth layer Alpha-Origin stage, making him no weaker than any of the chief disciples from the six overlord sects. With him here, we’ll definitely be able to vie with the Cangxuan Sect.”

The other figures silently nodded. The three thunder generals of the Little Thunder Gate were the most outstanding trio amongst their numerous disciples, and only those who had overcome repeated challenges would be able to take this title. As one of the thunder generals, Lei Qinghai was certainly a very capable individual.

“Everyone…”

The young man in a silver robe looked over at this moment, a faint rumble accompanying his voice as it rang out beside everyone’s ears.

“We’ve already investigated the Cangxuan Sect disciples on the mountain, and discovered that the one leading them is the chief disciple of the Cangxuan Sect’s Saint Genesis Peak, Zhou Yuan.”

“Saint Genesis Peak?” Shock appeared in the eyes of several individuals.

“Isn’t Saint Genesis Peak the weakest peak in the Cangxuan Sect? I can’t believe they managed to produce a chief disciple.” It was clear that the people here had some knowledge about the current situation in the Cangxuan Sect.

“Zhou Yuan is likely a newly promoted chief disciple, and though we currently do not know how strong he is, as someone who managed to become a chief disciple of the Cangxuan Sect, he should be pretty capable.”

“Hehe, no matter how capable the chief disciple of Saint Genesis Peak is, how can he possibly compare to brother Lei? Given brother Lei’s strength, he will likely be one of the stronger ones even when placed amidst the seven chief disciples of the Cangxuan Sect. That Saint Genesis Peak chief disciple, on the other hand, should be the weakest of the bunch.”

The others agreed one after another. After hearing that the chief disciple leading the group on the mountain top was from the weakest Saint Genesis Peak, everyone clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

They had been afraid of encountering the more famous chief disciples, such as the one from the Cangxuan Peak or Sword Cometh Peak, because that would be very troublesome indeed.

Lei Qinghai chuckled as he waved his hand. Two silver balls could be seen slowly spinning in his hand, as they flickered with lightning. “Although Saint Genesis Peak is the weakest, we should not underestimate them too much.”

Though he said so, a sliver of disagreement flashed across his eyes. He was more familiar than most with regards to the chief disciples and Chosens of the Cangxuan Sect, but he had never heard of a chief disciple called Zhou Yuan. The latter was obviously a newcomer, and Lei Qinghai felt that he had nothing to fear from such an individual.

“Since everyone has placed their face in the Little Thunder Gate, I shall represent everyone to go meet chief disciple Zhou Yuan later. If he agrees to take a step back and allow us to harvest Mythic Genesis essence on the mountain, we will naturally not be too overbearing.” Said Lei Qinghai with a smile.

“What if chief disciple Zhou Yuan does not agree?” Asked someone in a rather fierce tone.

Lei Qinghai softly chuckled. “That chief disciple will be far too naive if he believes the Cangxuan Sect’s name will be able to scare everyone away. If that happens, we’ll have no choice but to properly school him.”

As he spoke, an alarming Genesis Qi pressure slowly spread from his body, causing the hearts of the many individuals present to shiver. This thunder general of the Little Thunder Gate was indeed a very powerful practitioner.

Of course, they knew that Lei Qinghai was flexing his muscles to them.

For a time, the crowd voiced their approval, showing that they would regard Lei Qinghai as their leader.

Li Qinghai smiled in a relaxed manner when he saw this. “You guys will wait here for my signal. If words don’t work, we’ll have no choice but to use force. I hope that the chief disciple of Saint Genesis Peak will not be foolish.”

After finishing, his figure soared into the sky like a thunderbolt, appearing in front of the mountain as he cupped his fists together and said in a loud voice, “Lei Qinghai of the Little Thunder Gate requests to meet chief disciple Zhou Yuan.”

His voice was akin to thunder as it rumbled across the area.

On the mountain top, Zhou Yuan was in the midst of harvesting Mythic Genesis essence. His lightly shut eyes opened, and looked towards the figure that glowed with lightning in the sky. “The Little Thunder Gate huh?”

He had naturally heard of this rather famous sect of the Shengzhou Continent.

Gu Hongyi said from the said, “Many factions have gathered at the foot of the mountain, and Lei Qinghai has already managed to unite them, making them a substantial threat.”

“Looks like our visitors aren’t friendly.” Zhou Yuan softly chuckled. Soon after, his voice rang out, “Let him come and see what he wants.”

The Cangxuan Sect disciples that were blocking the way withdrew when they heard this. Lightning flashed in the sky, as a figure appeared in front of Zhou Yuan. The former’s arrogant manner showed that he was unafraid even under the tiger-like gazes of the many Cangxuan Sect disciples.

“Is this distinguished one the chief disciple of Saint Genesis Peak?” Lei Qinghan’s gaze immediately locked onto Zhou Yuan, but soon began to frown. From what the former could sense, Zhou Yuan appeared to only be at the seventh layer.

Was the chief disciple of Saint Genesis Peak really so weak?
