Chapter 724 Jiang Lei Jun (1/2)

Above Blackwater.

The experts of the various sects watched this scene in astonishment. Who would have thought that before the many sects could even begin competing for the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, the Cangxuan Sect would already put on such a thrilling show....

The dramatic ups and downs of the story made even the many experts present tense up in anticipation.

However, several individuals cast their gazes towards the currently smiling palace master Shen Yuan. It appeared that the fall of patriarch Cang Xuan had been a seamless plot orchestrated by the Sacred Palace.

In the mysterious domain, Zhou Yuan’s face was likewise stretched taunt. The drastic turn of events had also impacted him greatly.

Moments ago, he had nearly believed that the death of patriarch Cang Xuan was connected to peak master Lianyi, but now, it seemed that both peak master Lianyi and Ling Jun were merely being used.

The person who was pulling the strings in secret was unexpectedly peak master Lei Jun!

Zhou Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Peak master Lei Jun occupied a peak master position within the Cangxuan sect, but had the weakest presence among the peak masters. In fact, Zhou Yuan barely had any contact with him since joining the Cangxuan Sect.

From what Zhou Yuan could remember of him, peak master Lei Jun was the never smiling head of punishment in the sect whom many disciples both respected and feared him. Peak master Lei Jun had always maintained neutrality in the many affairs of the sect. In essence, he was a high ranking senior member of the sect.

Sect master Qing Yang would even seek him out for advice at times.

Who could have thought that this very same individual who seemed to barely have any presence at all would be the culprit that had pushed patriarch Cang Xuan to his death!

Zhou Yuan was not the only one in disbelief, even peak master Lianyi and others all stared at peak master Lei Jun in anger and confusion.

Sect master Qing Yang glared at peak master Lei Jun, whose earlier attempt to attack old man Bai Mei had been thwarted by Old Xuan and asked, “Wasn’t the Hidden Scriptures House managed by teacher uncle Lei Jun back then?

“Only you who was in charge of the Hidden Scriptures House could guide little junior sister to see what you wanted her to see...even without her realising.

“You, why did you do such a thing?

“Has master ever treated you badly?!”

Peak master Lei Jun’s face remained devoid of expression under their furious gazes. He glanced at old Xuan and gave a faint smile. “Cangxuan was very nice to me.

“But, I wasn’t happy....”

“He saw me as an elder brother and respected me. In turn, I protected him and occasionally gave him cultivation resources.

“But then, everything began to change. He gradually grew and finally bloomed, revealing his dazzling brilliance as he became a top expert of the world. At that time, I was far behind him, and could only look at his back from a distance.

“Nobody remembered me anymore, and would even laugh and mock me. ‘A person like you was qualified to be his big brother?

“Later on, he founded the Cangxuan Sect, and the huge gap between us grew even wider. But he invited me to the Cangxuan Sect and thus I became peak master Lei Jun...

“But within the Cangxuan Sect, no one could compare to his dazzling brilliance. The entire world would always look at him with respect, the same way he once looked at me before. But now, I had become the him of the past.

“Everyone said that I wouldn't have become a peak master of the Cangxuan Sect if not for his kindness.

“I also tried really hard to prove myself, but....he was too dazzling.
