Xiaoyu Town.
At the gate of the Lei Mansion in Red Gate Alley.
A few guards were standing at the gate.
Suddenly, a blue stream of light rushed over from afar.
The guards were shocked and were about to shout for reinforcements when the stream of light arrived in front of them.
It was Lei Jingyun who was riding a flying sword.
The servants were dumbfounded.
They had never seen such a scene before.
Riding a flying sword, wasn’t this the legendary immortal method?
Lei Jingyun glanced at them indifferently and said, “Is your Patriarch in the residence?”
The guards came back to their senses and hurriedly said, “Yes, is the immortal looking for our Patriarch?”
Lei Jingyun nodded lightly.
One of the guards quickly turned around and entered the Lei Mansion to report to Lei Feiche.
A moment later, a series of hurried footsteps sounded.
“Uncle!”
Lei Jingyun raised his eyebrows when he heard this shout.
He saw Lei Feiche’s surprised look.
“Uncle, you’re finally here!”
After saying this, Lei Feiche was about to kneel down.
Lei Jingyun hurriedly held him up and sized him up.
“Feiche, long time no see.”
“Yes, Uncle. Long time no see. My Dad misses you a lot too.”
“Oh right, please come in. The Lei Mansion is like home to you.”
After Lei Feiche said that, he turned his body sideways and made a welcoming gesture.
Lei Jingyun nodded and walked into the mansion.
When he entered the main hall, he saw an aged and skinny old man standing there.
Beside him, he was holding the hand of a child whose face was in a terrible state.
Lei Jingyun did not know this child, but this old man was his younger brother, Lei Jingfeng, whom he had not seen for many years.
When Lei Jingfeng saw him, he immediately came forward to welcome him.
However, Lei Jingfeng’s legs were not very agile, and he could not walk very steadily.
Seeing that he was about to fall because of his excitement, Lei Jingyun hurriedly took a few steps forward to support him.
“Jingyun!”
“Jingfeng!”
The two of them looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with tears.
Lei Jingyun looked at his younger brother in front of him and sighed again.
Lei Jingfeng was much younger than him, but now he looked to be 20 to 30 years older than him.
His spirit was weak, and he looked extremely old.
It was as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
“Jingfeng, why are you so much older?”
Lei Jingyun let out a long sigh.
Hearing this, Lei Jingfeng was stunned for a moment, then he smiled bitterly.
“It’s human nature to live, grow old, get sick, and die.”
“I’m almost eighty years old. Isn’t this how I should look?”
“You are looking younger and younger, Jingyun. You look fifty or sixty years old.”
“As expected of a cultivator. How enviable!”
“Jingfeng, don’t be too sad. Do take care.”
Lei Jingyun patted his shoulder.
He wanted to comfort his brother, but he didn’t know how to persuade him, so he quickly changed the topic.
“By the way, what did you say in the letter?”
Lei Feiche, who was behind him, heard Lei Jingyun’s question and quickly pulled Lei Dong to him.
He said with a sobbing tone, “Uncle, you have to stand up for us.”
“This is your grandnephew Lei Dong. Look at how badly he’s been beaten up!”
Lei Jingyun saw Lei Dong’s badly bruised head and was instantly enraged.
Although he had never seen Lei Dong before, he was considered his junior.
“What exactly is going on? Who is so ruthless!”
Hence, Lei Feiche hurriedly explained everything that had happened that day.
Of course, he hid the fact that Lei Dong had taken the initiative to stir up trouble.
He even portrayed Jiang Ping as an arrogant and ruthless person.
Hearing this, Lei Jingyun’s expression became more and more unsightly.
Lei Feiche secretly saw Lei Jingyun’s expression and knew that the time had come.
He then said with a sad face, “Uncle, you don’t know how difficult our Lei family’s situation is right now.”
“This Jiang family has joined forces with the Li family and is constantly suppressing our Lei family, trying to drive us out of Xiaoyu Town.”
“Although I can barely hold on, I can’t avoid their overt and underhanded attacks.”
“This matter was deliberately provoked by them. I’m afraid that they will soon make a serious move against our Lei family.”
“I’m useless against them. Please help us, Uncle!”
After Lei Jingyun heard this, he did not suspect anything and his face turned extremely gloomy.
He gritted his teeth and said sarcastically, “Great! What a great Jiang family, what a great Li family!”
“How dare they humiliate our Lei family. Do they really think that our Lei family is so helpless?”
Looking at his ferocious appearance, Lei Dong hurriedly shrank back behind Lei Feiche.
Lei Jingyun happened to notice Lei Dong’s actions and his expression softened a little.
He waved at Lei Dong. “Don’t be afraid. Come here. I will stand up for you.”
However, Lei Dong was extremely fearful of this unfamiliar old man.
Seeing this, Lei Feiche hurriedly carried Lei Dong and placed him in front of Lei Jingyun.
He smiled apologetically and said, “Uncle, please don’t take offense. This child was bullied miserably that day. Now, he is afraid of strangers.”
Lei Jingyun shook his head, indicating that he was not bothered by it.
Then, he took out a small white porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured out a pill from it.
“Lei Dong, take this pill. I guarantee that the injury on your face will disappear immediately.”
Lei Dong was originally afraid of Lei Jingyun, but when he heard this, his expression immediately changed.
He cried out in surprise, “Really?”
“Of course, eat it quickly.”
Lei Jingyun put the pill in Lei Dong’s hand.
Lei Dong glanced at Lei Feiche again and saw the latter nod his head.
Without any further hesitation, he swallowed the pill in one gulp.
For a moment, spiritual energy revolved around Lei Dong’s face.
Lei Dong felt as if a pair of extremely gentle hands were caressing his face.
A moment later, the spiritual energy dissipated, and Lei Dong’s face was perfectly fine again.
Lei Jingyun nodded his head in satisfaction.
Upon seeing this scene, Lei Feiche and the others were speechless.
Such a miraculous medicinal pill was indeed worthy of an immortal!
It was definitely not something that the doctors of the secular world could compare to.
With such a person standing up for them, Lei Feiche was confident that the Jiang family would be doomed.
“Uncle is indeed an immortal god. I admire you!”
“Uncle, please stand up for the Lei family!”
“Of course. Feiche, take me to the Jiang family now,” Lei Jingyun pinched his beard and said slowly.
Lei Feiche was immediately overjoyed and was about to agree.
However, he suddenly remembered the reaction of Patriarch Li that day and felt slightly uneasy.
He frowned and muttered, “Uncle, there might be more to this Jiang family than meets the eye.”
“Why don’t we investigate their background first and make preparations?”
Lei Jingyun smiled disdainfully. “They’re just an itinerant cultivation clan in a small mortal town. What background can they have?”
“Besides, so what if they really have a background?”
“Even in Fusheng City, no one dares to offend me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Jingyun’s eyes glinted, and his aura poured out.
A gust of wind instantly spread out from his body, causing Lei Feiche and the others to step back.
“Last stage of the core building realm. What do you think?” Lei Jingyun said nonchalantly.
Lei Feiche was immediately overjoyed and no longer had any doubts.
Even in Fusheng City, not many had reached the last stage of core building realm.
What were the chances that Jiang Ping’s background was even more extraordinary?
