Chapter 5609: Calm down

Ji Dali threw a pill to Lei Ao and patted his head.

Lei Ao looked at the elixir in his hand, and then with a stiff face, he avoided Ji Dali's palm that was making trouble on his head.

The look of a young adult on his face aroused Ji Dali's laughter again.

Lei Ao, on the other hand, was sitting quietly on the ground, swallowing the elixir and preparing to activate his magic power to refine it.

However, he discovered that the elixir turned directly into pure spiritual energy, flowing into his spiritual veins to make up for the losses caused by these days.

However, in just a cup of tea, Lei Ao had completely recovered from the loss of his spiritual veins caused by being chased in the past few days.

Slowly opening his eyes, before Lei Ao could be surprised by his recovery, he found a circle of people standing in front of him.

Xuanyuan Li and Ji Dali stood on both sides, while Zhang Yifeng was facing Lei Ao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

"You, what are you going to do?"

"It is impossible for me to hand over the key to the imperial treasury to you!"

Lei Ao shouted nervously, feeling in his heart that he might have boarded the wrong pirate ship.

But now that he was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside, it was impossible for Lei Ao to escape.

"You kid, didn't I say it before? Why wait until now if I want to do something to you?"

"Not to mention healing your injuries and giving you a chance to escape."

Zhang Yifeng shook his head and said to Lei Ao with a calm expression.

After hearing this, the nervousness on Lei Ao's face was slightly reduced.

After all, he had seen Zhang Yifeng's strength before, and the elegant young man in front of him definitely had the ability to kill him in an instant.

Perhaps it was due to the pursuit experience in the past few days and the sequelae caused by his family being slaughtered overnight, Lei Ao's emotions were always in a state of high tension.

The expression on his face gradually relaxed, and Lei Ao finally regained his composure.

He stood up and bowed to Zhang Yifeng and said, "I have met the senior, the junior is named Lei Ao. May I ask why the senior came to rescue me?"

After speaking, Lei Ao stood still, but the tension still in his heart made him lower his head slightly unconsciously.

"Oh, of course I have a plan to save you, but even if you don't have what I want, I will rescue you through this matter."

Zhang Yifeng's straightforward words immediately shocked Lei Ao.

He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the unworldly young man in front of him in disbelief.

"So, senior, you are indeed here for the imperial treasure key that my Lei family has guarded for generations, right?"

"I'm sorry, although senior saved my life..."

Lei Ao gritted his teeth and continued his previous remarks.

However, Zhang Yifeng waved his hand and said with an indifferent expression: "Neither gain nor loss is within my expectations."

"If you want to hand over this so-called imperial treasure key to me, you will naturally send it to me yourself. I have no intention of forcing anyone to do anything."

"Although one of my friends during this trip told me clearly that it would be okay to imprison you and interrogate you, but I still prefer a more peaceful approach."

After Zhang Yifeng finished speaking, he turned around and looked at the sea of ​​stars in the distance.

Lei Ao's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and he raised his eyes slightly to look at the tall figure in front of him.

Just from his conversation, he could feel the aura of superiority exuded by the senior Zhang in front of him.

This is countless times stronger than those bandit cultivators who slaughtered the Lei family and hunted him day and night.

"Let's put aside the matter of the Imperial Treasure Key for now. I'm more curious about your story now."

"How did these bandit cultivators slaughter your entire Lei family in one night?"

"After all, in my opinion, the Thunder God Sword you have is not an ordinary magic weapon."

"If you hold this sword, even if dozens of fellow monks surround you, it should be able to keep the user safe."

Zhang Yifeng turned around and looked at Lei Ao with slightly moving eyes.

Hearing this, Lei Ao couldn't help but show pain on his face.

Obviously his words had brought back sad things that the young man in front of him didn't want to recall.

But even so, Zhang Yifeng never changed his mind and still stared at Lei Ao closely.

"Huh, the reason is that our Lei family accepted a group of monks who came to seek refuge."

"Although they don't look like good people at first, our Lei family's benevolence and righteousness have already spread throughout the Sihai Continent, and we have no intention of turning a blind eye to these people who come to seek refuge."

"But it was this heart of benevolence that ultimately harmed our Lei family."

"Those guys actually used my relatives in the Lei family who have no fighting ability to threaten us and ask us to put down our weapons and surrender. They also said that as long as we surrender, our safety will be guaranteed!"

Lei Ao said, clenching his fists hard.

"Well, it's a simple trick, but it's often a fatal threat to the righteous."

Xuanyuan Li stood beside Zhang Yifeng and analyzed in a deep voice.

Obviously the so-called surrender and survival were just lies told by the bandit cultivators. Their real purpose was to remove all the Lei family's defenses.

Needless to say, the final result was that the Lei family, who treated others well, was ultimately buried under their own benevolence.

Perhaps the only person in the entire Lei family who escaped was Lei Ao in front of them.

"Compared to others, my parents were more considerate. They specially handed over the Thunder God Sword and the Imperial Treasure Key to my hands, allowing me to take advantage of the chaos and escape from the Lei family."

"But there are others like my parents..."

Lei Ao said, his eyes slightly red, and his ears seemed to be echoing with the roars of his parents telling him to run away.

"That's enough, no need to say any more."

"The journey ahead is still long, so stay focused on yourself."

Zhang Yifeng said quietly, then raised his hand and covered Lei Ao's body with a little spiritual light.

Immediately, Lei Ao's whole body was bathed in spiritual light, and the expression on his face gradually calmed down.

Lei Ao pursed his lips and looked up at Zhang Yifeng. He wanted to ask something but was afraid of offending this powerful senior.

He simply lowered his head in the end and didn't ask any more questions.

When Zhang Yifeng saw this, he had no further reaction. He just came to the bow of the ship and continued to look into the distance.

Seeing this, the other people surrounding Lei Ao dispersed to do their own things.

For a moment, the crowd dispersed, and Lei Ao felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

He continued to huddle in the corner of the flying boat, holding the Thunder God Sword tightly in his arms.

"Yifeng, what are you going to do next?"

Xuanyuan Li slowly came to Zhang Yifeng and asked in a low voice.

What he asked was naturally about how to deal with Lei Ao next and the direction of all of them.

"Well... let's go to Sihaizhou."

Zhang Yifeng groaned, looked directly in front of the flying boat and said softly.

The location of Sihaizhou is exactly north of them.

Although Lei Ao was brought aboard the flying boat at this time, everyone still knew little about the matter of chance, so they might as well continue heading north.
