The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1409 Lei Family Secret Meeting

In the large square at the main entrance of the Holy Courtyard, invisible forces slowly pushed away the people nearby. Experienced people immediately realized that something was about to happen to the Holy Courtyard, so they stopped to watch.

A large number of people hurried over from the East Holy Pavilion, the Criminal Court, the Medical Court and other places.

Not far from the large square, more than ten people stood together, including purple-robed Confucian scholars, blue-robed university scholars, Hanlin scholars and Jinshi scholars, all of whom were Lei family members who stayed in Kongcheng and the Holy Courtyard all year round.

"I'm almost back. Do you think our Lei family will win?"

"Needless to say, Fang Yun is known as the Mad King, and he will definitely agree. As long as he agrees, he will definitely lose. This time, it's not just our Lei family that is stepping in. The West Sea, South Sea, and North Sea have joined forces to stop it. Not to mention that he is only a Hanlin now, even if he is a great scholar, he will definitely die under the Dragon Gate."

"The Blood Mang fiefdom, just thinking about it makes me excited. There are countless stars in the Ten Thousand Worlds, but there are only a few that are truly suitable for human habitation. Even the demon world is not suitable for human habitation. Ordinary people who go there can only live for thirty years at most, and at least they have to be above the level of Juren to live to fifty or sixty years old."

"With the Blood Mang fiefdom, my Lei family's status is more stable, and its strength can already rival that of ordinary semi-saint families!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, and thunder sounded in the air, shaking everyone slightly.

Then, a stream of water light fell from the sky, and there was a person in each stream of water light.

There were eighteen people in total.

Many people were either sleeping or unconscious, only a few scholars such as Kong Yingnian, Lei Chongmo and Zong Chenli, who had passed the Dragon Gate, opened their eyes quickly and stood up slowly.

People from various halls and pavilions came forward, and people from the East Saint Pavilion and the Criminal Hall even looked at these eighteen people with caution, even though they had known each other for many years.

When they saw a ray of light passing over everyone, their faces eased.

Most of the people in the Criminal Hall evacuated, leaving only four people.

People from the Medical Hall walked forward quickly, and a scholar from the Medical Hall took out several simple camp beds from the Hanhu Shell and carried the unconscious people to the Medical Hall to receive the protection of the Medical Family's Holy Book.

Fang Yun and Yan Yukong were both carried onto the camp beds. Many people in the Holy Court looked at Fang Yun with his eyes closed, worried and worried, fearing that Fang Yun would get into trouble.

The Lei family no longer cared to look at Fang Yun, and all looked at Lei Chongmo.

Lei Chongmo was seen with disheveled clothes and hair scattered behind him. He lowered his head slightly, looked at the ground, and walked slowly, his posture as stiff as a walking corpse.

The Lei family, who were originally full of hope, were struck by lightning. Lei Chongmo said nothing, but it was equivalent to saying everything.

"It's over. I don't know what they bet on in Longmen..."

"Shut up! Chongmo hasn't spoken yet, so you can't act on your own! Let's go and ask Chongmo together!" The great scholar Lei Tingzhen walked towards Lei Chongmo quickly.

The Lei family passed by Fang Yun on the camp bed.

Several Lei family members walked a little shaky, and the legs of the lowest-ranking people were even trembling. It goes without saying that the bet that can bet with the Blood Mang fiefdom is not ordinary. Once the Lei family loses, it will be enough to seriously injure the Lei family. The actual damage is a hundred times heavier than the fire of the three rituals.

Lei Tingzhen took a few steps, moved his lips slightly, and transmitted a message to Lei Chongmo.

"No matter what happens, let's go back to the Lei family. As long as the Lei family is still here and the relics of Lei Zu are still here, nothing will be a problem!"

Lei Chongmo's body trembled and he slowly raised his head.

Sympathy and sadness flashed in the eyes of Lei Tingzhen and the people of the Lei family. Lei Chongmo's beard and hair on his temples had turned into silver, and the silver hair was increasing. Lei Chongmo's face actually had deep wrinkles.

Two days without seeing each other felt like ten years.

Lei Chongmo's eyes were full of confusion, but the confusion slowly dissipated. He nodded and said, "Gather the elders and return to the Lei family meeting hall."

Lei Tingzhen nodded and said nothing more.

The Lei family used the literary world of the Holy Academy to return to the Lei family as quickly as possible.

When Lei Chongmo stepped into the Lei family meeting hall, thousands of lights were already on.

The night pearls on both sides of the meeting hall were bright and soft, illuminating the spacious hall like daylight.

Many Lei family elders sat on the chairs on both sides of the meeting hall, and many Lei family scholars stood behind these chairs.

These people looked gloomy. Although there was a night pearl shining, it made people feel that the meeting hall was full of shadows.

Lei Chongmo had combed his hair and walked steadily to the position of the head of the family. He stood in front of the chair, put his hands on the table, and slowly scanned the Lei family. Lei Chongmo saw panic, confusion, and even regret in the eyes of these people. Many people even lost the courage to look him in the face.

Lei Chongmo sighed in his heart. Before he went to the West Sea Dragon Palace to practice, the children of the Lei family were so high-spirited. At that time, the head of the family was still Lei Yue, and the whole Lei family was full of vigor. After the success of Jiaolong Wentai, Lei Chongmo wanted to take the Lei family to a step further, but now, he saw a gray face.

Even when the two worlds were about to be broken, the Lei family had never been like this!

Lei Chongmo clenched his fists and rested them on the table, biting his teeth tightly.

"It's all because of Fang Yun!" Lei Chongmo roared in his heart.

The meeting hall was silent for a long time.

"Ahem... Patriarch, please sit down." An old Lei family scholar reminded him with a very respectful tone. Lei Chongmo was different from the previous Patriarch. Even if Lei Chongmo stepped down as Patriarch, his status was no less than that of a great scholar. Just by relying on Jiaolong Wentai, Lei Chongmo could be ranked as one of the most outstanding people in the history of the Lei family.

Lei Chongmo nodded gently and sat down slowly.

"The Lei family lost." Lei Chongmo said the result the moment he sat down.

In the meeting hall, some people were angry, some were sad, some had red eyes, and some were pale, but no one cursed Fang Yun.

He had cursed too much before, and after losing to Fang Yun again, he seemed to have no energy to curse.

At this moment, many people felt much more sober.

"How much of the divine treasures that we discussed before leaving did you lose?" Lei Tingzhen said.

"All lost." Lei Chongmo said calmly.

A strong sense of sadness enveloped the Lei family.

"Our Lei family can afford to lose, and we will not default on our debts! We will start counting tomorrow and send all the bets to Jingguo! The Lei family does not owe Fang Yun!" Lei Tingzhen sat up straight, his voice like a tiger roaring.

Hearing the words of this great scholar, the sadness in the eyes of many Lei family members gradually dissipated, but the hatred slowly gathered.

"Tell me what happened." Another great scholar of the Lei family said.

Lei Chongmo nodded gently and told the story again.

"This matter... can't be blamed on you and Yi Gu. Who would have thought that he could summon Wenxin Whale and Dragon Boat in front of the Dragon Gate, and even three real dragons couldn't stop him. It's normal for my Lei family to lose." Lei Tingzhen said.

The Lei family nodded gently.

"Then..." Lei Chongmo raised his head, with a strange light in his eyes, "My Lei family and Fang Yun, is it a war or peace?"

The meeting hall was silent. After a while, Lei Tingzhen suddenly said: "Everyone below the Grand Secretary leaves this place, and the Lei family will hold a closed meeting. No one is allowed to disturb them even if something big happens!"

The Lei family left one after another. Not long after, Lei Tingzhen waved his sleeves, and the door of the meeting hall slammed shut.
