Chapter 198 – Ancestor Of The Lei Family (2/2)

“What is this?” Playing around with the thing, the object was like a red fire ball that gave off a hot aura. Lei Yu inspected the red ball but still couldn’t figure out its use.

“It’s called a Flame Bead and not some type of treasure. There’s no need to be so surprised.”

At this time, a voice came from the stone door. Lei Yu was in complete shock while he stared at the door. After a while of shaking, the stone door opened by sliding upwards. Lei Yu took a few steps back and assumed his fighting stance.

“What? You want to fight with your ancestor? No matter how you say it, there’s no way of justifying it!”

It was only now that Lei Yu was able to clearly see this person. He was a middle-aged looking man with a height of about 1.8 meters. And it was not hard to tell that when this guy was young, he was extremely good looking. Lei Yu was also unable to sense what level of strength this expert was at.Lei Yu cautiously asked: “An ancestor? What do you mean by those words?”

“I’m the third generation Patriarch of the Lei Sect, Lei Rong Kun.” The middle-aged man smiled beneath the door’s archway as he said this.

“Lei Rong Kun? You’re Lei Rong Kun?!” Lei Yu was completely shocked. He had read through the old scrolls of the family before and came across the information about Lei Rong Kun. He was definitely someone of the third generation but why was he calling it the Lei Sect instead of the Lei family?

“That’s right, it is I.”

“This… this is impossible! If you’re really the third generation’s Patriarch, you should have already… already…”

“Already been dead right?”

Lei Yu felt he was a bit rude but this was just too inconceivable. He could only lightly nod.

“Come in with me.” Lei Rong Kun turned around and went in. Lei Yu hesitated a bit before following him in through the archway.

The inside looked nothing like the circular hole that was filled with lightning. It was basically a stone bedroom with a stone bed, tables and chair made of stone, and nothing else.

Lei Yu sat on a stone chair while Lei Rong Kun walked over and sat on the stone bed. Perhaps it was out of habit, but Lei Rong Kun crossed his legs and looked like he was about to cultivate.

“This place is the forbidden grounds of the Lei Sect. Whether it is outsiders or the Lei family members, no one is allowed. So, why have you come here?” Lei Rong Kun asked directly.

“I… I am here because something happened to me in the family and it was beyond my control that I jumped off the cliff. Halfway down the mountain, I found a hole in the mountain that looked like a cave and figured I’d come in to take a look around.” Lei Yu explained.

“Oh?” After examining Lei Yu, Lei Rong Kun then asked: “You’ve already reached the late stages of [Detachment], not bad! How old are you this year?”

“Twenty-five.” Lei Yu replied as he looked around the cave bedroom.

“What?!” Lei Rong Kun jumped off the stone bed in shock.
