The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Tai Lang Night Stronghold (2)
Everyone quickly cleaned up and destroyed all traces. Jin Dapang did not dare to continue leading them along the reserved path. Instead, he turned around and headed in another direction. At the very least, they needed to enter the Tai Lang Night Stronghold from another direction.
Big Fatty Jin specifically told him not to kill anyone and not to alert anyone along the way.
After crossing the main road, everyone entered a sparse forest. As soon as they entered the forest, they discovered that someone was heading towards the place where they had just stopped.
Be careful to hide, Everyone walked very quietly through the forest. Long whistles rose and fell outside. That was the unique method of communication here. Elder Thunder’s expression was obviously not good. According to his temper, regardless of whether he discovered it or not, he would directly kill him. Whoever blocked it would die. However, when he looked at Lei Xingfeng and Lei Xing Yao, he sighed slightly. Forget it. After all, he was not alone.
They traveled overnight until the next day, when they set foot on another road. This road entering the Tai Lang Night Stronghold meant that they were almost free of suspicion.
Jin Dapang suddenly understood. He immediately ordered his soldiers to change into the clothes of ordinary people. No wonder the path they came from was misunderstood by the disciples who had experienced it. Because they had forcibly barged in from the Barbarian Tribe, it was a dead end. Of course, no one came in contact with them, so it was normal for them to be misunderstood.
They were already close to the Tai Lang Night Stronghold. After traveling through the night, they arrived at another road. The sky was already bright, and there were many pedestrians, convoys, and teams of Sha Tuo beasts on the main road.
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “This path is still taken by people. There is not a single person in the path ahead, hehe.”
Big Fatty Jin said, “Of course, you don’t think about the path we took. Other than us, who else can go? Haha.”
Lei Xingfeng said, “Grandpa, do you have a specific address for us to go to the Tai Lang Night Stronghold?”
Old Man Lei Bao nodded his head and said, “Well, I have an old friend there, and some friends … Perhaps they have already arrived.” His tone was a little emotional.
Lei Xingfeng pondered for a moment and understood why the old man sighed. After he was injured, he probably didn’t plan to see his old friend again. This time, he actually came out again and could see his old friend again. It was normal for him to have some sighs.
At noon that day, they finally entered the Tai Lang Night Stronghold.
This was a huge open space. There were countless tents and simple and dilapidated thatched cottages. Just like Mo Jin City, this place was dirty and smelly. Garbage was piled up on the ground. There was no one to clean it up. There were also large puddles of water that emitted a fishy smell.
Lei Xingfeng looked at him in disbelief and said, “Grandpa, is this the Tai Lang Night Stronghold? My God, it stinks!”
Xinyao also covered her nose and said, “Grandpa, big brother, stinky!”
XinFeng smiled as he picked XinYao up and said, “Your brother and I don’t stink. YaoYao, bear with it.”
Qi Xuan and Du Hongchen were equally shocked. This place was too chaotic. Just as they entered, they saw a corpse on the roadside. It seemed that it had just been hacked to death.
Elder Thunder smiled and said, “Although this place is chaotic and smelly, for some people, this place is a good place. Haha, this is the outskirts of the Tai Lang Night Stronghold. We need to pass through this place, through the forest in front of us. There should be a river ahead.”
Lei Xingfeng observed for a moment and said, “Hey, aren’t there no ordinary people here?”
Elder Thunder smiled and said, “Of course, they are not ordinary people. They are all fugitives. The government cannot control them here, and cultivators do not care either. Therefore, there is no law here. If someone provokes you, the only way is to kill them. Of course, if they are not strong enough, then they will be killed.”
“Senior, that’s just a massacre between ordinary people, right? It has nothing to do with us cultivators,” Wen Yan said.
The old man Lei Bao said, “Cultivators are about the same. There is no difference. The only difference is that the power they display is different. Cultivators are more lethal.”
Very quickly, a group of people passed through the chaotic camps. No one dared to provoke them along the way. The people who were here had no vision and had died long ago. As long as they weren’t blind, they would know that this group of people was definitely not to be provoked.
The woods weren’t big. After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived at a small river. A small stone bridge straddled the banks of the river. There was a building opposite it. This building was completely different. It was all made of brick and stone. The beautiful little buildings were also very clean on the ground. It gave Lei Xingfeng the impression that the other side of the river was a slum, and this was a wealthy area.
XinFeng said, “This is the Tai Lang Night Stronghold?”
The old man Lei Bao said, “Yes, this is the real Tai Lang Night Stronghold. The people living inside are all cultivators.” He turned around and said, “Big Fatty Jin!”
Jin Dapang came over and said, “Senior, I know that my men will pitch tents in the woods. They won’t cross the bridge.” Ordinary people were not allowed to enter the Tai Lang Night Stronghold. If they had to enter, they deserved to die.
Old Man Lei Bao said, “Yes, our Sha Tuo Beast will stay here as well. Let Wei Zhenglong stay as well. Leave a few others behind. Their strength is too weak and there is no one to guard them. I estimate that when we return, nothing will be left behind.”
Jin Dapang nodded.
Qi Tianyao ordered the entire squad to stay behind. These Thousand Lun Masters and Ten Thousand Lun Masters were a very powerful force even here. Even a small sect would not dare to attack them at will, let alone the people from the camp outside.
Big Fatty Jin warned him a few more times before leaving.
Under the lead of the old man Lei Bao, he crossed the small stone bridge.
Qi Xuan, Du Hongchen, Wen Yan, Qi Tianyao, Big Fatty Jin, and Old Man Lei Bao entered the Tai Lang Night Stronghold.
As soon as they crossed the little stone bridge, a dozen or so cultivators appeared. They didn’t know where they were hiding, but they suddenly appeared. A Milun Master in the lead said, “Who are you looking for?”
The old man Lei Bao said calmly, “I’m looking for Tai Lang.”
Only then did Lei Xingfeng know that Tai Lang from the Tai Lang Night Stronghold was actually a human name.
The Milun Master had a surprised expression on his face, but he didn’t dare to be careless. To be able to directly address the head of the Tai Lang Night Stronghold, this person was definitely not simple. He said, “Please tell me your name. Let’s go pass on the message.”
The old man Lei Bao said, “Lei Bao.” He stopped talking.
The Milun Master bowed respectfully and turned around to leave. The others were still staring at the crowd, but it was clear that there was no hostility.
A moment later, a group of people ran over. The old man in the lead laughed loudly from a very far distance, “Brother Lei, Old Master, haha, you’ve finally come. I can’t wait to see through you.”
This was an old man with a strong body. He was famous here, and his strength was extremely strong. He had a five-ring true body, a Treasure Wheel Seal Adept, and a large group of cultivators. Even in Xi Rong Country, he was an overlord.
Tai Lang walked in front of the old man Lei Bao and carefully examined him. He laughed loudly and opened his arms. The two of them hugged each other. Tai Lang said, “Brother, you are even younger. Look at me … my hair and beard are all white, haha.”
A white-haired old woman appeared behind Tai Lang. She smiled and said, “Old Man Lei, you’re not dead yet?”
Lei Bao took a closer look and couldn’t help but shout, “No way, aren’t you … aren’t you dead?”
The old woman scolded, “damn old man, curse me to death when you see me!”
Elder Thunder laughed heartily and looked extremely happy. He said, “Good, good, I didn’t expect Old Sister to be so energetic. Haha, hahaha.”
“Of course, I’m no worse than you. Damn old man, I’ve been gone for decades without any news. What the hell is going on! I’m afraid of you!” Said the old woman.
Elder Thunder sighed and said, “It’s hard to say. Come, come! Feng, Yaoyao, come and see your grandparents.”
Tai Lang said, “Grandparents? Well, you have a grandson. How come I didn’t know you had a wife?”
The old man Lei Bao said, “I don’t have a wife!”
Tai Lang was puzzled, “No wife? Where did this grandson and granddaughter come from?”
Old Man Lei Bao said, “Damn, where did all this crap come from? This is my own grandson and granddaughter!”
Lei Xingfeng stepped forward and said, “Greetings, grandparents.”
Lei Xing Yao said, “Yao Yao pays her respects to Grandpa, Ah Nai.” Her voice was soft and tender.
The old woman nodded at XinFeng, and then her attention was drawn to XinYao. She reached out and hugged XinYao and said happily, “Aiyo, I like this child. Eh … no, this child has a single wheel seal! Green wheel … great, old man Lei, you actually have such an outstanding granddaughter!”
Tai Lang was interested in Lei Xingfeng. He said, “Aslan! You … look at this child, the Lightning Single Wheel Seal, wow … wow … Wan Lun Shi, by the way, your name is Feng, isn’t it? How old is he?”
XinFeng said, “Grandfather, I’m sixteen years old.”
Everyone present was experts, so they naturally understood what a 16-year-old Wan Lun Master meant.
Aslan hugged Lei Xing Yao and refused to let go. She slightly increased her Lei Xingfeng and her attention was taken away by Lei Xing Yao. She said, “That must be Old Man Lei personally teaching. A sixteen-year-old Wan Lun Shi is indeed not bad, but I like this girl better.”
A skinny middle-aged man had been smiling at them. He took a step forward and said, “Uncle Lei, little nephew luckily did not disappoint. However, there are still a few seniors who have yet to arrive.”
Elder Thunder smiled and said, “You ran much faster than me. Haha, Yan Wu, is your father coming this time too?”
Yan Wu shook his head and said, “Father is not coming. He specially sent me to obey Uncle Lei’s orders.”
Lei Xingfeng noted that, The surrounding people were very respectful towards Yan Wu, Even seniors like Tai Lang and Aslan were very polite to Yan Wu. They couldn’t help but be curious. He didn’t know that Yan Wu was a great expert who had condensed a four-ring true body. Daoist Dalun Yin’s father was even more formidable. Even if Elder Thunder called him brother, he was a truly formidable super expert.
Yan Wu continued, “Uncle Lei, my father told me to tell him that Yi Datong … might come back.”
Lei Bao’s expression immediately changed.
