The person who spoke to halt Xiao Lin actually only had a cultivation of the Dou Zong realm.
However, with the Lei Clan backing him, even with Xiao Lin, a Nine-Star Dou Zun, arriving at the door, he still possessed this confidence. Furthermore, how could there only be a single Dou Zong guarding the entrance to the Lei Realm?
After hearing the shout of this Lei Clan guard, Xiao Lin did not get angry either, and directly landed from the sky.
"Lin Xiao of Jia Nan Academy, here specifically to visit Headmaster Mang Tianchi of the Lei Clan!"
Xiao Lin stopped his figure not far from the entrance of the Lei Realm, speaking clearly and loudly.
Facing a colossus like the Lei Clan, Xiao Lin naturally did not dare to be overly presumptuous at this moment. Besides, the other party was merely carrying out a normal duty, so Xiao Lin naturally had no reason to feel displeased.
He was not some arrogant, generic protagonist who thought he was center of the universe, who would harbor resentment against someone just because of a simple sentence.
That would be a display of pure idiocy!
"Visiting Elder Mang Tianchi?"
Hearing what Xiao Lin said, the Lei Clan guard muttered doubtfully.
"Yes, this is the token!"
As he spoke, Xiao Lin handed the token that Mang Tianchi had previously gifted him toward the Lei Clan guard.
After receiving the token from Xiao Lin's hand, and using who-knows-what method to confirm its authenticity, the guard immediately became respectful toward Xiao Lin.
"Please wait a moment, I will go inform Elder Mang Tianchi right away!"
After returning the token back to Xiao Lin, the Lei Clan guard prepared to go and inform Mang Tianchi.
However, before this Lei Clan guard could run very far, a voice sounded out.
"No need, you are Lin Xiao, right? Bring the guest in."
Unbeknownst to anyone, an old man with completely white hair and beard had silently appeared at the entrance of the Lei Realm.
Xiao Lin had failed to notice his appearance entirely!
"Elder Lei Ji!"
The moment he saw this old man, the Lei Clan guard immediately stepped forward and reported respectfully.
Lei Ji, an early-stage Two-Star Dou Sheng Elder of the Lei Clan, was also the person in charge of the entrance to the Lei Realm. In other words, the entrance and exit of the Lei Realm were precisely guarded by him.
Regarding the matter that Xiao Lin might come to the Lei Clan, Mang Tianchi had already reported it after returning to the Lei Clan back then.
At the same time, Mang Tianchi had also revealed his idea of wanting to invest in Xiao Lin to the higher-ups of the Lei Clan.
In response to this, although the higher-ups of the Lei Clan believed Mang Tianchi's judgment, because they had not yet seen Xiao Lin in person, the Lei Clan would naturally not rush to flatter Xiao Lin and send him all kinds of resources.
No matter what, their Lei Clan was one of the Eight Ancient Clans, and one that ranked near the top, so when did they ever need to fawn over an outsider who was not even a Dou Sheng yet?
To use the words of the Lei Clan's higher-ups, they would wait until Xiao Lin came to the Lei Clan to seek help in the future, and then they would determine whether Xiao Lin was worthy of their Lei Clan's investment through observation.
Lei Ji, who possessed a cultivation of the Two-Star Dou Sheng realm, was naturally one of the higher-ups of the Lei Clan!
Therefore, he had of course also heard about Xiao Lin from Mang Tianchi's mouth. Coupled with the fact that he was the guardian of the Lei Realm's entrance, he paid a bit more attention to Xiao Lin.
"Greetings, Elder Lei Ji."
After Xiao Lin was led to Lei Ji's side by that Lei Clan guard, he took the opportunity to speak. Just now, he had already learned from this Lei Clan guard's mouth that the old man in front of him was named Lei Ji.
"A Nine-Star Dou Zun cultivation, and also a mid-stage Heaven Realm soul power, not bad, no wonder Mang Tianchi thinks so highly of you, you are indeed a good prospect with hope of reaching the Dou Sheng realm!"
Looking at Xiao Lin who had walked up close, Lei Ji stroked his beard and smiled.
"Elder Lei Ji praises me too highly."
Xiao Lin still behaved very modestly.
The Dou Sheng realm, he indeed had the confidence to reach it, but not right now.
"This is not overpraise, this old man has always spoken the plain truth."
"Moreover, back then you fought your way into the Yellow Spring Pavilion, forcing that fellow Huang Quan to subsequently announce the closure of his pavilion for ten years. I have also heard about this matter, well done!"
Lei Ji continued to praise Xiao Lin.
Being showered with praises right upon meeting, even with Xiao Lin's thick skin, he felt somewhat embarrassed at this moment.
At this time, he did not know what else to say.
"Come with me, Mang Tianchi is currently still in secluded cultivation, but our Lei Clan will naturally entertain you well. If you have any requests, you might as well speak frankly."
"Mang Tianchi established an academy over in the Northwestern Region, and since you are a part of that academy, you can reasonably be considered half a member of our Lei Clan."
There was nothing wrong with this statement of Lei Ji's.
When a clansman established a faction, those who came out of that faction indeed shared a bit of a connection with their Lei Clan. However, given the standards of the Lei Clan, ordinary people would never catch their eye.
It was only because Xiao Lin's talent was truly exceptional that he was recognized by Lei Ji.
"Then I shall trouble Elder Lei Ji."
Xiao Lin cupped his hands toward Lei Ji and said.
Mang Tianchi was still in secluded cultivation, which was something that could not be helped. Subsequently, Xiao Lin followed behind Lei Ji and stepped into the Lei Realm!
The moment he entered the Lei Realm, endless spiritual Qi instantly surged toward him. The Heaven and Earth spiritual Qi inside the Lei Realm could simply be described as exaggerated.
With such dense spiritual Qi, even if a person with ordinary talent cultivated here, they could probably reach a fairly high realm.
All roads lead to Rome. But compared to the children outside, the descendants of the Lei Clan were basically born in Rome.
Regarding this, Xiao Lin could only feel envious.
At the same time, after stepping into the Lei Realm, Lei Ji had already quietly sent a sound transmission to the Lei Clan's Clan Leader, Lei Ying, and reported Xiao Lin's current situation.
The sound transmission of a Dou Sheng powerhouse was something the current Xiao Lin was completely unable to detect!
"I understand. Then let us proceed according to what Mang Tianchi said. As long as the request brought up by this Lin Xiao is not too excessive, our Lei Clan will do our best to satisfy him!"
"Yes, Clan Leader!"
Xiao Lin had no idea that at this very moment, the Lei Clan had truly confirmed their decision to invest in him!
For the current Xiao Lin, this could indeed be counted as a good thing. As for the favor, he could only repay it slowly in the future.
Very quickly, Lei Ji personally settled Xiao Lin down within the Lei Realm!
Because he had just arrived at the Lei Clan, Xiao Lin was naturally not in a position to bring up his request right away. Of course, if Mang Tianchi were to end his secluded cultivation right now, Xiao Lin would naturally not feel embarrassed.
Between the other members of the Lei Clan and Xiao Lin, there was ultimately a layer of separation in their relationship. After staying inside the Lei Clan for three days, Lei Ji approached Xiao Lin once again.
"Little friend Lin Xiao, Mang Tianchi is still in the middle of secluded cultivation right now. If you have run into any troublesome matters, you might as well speak to me directly."
"Mang Tianchi can also be considered a junior of mine. Now that a junior of my junior has business, I should naturally contribute my share of effort!"
Lei Ji's words were still spoken very subtly.
However, it was not difficult to hear that he wanted Xiao Lin to directly bring up his request to the Lei Clan.
Originally, Xiao Lin had wanted to discuss this matter with Mang Tianchi, but considering that his headmaster might not come out of seclusion for who-knows-how-long, after hesitating again and again, he still decided to speak the truth.
After all, he still had that three-year agreement with Ji Li!
