Chapter 5126-5129 [Thunder Spirit Orb]

"Boss, are there any highly skilled Taoist practitioners in Leizhou?" Xiang Nan then asked a shopkeeper.

"A highly skilled cultivator?! I don't know." The shopkeeper shook his head and said.

"Since there are no powerful cultivators, why is the demonic energy so strong outside your Leizhou City, yet the people inside seem completely unaffected?" Xiang Nan continued to ask.

"Oh, you're asking about that?" The shopkeeper smiled slightly. "Then we have to thank our Governor of Leizhou, Lord Yun Tingyun."

"Lord Yun Ting? How powerful is he? Does he possess the ability to subdue demons and monsters?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

"Of course. Lord Yunting is born with extraordinary abilities; he can unleash lightning with his hands. Any demons or monsters that encounter him will not survive," the shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Wow, really? That's amazing!" Xiang Nan exclaimed with a smile.

"Of course it's true," the shopkeeper said. "You've just arrived from out of town, haven't you? Everyone in Leizhou City knows about this."

“Yes, we are from out of town, and this is the first time we’ve heard of him.” Xiang Nan nodded and smiled. “Then Leizhou City is truly blessed to have Lord Yun Ting.”

"That's for sure," the shopkeeper said. "But Lord Yun himself is very unfortunate. Because he has electricity in his hands, he usually doesn't dare to have contact with people. Even his newlywed wife was electrocuted to death by him on their wedding night. It was truly tragic."

"I see, thank you, boss," Xiang Nan said, cupping his hands in thanks.

Leaving the shop, Xiang Nan looked at Xu Changqing and said, "Now it seems that Yun Ting must have the Thunder Spirit Pearl on him, which is why he was able to release lightning and protect the peace of Leizhou."

“That should be the case.” Xu Changqing nodded.

"In that case, let's go directly to him and get the Thunder Spirit Orb back," Xiang Nan suggested.

"Will he give it to us? If he does, what will happen to the monsters outside Leizhou City?" Xuejian asked worriedly. "Won't this lead to a massive monster attack on the city?"

Although she knew the Five Elemental Pearls were important, she did not want to see the people of Leizhou harmed by monsters.

"Don't worry, Yun Ting can't fully control the Thunder Spirit Pearl yet. For him, the Thunder Spirit Pearl is both a treasure and a curse, making it impossible for him to even protect the people he loves. I think he must be very distressed."

"Furthermore, I will leave Yunting a magical artifact so he can continue to slay demons and monsters." Xiang Nan said, taking out Thor's Hammer from the storage room. "This magical artifact can also unleash lightning, with immense power, guaranteed to protect the people of Leizhou."

"I also have a magical artifact here called the Pure Brightness Pagoda," Xu Changqing said. "This pagoda can also purify demonic energy. I believe that with this pagoda guarding Leizhou, Leizhou will no longer be plagued by demonic influences."

Furthermore, I suspect that the reason these monsters have gathered in Leizhou is most likely because they covet the Thunder Spirit Pearl within Yun Ting's body. Therefore, once he relinquishes the Thunder Spirit Pearl, those monsters will also leave.

"That's fine then, let's go~" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

……

Afterwards, Xiang Nan and his three companions arrived at the governor's mansion.

"Please inform the servant that we wish to pay our respects to your master," Xiang Nan said with a smile as he approached the door.

"Our masters are busy with official duties, how could they have time to see idle people like you?" the servant said with a sneer.

Xiang Nan smiled slightly and presented a silver ingot, saying, "We have important matters to discuss with your lord. We are sorry to trouble you, young man."

"Alright, wait." The servant accepted the silver, his expression immediately improving, and then went inside to report.

A moment later, the servant returned. "Come with me. My master is here to see you in the hall."

"Thank you, young man." Xiang Nan cupped his hands and smiled, then led Xue Jian, Long Kui, and Xu Changqing, following the servants to the main hall.

Then, sitting in the hall, sat a handsome, dashing, and elegantly dressed young man.

"I am Jing Tian (Xu Changqing), greetings to Lord Yun," Xiang Nan said. Xu Changqing bowed and greeted him. Xue Jian and Long Kui also stepped forward to pay their respects.

"I just heard from the servants that you wanted to discuss something important with me. What is it about?" Yun Ting asked.

"We're all from out of town. We've heard that Lord Yun can unleash lightning with his hands. Is that true?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

"Why are you asking this?" Yun Ting asked, puzzled.

"I've also heard that Lord Yun can't fully control this ability, so much so that he doesn't dare to interact with people normally, is that true?" Xiang Nan asked again.

"What exactly do you want from me?" Yun Ting asked, frowning as he watched Xiang Nan circling around the issue.

“To tell you the truth, I know why this is happening, and I know how I can help you,” Xiang Nan said immediately.

"Do you know the reason? Why?" Yun Ting asked immediately.

"Because you have a legendary Thunder Spirit Pearl inside you," Xiang Nan explained. "It's a pearl formed by the three great gods, Fuxi, Shennong, and Nuwa, by combining their thunderous spiritual power. Since you carry it with you, you can naturally electrify wherever you go."

"The Thunder Spirit Orb?" Yun Ting was somewhat surprised. "So, how do you plan to help me?"

"Simple. Once we remove the Thunder Spirit Orb from your body, you won't be able to easily shock people anymore," Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Yun Ting was not pleased but angry. "Where exactly did you monsters come from, that you actually tried to trick me out of the Thunder Spirit Pearl within me? If I lose the Thunder Spirit Pearl, how can I protect the people of Leizhou?"

"We're not some kind of monsters. To tell you the truth, I'm the reincarnation of General Fei Peng from the divine realm, this is Xu Changqing, the eldest disciple of Mount Shu, this is Xuejian, the eldest daughter of the Tang Clan of Yuzhou, and this is Longkui, the princess of the ancient Jiang Kingdom," Xiang Nan said.
"Furthermore, we collect the Five Elemental Pearls to maintain peace in the human world. Look, we've already collected two. This one is the Earth Elemental Pearl, and this one is the Fire Elemental Pearl..."

As he spoke, he took out two spirit orbs. One was earthy yellow, and the other was fiery red, both containing immense spiritual power.

"Do you think I'll believe you just because you say that?" Yun Ting said disdainfully.

"I've already said all this, and since you still don't believe me, then I'm sorry." Xiang Nan said, flicking his finger to summon Yun Ting from mid-air.

Then Yun Ting's shirt automatically unbuttoned, and Xiang Nan slipped his hand into his chest.

Upon seeing this, Yun Ting immediately unleashed his lightning, striking Xiang Nan.

In an instant, Xiang Nan was struck by millions of lightning bolts, his entire body enveloped in the electric grid.

"Brother Jing~"

"Young Master Jing~"

"Brother~"

Xu Changqing, Xuejian, and Longkui were all very worried upon seeing this and cried out in alarm.

A moment later, the lightning released by Yun Ting suddenly stopped and gradually dissipated, revealing Xiang Nan, who had been enveloped by it.

He was sitting there unharmed, not only physically unharmed but also with his clothes intact. And in his hand, there was indeed a blue and white bead.

Xiang Nan then threw Yun Ting back.

"You..." Yun Ting stared at Xiang Nan in shock, "You're actually not afraid of my lightning?"

"How strong is your lightning?" Xiang Nan said disdainfully, "Even if it were ten thousand times more powerful, it wouldn't be able to hurt me in the slightest."

"You really are no ordinary person," Yun Ting said in astonishment.
