Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 402: Spring Thunder
Lu Zheng slowly withdrew his hand. He didn't really want to do anything to the strong man. He just wanted to show his power.

The strong man knelt there, still unable to recover.

Several people nearby quickly helped him up.

Lu Zheng looked at the strong man and asked, "What's your name?"

"Kuang..." Kuang said in a low voice.

As the leader of the Mirage Clan's thousand-man guard, this was the first time he was humiliated by an outsider, which was really embarrassing.

Lu Zheng said calmly: "You can be crazy, but you can't be brainless."

Lu Zheng paused, then continued, "Your Lady Shenyu has paid a large sum of money to have me guide you and teach you how to govern the place. This matter is very important to her. To be frank, I have fulfilled my responsibilities, but if you fail to satisfy her, you know the consequences..."

When several people heard this, their expressions changed for a moment.

Lu Zheng looked at the sky and found that it had darkened. There was a feeling of oppression, as if a storm was about to break out.

Lu Zheng said, "Let's stop here today. I'll be here for a month at most. You can learn as much as you can in this month. Work hard. You can try to do what I said today."

The four of them couldn't help but feel that time was running out. One month was too short. What could they learn?
Lu Zheng didn't care what they thought and took Qing Wan to the city.

Sometimes if you talk too much, others won't listen.

The Confucian cultivator hurriedly followed and asked respectfully, "Master Lu, there were some things I didn't quite understand just now..."

Lu Zhengdao: "What?"

Chen Lin expressed his doubts and confusion.

Lu Zheng patiently explained.

Chen Lin thought about it carefully and found that Lu Zheng's actions were indeed of great benefit to the Mirage Clan.

Lu Zheng walked back slowly, "Are you a half-demon?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Lin replied, "My ancestors have human and merman blood... My grandfather was from the Mirage Clan, and I have the most Mirage Clan blood in me."

Lu Zheng nodded slightly and asked, "Then what do you think are the differences between the different races?"

Chen Lin thought for a moment and whispered, "Apart from the bloodline, I don't feel much difference. But the bloodline is already a huge difference..."

Whether it is the human race or the demon race, many of them are proud of their noble bloodline.

Lu Zheng put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Who among those who have survived to this day didn't have wealthy ancestors?"

Lu Zheng paused, then continued, "Go back and sort out some of the rules of your Mirage Clan. Show them to me tomorrow and I'll help you compile new laws."

"This..." Chen Lin couldn't help but say, "It might be difficult to get them to follow the new law."

Lu Zheng said leisurely, "This is not something I need to consider. You can show the new law to Lady Shenyu for review. As long as she nods her approval, what else is there to worry about?"

Chen Lin thought to himself that although they could approve, it was still their subordinates who were to enforce the law. What if they offended other masters?

Lu Zheng knew Chen Lin's concerns and said, "Some things are really not that easy to do. Otherwise, why would she need you? Letting you do these things also shows her trust in you."

Chen Lin thought that was right. He rarely saw Mirage Jade in normal times, and the fact that he was chosen for such a thing was obviously a recognition of him.

If you fail to seize this opportunity, you may never have the chance to improve your status again in the future.

"Boom!"

A loud thunder roared.

Chen Lin and the others were startled and looked a little unnatural.

Seeing this, Lu Zheng asked curiously, "Are you still afraid of thunder?"

The few demons in front of him, who were at least somewhat skilled in Taoism, were actually frightened by a bolt of thunder.

Chen Lin said embarrassedly, "Today is Jingzhe, it's spring thunder, not ordinary thunder."

There are also differences in the thunder in the sky.

The Jingzhe spring thunder, the thunder at the beginning of the year, contains extremely strong Yang energy, which can awaken dormant creatures and promote the sprouting of plants.

Many demons and ghosts would feel uncomfortable with such spring thunder.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but look at the distant mountain. There were flashes of thunder in the sky and dark clouds rolling.

His thoughts flashed through his mind as he recalled some classics he had seen in the Wanjing Building.

The Spring Thunder during the Waking of Insects season is also a good thing for cultivation.

Lu Zheng turned to look at Qing Wan and asked, "Do you want to go?"

Qing Wan understood what Lu Zheng said and couldn't help but ask, "Is there any danger?"

Lu Zheng thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem."

"Then go!" Qing Wan said excitedly.

After all, they have been struck by lightning before.

The two of them changed direction and flew towards the distant mountain.

Chen Lin and the others looked at each other, not knowing what the two were going to do.

"They don't want to use this as a way to practice, do they?" someone said.

They had heard that there were human cultivators who were skilled in thunder magic and would use heavenly thunder to practice.

The few of them looked at each other and decided not to bother with it. They didn't want to be struck by lightning. This was spring thunder, and they didn't know how many years of cultivation would be lost if it was struck by lightning.

"Should we talk to Lord Shenyu in case something happens to them?" someone said.

"Oh, this can't be possible, he is so powerful."

Just now, Lu Zheng suppressed Kuang with ease. They felt that Lu Zheng's strength was not something they needed to worry about at all.

……

Lu Zheng took Qing Wan to the top of a high mountain and clearly felt the surging power of thunder.

"It's indeed a little different." Lu Zheng looked up at the rolling dark clouds in the sky. The flashing thunder was indeed a little different from the thunder he had encountered before.

The power to destroy everything also contains a hint of vitality... This is Lu Zheng's feeling.

I saw spring thunder surging in the sky, but it did not fall to the top of the mountain.

Lu Zheng raised his hand and made a gesture, and purple lightning flashed in his hand.

The purple lightning changed and turned into a straight and thin lightning rod.

In an instant, the power of spring thunder around was drawn in.

Bright flashes of lightning flashed, circling in the sky, and landed directly on the hill where Lu Zheng and Qing Wan were.

The two were suddenly engulfed by the shining thunder.

The rumbling sound was endless, echoing throughout the heaven and earth.

Chen Lin and his companions who had just rushed back to the city looked sideways, wondering in their hearts, would he be struck to death?
Lu Zheng and Qing Wan were bathed in the spring thunder, their bodies glowing with lightning.

The thunder flows through every part of his body, leaving a special vitality in his body.

Qing Wan felt numb all over and her mind went blank, but fortunately there was no harm.

Because most of the spring thunder was absorbed by Lu Zheng's small world, she only endured a small part of the thunder, so she was not injured.

Thunder flashed in Lu Zheng's small world, resonating with the spring thunder outside and directly connecting with it.

Thus, Lu Zheng became the seal connecting the two worlds.

The spring thunders in the sky struck Lu Zheng one after another. The majestic power of thunder seemed to create the world, causing the small world to slowly expand.

In the distance, many big monsters among the monster clan noticed the abnormality of Chunlei and couldn't help but check the situation out of curiosity.

Seeing two people bathing in endless spring thunder, I couldn't help but marvel at it.

Mirage Jade was lying in a palace, his eyes half-closed, using his divine sense to explore the outside world.

"Young people have good bodies. They can withstand so many spring thunders. They are definitely not ordinary Confucian cultivators. Are they refining their souls and bodies?"

Shenyu discovered that Lu Zheng seemed to have many secrets.

Not only the great monsters of the Mirage Clan were attracted by the changes in the spring thunder.

Some demons also came from afar to see what was happening here.

Seeing that someone was using Spring Thunder to practice, everyone's faces showed surprise.

Where did the human race come from to make such a big fuss? A great demon was puzzled.

One great demon even found the mayor of the Mirage Clan Demon City and asked, "Someone is practicing here, and you don't care?"

The city lord said expressionlessly, "That is Lord Shenyu's guest."

He is just the head of a city and cannot afford to offend Shenyu. His thin arms cannot twist the big ones.

Besides, Lu Zheng’s cultivation didn’t affect other people’s affairs, so why would he care?
Should he rush over to stop it? With so many spring thunders, he didn't want to attract them.

"Guest? Who is he?" the big demon asked in surprise.

Mirage Jade holds a very important position in the entire Xinghai Bay. How could the other party’s guests be ordinary people?

The city lord said calmly, "I don't know. Don't ask about our Mirage Clan's affairs."

The big demon became even more interested after hearing this. He already suspected that Lu Zheng was a cultivator from some powerful force, and was even wondering which immortal sect was good at thunder magic.

Elsewhere, a man in black robes hid in the dense forest, looking at Lu Zheng with a faint gaze.

"I didn't expect him to be here. Should I go and inform the God..."

Some time ago, the gods of the Chu State were looking for Lu Zheng.

After learning that Lu was in Yunmengze, some gods notified some believers in various places to search for him.

Although the true god of Chu will not easily set foot in Yunmengze, it does not mean that there are no believers and spies in Yunmengze.

Even in Xinghai Bay, some demon tribes will do things for certain outside beings for their own interests.

At this moment, Lu Zheng was happily absorbing the spring thunder and had no energy to care about other people's prying eyes.

Next to her, Qing Wan felt that she had almost had enough, and ran out of the range covered by the thunder.

Her hair was messed up by lightning and arcs of electricity were flashing on her body.

"call……"

Qing Wan exhaled a puff of black smoke and felt that her body was purified.

She touched her head again, stretched her muscles, and felt refreshed.

The vitality contained in the spring thunder even made her grow a little taller.

"Tianlei, what a good thing!"

Qing Wan's eyes sparkled. The heavenly thunder contained divine power, which was not comparable to the thunder magic of cultivators. In just such a short while, she had gained a lot of benefits.

As for Lu Zheng, he obviously gained more benefits.

Lu Zheng's understanding of the power of thunder has improved a lot.

The small world within the body is further improved under the thunder of spring thunder.

Before long, all the spring thunder in the world was consumed.

Lu Zheng stood on the top of the mountain, his clothes were not damaged at all, his eyes flashed with lightning, bright and sharp.

He looked around, and those who were watching him in secret were all in sight, with nowhere to hide.

The demons who came to watch the show noticed Lu Zheng's gaze and quietly retreated one by one.

Lu Zheng looked calm, slowly retracting his gaze, thinking to himself that there were quite a few big monsters in this place.
