Youth Song: Leijiabao Thunder Emperor

They heard that Lei Dong had rendered Li Hanyi speechless without even lifting a finger. Their interest was immediately piqued.

They quickly invited Lei Wujie back to the city lord's mansion.

Lei Wujie didn't hide anything and told the two of them everything that happened on Cangshan Mountain, while also asking for their opinions.

"Well, what Lei Dong said seems to make some sense. So, Lei Wujie, are you really not going to practice swordsmanship anymore?"

Sikong Qianluo felt that Lei Dong's words made sense. However, she also felt that it was wrong for Lei Wujie not to practice swordsmanship, so she asked him somewhat nervously.

"I don't know either, so I came to ask you."

"You still need to practice your swordsmanship. Do you intend to betray your sect? Be careful, or the Second City Lord might cripple you."

Brother Lei is right. The self is the foundation; the sword is merely a means of attack, not the whole picture. You must distinguish between primary and secondary importance.

Xiao Se rolled her eyes at Sikong Qianluo.

If Lei Wujie really stops practicing swordsmanship in the future, Li Hanyi will definitely chop Lei Dong in half. This is no joke.

At the same time, he seemed to understand why Lei Dong was angry and why Li Hanyi wasn't furious.

Given Lei Wujie's foolish nature, he might very well draw his sword for someone else, and he might also follow in his mother's footsteps.

"Don't you still have the Fear-Slaying Sword? How's your research on the Thunder and Fire Technique that Brother Lei told you about? The Fear-Slaying Sword is no weaker than the Rain-Listening Sword."

If you can't draw the Listening to Rain Sword, you can practice the Thunder and Fire Technique first.

Brother Lei is researching martial arts techniques, isn't he? You can learn from him.

"That's right, Senior Brother's lightning magic is much cooler than his sword. I can have my own lightning magic too."

I'm going to the armory too. I'll go find my master right now.

Upon hearing this, Lei Wujie turned and ran.

"Lei Wujie is going to cultivate thunder magic and really won't practice swordsmanship anymore."

Sikong Qianluo was completely dumbfounded.

"Lei Wujie's mother cultivated the Sword of Protection, and in the end, she died protecting others."

Given this silly boy's personality, he's very likely drawing his sword for someone else, which is why Brother Lei is angry.

Actually, the Sword of Terror is quite good too.

Xiao Se watched Lei Wujie's retreating figure and explained softly.

"Many people practice martial arts to protect their families, so what's wrong with a sword for protection? Does one have to practice swordsmanship to kill?"

Lei Dong meant for this silly boy to practice his skills more, so why isn't he practicing his sword anymore?

"He's different. His mother, like your father, was one of the Four Guardians of the Apocalypse. If he were to practice the Guardian Sword, he might inherit his mother's responsibilities and become embroiled in court intrigues. His future would be fraught with danger, and he might very well die for someone else."

This is also why Lei Dong was willing to turn against the Second City Lord.

Lei Dong was afraid; he feared that Lei Wujie would inherit his mother's responsibilities.

Xiao Se's fists clenched unconsciously. He had no intention of dragging this foolish boy into the vortex.

"The Four Guardians of Apocalypse. Then he's not the son of the Azure Dragon Envoy."

"That's right. Don't tell anyone about this, don't let Lei Wujie know."

……

"What?"

On the Cangshan Mountain, Li Hanyi, who hadn't moved an inch after the two left, suddenly had her long hair flying when she heard that Lei Wujie wanted to learn the Thunder Fusion Technique.

His hand was already gripping the hilt of the sword.

"Say what you want to do again."

"Master, I want to incorporate the Fire Scorching Technique into the Lightning Thunder Fist and cultivate my own Thunder and Fire Technique."

My senior colleague has already told me the method, but I still can't seem to get the hang of it.

I want to go to the armory and study with my senior brothers. I'll strive to perfect my skills as soon as possible.

"The fusion of cultivation techniques is not that easy. That's utter nonsense. Do you know how dangerous it is to fuse cultivation techniques?"

Lei Dong created his own cultivation technique; he has experience. You haven't even mastered your own technique and you want to merge it with others? Do you want to die?

Li Hanyi was truly enraged now. Lei Wujie shrank back in fear.

"Master, I... I already have an idea. I'm sure I can do it."

"What? You want to run before you can even walk. I can let you learn swordsmanship, but you absolutely cannot combine martial arts techniques."

At the very least, it's not possible before Lei Dong succeeds. If you really want to fuse the two techniques, you have to wait until Lei Dong succeeds. I won't stop you then, as he'll guide you, but it's absolutely not possible now.

"Use this time to hone your skills. Master the lightning techniques he taught you before thinking about unrealistic things."

Seeing the Listening Rain Sword in Lei Wujie's hand, Li Hanyi finally softened.

To be precise, she wasn't sure whether she should teach Lei Wujie swordsmanship.

.

Lei Dong's words, "You have to be brainwashed before you can practice swordsmanship," really hit her like a ton of damage.

……

Lei Dong's goal was clear: first and foremost, Taoist practices, which were essentially lightning-attribute martial arts.

He had seen a lot of medical skills and internal energy cultivation techniques in Lei Family Fortress and Medicine King Valley, but he hadn't come into much contact with Taoist arts and techniques.

Lei Dong's thunder magic, which uses martial arts to enter the Dao, actually leans more towards Daoist magic at this stage.

If it weren't for the deep-seated karmic ties between the Lei family and Wangcheng Mountain, he would have gone to Wangcheng Mountain already.

It must be said that Snowmoon City truly lives up to its reputation as a century-old city. It has a profound cultural heritage.

After the guard's introduction, he actually found more than ten Taoist secret manuals and dozens of volumes of Taoist classics.

To his even greater surprise, he also found two lightning-attribute martial arts techniques: the Thunderclap Blade and the Thunderclap Sword, along with their corresponding internal energy cultivation methods. While their grades weren't high, they could still be used as a reference.

"Senior brother. Senior brother. I'm here. I'm here."

Lei Dong had just moved the books he had selected together in preparation for a long battle when he heard Lei Wujie shouting loudly.

"Why are you here instead of practicing your skills?"

"I want to fuse lightning and fire, so I want to learn with my senior brother."

I've already spoken to my mentor. She agreed.

"She agreed, and what did you say? She didn't punish you."

Well, studying is a good thing. But studying isn't something that can be done in a day or two.

You've just broken through, and this is a period of rapid progress. At this time, focus on cultivation; just set aside some time each day for this. Don't put too much energy into it right now.

"Yes, senior brother."

Lei Wujie was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Don't be fooled by his impulsive decision to learn from Lei Dong. If he were really stuck in the armory every day, he'd be in real trouble. Hearing Lei Dong say he'd set aside time to study every day made him feel like dawn was breaking.

"Here is a lightning-attribute sword technique; take a look."

Lei Dong handed the cultivation manual to Lei Wujie and then devoted himself to studying.

Lei Wujie didn't dare to make a sound and silently watched.

Every now and then, he would practice the hand gestures.

Just as the two were engrossed in their studies, Li Hanyi also arrived at the city lord's mansion.

He told Sikong Changfeng about Lei Wujie's idea and wanted to hear his opinion.

Despite Li Hanyi's strong and domineering personality, she still has to listen to the Third City Lord when things get tough.

"That kid from the Lei family really knows how to cause trouble."

Fusion techniques are no simple matter, Lei Wujie, you'd better keep a close eye on things and make sure nothing goes wrong.

Sikong Changfeng was also at a loss after hearing Li Hanyi's words.

"I warned Xiao Jie that even if he wanted to fuse cultivation techniques, he had to wait until Lei Dong finished. Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible."

"Your younger brother is usually very trustworthy; he won't break his promise to you."

Next, we just need to figure out a way to dissuade him from this idea.
