"So, this is the risk of this journey?"
Of course, Jiang Fan also noticed these three unexpected guests, and at this moment, he recalled the many messages from the Fortune-Telling Talisman.
Although he could gain a fourth-grade opportunity on this mission, he was also bound to encounter some challenges and turbulence.
Undoubtedly, these three Nascent Soul Cultivators suddenly arriving here would also be a calamity on this journey.
Fortunately, his Spiritual Sense detected that these three Nascent Soul Cultivators were only at the third layer.
For other Cultivators who have just entered the Nascent Soul stage, they might be extremely troublesome opponents, but for himself, they were still within a range he could handle, not posing a significant crisis.
Of course, if the enemies truly threatened him, then this mission would not be a great fortune but a great disaster.
In that case, he wouldn’t enter the Flame Dragon Secret Realm from Golden Scale Island.
So now, he felt calm and peaceful inside.
"Fellow Daoist, you look unfamiliar, which family’s Nascent Soul might you be from?"
"I am Lei Ze, the Patriarch of the Lei Family."
A middle-aged man in a black robe stared at Jiang Fan and asked.
He felt puzzled because he had never seen a Nascent Soul Cultivator like Jiang Fan.
After all, any Nascent Soul Cultivator who could enter the Flame Dragon Secret Realm must have been recruited by the direct descendants of the Zhao Family.
Even if they were not familiar with each other, they must have met before.
The problem was that the young Cultivator in front of him was someone he had never seen before and had no idea where he came from.
For this reason, he instinctively sensed that something was unusual.
However, as a Nascent Soul Cultivator who had lived for hundreds of years, he was very cautious in his actions and was unwilling to act rashly before clearly understanding the other’s background to avoid bringing calamity upon himself.
"Patriarch Lei Ze of the Lei Family?"
"Was it your Lei Family that wiped out the Lu Family?"
Jiang Fan squinted his eyes, staring at the middle-aged man in the black robe.
He naturally had some understanding of the Lei Family, the enemies of his Dao Companion, Lu Youyou.
The Nascent Soul Lei Family consisted of three major Nascent Soul members: the Patriarch Lei Ze, and two Supreme Elders, Lei Shaoyou and Lei Lingwen, the latter of which were reportedly a Late-stage and a Mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, respectively.
So, the Lei Family as a Nascent Soul Clan was truly thriving.
After all, Nascent Soul Clans in the Black Dragon Sea Region usually only had one Nascent Soul as a guardian.
But the Lei Family had three Nascent Souls, which spoke volumes about their flourishing destiny.
This formidable nature was also related to the Lei Family’s style of conduct.
It’s said that they often plundered other Cultivators, robbing them of their resources.
The number of families exterminated by the Lei Family was significant.
The Lu Family was one such family; when the Lei Family set their eyes on the Lu Family’s treasures and resources, they decided to act against them.
As a result, the Lei Family obtained a vast amount of Cultivation Resources, and the foundation and destiny of the family continued to rise.
But undoubtedly, the Lei Family was now at a turning point, like cooking in hot oil or adorning flowers with brocade.
If it weren’t for this, they wouldn’t have encountered him at this moment.
Clearly, the calamity of their Thunder Tribulation had arrived.
"What do you mean? Is fellow Daoist an old acquaintance of the Lu Family?"
The Lei Family Patriarch Lei Ze’s pupils contracted; he hadn’t expected that a randomly encountered Nascent Soul Cultivator would have a connection with the Lu Family. If this were true, then he might be in some trouble.
He couldn’t help but take a few steps back, maintaining a certain distance from Jiang Fan, to prevent the other party from suddenly attacking.
"Lei Ze Daoist, what’s there to talk about with this brat?"
"Since he is an enemy, he should naturally be killed without mercy."
"It’s just right to slaughter this kid and seize those Dragon Blood Fruits."
The bald Nascent Soul Cultivator next to him spoke with murderous intent, his body exuding a terrifying killing aura, clearly eager to kill and rob the treasures.
After all, now that they were three Nascent Souls and the other was just one, the advantage was naturally on their side.
He wasn’t bothered about what identity the other held.
In his eyes, this kid was just a walking treasure vault.
If he could kill him, he would surely profit immensely.
The reason he was able to cultivate from a mere Loose Cultivator to a third-layer Nascent Soul was because of continuous killing and robbing others of their treasures.
In the Cultivation Realm, it was a bloody jungle society.
"That’s right, this kid looks a bit off."
"He doesn’t seem to be any Nascent Soul we know, and it’s unclear how he gained entry to the Flame Dragon Secret Realm."
"This guy must carry a great secret; it’s better to kill him."
The remaining gray-robed Nascent Soul Cultivator also harbored killing intent.
Undoubtedly, his thoughts were more deliberate, feeling that this young Nascent Soul Cultivator in front didn’t appear on any Nascent Soul list of the Zhao Family, probably entering the Flame Dragon Secret Realm from elsewhere.
This suggested that besides the entrances and exits known by the Zhao Family, there might be others.
If he could learn the secret from this kid, he wouldn’t need to rely on the Zhao Family in the future, allowing them easy access in and out of the Flame Dragon Secret Realm.
In this way, they might reap significant benefits and opportunities from the Flame Dragon Secret Realm.
It might even provide enough Cultivation Resources to reach Divinity Transformation.
The Zhao Family’s ancestor rose to fame in such a way, and he, too, might achieve the same.
"Kill."
Upon hearing this, Lei Ze was overjoyed; he hadn’t expected both his companions to harbor killing intent, freeing him from any concerns.
It seemed that this kid was courting death, daring to cause trouble for him.
