Chapter 798: Raising an Army to Punish the Crime 1
After hearing this, Yun Xi snorted coldly and said:

"Want the Xuanlei Purple Flame? You've got some nerve. This strange flame doesn't even bear the mark of the Lei family."

Yu Ling merely curled the corners of her lips and said:

"In the early years, after our ancestor ascended to the Spirit Realm, he had some disagreements with the Lei family. Now, they are shamelessly following us all the way from the Cloud Sea, saying they want to find out the cause of death of the Lei family's direct descendants. Coincidentally, you are the last person to see Lei Jingchen, so your excuse is quite sufficient, and our ancestor cannot forcefully stop you."

Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and said:
"Master, does the Ancestor mean I should give way to the Lei family?"

"How is this possible? The ancestor told you to do what you were supposed to do. What does the life or death of the Lei family's direct descendants have to do with you? Besides, you were not sent to the Demon Realm voluntarily. The fact that you survived only proves that you are capable. Even if the Lei family wants to seek justice, they will not be able to find you."

Although Yu Ling was aloof, he strongly supported his disciple. Moreover, the patriarch and the Lei family had a history of conflict, so he spoke very directly.

Yunxi smiled and replied:

"Disciple knows what to do."

"The Ancestor was impatient to deal with the Lei family, so he had Hao Hui, who had just come out of seclusion, receive them. You can go to the main hall to see them yourself. I need to return to the 'Hive'. There have been two strange events in the Cloud Sea, and a lot of information has been sent back. I need to filter through it to see if I can find the whereabouts of the evil cultivators."

"Master, you've worked hard!"

Yunxi stuck out her tongue inwardly. She had caused both of these unusual events directly or indirectly, and she hadn't expected to increase her master's workload. She immediately and respectfully saw her master off.

Yu Ling merely curled the corners of her lips as she turned around before disappearing into Lingxue Peak.

Yunxi also turned and left Lingxue Peak, heading to the main hall of Haoran Peak. What was bound to happen would eventually happen.

Hao Hui, who had just broken through to the early stage of the Void Refinement realm, had only emerged from seclusion three days ago. He had originally planned to go out for training, but was conscripted by Sect Leader Yu Geng.

Yu Geng's original words were:

"Lord Haohui, things are different now. Our entire sect has moved to the Spirit Realm, and I, the sect leader who has not yet broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, am not up to the task."

Now only Haoran Zhenzun is holding things together. Ranxi has gone out to train again. You, Haoyi, Haoyan, and Haoqing have all gone into seclusion to seek breakthroughs. After Yuling came out of seclusion, she took charge of the 'Hive' and the Law Enforcement Hall.

"I'm under a lot of pressure. Now that you've just emerged from seclusion, I'd like to trouble you to temporarily assume the position of sect leader so that I can also go into seclusion and attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."

Since things had come to this point, Hao Hui naturally couldn't refuse, so he temporarily assumed the responsibility of sect leader. Yu Geng, on the other hand, went into seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, as his disciples' cultivation levels would likely surpass his if he didn't break through soon.

After returning, Patriarch Haoran left the troublesome affairs of the Lei family to Haohui, while he himself waved his sleeves and went to the back mountain to find some peace and quiet.

So when Yunxi stepped into the main hall, she saw that the acting sect leader Haohui was propping his head up and talking casually with a male cultivator below him, as if they didn't see eye to eye.

At this moment, the three Lei family disciples inside the hall were casting curious glances at Yun Xi, as this was the first time they had seen this prodigy of the Haoran Sect face to face.

Yunxi was also observing the two men and one woman in the hall. The one sitting was clearly the person in charge of the Lei family this time. He was a male cultivator at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm, wearing a dark purple robe. His upright and dignified face exuded an air of authority without anger, but his eyes shone with a sharp light.

The remaining two Nascent Soul stage cultivators, a man and a woman, stood behind the man. The two had similar faces, indicating a blood relationship. They were clearly junior disciples of the Lei family, wearing light purple robes, and were also looking at Yun Xi.

Hao Hui watched Yun Xi walk in unhurriedly and then spoke:

"Ranxi, you've emerged from seclusion?"

Yunxi replied with a smile:

"I just came out of seclusion. My master said someone wanted to see me and asked me to come to the main hall."

After saying that, he sat down quite naturally opposite the three of them, raising a handsome eyebrow as he said:

"These three must be the ones who want to see the real person!"

The leading male cultivator's fingers, hidden in his sleeves, clenched instantly, then relaxed. He stood up, cupped his hands, and said:

"I am Lei Jingxiang from the Lei family of the Spirit Realm. These are Lei Wanjun and Lei Wanlu, junior disciples of the Lei family." The two young juniors immediately bowed respectfully, showing proper etiquette.

Yun Xi smiled and said:

"Sit down. Since you're here, you're guests of the Haoran Sect. May I ask what brings you to see me?"

Lei Jingxiang felt a bit of pressure, and after carefully considering his words, he finally spoke:

"I heard that Your Excellency Ranxi recently went to the Demon Realm, seemingly with Lei Jingchen. In the end, only Your Excellency returned safely to the Cloud Sky Sea. I wonder if Your Excellency knows how the Lei family disciple who accompanied you is doing?"

Yun Xi sighed and said:

"They all perished in the traps set by the evil cultivators in the demon realm. I remember finding their corpses in the array set up by the evil cultivators. I wonder if you have gone to claim them."

Lei Jingxiang pursed his lips and said:

"We only recovered the bodies of Jingchen's two guards, Lei Yu and Lei Cun, but not Lei Jingchen's."

Yunxi said with a helpless expression:

"It seems Lei Jingchen was unlucky. He was probably sucked into the array set up by the evil cultivator, becoming the power that nurtured the soul of the evil god. His body should have already turned into bones."

Lei Wanjun, unable to contain himself any longer, suddenly spoke up:

"Your Excellency Ranxi, we are both cultivators from the Spirit Realm, how can you stand by and watch someone die without offering help?"

Lei Jingxiang immediately reprimanded:

"Wan Jun, shut up! It's not your place to question Her Majesty Ranxi."

Yunxi merely glanced at Lei Wanjun, a hint of pink flashing in his eyes, before he lowered his head, took a step back, and dared not speak again.

Lei Jingxiang immediately cupped his hands and said:

"Please don't be offended, Your Majesty! He's just worried and confused."

Yunxi wasn't angry, but her tone became slightly indifferent as she said:
“What the younger generation of the Lei family said is right. As fellow cultivators of the Spirit Realm, it is indeed not right for me to stand by and watch someone die. However, I did not go with Lei Jingchen voluntarily. Instead, I was forcibly taken to the Demon Realm to explore the so-called treasure land after my dantian was sealed.”

Upon hearing this, not only did the three members of the Lei family lose their nonchalant expression, but Hao Hui also dropped his nonchalant demeanor, scanning the three with his divine sense before finally fixing his scrutinizing gaze on Lei Jingxiang.

Lei Jingxiang quickly stood up and said with a serious expression:

"What makes you say that, Venerable Ranxi? Jing Chen's strength is below yours, so how could he seal your dantian? There must be some misunderstanding."

Yunxi explained very patiently:

"If I were to face him head-on, I would indeed have the strength to kill him. If I were to be slain by his sword, it would be because I am less skilled than him and I have no one to blame but myself. What is disgusting about Lei Jingchen is that he used drugs on me and also invited Chu Qing, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, as a helper. His guards Lei Yu and Lei Cun are accomplices."

They had their eyes on me when I left the Demon Realm Cloud Hidden City. The reason they drugged and forced me was that I had not lost my primordial yin.

If you encountered a cultivator like this, would you step in to save him?

Lei Wanlu's face had already turned red. As a fellow female cultivator, she naturally understood what it meant to have her primordial yin intact, especially for a high-level cultivator like Venerable Ranxi.

Lei Jingxiang hurriedly spoke:

"Your Excellency, Jingchen would never do such a despicable thing."
