C270 Someone's Coming

"Little Wan, what's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden? " Zheng Lei asked.

"Wuu wuu ~, Wan-Er is useless. I can't help you no matter what …" Hu Wan sobbed.

Zheng Lei's heart warmed and said, "Little Wan, don't cry anymore. Brother will be very happy if you can keep thinking about him. And who said you didn't help me?" Weren't there a few times when it was Wan'er who helped, allowing me to escape from this difficult situation? Have you forgotten? "

Hearing Zheng Lei's comforting words, Hu Xiaowan choked with sobs as she asked, "Then does brother dislike me?"

Zheng Lei feigned anger: "What are you saying, little girl? "Since when did brother dislike you?"

The little fox gave a blissful smile and sat down to reflect on it.

Turning his head, Zheng Lei said to Lin Xi, "Cousin, how about we go out and investigate?"

Lin Xi looked at Zheng Lei, and after a long while, she curled her lips and said, "Forget it, it's better if Wan'er and I go out. No matter what, Wan's invisibility is better than yours, so I'm not at ease with taking you out. You should just stay at home."

"But …"

"But what?" Lin Xi interrupted Zheng Lei.

Zheng Lei said without confidence, "My cultivation is higher than Little Wan."

Lin Xi stared at him and said, "With just that little bit of martial arts, if someone encountered you, it would be hard to even run away, and your cultivation would be higher than my little Wan. Let me tell you, even if little Wan hasn't reached the third step, she's still better than you at the third step. Stay at home!"

Hu Wan heard that she could be of use, so she quickly followed up with Lin Xi's words, "Brother, don't worry, my sister and I are going out to investigate. Just wait for us at home. Wan-Er is actually very useful, isn't she, sister?"

Lin Xi smiled lightly and pointed at the little fox's nose. "Mm, I know that Little Wan is very obedient and sensible. Let's go!"

Hu Wan excitedly raised her fist in front of her and breathed a sigh of relief. She then turned her head towards Zheng Lei and stuck out her tongue. She then quickly followed Lin Xi out of the room.

He realized why he had been living under the protection of a woman this entire time. No matter what, he was still a man, but now it seemed that he was the leader of the female soldiers.

The bored Zheng Lei stood up and walked into the courtyard. He raised his head to look at the sky. The June sky was scorching hot, but in this heat, Zheng Lei felt an endless chill behind him.

Lowering his head, Zheng Lei sighed lightly and said to himself, "The world of cultivators …" Halfway through his sentence, he did not continue, because he seemed to notice that something was wrong with the gate.

He tiptoed over to the door and gently leaned against it to peek outside.

With one look, he actually saw a few shadows outside the door. That's right, there were only a few shadows, and there was no one on the ground to match them.

What was going on? Zheng Lei's heart skipped a beat. He knew that the enemies hiding in the dark were finally about to make their move.

What should he do now? Lin Xi and Hu Xiaowang both left. Zheng Lei was the only one left in the huge courtyard. He suddenly felt that the situation was not good for him.

Zheng Lei quietly moved to the side and slowly made his way to the house. Along the way, he tried to avoid the crack in the door, afraid that the enemy would see him through it.

The moment he returned to his room, Zheng Lei hurriedly took out all the items from his storage bag to see if he had anything else he could use.

After looking through it once, Zheng Lei felt an unprecedented sense of poverty. In his own storage bag, other than the set of cooking matters, all that was left were the karmic ruler with a few unsuitable talismans for combat.

"Damn!" Am I that poor? "How can I deal with so many people outside alone now?" After saying that, he helplessly put away his things, grabbed his karmic ruler and opened a crack in his room. Then, he grabbed his karmic ruler and looked outside.

For a long time, Zheng Lei didn't see a single shadow come through the gap in the door.

He felt puzzled. Seeing that his enemies had already arrived at the door, he couldn't possibly only send his regards, right? No matter what, she should at least rush in here and fight him, right? Could it be that while they were out scouting others, others also wanted to scout them?

After looking for a while, Zheng Lei suddenly felt as if the sky had turned dark. When he raised his head to look, he couldn't help but be shocked.

A lantern like ball of light covered the entire house. The shadow outside the ball of light was the same as the one he had just seen. Moreover, the number of shadows was not the same as the ones he had seen earlier.

These shadows lay outside the sphere of light, in piles, like dark clouds.

"Damn!" It actually attacked from above. No wonder even after looking for a long time, I still couldn't see anyone enter. " Zheng Lei said in a low voice.

Looking at the nail in his hand, this was his only weapon and he could not easily throw it out. If the enemy could take it, then he would not have anything suitable to attack with.

Zheng Lei quickly prepared the Five Thunder Righteous Bestowal Spell. With the current situation, it was more suitable for long-range attacks. The Five Thunder Righteous Bestowal Spell that he had learned just so happened to be a close-range attack. "Five Thunder Righteous Bestowal Spell!"

After a moment of preparation, a bolt of lightning energy condensed in Zheng Lei's hand. He gently pulled open the door of the room and suddenly shot out towards the sky. In the blink of an eye, the bolt of lightning struck the ball of light.

The shadow formed on the ball of light was hit by the lightning and a hole was created, revealing the bright sky outside. When Zheng Lei saw that it worked, he was so happy that his right hand repeatedly slapped outwards.

Thunder balls flew out from the house and struck the light barrier in the sky outside, turning it into a large pile of black shadows. They were riddled with holes, like a tattered cotton blanket.

After fighting for a while, Zheng Lei stopped to catch his breath. He looked at the shadow outside which was riddled with holes and was quite excited. He happily said to himself: "This is just some bullshit. I didn't even use any strength, yet it turned out to be this much!"

As he spoke, Zheng Lei smacked his palm outwards. With this smack, a feeble and weak lightning bolt slowly flowed through the air like a pool of water. It slid down Zheng Lei's palm like a feather and slowly fell to the ground.

"Damn!" What was going on? "The spiritual energy has been used up!" Zheng Lei was so excited that he didn't even notice the state of his spiritual energy. He used up all of the spiritual energy in his body. He didn't even have a single talisman left, he was like a bottle that had been emptied out.
