Myths Begin From Boys' Gong

Chapter 2017 Difficulties, Changes (Subscription Request)

Lei Chongmao was very unwelcome to these people coming from Yujing City, but he also knew that he could not afford to offend them. At least they were from the same Beitang royal camp, but not in the center of political power. Instead, they were the Lei family, who was far away in another state, and he could not afford to offend them.

Lei Wanche's move did not mean that he would really sacrifice his life to bring these people out safely, but he still had to make a necessary gesture.

"Don't be rude to these people. I intend to select a marriage partner from the forces behind them."

When Lei Chongmao heard the word "marriage", he couldn't hold it in any longer and said, feeling a little irritated and embarrassed.

"Why are you bringing this up suddenly? Is it necessary for our Lei family to use such a method to win over the forces? Isn't Beitang Shu enough?"

He is a tall and strong man. Although he was born into a noble family, he has always been rigorous and self-disciplined. He likes reading and practicing martial arts. He never indulges in beauty and pleasure. He doesn't like the practice of relying on marriage and using one's marriage and happiness to calculate and seek benefits. He really doesn't like it.

In particular, the Lei family's past strategies and policies have never deviated in this direction. The family is not without marriage partners, but they are either small local forces or some merchant families. The main influence is still the will of the Beitang royal family.

Why has the Meng family always been disliked, unaccepted, and even repeatedly suppressed by the Beitang royal family?

No, he is still not honest. He jumps up and down, and forms secret cliques through marriage. He is involved with the Nine Surnames and the Thirteen Holy Lands. The forces at the next level are innumerable. Even if they are not on good terms with each other for generations, the corresponding network does exist.

This is a manifestation of dishonesty. It keeps growing stronger and absorbing the power of the dynasty to strengthen itself. It is a blood-sucking worm.

But now Lei Wanche actually wants him to have an alliance marriage like the Meng family did. It is really too abrupt.

Lei Wanche had a complicated expression on his face. It was hard to tell whether it was regret, unwillingness, or relief. He said,

"Times have changed. In the past, the Beitang Imperial Family sat firmly on the throne. Even though other holy places attacked and shared the imperial power, they were still the undisputed overlord. It was the right idea for us to rely on the Beitang Imperial Family, strengthen ourselves, and avoid being feared by them.

But now, the world is in chaos. Not to mention the north, there are rebellions in the south and the west.

The Beitang royal family is no longer the only option, and it may not be able to maintain its rule forever, so we must find a way out for ourselves in advance.

Marriage is one aspect.”

In fact, if possible, he would rather the Lei family was a force like the Meng family, where they could be their own masters. Who would be willing to be a dog for others?

Unfortunately, the Lei family’s rise came a long way late. They were not among the founding nobles, and they did not receive enough power from it.

"If that's the case, why choose someone from the Beitang royal family? Is there any meaning in that?"

This is actually what puzzles Lei Chongmao the most.

Since you are determined to break with past traditions, just cut it off cleanly.

What's the point of cutting off ties now?

What's more, this secret cave has to be shared with Beitang Shu. It is unknown who will own it in the future, making it difficult for young people to weigh the pros and cons.

"Because the Beitang royal family is only unstable now, not about to collapse, so when choosing a marriage partner, we must also consider the Beitang royal family's ideas. We are only taking the first step now. If there is an opportunity in the future, it is not impossible to make friends with more forces."

Lei Wanche sees things very clearly. His relationship with the Beitang royal family is a constant tug of war. It cannot be too loose, nor too tight. He has to retain a little bit of autonomy, but also gain the protection of the Beitang royal family. This is a test of one's personal skills.

Coincidentally, he was an expert at pulling, and he felt there was nothing wrong with this step.

The only thing that cannot be guaranteed is how long this tug of war can protect the Lei family.

Meng Zhao is a rising star with great ambitions. He is definitely not someone who can be easily dealt with.

The Meng family is a clandestine clan with deep roots and ulterior motives, and they are not loyal people.

If he really predicts the future, Lei Wanche suspects that Meng Zhao and the Meng family will most likely be the cause of the destruction of Dayong in the future, and may even be the new ruler of Shenzhou and the powerful contender for the new dynasty. There is no way, Meng Zhao is too supermodel, and always gives Lei Wanche a feeling that he was born for the times.

If God gave Meng Zhao such a mission, he, the Lei family, and even the Beitang royal family would all be defeated sooner or later.

But at least, Lei Wanche cannot just give up and do nothing, allowing the worst outcome to happen.

Therefore, they contacted Beitang Shu and shared the secret realm of Dongtian in order to strengthen the connection between the two parties, obtain protection, seek marriage, expand relationships and connections, and prepare for the future.

In response to Lei Wanche's statement, Lei Chongmao did not say much, which was also a tacit attitude.

However, Lei Wanche also brought a surprise to Lei Chongmao.

“Also, I have used a connection to invite two great masters to join the exploration of the secret realm of the cave. It is estimated that these two people will arrive soon. You must warn your men not to do anything unwise.

These two people are warriors from the Yinshan lineage. Now that the Yinshan lineage has not yet emerged, these two people should be wandering cultivators.

If we can recruit our Lei family, it will be of great benefit to improving our strength and foundation.

You have to be smarter too."

This is finally a good news among so many bad news.

Lei Chongmao was quite curious.

"Were these two also invited by the Ninth Prince?"

Although he is the son of Lei Wanche, he knows very little about the Lei family's secrets, background, and even the hidden power relationships.

This has to do with the family style of the Lei family.

But at least, he knew that the Meng family was not as simple as it seemed. Their strength might actually be above that of the Lei family, and they might even catch up with the Nine Surnames. Especially after Meng Zhao's sudden emergence, they had more capital. If time was given to the Meng family, it was only a matter of time before they surpassed some of the lower ranked families of the Nine Surnames.

The Lei family is actually not weak, but after all, they are not as good at scheming as the Meng family, and they didn't produce such a genius.

But it is by no means as simple as it appears.

For example, the Lei family actually secretly trained 20,000 private troops. This was an extremely secret matter, and Lei Chongmao was only informed of this by Lei Wanche not long ago.

Lei Wanche looked at Lei Chongmao meaningfully and said,

"No, but there is some connection between the two. Can you guess?"

Lei Chongmao was about to shake his head when suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he suddenly realized:

"Yes, Emperor?"

He uttered the word "Emperor" in a low voice.

"Sure enough, I can rely on the Ninth Prince and the Emperor. After all, they are all members of the Beitang royal family!

Don't worry. In the next few days, I will tell you the secrets of the Lei family one by one. Once anything unexpected happens to me in the secret realm of Dongtian, you will immediately inherit the position of Marquis Beining. At the same time, you will serve Beitang Shu and offer this secret realm of Dongtian to you. This will temporarily maintain the reputation of the Lei family.

But after that, you must quietly split up the Lei family, disperse and hide some of the direct bloodline clansmen, accumulate property, martial arts, and heritage, and use them as capital for the Lei family's future revival."
