Chapter 3013: 3013 Chapter 3013: I Might Just Be Your External Force A single stone stirred up a thousand waves. One beast’s roar immediately triggered huge waves. Countless beasts suddenly realized that someone had actually achieved Dao Venerable with an illusory-type dao. Among all the bloodlines of the beast race, there were no bloodlines of illusory-type daos at all. Only when a bloodline mutated would there be an extremely low probability of a bloodline capable of comprehending an illusory-type dao appearing. This situation had occurred only a few times in beast history, countable on one’s fingers. Mutated bloodlines couldn’t be inherited, couldn’t be passed on to the next generation. So, illusory-type daos were a legend among the beast race. Now seeing someone achieve Dao Venerable with an illusory-type dao naturally shocked all beasts. "It’s said that every being who comprehends an illusory-type dao will ultimately become a top powerhouse." "Whether they become top powerhouses or not is unknown, but becoming a seventh-level elder is certain. Moreover, their combat power is stronger than ordinary seventh-level elders, unmatched at the same level." "This Lin guy is strong enough himself, but his companion is also this strong." "Humans have a saying: birds of a feather flock together. Strong people naturally gather with other strong people." "Does this mean that Lei Hao is also very strong?" "Of course. Lei Hao is said to be a true direct descendant of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers, being groomed as a successor. He’s completely different from that Lei Xuan who was killed." Everyone was amazed by Little Mist’s dao. Lei Rong’s expression was complex at this moment. He came to Lei Hao’s side, "Lei Hao, is he your brother?" Lei Hao nodded, looking matter-of-fact, "Yes, Uncle Rong, is there a problem?" After learning that Little Mist had comprehended an illusory-type dao, Lei Hao even felt a sense of pride, as if he had comprehended the illusory dao himself. By seniority, Lei Rong was Lei Hao’s clan uncle. Normally, their relationship was neither close nor distant. Actually, Lei Hao’s status in the clan was a bit higher than Lei Rong’s, and his future development would surpass Lei Rong’s. After all, Lei Rong was also a direct descendant, and a fifth-level Dao Venerable. So under normal circumstances, Lei Hao would also be very polite to Lei Rong. Lei Rong asked, "Do you know what kind of illusory dao this is?" Lei Hao shook his head, "I’m not very clear, but if Uncle Rong wants to know, I can go ask. Given my relationship with Brother Lin, he should tell me." Lei Rong nodded, "If you can find out, that would be best. Lei Hao, Uncle Rong needs to trouble you with something." Lei Hao said, "Uncle Rong, no need to be so polite. Just say it." Lei Rong said, "After the ancestral grounds trip ends, have them stay in the city for one more day." Lei Hao immediately became alert, "Keep them for what?" He thought Lei Rong was still plotting about Lei Xuan’s death. Actually, he had thought that once the ancestral grounds trip ended, he would have Lin Moyu and the others leave immediately. In case someone came to trouble Lin Moyu, Lin Moyu would be at a disadvantage being alone. Lei Rong said, "Don’t misunderstand. Regarding Lei Xuan’s matter, I’ve understood it clearly. I’ll talk to the clan leader afterwards. There won’t be any trouble." "You know our clan’s situation. Losing a few direct descendants doesn’t matter. Moreover, Lei Xuan didn’t have a guardian behind him. His status wasn’t very high. If he’s dead, he’s dead." "Asking you to keep them here is because the clan elders have business. Your level is still low, so you don’t know some things in the clan. The clan elders have been looking for someone with an illusory-type dao." Lei Hao asked, "What business do the clan elders have?" Lei Rong shook his head, "I don’t know the specifics, but they probably need something from them. The clan elders have been searching for many years but haven’t been able to find anyone." "Your father knows about this. If you want to know, you can ask him." "Although I don’t know the specifics, it should only benefit your friend, with no downsides." Lei Hao was skeptical of Lei Rong’s words and didn’t immediately agree. Lei Rong continued, "You can tell your friend about this later. Whether to stay or not, let your friend decide, how about that?" "Also, if this matter succeeds, those clan elders will surely support you fully. Your future position will be more secure." After saying this, Lei Rong turned and left. Clan elders held high status in various beast clans. In the beast race system, the highest authority in each clan was naturally the clan leader. This was somewhat different from humans. Below the clan leader were the various clan elders. Each clan elder was a seventh-level or higher ancestor. Within beast clans, there was a distinction between direct and branch lines. Whether direct or branch, they could be further divided into countless smaller branches. Like a thousand-year-old tree root, although they would ultimately converge on the main trunk, when subdivided, they were intertwined and complex. Each clan elder had their own authority, managing various smaller branches. Each clan elder had their own favored candidate, so Lei Hao was only one of the successors, not the only one. If he could gain the support of the clan elders, Lei Hao’s position would become secure. Lei Hao knew clearly that the reason he could become one of the successors and have a guardian was because he had a clan elder supporting him behind the scenes. And there were eight such clan elders. After pondering for a while, Lei Hao flew towards Lin Moyu. The ten-thousand-meter forbidden zone didn’t exist for Lei Hao. The Number One legion commander controlled the Dragon Rider Legion to open a passage, letting Lei Hao enter. Seeing Lei Hao come over and his expression, Lin Moyu already knew something was up. "Tell me, what’s the matter?" Lin Moyu spoke directly. With Lei Hao’s personality, there was no need to beat around the bush. Lei Hao recounted what Lei Rong had just told him. Lin Moyu smiled, "Do you want me to stay or not?" Lei Hao shook his head, "I haven’t thought about it. Uncle Rong said this might benefit Brother Lin, but I don’t quite believe it." Lin Moyu smiled, "If your clan elders have really been searching for so many years, perhaps they really do need something. If I stay and can help, then your position in the clan will become much more secure, right?" Lei Hao hadn’t mentioned this earlier, but Lin Moyu knew it himself. Lei Hao spoke frankly, "Indeed. But this isn’t important. With or without the clan elders’ support, I will become the clan leader." Lin Moyu said, "Having confidence is good, but sometimes, you also need external force. For example now, I might just be your external force." "Think about it. If someone else found a person who comprehended an illusory-type dao and gained the clan elders’ support, what would you do then?" "You know your clan’s rules. You successors will have three confrontations sooner or later." "With good luck, you might survive. With bad luck, you might not keep your life." "Tell me honestly, how confident are you now that you can survive to the end?" Given Lei Hao’s original arrogance, he instinctively wanted to refute, but found he couldn’t rebut a single point. Lin Moyu was completely correct. He really didn’t have absolute confidence. Those other successor candidates weren’t inferior to him. He could only speak honestly, "Right now I have about a 60% chance." Lin Moyu made the final decision, "Then let’s increase that chance to 90% or even higher. Even if you can’t become the clan leader, you should become a clan elder. At worst, ensure that if you fail, you can still live well." "As your brother, I’ll definitely help if I can." Lin Moyu patted Lei Hao’s shoulder, making a promise. This promise made Lei Hao’s heart feel as if bathed in Nine Heavens Divine Thunder. At this moment, Lin Moyu became his brother in life and death!
