Chapter 40 - Chapter 39. Heart-to-Heart Talk

When it comes to the geniuses of Leiyun Prefecture, Fatty almost instantly enters a state.

"First of all, let's talk about the Lei family of our prefectural lord. The younger generation of the Lei family has three men and one woman. Among the three young masters of the Lei family, only the third young master is still cultivating at Leiyun Academy. As for where the eldest and second young masters are now and what realm their cultivation has reached, there is no news from the outside world."

"Finally, there is that eldest lady of the Lei family. The eldest lady of the Lei family is named Lei Qingqing. She is only sixteen years old now, but she is a genius at the great accomplishment stage of True Yuan Realm. It is said that her talent is even above that of her three elder brothers. And in this recruitment of Leiyun Academy, she will also be one of the new students."

All these situations were inquired by him at a considerable price. Originally, they were only for his own use. But now that he has made friends with Yunxiao, he naturally has to share them.

"Lei Qingqing? I have indirectly come into contact with her once already." Hearing Fatty's introduction, Yunxiao immediately thought of the special carriage he saw in the morning. If there is no mistake, the carriage pulled by the one-horned rhinoceros should contain the eldest lady of the Lei family, Lei Qingqing.

"Brother, the Lei family is the most powerful family in Leiyun Prefecture. You have to remember that Lei Qingqing must not be provoked. In the future, when we enter Leiyun Academy, we'd better stay as far away from her as possible."

Fatty is not just talking for fun. He has done so much homework just to fully grasp in his heart those existences in Leiyun Prefecture that must absolutely not be provoked, so as to avoid accidentally offending one of them and then being unable to gain a foothold in Leiyun Academy.

"Don't worry, I know the measure." Nodding, Yunxiao naturally understands the principle. Even if Fatty didn't say it, he also knows who can be provoked and who must not be provoked at all.

"Besides the Lei family, there are several big families in Leiyun Prefecture that are also not to be provoked. And among them, the one that is most not to be provoked is the Wu family, the number one business family in Leiyun Prefecture."

After briefly mentioning the Lei family, Fatty changes the topic and immediately talks about the next family. When he mentions the Wu family, his expression is obviously more solemn than before.

"The number one business family? It sounds like they should be very rich?"

"Not just rich. According to everyone's speculation, the background of this Wu family is probably much richer than that of the Lei family. Even the prefectural lord of Leiyun Prefecture has to rely on the Wu family to maintain the business order of Leiyun Prefecture. To put it bluntly, Leiyun Prefecture can change a prefectural lord, but it cannot replace the Wu family."

"So powerful?" Yunxiao's mind is swayed. Only then does he realize the horror of this Wu family.

When he was in Hongluan Town, he understood what a rich family background meant. A big family with a rich background means that it can provide a large amount of resources for the young people of the family to cultivate, thus giving birth to remarkable geniuses.

"The reputation of the number one genius in Leiyun Prefecture actually falls on the head of someone from the Wu family." Without waiting for Yunxiao to ask, Fatty continues to talk on his own.

"The leading figure of this generation of the Wu family is named Wu Wutian. At the age of fifteen, he was already a strong person at the great accomplishment stage of True Yuan Realm. Now he should be just seventeen years old and is also a new student about to enter Leiyun Academy this year."

Lei Qingqing and Wu Wutian are the two people he focuses on investigating. He has always been very confident in himself, but he never thought of opposing these two people. Because judging from the power behind these two people, destroying him is probably as easy as moving a finger.

Coincidentally, these two people will enter Leiyun Academy this year. I don't know if there will be some intersections.

"A True Yuan Realm great accomplishment martial artist at the age of fifteen? This... There is actually such a perverted guy?"

Twitching the corner of his mouth, Yunxiao is really shocked this time.

Since coming to Leiyun Prefecture, his vision has been broadened again and again. He thought that a sixteen-year-old True Yuan Realm great accomplishment martial artist was already the limit, but unexpectedly, a fifteen-year-old genius at the great accomplishment stage suddenly emerged.

Compared with that kind of genius, his promotion to the True Yuan Realm at the age of sixteen is simply too ordinary.

"By the way, I heard that there is another genius in the Wu family, and it's also a girl."

"Another genius? Is she even more powerful than that Wu Wutian?"

"That's not the case. This woman is named Wu Qingya. Speaking of it, she is an ordinary woman who doesn't know martial arts. However, this eldest lady of the Wu family is born with a business mind. A large part of the Wu family's business is already controlled by her. Even the Wu family's annual auction is now in her charge."

Fatty knows that Yunxiao is probably misunderstanding, so he quickly explains.

"A genius merchant? This can also be regarded as an alternative kind of genius, but it has nothing to do with us."

Business and trading are still relatively far away from him. Presumably, he won't provoke that eldest lady of the Wu family.

"How can it be irrelevant? The Wu family's autumn auction is tomorrow, and the host is precisely Wu Qingya. I have already thought about it. Tomorrow I will take you to the auction to take a look. Maybe we can even see Wu Qingya up close."

Speaking of this, a flash of unnoticeable brightness suddenly appears in Fatty's eyes, and no one knows exactly what he is thinking!

"The Wu family's auction? Tomorrow?" Hearing what Fatty said, he can't help being a little tempted. Because he believes that judging from the status of the Wu family in Leiyun Prefecture, the auction items will definitely not be ordinary items. Even if he can't afford them, he can still feast his eyes, right?

"Anyway, I have nothing to do tomorrow. In that case, I'll accompany you to broaden my horizons." Smack his lips, Yunxiao directly agrees.

"Good. You won't come in vain." Seeing Yunxiao agree to go to the auction with him, Fatty is overjoyed. "Okay, basically, this is all I know about the Lei family and the Wu family. In the next time, I will tell you about some well-known figures in Leiyun Prefecture and the towns under its jurisdiction. I hope it can be helpful to you."

"Glad to hear it!" Yunxiao finds that making friends with Fatty is simply a help from heaven. If there were no Fatty, he would probably still be a country boy who knows nothing until he joins Leiyun Academy! And now with Fatty's help, he is no longer completely ignorant of Leiyun Prefecture.

In the next time, Fatty tells Yunxiao one by one the intelligence he has mastered about this batch of new students, as well as those big families and powerful forces in Leiyun Prefecture. As long as he knows, he tells Yunxiao all of them. In this way, although Yunxiao has just come to Leiyun Prefecture not long ago, he basically has a superficial understanding of the general situation of Leiyun Prefecture.

When drinking with a bosom friend, a thousand cups are too few. The two of them drink and chat, and it is not until sunset that they finish. After spending half a day together, Yunxiao and Fatty can be regarded as friends who have nothing to hide from each other.
