For Desabeling Red underline you can put like

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"

or

android:inputType="textVisiblePassword" 

and for removing blue line this may help.

android:background="@null"

Example

   <com.example.lineedittextdemo.LineEditText
    android:id="@+id/edit_story"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_margin="20dp"
    android:background="@null"
    android:inputType="textMultiLine|textNoSuggestions"
    android:minLines="10"
    android:singleLine="false"
    android:imeOptions="actionNone"
    android:text="Story : \n" />
