You... You're Xiao Meng? (Please Recommend and Bookmark)

"Die!"

Jia Lie Nu's gaze turned icy as he shot forward. The powerful Dou Qi within him surged forth madly, gathering in his palm to form a palm print the size of a millstone.

The palm wind was heavy and carried terrifying force as it ruthlessly struck toward Xiao Meng's chest.

"Old bastard, I'll give you a big one!"

As Xiao Meng's shout fell, the thunder-light battle array immediately blazed with radiance. Endless lightning surged out, illuminating the surroundings. Then, a dragon's roar seemed to resound through heaven and earth, incomparably majestic and imposing, making people unable to summon the will to resist.

A thunder dragon roared out from the light array, tearing through the sky as fast as lightning and fiercely blasting toward Jia Lie Nu.

"Damn it! What level of Dou Technique is this? How can it possess such terrifying power?"

Jia Lie Nu watched the dragon-shaped creature rapidly enlarge in his pupils, and his expression changed drastically. The thunder dragon's strength made his heart pound in fear, and he felt the urge to retreat.

But when he tried to withdraw, he discovered that he had already been firmly locked in place. There was nowhere to retreat.

Boom!

With no path of retreat, he could only meet it head-on. Powerful Dou Qi swept out of Jia Lie Nu's body without restraint, forming a layer of blue armor over him. It gave off an indestructible feeling.

Dou Qi armor—releasing Dou Qi externally. This was the distinctive mark of a Da Dou Shi.

Bang!

The thunder dragon smashed through Jia Lie Nu's palm print like breaking rotten wood before fiercely striking his body. Violent thunder power erupted, and Jia Lie Nu seemed to have been hit by an immense force. His body was instantly sent flying, skidding across the ground for over a hundred meters before finally stopping.

A faint sweetness rose in his throat, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

But when he saw that the Dou Qi armor on his body had not shattered, he could not help but sigh in relief. This meant that his opponent was not so overwhelmingly strong that he could not be defeated.

Crack!

However, before he could fully relax, a sound like shattering glass came from his body, causing his expression to change sharply.

Jia Lie Nu abruptly lowered his head to look at his Dou Qi armor. Cracks had appeared around his chest, rapidly spreading like a spiderweb.

Bang!

When the cracks spread to a certain extent, the blue Dou Qi armor exploded, shooting fragments in every direction before dissolving into energy in the air.

Jia Lie Nu's face was full of horror and disbelief.

Yet Xiao Meng was not having an easy time either. In The Great Ruler, Mu Chen had used this array with the strength of the mid-stage Spirit Wheel Realm to kill Yang Gui of the Divine Soul Realm.

In other words, Mu Chen had roughly used the strength of a five- or six-star Dou Zhe to kill a Da Dou Shi expert with this array.

However, Xiao Meng's cultivation at the moment was nowhere near as powerful as that of a five- or six-star Dou Zhe. Moreover, Yang Gui was a level weaker than Jia Lie Nu. If not for the Origin Energy within him being more advanced than spiritual energy and Dou Qi, along with the aid of the Chaos Green Lotus in his body, it would have been difficult for him to create such a shocking situation.

Seeing the blue armor disappear, Jia Lie Nu's body trembled slightly, and unease rose in his heart. He looked up at Xiao Meng, the corners of his mouth twitching fiercely. This half-grown boy actually possessed strength comparable to a Da Dou Shi?

He simply could not believe what he was seeing or experiencing.

In Wutan City, anyone who broke through to become a Dou Zhe before the age of twenty was a one-in-ten-thousand genius. Then what was someone who broke through to Da Dou Shi before turning twenty? A monster? A freakish genius?

Even those words were no longer enough to describe him.

Slowly exhaling, Jia Lie Nu produced a dark-blue spear out of thin air. Faint blue Dou Qi seeped from his body and poured into the spear.

"Who exactly are you?" Jia Lie Nu held his spear at an angle and stared intently at Xiao Meng. His heart was heavy, because he was not confident he could kill Xiao Meng.

But those who came with good intentions did not lurk about, and those who lurked about did not come with good intentions. Since the other party had intercepted them here in the dead of night, how could he possibly let them leave so easily?

"The one here to take your dog life," Xiao Meng said flatly.

Jia Lie Nu's expression shifted slightly. He took a deep breath and said, "Does Your Excellency have some grievance against my Gale Clan? If so, I am willing to apologize here. I will certainly present a generous gift in the future. I only hope that Your Excellency will make way today."

Xiao Meng curled his lips. "You want to leave? Sure. Kneel down, kowtow three times, bark like a dog ten times, then crawl around this mountain for one thousand and one nights."

Hearing this, Jia Lie Nu's face turned livid. He had figured it out now. No matter how much he gave ground today, this person would never allow him to leave.

"You... you're from the Xiao Clan?" Jia Lie Nu suddenly seemed to think of something and cried out in alarm.

"Yeah, I'm from the Xiao Clan."

Xiao Meng froze for a moment before directly admitting it. He laughed lightly. "You can recognize me even with my face covered? Aren't you amazing? I admire you so much."

Jia Lie Nu: "..."

He began to wonder whether this guy was really from the Xiao Clan.

In the end, he rejected that thought. The Gale Clan and the Xiao Clan had not known each other for only a few days. They were old enemies who had fought for more than a century. Thus, the Gale Clan could be said to know the Xiao Clan's Dou Techniques and experts like the back of their hand.

Furthermore, Xiao Meng had admitted it without the slightest hesitation, making Jia Lie Nu even more suspicious.

And if this person truly were from the Xiao Clan, there would have been no need for him to cover his face. The two clans had already reached the point of fighting to the death. Covering his face would simply be unnecessary.

"Must Your Excellency truly oppose my Gale Clan?" Jia Lie Nu twisted the spear in his hand sharply. Dou Qi radiance bloomed at the spear tip, and bursts of spear hums actually rang out.

"Are you fucking brain-dead? Why the fuck are you asking such pointless questions?" Xiao Meng sighed. The side characters in the Battle Through the Heavens world were all so stupid. It was hard for him to show off his own high intelligence.

Now he could be one hundred percent certain that his protagonist halo definitely had the effect of lowering other people's intelligence. He really did not like that.

Jia Lie Nu gripped his spear tightly and stared fixedly at Xiao Meng. Then, without warning, he launched his attack. He suddenly stomped the ground, his body shooting into the sky like a blue bolt of lightning.

"Wave Overlap!"

Jia Lie Nu shouted. From within the spear wrapped in blue light, layer upon layer of huge blue waves formed from energy instantly surged out, soaring into the sky.

Wave Overlap, a low-grade Profound-class Dou Technique, was the strongest Dou Technique Jia Lie Nu had mastered thus far. Moreover, he had already cultivated it to the point of perfection.

When the four-star Da Dou Shi Jia Lie Nu used a Profound-class Dou Technique, even a five-star Da Dou Shi would not dare contend with him lightly. Even a six-star Da Dou Shi would not dare underestimate him.

"Die, you little bastard!"

The blue waves swept forward, making the earth tremble. Within those waves, a tiny gleam suddenly flared brightly—it was the spear tip.

The incomparably brilliant spear tip shot rapidly toward Xiao Meng's glabella.

"Gale dog, your mother told you to go home and bring in the laundry!"

Xiao Meng shouted, then forcefully clapped his palms together. The light array behind him trembled violently, as though some ferocious beast was about to burst out of it.

Roar!

Just as Jia Lie Nu's spear tip was still about ten feet away from Xiao Meng's forehead, a tiger's earthshaking roar rang out. Immediately afterward, a two- to three-zhang thunder tiger charged out from the light array, carrying powerful lightning energy as it pounced toward Jia Lie Nu.

Bang!

The two attacks collided fiercely, producing a deafening explosion. Extremely violent energy swept through the sky, and the dazzling flash made everyone instinctively close their eyes.

Screech!

Jia Lie Nu's body was sent flying backward. Only after carving a deep furrow dozens of meters long in the ground did he finally stop. Yet the moment he came to a halt, his body shook violently. A muffled groan came from his throat, and he could no longer suppress the burning blood that sprayed from his mouth.

He had clearly suffered serious internal injuries.

"Damn it, a Da Dou Shi really is a Da Dou Shi. That strength is no joke."

Xiao Meng's blood and Qi churned within him. Driving the Nine Heavens Thunder Battle Array at full power was also becoming too much for him.

Seeing this, the other guards of the Gale Clan stiffened, their faces filled with astonishment. The Second Elder, a four-star Da Dou Shi, had still lost even after using a Profound-class Dou Technique at full strength?

"His stamina is nearly exhausted. Go! Kill him while you have the chance!" Seeing the trace of bright red blood at the corner of Xiao Meng's mouth, Jia Lie Nu knew that his opponent was not much stronger than himself.

However, Xiao Meng did not care. He took out a pitch-black stick-like object and placed it between his lips. If Xiao Yan had been here, he would certainly have recognized it, because it was something unique to Earth—a cigar.

Clink!

Xiao Meng took out an exquisite lighter, golden all over as though it were made of gold. With a light press, it gave off a crisp sound, as pleasant as the voice of a young woman.

"I'll smoke a cigar to refresh myself first."

Inhale!

Xiao Meng took a deep puff and immediately felt refreshed and clear-headed.

"As expected of the finest cigars on Earth," Xiao Meng said with a sigh.

"You... you're Xiao Meng?"
