Come, I'll Light Your Cigars (Please Recommend, Please Favorite)

"Suppress them!"

The Rain Clan members roared in fury, their killing intent soaring to the heavens. Then, with utmost solemnity, they began worshipping that tattered, yellowed old sheet of paper.

Suddenly, the yellow paper began to glow. Lines of text emerged amid hazy radiance, as though a god had descended into the world. The sight was utterly astonishing.

"That divine decree represents offense. Its power far surpasses the one they brought out earlier," Xiao Tian said in shock.

Yu Wencheng sighed. "This decree was originally meant for powerful enemies coveting the Taiyi True Water. To use it now to kill a few little beasts... what a waste."

They dismissed Xiao Meng's arrogant words with disdain. They thought him ignorant. Once the divine decree displayed its might, he would learn what fear and regret truly meant.

"Big brother, what kind of treasure is that?" Hiding behind Xiao Meng, Big Red Bird stared fixedly at the AK-47 in his hand, its voice trembling.

"Bang!"

Xiao Meng was annoyed and kicked it flying.

"Clink!"

Unhurriedly, Xiao Meng took out a cigar and lit it. Smoke immediately curled upward.

Little Dot: "..."

Xiao Tian: "..."

"At a time like this, why is big brother still showing off?" Little Dot was speechless. This big brother was far too thick-skinned, and his swagger was on another level.

"Hey! Are you done yet? I'm about to fire," Xiao Meng said impatiently.

"Kill!"

This decree was too old, and Rain God's will had nearly dispersed. Very little remained, so they needed to provide vital essence to activate it.

"Screech!"

The tattered decree erupted, showering down countless golden raindrops. Like mountains weighing ten thousand jun, they carried terrifying power of heaven and earth as they struck toward Xiao Meng.

At the same time, Little Dot and the others were targeted as well. Without a second thought, the two turned and ran. This was not something they could possibly withstand at their current level.

"Big brother, be careful!" Little Dot shouted.

Xiao Meng twitched his lips and cursed inwardly, You little brat. I'll deal with you later.

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger.

"Boom!"

After a deafening blast, a fireball wrapped in blazing flames shot forth. It grew larger and larger as it flew, until it was as huge as a planet, then smashed violently into the glowing decree.

Little Dot, Xiao Tian, and Big Red Bird all instinctively turned to look, their pupils suddenly contracting.

"The will of a god is not something an ant like you can resist. Just wait for death and pay for your arrogance—" a middle-aged Rain Clan member sneered.

But in the next instant, their expressions froze, and they all turned to stone.

After an explosive boom, the so-called divine decree was blasted directly into ash.

Little Dot and Xiao Tian stopped in their tracks, staring dumbfoundedly at the scene. They simply could not believe it. A god's decree had been so fragile that it was crudely and savagely blown apart?

"Am I seeing things?" Little Dot rubbed his eyes, his face filled with shock as though he had seen a ghost.

"Oh my god, he actually blew up a god's decree?!" Xiao Tian's body trembled. He could not believe his eyes. This outcome was far too unexpected.

"No..."

The Rain Clan members' vision darkened, and they nearly fainted. Their eyes split with rage as they roared. The divine decree had been blown apart, and they were so furious they nearly coughed up blood.

But they were even more terrified. If even the divine decree was useless, did that not mean they had only death awaiting them?

Xiao Meng put away his gun, blew on the black smoke rising from its muzzle, and curled his lip. "What lousy divine decree? It couldn't take a single hit."

Little Dot and Xiao Tian were stunned, feeling as though the world had spun upside down.

"Big brother, you're way too fierce." Big Red Bird had somehow crept closer. It stretched out a claw toward the AK-47 in Xiao Meng's hand, extremely excited.

"Bang!"

Xiao Meng flew into a rage. This damn bird was really something else. He stomped it to the ground and aimed the black muzzle at its head.

"Big brother, spare me! We're on the same side!" Seeing the terrifying weapon that had blown up the divine decree pointed at its head, Big Red Bird was nearly scared out of its wits. It screamed and struggled desperately.

It was scared senseless.

"If you call me big brother one more time, I'll blow your head off."

Xiao Meng gritted his teeth. "From now on, call me Master."

"Can we use another title? I'm an ancient descendant, an extremely powerful being with thousands upon thousands of followers," Big Red Bird said darkly, trying to bargain.

"How about we see whether your head is harder than a divine decree?" Xiao Meng said expressionlessly.

"Master, my great Master, what are your orders? Your loyal servant is at your service," Big Red Bird immediately gave in. What a joke. Even if its head were made of iron, it could not compare with a divine decree.

"Hmph! Go wait somewhere else." Xiao Meng was too exhausted to mock it. This thieving bird had no principles at all.

"Bro... Brother Meng, those old turtles from the Rain Clan are running away!" Little Dot shouted. He had almost called him big brother, but after seeing Big Red Bird's miserable fate, he swallowed the words and quickly changed how he addressed him.

Xiao Meng smiled. "It's fine. Let them run a little longer."

Little Dot: "..."

Xiao Tian: "..."

"Master, they're about to disappear," Big Red Bird reminded him.

Xiao Meng looked up, spat out the cigar butt in his mouth, then suddenly raised his gun, chambered a round, disengaged the safety, aimed, and fired. Every movement flowed in one smooth motion.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Xiao Meng fired repeatedly. Fireballs shot out one after another, crossing ten thousand miles in an instant.

The fleeing Rain Clan members were blown apart one after another.

"Hiss!"

This scene horrified Little Dot and the others, sending tremors through their hearts.

What kind of treasure was this? How could its power be so terrifying?

"Brother Meng, what kind of treasure is this?" Little Dot walked over with shining eyes, crystalline drool hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Meng twitched his lips and gave him a knuckle rap. "You little brat, are you trying to steal my treasure?"

As he spoke, Xiao Meng raised the AK-47 and pointed the muzzle at Little Dot's head, clearly ready to fire if the little brat dared say yes.

The little brat shuddered, his hair standing on end. He hurriedly waved it off, refusing to admit that he had ever entertained such a thought, even if beaten to death.

"You want to touch it?" Xiao Meng curled his lip.

"Yes!"

The little brat nodded like a pecking chicken. It was a treasure that could blow apart a divine decree; naturally, he wanted to see it.

"Here, have a look." Xiao Meng handed him the gun. He was not afraid that the little brat would snatch it and run, because no one besides him could use the thing properly.

Little Dot froze slightly. He had not expected Xiao Meng to so readily let him inspect such a terrifying treasure, without the slightest guard against him.

"Brother Meng, what is this treasure called?" Little Dot examined it carefully, but could not make heads or tails of it.

"Its formal name is AK-47. Its nickname is machine gun." Xiao Meng lit another cigar and exhaled a puff of smoke.

"What a strange name. I've never heard of a treasure like this," Little Dot muttered.

"Of course you haven't. This is something from Earth," Xiao Meng said.

"What kind of place is Earth?" The little brat's big eyes rolled around as he put on an eager, humble expression.

Xiao Meng said, "You wouldn't understand even if I told you. When you meet someone named Ye Fan someday, ask him."

"Ye Fan? Who is that?"

Little Dot said, "Brother Meng, the things you say are a little strange. I don't really understand them."

"You'll understand someday," Xiao Meng said mysteriously.

"Noble Master, could you let me take a look at this earth-shattering weapon of yours?" Big Red Bird sidled over, wearing a devout expression.

"Thieving bird, get lost." The moment Xiao Meng thought of Big Red Bird's earlier behavior, his anger flared up again, and he kicked it flying once more.

"Why am I being treated differently? I refuse to accept this!" Big Red Bird complained indignantly.

At this moment, Xiao Tian also walked over and cupped his fists toward Xiao Meng, though his gaze never left the machine gun in Little Dot's hands.

"I am Xiao Tian. May I ask how I should address you, brother?" Xiao Tian said with cupped fists.

Xiao Meng smiled. "Come to think of it, we share the same surname."

"Brother, you are also surnamed Xiao? May I ask where you come from? Perhaps we share a deep connection," Xiao Tian said joyfully. He had witnessed Xiao Meng's strength firsthand. He was simply an unmatched prodigy, with few among his generation capable of rivaling him.

If he could bring this man into the clan, it would definitely be a great thing for the Xiao Clan.

Little Dot's heart sank, and he had a bad feeling. If this big brother had ties to Xiao Tian, then after swindling Xiao Tian so badly, would he not be in serious trouble?

At that thought, he wanted to turn and sprint away immediately.

Xiao Meng shook his head. "My name is Xiao Meng. I'm not from this world. I only crossed worlds this time to have some fun."

Xiao Tian was greatly shocked by these words. Just what was this man's background? He could actually cross between worlds? He had heard related secrets before; crossing worlds was incredibly difficult.

Little Dot, however, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Meng, what is that thing you're smoking?" Little Dot sniffed the air and discovered that the smoke Xiao Meng exhaled actually had the effect of strengthening the soul.

The little brat's large eyes darted about as he could not help swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva.

"You want to smoke?" Xiao Meng asked with a smile.

"Yes!"

Little Dot nodded, making no effort to hide what he wanted.

Xiao Meng smiled, then took out three cigars. Little Dot, Xiao Tian, and even Big Red Bird, who had just rushed back, each got one.

"Come, I'll light your cigars." Xiao Meng took out a lighter and lit Little Dot's first, then Xiao Tian's and Big Red Bird's.

"Cough, cough, cough..."
