Xiao Ning snorted coldly, reached out and grabbed the lead bullet that was flying towards him. As if it had eyes, it obediently jumped into his hand and remained motionless.
"Tingting, the person who fired the shot, wasn't that the same guy who wet his pants in the street last time? What do you think I should do with him?"
Xiao Ning caught the bullet, but did not immediately fire. He paused his cloud-riding and turned to ask Ren Tingting beside him.
Ren Tingting hesitated for a moment, remembering the embarrassing sight of her distant cousin on the street last time, and thinking about his petty thoughts, she ultimately did not plead for him.
"Brother Xiao, you handle this as you see fit. I won't interfere with your decision!"
Thinking of the man beside her with his almost supernatural methods, Ren Tingting did not plead for him. She felt that it was not worth making Xiao Ning dislike her for the sake of a distant cousin.
Although the possibility was very low, she didn't want to take the risk.
After listening to Ren Tingting's words, Xiao Ning nodded, stretched out a finger, and gently pointed downwards.
As a bolt of lightning flashed, the surrounding energy surged violently, growing longer in the wind until it was the size of a basketball.
"go!"
Xiao Ning gave a soft shout and flicked his finger, and the basketball-sized ball of lightning immediately fell down, heading straight for Awei on the ground.
……………
After firing the shot, Awei, who had been blinded by jealousy, instantly calmed down.
"Damn it, was I too impulsive?"
"This is a deity who can ride the clouds!"
At that moment, Awei panicked and regretted it.
In particular, when he saw everyone prostrating themselves on the ground in deep worship, Awei felt extremely uneasy.
"Damn it, there are no gods or immortals in the world. It's all a lie, a complete illusion!"
"Dare to interfere with my marriage to my cousin and the inheritance of the Ren family business? I don't care if you're some god or demon, you'll all die!"
Then, whether it was from being possessed by a demon or burning with jealousy, with his eyes darting around rapidly, Awei hardened his heart and decided to go all the way. He shouted, "Bastard, die!"
He continued to raise his pistol, as if to pull the trigger.
Just then, Awei felt a sudden burst of bright light appear before his eyes, and then he knew nothing more.
From a distance, it appeared as if the entire sky had changed. The sky, which had been bright and sunny just moments before, was suddenly filled with thunderclouds, and giant dragons of lightning danced across the sky.
A massive pillar of lightning, as thick as a water bucket, descended from the sky.
It hit Awei directly as he looked up and raised his gun.
Hearing a deafening roar of thunder, everyone was startled and looked up.
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a bright light suddenly appeared. Everyone involuntarily closed their eyes to avoid being blinded by the glare.
A few breaths later, the bright light disappeared, and everyone looked around to find that the place where Awei had stood was empty. All that could be seen was a piece of charred, charcoal-like material left behind, clearly dead.
A foul, acrid smell filled the air. As a mountain breeze blew, the charred, charcoal-like substance turned to ashes and vanished instantly.
"Hiss! Awei fired at the gods, angering them, and lightning struck him down from the heavens!"
"The might of Heaven is truly terrifying!"
"Offending the gods never ends well; Awei is a perfect example!"
"Awei dares to offend the gods; he deserves to die!"
Seeing this, the people on the ground were terrified and lived in constant fear.
"Hiss, this is the highest level of lightning magic in my Taoist school!"
Hearing the noise, Lin Fengjiao quietly looked up and noticed something amiss. Unlike ordinary people, she didn't think it was divine lightning!
Under the gazes of everyone, some filled with panic, some with reverence, and some with awe, the thunderclouds dissipated, the sky returned to its clear blue, and the white cloud that had been floating in the air finally settled down.
Then, a perfect couple descended from the clouds. The man was handsome and dashing, with a commanding presence and dignified appearance. His eyes shone like cold stars, and his eyebrows were as dark as if painted with lacquer.
The woman... is actually... the eldest daughter of the Ren family... Ren Tingting?
At this moment, countless people's hearts were ablaze with the fire of gossip.
Xiao Ning and Ren Tingting walked hand in hand down from the white clouds and headed towards Ren Fa.
"Uncle, I'm not late, am I?"
Ren Fa stared wide-eyed, as if he didn't recognize him, his eyes filled with disbelief. He stammered, "My... Immortal, just call me Ren Fa. I dare not accept the title of Uncle!"
He seemed to completely ignore Xiao Ning's daughter, Ren Tingting, bowing and scraping obsequiously.
At this moment, all his shrewdness and calculations were thrown to the winds by Ren Fa!
In front of such a peerless master who could fly and escape into the sky, Ren Fa dared not have the slightest thought and appeared extremely respectful.
Ren Tingting stepped forward and took his arm, pleading sweetly, "Dad, what are you doing? Even if Brother Xiao becomes a god, he's still the same Brother Xiao, without the slightest change!"
After she finished speaking, she turned to Xiao Ning and asked, "Brother Xiao, don't you think so?"
Xiao Ning nodded and said, "Tingting is right. Tingting and I are in love and we are just about to find an auspicious day to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage to Uncle Shi. We earnestly request that Uncle Shi marry Tingting to me!"
"Ah...okay! Okay! Okay! You want to marry Tingting, right? I agree!"
