"Lei Xing!!! What do you think you're doing here?" suppressing the anger inside of her, Hong Lian asked the arrogant looking man, clear from her tone just how much she despise the guy.
"How cold of you Hong Lian, you should act better than you do now once were married, that's what a good woman do after all" the man named Lei Xing said before looking around, scanning the others with a scrutinizing gaze before his eyes glowed as he looks at Li Yan, her beauty still on the same level as her real appearance despite being shrouded in an illusion currently.
Approaching the lady, Lei Xing disappeared from his original position and arrives in front of Li Yan, speaking proudly as if he's some kind of figure with name resounding across the entire continent as he introduced himself.
"Greetings my fair lady, the name is Lei Xing, from the Purple Lightning Temple, can I have the honor of knowing this beautiful lady's name?" as he asked, his hand already reaches out attempting to touch Li Yan's hand, but before he could even do so, a large masculine hand prevents him from doing so, locking his hand in its position despite him using his full strength to try moving it away, the only thing he could do is look at the tall figure with its shadow looming over him, his 'scholarly' physique completely paling in comparison to the chiseled, masculine body of the figure.
"I suggest you stop your pathetic attempt to touch someone else's lover, unless you want to regret it for your entire life" seeing the arrogant look on Lei Xing's face as he stares at Li Yan with lust filled gaze, Wu Xiaotian moves, the hand holding on the man's wrist locked so tightly that the man is starting to get hurt, humiliation clear on his face as he never expects someone who can singlehandedly suppress him, even if he had yet to use his full power exist here.
His ego, unable to take this 'offense', starts collapsing as he lashed out towards the immortal-like young man, is other hand clenching into a fist as he fills it with his lightning qi, driving it at an inhuman speed towards the young man without hesitation, the blinding flash of the lightning temporarily blinding the people in the surrounding as it explodes the moment it comes into contact with the young man's body.
After the light recedes, smoke was completely hiding Wu Xiaotian's unmoving figure, causing the people from the Purple Lightning Temple to laugh as if to mock the now 'dead' young man.
"HAHAHAHA that's what you get from trying to stop senior brother Lei"
"What a dumb boy, he thought that he could just do anything to Lei Xing huh…"
"AHAHAHA oh my, 'I suggest you stop your pathetic attempt to touch someone else's lover' turns out he's the pathetic one!!!"
Mockery from the people, as well as praises towards him healed Lei Xing's wounded pride, speaking loudly as if to provoke everyone, he said as he tries to pull out his hand.
"This is what you get for offending me, you should know your enemy before acting arrogantly in your next life" he said arrogantly as he stares at Li Yan, his intent now completely revealed as he believes that there's nothing that can stop him from taking this lady now.
"Now that the nuisance is out of the way, how about we introduce ourselves properly, and get to know each other… oh, I will also invite you to follow me instead of them, it is better to go with the stronger one after all isn't it?" Lei Xing said as he tries to get closer to the lady, his tone clearly confident of her joining him.
"I will refuse your offer, sir… whatever your name is" she said, making the arrogant young man angry, trying to speak but interrupted by her, "Besides, if we're talking about the strongest here, there's clearly one person for me to go with"
"You mean them?" Lei Xing points out towards Hua Xian'er and Hong Lian before laughing, "They're hardly my match even if they're together, what can you even get from going with them?" he asked as he moves closer to the lady, trying to grab her hand forcefully, thinking that if she wouldn't go with her own free will, there's still nothing she could do if he used his power to suppress and force her to come with him.
However, terror starts to run through his entire being when a gaze, feeling like an absolute being overlooking the heavens locks on him, this feeling snapping him out of his pompous act as it is only now that he realizes that the hand that young man was previously holding was still, stuck in place, the smoke now dissipating, a cold voice coming out of it as a seemingly glowing eyes stares at him causing him to flinch.
"Are you done with your act?" as the smoke completely dissipates, a completely fine, clean figure of Wu Xiaotian appears, not even a scratch of damage visible from anywhere, whether his body or clothes.
"Y-You…. H-ho─" before he could even ask, he was raised up by the young man, making it so that his figure is disconnected to the ground, hanging as the immortal-like young man holds his wrist, his body unmoving as immense soul power locks him in place.
"I told you, you will regret it" Wu Xiaotian said with cold eyes as his other hand forms a fist, its movement becomes unrecognizable as no one even noticed it moving, but a trace of it already appears as the 'scholarly' man's chest caves in, causing the man to spew rivers of blood out of his mouth.
"Get lost…" he said as he crushed the man's hand, forcing a pathetic scream out of him before hurling him out throwing him so far away that everyone in the area couldn't even see where he would land.
"How dare you!!!"
"Bastard!!! You will regret doing that"
"Fuck!!! Brothers, attack him!!!"
Seeing the disciples of the Purple Lightning Temple berating him and even trying to use their numbers to attack, Wu Xiaotian just shakes his head as he looks towards the flock, mockery clear from his voice as he said, "Flies just won't stop being annoying don't they?"
With his soul power spreading explosively, a radius of fifty meters was completely surrounded, a terrifying pressure bears down on all of the approaching people, suppressing them to the ground, planting them face first on it.
"Husband, try not to kill them okay? That will be problematic for you after all" seeing him looking pretty angry with the incident, Li Yan hugs him from the back as she whispers, reminding him with a concern filled voice.
Hearing her expressing her worries, he turns around and looks at her, smiling as he cups her cheeks with both his hands and made her look at him as he replied, "Don't worry, I might be angry, but I know what I'm doing"
Having said so, all the disciples of the Purple Lightning Temple floats from the ground, along with the sound of his snap, getting thrown to every direction, the show displaying the terrifying extent of his power, the people from other forces looking at him as if they saw a monster.
"Now there won't be anyone bothering us" he looks at his group with a smile as he goes back to his wok, cooking happily, his figure and demeanor completely different from the god-like visage of him destroying an entire force singlehandedly.
