Seeing the meteor falling from the sky, Xiao Zhan's face instantly turned pale. Without a second thought, he rushed out of the mansion and shouted, "Danger! Everyone, be on alert!"
All members of the Xiao family also saw the meteor descending from the night sky.
However, whether it was the speed of sound or the chaotic attempts to hide, everyone was a step too slow.
The descent of the meteor emitted a mournful roar in the air.
The burning flames carried a terrifying force that seemed capable of tearing everything apart as it fell from the sky.
For a moment, countless members of the Xiao family saw fleeting images flash before their eyes, as if death was imminent.
But the target of this meteor was not them.
The burning meteor from outer space landed on the mountain behind the Xiao family's estate.
The entire Wutan City trembled three times in succession due to the impact of the meteor.
Even the two families at the Galle residence, who were discussing how to deal with Xiao Chong, were momentarily panicked.
Already guilty of plotting against the Xiao family, the sudden commotion nearly scared them out of their wits.
Following the meteor's impact, everyone in the surrounding area of the city was awakened that night.
The Xiao family naturally noticed the meteor had landed on their back mountain and immediately began searching the area.
They quickly discovered the traces of the meteor's impact and the massive crater it left in the mountain.
After investigating the scene, the Xiao family members breathed a sigh of relief but couldn't help feeling a lingering fear.
Fortunately, the meteor hadn't been aimed directly at the Xiao family. Otherwise, with such a force, it was likely that no one in the Xiao family would have survived.
The residual heat from the meteor alone was enough to make the legs of those present, who were mostly at the Dou Shi level, tremble.
And the powerhouse capable of effortlessly causing such destruction would certainly not have missed their target.
After searching the back mountain for a long time, the Xiao family finally concluded that there were no suspicious individuals and relaxed.
Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said, "It seems it was just a passing powerhouse testing their skills here. No need to worry, everyone."
"Xue'er, what level of strength do you think someone who can unleash such an attack must have?"
After all, the strongest in the Xiao family now was the clan leader's wife.
This was largely thanks to Xiao Chong's cultivation while still in Gu Xue's womb.
Now, seeing the clan leader's wife having reached the Dou Ling level, the other wives of the Xiao family were envious, wondering why such a genius hadn't been born from their own wombs.
Not to mention the joy of giving birth to a genius, their own strength would have skyrocketed as well.
After surveying the scene, Xiao's mother nodded and said, "Brother Zhan, based on my estimation, the fact that this meteor still retains such formidable power after landing here…"
"If someone can unleash this combat skill, they must at least possess the strength of a Dou Huang."
"Dou Huang?"
The Second Elder of the Xiao family, standing nearby, couldn't help but shiver upon hearing this. "Are you saying that a powerhouse with the strength of a Dou Huang just happened to pass by us?"
Mother Xiao: "I'm afraid not... because right now, within Wutan City, isn't there exactly one Dou Huang-level powerhouse?"
Hearing Mother Xiao's words, Xiao Zhan and the other elders of the Xiao family immediately recalled the child who, upon birth, had instantly triggered a series of celestial phenomena in the surroundings... that freak who was born with the strength of a Dou Huang!
Realizing this, the elders on the scene collectively took a sharp breath in disbelief, then said.
"But this... this can't be right."
"The method of a stone falling from the sky should be a combat skill."
"But that child has only been born for a few days. How could he have had the time to learn a combat skill?"
Mother Xiao, however, was quite expectant: "Perhaps my son is self-taught!"
"My son is so clever and quick-witted, he could even practice martial arts in the womb."
"Maybe this meteor combat skill was summoned by my son?"
The other elders couldn't help but curl their lips upon hearing Mother Xiao's words.
Truly a doting mother, never missing an opportunity to praise her son.
But her words were indeed hard to refute, given that she had given birth to such a genius son.
The latest novel is first published on @8shu!
Xiao Zhan also stepped forward and said.
"Since we're not sure, why don't we go and check on my son now."
"If he really did unleash such a combat skill, it would be a great fortune for our Xiao family, hahaha!"
As he spoke, Xiao Zhan cheerfully ran towards Xiao Chong's room.
Perhaps just a few minutes ago, he was trembling with fear, hoping that the meteor wouldn't crash before their eyes.
But now, knowing that the meteor was likely summoned by his own son, he was even less worried!...
Meanwhile, in Xiao Chong's room.
Feeling the commotion from the back mountain, Xiao Chong muttered to himself.
"Did I just use about one-tenth of my strength, and the resulting power is this strong?"
"Truly a self-created combat skill, its power feels almost comparable to a Heaven-tier combat skill."
The more he thought about it, the more delighted Xiao Chong became.
He never expected that a combat skill he created while admiring the scenery would have such a remarkable effect.
"And the power is quite impressive. Although there's a very brief window to dodge from the moment the meteor falls until it hits the target, it's not a significant issue."
"But this is indeed a very suitable skill for sieging and capturing cities."
This combat skill clearly isn't meant for single-target use; it's perfect for launching directly onto an enemy's stronghold.
Once my level increases, no defensive formation will be able to withstand this move.
Or, to put it more bluntly, if I ever learn a hard crowd-control skill in the future, I could immobilize the enemy on the spot and then follow up with a Heavenly Starfall.
The effect would definitely be amazing!
However, just as Xiao Chong was savoring the power of the move he had just executed, his so-called fathers rushed in urgently.
Without hesitation, Xiao Chong yawned and decided to sleep!
