Ding, ding, ding.

The sound of bullets hitting the table and bouncing off continued, but it was clearly much quieter than before.

"Have you ever doubted that there's something wrong with the other party's appearance and existence?" his girlfriend asked.

"Are you suggesting that the other party is someone from Wuzhentian's group?" Du Xinzhen glanced at his girlfriend and said, "If someone usually asked me to doubt you, I would definitely believe it without hesitation. The same logic applies; if you ask me to doubt the other party, my answer would be the same."

"Forget I said anything!" his girlfriend waved her hand.

At the same time, Zheng Xiaotian was throwing air bullets from the shadows at the gunmen.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

One by one, the air bullets were thrown from Zheng Xiaotian's palm.

Bang, bang, bang!

One by one, the air bullets hit their targets.

Zheng Xiaotian thought to himself, bullets need to be loaded and prepared in advance. Air bullets can be condensed with true qi. Even transforming them into tracking bullets is not a problem.

The gunmen didn't know what was attacking their companions, but they knew one thing: there was a joker in the shadows who kept ambushing them. They had a rough idea of his position.

Bang, bang, bang!

Bullets shot at the edges of the walls where Zheng Xiaotian was hiding. Now, even the simplest act of showing his head was impossible.

"This is getting tough!" Zheng Xiaotian scratched his head. Without armor, it was really inconvenient. If he had armor, would he still fear bullets? With armor, he could just charge out. Bullets would be no threat at all.

Bang, bang, bang!

Zheng Xiaotian could feel the impact of the bullets getting stronger. He didn't believe for a second that the other party had taken apart and cleaned their guns. The only possibility was that they were getting closer to him, trying to aim directly at his head.

"Damn, damn, damn, they're getting closer and closer." Zheng Xiaotian frantically scratched his head.

Zheng Xiaotian calmed himself down and thought about the principle of tracking air bullets.

He had studied this topic before. By using mental energy to spread around and pinpoint a location, he could then control the air bullets and attack the target.

However, this was always just a concept in Zheng Xiaotian's mind, never put into practice. So, he didn't know if it would work. If given time, he might be able to figure it out. But using it in such a critical moment...

Zheng Xiaotian closed his eyes. After all, the air bullets were his only chance.

Three minutes, five minutes.

These Americans were very cautious. They moved step by step, always finding cover. Describing them as "taking every step carefully" was spot on.

Zheng Xiaotian's eyes suddenly opened. He smiled. As the saying goes, when you're under pressure, all kinds of potential can be unleashed. It seemed this was indeed the case. People need to be pushed, and they need to have a bit of a stubborn streak.

Zheng Xiaotian raised his hands. Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, one by one, the air bullets shot out. They were supposed to go straight ahead, but with Zheng Xiaotian's control, they suddenly turned and shot toward the other side of the wall.

In Zheng Xiaotian's mind, a 3D map appeared. This was his mental energy spreading out. Under such pressure, he was even forced to use his mental energy.

On the map, there were human-shaped shadows and transparent spheres shooting toward these shadows. The sounds of bang, bang, bang never stopped. They hit their targets.

One by one, the shadows were hit in the head and fell unconscious. Finally, one shadow was hit in the limbs and crashed to the ground, clearly unable to get up for a while.

Zheng Xiaotian opened his eyes, relaxed his steps, and walked out slowly. It was done. Now, even without armor, what could he do? With his mental energy, he could protect himself just fine without armor.

Zheng Xiaotian thought, should he just give up on the armor? To get the armor, he would have to oppose Qintianzhu. Once he opposed Qintianzhu, there would be no turning back. Once the war here was over, it would probably be time for the system to send him back. Of course, this was just his speculation.

In the restaurant, behind the table.

Du Xinzhen had already noticed that the bullets had stopped attacking him, and the gunshots had completely disappeared. It seemed the gunmen had been taken care of.

"It seems it's done." Du Xinzhen poked his head out. From his corner, he could see that the gunmen were all lying on the ground, completely motionless.

"Is he really not from Wuzhentian's group?" Honestly, Du Xinzhen's girlfriend still had doubts about Zheng Xiaotian. She didn't understand why her man trusted him so much. She didn't believe it at all. Now, the situation clearly showed that one of them was left alive. If the other party really had something to do with it, wouldn't that be even worse? If the other party had killed them, wouldn't that be a sign of guilt? So, it seemed the assassins and the other party were not on the same side.

"I unconditionally believe he has nothing to do with Wuzhentian," Du Xinzhen said.

In their line of sight, Zheng Xiaotian had already come out of the shadows and was slowly approaching the gunmen.

At this moment, a horse suddenly appeared at one end of the street. To be precise, it was a knight. The figure moved quickly, more accurately, the horse's legs moved very quickly.

Bang!

The knight hit Zheng Xiaotian on the back of the head with a club, knocking him unconscious. Then, he quickly grabbed Zheng Xiaotian onto the horse, handcuffed him, and rode away.

"Is this the royal cavalry? They still claim to have nothing to do with the royal family?" Du Xinzhen was truly angry. It was clear that the security bureau was against him, and Zheng Xiaotian had helped him and was now captured.
