Chapter 456: Is That Person Brother Lu?

~7 min read 1,316 words

As Lu Yu gradually moved away, the unique aura of the Commander-level Fierce Beast also gradually dissipated.

The surrounding Fierce Beasts, attracted by the smell of blood, immediately swarmed into the city and began to feast upon the corpses of the Fierce Beasts on the ground.

On his return journey, Lu Yu found things much smoother than he had imagined.

The surrounding Fierce Beasts, upon smelling the aura of the Raging Wild Bull King from afar, were so frightened that they fled in all directions; even Elite-level Fierce Beasts were no exception.

Therefore, in less than twenty minutes, Yongan City appeared before his eyes.

"Almost there."

Lu Yu stretched his wrists, which were already aching terribly; the size of this Commander-level Fierce Beast was simply too massive, and bringing it back was truly no easy task.

But to just abandon it there would be a real waste.

Little did he know, the people still remaining outside Yongan City at this moment, as well as the guards on the city walls, were all terrified pale as paper upon seeing a giant black shadow slowly approaching, their legs trembling uncontrollably, even their calves shaking.

What on earth is that thing? Is it a Fierce Beast? But how could there be such a massive Fierce Beast?

Some among them had experienced one or two Beast Tides and had seen quite a few Elite-level Fierce Beasts.

That black shadow in the distance was at least ten stories high, almost level with the city wall; how could this possibly be an Elite-level Fierce Beast?

"Quick, quick, notify the Awakened!"

On the city wall, a guard shouted in a panic.

"Could it be that a Beast Tide has broken out?"

"No, that's impossible, right?"

"Look ahead! That seems to be, a person!"

The people beside him heard this and looked in the direction he was pointing; in an instant, everyone was so shocked that their eyeballs seemed ready to pop out of their sockets.

What exactly did they see? They saw a person wearing a mask, right hand tightly gripping more than a dozen ropes, walking steadily toward this place.

Every step he took, the massive figure behind him would move forward by one step; at first glance, it gave one the illusion that a Fierce Beast was attacking the city.

That was not the case at all! It was actually someone dragging this giant beast and moving forward slowly!

The minds of the crowd went blank, their mouths hanging wide open, yet they could not utter a single word.

For a time, everything went quiet, leaving only the harsh, grating sound of the Wild Bull King's body being dragged across the ground.

However, some people on the road outside the city vaguely felt that this masked person was inexplicably familiar.

"That, what is that!"

On the city wall, the group of Awakened who had rushed over upon hearing the news were instantly stunned upon seeing this scene.

"Is it, a Commander-level Fierce Beast? He brought back a Commander-level Fierce Beast!"

"What! A Commander-level Fierce Beast!"

"That's right." Someone nearby swallowed hard, their voice trembling as they said: "Although it has no head and its four legs are gone, judging by the size, it is definitely a Commander-level Fierce Beast! It is very likely the Raging Wild Bull King!"

"The Raging Wild Bull King!"

Many Awakened gasped in unison, their gazes focused squarely on the masked figure.

Being able to drag the dozens-to-hundreds-of-tons body of the Raging Wild Bull King, this person's strength was absolutely not to be underestimated.

What concerned them most was, how did this masked guy manage to get the corpse of this Commander-level Fierce Beast?

Could it be that he killed this Commander-level Fierce Beast with his own hands?

When did such a formidable figure appear in Yongan City?

Or was this person just passing through Yongan City and, seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, came here to find a place to stay?

"President!"

"President!"

"Lord Hai!"

On the city wall, a chorus of respectful shouts suddenly rang out.

Hai Qiong nodded slightly in acknowledgment, walked quickly to the position where he had been standing that morning, and looked toward the distance, his eyes instantly revealing a look of deep horror.

Behind him stood the newly joined Meng Rang and the others; without exception, their faces were filled with shock.

"Brother Hai, it is, it is the corpse of a Commander-level Fierce Beast."

Meng Rang swallowed hard, his voice trembling violently.

"It should be the Raging Wild Bull King; among Commander-level Fierce Beasts, it is considered the most common type."

"Even if it is the most common, it is still a Commander-level Fierce Beast! In terms of strength, a single Commander-level Fierce Beast is enough to completely destroy our Yongan City."

"Indeed."

The bearded man and the others were all panicked and at a loss.

They had finally managed to bring their families to Yongan City, thinking they would have a bright future here, but who could have imagined that such a super expert would suddenly appear.

Since this person could bring a Commander-level Fierce Beast here, it was highly likely that the Commander-level Fierce Beast behind him was killed by his own hands! For a powerhouse of this level, wanting to occupy Yongan City would probably be a matter of a single word.

Hai Qiong's expression was extremely grave as he said in a low voice: "Everyone, do not act rashly for now. Perhaps that person is just passing through and wants to find a nearby place to spend the night. However, if he comes to our Association later, we must keep a low profile and must not offend him."

"Understood." Meng Rang and the others nodded in agreement.

They were not fools; they could still grasp this much sense of propriety.

"Brother Hai, I think we should inform the President about this as soon as possible," Meng Rang whispered a reminder.

"Mm."

Hai Qiong nodded in agreement; the severity of the situation before them far exceeded everyone's expectations, and it was no longer something he, as a Vice President, could handle alone; he had to notify the President as soon as possible.

Of course, even if he notified the President, he actually did not have much confidence in his heart.

In his view, although the President was very strong and killing top-tier Elite-level Fierce Beasts was like child's play, even the most formidable Elite-level Fierce Beast was like a child facing an adult in front of a Commander-level Fierce Beast, with no power to resist.

Even the President, compared to that masked guy in the distance, was probably not in the same league, right?

However, what they did not see was that at another part of the city wall, another group of people who had rushed over upon hearing the news had expressions that were incredibly colorful.

They were none other than Song Tian, Chang Lei, and the others from the Martial Arts Branch.

Upon learning that a massive Fierce Beast was approaching Yongan City, they rushed over at the first opportunity, and soon after, they saw that incomparably familiar figure.

"President?" Kang Yuan opened his mouth wide, looking at Song Tian at the very front in disbelief, "Am I seeing things? Or am I hallucinating? That person is, is it Brother Lu?"

"I, I think, it is, right?" Song Tian said, equally uncertain.

Intuition told him that the person wearing the mask was Lu Yu; if he had an extra bow in his hand, then it would be even more certain.

However, what was going on with that giant beast behind him?

Such a massive size could absolutely not be reached by an Elite-level Fierce Beast; at the very least, it was a Commander-level!

Could it be that Brother Lu had actually killed a Commander-level Fierce Beast?

This, is it really possible?
