Chapter 480: Chapter 49: About to Enter the Main Cosmos

"Who are you?"

The brothers Alan and Jie Ao watched Lin Yu emerge from the wind, their expressions grave.

"You bully my subordinates and still ask who I am?"

"Die!"

Lin Yu wasted no more words on them. He shot forward again, a gale-force wind rushing toward the pair.

The brothers, Alan and Jie Ao, hastily channeled the energy in their bodies to their eyes, which allowed them to barely make out Lin Yu’s movements.

Then, relying on their years of combat experience, they brandished their daggers and preemptively stabbed at the spots where they predicted Lin Yu would appear.

Seeing their move, Lin Yu laughed to himself. ’They think they can stop me with two little daggers?’

His form flickered as he tried to dodge, but even though the brothers couldn’t see him clearly, they moved on instinct, and their daggers once again aimed at his next position.

’Not bad at all!’

Lin Yu praised them inwardly. Of all the Beastman heroes he had fought recently, these two were the first to keep up with his movements.

After that, he stopped changing direction and simply charged straight toward Alan and Jie Ao.

He then poured more Spiritual Energy into his sword and met their daggers head-on.

CLANG! CLANG!

With those two sounds, Lin Yu’s sword, which was already riddled with cracks, shattered into pieces despite the infusion of extra energy.

Lin Yu regretfully held up the hilt. The sword had slain countless Beastmen by his side, and now, its life had finally come to an end.

’Sigh... And just like that, you’re gone...’

Lin Yu mourned for a moment, hilt in hand, all while dodging the relentless attacks from Alan and Jie Ao.

Two minutes later, Alan and Jie Ao were gasping for breath, exhausted by their own high-intensity, high-speed assault.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu finished his moment of remembrance and pulled another sword from his dimensional storage.

He swung it at Alan and Jie Ao. The brothers tried to evade, but they quickly discovered it was impossible to dodge Lin Yu’s attacks and were forced to raise their daggers to parry.

CLANG! CLANG!

Two more sharp cracks echoed out. This time, it was the brothers’ daggers that shattered.

Now weaponless, the brothers knew that continuing the fight was a death sentence. They exchanged a look, activated their stealth abilities, and vanished before Lin Yu’s eyes.

"Hm?"

Lin Yu immediately extended his senses but couldn’t detect their auras. He launched an attack at the spot where they had been standing, but it hit nothing but air.

"Chenxi, protect the others!"

Under these circumstances, Lin Yu decided to stop holding back. He ordered Chenxi to shield his injured heroes, then unleashed his full power and began to run at a frenzied pace.

Sonic booms thundered across the sky as a violent gale swept through the entire area.

The wind scoured every inch of the area, and soon, blood spattered through the air.

"Heh, found you!"

Lin Yu charged toward the source of the blood. After a few strikes, the mangled bodies of Alan and Jie Ao materialized, falling to the ground in pieces.

With the enemy dead, Lin Yu stopped his charge. Chenxi canceled her fusion state, sending the Vicious Poisonous Vines away.

"Chenxi, take them back to the main force for healing. I’ll handle this wave of enemies!"

"Yes, my Lord. Please be careful!"

Knowing she couldn’t be of much help in her current state, Chenxi obediently led her subordinate heroes back to the main force.

Then, with a sonic boom, Lin Yu shot toward the distant Beastman army.

「...」

By the time he reached the Beastman army, Lin Yu found they had already split into five groups, each retreating in a different direction.

He immediately called down to his aerial scouts.

"Weren’t you keeping an eye on them? Do you know which group their lord is in?" he asked impatiently as soon as a scout landed.

"My Lord, the composition of each Beastman group is identical. At the center of each is a lavishly dressed Lion-man. We were unable to distinguish the real one."

Lin Yu waved his hand in disappointment, dismissing the scout to continue their reconnaissance.

"Wait. Tell Chenxi to pursue the rightmost Beastman group. We’ll split up."

Since there was no way of knowing which group the Beastman Lord was in, they would have to do this the hard way.

Eliminate them one by one.

With that thought, Lin Yu no longer hesitated and charged toward the leftmost group of Beastmen.

With a whoosh of wind, he caught up to the group in no time. After weaving a simple path of slaughter through their ranks, the entire unit lay dead at his hands.

Then, guided by the aerial scouts, he charged toward the second group, and then the third...

After wiping out the fourth Beastman unit, Lin Yu wiped the sweat from his brow.

Even without using his full strength, the continuous sprinting and slaughtering was beginning to tire him out.

’Heh. Is this Beastman Lord really that lucky?’

’Could he actually be in the fifth group?’

At this thought, Lin Yu picked up his pace and headed for the fifth Beastman unit.

「...」

On the chaotic battlefield, Lin Yu suddenly appeared beside Chenxi. "How’s it going? Did you get their lord?" he asked.

The sudden voice startled Chenxi. Realizing it was Lin Yu, she patted her chest, causing a slight ripple. "My Lord, only their heroes are left. We’re surrounding them now!"

In the center of the battlefield, a group of Beastman heroes was making a desperate last stand against the assault from Lin Yu’s hero team.

These Beastmen were all high-tier. Among them was one Mythic Tier Lion-man, over fifty Legendary Tier Lion-men, and more than two hundred Excellent Tier Lion-man heroes. Judging by the corpses on the ground, there must have been even more Lion-man heroes before.
