"Sword Drawing Technique!"
Lu Yuan gave a low shout.
In an instant.
A sharp blade flashed.
The demonic beasts at the forefront were cleaved in two, losing their lives instantly before they could even react.
Mu Beiye watched this scene through Lu Yuan's eyes, and was horrified.
Although these demonic beasts are not of high level, they are at least at the Xuanzhen level or even the Earth Spirit level.
So he was easily defeated by Lu Yuan with a single strike?!
But that wasn't all that surprised him.
After Lu Yuan killed the demon beast charging at the front, the demon beasts that followed crashed into the outer golden light barrier, and a series of shrill screams rang out.
I turned my head to look.
Those monsters that touched the golden light barrier emitted black smoke, and a faint aroma like roasted meat could be smelled.
"A fiery array?!"
Until then.
Mu Beiye recognized the rising formation before him and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
This is an eighth-order formation!
Lu Yuan is merely a Beast Tamer of the Earth Spirit level; how could he possibly use an eighth-order formation?!
Moreover, even though he was still attached to Lu Yuan, he didn't notice Lu Yuan's engraving movements at all.
Has he already managed to bypass the tedious drawing and engraving steps?!
Such terrifying ability was something he had never seen even in the top array masters who were hailed as having the greatest array talent throughout history!
After dealing with the monsters in front of him, Lu Yuan slowly spoke.
"I will do everything in my power to stop that ferocious beast. I request that Commander Mu immediately organize manpower to establish a defensive line in the city!"
Mu Beiye frowned after hearing this.
"I'll send someone with you! Although I hope you can help stop that ferocious beast, it doesn't mean I'm sending you to your death!"
But Lu Yuan shook his head and refused without even thinking.
"The biggest help to me is to move everyone away so that they don't become a burden."
"And what I'm about to do, I don't want anyone else to see."
Upon hearing this, Mu Beiye remained silent for a moment.
He knew that Lu Yuan was not as simple as he appeared. Just as he had secrets to hide from everyone, Lu Yuan also had his own secrets.
"I understand! I will move everyone away as you request. I'll leave the beast to you!"
"Let's get going, it's really disgusting to have a voice that isn't your own constantly echoing in your head!" Lu Yuan waved with a smile. "I'm leaving the city to you, I haven't even had time to transfer all my assets yet!"
Hearing Lu Yuan's deliberately relaxed tone, Mu Beiye felt a lump in his throat, but he forced a smile and spoke.
"Don't worry! I'll reimburse you for all the losses that occur in this battle!"
"...You must survive!"
With a murmur, Lu Yuan felt something being detached from his body. He chuckled, concentrated his spiritual energy into the Swiftwind Boots on his feet, and quickly sped towards the Blazing Sun Forest.
...
After leaving Lu Yuan's body, Mu Beiye immediately attached himself to Meng Jiaqi's body.
"Old Meng!"
"Brother Mu?!"
Meng Jiaqi's originally dim eyes suddenly lit up, her face full of surprise, but then her expression quickly fell back down.
"I'm sorry, Brother Mu, I've let you down. I failed to hold the line..."
At this moment, Meng Jiaqi was covered in blood, not only from the demon beasts, but also from much of his own blood.
The once tenacious defensive line had completely collapsed under wave after wave of attacks from the monsters, leaving only a few scattered team members still fighting bloody battles among the monsters, while most of the others had become part of the battlefield.
"It's not time to give up yet!"
Just as Meng Jiaqi was about to be overwhelmed by guilt and helplessness, Mu Beiye's firm voice rang out.
"Someone has already gone to solve the root cause of this beast tide. Now all we need to do is trust him and hold the line!"
"The...root cause of the beast tide?"
Meng Jiaqi was slightly startled.
He had long sensed that the appearance of this beast tide was somewhat inexplicable, and sure enough, there was an external interference at play!
But……
"Brother Mu, who are they? Are they reliable? Should I go with them?"
But Mu Beiye rejected him without even thinking.
"The other side is very reliable! You can't go with them; you'll need to take command of rebuilding the defensive line!"
Hearing this, Meng Jiaqi felt a little more at ease, but looking at the crumbling defenses around her, her expression turned serious again.
"But this defensive line..."
"It's alright." Mu Beiye's voice was distant, as if it came from another dimension. "A temporary setback doesn't mean anything. The important thing is that we haven't given up."
...
Lu Yuan ran wildly in the direction of the Scorching Sun Forest from his memory, and once again experienced the cruelty of war on the way.
Limbs were scattered everywhere, a mixture of human and beast parts, some so badly shattered that their species were unrecognizable.
The bright red blood gathered into rivers, slowly spreading outwards.
The strong stench of blood seeped into his brain through his nasal cavity, and Lu Yuan's eyes gradually turned red.
Suddenly.
Lu Yuan seemed to catch a glimpse of something familiar out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Then, turning his head, he saw a familiar figure lying on the ground!
"Brother Yang?!"
Lu Yuan ran over quickly, taking two steps at a time, and carefully helped Yang Lin up from the ground. He immediately gasped.
Yang Lin's injuries were extremely serious.
His entire right arm was gone, judging from the wound, it must have been bitten off by a monster. His body was covered with wounds of all sizes, too many to count on both hands.
"Little Yi!"
Without a second thought, Lu Yuan immediately summoned Xiao Yi from the Beast Taming Space.
"Help him treat his wound!"
After saying that.
He immediately turned around and went to find the other three.
Since Yang Lin is lying here, the other three should not be far away either.
really.
Lu Yuan quickly found Du Pengyi and the others not far from where Yang Lin had collapsed, and immediately instructed Xiao Yi to provide them with first aid.
Fortunately, Xiao Yi's spiritual power has recovered a lot, which is more than enough to save these four people.
Upon learning that Yang Lin and the others had escaped with their lives, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness!
Fortunately, they are all still alive.
After confirming that Yang Lin and the others were out of immediate danger, Lu Yuan summoned Ling Ye from the Beast Taming Space and had the two of them return Yang Lin and the other three to Meng Jiaqi.
After all this was arranged...
Lu Yuan sped off towards the Scorching Sun Forest again.
