Chapter 262: Chapter 169: The Arrival of the Grey Wolf Legion
Translator: 549690339
The moment when the head of the Golden Hou Beast was severed, many of the attacking demon beasts on the city wall were taken aback.
The Golden Hou Beast was of a legendary ancient lineage, although diluted, but its physical prowess was unparalleled, coupled with its ancient power inheritance, it was a formidable foe.
Its abnormal attributes included its unparalleled offensive and defensive abilities, the Golden-edge Swordfang, and its defensive and repressive Hundred-refined Vajra Ring.
In such a situation, even when facing a Sixth-Rank demon beast, it could engage in combat and remain undefeatable.
But the ostensibly invincible Golden Hou Beast was killed.
“The Golden Hou Beast?” Just as the Pig Monster was dodging Liu Wuhen’s arrows and preparing to slay him in one stroke, it froze, leading to an arrow striking it, the extreme cold burst out, instantly freezing half of its body.
“The Golden Hou Beast is dead?” The Green-scaled Giant Eagle, its body awash with a green glow, was also taken aback.
The Golden Hou Beast’s strength was well-known to the Green-scaled Giant Eagle, who had an ancient lineage itself, required to be cautious, not daring to offend it.
What’s more, it knew that the King of the Cloud Dream Mountain Range, the Shadow Fox King, highly valued the Golden Hou Beast.
But now, it is dead, killed by a slash from a human youth not yet of the Fifth Realm.
“Lu Yun has killed the Golden Hou Beast?” The Black Tiger Army’s excitement was in stark contrast to the beast’s horror.
Although Lu Yun had previously plunged into the demon beast army, slaughtering hundreds of demon beasts, demonstrating unparalleled combat prowess.
But when the Golden Hou Beast demonstrated its terrifying capabilities and hidden powers, they didn’t hold out much hope anymore, only hoping that Lu Yun could hold off this horrifying demon beast and delay its attack.
Who would have thought, the Golden Hou Beast was eventually felled by one blow?
“Lu Yun managed to kill the formidable Golden Hou Beast, as long as we can hold off these demon beasts, there is still hope!” Commander Wang Yinghu shouted jubilantly, all of the Black Tiger Army’s morale greatly boosted, valiantly fighting against the demons, collectively choosing martyrdom over capitulation, the scene was immensely tragic.
“Commander Liu, I’ll hold him off, you focus on the attack from a distance.” Commander Wang Yinghu, spear in hand, charged at the Pig Monster.
“Alright, be careful, Commander Wang. Try not to confront it directly and just hold it off!” Liu Wuhen dashed away like the wind, quickly creating some distance.
“You’re asking for death!” The Pig Monster raged at the sight of the one-armed human who had suddenly appeared. Waving its dual axes, it launched a sweeping attack, unleashing a fierce wind and overpowering light.
“Clang.”
A spear promptly blocked the attack while deftly retreating.
The Pig Monster was tremendously strong, and the power of its dual axes was incredibly fearsome. When the axes hit the black spear, their powerful force along with the fierce wind forced Wang Yinghu to rapidly retreat, nearly causing him to fall from the city wall.
In swift response, the spear sank into a brick to halt the retreat. Wang Yinghu, using the spear as a lever, vaulted over to a safe distance.
“Where are you going?”
The Pig Monster leapt off the ground, descending upon Wang Yinghu like a mountain, swinging its dual axes towards him in attack.
Boom!
The city wall, usually extremely robust, was instantly destroyed. Wang Yinghu was sent into a forced retreat.
Just as the Pig Monster was preparing for another attack, an arrow swiftly approached from a distance. The sound of the air breaking was clear, and a cold energy permeated through its fur, threatening to freeze its body.
Sensing a strong risk, the Pig Monster abandoned its follow-up attack and evaded the Ice Arrow instead.
Wang Yinghu wouldn’t miss such an excellent opportunity. He halted his retreat, and his spear swung around, the might of his flood dragon attack once again unleashing.
The Pig Monster had barely managed to hold off the arrow attack before the one-armed warrior launched another assault. It had no time to prevent the attack and could only hastily raise its axe to block it.
In such a scenario, under the combined efforts of Liu Wuhen and Commander Wang Yinghu, the Fifth-rank Peak Pig Monster was forced into a continuous retreat.
“Indeed, fighting alongside the Divine Archer is a different experience altogether.” Commander Wang Yinghu was inwardly astounded. Initially, he just wanted to help Liu Wuhen ease some pressure and let the Divine Archer unleash his full power. He was fully prepared to be cornered by the Pig Monster, but the outcome was greatly beyond his expectations.
Boom.
A single spear thrust made the Pig Monster retreat, and from both sides came attacks imbued with a harmful cold energy, but it was blocked by a giant axe.
Wang Yinghu wanted to corner the Pig Monster completely with his spear, making it incapable of dodging Liu Wuhen’s attacks.
But the Pig Monster didn’t take the bait and instead struck the wall with its axe to propel itself towards another direction, where other demon beasts were present, to escape.
As long as another demon beast could hold off Liu Wuhen or Wang Yinghu, it was confident of defeating them one by one.
However, due to the battle between Lu Yun and the Golden Hou Beast, many of the demon beasts, instead of climbing up the city wall, had scattered and retreated. With less backup, the beasts on the wall couldn’t maintain their dominance.
Furthermore, with Lu Yun slaying the Golden Hou Beast, the morale of the demon beasts was yet again affected, and many of the demon beasts gradually lost their will to fight. For a time, they were suppressed by the Black Tiger Army and didn’t have the chance to call for reinforcements.
Lu Yun had been keeping an eye on the situation on the wall. Seeing that the demon beasts were now at a disadvantage, he heaved a sigh of relief, while also cheerfully claiming the treasures of the Golden Hou Beast as his own.
Looking at the White Scale Purple Gold Knife in his hand which was now completely destroyed, Lu Yun felt no burden in his heart.
“Human?” The Pig Monster prepared to retreat and looked solemnly at Lu Yun, who had suddenly appeared in front of it.
“Since you’ve come, don’t try to escape.” Lu Yun spoke, one hand held a broken knife, the other gripped a radiant Hundred-refined Vajra Ring..
