11: Leng Wuyou's worries!

Frenzied Charge!

A Minotaur Lord's bell-sized eyes turned blood-red, its nostrils puffing out white mist as it charged recklessly toward Lin Yue's small frame.

Previously, Lin Yue had been pinned down by three Minotaur Lords and hit with a stun, falling victim to the attack only because of a momentary lapse in caution.

Now, Lin Yue was highly focused; the moment he saw a Minotaur Lord unleash a Skill, he had already moved in advance to avoid the attack range.

Boom! The Minotaur Lord using Frenzied Charge didn't even touch the hem of Lin Yue's clothes before it crashed heavily into the wall of the underground cavern, falling into a stiffened state.

Taking advantage of its vulnerability to finish it off.

"Chain Fireball!"

Lin Yue remained calm and composed, immediately seizing the opening in the attack. A series of fireballs slammed heavily into the Minotaur Lord one after another, the scorching flames causing the air within a ten-meter radius to distort.

-1125

-1137 x2

Critical Hit

-2578

Astonishing damage numbers continuously appeared above the Minotaur Lord's head. Before it could even turn around, it was swallowed by flames and collapsed.

Another one down; no matter how much the remaining one struggled, it would be in vain.

All three Minotaur Lords were eliminated. Relying on the Spell Lifesteal from the Embrace of Nether Fire, Lin Yue's health recovered by several thousand points.

The subsequent operations were exactly the same. Lin Yue pulled the aggro of two Minotaur Lords at a time. All twenty Minotaur Lords were killed in less than ten minutes.

"Ding! You have obtained Common Equipment +1, silver coin +50."

"Ding! You have obtained Advanced Equipment +1, silver coin +60."

"Ding! You have obtained Minotaur Lord's Heart, one Skill Book, silver coin +55."

The entire second floor of the underground was covered in Materials and equipment, and quite a few silver coins had dropped. It had to be said that the drop rate in an Instance was much higher than that of Wild Monsters.

Furthermore, through the Spell Lifesteal effect of the Embrace of Nether Fire, Lin Yue's health returned to full once again... Meanwhile.

Ba Tian Club's offline meeting hall.

Overlord Divine Bow hung his head, being reprimanded submissively by a refined young man.

"Divine Bow, you are a national second-class shooter after all, yet you were insta-killed before you could even test the opponent's strength. How can I feel at ease letting you be part of management?"

Overlord Divine Bow's expression changed drastically. "Young Lord, it was my carelessness. Next time I encounter White Emperor, I will definitely be able to test his true strength."

Ba Tian Rexue stood up. "Young Lord, everyone has heard of White Emperor's reputation by now. The first Level 10 player, the first to kill a boss—it's normal for someone like that to have high attributes. Perhaps he has some special talent."

Overlord Dead End chimed in, "That's right, Young Lord. We know Divine Bow's strength; he just had bad luck and ran into a stat monster."

"No, you've all missed a point. It's not just that his attributes are freakishly high; what's truly terrifying is his technique. Divine Bow, tell everyone the details of your battle."

The young man commanded in an unquestionable tone.

Overlord Divine Bow stood up, looked at the crowd, and recounted the details of the battle.

Those present gasped in shock after hearing it.

"You mean he predicted the exact moment you'd show your head for your next attack? Holy crap, that calculation ability is no joke."

"Only two out of four sure-kill arrows hit? Combined with his massive damage, if we've provoked someone like this, it's not good."

"Listening to this, Divine Bow, I'm afraid you've provoked a powerful enemy for the guild."

"If you ask me, you're all too tense. So what if White Emperor is strong? He's just a solo player. What if we offended him? Does he really dare to challenge our Overlord Guild?"

In the meeting room, the club's high-level executives were buzzing with discussion like a wet market. The refined young man slapped the table, and the scene immediately fell silent.

"Enough, stop talking. Divine Bow, since you caused this, you solve it. Either find a way to recruit him, or find a way to prevent him from growing. I don't need to tell you the specifics of how to handle it, do I?"

Overlord Divine Bow nodded and stood up, saying, "Understood, Young Lord. I will definitely resolve this matter properly."

"Meeting adjourned."

...On the other side, the Feng Yun Guild was also holding a meeting.

"Young Master Leng, so you're saying you leveled up so fast because you latched onto White Emperor's coattails?"

Feng Yun Fire had a strange expression. "Not a single person in our own guild's pioneering team leveled up as fast as a solo player. This guy is too incredible."

Leng Wuyou nodded. "His damage is terrifying and his technique is superb. I offered him fifty million a year, and he didn't even blink."

Feng Yun Bianhuan thought of something. "This person must be financially powerful in reality as well. You can tell by how he only accepts game coins instead of cash; he's not short on money at all. He might even be a second-generation rich kid from some corporation."

"Regardless of his identity in reality, in short, everyone from my Feng Yun Guild must be respectful when they encounter White Emperor. There must be no conflict. I have already established a preliminary cooperative relationship with White Emperor Boss. All of you, keep a close eye on your subordinates."

"Understood, Young Master Leng."

Everyone nodded in unison. They weren't stupid; with White Emperor's reputation right there, who would be bored enough to provoke him?

If they could win, that would be one thing, but if they couldn't, they would have unwittingly offended this mysterious boss.

"Alright, you guys continue studying the techniques I mentioned. I have something to attend to and need to head out."

Leng Wuyou left the meeting room directly. He felt a strange sense of unease in his heart. What exactly did those words White Emperor said before logging off mean? Did he know some insider information?

Watch out for the wine offered by a woman?

Who could it be that wants to harm me?

Leng Wuyou frowned. Although he was the heir to the Leng Clan Group, he had many competitors. If someone wanted to harm him in secret, he had to take precautions in advance.

A Rolls-Royce slowly pulled up at the club's entrance, and the driver got out to open the door.

"To the group headquarters."

"Yes, Young Master Leng."

The car started, and Leng Wuyou fell into deep thought.

Dungeon of Gloomy Ruins.

Lin Yue finished clearing the battlefield and entered the third floor.

Compared to the previous two floors, the terrain of this floor was much more open, and there were only five monsters.

Gloomy Minotaur King (Boss): Level 10.

health: 215,200

Attack Power: 980

Skills: Lords Roar (stun), Savage Bull Stomp (float), Frenzied Charge, Damage Reduction Shield, Brute Force Strike

The Skills hadn't changed, but the attributes were significantly enhanced. Although there were only five of them, they were not to be underestimated.

Boom!

-1008

-1017

As expected of a boss-level Minotaur; not only was its health high, but its magic defense was also much higher. Lin Yue could clearly see that when the Chain Fireball hit the Gloomy Minotaur King, a layer of transparent ripples reduced the impact of the Fireball Spell.

Activating a shield even at full health; it really is tough.

"Roar!"

Enraged by the attack, the Shadow Minotaur let out a massive roar toward the sky, making Lin Yue's hair stand on end. If he were hit by the roar at close range, the stun duration would be longer than that of the elite monsters.

Fortunately, Lin Yue didn't need to face five bosses at once. Even if the terrain was open, he would avoid being swarmed if he could.

Standing five meters tall with a massive body, the Minotaur King approached Lin Yue carrying a giant axe. Lin Yue was highly focused, the battle instincts within him ignited.

Savage Bull Stomp (float)

Shock!

"Chain Fireball!"

Boom!

The battle was about to erupt.
