22: Look behind you!

Overlord Savage Bull frowned. He had over a dozen elite players on his side; was this guy really not afraid at all?

"White Emperor, I advise you to leave this place. Don't make a powerful enemy for yourself."

Overlord Savage Bull shouted at the top of his lungs. He knew White Emperor was strong, but he wasn't a pushover himself.

With six Warriors, six Archers, two Mages, and two Healers, Overlord Savage Bull felt that no matter how strong the opponent was in a duel, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.

"A powerful enemy?"

Lin Yue's figure gradually became clear. His cold gaze fixed on Overlord Savage Bull; while he appeared calm on the surface, a tempest was raging within his heart.

"Isn't it? Everyone here is an elite above Level 8. No matter how strong you are, you can't possibly defeat us. If you die once, I wonder if you'll ever be able to reclaim the top spot."

Overlord Savage Bull thrust his longsword into the ground and spoke with an undiminished Aura, sounding quite convincing.

"You think you can kill me? Haha!"

Lin Yue's laughter echoed through the valley as his disdainful gaze swept across the field.

"Are you pieces of trash even worthy?"

As he spoke, his golden staff erupted with intense red light, and a scorching, crimson fireball shot rapidly toward the rear of Overlord Savage Bull's group.

"Shit, protect the backline!"

Lin Yue's sudden attack caught Overlord Savage Bull off guard. By the time he reacted, a Priest standing in the back had already been turned into a human torch by the flames, their shrill screams echoing through the valley.

"All Warriors, push forward! Archers, form up! Mages and Priests, focus on dodging!"

Overlord Savage Bull was experienced; even after losing a teammate, he quickly organized a strategy. He then raised his longsword and was the first to charge at Lin Yue.

The elite teams of the major guilds were all highly skilled. After only a brief moment of chaos, they quickly found their positions and formed a battle array to attack Lin Yue.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

In the sky, six arrows turned into streaks of silver light. Three Warriors held shields to block Lin Yue's casting space and protect the backline, while the other three followed Overlord Savage Bull with longswords to charge at Lin Yue.

Their movements were synchronized and their coordination seamless—truly worthy of being called elite players.

Unfortunately!

They were facing White Emperor, the current number one player in the world.

With a Casting Speed of 3.0, Lin Yue could fire three Chain Fireballs in a single second.

Before Overlord Savage Bull and the others could close in, fireballs rained down like machine-gun fire on the three Shield Warriors at the front of the group.

Boom, boom, boom!

The fireballs exploded in all directions, but it wasn't over yet; two consecutive bolts of lightning, as thick as thumbs, struck down fiercely from the Void Realm.

"Ah—!"

With a single scream, the three Tank Warriors, who had nearly four thousand health points, were instantly killed.

*Hiss!*

This scene left Yun Ruoqing, who was hiding by the cliff, completely dumbfounded.

She never expected that the person her good friend, Xia Moyanyu, had called to help would be the famous White Emperor!

This damage was simply Heaven-Defying!

"Watch out!"

Yun Ruoqing called out a warning. In just a brief moment, a rain of arrows had reached the space above Lin Yue's head; in the next second, he would be turned into a pincushion.

-998

-998

With a lean back and a side step, Lin Yue managed to dodge most of the arrows; of the six that should have hit, only two found their mark.

Yun Ruoqing's brain short-circuited. This... he could even dodge basic attacks?

How is that possible!

Then, a scene occurred that caused Yun Ruoqing's pupils to contract violently.

While dodging the rain of arrows, Lin Yue waved his right hand, and two fireballs directly struck a sword-wielding Warrior attacking from the right. The opponent was killed instantly before even touching the hem of Lin Yue's clothes.

"Damn, does he have eyes in the back of his head?"

Yun Ruoqing couldn't help but swear; she really hadn't expected Lin Yue's mechanics to be so extreme.

All of this happened in just two short seconds, and the Overlord Guild had already lost four elite players.

"Die!"

Overlord Savage Bull, along with the two Warriors behind him, swung their longswords fiercely at Lin Yue's head.

Losing four teammates in an instant was a massive humiliation for him as the captain.

However, an even greater humiliation was yet to come.

Seeing the three Warriors close in, Lin Yue simply stood still, not even bothering to dodge.

-1188

-788

-778

Damage numbers totaling nearly three thousand rose from Lin Yue's head. Overlord Savage Bull grinned:

"White Emperor, let's see if you die this time!"

But in the next second, his smile froze. Despite the damage from the three Warriors' close-range skills, the opponent's health bar had barely moved.

"Holy shit!"

Only then did Overlord Savage Bull remember what Overlord Divine Bow had told him: "White Emperor's health is extremely high. If you encounter him, whatever you do, don't fight him—you can't kill him!"

However, in the brief moment of Overlord Savage Bull's Divided Soul, Lin Yue's staff did not stop. Chain Fireballs were hurled as if they cost nothing, striking whoever was in sight.

The two Warriors following Savage Bull couldn't withstand the massive damage either and collapsed, dead.

At this point, all six Warriors had been killed, leaving only Overlord Savage Bull.

"Fuck you! I'll have your life!"

With so many elites losing levels and gear, Overlord Savage Bull shuddered at the thought of the consequences. After he logged off, the Young Lord would definitely skin him alive.

Chain Slash!

-1111x3

Mighty Slash!

-1555 (Stunned)

Facing the enraged Overlord Savage Bull, Lin Yue chuckled. Ignoring the other's attacks entirely, he pointed his staff directly at the other players of the Overlord Guild.

Chain Fireball!

Purify!

Rumble!

Wind howled through the valley as thunder and flames erupted. Wherever Lin Yue's staff pointed, flames swept through, leaving nothing alive.

An Archer, unable to dodge in time, was turned into a human torch.

Wails and cries of pain echoed through the valley!

This wasn't just killing people; it was easier than slaughtering chickens.

Yun Ruoqing sped toward the crowd, her dagger glinting with a cold light. She leaped into the air and landed behind the only remaining Priest.

Backstab!

Critical Hit!

-1999

Lacerate!

-1555

Fatal Blow!

-2188!

High damage numbers appeared one after another as a storm of attacks rained down upon the Priest.

The Priest's health bottomed out, leaving only a sliver of life.

"You..."

Terrified, the Priest tried to cast a Healing Spell, but before it could be released, their vision went dark, and they fell dead.

Throat Cut!

-2999!

With a murderous look in her eyes, Yun Ruoqing vanished into the shadows again, launching a surprise attack on a nearby Mage.

Only now did the remaining players of the Overlord Guild realize that besides White Emperor, there was another expert present.

Seeds of hatred sprouted in their hearts. Yun Ruoqing moved like a ghost of the shadows; with the Overlord Guild having lost all its frontliners, those Archers and Mages were already dead in her eyes.

"Yun Ruoqing, how dare you!"

Overlord Savage Bull's eyes nearly burst from their sockets. Dealing with White Emperor was already difficult enough, and now that Yun Ruoqing had joined the fray, the battle had become completely one-sided.

Overlord Savage Bull could only attack White Emperor frantically, trying to kill him so he could go support his teammates.

However, after over ten seconds of violent attacks, White Emperor's health bar was still long, seemingly without end.

"Huff, huff... You're a fucking freak!"

For the first time, Overlord Savage Bull felt that hacking away at someone was exhausting.

Lin Yue glanced at his health, which was still as high as fifty thousand, and said calmly:

"Are you done hacking at me?"

"Heh, don't get cocky. I'm definitely going to kill you!"

Overlord Savage Bull's eyes were bloodshot; now, all he could see was Lin Yue's health bar.

Lin Yue's gaze turned pitying, and he spoke with a condescending tone.

"Then look behind you!"
