Chapter 1283: Chapter 1282: One Sword Annihilates the Mutant Beasts

"Travel, travel?!" Captain Zhan Po thought he had heard wrong and couldn’t keep up with the conversation.

Lu Yang pointed backwards at the Black Canopy Boat: "Look, that’s my boat."

The members of the Salvation Team nearly popped their eyeballs out when they saw the Black Canopy Boat.

When Lu Yang mentioned he had a boat, they imagined a spacecraft with a metallic sheen, full of a futuristic and technological vibe.

But they never expected it to be just an ordinary boat.

This kind of boat would be featured at the beginning of history books!

"Right, you said this big tiger is the King of Mutant Beasts, able to control all Mutant Beasts. Now that it’s dead, what will happen to the Mutant Beasts, will they just die off?"

Zhan Po shook his head: "The most challenging aspect of dealing with Mutant Beasts is their organized actions. With the King of Mutant Beasts dead, we humans have the chance to break them one by one."

Zhan Po’s tone was decisive, his expression full of longing and expectation: "Ten years, at most ten years, and we humans will be able to reclaim Sky Sea Star, which rightfully belongs to us!"

The Salvation Team imagined the future and couldn’t help but smile.

Lu Yang also smiled and said, "Ten years is too long. Let me give you a hand."

Before the Salvation Team could react, Lu Yang stood up, drew out his Green Peak Sword, and with their jaws dropped in astonishment, he lifted off the ground and took flight.

Even the ever-talkative Yuan Xing was rendered speechless at the moment.

"Captain, can people actually fly?" Shi Lingyun nudged the captain. He had evolved to the utmost, so why couldn’t he fly?

And he didn’t have any wings, so how could he fly?

"Don’t ask me, I don’t know either."

Lu Yang soared through the clouds, arriving above Sky Sea Star, his Spiritual Sense spread out, covering the entire star, locking onto all Mutant Beasts.

Every Mutant Beast on this star was under Lu Yang’s full surveillance—the Beast Tide attacking cities, soldiers fighting to the death, and generals sharing their fate with their city.

Three of the top ten masters among the humans were among them, resisting the Beast Tide.

Even though the big tiger was dead and the Mutant Beasts had lost control, their bloodlust had been ignited in battle, and even without someone to control them, they would still attack the cities.

Mutant Beasts weren’t only on land but also in the sea, and there were several in the ocean on par with the big tiger, as well as one more powerful than the big tiger.

Perhaps that one in the ocean was the real King of Mutant Beasts; only the human elites and the Salvation Team were unaware of its existence.

"One Sword Becomes Ten Thousand."

The Green Peak Sword traced an arc in the sky, leaving behind an indelible sword image that spread like wildfire at an incredible speed.

If someone were in outer space, they would see Sky Sea Star coated in a golden sheen—that was the gleaming light of countless Green Peak Swords.

Using his index and middle fingers together, the immense Spiritual Sense locked onto every Mutant Beast, a sword image hovering above each of their heads.

He simply exhaled one word.

"Fall."

Sword images like scattered light, raining down like swords, the sword shadows acting like divine punishment, indiscriminately piercing through every bloodthirsty Mutant Beast.

No matter if it was the ordinary Mutant Beasts on land or the true King of Mutant Beasts hidden in the deep sea, each required only one sword image.

Feeling the threat to its life, the King of Mutant Beasts in the ocean tried desperately to escape. However, golden sword shadows descended from the heavens, plunging into the sea, and instead of slowing down, their speed increased even more.

The King of Mutant Beasts twisted its tentacles to fend off the attack.

Boom—

A mist of blood spread, and this King of Mutant Beasts, having not yet wreaked havoc in the human world, died at the bottom of the sea never reached by humans.

The Salvation Team did not know what Lu Yang, soaring through the sky, was planning to do. They were in the territory of the great tiger, with no mutant beasts nearby. All they could see was a distant descent of golden light.

Then, a hissing noise came through their communication channel, from the three Masters tasked with defending the city.

"Zhan Po, have you succeeded!?"

"The King of Mutant Beasts has been killed by you!"

"How did you do it? Swords, so many golden swords descended from the sky, killing all the mutant beasts!"

The city-defending human Masters spoke with an excited and incoherent tone. Knowing that the Salvation Team had gone to kill the King of Mutant Beasts, they naturally connected this event with the Salvation Team.

The Salvation Team looked at each other, shock and fear in their eyes.

What kind of method was this?!

Lu Yang landed with a smile, sheathing his Green Peak Sword: "Done."

"Mr. Lu..."

Lu Yang raised his hand to interrupt Shi Lingyun: "Let’s talk while we walk. Along the way, tell me your stories and show me around your city. If I could meet your President, that would be even better."

"That’s a given, that’s a given," Shi Lingyun hurriedly said. Even if Mr. Lu didn’t mention it, the President would take the initiative to meet him.

Seeing that Zhan Po was about to speak but hesitated, glancing at the great tiger’s corpse, Lu Yang understood what he meant.

He used the Identity Jade to collect the great tiger’s body. The mountain-like corpse shrank and vanished, once again astonishing the Salvation Team.

On the road, Lu Yang had the members of the Salvation Team recount their pasts in turn. Lu Yang simply listened, occasionally interrupting with a question or two. After clarifying their doubts, he would let them continue with their stories.

When the last person finished their story, Lu Yang seemed to smile wistfully:

"Each of you had different starting points and experiences, and then you formed the Salvation Team. You were still in sync until the decisive battle, becoming one whole. In the subsequent battle against the King of Mutant Beasts, Shi Lingyun, you made a breakthrough on the spot, defeating the King of Mutant Beasts, and became a hero of the human race. Brilliant, very brilliant."

Lu Yang applauded, seeming to cheer for their life experiences, leaving Zhan Po and the others puzzled. They felt that Mr. Lu was praising them, but the tone seemed off.

Lu Yang took out the great tiger’s corpse in advance and let the Salvation Team carry it as their trophy, allowing them to show off in front of the public.

When they reached the city, the city walls were stained with blood, having endured countless bloody battles.

By now, the news of the Salvation Team’s defeat of the King of Mutant Beasts had spread, and the city gates were wide open, with the excited populace welcoming the heroes back in triumph.

The President came out to meet them in person.

The President was an old man around sixty years old, the former leader of the Top Ten Masters. He warmly embraced Zhan Po and the others.

"Zhan Po, Shi Lingyun, and all of you, I knew you could do it!"

When he came to Lu Yang and met his dark eyes, feeling as if all his secrets were seen through, the President hesitated for a moment before choosing to come forward and shake hands.

"This must be the alien Mr. Lu, thank you so much for saving us."

"This is not a place for an extended conversation. Let’s talk in my office," the President invited the Salvation Team and the alien Mr. Lu to the core area of the city.

In the office, the President personally served tea and water to everyone, showing great people skills.

Lu Yang took the cup of tea from the President, expressed his thanks, and then casually asked, "By the way, Mr. President, what are our surveillance ratings?"
