At this moment, outside the Deep City at sea.

The wind was calm and the waves were still.

The ocean and fresh blood mingled together.

The formidable South Sea Giant Demon that gave everyone headaches.

Had already lost four tentacles, with fresh blood continuously oozing out, dared not take another step forward.

Even the over a hundred thousand exotic beasts below had stopped their actions, completely intimidated.

In midair.

Lu Yuan stood on the back of the Golden-winged Roc.

The golden blood aura on his body was more terrifying than before.

In Shennongjia, he had also fused with the Blood of the Human Emperor left by Shennongshi.

At this moment, the aura he emanated was stronger than the Mythical Bloodline possessed by the Golden-winged Roc.

The exotic beasts were very sensitive to these things.

In their eyes.

That was not a human, but an enormously powerful Exotic Beast King.

This was a powerful suppression emanating from the bloodline, combined with Lu Yuan's previous impressive performance, which had already instilled fear in all the exotic beasts.

One man and one sword, deterred all the attacking monsters.

"Even if I leave now, the war between humans and exotic beasts will continue. Can you really stop it all?" The South Sea Giant Demon was intimidated, but still spoke.

As a Golden Body Realm exotic beast, it clearly understood many things and knew that humans and exotic beasts were irreconcilable.

It could retreat, but everything was just beginning. There were exotic beasts in the sea, and there were also on land.

Like the Qinling Mountains, which also concealed even more powerful existences.

It did not believe.

That Lu Yuan's power could handle everything.

Even if the opponent was indeed strong enough to kill it.

"One word, humans belong to humans, exotic beasts belong to exotic beasts."

Lu Yuan looked at the South Sea Giant Demon in front of him and slowly said, "No matter who comes, it doesn't matter to me, but anyone who dares to enter human territory will be killed. I hope you convey this message to your kind."

He knew that there was usually a special connection between powerful exotic beasts.

Just like when the White King of Qinling Mountains spoke of an exotic beast plan before it died.

Previously, Lu Yuan had kept it in mind but did not take it seriously, but now the South Sea Giant Demon apparently knew more.

So his current idea was to warn all exotic beasts through the opponent.

Because Lu Yuan was confident.

At the current time.

No matter whether it was the human side or the exotic beast side.

In terms of strength, absolutely no one surpassed him.

The best was a Golden Body Realm.

That's also why.

He knew the Wang Family of Longevity Gene was threatening with beast tides, yet still did not change his mind.

Because he was confident, he could solve everything.

"I see, I understand now."

Not far away, the South Sea Giant Demon seemed to understand Lu Yuan's thoughts.

It was also clear that invading the human world was impossible, otherwise, it would be the first to die, as the opponent had that capability.

Not acting was merely giving a chance.

Immediately.

The enormous body of the South Sea Giant Demon slowly submerged into the sea.

Beside it, those dense exotic beasts in the sea also received the command, diving into the water.

Because of the Longevity Gene Missile, they felt provoked and wanted to enter the human world, but now it was clear it was impossible; there was an extremely powerful presence among humans.

This was deterrence.

In the new era.

The law of the jungle, where the strong dominate.

Exotic beasts especially revered this principle, hence choosing to leave.

Lu Yuan knew.

His objective had been achieved.

What he wanted was to resolve the Deep City crisis, not mere slaughter.

And on the side of Deep City.

"Chief Commander, those... exotic beasts in the ocean, are gradually moving away from the outer sea, seemingly entering the deep sea..."

A soldier in charge of monitoring couldn't help but speak when he saw the red dots disappearing off the screen.

"I have already seen it."

Commander Zhang spoke, with an incomparably astonished look in his eyes.

From the moment Lu Yuan chose to battle with the South Sea Giant Demon, how long had it even been?

Then, all the sea's exotic beasts chose to retreat? Not opting to attack Deep City?

He truly, single-handedly.

Drove back all the exotic beasts?

At this moment.

It was not only Commander Zhang who was shocked.

People watching the live broadcast on the internet also got the news immediately.

"Oh my God, one man easily cut off four tentacles of the South Sea Giant Demon, intimidating a hundred thousand exotic beasts!"

"So strong, I initially thought Lu Yuan was just one of the Five Great Awakened, now he is definitely among the strongest in the country."

"One person, one sword, resolved the Deep City crisis, I believe the title of Human Emperor is definitely suitable for him."

"And it seems, his mount appears to be a king level exotic beast as well."

"That's right, I think it looks like the legendary Golden-winged Roc!"

Everyone left their comments.

Because the earlier battle between Lu Yuan and the South Sea Giant Demon had been recorded live.

Almost all the citizens and Awakened in the country watched the battle from start to finish.

Initially, many believed this would be a disaster for the Deep City.

But they never expected.

A human could be so formidable, intimidating a hundred thousand Exotic Beasts.

If he hadn't intervened, everyone knew that Deep City would have suffered devastating damage.

This was absolutely a monumental achievement!

Moreover.

Lu Yuan also had a mount of the Exotic Beast King level, suspected to be the legendary Golden-winged Roc.

"He really did it."

Dean Zheng, who was watching the live broadcast, was also astonished, his face involuntarily twitched.

If it was just speculation before, now he was completely certain that Lu Yuan was that human king.

Because only such an existence could stand against such a threat.

Beside him, even the North Emperor couldn't help but smile wryly.

He now felt that the gap between himself and Lu Yuan was indeed too great.

Clearly, not long ago, they were at the same level, but now it seemed that was just wishful thinking.

Perhaps as early as that time at the Lishan Imperial Mausoleum.

Lu Yuan.

Was already incredibly powerful.

At that time, everyone thought it was because of that sword...

Now it seems they completely underestimated him.

Zhu Qingyu didn't say anything because she always believed Lu Yuan could succeed.

"Withstanding two beast tides consecutively and rescuing two super cities, such achievements cannot go unnoticed." At this time, Dean Zheng suddenly spoke.

Previously, Lu Yuan had slain eight Great Exotic Beast Kings, which was already a significant achievement.

They just didn't know his identity back then.

Now.

He had protected Deep City as well.

He believed that Lu Yuan's deeds needed to be shared with everyone.

In the new era, where everyone was lost in confusion, such an existence was a role model.

The higher-ups had this in mind before, so after having this thought.

Dean Zheng said no more.

Immediately, in the name of Zhen Dan Academy Chang'an Branch, he released an announcement online.

And soon thereafter.

This news, once spread, shocked the internet once again.

Previously, when Chang'an City encountered an Exotic Beast attack, the one who stood at the forefront and single-handedly slew the eight Great Exotic Beast Kings was also Lu Yuan.

This news was released by Zhen Dan Academy and was an authoritative release, directly confirming his identity.

Everyone was astounded.

They initially thought that the human king was brought in by the government.

After all, he was so powerful, crushing the Exotic Beast Kings and saving Chang'an City.

But now, no one expected him to be the same person.

It turns out.

Lu Yuan is the human king!

This stirred intense discussions online, and some even named him the strongest Awakened in the country!

But as for these.

Lu Yuan was unaware, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

At this moment, after having deterred the South Sea Giant Demon and a hundred thousand Exotic Beasts single-handedly.

He didn't say much more.

He rode the Golden-winged Roc back to the steel walls of Deep City.

"The crisis has been averted. From today onward, those sea Exotic Beasts, under normal circumstances, should not choose to attack Deep City. Let your superiors withdraw the support orders."

Lu Yuan spoke softly as he looked at Commander Zhang in front of him.

He knew.

Because of the sea Exotic Beasts.

The entire Deep City was tense, and perhaps the government had also taken action.

But since he resolved the issue, naturally, there was no need to continue with it, wasting resources.

After all, the government's forces needed to protect the five super cities, serving as a reminder.

"Understood."

Commander Zhang nodded, standing very straight.

He knew Lu Yuan was strong before, so he was very polite when speaking.

But now, he understood that Lu Yuan was not only that human king but had also consecutively rescued two super cities. Such achievements, coupled with his strength, were enough to command everyone's respect.

Although he was the chief commander of the defense forces and himself a powerful Awakened.

In front of the other, he was simply not on the same level.

A strong one.

Command respect wherever they go.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan merely nodded.

What needed to be done had been done, so he naturally wouldn't stay here.

Immediately, without saying much, he once again leaped onto the back of the Golden-winged Roc, preparing to leave.

But just at this moment, when Commander Zhang wanted to say something more, his communicator rang.

As a military officer, he naturally didn't use a phone but a military-grade communicator.

Upon hearing the other side's voice.

He immediately stood at attention, nodding repeatedly, and shortly after, hung up the communicator, turning his gaze to Lu Yuan, directly saying, "Mr. Lu, if you're not busy, could you stay in Deep City for a while? The higher-ups want to invite you for a talk."

The higher-ups.

Isn't that the government?
