Chapter 97: Eliminate the Wolf Bandits, Rid the People of Harm, Young Master Liangchen's Reputation Grows!
After resting for a night, the next day, Lin Yu set off and left the city where he had temporarily stayed.
Following the information he gathered, he began searching for the wolf bandits' traces along the mountains near the city.
Although the wolf bandits were indeed a nuisance in the western frontier of the Heaven Dou Empire, it didn't mean that they had taken control of the mountains and were directly confronting the Heaven Dou Empire's official forces.
That would be impossible!
The wolf bandits were merely a hybrid of the Swift Wind Magic Wolf and humans.
Their highest-ranked members were only about the strength of a Soul Scholar or Soul King, with most of them only reaching levels between Soul Ancestor and Soul Grandmaster.
With such strength, if the wolf bandits dared to claim a mountain, the Heaven Dou Empire could easily send a Soul Saint to destroy their base.
The reason the wolf bandits became a problem in the western frontier was due to their behavior—just like thieves, they were stealthy and elusive.
They didn't have a fixed base. They lived in the deep mountains and occasionally descended to raid human villages. They would kill all the men and take the women back to the mountains to hide.
Thanks to their Swift Wind Magic Wolf bloodline, the wolf bandits were extremely agile in the mountains.
Many human attempts to eliminate them had yielded little results.
After leaving the city, Lin Yu activated the External Spirit Bone - Wind Thunder Wing and began patrolling the mountains.
He patrolled the area for an entire morning.
In the afternoon, as Lin Yu was flying along a mountain range, he suddenly saw thick smoke rising from the horizon.
"This is..."
As soon as he saw the smoke, Lin Yu's heart moved. He immediately spread his External Spirit Bone - Wind Thunder Wing and rushed toward the source of the smoke.
Soon, Lin Yu arrived at the location where the smoke was rising.
It was a village.
However, this village appeared as though it had just been raided by bandits. The houses were destroyed and in ruins.
There were bloodstains and torn clothes scattered across the ground. The village's valuable possessions were left untouched, but every person and animal had been taken.
Without a second thought, Lin Yu immediately deduced who had attacked the village.
This was definitely the work of the wolf bandits!
Following the trail of blood, Lin Yu used Swift Water Flowing to quickly pursue.
After about ten minutes of chasing, Lin Yu finally spotted his target.
In a forest, he saw a group of strange-looking people. Each was extraordinarily tall, over two meters in height, with robust physiques. They wore mismatched, ragged clothes.
On the surface, they seemed merely odd in appearance.
But a closer look revealed that these people had dense, gray fur growing all over their bodies, their faces resembling wolves, with lips protruding outward, showing sharp fangs. Their faces were painted with some unknown green plant, resembling camouflage.
What made Lin Yu even more enraged was that many of these wolf bandits were carrying the bodies of human men on their backs, as though they were carrying dried meat. Some of the bodies had been disemboweled.
And among them, there were even wolf bandits carrying tied-up young women, who screamed in terror, but the bandits seemed indifferent, occasionally exchanging smug howls with one another.
"So, these are the wolf bandits? Truly a bunch of beasts!"
Seeing the disemboweled male corpses and the crying young women, Lin Yu's blood boiled with fury. He clenched his fists, his anger igniting.
As the saying goes: "Like attracts like!"
Seeing so many humans tortured and killed by these inhumans right in front of him was something Lin Yu could never tolerate.
In his fury, Lin Yu no longer intended to hold back.
"Golden Sacred Dragon Spirit, activate!"
He roared in his heart, instantly summoning the Golden Sacred Dragon spirit and entering the Spirit Possession state.
Then, he used Swift Water Flowing and charged at the group of wolf bandits.
In an instant, a golden light shot out from the forest and flew into the sky. It crashed down among the wolf bandits, one paw tearing the head of a wolf bandit to pieces.
"Roar!"
Seeing the dragon-like figure of Lin Yu, the wolf bandits immediately felt threatened by the dragon's aura. The leader's howl split the air as the bandits quickly scattered.
"You think you can run!"
Seeing some of the wolf bandits trying to escape, Lin Yu sneered and immediately used Meihua Zongzou, rapidly closing in on them.
Then, he used Lieqiang Leg Strike, kicking one of the wolf bandits in the chest, shattering his ribcage and sending him flying.
"Bone Dragon Claw!"
"Circle of Golden Fingers!"
After charging into the group of wolf bandits, Lin Yu relentlessly pursued them. He used Meihua Zongzou to get close, then unleashed his three main martial arts: Bone Dragon Claw, Lieqiang Leg Strike, and Circle of Golden Fingers.
In just a few seconds, over ten wolf bandits fell at Lin Yu's feet—either their heads exploded, their hearts ripped out, or their bodies pulverized!
However, the number of wolf bandits was still too large—around four to five hundred.
After leaving dozens of bandits to hold Lin Yu off, the rest of the wolf bandits, under the command of their leader, quickly surrounded him.
Then, with a loud roar from the leader, the wolf bandits released a barrage of green wind blades toward Lin Yu.
"Roar!!"
"You think some wind blades can kill me?!"
Lin Yu, unfazed by the incoming green wind blades, coldly sneered, summoned his Chaos Qinglian Spirit, and activated his second spirit skill, Purifying White Lotus.
"Purify!"
In an instant, a pure, flawless white light erupted from Lin Yu's Purifying White Lotus spirit.
The vast number of green wind blades shot at him were all purified and dissolved by the pure light.
The wolf bandits stared in shock.
At that moment, Lin Yu, under the protection of the purifying light, used Meihua Zongzou to rush straight toward the wolf bandit leader.
With the purifying light shielding him, Lin Yu burst through the storm of wind blades and reached the wolf bandit leader. With one strike of Bone Dragon Claw, he crushed the leader's head!
With the leader's death, the remaining wolf bandits fell into chaos. They began to howl in panic and scatter in all directions.
But there was no escape from Lin Yu's pursuit!
With his External Spirit Bone - Wind Thunder Wing and Swift Water Flowing, Lin Yu quickly cut down the fleeing wolf bandits and saved the young women they had kidnapped.
He gave the women some travel money and advised them to find their relatives.
From that point on, Lin Yu's reputation as Ye Liangchen began to spread as he continued hunting down the wolf bandits, both ridding the people of harm and honing his martial arts skills.
People began to call him: Young Master Liangchen!
