Human beings are in a state of deception, and immortality begins with the secret book of origami.

Chapter 370: Escape? It won’t be me who escapes in disgrace!
Yan Yunyu and the others agreed to the request of the Yan family leader.

The reason they did this was not because they were willing to obey the orders of the head of the Yan family, but because Si Ye and the others did not want Mu Lin to act impulsively and then die in the East China Sea Kingdom.

Yes, they believed that if Mu Lin went for revenge, he would definitely die in the East Sea Kingdom.

Don’t say there will be no danger if you don’t go there in person.

Mu Lin has a ranged curse, and so do the others.

And even if this is not a curse, other people can still attack Mu Lin from a distance through a breath of air - no matter what kind of magic is used, reaching the Grandmaster level is a qualitative change. This qualitative change will not only take effect on Mu Lin, but the Grandmaster skills of others are also very powerful.

For example, sword cultivators who have cultivated to the highest level can use a wisp of breath and directly use the sword intent to cut at a distance of thousands miles away.

The devil cultivators have even more techniques in this regard, such as Thousand Mile Soul Chasing, Soul Devouring Blood Curse, Soul Transferring Phantom, Shadow Shuttle... In short, even with numerous clones, Mu Lin's safety is still not 100%.

Although, since other people do not have attribute panels, it is extremely difficult for them to cultivate to the Grandmaster level.

However difficult it is, there is always someone who can achieve it.

The East Sea Kingdom is huge and wealthy, with abundant resources, and therefore can attract many strong players. Among them, there are many people who have reached the Grandmaster level. Therefore, Si Ye and his daughters believe that if Mu Lin goes to the East Sea Kingdom now, the probability of his death is very high.

To say it is 100% is a little bit impossible, but to say it is 80% to 90% is not an exaggeration at all - don't take the accumulation of a kingdom for nearly a thousand years lightly.

This is also the reason why the head of the Yan family is so anxious, and Si Ye and others also want to persuade Mu Lin.

Yan Yunyu: "Brother Mu, I don't want to stop you from taking revenge, but you are very talented, so we don't need to rush."

"That's right. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, so a momentary retreat is nothing."

“Brother Mu, you acted impulsively, and you fell into their trap. But if you tolerate it temporarily, they will be the ones who are anxious… They know your talent and understand how terrifying you are. As long as you tolerate it, they will be worried and afraid every day. This will make them feel better than killing them with a sword…”

There was some truth in what Si Ye and the other two said. It was not that Mu Lin had never endured before. When he was weak, he kept a low profile for a long time.

But the past is the past, and the present is the present.

After advancing to the Transmortal Realm tonight, Mu Lin's strength will undergo a drastic change. By then, he will be very difficult to kill.

This gave Mu Lin the confidence to retaliate.

——As for the strength of the East Sea Kingdom, it is possible to kill Mu Lin from a distance.

First of all, whether it is a kingdom or the foundation of an aristocratic family, it is never something that can be used easily.

Mu Lin only wanted to kill the third son of the King of Donghai, not to destroy the Palace of Donghai. The probability of him using the kingdom's resources was extremely low.

After all, the King of Donghai has many sons like him, and the death of one would not necessarily make him feel sad - whether it is a royal palace or an aristocratic family, as long as there are many heirs, family affection will inevitably fade, which is also the reason why the royal family is prone to vendettas.

In Mu Lin's opinion, after Ji Yu died, the King of Donghai was not sad at all, but felt that his face was slapped and he lost face.

If Mu Lin was weak and the King of Donghai lost face, he would not mind sending someone to kill Mu Lin.

But if they had used up their family fortune just to save face, they would not have survived until now.

It is difficult for an impulsive family to survive for long.

Based on various analyses, Mu Lin believed that the King of Donghai would not use his family's wealth.

Secondly, that family background only has a probability of killing Mu Lin, not 100% certainty. Moreover, Mu Lin plans to hide in the Tomb of the Tomb Lord when taking action. With this natural protection, plus his many defensive skills and three to five hundred substitute paper figures, he feels that his chances of survival are very high.

Finally, the King of East China Sea cannot act arbitrarily.

Since it was the King of Donghai who broke the rules, it was only natural for Mu Lin to retaliate. However, the King of Donghai faced many obstacles in taking action against Mu Lin.

The southeastern states will put pressure on us.

Of course, Mu Lin also saw through the nature of the Southeast Province and knew that the stable life had worn down their spirits and made them unwilling to take risks. Therefore, their warnings were almost useless.

But this world is not just the Southeast Province.

If Mu Lin did not demonstrate his strength, then it would be fine, and other forces would not stand up for him.

But if he really hurt the King of Donghai, demonstrated his own value, his extraordinary value, and had the intention to help the northern nobles with all his strength, he felt that the northern nobles would never sit idly by.

"If they were to come into direct conflict with the Southeast Province, they would probably not want to... The gap in strength between me and the East Sea Kingdom is indeed huge. But if they were to send out strong men to guard the East Sea King City and not let them use some taboo methods, they would probably be willing."

Even if the northern nobles were unwilling, Mu Lin was not afraid.

In this world, there are forces that do not want to see the rise of the East Sea Kingdom, such as the Daling Royal Family.

"The King of East Sea is ambitious. I don't believe that the Daling Royal Family doesn't know about it and is unwilling to curb it. It would have been fine if they didn't have the opportunity before, but now, they don't need to take action. As long as they sit back and suppress the King of East Sea, I can slap the King of East Sea in the face. I don't believe that they are unwilling to do such a good thing."

In an instant, Mu Lin thought a lot, and then he found that as long as he made more preparations, the danger of his revenge this time would not be that great.

Of course, Mu Lin felt that the premise for the danger to be small was that he could become invincible and withstand ordinary assassinations from earthly immortal-level masters. Only by using forbidden means could he be threatened.

If there was no such value, the northern nobles and a large number of royal families would not take action, and they could not stop it - there were forbidden means and masters among the earthly immortals, whose number was extremely rare and were being watched closely. Any action would be known to others. Therefore, the northern nobles and the Daling Dynasty were able to stop it.

This is just like the nuclear weapons and aircraft carriers in the previous life, which were closely guarded by someone.

However, there are not many top-level earthly immortals, but there are many ordinary earthly immortals and those with high transcendence skills in the East China Sea Kingdom, so it is impossible for everyone to guard against them.

"The existence of a certain Eastern power has made the Lighthouse Country afraid to fight even the Slippers Army. It is being watched by the Daling royal family and many aristocratic families. I don't believe that the East China Sea Kingdom will use all its national strength to deal with me." After sighing, Mu Lin prepared to continue practicing and reach the Transcendent Realm as soon as possible.

At the same time, Mu Lin was also certain that after this revenge, as long as he was not dead, no one would dare to assassinate him again.

The saying "strike the first blow to prevent a hundred" makes sense.

In the previous life, no one took the 17th parallel drawn by a certain Eastern country seriously, but after that war, no one dared to cross the second th parallel drawn by that Eastern country.

And Mu Lin was just about to deliver this heart-wrenching punch.

……

Here, Mu Lin has already made up his mind, while Yan Yunyu, Si Ye and others are still trying their best to persuade him.

Knowing that they were worried about him and doing it for his own good, Mu Lin was not angry. He just said quietly, "One step back, the world will be clear? No, one step back will only make the enemy more aggressive. If we don't let the King of the East Sea know that there is a price to pay for provoking me, do you think they will stop the assassination?"

"It doesn't matter if the assassination fails. If it were me, I would keep on assassinating until the enemy is completely wiped out and killed."

"Instead of waiting to be assassinated, I might as well fight back."

"..."

These words made Yan Yunyu silent for a while, but the head of the Yan family did not agree with Mu Lin's opinion.

"We will warn the King of the East Sea..."

Before he could finish his words, Mu Lin shook his head and said indifferently, "What if he ignores the warning and continues the assassination? Do you dare to do it directly?"

"Forehead……"

This made the head of the Yan family silent again. After a long while, he finally said, "We will do our best to protect you."

"Haha, there's a saying that a thief can steal for a thousand days, but there's no such thing as a thief on guard against a thousand days. You can't protect me."

This time, Yan Yunlong...did not refute.

If they were ordinary southeastern nobles, they would not be able to do it at this time, and would definitely try their best to deceive Mu Lin, making him all kinds of promises, temporarily calming Mu Lin's heart and preventing Mu Lin from joining the northern nobles during this period.

As long as they can get through this period, even if Mu Lin dies again, their losses will be much smaller.

But after all, the Yan family has invested a lot in Mulin, and they will also benefit a lot from Mulin's growth.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Yan Yunlong gritted his teeth and gave Mu Lin a suggestion that other southern nobles would never make.

"Mulin, you are right. We don't have the courage to tear our faces against the King of East Sea, and we really can't protect you. But we can't. The northern nobles are not afraid. They are brave and really dare to attack the King of East Sea and take the opportunity to extort resources. Moreover, the Northern Wasteland is extremely far away from the Kingdom of East Sea. It is a weak area for them, and they can't catch you."

"You can go to the north to develop."

"If you feel that the Northern Wasteland is desolate, you can also go to Central Continent and seek refuge with the Great Spiritual Royal Family."

The suggestions Yan Yunlong made this time were sincere and really made some sense.

However, the premise of all this is that Yan Yunlong feels that Mu Lin is no match for the East Sea Kingdom and would only die if he went there. Therefore, he suggested that Mu Lin "escape" to the Northern Wilderness or to Central Continent.

Yes, he suggested that Mu Lin escape.

From the perspective of universal reason, there is actually nothing wrong with this proposal.

No matter how you look at it, the weak Mu Lin and the powerful East Sea Kingdom are not opponents of the same level.

However, others don’t think so, but Mu Lin is full of confidence.

'I will go to Middle-earth and the North, but I will never flee in disgrace.'

Thinking of this, Mu Lin did not tell Yan Yunlong his true thoughts.

There is no need. No matter how much you say, it is better to do it.

"I will consider your opinion."

Having said that, Mu Lin asked Yan Yunyu to see the guest off.

After he left, Mu Lin looked at the worried women in the room and smiled. He said quietly, "Don't worry. I cherish my life much more than you think. From my various magic skills, you should know that I value my life very much."

"So, don't worry that I will act impulsively. I won't do anything that I'm not sure of."

"Unfortunately, this time, I am very confident that I can inflict pain on the King of the East Sea and escape unscathed."

……

Because the last sentence was hidden and not said, Mu Lin's words temporarily calmed the worried hearts of the girls.

At the same time, as time passed, not only did Mu Lin learn that the mastermind behind the assassination was the third son of the King of East China Sea, but the others also learned the real culprit behind the assassination of Mu Lin.

This also caused a lot of discussions to resound throughout Yuzhou City.
