Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Chapter 2802 The shortcomings and strategies of Zhuzi

The world was silent, save for the low murmur of the wind and sand!

At that moment, all the shouts of battle, the beating of drums, and the sound of horns at Hulao Pass disappeared.

Countless soldiers stared in disbelief at the ruins of the Hulao Pass city wall, where sand and dust raged.

The warlords, including Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, were all dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.

They never expected Lin Mu to possess such combat power!
Was Lin Mu's disheveled appearance earlier an act? Or was this outburst only very brief?
Why didn't Lin Mu unleash his power sooner? Or perhaps he could have waited until Lu Bu was locked in a fierce battle with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, and then eliminated all four of them, maximizing his gains!
How strange...

Besides the feudal lords being shocked, the people of the entire land were also shocked.

Although the [Southern Dipper Seven Kills Martial Arts Arena] was closed, the scene of Lin Mu smashing a large section of the magnificent city wall of Hulao Pass was still broadcast live.

The screen only closed after it showed the streets inside Hulao Pass.

In short, Lin Muzhi's outburst has been witnessed by the entire world!
At this moment, countless people were shocked by Lin Mu's attack, and countless people re-examined Lin Mu!
Lin Mu's ability to surpass the all-powerful Dong Zhuo and rise to the top of the list of warlords was not due to luck; his strength was unfathomable!
On that mountain peak in Jingzhou, even the serene and composed Mr. Shui Jing was dumbfounded after witnessing Lin Mu's invincible attack.

"The same divine mandate as that of Liu Hong, the former emperor of the Han Dynasty!!" Shui Jing murmured.

Pang Tong and the others nodded silently upon hearing this.

When the Yellow Turban Rebellion of the Taiping Dao reached the outskirts of Luoyang, intending to overthrow the Han Dynasty, the late Emperor Liu Hong fought against them. The power he unleashed at that time came from the art of destiny!

“This man’s imperial destiny is unfathomable, but this performance has already proven that his imperial destiny is definitely not low… Shi Yuan, perhaps you can consider assisting Lin Mu!” Mr. Shui Jing rarely recommended Pang Tong.

Upon hearing this, Pang Tong raised an eyebrow slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing...

Mr. Shui Jing didn't say anything more, he just smiled slightly.

In fact, at the moment Lin Mu unleashed his power, he sensed a peculiar aura... It was the pinnacle of human heritage, the destiny of a human king!
But why did the purple aura that Lin Mu encountered on his pilgrimage route only extend for three hundred miles?
What a contradiction...

"The Human King... The Human King... No wonder my previous divination techniques only scratched the surface... Perhaps, I should make an appearance and offer this newly born Human King a token of my favor?" Mr. Shui Jing pondered, gazing at the spot where the image had disappeared.

At this moment, the image of the cloth bag that had just been summoned flashed through his mind...

"Truly extraordinary, worthy of being the man who led us to victory in that War of the Gods!" The other elders sighed inwardly.

Not only on this mountain peak, but in many mysterious places, many extraordinary people have marveled at Lin Mu's attack.

Hulao Pass, one of the most formidable passes in the world, has withstood the test of time for thousands of years. Its defenses are so strong that even a powerful general would find it difficult to breach. Countless arrays of runes and inscriptions have been laid out on the city walls... Even after Dong Zhuo's forces occupied the city, they could not figure them out at all.

According to ancient records, this pass withstood many attacks from terrifying powerful beings in ancient times, yet it still stood firm.

However, right here in this world, it was shattered by Lin Mu, a second-rank general of the Great Han Dynasty!
To be honest, even though Lin Mu topped the list of the Lords of Heaven and Earth, many people still looked down on him, thought he was just a flash in the pan, or even that he was just a stepping stone for some people and a mere backdrop for the times... But today's attack shattered those prejudices!
……

Hangu Pass.

Yang Biao, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song, and others, who had just entered Hangu Pass with the main force after a long journey, also witnessed the scene taking place at the Hulao Pass martial arts arena.

At this moment, they all fell silent...

It turns out that the one who could truly save the Han Dynasty was not the warlords of Guandong, but the extraordinary Lin Mu who had always been overlooked by them!

In that single strike, perhaps even the mightiest warrior in the world, Lü Bu, met his end!
The true number one warrior in the world is not Lü Bu, but Lin Mu!!
At this moment, a sense of regret arose in their hearts...

"Hurry up!! Stop dawdling, or I'll chop you all up if you don't get to Chang'an by the deadline!!!" A brutal voice rang out.

Surrounding Yang Biao, Lu Zhi, and their entourage was a densely packed army of ordinary civilians, stretching for hundreds of miles... Countless people, with their families and valuables on their backs, were being driven by the Xiliang cavalry...

The retainers and retainers of powerful clans such as the Yang family were all wiped out by Dong Zhuo, either forcibly disbanded or directly incorporated into Dong Zhuo's camp. In short, this greatly weakened the military strength of the major clans.

This practice was strongly opposed by the major clans, as it was essentially putting their heads on Dong Zhuo's waist. If Dong Zhuo was unhappy, he could easily kill their entire clan with a single sword stroke.

However, since the massacre of the Yuan family, the major clans have ceased their strong resistance... otherwise, they might have been the next ones to be wiped out...

However, Dong Zhuo did not go too far. He did not eliminate all his retainers and servants, but left some of them to protect themselves.

Moreover, Dong Zhuo treated the large clans and common people who cooperated with the relocation quite leniently, and did not arbitrarily plunder their property.

However, it cannot be ruled out that a small mistake during the migration could lead to the extermination of an entire clan... That would be called making an example of someone!
At this moment, many people started to discuss it, because they had already witnessed Lin Mu's extraordinary bravery.

It was not Lin Mu who killed Dong Zhuo!
"What's all this noise about? Stop talking and get on your way!" At this moment, the tyrannical Xiliang general, enraged, beheaded the closest people who were talking and roared.

This act of making an example of someone did indeed quiet everyone down... However, the power that was secretly gathering was growing stronger and stronger...

Seeing this, Yang Biao, Lu Zhi, and the others did not stand up to seek justice for the dead, but instead glanced coldly at the Xiliang army...

The main force continued its journey, only resting for a short time inside Hangu Pass before setting off again.

……

In Gongsun Zan's camp, a white light flashed, and Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei suddenly appeared after a flash of white light.

At that moment, they were unaware of Lin Mu's attack, because they were still in the process of teleporting when it occurred.

"Brother, why were we teleported away? What about the outcome of the martial arts battle?" Zhang Fei asked anxiously.

Although they sensed a terrifying aura gathering, it was only for a fleeting moment, and they had no idea it was Lin Mu.

But Liu Bei, who was being targeted by Lin Mu, felt differently.

"Boom!!!" Just then, a terrifying earthquake shook outwards, and the entire camp trembled violently. "What happened?!" The three of them turned around at the same time and looked towards Hulao Pass, exclaiming in shock.

"Lin Mu! It's Lin Mu!" Liu Bei murmured.

The three of them immediately stepped out of the tent and saw a terrifying scene: a large section of the Hulao Pass city wall had collapsed.

It should be understood that even if all the soldiers of the Kwantung Army and all the generals exerted their power together, it would be impossible to create such a terrifying scene.

At that moment, all three of them felt a chill rising up their backs.

"Buzz!!!" In the next moment, a great power suddenly descended, enveloping the three of them.

The three, still terrified by the upheaval at Hulao Pass, did not immediately heed the gift from Heaven, nor did they pay attention to the voice of Heaven that rang in their ears.

At this moment, all they could see was Lin Mu, who was floating in mid-air!

Lin Mu's figure slowly emerged from the dust and smoke, his robes fluttering and his eyes blazing.

"It's a pity I couldn't kill Lü Bu!" Lin Mu sighed inwardly.

He had actually locked onto Lü Bu and launched an attack with all his might, but still failed to achieve his goal.

He knew that killing Lü Bu would have serious consequences, but given the chance, he would still kill him, just like Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.

"That Lu Bu was very confident when he said he would kill Zhang Fei, but he failed. Instead, he was a master at escaping," Lin Mu murmured softly.

He did not pursue the remaining enemy forces, nor did he attack Hulao Pass. He simply surveyed the surroundings coldly, as if announcing the arrival of a new era!
A glorious era has begun for the Great Wilderness Territory!
That blow not only shook Dong Zhuo's foundation, but also the hopes and aspirations of the entire Guandong Coalition and countless people throughout China...

He knew that countless forces would begin to reassess his existence, and speculation about why he was hiding his strength and lying low was spreading rapidly.

Regardless of the circumstances, Lin Mu has truly reached the pinnacle of China's stage!

After pondering for a while, Lin Mu had a sudden thought, and the terrifying power that had been bestowed upon him vanished abruptly. Then, he pretended to fall from the sky in a disheveled state...

The next moment, Huang Zhong suddenly appeared and caught the falling Lin Mu. Then the four of them quickly left the battlefield.

The entire battlefield remains eerily quiet...

After the [Southern Dipper Seven Kill Martial Arts Arena] disappeared, the devastated battlefield rapidly transformed, and then, the battlefield, filled with countless ravines, returned to its original state... as if everything before had been an illusion...

The "Southern Dipper Seven Kills Martial Arts Arena" was set up by Lu Bu, so it's perfectly normal for him to leave at will.

After Lü Bu left, the [Southern Dipper Seven Kill Arena] disappeared, and everything returned to normal; teleportation items were still usable. Liu Bei used this brief moment to escape.

After Lin Mu disappeared, the entire battlefield erupted in chaos.

Countless soldiers of the Kwantung Army began to cheer, and the thunderous drumbeats resounded once again, boosting morale to an unprecedented level.

Meanwhile, Hulao Pass remained quiet.

The place Lü Bu fled was not where Dong Zhuo was. He didn't know what happened, but he retreated to the side, which allowed Dong Zhuo and his men to escape.

If they had been hit by Lin Mu's attack, they would have paid a heavy price.

However, the damage caused by that terrifying attack had already reached the main gate of Hulao Pass.

Many buildings collapsed, hitting many of Dong Zhuo's soldiers.

Dong Zhuo and his men did not see this from the city walls. They probably fled for their lives when Lin Mu launched his attack, just like Liu Bei.

"Knock knock knock!~~~"

"Waaaaah!~~~~"

The drums of the Kwantung Army and the long, solemn bugle calls rang out.

At this moment, the morale of the Kwantung Allied Forces soared, and Lin Mu had blasted a large breach in Hulao Pass. It was time to launch a decisive battle!
However, if you listen carefully, you'll find that the sounds of drums and horns are not heard in all the camps...

In the temporary meeting place of the feudal lords, Cao Cao, after recovering from his shock, immediately shouted: "Alliance Leader, our army has won a great victory over Lü Bu, and our morale is high. Please order the entire army to attack and take Hulao Pass in one fell swoop, capturing the traitor Dong Zhuo!!"

Although Cao Cao was distracted, he did not forget his main task at the moment.

However, Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the first seat, did not look at Cao Cao at this moment, but stared intently ahead.

"Benchu, if we don't pursue Dong Zhuo now, when will we?!" Cao Cao, thinking Yuan Shao was still in a daze, shouted angrily.

However, Yuan Shao remained unmoved at this moment.

"In the beginning, that traitor Dong Zhuo arbitrarily deposed the emperor and killed the empress, and then, disregarding opposition, abducted the emperor, causing turmoil throughout the land and leaving everyone bewildered. At this critical moment for the survival of the nation, how could we remain inactive? Dong Zhuo, intimidated by the power of the eighteen warlords, moved the capital westward to avoid their sharp edge. In the Battle of Hulao Pass, Lü Bu was defeated, and his soldiers lost their will to fight. Our army's morale is high. If we fight now, we can secure the world. How can we hesitate and miss this opportunity?!" Cao Cao said indignantly.

He now knew Yuan Shao's choice... but he was still unwilling to accept it...

After speaking, an excited Cao Cao looked at the other warlords...

He noticed that the other feudal lords all had cryptic expressions and none of them immediately stood up to support him...

At this moment, Cao Cao's heart was cold!

"This brat is not worth discussing anything with!" (End of Chapter)
