Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Lin Mu was startled when he saw the message. Nothing unusual?!

He had just been told that his destiny, fate, history, and soul talisman were all gone, and he was on his deathbed. Now he's saying there's nothing wrong... He's starting to wonder if he sent the wrong message!
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Lin Mu's mind: Perhaps this is the scheme of the one who tied the bell!
"This kind of soft knife is the most helpless against," Lin Mu sighed softly.

At this moment, he knew that Yu Jin's life was in the hands of the other party!
"Exchange for Diao Chan...exchange for peacetime? Or perhaps a pledge of allegiance?" Lin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, various possibilities constantly surfacing in his mind.

"It seems you're not entirely confident about Dong Zhuo's usurpation of the Han throne..." Lin Mu had figured it out by now... The one who tied the knot must be the missing Li Ru!

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be in the place where Dong Zhuo rose to power right now!" Lin Mu looked up at the northwest sky, his voice carrying a hint of coldness that echoed far and wide.

The wind swept across the wilderness, swirling up a few withered yellow leaves. Strange blue auras surged forth, and the surroundings were eerily quiet. There was no response from the wilderness, only the long cries of birds returning home piercing the sky in the distance.

"If Dong Zhuo dies, will you still insist?" Lin Mu asked slowly.

He had a premonition that Li Ru spared Yu Jin's life for the sake of his own future, perhaps for the sake of the Dong family, or perhaps for his own sake...

Lin Mu slowly put the pages of the Qiankun Mother-Child Book away, then instructed Xiao Xuankun, "Let's go to Chang'an."

"It's alright?!" Little Xuankun could sense that Lin Mu's attitude and mood had changed; he seemed relieved now.

"Everything's alright for now..."

After saying that, the little Xuankun flashed and took Lin Mu away from Mei County.

Lin Mu did not personally intervene in the already initiated battle of Mei County, but immediately returned to Chang'an, which clearly had his own purpose.

Along the way, the little Xuan Kun sped along at breakneck speed. However, Lin Mu, who had temporarily put aside his worries, discovered that the little Xuan Kun was actually opening its huge mouth and frantically devouring the purple aura that filled the sky!
That's right, Little Xuankun, it's actually consuming purple energy!!
She must have eaten while traveling, but he just didn't notice.

"Can you eat the purple aura that comes from the east?" Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.

"Ah...of course I can eat it, but I can't force myself to eat it; there has to be a cause and effect. Your matter is the cause and effect, so I'm fine after eating it, hehe..." Little Xuankun laughed contentedly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu suddenly realized... In fact, he and Xiao Xuankun were now essentially involved in the plot of killing Dong Zhuo, as participants, and of course, also as challengers!
In a sense, the two of them were actually calamities bestowed upon Dong Zhuo by Heaven, much like the beast tide attacking the city.

"Then fly slower and eat more." Dong Zhuo hasn't even reached Chang'an yet, there's still plenty of time.

"No, if I slow down, the heavens and earth will reject me. I have to be fast, or I won't get a single bite," Little Xuankun said meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu raised an eyebrow, realizing that there were such restrictions involved.

……

Meanwhile, in the thatched hut of the mysterious place, Li Ru sensed that there was no movement coming from the west, and realized that the other party also understood his meaning.

"It seems that Guo Fengxiao and the others did not personally participate in the game, but rather participated from a distance like I did," Li Ru said quietly.

If Guo Jia, Xun You, and others had personally participated in the events at Mei County, the situation of Yu Jin being sacrificed would never have occurred.

"Regardless, we have won the first encounter."

"Next, we'll see the carnage that awaits the rats hiding in the shadows as they leap out..." Li Ru said, a ruthless glint in his eyes and a ferocious expression on his face.

……

In Mei County, just as Yue Jin and Yu Jin had passed the area of ​​Dong Zhuo's resurrection tower, they saw Yu Jin, who was on his deathbed, suddenly jump up, which startled the rough man Yue Jin.

I almost thought Yu Jin had come back to life...

"Wenze?" Yue Jin exclaimed in surprise, his face still bearing a trace of sorrow.

"What happened?!" Yu Jin was also dumbfounded at this moment.

"What? What happened? You don't know what happened?" Yue Jin was stunned by Yu Jin's words... Did Yu Jin not know what he had done to capture Diao Chan?!
"What was your last memory before you fell into a coma?" Le Jin asked immediately. At the same time, he took out the pages of the Qiankun Mother Book to send a message to his lord, Lin Mu.

"Before I lost consciousness, I remember stepping into a courtyard with a strange fragrance, and then I don't know what happened!" Yu Jin said with a deep frown.

"So how are you feeling now?" Le Jin asked, putting aside his doubts for the time being, and checked on Yu Jin's physical condition.

"It's alright... My cultivation, martial prowess, divine domain, and primordial spirit are all still intact, and I can activate them at any time!" Yu Jin said immediately after sensing for a moment.

"Hiss!" Yue Jin gasped upon hearing Yu Jin's words. Without waiting for Yu Jin's reaction, he swung his weapon sharply, aiming for Yu Jin's neck.

"Clang!~~~" Yu Jin raised his spear and subconsciously blocked Le Jin's attack.

"Bang!~~" Both of them were thrown dozens of feet away by the force of the recoil.

"Wenqian, what are you doing?" Yu Jin asked, shaking his hand and looking puzzled.

"Strange, I just used eighty percent of my power to verify that your strength hasn't decreased... but... but..." Le Jin wanted to say that since your destiny, fate, and soul talisman are gone, your strength should have plummeted... but that's not the case... He was truly dumbfounded...

Could it be... a final burst of energy before death?
"It's alright, you really didn't notice anything unusual about yourself?" Le Jin asked in a low voice.

"No... Did something happen to me?" Yu Jin's intelligence hadn't been lost, and he noticed the abnormality in Yue Jin's tone.

"Wait a minute..." Yue Jin sent the information about Yu Jin to his lord, Lin Mu.

Soon, Lord Lin Mu replied to him...

"Never mind everything else for now, let's go find Xuan Gao." After reading Lord Lin Mu's reply, Le Jin put away the pages of the Qiankun alphabet book.

Everything proceeded as planned... Could it be that our lord knew what had happened? Was Yu Jin's sudden change due to our lord seeking help from the spirit of Mount Tai to avert disaster?!
The two took a detour and soon caught up with Zang Ba.

Zang Ba led the way, with Diao Chan following behind, the two warhorses speeding along the pre-prepared retreat route.

Zang Ba was also startled to see that Yu Jin seemed to be unharmed.

Just now, he thought he would never see his good brother Yu Jin again, and the tough guy even shed a few tears because of it...

When Diao Chan saw Yu Jin, her pupils, hidden beneath her thin veil, contracted slightly.

This person who was destined to die actually survived!!
Even if one's destiny is gone, there might be ways to make up for it; even if one's fate is gone, there might be ways to reshape it; even if one's soul talisman is gone, it can be restored; even if one's luck is gone, it can be accumulated again... But if all of these are gone at once, one should die instantly... Yet, for some reason, Yu Jin is still on his deathbed, and even tipping off others... Originally, she planned to leave the City Lord's Mansion after Yu Jin broke the formation and disappear from the mortal world completely... She never expected Yu Jin to be so resilient!!

Now, he appears before her completely unharmed; this can't be explained simply by being tough...

"Hmph! So the cage has been manipulated all along..." Diao Chan was a smart woman and immediately realized the key point.

"If I run away, will you kill me?" Suddenly, Diao Chan's calm voice broke through their conversation.

Upon hearing this, all three looked at the exquisitely beautiful goddess.

"Yes!" Without any hesitation, the three answered Diao Chan in unison.

That's right, they weren't lying. If something unexpected happened and the situation became urgent, they wouldn't allow anyone else to have Diao Chan, even if it meant ruining her!

This was a decision proposed by strategist Guo Jia and approved by lord Lin Mu.

"The most heartless path is the road..." Diao Chan sighed softly, a sense of sorrow for life spreading out.

We escaped the dragon's den, only to enter the tiger's lair; we escaped the tiger's lair, only to enter the wolf's den... What a pity!
The three were not affected by Diao Chan's aura and continued on their planned route.

After spending quite some time, the three finally arrived at a secluded riverbank.

Boats were already waiting on the shore. The four of them quickly boarded the boats and then slowly sailed out of the city along the river.

This river is a small tributary that flows through Mei County from the main river outside, and it is surrounded by warships of all kinds and stages.

However, the boats they boarded encountered no inspection and sailed directly into the heavily guarded section of the river. After passing through smoothly, they quickly left the city...

However, this stretch of road through Mei County was actually the safest for them; once they reached the outside world, they would face real challenges!

Mei County was essentially surrounded by various armies, and the waterways were heavily guarded. Even a mere three-meter-wide channel was being guarded by ten thousand troops from Dong Zhuo's side…

The four of them were traveling on a low-level warship, which moved at great speed, cutting through the river under the dark night sky and heading into the distance.

Just then, a muffled sound rang out.

"The arrows are coming!!" Yue Jin whispered. (End of Chapter)
