Chapter 379 The Enraged King of the East Sea and the Regretful Xun Family Monks

"If I attack Mu Lin, will he retaliate against me? Will it cause huge losses to the family/sect?"

The moment this question came to mind, the elders of Shuiyue Sect, Wei Family, and Jinshen Sect got the answer.

"Yes!"

"If I take action, Mu Lin will definitely dare to retaliate... He is not afraid of the King of Donghai who controls a country, so we are just aristocratic families and slightly larger sects, so he will naturally not take us seriously."

The next moment after realizing this, they also thought about whether they would suffer losses if Mu Lin took action.

The answer to this question was also quickly estimated by them.

"There will be losses, huge losses... We can't shrink all our clansmen into the family."

One thing to understand is that the aristocratic families are very powerful, but because of this, they have a large number of clan slaves, and these people all consume resources.

Minerals, spiritual fields, shops... In order to have enough expenses for the family, the industries of the major aristocratic families are very large and wide.

And all these places need someone to look after them.

Temporarily closed? Haha, not to mention where the resources of the clan members will come from after the closure, there is only one thing, that is, they dare not close down - other families will not just watch you do it. If you dare to close down today, tomorrow, your business will be taken away by others.

Therefore, in ancient times, closing the mountain gate was never just a matter of words, but it was necessary to bleed and cut flesh, and throw away more than 90% of the rights and interests.

But if the family is not closed and continues to disperse, few people can resist Mu Lin's revenge.

What makes them even more upset is that because they were the first to bully the weak, Mu Lin's revenge, no matter how cruel he is, people from other places will not pity them, but will only say that they deserve it, and then watch the fun with gloating on the side.

If there is a chance, they don't even mind taking action themselves and adding insult to injury.

Such a heavy loss is not what they want.

Therefore, the people of the Wei family, the Golden God Sect, and the Shuiyue Sect are all a little bit in trouble at this time.

Some of them don't want to accept the order of the King of the East Sea and take action against Mu Lin.

"Mu Lin is too cruel and reckless. We will suffer too much if we deal with him."

"Our clan members died tragically and our reputation was damaged. More importantly, we didn't provoke Mu Lin. Killing him will not benefit us at all... We can't do business at a loss."

"I have seven sons, nine daughters, and countless descendants... Isn't it better to enjoy my life? Why should I get involved in this matter... If I don't do it well, my family will be wiped out."

Because Mu Lin had no direct conflict with them, it would be a hundred harms and no benefits to act rashly against Mu Lin. Therefore, the people of Shuiyue Sect and Jinshen Sect didn't want to move.

No, it's not a hundred harms and no benefits. Before Mu Lin exposed his cruel methods, whether it was Jinshen Sect, Shuiyue Sect, or Wei Family, they all felt that they would not be in danger if they dealt with Mu Lin.

Moreover, although they didn't have direct benefits, they could make friends with the King of Donghai.

'Just dealing with an insignificant little person, you can get the favor of the King of Donghai, it's worth it! ’

Considering this, they came here. That’s why the elders of the Golden God Sect said that they could deal with Mu Lin.

But Mu Lin’s action of exterminating the family was like a bucket of cold water poured directly on their heads, making them understand that dealing with Mu Lin would not be without any cost.

If you dare to provoke him, you must be prepared to be exterminated.

It can only be said that people are very mean. They will not talk to you in a friendly manner unless they feel the threat personally.

But once you overturn the table and have the ability to hurt them, they become reasonable again.

At this moment, the people of the Golden God Sect, Shuiyue Sect, and Wei Family wanted to reason with Mu Lin and tell him that they would not take action.

However, when you are in the rivers and lakes, you cannot help yourself.

Sometimes, you can’t take action if you want to.

…

When the news of Mu Lin's extermination came, the elders of the Golden God Sect who were watching were full of thoughts. The several Transcendent Monastics who had dealt with Mu Lin were pale, extremely sad, and... full of regret.

Some of them regretted getting involved in this matter.

However, in this huge room, besides them, there was also the King of the East Sea.

Compared with the others, the King of the East Sea did not have too much sadness. He was more furious.

He was furious at being humiliated.

Born as a prince, he rose to power through some means, and his temperament was extremely arrogant.

Even this turbulent era did not scare him. Instead, he thought the same as Mu Lin, thinking that this was an opportunity for him to ascend to the throne and become the Lord of the Nine Provinces.

With such ambitions and ruling a country, the King of the East Sea always felt that he was superior and despised everyone else.

But now, he, who was superior, was slapped in the face.

Being slapped hard in the face by a nobody like Mu Lin.

Faced with such a thing, how could he not be furious.

"Good! Good! Good! You are so lawless, without a king or father, a traitor, you did a good job!"

After "praising" Mu Lin, the King of the East Sea turned his fierce eyes to the Wei Family, Shuiyue Sect, Jinshen Sect and... Xun's counselor.

At the same time, a cold voice also sounded in the room.

"The king cannot be insulted!"

"Before the sun rises tomorrow, I want you to find all of Mu Lin's clones in Tianhai City and arrest or kill them all."

It was not an inquiry, but an overbearing order.

Hearing such an order, the elders of Shuiyue Sect and Jinshenmen were bitter.

The latter hesitated for a moment, but still advised the King of Donghai: "Your Majesty, the Five Directions God-asking Technique needs some time to set up..."

This was to delay, but unfortunately, he was interrupted by the King of Donghai before he finished speaking.

"That's your business. I want to get rid of Mu Lin in Tianhai City before the sun rises tomorrow... Don't let me say it for the third time."

Feeling the angry and dangerous eyes of the King of Donghai, thinking that the King of Donghai is powerful after all and Mu Lin is weak, in the end, the elders of Jinshenmen and Shuiyue Sect nodded in agreement.

Compared with the two of them, the Wei family agreed faster.

Even, they felt that this action was indeed risky, but it was also an opportunity.

'The unscrupulous kid made the king angry, but at the same time, as long as we make great efforts in the process of solving him, our Wei family will definitely be regarded as a confidant by the king. This is a great opportunity. ’

With this idea in mind, the Wei family agreed quickly.

“Please rest assured, my lord. If the master humiliates the minister, he will die. No matter what, I will catch Mu Lin and make him kneel down to apologize to the lord!”

“Well, go down.”

In this way, after the trap plan failed, the second capture operation of the King of Donghai against Mu Lin also began.

However, the elders of the Golden God Sect and the Shuiyue Sect, who had not yet left the King of Donghai’s mansion and were ready to implement the plan, were in a worse mood.

Another servant ran in from outside.

After being held and questioned, they knew with a chill in their hearts that after the first extermination operation, Mu Lin did not stop, but continued to attack those who dared to participate in this operation.

Because the power of other Transcendental cultivators was extremely weak, most of them were killed in the first extermination operation.

In this operation, those who were killed by Mu Lin were mainly the people of the Xun family.

Yes, the clansmen of the Xun family counselor.

In addition to Tianjiao, dozens of managers, housekeepers, and young men of the Xun family were killed in the attack.

When the Xun family counselor returned to his family, the number of Xun family monks who died had reached more than a hundred.

"Asshole, you did a good thing!"

So many clansmen, all elite clansmen, died tragically because of Mu Lin's attack. This was also a serious loss for the Xun family.

Faced with this situation, the Xun family members naturally hated Mu Lin.

But in addition to this, everyone was full of dissatisfaction and resentment towards Xun Zhi, the source of their family's misfortune.

"Wuwuwu, give me back my son's life!"

"If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you meddling in other people's business, how could the head of my family die..."

"Wuwuwu, Yu'er, my Yu'er..."

The clansmen's curses and their resentful eyes made Xun Zhi a little dazed.

Obviously, he didn't expect that dealing with Mu Lin for the King of Donghai would cause his family to suffer such heavy losses.

To be honest, Xun Zhi regretted it at this time. If he knew the consequences, he would never stand up.

But it must be said that Xun Zhi still has some ability to stay by the King of Donghai's side - the disaster in front of him was because he didn't expect Mu Lin to be so powerful and act so cruelly.

But even so, he was not defeated or decadent, but quickly said: "I was wrong this time. I didn't expect Mu Lin to be so strong, but blaming me is useless. What we have to do is to find a way to survive this disaster."

"What else to survive? The younger generation was almost killed. Our Xun family is almost finished. Even if it wasn't killed by Mu Lin, the bastard, we can't survive the other families' kicking us when we are down..."

"That's right, our family can't die anymore. Otherwise, let's close the mountain gate and don't get involved in this matter."

There are still children in the family. They are scared of being beaten and some dare not fight with Mu Lin.

However, before they finished their proposal, they were interrupted by Xun Zhi.

"If we continue to fight Mu Lin, we will not be finished. Once we surrender, we will be really finished... Now we are working for the prince, which is why we have such a miserable end. Even if he spends a lot of money to buy horse bones, the prince will not sit idly by and watch us completely fall. Otherwise, if we fall, other families will be sad and will never dare to work for the King of Donghai again."

"But once we surrender, Mu Lin may not attack us, but the Xun family will not be able to bear the prince's anger. At that time, we will be really finished."

At this point, Xun Zhi said firmly He said firmly: "As long as Mu Lin is killed, everything will get better."

His words made some sense, but the others didn't listen at all:

"But how can we kill him? He's too scary."

"No, he's not scary. With the background of the royal palace, we will kill him. As long as we hold on for this period of time, it will be fine."

"If we can't hold on, and Mu Lin continues to attack, none of our Xun family members below the Transcendent level will survive... No, it's hard for Transcendent cultivators to survive."

The panicked words made Xun Zhi frown tightly.

At the same time, he still had a lot of puzzles: "What's going on with our Xun family? I admit that Mu Lin is very talented, but he is just entering the Transcendent level now, and he is probably just a clone this time, not his real body. As such, his strength is obviously extremely limited. How did he find more than a hundred elite members of our Xun family and kill them all in such a short time?"

...

Mu Lin, how did he kill so many people in such a short time?

This question was not only doubted by Xun Zhi, but also by the monks of Jinshenmen, Wei family, and Shuiyuezong, and they tried their best to investigate.

——In the Donghai Palace, Shuiyuezong, Jinshenmen, and Wei family, although they felt that Mu Lin was not as good as the King of Donghai, he would eventually be killed by the King of Donghai, which made them take on the task of the King of Donghai.

But at that time, it was only the elders who made the decision. After returning to the family and the sect, they still needed to discuss.

Well, they would open the meeting, and it was also related to the fact that Mu Lin could cause them heavy losses. Otherwise, for a small person, they would only think that attacking is attacking, what can you do to me.

Unfortunately, Mu Lin is not weak, and killing him will be met with cruel backlash and revenge.

Therefore, the monks of Shuiyuezong and Jinshenmen, while discussing whether to help the King of Donghai, sent people to investigate Mu Lin's movements and means of killing.

The first is to estimate - to estimate whether the friendship of the King of the East Sea is worth their all-out efforts.

The second is for defense - in the East Sea Kingdom, the majority of people think that the King of the East Sea is stronger, and therefore, they tend to help the King of the East Sea.

In this case, it is necessary to find out Mu Lin's methods in advance.

This will allow them to prepare in advance, so that Mu Lin's revenge will be more easily resolved by them.

However, after a thorough investigation, they were horrified to find that something was wrong.

The unscrupulous Mu Lin caused much more damage than they expected.

The Xun family's cultivators, let alone the younger generation, were almost killed by Mu Lin.

"What happened? How did he kill so many people in such a short time?"
