Chapter 420 The Situation is Critical

Li Mu's concern was not ostentatious.

They were making an enemy of the Bright Wheel Sect, who also knew Shen Xingyue's identity.

If the Ming Lun Sect had already made a move against the Southern Ocean, Shen Xing Yue returning alone would become dangerous, and who could guarantee that the Ming Lun Sect wouldn't make a move against her?

Shen Xingyue also understood this, however, she firmly believed that the Lin family would not turn their backs on the Shen family, at the very least, it was not time to turn their backs.

She said to Li Mu, ''I'm the contemporary head of the Shen Family, they won't easily offend me if they want to draw the Shen Family in.

Unless they want to make an enemy of the Shen Family and intend to completely annihilate the Shen Family."

"That's the reasoning, but I'm still not sure, I'm worried..."

"Worried they'll snatch me and hold me hostage?"

"Yes, you have to admit it's possible, don't you?"

"It's a possibility, but they don't see to do it right away.

After all, they and I haven't torn each other apart, I haven't made my position official, and they wouldn't risk losing an ally by choosing to get rough right off the bat."

Li Mu and the others argued for a long time, never forming a consensus.

In the end, Little Violet took the initiative to say, ''Master, I'll accompany Miss Shen on her journey, with me guarding her, there shouldn't be any problems with safety.

Don't worry, even if I die, I'll still protect Miss Shen's safety!"

Lin Wan was a bit moved, but Li Mu was still hesitant.

Shen Xingyue said with a straight face, "Brother Mu, don't hesitate any longer, the opportunity is fleeting, one step later, there is the possibility of a change of heart on the Southern Ocean side, and it will be a thousand times harder for us to blow up that singularity."

"I understand that, it's just..."

"There's nothing just, Wood, if I don't go back, can any of you do this thing, even if I can see Shen's family, can they listen to you?"

Li Mu froze for a moment and subconsciously looked at Lin Wan.

The latter nodded slightly and said to him, "Xing Yue is right, the Shen family respects us, but will not put the survival of a clan on us, such a big event can only be stepped up by Xing Yue."

In fact, without Lin Wan's explanation, Li Mu also understood the reasoning.

Just as Shen Xingyue had said, even if their relationship with the Shen family was as close as possible, it was impossible for the other party to hand over the decision of a clan's survival to them.

It's a matter of principle, blowing up the singularity is no joke, and once you decide to do that, no one can predict the consequences, in case it's the end of the line.

Such a major event could only be decided by Shen Xingyue in front of the clan, and only she, could gather the strength of the entire clan to do something righteously.

Li Mu and the others were outsiders after all, why should they risk the extinction of their clan to accompany you in your madness if you say a few words.

That's bullshit!

Lin Wan continued, "You don't have to worry about security, with Little Zi's close protection, no one should be able to threaten her, husband, make a decision!"

Liamu finally gave his consent.

Shen Xingyue said happily, "It's not too late, let's immediately study the singularity distribution map, find the exit passage, and leave this place as soon as possible."

Several people studied the map again carefully.

Three connecting singularities were found between the Monze continent and Chesswatch Mountain.

One place was a one-way singularity, tucked away deep in the mountains, and Sensei, that was the singularity they had passed on their way here.

One is a two-way singularity, located in the territory of Zhuqi Kingdom, Zhuqi Kingdom built its royal capital there, no need to ask, it must be heavily guarded, it is difficult for ordinary people to approach.

There is another singularity that is also a two-way singularity, also located deep in the mountains and not attributed to any one country, however, the description is very unclear.

Li Mu asked Violet, "Violet, did you get a map of Chesswatch Mountain?"

"Yes!"

Little Violet offered a map, and after several people searched carefully on the map, they finally determined the location of the third singularity.

It was in the middle of nowhere, a barbaric land that could be roughly thousands of miles away from this place.

"What do you guys think?" Li Mu asked, "Is this singularity unknown, or is it because of some special reason that both countries have chosen to abandon it?"

It was a difficult question to answer, and everyone was silent.

Lin Wan said to everyone, "Let's put this issue aside for now and ask Little Violet what she has gained, perhaps through its description, we can surmise the cause."

Li Mu responded, "Good, then Zi tell us first, what news have you inquired about?"

"Master forgive me, I didn't find out much information, most of the nationals of Wind Chess Country are new demon races, not ancient demons, I have a special appearance, I don't dare to go deeper."

"It doesn't matter, on the battlefield that day, all of their soldiers were demonic bit persons, I already guessed that this was the result, this matter doesn't blame you, you continue on."

"Thank you, Master, for your grace!

Master, although I was unable to penetrate deep into the Wind Chess Kingdom, I did manage to pry out two important pieces of information.

The first piece of news, that Feng Ting really isn't an ordinary person, as well as the two guards, both of whom are also Wind Chess Country's stormy figures."

Li Mu immediately became interested and pursued, "What are their identities?"

"One is the Regent of the Wind Chess Kingdom, one is the young prince of the Wind Chess Kingdom, and Feng Ting is the unmarried Regent Consort, and they are all in power in the Wind Chess Kingdom."

Li Mu vigorously slapped his thigh and said in chagrin, "Blame me, I should have detained them at that time and missed a good opportunity for nothing."

Lin Wan snapped, "What are you holding people back for?"

"No reason, it's fun, call them pretenders!"

"Don't talk nonsense, two countries at war don't chop off envoys, they don't have any malice, they just come to test the truth, why do you make things difficult for them?"

"Then I don't care, anyway, whoever dares to do that again in the future, I will definitely take the person first and think of the idea later, whoever pretends to get whoever, I definitely won't eat that set of words anymore."

Lin Wan did not care to step on him, did not expect, his own master is not just talking, he is determined to be a true villain, specializing in cleaning up the pretentious warrior.

"You continue!" Lin Wan instructed Little Violet.

"Master, I found people from the Bright Wheel Sect at the border of the Wind Chess Country."

What?

Several people subconsciously stood up and looked at each other.

They hadn't expected that the people from the Bright Wheel Sect had arrived at Chesswatch Mountain so quickly.

Li Mu frowned and asked, "How many of them came, who led the group, and what was the purpose of coming here?"

"Master, there can be thousands of them, led by someone called the Snow Fairy, with the aim of inviting back the female master and getting rid of you in the process."

"What are they doing in Wind Chess country?"

"Master, the Bright Wheel Sect is an ally with the Zhu Chess Kingdom, they found the Zhu Chess Kingdom first, and then they intend to persuade the Wind Chess Kingdom so that the latter will help them and work together against us."

"How did you get this information?"

"I met a legation near the border and, during the night, captured one of its attendants when they were not prepared.

That person happens to be from the Bright Wheel Sect, and thus, knows these secrets."

"Where is that man now?"

"Master, it's a liability to carry him, it's already been eaten by me."

Li Mu didn't say anything, it was a small matter, no need to blame Violet.

"What can you find out about the Singularity?"

"Not a lot, but the main reason the two countries are at war is for control of the Singularity.

One of the conditions on which the Bright Wheel Sect intends to lobby the Wind Chess Kingdom is to open up that singularity controlled by the Zhu Chess Kingdom."

"Where does that singularity lead?"

"The Mengze Continent has a manned area, and the other end is under the control of the Bright Wheel Sect."

"What do you think?" Reimu asked the others.

Shen Xingyue said with some concern, ''Not too good, that person may not know all the hidden information.

Brother Mu, if we mess up, we will have two more strong opponents."

"That's right, one is the Zhu Chess Kingdom, they are allied with the Bright Wheel Sect and are themselves a divine race, so they have no reason to help us.

The other is the Wind Chess Kingdom, although they are a demon country, they will likely choose to be our enemy in the face of heavy benefits, the situation is indeed not good."

"That's not the worst of it.

Brother Mu, I'm worried that they'll use the tactic of fighting demons with demons, instigating the Wind Chess Kingdom to fight us to the death and then reap the benefits."

Lin Wan frowned and asked, "Can Wind Chess Kingdom fall for this?"

Shen Xingyue laughed bitterly, ''Xiao Wan, in front of interests, there is only the choice of worthiness or worthlessness, there is no such thing as being fooled or not.

As long as the Bright Wheel Sect gives up the hunting area, it will be hard for the Wind Chess Kingdom to refuse."

Li Mu cursed, "Damn, they are really generous at the expense of others, using the hunting area as bait is extremely tempting, it is indeed a good move."

"Yes, that's the world of the Ancient Demons there, and the Bright Wheel Sect has always had the heart to do so, and will likely use this opportunity to compel the Wind Chess Nation to fight against us.

Waiting for both sides to fight until they are both defeated, they will then take advantage of the situation and send out troops to eliminate the two hidden dangers in one fell swoop... I think this is the fundamental purpose of their mission to the Wind Chess Kingdom!"

Lin Wan still questioned, "Xing Yue, we can all see the conspiracy, the Wind Chess Kingdom may not be unable to see it, I don't believe that they don't have a high ranking person who would willingly do the grafting for others."

"What can you do if you see it, maybe people are just dying to make it work!"

"What do you mean, do you mean that they will be willingly used as a gun?"

"Yes, whoever controls the Singularity will have the advantage, and for Wind Chess Nation, it's a quagmire.

If you don't do anything, sooner or later, you'll be trapped by the Zhu Qi Kingdom."

Everyone heard and understood that the reason why the Wind Chess Kingdom wanted to open up a battlefield with the Zhu Chess Kingdom was to break the blockade, not wanting to be a country in a trap.

Otherwise, one side can source resources and receive assistance.

The other side always guards an acre of land, and over time, the two sides' national strengths will naturally be divided into high and low levels.

There is no need to argue, certainly the former high, the latter low, high and low both points, victory and defeat has been divided, the latter destined to escape the end of the destruction of the country.

If at this time, the latter is suddenly given a chance to crack the predicament, what do you think he will choose?

Even if he guessed it was a conspiracy, even if he knew it was a big pit, he would choose to jump in.

Jump and gain a chance of survival, don't jump and be doomed to perish.

Like the person at the window of a high-rise fire, it's really hard to jump or not to jump.

However, most people would choose to jump in order to fight for a glimmer of hope of survival.

At the very least, death by fall is better than death by burning, and also, the pain is much less.

Li Mu pointed to the singularity distribution map with his hand.

"So it seems that the third singularity, like the unknown one on Earth, has remained undiscovered because of its hidden location.

Otherwise, it's impossible for the Wind Chess Kingdom to give it up, even if it requires a great price."
