"I know you're the new governor of Yunzhou."
The woman spoke steadily to Mo Lin: "The East District has fallen, you can't hold it alone."
"Who are you?" Mo Lin asked again.
"I am a disciple of Daoist Mountain, Min Yu." The woman identified herself to Mo Lin.
"Everything happening here is because of you."
Min Yu blamed Mo Lin: "If you hadn't been at the Celestial Sect, killed Lin Xiaoman, the East District wouldn't have fallen, and these people wouldn't have died."
What kind of logic is this?
Throwing mud at Mo Lin's reputation?
Forcing it?
"These people died because of you." Min Yu added another sentence.
"I seem to have heard earlier that it was your Daoist Mountain's inaction that led to their deaths?"
Mo Lin now saw the clues.
This was indeed a defensive line, and Sun Yu guarding here wasn't wrong.
In fact, the main defense here should have been Daoist Mountain.
Sun Yu and his team all died.
But the people from Daoist Mountain were perfectly fine.
The implication was obvious.
Everyone was on the same boat, the ferryman died, but the crew remained unharmed, isn't that strange?
"Why don't you go to Daoist Mountain to reason?"
Min Yu looked around at the ghosts, shook her head, and said: "I'm afraid you won't have another chance to reason with Daoist Mountain, after all, you can't defend Yun Chuan today."
"Once I deal with things here, I'll go to your Daoist Mountain and talk 'reason'.
Mo Lin slowly stepped forward and began drawing an array on a huge rock.
Min Yu's lips curled into a cold smile.
In her view, Mo Lin was merely struggling before death.
The area was already lost, no matter how strong Mo Lin was, could he fend off all the ghosts alone?
Impossible.
At least thousands of ghosts have poured into Yunzhou, and Mo Lin couldn't possibly capture all those ghosts alone.
Besides, this place needed guarding.
Mo Lin, on his own, couldn't possibly guard this place.
Min Yu crossed her arms, watching what Mo Lin was attempting to do.
It only took about a minute, and Mo Lin completed the array.
A surge of pitch-black Ghost Qi erupted from the array.
Then, ghosts of the Cave Master Level began to emerge.
Chu Xing.
Hong Ye.
Bing Yu.
Song Village.
Zhang Wuzhi.
Xue.
Any one of these ghosts, placed outside, is a formidable existence.
Moreover, the number of ghosts in the air continued to increase.
Over a thousand ghosts appeared.
Min Yu was suddenly so astonished she couldn't speak.
Seeing the dense swarm of ghosts around her made her scalp tingle.
The vast majority of them were ghosts of the Cave Master Level.
Even she wasn't their match.
"Greetings, Lord Mo."
All the ghosts knelt on the ground in respect, greeting Mo Lin.
"Chu Xing, guard here, do not let the ghosts from Jiangzhou Dao break through."
Mo Lin instructed Chu Xing.
"Understood."
Chu Xing nodded and agreed.
As long as they weren't from the Ghost King Realm, he feared none.
Furthermore, in such a place, normally, no ghosts of the Ghost King Realm would appear.
Ghosts of the Ghost King Realm aren't as common as vegetables.
"Hong Ye, take the ghosts and hunt down those ghosts from the Ghost Realm rampaging in Yunzhou." Mo Lin commanded Hong Ye.
"Understood."
With that, Hong Ye immediately led over a hundred ghosts away.
Then they began their pursuit.
They accomplished tasks far faster than humans do.
And they could precisely locate every ghost.
Hong Ye was a ghost of the Cave Master Realm.
As long as she didn't encounter a Ghost King, she feared none.
Even if she did encounter a Ghost King, she could still trade a few moves.
The situation was quickly stabilized.
Chu Xing led over five hundred ghosts, guarding the East District.
With Chu Xing's appearance, there were no ghosts appearing on Jiangzhou Dao's side.
Not even mosquitoes dared to come.
Even stray dogs passing by didn't dare glance their way.
After all, Chu Xing's aura was here.
Most ghosts fear the strong and bully the weak.
With Chu Xing's appearance, the place instantly quieted down.
The ghosts from Jiangzhou Dao, who had been eager to try, now all retreated.
Unless a Ghost King leads an attack, there would be no surprise here.
This is Mo Lin's power.
In less than five minutes, he stabilized the situation.
Only then did Min Yu realize that her palms and back were drenched with sweat.
At this moment, she realized something.
Daoist Mountain seems to have provoked someone they shouldn't have.
The person in front of her was not someone Daoist Mountain could afford to offend.
"Let's go, take me to your Daoist Mountain." Mo Lin said coldly to Min Yu.
Min Yu's feet felt like they were filled with lead, difficult to move an inch.
Then Min Yu felt a chill at the back of her neck.
She turned to see, at some point, a ghost appeared behind her.
This ghost's palm was gripping her neck.
With a word from Mo Lin, Min Yu's neck would be snapped.
"Let's go, I'll discuss some reasoning with your Daoist Mountain."
Mo Lin's words sounded ordinary.
But in Min Yu's ears, it was as if announcing a death sentence to them.
Min Yu had no choice but to lead Mo Lin to Daoist Mountain.
In just ten minutes, Mo Lin reached the Daoist Temple atop Daoist Mountain.
Daoist Mountain had roughly over two hundred people, all of whom rushed out at this time.
Facing off against Mo Lin from the front.
Leading them was a middle-aged man in a Daoist robe.
"I am the manager here, my name is Hong Qi." The middle-aged man proactively revealed his identity to Mo Lin.
Before Mo Lin could speak, Hong Qi spoke again.
"I am solely responsible for today's event. Please, spare them."
"Your Daoist Mountain was responsible for guarding the East District. Why didn't you assist Sun Yu and them when they were in danger?"
Mo Lin questioned Hong Qi: "Why did you stand by and watch the East District fall?"
Hong Qi took a deep breath, then answered: "It was my selfish motives. I deliberately prevented them from going to assist, wanting Yunzhou to fall."
When Hong Qi uttered these words.
Mo Lin no longer needed to ask further.
It was unnecessary.
"It was all my fault. I'm willing to use my life to atone, please show mercy and spare the others."
"You want me to spare them? Who spared those people?" Mo Lin pointed to the distance, at the ordinary people killed by ghosts.
"When I came, I passed through three districts, everyone in those districts was dead, at least tens of thousands.
Who spared them?
Did they deserve to be killed by ghosts?"
Hong Qi lowered his head in silence.
"Don't pretend to be good here, it's only because I'm stronger than you that you bow and admit fault, nothing more."
Do you think others don't understand?
If Mo Lin were even slightly weaker, would he bow his head?
Everyone in Yunzhou would die, would Hong Qi feel guilty?
Would the Daoist Mountain disciples feel guilty?
Of course not.
Min Yu is the perfect example.
The people around us are pretending to be pitiful.
In reality?
They're not good people.
A mountain can't have two types of tigers.
"What do you mean? Do you want to kill all of us?" Min Yu questioned Mo Lin.
"Why else?" Mo Lin replied with a rhetorical question.
