Chapter 2135 - 2139: You're Marrying Mu Yunxi?

Jin Yunzhong felt curious, he sensed that after all these years, this was the first time he couldn't understand his own son.

Previously, Jin Lin insisted on writing a letter to provoke Qin Tian. Although Jin Yunzhong opposed it at the time, he agreed under Jin Lin's persistent insistence.

However, the provocation seemed unsuccessful, as Qin Tian did not reply.

In response, Qin Tian immediately organized his troops to attack Demon Capital City, without waiting for anything on the fifteenth of September to come to the Demon City.

Now that things have become so urgent, Jin Lin still plays missing? What exactly does he want to do?

Jin Yunzhong waited at the residence until around three in the morning before he saw Jin Lin return.

"Father, you haven't slept yet?"

Jin Lin, clad in black, was stunned when he saw Jin Yunzhong.

"Lin, what's wrong with you? I see your complexion..."

At first glance, Jin Yunzhong noticed Jin Lin's weary and dispirited demeanor.

"It's nothing... Father, you should go and rest..."

Jin Lin intended to leave, but Jin Yunzhong remained motionless, his gaze fixed on his son.

Jin Lin looked at Jin Yunzhong and said, "Father, what's wrong with you tonight?"

"Lin, even now, do you still have secrets from me? What are you doing that even I can't know?"

Hesitating a little, Jin Yunzhong asked directly, "Do you think your father is useless?"

"Father, no, what are you saying?"

Jin Lin stepped forward with a slight smile, "Father, don't worry, I've grown up now. The matters of the Jin Family, its future, leave it to me, I can support it all!"

"But now, with Qin Tian's 300,000 troops, first attacking our hometown Demon Spirit City, and then Demon Capital City, it feels like we're in great danger... Why aren't you anxious at all?"

Jin Yunzhong shook his head and sighed, "Back then, we acted against Qin Tian to avoid living under others' shadow. Now, in Demon City, we are still constrained everywhere. Apart from our over ten thousand people, the Demon King doesn't give us any say. It's too difficult for us in Demon City!"

Thud!

Jin Lin knelt down and kowtowed to Jin Yunzhong, "Father, I am unfilial! I made you sad! But please believe, this is only temporary. When it comes to the fifteenth of September, everything will be better; no matter Qin Tian or the Demon King, I, Jin Lin, will completely disregard them!"

Jin Lin's mother died early, and he was filial to Jin Yunzhong since he was young. Hearing that Jin Yunzhong was getting angry, he was furious: "Even if Qin Tian doesn't come on the fifteenth of September, I'm prepared to vent on the Demon King by then!"

"Son, what exactly are you going to do? Have you deviated? Where do you get the confidence to challenge Qin Tian and the Demon King?"

Jin Yunzhong was bewildered, feeling like his son had transformed into someone he didn't recognize, becoming sinister and arrogant.

He helped Jin Lin up and asked, "Son, tell me honestly, is Mu Yunxi in your hands?"

In fact, after that battle in Demon City, Jin Yunzhong had been searching for Mu Yunxi but couldn't find her.

"Yes."

Jin Lin answered without hesitation.

Jin Yunzhong frowned, "Where is she?"

"In a hidden place," Jin Lin replied.

"Lin, Yunxi is Mu Jing'an's most beloved daughter. Over the years, she has been respectful to me. This time, our actions are all targeting Qin Tian. Yunxi, don't make her suffer. She's a pitiful child. Why don't you give her to me, and let me persuade her to break away from Qin Tian?"

Having been friends with Mu Jing'an for decades, Jin Yunzhong felt a pang of compassion.

"Father, for the sake of our Jin Family's development, everything is secondary."

With a calm expression, Jin Lin said, "I will handle Mu Yunxi, you don't need to interfere. I said, give me some more time. Once I've achieved great success, our Jin Family can glorify our ancestors."

"Lin, what exactly do you plan to do with Yunxi?" Jin Yunzhong asked.

"I initially wanted to marry her, but... hehe, now there's another use."

"The marriage you mentioned to Qin Tian, the wedding on the fifteenth of September, who are you marrying? It should be fake information, right? Just to provoke Qin Tian to come to Demon City?"

"Yes, and no. I do want to provoke Qin Tian to come to Demon City, but the marriage is real."

"With Yunxi?"

Jin Lin nodded, "Strictly speaking, it is with Yunxi's corpse."

"This..."

Jin Yunzhong was stunned, shocked beyond words, "You, you killed her!?"

But Jin Lin did not answer; instead, he said, "Once, for a moment, I truly had feelings for Yunxi. Later, seeing her fondness for Qin Tian, who indeed possessed talents beyond mine, I voluntarily stepped back."

"I originally thought of wishing them happiness. However, deep in my heart, I couldn't. Now, since I have the opportunity, even if it's Yunxi's corpse, I wouldn't hesitate to marry her. The time is on September fifteenth. By then, I hope Qin Tian will come, to witness that I am stronger than him, and that Mu Yunxi is mine, my wife!"

As he spoke, a hint of unyielding murderous intent appeared in Jin Lin's eyes.

"Marrying Yunxi is one thing, but why kill her!"

Jin Yunzhong took a deep breath, "Son, you have changed. In the past two months, you've changed so much that even I can hardly recognize you. How could you become like this, even laying hands on Yunxi?"

"I didn't want to kill her... but..."

With a resolute gaze, Jin Lin said, "Father, rest assured, everything I've done is for the good of our Jin Family. It's just a few days away, and you will know everything by then!"

"Son, what has happened to you..."

"Father, it's late. You should go and rest. I need to rest too, I'm leaving now."

Without any explanation, Jin Lin turned and left resolutely, despite Jin Yunzhong's agitation.

Jin Yunzhong watched Jin Lin leave, tears streaming down his face.

"Everything I did was for you, to lay a solid foundation and grow the Jin Family. But why have you changed like this..."

Jin Yunzhong took a deep breath, thinking, no matter if Demon City falls, I need to see what he's been doing these days!

The next day, Jin Yunzhong set aside everything and stayed home, waiting until nightfall, keeping an eye on Jin Lin's actions.

Sure enough, as usual, as soon as night fell, Jin Lin dressed in black and left.

Jin Yunzhong held his breath, quietly following.

Jin Lin went straight out of Demon City, heading south.

Jin Yunzhong followed, and after about eighty kilometers, he saw Jin Lin enter a ghostly forest.

Hesitating for a moment, Jin Yunzhong took several elixirs and followed inside.

The territory of the Demon Clan, south of Demon City, is full of poisonous gases, miasma, and ghostly atmosphere, eerie and scary, sparsely populated.
