 **Chapter 2741: Kill Him, Who Dares to Speak Up?**

Perhaps because the Eastern Spirit Empire had just taken action, the originally dangerous journey did not encounter any unexpected events.

The origin shuttle smoothly crossed the long distance of 1.5 million kilometers and arrived at Luo City.

Lin Moyu's eyes showed some disappointment; the situation in Luo City was not much better than in Star City.

The entire city had already been destroyed, with hardly a single intact building.

There were also many injured people in the city. Curiosity seemed to be a common trait among humans, and even highly skilled cultivators could not avoid it.

The people in the city were already busy, and Lin Moyu didn't want to join the commotion.

He found the location of the Lu Feng Merchant Guild from the air and landed directly.

The situation of the Lu Feng Merchant Guild was almost identical to that in Star City, with no differences.

As for when it would recover, the answer was unknown.

Lin Moyu left disappointed and headed to another city, Fengwu City.

Fengwu City was one of the cities controlled by the Wu family of Crack Wind Cliff. The Wu family had a powerful presence in the Southern Continent. Because they were close to the coast and near the Eastern Continent, they were one of the first families to come to the Eastern Continent.

They established many strongholds in the Eastern Continent, with Fengwu City being one of them.

Having experienced Star City and Luo City, Lin Moyu had little hope for Fengwu City.

Sure enough, upon arriving at Fengwu City, Lin Moyu saw a similar situation.

The Lu Feng Merchant Guild in the city was also in a paralyzed state.

"Each major city generally has strong individuals above the fourth realm of Dao Sovereign guarding it. Once the Eastern Spirit Empire takes action, it's likely that no major city will be spared."

"In that case, there's no need to visit other cities deliberately, as the situation won't be much different."

After some thought, Lin Moyu decided to go to a city established by the Lu Feng Merchant Guild itself in the Eastern Continent, Shang City.

All major forces had established cities in the Eastern Continent, and as one of the top forces, the Lu Feng Merchant Guild naturally had its own city.

Their city was called Shang City, located near the central part of the Eastern Continent, deep within it, unlike Lin Moyu's current location, which was still on the eastern side of the Eastern Continent, near the boundary sea. Shang City was 40 million kilometers away from Fengwu City, and even with the speed of the origin shuttle, it would take over twenty days to reach.

Without the origin shuttle, it would take Lin Moyu at least fifty days to fly there.

The origin shuttle was not only fast but, most importantly, safe.

When flying, it was wrapped in the power of belief, making the origin shuttle's movements very small and not easily detectable.

Without a suitable flying treasure, generally, no one would traverse such a long distance in the Eastern Continent. Even Dao Sovereigns would have to think twice, as they might encounter a powerful spirit beast halfway and die prematurely.

Lin Moyu chose his route based on the map he had, and he would pass through four major cities along the way to check their situations.

He also had to avoid some dangerous areas. When he bought the map from the Lu Feng Merchant Guild, it already marked some dangerous zones. Some dangers came from spirit beasts, while others were naturally formed.

Thus, the entire journey would be extended to thirty days, adding ten more days for safety.

The origin shuttle started again, heading towards the target.

Lin Moyu leisurely brewed tea in the origin shuttle, watching the beautiful scenery pass by on both sides.

He multitasked, simultaneously comprehending arrays and runes.

Lin Moyu could now easily integrate runes into arrays, but he still couldn't make runes form arrays independently.

The runes integrated into the arrays were still in a scattered state.

However, he felt he had touched this bottleneck, and perhaps with one opportunity, he could break through.

Many times, cultivation couldn't just be about moving forward; it also required calming down and taking it slowly.

When the lunar origin appeared, it was his cultivation time. Without the support of the seventh-grade spirit vein's origin power, his cultivation speed slowed significantly.

After flying for a day, a gust of wind came, and the originally fast-flying origin shuttle suddenly slowed down.

Lin Moyu frowned and woke up from his cultivation.

Under the light of the lunar origin, Lin Moyu saw two people standing ahead.

"They're from the Wu family!"

Seeing their attire, he recognized their identity.

Their clothes bore the mark of the Wu family.

Both were Dao Sovereigns, but their realms were not high, one at the first realm and the other at the second realm of Dao Sovereign.

In this attack by the Eastern Spirit Empire, they were not among the targets.

Lin Moyu used the Divine Light Wood and donned a red scarf, leaving the origin shuttle.

The Divine Light Wood concealed part of Lin Moyu's information, but it was still roughly discernible that he was a Heavenly Sovereign.

Because of the red scarf, they did not discover Lin Moyu's identity as the Son of Tai Yin.

Lin Moyu looked at the two, "Two seniors, instead of repairing the city in Fengwu City, why are you blocking my way here? Do you have any instructions?"

Lin Moyu remained calm, his tone neither humble nor arrogant, making the two feel as if they were being looked down upon.

Seeing such an attitude, the two were unsure of Lin Moyu's background.

The second-realm Dao Sovereign of the Wu family said loudly, "I am Wu Daoqi, a Dao Sovereign of the Wu family of Crack Wind Cliff. Today, I stopped you to borrow something from you."

Lin Moyu asked, "With your status, what could you possibly want from me?"

Wu Daoqi glanced at the origin shuttle beside Lin Moyu, "This thing."

Lin Moyu frowned. The origin shuttle was precious but not overly so. Was it worth it for a Dao Sovereign of the Wu family?

Wu Daoqi said, "Fengwu City suffered heavy losses in the recent beast tide and needs help from other cities."

"But we lack flying treasures. Can you lend me your origin shuttle?"

Without thinking, Lin Moyu shook his head, "I'm sorry, but the origin shuttle is of great use to me. With my low realm, I wouldn't get far in the Eastern Continent without it."

"Besides, with your strength as a Dao Sovereign, your speed shouldn't be much slower than the origin shuttle."

Wu Daoqi's expression turned unfriendly, "I'm not here to waste words with you. Just tell me, will you lend it or not?"

"I can pay you some origin crystals as a loan fee, and in the future, the origin shuttle will naturally be returned to you."

"Our Wu family wouldn't stoop to robbing a mere Heavenly Sovereign like you."

Lin Moyu preferred to think the worst of people and didn't believe Wu Daoqi's words at all.

He was more inclined to believe that once the origin shuttle fell into their hands, it would never return.

Lin Moyu cautiously put away the origin shuttle, fearing they might destroy it out of spite if they couldn't get it.

Wu Daoqi's face turned even uglier.

Lin Moyu said, "The origin shuttle is my lifeline, and I can't lend it out. Please find another way."

Wu Daoqi's voice turned low, "Think again. I'll give you one more chance."

Lin Moyu said, "If I still refuse, will you take action against me?"

Wu Daoqi said coldly, "Yes, and so what? I've tried to reason with you, but if you insist on being stubborn, you'll have to suffer."

Suffering probably meant being beaten half to death, which was no different from outright robbery.

Lin Moyu said softly, "Senior, think carefully. Are you really prepared to rob me?"

At this moment, the Dao Sovereign beside Wu Daoqi finally spoke, "Big brother, why waste words with him? Just take it."

"A mere Heavenly Sovereign, what can he do? Kill him, and who dares to speak up?"
