Mu Jinyu was about to strike this guy down with a slash when he heard his words, his movement pausing slightly.
The young man noticed the small detail in Mu Jinyu's actions and felt a slight relief, realizing there was room for negotiation.
He hurriedly continued to persuade, "Really, killing me won't do you any good. If you spare me, I can take you faster to Cangyan State, earn academic credits for you, help you gather information. There are many benefits..."
Listening to the man, Mu Jinyu's expression flickered slightly, pondering.
To be honest, when they both came to hunt him down, he was genuinely prepared to strike them dead, even if Dongyue Mansion found out later and responded with thunderous wrath, he wouldn't care.
After all, he had already reached the Eastern Region Center, where the sky is high and the birds fly, the sea wide and the fish leap.
Even being expelled from Dongyue Mansion wouldn't affect him much.
