The atmosphere in Xuannv's palace was tense, and Gu Chen and Wu Huang faced each other tit for tat.
Wu Huang looked at Gu Chen and his companions, and finally spoke coldly.
"Since you have always insisted on your position and are unwilling to abandon the gods and become immortals, then take your people and leave Xuannv Palace!"
Gu Chen was preparing to kill, when he heard this, he was taken aback, and looked at Wu Huang in surprise.
Jiang Baiming, Tang Ning and the others were also surprised. Xuannv's five fingers, who had already locked onto Wu Huang in the dark, quietly let go, with a look of relief on their faces.
The atmosphere at the scene eased up instantly, Gu Chen asked. "Why?"
He originally thought that after he stated his position, Wu Huang would use this excuse to attack him, trying to capture him and hand him over to the Gold Clan and the Tong Clan.
He was also ready, but he didn't expect that the other party just let him leave.
To be honest, such an approach is very irrational. Not only will he lose his helper, but it may also anger the Golden and Tong clan even more.
A seasoned general should not have made such a choice.
Wu Huang said with a blank face. "Could it be that you think we'll want to capture you and hand you over to the Golden Clan and the Pupil Clan?"
Gu Chen was silent, looking at General Yutian, General Zetian and others who were in the same camp as Wu Huang, and found that their expressions were calm, as if they already knew that Wu Huang would say that.
In other words, not choosing to surrender themselves was their decision after discussion.
"Don't underestimate us, no matter what, we are also the generals of the ancient heavenly court, with the blood of our ancestors flowing through our bodies."
"There is indeed a problem with your position. You are not on the same side as us, but no matter what, we can't hand you over!"
Wu Huang said, looking at the countless heavenly soldiers on the square.
"Huangtian will be a highly respected senior of my ancient heavenly court. Even when he is dying, he will still fight for my ancient heavenly court and kill the supreme beings outside the world."
"And the first generation of my ancestor Lei Tian will also follow the Emperor of Heaven when the fairy world collapsed, and finally die in battle!"
"Whether it's the Huangtian General, my ancestors, or the countless heroic spirits who died fighting for the ancient heaven, they all have an unyielding backbone, an immortal soul and will."
"It is this kind of will that has been passed down from generation to generation, and my ancient heaven can exist until now."
"If we hand you over today just to survive, how can we be worthy of the heroic spirits of all ages?"
"The man is worthy of the heaven and the earth. No matter what severe test the ancient heaven will face next, we will do our best!"
Wu Huang's impassioned words seemed to be answering Gu Chen, but they aroused the fighting spirit of countless heavenly soldiers in the square.
Ever since the Tianyin Pavilion was attacked and they hid everywhere, everyone felt a fire in their hearts.
Everyone is very confused about the future, worrying that the ancient heaven will perish.
But at this moment, Wu Huang's words reminded them of their ancestors in the past, the blood in their bodies couldn't help boiling, and they shouted wildly!
"That's right, to be a hero in life, and to be a hero in death! What kind of bullshit is the supreme being outside the world, fight them to the end!"
"If you want to fight out the divine power of my ancient heaven, you can't humiliate the glory of your ancestors!"
The atmosphere in the square changed rapidly, Gu Chen took a deep look at Wu Huang.
He had to admit that he was wrong.
Wu Huang has always been a peacemaker in the ancient heavenly court. He thought he was a cowardly villain who would only choose to protect himself in the face of a crisis.
But unexpectedly, not only did he not intend to surrender himself, but he also took advantage of this opportunity to ignite the fighting spirit of the entire army.
Originally, the heavenly soldiers were hesitant in their hearts, but under his remark, the army's spirit has been united.
This person is brave and resourceful, no wonder he can occupy an important seat in Tianyin Pavilion.
"Since you think so in your heart, why do you let me leave? We can help you by staying here."
Gu Chen said, his tone softened a lot.
"Differences do not conspire with each other. Because of your matter, there have been many differences in the Ancient Heavenly Court. I don't want the situation in the Jingling Demon Realm to repeat itself."
Wu Huang glanced at Li Sunyu and Xuannv while speaking.
Obviously, the reason why he made this decision is not unrelated to the two people's inclination towards Gu Chen.
If Gu Chen realized something in his heart, he understood what the other party was thinking.
When Tang Ning was still there, Gu Tianting had many disagreements, and in the end even caused serious civil strife, which gave Jingling Yaoyu an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Although Tangning wanted to use the Jingling Demon Realm at that time, it was also a fact that Gu Tianting became a subsidiary of the Jingling Demon Realm.
Wu Huang is proud of being a member of the ancient heavenly court, and he does not want the ancient heavenly court to have many conflicts due to differences, and even be manipulated by external forces because of this.
The appearance of Gu Chen has already caused serious disagreements in Gu Tianting, and his unclear position made him even more worried about Gu Tianting's future.
Because of these considerations, he was unwilling to accept Gu Chen just because of the crisis, and wanted to break through this hurdle by himself.
"Gu Chen is different from me."
Tangning, who was standing behind Gu Chen, suddenly walked out.
Everyone looked at him unexpectedly, and he took off his mask on the spot in full view.
"Tangning!"
As soon as Wu Huang saw Tangning, his expression immediately became very gloomy, and there was a commotion in the audience.
Although Tangning left Gu Tianting, she was the commander in chief of the army after all, so her prestige still exists.
Facing everyone with a true face, Tangning's eyes were a bit complicated at the moment.
To be honest, today's Wu Huang impresses him.
In the past, one of them was the leader of the war faction, and the other was the leader of the peace faction, and they always argued constantly.
He always felt that Wu Huang was worthless and a coward.
But he didn't expect that at such a moment of life and death, he would be able to say what he said earlier, inspiring the soldiers to fight bloody battles.
For a moment, the gap between him and him disappeared, and the previous fights suddenly seemed ridiculous.
"Wu Huang, I understand what you mean, I understand your concerns, but Gu Chen is different from me!"
Tangning spoke with a firm and serious gaze.
"What's the difference?"
Wu Huang suppressed his anger. If it wasn't for the imminent battle, he would definitely settle the score with Tangning.
"In the past, I just wanted to rely on the power of the Jingling Demon Realm to provoke a war between the ancient heavenly court and the God Realm. To put it bluntly, all that was just for revenge, which is not wise."
Tangning gritted her teeth and said, it was rare for him to admit that he was wrong. Wu Huang's face softened a lot upon hearing that.
"And Gu Chen is different from me. What he wants to do is far greater than my petty revenge. He also has more possibilities than me!"
Tang Ning's words were so convincing that the generals who were originally from the main combat faction with him had a look of emotion on their faces when they heard the words.
"I don't care what he does. In the current situation, there is no need to discuss these things!"
Wu Huang frowned. He didn't want to have a long discussion with Tangning. What needs to be discussed now is how to face the enemy.
So he turned to look at Gu Chen and said. "Overlord, if you really care about Gu Tianting, please take your troops and leave!"
Gu Chen's eyes flickered, and his heart was shaken.
He will not leave, if Wu Huang is the kind of person he imagined, then now he will use iron and blood to end the internal strife.
But Wu Huang is not, he is also a strong general of the heaven, it is difficult for him to make a move against him.
