The first thousand two hundred and sixty-four chapters
"Junior dare not, but Lord Dao should be very clear about the pros and cons of agreeing or not agreeing to this deal. Instead of caring about a passing army, Lord Dao should look to the future."
Gu Chen didn't seem to notice Lord Xingdao's dissatisfaction, and his calm temperament made the four Xingjun generals smile bitterly and admire him a bit.
Regardless of whether you overestimate your capabilities or not, it is extremely courageous to say this!
Lord Xingdao was silent for a while, and suddenly, his laughter echoed throughout the void.
"Okay, let's look to the future! I appreciate you very much, and it's okay to give you a chance!"
His laughter was hearty, and he seemed to agree to Gu Chen's conditions.
The four Xingjun generals were shocked when they heard this. They didn't expect that the Lord would not care about what happened before and really planned to accept this kid!
Is the Lord in a particularly good mood today, or does he really value his talents that much?
The four of them didn't know the Lord's true thoughts, but they all breathed a sigh of relief. At least the Lord agreed to this matter, and their lives should have been saved.
"Thank you Daojun Chengcheng. I will not let you down."
Gu Chen also showed a relieved smile on his face, and bowed to the void to express his surrender.
"From now on, I will not send anyone to interfere in the Ninth Realm. Its future is at your discretion. But similarly, you must come to our Penal Realm immediately and accept my appointment. What can you do?
Opinion?"
"Are you leaving immediately..."
Gu Chen murmured in his heart, but his face did not show any displeasure. He nodded and said, "I will follow Dao Lord's instructions."
"Well, just kill three of the four of them and leave one to take you to the execution world."
Mr. Xingdao said again.
"Kill three people?"
Gu Chen showed a look of surprise, and the faces of the four Xingjun generals turned pale.
"Lord, have mercy on me! Lord, have mercy on me!"
The four of them knelt down and kowtowed.
"Your entire army was wiped out in this battle. You were guilty and deserved to die!"
Xing Daojun snorted coldly and ignored the four of them. When talking to Gu Chen, his tone softened a little.
"These four people have been following Pang Zheng for a long time. You can keep them all if you want, but in the end they won't be able to cultivate them into their confidants."
Gu Chen nodded and understood what Lord Xingdao meant.
Kill three of the four, and the remaining one will be grateful. In this way, he, who has just entered Xingjun, will have a subordinate he can trust.
This is the way to govern a subordinate. It sounds simple, but in fact it illustrates the indifference and cruelty of the superior.
Gu Chen suddenly had a deeper understanding of this Xingdao Lord.
"Well, you can leave. I am waiting for your arrival in the prison world."
After Xing Daojun finished speaking, the world inside the Gate of Death suddenly became illusory and transparent.
After a while, the world was spinning, and Gu Chen appeared in the original starry sky!
After confirming that Mr. Xingdao's spiritual thoughts were really gone, Gu Chen quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and was surprised to find that his palms were sweaty.
Even though he had behaved very calmly and fearlessly in front of Lord Xingdao before, his heart was actually full of worry.
If Lord Xingdao doesn't follow his lead and insists on destroying the Ninth Realm, then he really doesn't know what to do.
Gu Chen knew very well that with Xingjun's strength, if he continued to send more troops, the Ninth Realm would definitely not be able to stop them.
And with his current strength, he is not enough to compete with them, so all he can do is to pretend to surrender!
Feng Yaya once told him that for Xingjun, the Ninth Realm is not a life-and-death enemy. They are fighting everywhere in the Sea of Chaos, and the real enemies are elsewhere.
As long as the cost of conquering the Ninth Realm exceeds the limit they are willing to bear, they may change their minds.
Gu Chen learned about the situation from Feng Yaya, so he considered today's scene very early.
It is necessary to destroy Xingjun's army. Only by letting them know the strength of the Ninth Realm can the two sides negotiate.
And with the possibility of negotiation, he has the opportunity to exchange conditions for peace in the Ninth Realm!
To be honest, Gu Chen was not sure that Mr. Xingdao would accept his conditions before entering the Gate of Daoxi, but in the current situation, he had to take this step.
Things went smoothly beyond his imagination, and Mr. Xingdao agreed readily, without even mentioning any other additional conditions.
"His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven!"
Gu Chen was thinking about the doubts of the previous conversation. When the generals of the heavenly court and many giants of the starry sky saw the Gate of Death disappear and the Emperor of Heaven return, they all flew over quickly.
"How's it going?"
Immortal Emperor Qi Tian was the first to arrive and asked with concern.
"Take these four people down and keep them under strict supervision."
Gu Chen did not answer. He glanced at the four Xingjun generals and asked a heavenly general to take them away and imprison them.
When the four of them were no longer in sight, Gu Chen summoned his most trustworthy companions, set up a soundproofing ban, and told the results of his conversation with Mr. Xingdao.
"You want to join Xingjun? This is absolutely not allowed! It is very likely that Lord Xingdao just coaxed you to go there. If you go, you may die!"
Everyone was shocked after hearing this, and Li Shunyu objected anxiously.
"Yes, this move is too risky. We might as well stick to the Chaos Trail Window. We can win this war and the next one."
Ghost Emperor's serious approach was the same as Li Shunyu's.
Gu Chen looked at his companions who were seriously injured or even missing arms and legs in this battle, and shook his head. "If Xingjun sends an army again, we will definitely not be able to stop them."
Xingjun is a behemoth that rules hundreds of worlds. Judging from the size and strength of the army that invaded the Ninth Realm this time, if the Ninth Realm continues to confront them, it will definitely encounter disaster.
"Gu Chen, boy, this is not like you. How can you make others' ambitions destroy your own prestige?"
Long Ma said unconvinced that they had completely won this war.
"What Gu Chen said makes sense."
Zuo Chunqiu refuted Long Ma at this time, with a solemn look on his face. "When I killed a Xingjun general, I searched for his soul. The man killed by Gu Chen was the Heavenly Punishment General of Xingjun, and inside Xingjun
, there are still nine such generals of heavenly punishment."
"Then there are nine more masters?"
Hei Gou was moved when he heard this, and remembered the scene where even the left-handed demon couldn't hurt a single hair on Pang Zheng.
Everyone witnessed Pang Zheng's strength. It could be said that except for Gu Chen, anyone present had absolutely no chance of winning against him.
And there were nine people at his level alone. Even Gu Chen couldn't possibly deal with them all!
"More than that, this time we were attacked by billions of torture beasts. It is said that the army of torture beasts is just a weapon researched by Xing County and can be produced continuously."
"It is said that there are many weapons like that in Xingjun. For example, the army of Xinggui that once attacked the fairy world is one of them."
