Chapter four hundred and sixty-two pedantic benevolence and righteousness
"Master Shen, you are a great scholar, and you naturally understand etiquette and rules."
Gu Chen sneered and glanced at Yao Yufei. "Since she is here to represent the hat people, she should have some rules and call me by my first name. Do you think it is appropriate?"
"this……"
Shen Xudong was speechless for a moment. Today's Gu Chen is different. His status in the Five Clans Alliance is equivalent to Huangfu Wuji's status in the Central-Earth court. As an envoy, Yao Yufei calls him by his first name, which is indeed disrespectful.
"The Gu family really has a son of Qilin."
Shen Xudong looked at Gu Chen's aggressive look and couldn't help but sigh to himself.
On the surface, Gu Chen was dissatisfied with Yao Yufei's behavior, but in fact, he had a deeper intention.
The conditions proposed by Yao Yufei just now are poisonous to the Five Clans Alliance and may achieve the purpose of dividing the alliance. This is one of the intentions of the Dou Li people in sending them here.
However, with a simple slap, Gu Chen dispelled the illusions of the leaders of the alliance's tribes and made them face reality again.
Not only that, he is now wantonly humiliating Yao Yufei, and she represents the person in the hat, but she is actually humiliating the person in the hat.
Although this boy is only eighteen years old, he is already as smart as a demon.
"How great would it be if it wasn't in this environment?"
Shen Xudong regretted in his heart that the other party was his grandson and so smart. If the two parties were not opposites, he would definitely impart all his knowledge to him!
If this son's wisdom and ability are used to help people all over the world, he will definitely make a huge contribution to Middle-earth and even the entire human race!
"His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven is right. It was indeed Saint Yao who was rude first."
Shen Xudong sighed, not daring to plead for Yao Yufei anymore.
"Guoshi Shen is indeed sensible, and I am not a murderous person. Since Yao Yufei is an envoy of your army, I will spare her life and give her a little punishment."
Gu Chen said neither salty nor bland.
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of many envoys changed again.
Didn't those two slaps just now count as punishment?
"This Gu Chen is really getting more and more cruel and ruthless."
Mu Ziyu secretly smacked her tongue. Although she couldn't stand Yao Yufei, she didn't expect Gu Chen to be so ruthless.
"Hongying, cut off her hair as punishment."
Gu Chen looked at Ji Hongying, who was holding Yao Yufei, and said coldly.
"Yes!" Ji Hongying took action immediately, her hands became as red as soldering irons, and she directly grabbed Yao Yufei's head.
"No! No! Gu Chen, you can't!"
Yao Yufei panicked and struggled desperately, but she couldn't move at all.
Everyone gasped inwardly. Cutting off her hair did sound like a small punishment, but Yao Yufei had the ultimate organ, snake devil hair, and all her abilities were in that hair!
What Ji Hongying is doing right now is clearly not just cutting off her hair, but digging out her Yakuza organs!
"Oops! This idiot Yao Yufei insists on provoking him on the Overlord's territory!"
Mingwei wanted to save Yao Yufei that day, because she was one of the more important sacrifices of Mr. Dou Li. If she was abolished, Mr. Dou Li would definitely blame her.
But what can he do when he is being stared at by a group of murderous gods? He can only scold Yao Yufei secretly for not knowing how to show appreciation and taking the initiative to cause trouble!
In full view of the public, Yao Yufei's snake hair was forcibly pulled out. Not only was her originally beautiful appearance gone, but her head was also riddled with holes.
After the punishment, Gu Chen let her go and looked at Shen Xudong again.
"Master Shen, envoys, do you have anything else to say when you are here?"
Gu Chen's words made everyone fall silent for a while. Yao Yufei, who just spoke, met such a miserable end. Who dares to say disrespectful words again?
Many people were asked by the hat-wearing men to come here to persuade them to surrender, but in fact they were not happy at all. It was better not to say anything at the moment.
"Your Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, I hope you can carefully consider the proposal you just made!"
However, Shen Xudong is a tough guy, knowing that it is inappropriate, but still stubborn.
"I know that my words are empty words, but if His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven can put the common people of the world first, I promise that I will do my best to make our emperor keep his promise!"
He gritted his teeth and faced his grandson with an almost pleading look in his eyes.
Such an old man looked at him like he was pleading, and he was still his grandfather. Even though Gu Chen was so hard-hearted, he couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart.
"After I heard that Kuncheng in Youzhou suffered an unreasonable disaster, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven mourned for all the people throughout the night. It shows that His Majesty still has a benevolent heart."
"Now you and I are evenly matched. If the war continues, it will only be the people of the world who will suffer! I don't want to see the world become rivers of blood and starvation everywhere, so I can only beg His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven to accept the surrender agreement!"
After Shen Xudong finished speaking, he bowed deeply, which shocked many people in the military camp.
I have long heard that the great scholar Shen Xudong loved his people like his own son, but he was already in his sixties, yet he was willing to be so humble to his own grandson for the sake of the people of the world.
Gu Chen appeared next to Shen Xudong almost instantly, stopping him from saluting him.
A look of pain flashed in the depths of his eyes, feeling both admirable and pitiful for Shen Xudong.
"Grandpa."
It was the first time he called Shen Xudong that, which made him look shocked.
"Do you think I am the cause of all this? Do you really think that as long as I withdraw my troops, there will be real peace in the world?"
Gu Chen's two simple questions made Shen Xudong's heart go up and down.
He remembered Huangfu Wuji's words that he would rather betray the world than let the world betray him, and remembered that he would not hesitate to join forces with the evil cult to achieve his goal...
"Grandpa, you really care about the people of Jiuzhou. In order to maintain your belief, it is understandable that you choose to side with Huangfu Wuji. But in my opinion, your behavior is just pedantic benevolence!"
Shen Xudong fell silent, and he didn't know how to refute Gu Chen's words.
"Even if I withdraw my troops, this war will not end. Instead, my comrades who are with me will suffer even greater disasters."
"This war will only end if Huangfu Wuji dies! With that said, you all can go!"
Gu Chen waved his hand, he could no longer communicate with Shen Xudong.
There is no right or wrong between the two sides, they just have different positions and different ideas!
Mu Ziyu stepped forward to help Shen Xudong. This great scholar suddenly felt much older after being criticized by his own grandson.
Shen Xudong's eyes showed confusion. In fact, he had also thought about what Gu Chen said, and he had been doubting whether his persistence was right.
But if he doesn't do this, what can he do?
"Brother Gu, I'm sorry, for my master, I have to be your enemy."
Before a group of envoys left, Qi Zeyan looked at Gu Chen and said seriously.
His master, Luo Haicheng, the Holy Lord of Nanhua Holy Land, was kidnapped by Huangfu Wuji, and his whereabouts are still unknown.
For the safety of his master, he in Nanhua Holy Land had to work with Huangfu Wuji.
"Gu Chen, my grandfather was also taken away, as well as Dean Ge, so..."
Mu Ziyu also showed an apologetic look, but hesitated to speak.
For the sake of their relatives and elders, Zhenwu Academy and Shenmu Sect could only loyal to Huangfu Wuji.
