Chapter 1095

The atmosphere in the Empyrean Lady Palace was tense. Gu Chen and Wu Huang were at loggerheads.

Wu Huang looked at Gu Chen and his companions and finally spoke coldly.

"Since you insist on your stand and are unwilling to abandon your gods and become immortals, then take your people and leave the Empyrean Lady Palace!"

Gu Chen was brewing murderous intent in his heart. When he heard this, he was stunned and looked at Wu Huang in surprise.

Jiang Baiming, Tang Ning, and the others were also surprised. Empyrean Lady, who had locked onto Wu Huang, relaxed her fingers and looked at him in relief.

Gu Chen asked as the atmosphere eased a little in an instant. "Why?"

He thought that after he made his stand clear, Wu Huang would use this as an excuse to capture him and hand him over to the Gold Clan and the Pupil Clan.

He was already prepared, but he didn't expect that the other party would only ask him to leave.

To be honest, this was very irrational. Not only would he lose a helper, but he might also anger the Gold Clan and the Pupil Clan.

A Heavenly General who had been on the battlefield for a long time should not have made such a choice.

Wu Huang said expressionlessly. "Do you think that we want to capture you and hand you over to the Gold Clan and the Pupil Clan?"

Gu Chen was silent. He looked at Heavenly General Yu, Heavenly General Ze, and the others in Wu Huang's camp and found that they were calm, as if they already knew that Wu Huang would say this.

In other words, not handing him over was their decision after discussion.

"Don't look down on us. No matter what, we are Heavenly Generals of Ancient Heaven. We have the glorious bloodline of our ancestors."

"Your stand is indeed problematic. You are not on the same side as us. But no matter what, we can't hand you over!"

Wu Huang said and looked at the countless Heavenly Soldiers on the square.

"Heavenly General Huang is a respected senior of Ancient Heaven. Even before his death, he fought for Ancient Heaven's honor and killed Supremes from the outer world."

"And my ancestor, the first generation Heavenly General Lei, also died on the battlefield with the Heavenly Emperor when the Celestial World collapsed!"

"The Desolate Heavenly Generals, my ancestors, and the countless heroes who died fighting for Ancient Heaven all had unyielding spines, undying souls, and undying wills.

"It is precisely because of this will that our Ancient Heaven is able to exist to this day."

"If we hand you over today in order to drag out an ignoble existence, how can we face the heroic spirits of the past?"

"A true man will not let down the heavens and earth. No matter what kind of severe test Ancient Heaven will face, we will do our best!"

Wu Huang's words were impassioned. It seemed to be an answer to Gu Chen, but it aroused the fighting spirit of countless Heavenly Soldiers in the square.

Ever since the sneak attack on the Heavenly Music Parlor, they had been hiding everywhere. Everyone had been suppressing a fire in their hearts.

Everyone was very confused about the future, worried that Ancient Heaven would perish.

But at this moment, Wu Huang's words reminded them of their ancestors. Their blood boiled uncontrollably as they cheered!

"That's right. Live as a hero, and die as a hero! What dogshit Outer Realm Supremes? Fight them to the end! "

"We must kill our way to the divine might of Ancient Heaven. We can't disgrace the glory of our ancestors!"

The atmosphere in the square changed rapidly. Gu Chen looked deeply at Wu Huang.

He had to admit that he had misjudged him.

Wu Huang had always been a peacemaker in Ancient Heaven. He had thought that he was a cowardly villain who would only choose to protect himself in the face of danger.

But he did not expect that not only did he not intend to hand him over, but he also used this opportunity to ignite the fighting spirit of the entire army.

Originally, the Heavenly Soldiers were hesitant, but after his words of cutting off all means of retreat, the morale of the army had gathered.

This person was brave and resourceful. No wonder he could occupy an important position in the Heavenly Music Parlor.

"Since that's what you think, why did you let me leave? We can stay here and help you. "

Gu Chen said, his tone much gentler.

"People of different principles cannot make plans together. Because of you, Ancient Heaven has already had many differences. I don't want the situation in the Pure Spirit Kingdom to repeat itself. "

As Wu Huang spoke, he glanced at Li Shunyu and the Empyrean Fairy.

Obviously, the reason why he made this decision had something to do with the two's inclination toward Gu Chen.

Gu Chen seemed to have understood what the other party was thinking.

When Tang Ning was still around, Ancient Heaven had many differences, and in the end, it even led to serious civil strife, which gave the Pure Spirit Kingdom an opportunity to take advantage of.

Although Tang Ning wanted to use the Pure Spirit Kingdom at that time, it was also a fact that Ancient Heaven had become a subsidiary of the Pure Spirit Kingdom.

Wu Huang was proud of being a person of Ancient Heaven and did not want Ancient Heaven to be controlled by external forces because of differences.

And the appearance of Gu Chen had caused serious differences in Ancient Heaven, and his unclear position made him even more worried about the future of Ancient Heaven.

Because of these considerations, he was not willing to accept Gu Chen because of the crisis and wanted to go through this hurdle himself.

"Gu Chen is different from me."

Tang Ning, who was standing behind Gu Chen, suddenly walked out.

Everyone looked at him in surprise. In front of everyone, he took off his mask on the spot.

"Tang Ning!"

As soon as Wu Huang saw Tang Ning, his expression immediately became very gloomy, and there was a big uproar.

Although Tang Ning had left Ancient Heaven, he was still the commander of the army, and his prestige still existed.

Facing everyone with his true face, Tang Ning's eyes were a little complicated at this moment.

To be honest, today's Wu Huang made him look at him in a new light.

In the past, one was the leader of the pro-war faction, and the other was the leader of the pro-peace faction, and they would always argue.

He had always felt that Wu Huang had no guts and was a coward.

But he did not expect that at this moment of life and death, he could say those words and encourage the soldiers to fight to the death.

For a moment, the gap between him and Wu Huang no longer existed, and the previous conflicts suddenly seemed very ridiculous.

"Wu Huang, I understand what you mean. I understand your concerns, but Gu Chen is different from me!"

Tang Ning said, his eyes firm and serious.

"How are we different?"

Wu Huang suppressed his anger. If not for the impending war, he would definitely settle the previous score with Tang Ning.

"Previously, I only wanted to rely on the power of the Pure Spirit Kingdom to provoke a war between Ancient Heaven and the Divine Realm. To put it bluntly, it was all for revenge, and it was not wise."

Tang Ning gritted his teeth. He rarely admitted that he was wrong. Hearing this, Wu Huang's expression eased a lot.

"And Gu Chen is different from me. What he wants to do is far greater than my petty revenge, and he also has more possibilities than me!"

Tang Ning said with certainty. When the Heavenly Generals who were originally pro-war with him heard this, their faces showed that they were moved.

"I don't care what he does. In this situation, there is no need to discuss this!"

Wu Huang frowned. He did not want to have a long discussion with Tang Ning. What they needed to discuss now was how to fight the enemy.

So he turned to look at Gu Chen and said. "Tyrant, if you're really thinking for the Ancient Heavenly Court, please take your men and leave!"

Gu Chen's eyes flickered, and his heart wavered.

He would not leave. If Wu Huang was the kind of person he imagined, then he would end the internal strife with iron blood.
