Chapter 400
The atmosphere in the room became extremely oppressive. Huangfu Wuji's strength was like a huge mountain, firmly pressing down on the hearts of the Southern Mountain Sages.
"Now that things have come to this, I'm afraid we can only compromise with Huangfu Wuji and hope to preserve the peace of the Southern Mountains Range."
After a long while, the Monster Saint of the Phoenix Clan spoke first.
"What kind of conditions can make Huangfu Wuji give up on my Nanling Mountains?"
The Demon Saint of the Five Elements Tribe also began to think about this possibility.
"Everyone, you're wrong to think like that. So long as we're able to rescue the leaders of the various powers, then we'll be able to fight Huangfu Wuji!"
Jiang Buzhuo said hurriedly.
The reaction of the Demon Saints had betrayed his purpose of coming here!
"Master Jiang, you don't even know where they are trapped. How are you going to save them?"
Demon Sage White Tiger snorted coldly. "Moreover, the place where Huangfu Wuji imprisoned them must be heavily guarded. Why should the demon clans bleed and sacrifice their lives just to save the human forces? Even if we get rid of Huangfu Wuji, who knows what kind of new emperor will emerge from your human race? "
"What we have to consider is the survival of our Southern Mountains Demon Tribe. We will not be hired thugs for your human race's internal strife!"
Demon Sage White Tiger's words rendered Jiang Buzhuo speechless. Although he was the best blacksmith on the continent, he was obsessed with blacksmithing and did not understand the human heart well enough.
Now that they knew that all the major powers in the Central Plains were under Huangfu Wuji's control, the demonic beasts didn't feel that this was an opportunity. Instead, they felt that Huangfu Wuji was even more dangerous.
The Beast Sages began to discuss the possibility of living in peace with Huangfu Wuji. At this moment, the Honey Badger Beast Sage snorted coldly.
"Stop your wishful thinking. Huangfu Wuji even annihilated the imperial family of the central plains, so what reason does he have to coexist peacefully with my demon race?"
"That Huangfu De's methods in the Armament Armory were incomparably despicable, and it's obvious that his father isn't any better. If all of you have any illusions towards the Huangfu Clan and cause the battle to be delayed, then you'll be the sinners of the southern ridge demon race!"
His words were extremely harsh, and everyone was instantly enraged.
"Easy for you to say. Now that Huangfu Wuji is so domineering, how are we going to win? If not for you missing out on the Armament King Armament Armory, we might still have a chance of fighting! "
Demon Sage White Tiger glared at him.
"What if I say that the Armament Armory isn't in Huangfu Wuji's hands?"
At this moment, Gu Chen, who had been listening at the side, suddenly spoke.
Everyone looked at him in unison. Demon Saint White Tiger said with dissatisfaction. "Don't interrupt when the adults are talking!"
"Is that so? But I, this little rascal, made you suffer a loss just now. "
Gu Chen teased.
Only then did everyone remember that the honey badger demon king's strength was indeed extraordinary.
"What did you mean by what you just said?" The Grand Priest asked.
"I said, the Armament Armory isn't in Huangfu Wuji's hands!"
Gu Chen's eyes lit up.
"Where is it? Don't tell me you have it? " The White Tiger Demon Sage sneered. Even the Honey Badger Demon Sage admitted that the arsenal had fallen into the hands of the Huangfu Clan, so why was his grandson confused?
"That's right, it's in this Gu's hands!"
Gu Chen's figure suddenly changed. He removed his disguise and returned to his original appearance!
"Overlord?"
Many Demon Sages present were shocked when they saw his real body.
Gu Chen's wanted order had spread all over the world. What he had done was too shocking. Even though the Demon Sages of the South Mountains lived in seclusion, they more or less knew what he looked like!
"It's you! Old Flathead, are you allied with the Celestial Court? "
Demon Sage White Tiger immediately understood who he had suffered a loss just now. He had long heard that the Overlord was a genius. He was indeed not simple, and his physical body was not inferior to his!
"Overlord, what do you mean? The Armament Armory is in your hands? "
Even Jiang Buzhuo and the honey badger Demon Sage were shocked. They had seen the people of the Nether God Palace and the Acheron Tower cross the sea of venom with their own eyes. As for the Overlord and his group, they had not seen them since they entered the Armament Armory!
Because they did not see the Overlord at all, they thought he had died in the Armament Armory. It was not until they heard about the ascension ceremony that they knew he was still alive.
"Wait, Huangfu De died in your hands. Could it be …"
Jiang Buzhuo suddenly remembered that Huangfu De's head was given to Huangfu Wuji as a gift by the Overlord during the ascension ceremony. His eyes suddenly lit up.
Huangfu De should have left the Armament Armory not long ago, and he was killed by the Overlord. Could it be …
"You're right. Although Huangfu De obtained the Armament Armory, he was killed by me as soon as he left. The Armament Armory also fell into my hands."
Gu Chen said expressionlessly.
This was a lie. He had obtained the Armament Armory in Baijing's body. Poor Huangfu De had not even touched a weapon.
However, it was not appropriate to say this directly. After all, he had infiltrated the Nether God Palace's team and watched Jiang Buzhuo and the honey badger Demon Sage being plotted against.
From a certain point of view, Gu Chen had also used the two of them. It was best not to talk about this in detail.
"Is what you said true?"
The Nanling Demon Sages' breathing became rapid. They looked at Gu Chen with burning eyes.
Gu Chen knew that it was not good to reveal that the Armament Armory was in his hands. However, he had to say it in order to cooperate with the Nanling Demon Race.
"Of course. How else do you think I killed so many people from the Huangfu Family and destroyed their palace during the ascension ceremony?"
Gu Chen sneered confidently.
When he said this, everyone immediately recalled what had happened during the coronation ceremony. So it turned out that the Armament Armory had played a part in it!
"That's great. You're here to hand over the Armament Armory to the demon race, right? Don't worry. As long as you hand the Armament Armory to us, we'll definitely make good use of it to deal with Huangfu Wuji! "
The Demon Sages said excitedly.
Gu Chen shook his head slowly. "No, I'm here to seek cooperation. I won't give you the Armament Armory. I'll only provide you with weapons under suitable conditions. "
Gu Chen's resolute words made the Demon Sages' faces darken.
"Cooperation?"
The White Tiger Demon Sage sneered. "Overlord, forgive me for being straightforward. Although what you did during Huangfu Wuji's ascension ceremony was admirable, what right do you have to cooperate with us? Your Celestial Court has already been destroyed. What can you do to help us? "
"The only thing you can do is to hand over the Armament Armory to us. With our strength and the help of weapons, we can help you take revenge for the destruction of the Celestial Court!"
The White Tiger Demon Sage's words were not pleasant to hear, but they were the truth. The entire continent knew that the Celestial Court had already been destroyed. Gu Chen, the Daoist, was now alone!
The Demon Sages looked at Gu Chen. Many of their eyes flickered as they speculated.
Since the Overlord was here, was the treasure in the Armament Armory with him?
Several Demon Sages took a few steps forward tacitly and vaguely locked onto Gu Chen, blocking any possible escape route for him.
Gu Chen sensed something and sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, even if he had some friendship with Sun Jinming, the Demon Sages of the Southern Mountains would not care about his feelings when it came to the reproduction of the race.
