Chapter 412

"Humph! Boy, don't boast shamelessly. Our Stone tribe has never faced a disaster. Even if there was, what can you do to help? "

"Chase the humans out, I feel uncomfortable when I see them!"

Although the Stone Clan was xenophobic, for some reason, Gu Chen felt that they hated the human race even more than they did in the past.

Shi Cangfeng raised his hand to signal for the angry elders to quiet down. He looked at Gu Chen with narrowed eyes.

"Tell me, our Stone tribe is content with Western Desert's natural defenses as a barrier, where would we face a disaster?"

Gu Chen did not feel afraid because of the angry gazes around him. He spoke the words he had prepared long ago.

"Western Desert has natural defenses, but it also has boundless mineral resources. The benefits will drive the new emperor of Middle Plains to attack the nobles!"

Gu Chen looked at the surrounding Stone people and raised his voice.

"I believe everyone has heard that Huangfu Wuji, who has just ascended to the throne, intends to conquer the four regions and unify them for the first time in history. Think about it, if he wants to attack the four foreign races, where will he attack first? "

Gu Chen's words caused many elders of the Stone clan to fall into deep thought.

He strolled around the hall, walking past the elders of the Stone Clan.

"The Eastern Wasteland's ghoul race has been in decline for many years. Eastern Wasteland is actually a pile of loose sand. It is very easy to unify them, so Huangfu Wuji does not need to expend too many troops on the eastern battlefront.

"The Southern Mountains Yao race is extremely powerful, they will be greatly weakened if they want to fight, so Middle Plains' first target will not be the south. This way, only Northern Plains and Western Desert are left.

"Western Desert Stone tribe and Northern Plains' demonic humans are about the same in strength. Northern Plains is cold while Western Desert is hot. Logically, the natural defenses on both sides are about the same. But Western Desert is vast and sparsely populated, it has abundant mineral resources, which Northern Plains cannot compare to. "

"If I were Huangfu Wuji, or any normal person in their right mind, they would choose to take down Western Desert first. With Western Desert's mineral resources, even if they do not immediately attack other regions, Middle Plains' army will have a guarantee of weapons, and their strength will greatly increase. "

Gu Chen's eloquence flowed like a river. His words were reasonable, making the Stone Clan elders look at each other in dismay.

Even his companions behind him were greatly surprised. Normally, Gu Chen was not a sharp-tongued person. They did not expect him to be able to hit the nail on the head.

His words made all of the Stone Clan members who had just made a ruckus become silent. Even though Stone Clan's intelligence was relatively low, everyone here was at the elder level, so how could their intelligence be lacking? How could they not understand how terrible the situation was?

"What you said makes some sense, but what then? Did you come here just to tell us about this? "

Shi Cangfeng sat up straighter, clearly interested in what Gu Chen had said.

At first, he only thought that the other party was a young brat, but seeing that the other party had an extraordinary way of talking, he curbed his contempt.

"I'm here to seek an alliance with your clan. With our combined strength, we can fight against Huangfu Wuji!"

Gu Chen revealed the purpose of his visit.

Hearing this, the Stone Clan's elders were all fired up. "Ally with you? Aren't you a human too? "

"Humans can't be trusted! Look at what they did to the young master. In their eyes, our Stone Clan is only a third-class race! Cooperating with them is like asking a tiger for its skin! "

Many elders objected, and their resolute attitudes made Gu Chen feel that things were not going well.

"You may not know this, but although the Celestial Court is rumored to have been destroyed, our Celestial Court still has our fighting strength. Also, the military strength I have is definitely beyond your imagination. We have a chance of winning this battle. "

Gu Chen quickly emphasized.

The surrounding Stone Clan's elders were still adamant in their opposition.

"Senior, what do you think …"

Gu Chen could only look at Shi Cangfeng. The Stone Clan possessed absolute power because of the Saint Bloodline. As long as Shi Cangfeng, the clan leader, did not object, then there was room for discussion.

"Overlord, I'm afraid you haven't figured out the crux of the problem."

Shi Cangfeng's eyes flickered. "The crux of the problem isn't how many military strength you have, but how high the chance of winning is."

Behind Gu Chen, the Ghost King and the eight women exchanged glances. The most important thing in a war was the chance of winning. Without talking about the chance of winning, what did the Stone Clan Leader mean?

"How about this, I won't say anything. I'll have my son come out and talk to you. As long as he is willing to ally with you, I believe the Stone Clan won't object. "

Shi Cangfeng thought about it and said.

Gu Chen's face brightened. He knew Shi Jian well. Compared to the other Stone Clan members, he was more confident in convincing him!

"Alright, thank you, senior. I haven't seen Brother Shi in a long time and I miss him." Gu Chen said.

Therefore, Shi Cangfeng quickly ordered someone to call Shi Jian over. Not long after, he arrived at the palace.

Seeing Shi Jian again, his body was much thinner than before. There was also a faint coldness on his face.

Gu Chen saw him and smiled. Just as he was about to greet his old friend, Shi Jian coldly spoke.

"Gu Chen, I know why you are here. The Stone Clan of Western Desert will not ally with anyone. Leave!"

He directly refused Gu Chen as soon as he spoke.

"Brother Shi …"

Gu Chen was shocked. The current Shi Jian gave him a different feeling than before. There was no smile, no gentleness.

"There is no need to say anything. Leave. If you don't, I will order people to capture you and send you to the Middle Earth!"

Shi Jian's eyes flashed with coldness.

As soon as he spoke, countless elders of the Stone Clan responded.

"That's right! There is no need to be polite with the humans. Talking to them is meaningless! "

"There is no need to send him to the Middle Earth. That would just be taking advantage of Huangfu Wuji. Just bury him in the desert!"

Everyone in the palace was excited. Gu Chen's group acted as if they were facing a great enemy, fearing that they would be surrounded by the Stone Clan.

"Still not leaving?"

Shi Jian's expression darkened.

Gu Chen wanted to say something more, but seeing Shi Jian's expression, he knew that it was impossible to convince him.

"I understand."

Gu Chen took a deep breath, turned around, and left with the others.

Shi Jian watched him leave expressionlessly, while Shi Cangfeng, who was sitting on the throne, sighed inwardly.

After everyone left the cave and went to a place with no one around, Zhao Rou and others felt injustice for Gu Chen.

"That young master of the Stone Clan has crossed the line. He is good friends with the Clan Leader. I didn't think it would be like this!"

"The Clan Leader went through so much to get here. Even if he refused, he didn't have to be so heartless."

The girls' chests were heaving from anger. Even the Ghost King sighed heavily.

"I didn't think we would get off to a bad start. We can't even use Gu Daozi's connections. It seems like the alliance with the Stone Clan is impossible now."

Gu Chen didn't speak. He was thinking about what he saw and heard in the palace.

This time, Shi Jian was a completely different person. And the reaction of the Stone Clan's elders was too intense.

He wasn't angry at Shi Jian, nor did he feel like he was merciless. Because if he was merciless, there was no way he would let him go.
