Chapter 429

Gu Chen didn't explain much and just smiled. "If Zong Ziyu wants to be the second Celestial Emperor, the others will support him, and I won't oppose it."

Killing God Rose looked at Gu Chen mockingly. "You're not interested in the position of Celestial Emperor?"

"Compared to a title, the unity of the Celestial Court is more important. As long as the new Celestial Emperor is pro-war and willing to ally with me, it's fine. "

Gu Chen said indifferently.

This was his true thought. The Celestial Court was a huge organization. If there was someone who could unite all the internal forces better than him, why not?

"That won't do. We've been busy for so long. If Zong Ziyu becomes the second Celestial Emperor, who knows if he'll be reliable? It's useless even if you don't want to be the second Celestial Emperor. We've been helping you build momentum these days. "

"Build momentum?" Gu Chen raised his eyebrows.

"That's right. Why do you think Jiang Daozi didn't come? He's been busy with the assassins of the Celestial Court, hoping to get their support for you. "Killing God Rose explained.

"Brother Jiang is really thoughtful."

Gu Chen's eyes rippled. Jiang Yige was also one of the four Daozi, but he supported him to become the second Celestial Emperor. This kind of breadth of mind and magnanimity was rare.

"We all believe that you're the most suitable candidate, so don't say anything about not wanting the position. Just fight for it with all your might!"

Gu Chen nodded, his eyes filled with determination. In that case, he would do his best.

As they spoke, they arrived at the entrance of the Gate of Heaven of the Linhai Prefecture Division. They put away the Sky Patrol Warship and went in.

After a moment of dizziness, Gu Chen and the others appeared in the Secret Realm of the Linhai Prefecture Division.

The layout of this Linhai Prefecture Division was slightly different from the other divisions. After all, it was an old division that was said to have existed thousands of years ago.

This place was originally abandoned, and few people within the Celestial Court knew about it. That was why it was preserved after the fall of the Celestial Court and was not discovered by the assassins of the Underworld God Palace.

As soon as Gu Chen and the others stepped into the division, countless eyes were cast on them.

Some were surprised, some were hostile, some were respectful, and some were indifferent. The attitudes of the former subordinates were all different.

With Gu Chen in the lead, the group walked over calmly and finally stopped in front of the old subordinates of the various factions.

Vermillion Bird, Curly Sickle, True Illusion, and Thousand Hands were all present. Zong Ziyu, Xun Xi, and Jiang Yige, the three Daoists, also looked at Gu Chen.

Jiang Yige immediately walked over to greet them with a smile, but the others were not so friendly.

"Tyrant, you sure have a lot of face. You made us wait for so many days."

The Thousand-Hand Killing God, who had never met Gu Chen, spoke first and coldly snorted.

"Tyrant, what you've done in the Middle Earth has been too reckless. Although you've resolved the hatred temporarily, you've made it even more difficult for the old subordinates of the Celestial Court."

The Vermillion Bird Killing God spoke up as well, his tone filled with accusation.

Gu Chen had done such a shocking thing during Huangfu Wuji's ascension ceremony, and the Celestial Court had a mixed opinion of him.

A portion of them acknowledged Gu Chen and felt that he was extremely courageous. They admired him and worshiped him like a god.

However, a portion of them were dissatisfied because of this and felt that Gu Chen had made their situation even more dangerous.

In fact, this was indeed the case. Ever since Gu Chen declared war on Huangfu Wuji during his ascension ceremony and issued the Heavenly Execution Order, the Netherworld God Palace had obviously put in more effort to encircle and annihilate the remaining assassins of the Celestial Court.

Many assassins suffered greatly because of this and naturally complained about Gu Chen's impulsive actions.

At this moment, Gu Chen had arrived so many days late that he was viewed as an enemy by more than half of the people.

"Tyrant, what qualifications do you have to issue the Heavenly Execution Order on behalf of the Celestial Thearch?"

Killing God Curled Scythe was even more direct. "You're just a Daoist and you don't have the right to do so. Because of you, we've gotten into a lot of trouble and it's even harder to hide. You have to apologize to us for this!"

Gu Chen listened to the Killing God's accusation and only smiled calmly. "Isn't that better? Since it's not easy to hide, then choose to fight. Only by fighting can one survive. What's the point of dragging out an ignoble existence? "

His words were extremely harsh and instantly angered the Vermillion Bird Killing God and Killing God Curled Scythe.

"Tyrant, don't be too presumptuous! Qinglin is already gone, and no one can protect you anymore! "

Gu Chen's eyes turned cold when he heard this.

"Hmph, do you think I don't exist?"

Killing God Rosette was instantly enraged when she heard this and stood out from behind Gu Chen.

Before Qinglin passed away, he entrusted Gu Chen to her, so she was his Dao Protector now. How could she allow him to be threatened by two killing gods?

Elder Nan Gong's eyes also turned cold when he heard this. He was Gu Chen's earliest Dao Protector. When he heard this, he also took a step forward and revealed the aura of a Sage.

When the two Sages revealed their cultivation at the same time, the faces of Vermillion Bird and Killing God Curled Scythe changed.

Forget about Rosette, they had already expected it, but who was the other Sage?

Was he also the Killing God of the Celestial Court?

As there were a few Killing Gods in the Celestial Court that they had never seen before, they did not suspect Nan Gong Zheng's identity.

Seeing that there were two Killing Gods by Gu Chen's side, Daoist Zong Ziyu's expression turned solemn.

He knew that Jiang Yige was helping the Tyrant to recruit people in an attempt to make him the new Celestial Emperor.

Because of this, he directly regarded the Tyrant as a formidable enemy. After all, the Tyrant's reputation in the mainland was far greater than his, and what he did at the coronation ceremony had given him extraordinary prestige.

The situation was already somewhat disadvantageous to him, and now that Gu Chen was accompanied by two Killing Gods, he felt that the situation was not good.

"Tyrant, although the Celestial Court's internal rules state that Daoists and Killing Gods are on the same level, we should still respect our elders."

Zong Ziyu took the initiative to speak. At this time, he chose to share the hatred of the Seclusion Faction.

"Tyrant, Vermillion Bird and Curled Scythe have made great contributions to the Celestial Court, how can a little kid like you criticize them so casually?"

The Thousand-Hand Killing God also spoke. He was Zong Ziyu's Dao Protector, and naturally knew the benefits of suppressing Gu Chen at this time.

The pro-war faction and the Seclusion Faction were actually in the same boat, accusing Gu Chen together. No matter how stupid they were, the others could also see the sensitivity of the situation.

Xun Xi and Killing God Huan Zhen remained silent, maintaining their neutrality, while many of the Celestial Court killers gathered here began to whisper.

Facing the joint accusation of two factions, how would the Tyrant respond?

"Today we're here to discuss things, not to quarrel!"

Killing God Rosette saw that the situation was not favorable to Gu Chen, and was afraid that he would suffer a loss, so he quickly said.

"Heh, then let the Tyrant apologize first. After he apologizes, we can discuss properly."

Killing God Curled Scythe sneered. Gu Chen's words just now had provoked them.

"Senior Rosette, you're wrong."

At this time, Gu Chen suddenly spoke.

"Ah?" Killing God Rosette was stunned, did he say something wrong just now?

"Everyone."

Gu Chen's cold gaze swept across the Killing Gods and Daoists. "I'm not here to quarrel today, I'm here to fight!"
