Chapter 968
Situation
The 8th!
No one commented on Gu Lian’s admission. At least, he tried his best in battle, and Jiang Chen had provided him a chance to step down. So, it was the wisest decision to admit his defeat. If he persisted to fight, he would be disdained by the people if he couldn’t see the situation clearly.
“Don’t mention it, Brother Gu.”
Jiang Chen clasped his fists in response to Gu Lian, then turned and looked around, seeing that no one was not looking at him with blazing eyes.
“Brothers of Inner Palace, I, Gu Chen, must first apologize for what happened three days ago,” said Jiang Chen loudly.
“I felt compelled to intervene, and the battle with Gu Lian today; all of these have a single purpose – that is to let everyone on Gu Palace know, that we are one family. We are all surnamed Gu, the blood that flows in our body is the bloodline of the Gu Family. There shouldn’t be any distinction between the Inner and Outer Palace. In order for Gu Palace to stand strong, this internal conflict must be resolved. You should know that the ancestors who created Gu Palace came from the Gu Family in the Pure Land. Even though they had all risen to the Immortal World, I believe that they don’t wish to see a fragmented Gu Palace. The things that I, Gu Chen did, is to let all the geniuses of the Inner Palace see how capable the geniuses of Outer Palace were. None of them would be standing here if they weren’t capable geniuses. You all have no reason to look down upon them because we are all one family. It is very disgraceful for us to feel superior to our own brothers. We should only display our sense of superiority to other people.”
The whole arena had become quiet, as they listened to Jiang Chen’s speech, including Gu Firmament. Every line of word that Jiang Chen spoke touched their hearts. Some geniuses of Inner Palace lowered their heads, feeling a trace of shame.
