"What?!"
At this moment, hearing that Gu Chen had not only annihilated those Holy Sons in a single battle, safeguarding the Nine Provinces and crushing the aspirations of the Upper Realms, but had also destroyed the three great holy lands, both Ji Yuan and Qin Wu were stunned.
"Are these words true?!"
Ji Yuan sprang to his feet, his body trembling and his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Gu Chen, struggling to complete his sentences.
At this moment, in the imperial study, there were other ministers present, discussing state affairs when Gu Chen suddenly appeared, giving them a fright.
These ministers were also witnessing Ji Yuan's public loss of composure for the first time and went silent as cicadas in winter, turning their heads away as if they hadn't seen anything.
Meanwhile, in their hearts, a storm surged because of Gu Chen's words.
They all understood clearly what this truly meant.
"It's true."
