"You think anything good could come out of that mouth of yours? You merely want to threaten me into handing over Cheng Yu, then make me kneel and be your dog." Zhang Chen scoffed at Gu Mingyue's words and deliberately mocked him.
Gu Mingyue hurriedly shook his head. "Not so! Cheng Yu's matter is ultimately an internal affair of our Yellow Heaven Dao. But the Demon Race has already set up a grand formation outside, intending to refine us all to death."
Gu Mingyue did not dare ramble. This was not the time for rambling, so he directly recounted everything.
Zhang Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this. "You were fighting me tooth and nail earlier, yet now you've turned around and want to cooperate with me? Do you think I would set aside the grudges between us and work with you?"
"Zhang Chen, you must put the greater picture first. United, we both benefit; divided, the Demon Race will pick us off one by one. Otherwise, we will all end up refined to death within Jinling City. Let us set aside the grudges between us for now. Staying alive is the greatest goal." Gu Mingyue grew anxious upon hearing Zhang Chen's words, thinking Zhang Chen was young and lacked a sense of the bigger picture, unwilling to cooperate with him.
Zhang Chen sized Gu Mingyue up and down. Only after a brief moment of thought did he say, "You can cooperate with me, but there is one matter you must agree to."
He had originally intended to borrow the strength of Yellow Heaven Dao's experts to open the Innate Water God Great Array.
Most crucially, escaping Jinling City himself would not be difficult, but if Chen Ping, Zhou Qiucheng, and the others wanted to escape, they would need someone's cooperation.
