I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 169 - 1: Slaying the He Clan and Defying Dong Zhuo, the Gu Clan’s Hidden Dragon Emerges_4

Chapter 169: Chapter 1: Slaying the He Clan and Defying Dong Zhuo, the Gu Clan’s Hidden Dragon Emerges_4

Especially when they heard that it was the Gu Clan’s youths charging into the fray, the entire populace of Luoyang was stunned.

To the common people, the Gu Clan’s descendants naturally held a favorable impression.

The impact of all this on them was simply too overwhelming.

He Jin causing chaos in the country?

What on earth does this mean?

This chaos was truly shocking to everyone, making the hearts that were already grieving over Gu Xi’s death immediately plunge into turmoil.

But when He Jin heard the news, he laughed.

"Hahaha!"

"I was troubled about how to eradicate them, and these kids from the Gu Clan have given me such a good excuse."

He was genuinely confident now.

Especially considering the overwhelming advantage in troops against the Gu Clan’s children, he was even more satisfied.

He immediately commanded his men to don armor.

And with the order of the Grand General, he personally led the troops to suppress the rebellion.

All the guards were somewhat bewildered by this sudden chaos.

But the reality was right before them, leaving them no choice but to engage in battle.

The Champion Marquis Mansion was already close to the Imperial Palace.

Both sides began their slaughter near the palace walls.

Those who Gu Xi had brought to Luoyang were naturally elite.

Especially after unleashing their bloodlust, their combat strength only rose continuously.

—The key point was that they had already put life and death aside.

This was destined to be a particularly bloody battle.

In such a situation, neither side needed any strategy, only real, brutal combat.

And it was at times like these that the strength card came into play.

According to Gu Yi’s observation, the strength card at least doubled Gu Chen’s power.

In this battle, he had essentially become a god of war.

With almost every swing of his spear, someone would fall.

"Hyah!"

When He Jin arrived with his troops, the battlefield was already littered with corpses.

He shouted angrily, glaring at several Gu Clan children at the forefront, and scolded, "Why does the Gu Clan rebel?"

"Ha."

Gu Chen sneered disdainfully, pointing his spear straight at He Jin, and cursed, "He Jin, you pig butcher, how dare you bring chaos to the country and insult my Gu Clan?"

"You brat!"

He Jin’s face immediately turned furious; he resented being called a butcher the most, and he immediately waved his hand, commanding, "The Gu Clan rebels!"

"Capture them all, no mercy!"

Gu Chen seemed unfazed as he coldly stared at He Jin, "Who’s really causing chaos in the country!"

"He Jin!"

"Today, even if I die, I will take your life!"

With that, he charged again towards the enemy forces.

He directly seized a warhorse and rampaged even more wildly among the enemy troops.

Gu Yi could clearly feel it.

Gu Chen’s strength was increasing with the battle, which truly surprised him.

Could the enhancement from the breakthrough card require true life-and-death tempering to become more refined?

Gu Chen had never been on the battlefield.

Because he had lagged behind others since childhood.

The family had never given up on educating him, but they would not burden him with heavy responsibilities.

Could this be the fundamental reason Gu Chen’s attributes hadn’t explosively increased?

Gu Yi’s heart couldn’t help but race.

If this were true, he absolutely must protect Gu Chen at all costs.

This was a perfect candidate to manipulate in chaotic times!

A person without attribute limits could do things in this chaotic world far beyond his original imagination!

The battle grew increasingly fierce. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Gu Chen and others naturally wouldn’t completely abandon everything in desperation.

He constantly proclaimed the crimes of He Jin in a loud voice.

He even revealed how Empress Dowager He was tricked into opening the city gates of Eight Passes, letting Dong Zhuo into Henei.

Under such circumstances, the morale of the entire guard force gradually declined.

This wasn’t merely due to doubt.

It was also because Gu Chen was too terrifying.

He Jin had long summoned archers, but they still failed to shoot Gu Chen down.

With such a god-like figure present, it naturally affected the morale of the guards, not to mention Gu Chen exposing so many sins.

Gu Xi’s influence was too great.

So great that it made many think that if all this were true...

Helping the murderer against the Gu Clan’s children, would they suffer heavenly retribution?

Superstitions and omens were the grand killers of this era.

When doubt sprouted in people’s hearts, they couldn’t fight with full force.

And Gu Chen only fought more fiercely.

His blood-red eyes and the blood covering his entire body made him inexplicably terrifying.

He charged straight towards He Jin on horseback!

In He Jin’s terrified eyes, one thrust pierced He Jin’s chest directly!

—the situation reversed!

"You are the army of the Great Han!"

"He Jin caused chaos in the country and has already been executed. Do you intend to continue erring?"

Gu Chen swept He Jin’s corpse down from the horse, looking at the guards whose expressions had greatly changed, and shouted fiercely.

Silence!

Deathly silence.

Everything happened too quickly.

He Jin was just dead like that?

The battle ceased instantly, and the guards stood back, not advancing further.

Gu Chen didn’t hesitate in the slightest, immediately saying again, "Whoever is the Han Army, follow me forward."

"Purge the treacherous regime to support the state."

The prestige of the Gu Clan over several generations in the Great Han proved immensely useful at this moment!

The guards surprisingly obeyed Gu Chen.

They followed him straight to the Imperial Palace to kill!

Gu Yi had been watching all along, and his expression became more and more excited.

As for He Jin’s death, he wasn’t surprised in the slightest.

He Jin, a man easily self-satisfied,

in the original history,

had a massive advantage at the time, yet still met his end at the hands of eunuchs.

Underestimating the Gu Clan’s scions had sealed his fate.
