God of Pets

The sudden upheaval at the Dragon Tiger Mountain Secret Realm, with Pingshan ascending into the void, quickly spread throughout Divine Land.

Such a major event doesn't happen many times a year, so naturally, everyone knew about it.

However, this matter pertains to the Dragon Tiger Mountain Secret Realm and has little to do with other secret realms. Those living in other realms, even if they heard the news, would only casually discuss it without paying much attention.

Many people have lived in the secret realms for years and have long stopped caring about the outside world.

The secret realms are like many different countries, and most people do not need to concern themselves with things happening in other lands.

Until Pingshan vanished into the void, Zhang Chunxiang and Jiang Qiemo did not wait for Chen Guan.

The Zhang Family had sent investigators early on, but they hadn't uncovered anything.

Moreover, the reaction from the Zhang Family's higher-ups seemed a bit odd. The investigators sent only went through the motions, seemingly without any intention of digging deeper.

"Jiang Qiemo, can you tell me who exactly this friend is?" Zhang Chunxiang asked Jiang Qiemo.

"I cannot," Jiang Qiemo directly refused.

"I don't mean any harm, I just feel a bit indebted to him and want to offer some compensation to his family," Zhang Chunxiang quickly said.

In her heart, she indeed felt very guilty. She thought if Chen Guan hadn't exposed himself to save her, perhaps it wouldn't have ended like this.

Knowing the prowess of Fu Tianji, she was certain that Chen Guan could not have survived.

Previously, she held a sliver of hope, but now it seemed certain he was dead.

Zhang Chunxiang's desire to compensate was genuine, but there seemed to be some feelings within her heart that even she didn't understand.

"No need," Jiang Qiemo said lightly, "He isn't dead, and his family doesn't need your compensation."

Zhang Chunxiang sighed and said, "I also hope he's not dead, but as you can see, it's all gone, everything is gone."

"Believe it or not, he won't die, nor does he need your compensation." Jiang Qiemo said, turned, and walked away.

Although he believed strongly that Chen Guan wouldn't die so easily, he still had to report this occurrence back to Ji Nanhong.

"Alas, he isn't an immortal, how could he not die." After watching Jiang Qiemo leave, Zhang Chunxiang gazed once more into the void where everything was gone, her heart filled with some hope, but it felt too unrealistic.

Chen Guan isn't dead now, but it's almost as if he is.

He was desperately fleeing ahead, while Eight-armed Fu Tianji was using the Blood Escape Technique to chase after him relentlessly.

Only by constantly changing directions was Chen Guan able to avoid being caught by Fu Tianji, but he couldn't shake him off at all.

Fu Tianji was like an evil god, using the Blood Escape Technique continuously without the slightest fatigue. This puzzled Chen Guan. Even if he had an undying body, could his blood really not run dry?

Chen Guan wasn't sure if Fu Tianji's blood could run dry.

However, Chen Guan's own primordial energy was nearly exhausted. He hadn't experienced his primordial energy being squeezed to this extent for a long time.

"This won't do," Chen Guan thought, but couldn't come up with a better idea.

The only relief was that after leaving Pingshan, he could recover the Warring States.

"Too bad about those shiitake mushrooms… If only I had some now… I could definitely drain Fu Tianji's blood dry..." Chen Guan knew thinking like this was useless now.

Biting the bullet, Chen Guan descended to the ground. Once his primordial energy was drained, he would be completely powerless, only dying in a more miserable fashion.

Seizing the moment while he still had some primordial energy, he landed to recover; maybe there would still be a chance.

Just as Chen Guan touched down, he heard a loud thud not far behind him.

Turning quickly, he saw Eight-armed Fu Tianji had already landed, his eyes fixed dead on him.

"Fu Tianji, I didn't kill Yang Hu. He just couldn't figure things out and sought death himself, what could I do?" Chen Guan wanted to buy some time to recover his primal energy.

He was still bleeding profusely, and without the transformation of primordial energy into blood, he'd soon meet King Yama.

Fu Tianji stared wordlessly at Chen Guan, but his gaze was chilling; in it, Chen Guan saw a profound hatred.

"Is he thinking about how to kill me? Or rather, killing me alone won't quench his hatred, and he's contemplating how to torment me before he strikes?" Chen Guan thought this might be good, as at least it allowed some time to recover his primordial energy.

This battle had pushed him to the limit, squeezing every bit out of him.

"Actually, we have no enmity. There's no need to fight to the death. Everything can be discussed. You have the undying body, I have the Treasure Basin. We can cooperate..." Chen Guan spoke for a long time, initially just to delay.

But as he spoke, he noticed that Fu Tianji remained motionless, staring at him all the while, yet his body was statue-like, not budging an inch.

"Could it be... that Fu Tianji has become a walking corpse..." At this thought, Chen Guan bit his lip, quickly retreating, trying to use the terrain to escape.

But just as he moved, Fu Tianji sprang into action; the Blood Escape Technique launched once again, and in an instant, he was behind Chen Guan, wildly swinging four Profound Iron Maces and four Purple Gold Gourd Hammers at him.

Chen Guan pushed the One-Night Step and Martial Arts Rhythm to their limits, dodging Fu Tianji's storm-like assault.

Perhaps because he had no primordial energy left, Fu Tianji never used any secret skills, yet even just with the eight Secret Divine Weapons, and his terrifying speed and power, Chen Guan found himself hard-pressed to tackle them.

With four Secret God Purple Profounds embodying him, Fu Tianji's enhancement was truly terrifying.

Chen Guan felt that at the same level, probably no one could be a match for Eight-armed Fu Tianji.

Bit by bit, Chen Guan noticed something off; when he was fast, Fu Tianji was fast too. When he slowed, Fu Tianji's attacks weren't as fierce.

"No way... Could this mean... Fu Tianji has already turned into a zombie..." Chen Guan entertained the thought and tried standing still.

Bang!

A Purple Gold Gourd Hammer crashed directly into Chen Guan's chest, sending him flying backward, fracturing several ribs. Even with the Double Armor defense and Azure Heaven Dominating Body, plus the Martial Arts Body, he couldn't fully block it.

"How foolish of me, how could Fu Tianji have lost his consciousness in such a short time..." Chen Guan was about to get up to halt Fu Tianji's pursuit when he noticed Fu Tianji stood there motionless.

"No way... has he really lost consciousness..." Chen Guan was both startled and overjoyed. He sat there motionless, and Fu Tianji remained stationary.

Not daring to move, Chen Guan sat restoring his own primordial energy. He was covered in injuries, and his energy was nearly drained; it was the most grueling and embarrassing state since he began cultivation.

Luckily, because of the Undying Evil King, Fu Tianji's consciousness encountered an issue; otherwise, whether he'd survive today was a real unknown.

Fu Tianji didn't move, and Chen Guan remained seated, too afraid to rise, fearing he'd provoke Fu Tianji again.

Chen Guan had a vague speculation that while Fu Tianji hadn't completely lost consciousness, there wasn't much left.

His hatred for Chen Guan ran deep; even killing him wouldn't relieve that hatred, so subconsciously, Fu Tianji wished to render Chen Guan unable to live, yet unable to die.

Hence, even with his consciousness impaired, he relentlessly pursued Chen Guan without ending him.
