God of Pets

Chapter 1001 Sorry, I caused you all to misunderstand.

The Emperor smiled slightly: "You don't believe me?"

“No, I believe you,” Chen Guan said.

"My lifelong wish was to unify the world. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, the affairs of the world are no longer my concern. If you cannot wait, you can take control of the world and the Great Qin cavalry now. However, the Sky Realm is not yet stable, so you need to stay here to oversee it." The Emperor Ancestor said calmly to Chen Guan.

Emperor Taizu believed that Chen Guan did not want to be subordinate to anyone, and he also did not want to concern himself with worldly affairs anymore, so passing the throne to Chen Guan was not unreasonable.

The Emperor Ancestor created the First Secret Technique, and he knew its terror better than anyone else. Even if the Qin family still had descendants, he could only pass the throne to Chen Guan, who had mastered the First Secret Technique. Otherwise, if Chen Guan was unwilling, no one could take over the position.

Everyone else thought this was a good thing. Duan Shulin, Bai Xiuyan, and others were happy for Chen Guan, who would now be the true leader of the three clans.

Chen Guan, however, showed no smile. He simply looked at the Emperor Ancestor and said calmly, "Your Majesty, your life's wish was to unify the world, but that is not my life's wish."

The Emperor's smile gradually faded as he looked at Chen Guan and asked, "What is your lifelong wish?"

"Continuously grow stronger and become a unique existence," Chen Guan said calmly.

"So, you're going to take the path that the Netherworld Emperor mentioned?" the Emperor Ancestor asked.

“That’s right,” Chen Guan replied affirmatively.

"Are you willing to take that step at the cost of the entire universe?" the Emperor Ancestor asked again.

"That's right." Chen Guan's answer made everyone's faces turn very ugly.

“Chen Guan…you’re not that kind of person…you can tell me what’s wrong with you…we can solve it together…” Qin Ziyu said.

"Old Chen, you haven't been bewitched by the Netherworld Emperor, have you?" Duan Shulin exclaimed.

“If you take that step, everyone will die, including your relatives and friends,” the Emperor asked Chen Guan with great interest.

"One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers. To gain something, you must make a sacrifice, and some sacrifices are worthwhile." As soon as Chen Guan said this, everyone's face turned very ugly.

"I told you long ago that Chen Guan was no good, but you didn't believe me," one of the merchants shouted.

"Chen Guan, you are too arrogant. With the Emperor here, you can't cause any trouble."

"Old Chen, are you crazy?"

Chen Guan ignored the crowd's words and simply said, "Have you forgotten the Ghost Taoist's prophecy? You should have realized long ago that I am that demon child, the son of the great demon Qingbai."

“I know you are the son of the great demon, but you are definitely not the demon’s offspring,” Qin Ziyu said firmly.

Chen Guan looked at Qin Ziyu and the others with a sly smile: "Sorry, I may have misunderstood you. In order to pursue a higher level and become a stronger version of myself, I can give up everything. Apart from becoming stronger, everything else is just fluff in my eyes."

After saying that, Chen Guan ignored everyone else.

"Brother Guan..." Xiao Qinghua called softly, but Chen Guan did not turn around to look at her.

"Interesting. You are the most interesting person I have ever met in my life." The Emperor was not annoyed by Chen Guan's behavior; instead, his eyes showed appreciation and approval.

"I have considered the step you want to take, but in the end I can't let go. It's not that I can't let go of others, but that I can't let go of myself. This is the empire I built, this is my world. Without these, my existence has no meaning."

The Emperor Ancestor looked at Chen Guan, his eyes gradually growing intense: "I originally thought that the meaning of my life had come to an end, but now, with you, I have rediscovered the meaning of life. If you lose, I will not kill you, but you must promise me that you will become the guardian of this world." "Emperor Ancestor, I am sorry, I cannot give you the same promise, because only when you die can I take that step." Chen Guan activated his secret realm halo, which was only slightly larger than his head and did not cover his entire body like others.

“Your Majesty, my first secret technique was passed down from you. This is a great favor, so I will give you three moves.” Chen Guan said to His Majesty.

"He's gone mad...he's gone mad...Chen Guan must have been under some kind of mental injury spell..." Duan Shulin was dumbfounded, completely unable to believe that this person was the Chen Guan he knew.

Some people had already started cursing: "Who do you think you are, daring to be so arrogant in front of the Emperor Ancestor?"

Xiao Qinghua's face was pale, devoid of any color, and she bit her lip, unable to utter a single word.

The Emperor simply smiled and said, "Very well, then so be it."

Emperor Ancestor raised his right hand and struck Chen Guan with a palm strike in mid-air.

No one understands the secret of the One better than the Emperor Ancestor, and naturally no one understands how to break the secret of the One better than the Emperor Ancestor.

The First Secret Technique devours heaven and earth to form a self-contained entity, with an extremely solid foundation. Ordinary people would never be a match for someone who has mastered the First Secret Technique.

However, Emperor Ancestor was different. He also mastered the First Secret Technique to a high level and even devoured the primordial energy of the Spirit Devouring God and the Netherworld Emperor.

The current Emperor Ancestor is essentially the Son of the Universe, or even the ruler of the universe.

Not only is his own foundation comparable to Chen Guan's, but he also has the power of the entire universe to support him.

If the Netherworld Emperor and the Devouring Spirit God are only half-universe level experts, then the Emperor Ancestor is a true universe level expert.

This palm strike may seem ordinary, but it is empowered by the power of the entire universe. It is meant to suppress Chen Guan and dampen his arrogance.

But it was merely suppression; the Emperor did not intend to kill Chen Guan.

The myriad laws of the universe pressed down heavily on Chen Guan with this palm strike, and the entire starry sky lit up.

Countless starlight shone on Chen Guan like spotlights, and layers of laws intertwined and bound him.

However, this terrifying power did not shake Chen Guan in the slightest, nor did it even make him take action.

The terrifying cosmic power was absorbed into the secret realm halo as it approached Chen Guan, and no matter how much cosmic power it contained, it had no effect on Chen Guan.

The Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly as he realized Chen Guan's difference. His eyes then brightened with delight: "Good, good, good. You both cultivate the same secret technique, yet you have surpassed your teacher. You truly deserve to be my successor."

The aura emanating from the Emperor Ancestor surged, the halo of the secret realm appeared, and at the same time, the True Dragon Treasure also emerged.

"One begets two, two begets three, three begets all things. This is the foundation of the secret method of one. I am the one between heaven and earth. Everything is born from me. Therefore, the secret realm I created is the One Yuan Secret Realm..." The Emperor Ancestor actually began to describe his experience in cultivating the secret method of one.

"If I had listened to the teachings of the Emperor Ancestor earlier, I wouldn't have taken so many detours," Chen Guanting said with a sigh of admiration.

"The greatest meaning of life lies in those detours; only by taking those detours can you see different scenery." The true dragon on the Emperor's body roared and danced, flying towards Chen Guan with the Emperor's voice: "My first secret treasure... the Primordial Ancestral Dragon..."

As the true dragon was flying toward Chen Guan, it split into two, then into three, and so on, until it became infinitely large. It was as if all the laws of the universe had transformed into the body of the true dragon and was devouring Chen Guan.

This strike, which creates all things and breaks all laws, can shake the very foundation of the universe.
