God of Pets

Chapter 188 Talent
No need to guess, Chen Guan also knew who this man was.

Xiu Jieming is the most promising young leader of the Xiu family. Although he is not as famous as Jiang Qiemo, that is because he comes from a military family, which is somewhat different from the young masters of wealthy aristocratic families.

A true military family will not show off their own martial arts. Being able to lead the team to victory is their most worthy honor, and personal martial arts is secondary.

"You guys go and prepare first, we will go up the mountain in two days." Xiu Jieming asked everyone to leave, leaving only Chen Guan standing there and Xiu Yingmei standing beside him.

After everyone left the main tent, Xiu Jieming looked at Chen Guan and asked, "Are you Chen Guan?"

"Commander, my name is Chen Guan." Chen Guan answered according to military etiquette.

"Okay, then go to hell." Xiu Jieming disagreed and directly pulled out the knife beside him and slashed at Chen Guan. The knife was as fast as thunder and lightning.

"Brother..." Xiu Yingmei's expression changed drastically. She suddenly jumped up and drew out the Mandarin Duck Dragon and Phoenix Sword to block Xiu Jieming's sword.

But what she blocked was just an illusion. When she looked at Xiu Jieming again, she saw that the knife in Xiu Jieming's hand had already been sheathed and placed on the table.

Xiu Yingmei's face flushed immediately: "Brother, I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just wanted to tell you after I had some results."

"That's why I didn't point it out before. It's great that you want to do something." Xiu Jieming said in a doting tone, without any intention of blaming Xiu Yingmei. He then continued, "But now the plan has changed. Ji Nanhong has been confined by the commander and won't be coming. You can't hide your affairs from me, and you can't hide them from Lord Ji either."

Xiu Jieming then looked at Chen Guan again, completely free of the oppressive feeling he had felt before. He spoke very kindly, "I've heard all about you. You withstood the demonic Jingfeng sword energy and defeated Haofeng. You defeated Jiang Qiemo with a single blow. You have such talent and ability. Fortunately, Xiaomei brought you to our Xiu family. This is a blessing for our Xiu family and for Xiu Jieming as well."

"Commander, you are praising me too much. I am just lucky." Chen Guan said.

"Very good. You are neither humble nor arrogant, and you are not surprised by praise or criticism. You are even better than I thought. Such talents should not be wasted on boring things, and they should not waste their time on such trivial things."

Xiu Jieming looked at Chen Guan and smiled, "Now that this matter is over, I will help you awaken a second time with your peerless secret spirit. If you're willing, I'll have you serve as my deputy in my corps. After a couple of years, when you've gained experience, you'll be able to lead the corps independently and become my right-hand man."

"I am willing to serve you like a dog and a horse." Chen Guan saluted again hurriedly, his face full of excitement, as if he was willing to die for his friend.

"Xiaomei, take Aguan to rest first. He has worked hard on the way here. Let him live in the right first room." Xiu Jieming said.

"That won't do. The one on the right is where you rest, big brother." Xiu Yingmei said quickly.

"Commander, this is not appropriate. Just find me a place." Chen Guan also spoke quickly.

"Talented people should be respected. You deserve this because you're capable. People with ability deserve the treatment they deserve." Xiu Jieming waved his hand to interrupt Xiu Yingmei and Chen Guan, who were about to say more. He waved his hand to signal them to stop and said, "Go ahead."

"This Xiu Jieming... is quite something..." Chen Guan thought to himself as he followed Xiu Yingmei out of the main tent.

Xiu Yingmei brought Chen Guan to a tent which was well-equipped but not luxurious. She sat down and looked at Chen Guan with her cheek in her hand. She looked at him for a long time without saying a word.

"What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?" Chen Guan also sat down, holding his cheek and looking at Xiu Yingmei and asked.

Xiu Yingmei curled her lips and said, "I looked left and right for a long time, but I didn't see that you are as good as my eldest brother said." "If I weren't good, why would you be so anxious to save me?" Chen Guan said.

"Bah, who's anxious? I just think you're still useful and don't want you to die." Xiu Yingmei spat and said.

"Okay." Chen Guan shrugged and asked, "What are we doing here?"

"Exploring Cuiyun Mountain." Xiu Yingmei felt there was no need to hide it, as everyone here knew it.

"Cuiyun Mountain is a place you can't go to. It's extremely dangerous. Few people who go in there can come out alive." Chen Guan pretended to be surprised.

"Since we dare to go, we naturally have a way to keep you alive. You don't have to worry so much." Xiu Yingmei looked at Chen Guan and said, "I was already a little surprised that you were able to defeat Hao Feng. I didn't expect you to be able to stab Jiang Qiemo unconscious with a single sword strike. Although it seems a bit tricky, it's still quite impressive."

"It's just luck." Chen Guan said.

"Good luck? So you are lucky to be able to use Juetian Weiwo?" Xiu Yingmei said, staring at Chen Guan with a smile.

"What do you mean I am the only one in the world?" Chen Guan pretended to be stupid.

Xiu Yingmei's expression turned cold. "Are you still playing dumb with me? Do you really think I can't handle you?"

"Are you talking about the state you have used? I just saw you use it, so I imitated and learned it. I really didn't steal your skills, and I don't even know what it is called." Chen Guan explained.

Xiu Yingmei was even more surprised and suspicious after hearing this. Chen Guan had only seen her use Juetian Weiwo once, yet she was able to learn it. What kind of talent was this?
She had comprehended the ultimate being, but she herself had never been able to use it again.

If Chen Guan really learned it after just watching it once, then his talent and ability would be truly extraordinary.

"Let me see you use it again. I want to see if you practiced it correctly." Xiu Yingmei said casually.

Chen Guan naturally knew what she was planning, but he didn't point it out. He pretended not to know and directly entered the state of absolute self-centeredness.

As the founder of Juetian Weiwo, Xiu Yingmei immediately sensed the changes in Chen Guanshen and was shocked beyond words.

"It's really Juetian Weiwo... He actually learned it... and can control it freely..." Xiu Yingmei looked at Chen Guan, her eyes became extremely complicated.

"Big brother is right. A genius like him should not do those shady things. He should stand in the sun, bloom his brilliance and display his talent. Such a person is destined to be extraordinary." Xiu Yingmei's eyes gradually softened. It was the first time she felt that there were men of the younger generation who were no less talented than Xiu Jieming.

But Xiu Yingmei was a little panicked inside. She knew Xiu Jieming's habits. The more Xiu Jieming valued Chen Guan, the more likely Chen Guan was to die.

Most people cannot sense Xiu Jieming’s murderous intent towards Chen Guan. Xiu Yingmei grew up with Xiu Jieming and she knows him too well.
