God of Pets

Chapter 218 Eight Kings

When Chen Guan boarded the boat, he had already made plans for the worst, so he was not panicking now.

If it were someone else, he would definitely not get on the boat, but Xiao Qinghua was different from others. Chen Guan would be worried if he didn't come to see her.

"It's okay if I can't get off the boat." Chen Guanben was a little worried, but now he doesn't have to worry anymore.

Lord Ling should still have a good reputation. After so many years of welcoming and seeing off people, everyone who came out only said that the gambling game was dangerous, but no one said that the Eighth King was cheating. It can be seen that Secret Spirit is also honest and can come out as long as he wins the gambling game.

Even if they cannot win, at most they will be left behind. These crew members should be the human practitioners who lost the bet.

When he got into the cabin, he saw twenty or thirty men and women in the cabin, some in groups of two or three, and some alone. Most of them could not be seen, and the few who showed their faces were not recognized by Chen Guan.

The two found a place to sit down, and soon heard the sound of chains, which should be the time to raise anchor and set off.

Sure enough, the ship started moving soon, and almost at the same time, the cabin door closed automatically.

Inside the boat, one could hear the sound of waves hitting the hull outside. The large ship with three sails turned its bow and actually sailed upstream against the roaring Yellow Springs River.

I don’t know what kind of power this boat uses, but it is very fast and the sound of it hitting the river water is very loud.

But after a while, everyone only felt the bow of the ship sink, and then the sound of the hull hitting the waves quickly became smaller and then disappeared.

The boat was strangely quiet. Xiao Qinghua whispered to Chen Guan, "Could this boat have sunk into the water?"

"It's okay, don't worry, I'm here for you." Chen Guan smiled and comforted Xiao Qinghua, but his heart felt heavy. "Could the Eight Great Kings' secret lair be underwater? That's a bit difficult. The One-Winter Step I just learned is useless underwater. If something really happens, I can only use the Pure Yang Sword Immortal."

The boat was sailing very steadily underwater. I could hardly feel it moving and I had no idea whether it was going fast or slow.

Everyone started talking again. When Chen Guan and Xiao Qinghua were talking, a man wearing a hat and a mask walked over. Seeing Chen Guan looking at him warily, the man took off his mask, let Chen Guan take a look at his face, and then put it back on.

Chen Guan was a little surprised that this man was Leng Zhe from the reserve team.

Chen Guan had a very deep impression of Leng Zhe. In the reserve team, only Leng Zhe could compare with the goal team in terms of command ability.

You should know that Mendu's talent was inspired by Chen Guan, but Leng Zhe was able to be on par with Mendu, which shows that his talent is actually better than Mendu's.

Moreover, in that battle, after Xiu Haofeng was defeated, Leng Zhe's on-the-spot reaction almost saved his team. Unfortunately, he met Chen Guancai and failed.

Chen Guan remembered that the team had mentioned Leng Zhe. His ancestors for generations were commanders in the Heavenly Court Army, and the highest position they had reached was the Grand Commander. Although he is a little down and out now, there are still people in his family who are in charge of a corps, so he is considered a middle-level person.

Besides, Leng Zhe followed Xiu Haofeng, so he should have no shortage of opportunities and resources. Why would he come here to gamble his luck? This doesn't seem like something he would do.

Leng Zhe saw the doubt in Chen Guan's heart and explained in a low voice: "I left Xiu Haofeng."

"Why?" Chen Guan didn't quite understand. The Xiu family was now considered the most powerful force in the Heavenly Court Army, and he had chosen to leave Xiu Haofeng. This was truly puzzling. "I only like to command, not be commanded. Now that Xiu Haofeng has Shi Zhimen, he no longer needs me," Leng Zhe said indifferently.

Chen Guan then realized that Leng Zhe was being neglected by Xiu Haofeng. The team that had defeated Leng Zhe in command ability had become the new upstart around Xiu Haofeng.

There are only so many resources, and if they are given to the team, they naturally cannot be given to Leng Zhe. People like Leng Zhe will not willingly sit in the second seat, so it is understandable that he left Xiu Haofeng.

"Did Xiu Haofeng make things difficult for you?" Chen Guan asked.

"Not really. I just don't want to follow him anymore. My family is still a branch of the Xiu family, so he won't make things difficult for me." Leng Zhe paused and said, "I came here to help my family move forward, but I'm lacking something myself, so I want to make a wish to the Eighth King."

"Isn't this a gambling game here at the Eighth King? How did it become a wish-making game?" Chen Guan asked in a daze.

"It seems that you don't know much about the Eighth King. He did set up a gambling game, but you can make a wish for the prize. I just need to win the gambling game and I can get what I want." Leng Zhe explained.

"Make a wish, and if you win, you can get what you want. Could it be that the Eighth King is a god in heaven? Whatever you wish for can come true?" Chen Guancai didn't believe that a secret spirit in a blessed land could have such supernatural powers.

"It's certainly hard to believe, but according to those who won the bet, the Eight Kings always granted their wishes, whether they were seeking treasures, secret techniques, secret methods, pets, or even some kind of rare treasure. I've never heard of them disappointing anyone who won a bet."

Leng Zhe seemed to know that Chen Guan didn't believe him, so he continued, "My ancestors participated in gambling with Commander Chu Nan and got what they wanted. They also became Commander-in-Chief before, but they were not as good as Commander Chu Nan and could not hold on to the position."

"Is there really such a thing?" Chen Guan was surprised. It was hard for him to imagine that a secret spirit from a blessed land could have such great abilities.

The two chatted some more about the Eight Kings, which gave Chen Guan a deeper understanding of the Eight Kings' gambling.

The Eight Great Kings gamble on everything, not just ordinary gambling tools. In fact, very few people use ordinary gambling tools to gamble with the Eight Great Kings, because ordinary gambling tools are too easy for secret spirits and practitioners to cheat.

The gambling methods that the Eighth Kings come up with are different every time, and no one can guess what kind of gambling methods he has prepared.

"Why are you here?" Leng Zhe asked Chen Guan.

"I just want to see it for myself." Chen Guan was indeed a little curious.

Leng Zhe nodded without saying anything else. After an unknown amount of time, he felt the hull suddenly vibrate and then stopped.

The cabin door opened and a crew member came over to lead everyone out of the cabin.

When Chen Guan and the other two came out and took a look, they were immediately shocked by the scene before them.

In front of me is a huge and majestic palace. Outside the palace is a circular water cover. Outside the water cover is water with no end in sight. This place is just like the legendary underwater dragon palace.

However, this palace is not as magnificent as the legendary Dragon Palace. The entire building is black in color, and the plaque on the palace gate is engraved with four large characters "Hall of the Eight Great Kings".
