God of Pets

Chapter 74 Son of the Secret God
Chen Guan knew that Ji Nanhong's identity must be of great origin, but he still didn't expect that she would be the only daughter of the commander of the Tianting Army. He had also read some information about the Tianting Army a few days ago, but the information that an ordinary person like him could find was limited, and he couldn't find out Ji Nanhong's identity background at all.

"The Heavenly Court Army is not the private property of the Ji family, and the position of army commander is not hereditary. It is a bit too false to say that whoever marries Army Commander Ji's daughter can inherit the Heavenly Court Army." Chen Guan frowned and said.

"Brother, do you know how many years General Ji has been in charge of the Heavenly Court Army? Ever since the Ten Heavenly Kings reorganized the Ancestral Court and established the Heavenly Court Army, the commander of the Heavenly Court Army has been this big boss. Over the past eight hundred years, how many officers in the Heavenly Court Army have been personally trained by General Ji? Can you imagine? Putting aside whether he can inherit the position of commander, the family fortune accumulated by General Ji over the past eight hundred years is an immeasurable fortune."

"No one knows how many peerless pets, secret treasures, and rare treasures Commander Ji has amassed over the past eight hundred years. Anyone who inherits his family fortune would soar to the top." Duan Shulin changed the subject and said, "However, most people can't handle such a huge benefit. Fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. For the Xiu family, this vast family fortune is the capital for a meteoric rise. They can handle it, and even seamlessly take over the Heavenly Court Army. For someone with a lesser background, this benefit would be a crushing mountain. If they're not careful, not only would they lose their lives, but their entire family might also be buried with them."

Chen Guan felt a little excited after hearing this. This matter did involve huge risks, but there was also room for maneuver.

Not to mention the rare treasures and pets, just those natural treasures have a fatal attraction to Chen Guan.

Chen Guan himself roughly calculated that the difficulty of his later upgrades would be unimaginable to others. The key was that there was not a large amount of vital energy to absorb. Even in those areas with abundant vital energy, it was unlikely to absorb a huge amount of vital energy in a short period of time.

After all, the free vital energy in the world has a certain upper limit. When it reaches a certain limit, it will turn into solid vital energy crystals and form vital energy mines. Such places are basically occupied by major forces, and the price of the mined vital energy is also very expensive, no different from natural treasures.

Chen Guan thought that in his later stage of cultivation, he would definitely need the help of various rare treasures to quickly advance to a higher level. Apart from this, he had not thought of a second method to quickly upgrade.

However, natural treasures are extremely precious in themselves, and many of them cannot be bought even with money.

If I can take over the Ji family's business, then the problem of rapid upgrading should be solved.

Of course, Chen Guan would not seek death himself. He was wondering how long General Ji would live. Since he had survived for more than 800 years, he should not die so soon, right?

If Commander Ji could live another ten or eight years, at least no one would dare to touch Ji Nanhong and his son-in-law while he was alive.

Everyone knows that a dying person is the most terrifying, and no one would make a mortal enemy with Captain Ji at this time.

As long as Chen Guan could be given ten or eight years, or even just four or five, and the Ji family's wealth was substantial enough, relying on the Yizhi secret method and the Ji family's natural resources and treasures, Chen Guan would be able to soar to the sky. After General Ji passed away, it wouldn't be difficult to support the Ji family.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Commander Ji can live for a few more years and is willing to give him the resources of the Ji family. Otherwise, Chen Guan will definitely not join the Ji family, which is tantamount to seeking death.

"It's probably too late for you to retreat now. Xiu Jieming and the Xiu family have already regarded Ji Nanhong and the Ji family's property as theirs. If you enter the Xiu family's sight at this time, they will definitely not let you go." Duan Shulin continued to analyze.

"You and I are enemies, not friends. Why are you telling me this?" Chen Guan knew that Duan Shulin must have some ulterior motive, and what he wanted should be related to Minglian.

Duan Shulin said seriously, "Brother Guan, you kept your promise and didn't take my life. I think you are a trustworthy person, so I want to work with you again."

Chen Guan looked at Duan Shulin with a strange expression. He did not kill Duan Shulin, not because he kept his promise, but because Chen Guan felt that it was not the time to kill.

Given Chen Guan's personality, he wouldn't have to fight at all. If he did, it would have been a thundering blow. He wouldn't give Duan Shulin any chance, not even leaving him a corpse. Speaking of killing, no one in history had killed more people than his father, Chen Xinghe. Yet, Chen Xinghe was forced to live in anonymity, not even daring to reveal his real name.

Chen Guan didn't want to follow Chen Xinghe's old path. He wanted to try another way. After possessing the soul of a cheerleader, he became more determined in this idea.

"How do you want to cooperate?" Chen Guan asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Nether Lotus was conceived by the overflowing energy of the Secret God, and it's not as simple as being born from the Mysterious Nether Yin Fire."

Duan Shulin paused and continued, "I've read an ancient book from the Qin Dynasty that records natural treasures born from the energy of the Secret God. These treasures themselves have some kind of mysterious connection with the Secret God. If you possess a Secret God treasure, you can use it to sense the location of the Secret Spirit Egg and the grade of the Secret Spirit inside, making it easier to find it."

"When the secret spirit egg falls, anyone can see it clearly. Now so many people are rushing here. Even if we know where the secret spirit egg is, it will be difficult to grab it, and it won't be of much use." Chen Guan pondered.

"It seems that Brother Guan really doesn't understand the circumstances surrounding the birth of a Mystic God. Generally speaking, the number of Mystic Spirit Eggs dropped by a Mystic God when giving birth is enormous, possibly even tens of thousands. Even if there are only a few thousand or even a few hundred, it's impossible for a single force to snatch all of them."

"Before a spirit hatches from a spirit egg, no one knows what rank it is. It's like grabbing a blind box. You only know its quality after it hatches."

Chen Guan immediately understood Duan Shulin's meaning: "Can we use the Nether Lotus to sense the rank of the secret spirits within those secret spirit eggs? And then we can snatch them specifically?"

Now he finally understood why Duan Shulin took the risk to follow him. It turned out that this was his plan.

"Yes, that's exactly the point." Duan Shulin said, "You have secret spirit treasures, but your level is too low. Even if you're lucky, you probably won't be able to snatch many secret spirit eggs."

Chen Guan watched Duan Shulin without saying anything. Duan Shulin chuckled and said, "Although my ability is not as good as yours, I have money. We can use the money to buy the Secret Spirit Egg."

"Will others sell it?" Chen Guan frowned.

"That depends on how many secret spirit eggs the Secret God will drop. If the number is hundreds of thousands or millions, the probability of containing high-quality secret spirits is very low. As long as the price we offer is right, there should be many people willing to sell." Duan Shulin said.

"What if only a few secret spirit eggs are produced?" Chen Guan continued to ask.

"That depends on the specific situation. If there are less than a hundred Secret Spirit Eggs, I estimate that most of them will fall into the hands of the big families, and our chances will be very small. If there is a chance, we will take a gamble. I will spend all my wealth to try to acquire the Son of the Secret God."

"What is the Son of the Secret God?"

"The reason why the major families are fighting with all their might and at all costs to snatch the Secret Spirit Egg is mainly because of the one and only Son of the Secret God, a supreme divine pet that transcends all other worlds."
