God of Pets-Chapter 497: The Ice Bird Joins the Battle

In front of everyone, snatching someone else’s spoils of war without exerting any effort, probably no one would agree.

Qin, Chu, Shang, and Jiang, the four great families, might not fall out with Chen Guan here, but later on, they would definitely try to trip him up.

Though this wouldn’t affect Chen Guan much, as he only needs to revert to his original identity.

But when able to save face, there’s no need to throw it on the ground.

When it’s time to save face, Chen Guan does care for it.

Xuan Tian Dragon King and the Red Bear fought fiercely, such a battle in another place would definitely be disastrous.

Fortunately, they were fighting in the river; otherwise, who knows how many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures would have been destroyed on land.

Thinking of this, a sudden idea struck Chen Guan: "If the Red Bear can be lured onto the shore, and it destroys those Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, would it be punished by the garden guardian spirit? If punished, it means it’s not the garden guardian spirit. If not, can we exploit this bug?"

Chen Guan pondered the feasibility of this plan.

Firstly, if the Red Bear is killed, it shouldn’t count as his kill, and obtaining a pet would be impossible.

Secondly, would this method endanger the pet luring the Red Bear into the garden?

If both received equal punishment, or the Red Bear is actually the garden guardian spirit and remains unpunished while the luring pet is killed, it would be a huge loss.

Thinking it over, Chen Guan deemed this plan infeasible.

While he was contemplating, he saw that the Xuan Tian Dragon King was retreating in battle, heading towards the riverbank.

"Is Qin Qiu that daring? Taking risks with the Xuan Tian Dragon King?" Chen Guan thought in surprise.

Quickly, he realized Qin Qiu wasn’t that daring. The Xuan Tian Dragon King merely retreated to the side while the other four giant pets took over the battle, and the Xuan Tian Dragon King was recalled.

Chen Guan understood that Qin Qiu saw the Xuan Tian Dragon King struggling to win, fearing that continuing might lead to a situation where both sides suffered losses.

To kill a Secret God while risking the Xuan Tian Dragon King, Qin Qiu clearly wasn’t willing to make such a losing deal.

And he had thought of the idea Chen Guan had earlier or knew some information unbeknownst to Chen Guan, as he planned to lure the Red Bear into the garden.

These young masters had evidently discussed this, as the four giant pets kept retreating, trying to lure the Red Bear ashore.

"Do they want to lure the Red Bear into the garden and use it to test the garden’s strange secret spirit? Aren’t they afraid the Red Bear itself is the garden’s secret spirit?" Wang Lian questioned.

"It’s necessary to test it to find out." Purple Robe replied.

Everyone was watching the Red Bear and the giant pets, wanting to see if Qin Qiu’s plan would succeed.

Before long, they witnessed a strange scene.

No matter how the four giant pets tried to lure it, the Red Bear refused to come ashore.

Ultimately, the four pets stood on the riverbank, collectively roaring at the Red Bear in provocation.

Yet, the Red Bear still wouldn’t charge at them, standing in the river, roaring back at the giant pets on the riverbank.

The giant pets and the Red Bear roared at each other, like they were in a shouting match.

Even if Chen Guan couldn’t understand the language of secret spirits, he could imagine what they were saying.

It was just things like "Come down if you dare", "Come up if you dare", "Whoever doesn’t come up is a son", "Whoever doesn’t come down is a grandson" and so on.

At one point, the battle turned into a shouting match, and no one had any solution for the Red Bear.

After a bout of shouting, the Red Bear, seeing those giant pets wouldn’t come down, turned its clever little eyes and pounced again towards the Giant Tree Nest.

"Here’s the opportunity." Chen Guan had been waiting for a legitimate chance to engage, and now was the time.

He didn’t summon the Evil Spirit Blood Sword directly, mainly fearing retaliation from the garden’s secret spirit.

Chen Guan retreated to the back, and as everyone focused on the approaching Red Bear, he summoned the Frosty White Crow.

The Frosty White Crow’s combat power is difficult to measure. If it’s not formidable then, once it accumulates its Frost Body sufficiently, its combat power is top-tier.

Giant lion-like pets have combat power comparable to Giant Flying Dragons.

And with sufficient Frost Body accumulation, the Frosty White Crow’s combat strength should surpass that of a Giant Flying Dragon.

The problem is that for a Frosty White Crow to accumulate a sufficiently powerful Frost Body, it needs to find a place of extreme cold to absorb external Ice Cold Elemental Energy, and it takes a long time to gather a sufficiently powerful Frost Body.

In normal battles, there’s no time for it to do that.

A Frosty White Crow without an accumulated Frost Body is still very strong but would struggle against giant secret spirits, not considered top-tier in combat strength.

This problem is a problem for others, but not for Chen Guan.

He directly opened My Secret Collection, using a million Primordial Energy to employ Frosty Cotton Hand, surging with cold energy into the Frosty White Crow’s body.

For other secret spirit pets, the Frosty Cotton Hand would instantly freeze them into an ice sculpture.

But for the Frosty White Crow with its Frost Sacred Body, this is an enhancement.

Visible to the naked eye, ice crystals appeared outside the Frosty White Crow’s body, rapidly expanding.

Chen Guan threw the Frosty White Crow out of the platform, it flew towards the sky, the endless cold energy from the Frosty Cotton Hand continued to flow into it, causing the frost on its body to grow thicker and its size to increase larger and larger.

When others noticed it, its size was already comparable to a giant lion.

And it didn’t stop there, its frost continued to grow, soon exceeding the giant lion’s size and equaling the Red Bear.

The million pieces of icy energy were still not exhausted, and its Frost Sacred Body kept expanding, soon surpassing the Red Bear, until it was nearly twice its size before finally stopping.

Though not as huge as its first appearance, it was still terrifyingly large, considered gigantic among giant secret spirits.

Qin Qiu, who had planned to summon the Xuan Tian Dragon King again to block the Red Bear, suddenly saw a massive Ice Bird emerging, its size still growing, soon becoming larger than the Red Bear.

"Whose giant pet is that?" Chu Jianfeng pondered.

There aren’t many with giant pets here. The four of them are present, so among the remaining people, only Gu Shan, Purple Robe, Gong Mingwang, Zi Donglai, and others might have giant pets.

The other ordinary elite offspring didn’t openly have giant pets, though secretly they might.

But for the Ice Bird to fight now, regardless of whose pet it was, it was good news for Qin Qiu and them.

At least it showed the Ice Bird’s owner wasn’t someone standing idly by, trying to profit at others’ expense.
