God of Pets-Chapter 528: How Many Do You Have?

"Alright, let him go." A voice came from behind.

The crowd looked over and saw a young man walking forward.

The surviving cultivators, upon seeing the man, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

With him stepping forward, they felt liberated and no longer had to worry about the decision of letting someone go.

At the same time, they were thankful they hadn’t rashly made decisions to release anyone, or the one who had come might not have been him.

"You can leave now, and don’t let me see you again." The young man glanced at Chen Guan and then turned his gaze to Bai Xiuyan, continuing, "Bai Xiuyan, I am also someone who practices swordsmanship. I’ve always heard that your Sword Dao Realm is unparalleled, the most unique in the world. If you are willing, I can become your disciple, and you can come to my home in the future to teach me the Sword Dao?"

This was put rather tactfully, implying that Bai Xiuyan should pledge allegiance to him to survive today.

"I don’t teach others, nor do I have the time to teach. You’d better find someone else." Bai Xiuyan said and no longer paid him any attention, handing the Transparent Flash Sword to Chen Guan, "Take the sword and leave. You shouldn’t have come here in the first place."

"I have a hobby of going where others don’t want to see me." Chen Guan didn’t take the sword, but instead tossed the Blood Clot Jade Bodhi he held to Bai Xiuyan, "Eat it. If someone gives me trouble later, I’ll rely on you to protect me."

The young man laughed in anger, "Young man, do you really think that after he kills these people it’s over? How many can he kill with just one Blood Clot Jade Bodhi?"

"If one isn’t enough, then there’s another." With a flick of his wrist, Chen Guan produced another Blood Clot Jade Bodhi and tossed it directly to Bai Xiuyan.

Bai Xiuyan was slightly surprised. He had only seen that Chen Guan and Fujimura Reiko were handsome and had thought of leaving a mark. He didn’t expect the person he randomly picked was actually a small tycoon who casually threw out two Blood Clot Jade Bodhis.

"How many can you have?" The young man clapped his hands contemptuously, and immediately many cultivators emerged from the surrounding mountains and forests.

"Here are fifty Sixth Awakening Cultivators, each capable of summoning at least five Sixth Sense pets. How many Blood Clot Jade Bodhis do you have to replenish Bai Xiuyan’s Primordial Energy?" The young man sneered, "Originally, I wanted to give you a way out, but now you’re seeking death on your own... you... think..."

The young man’s words trailed off, his expression changing, as unspoken words caught in his throat.

Because he saw Chen Guan taking out a fruit basket filled with Blood Clot Jade Bodhis, which looked like it weighed five or six pounds at least.

Everyone, including the young man, stared dumbfounded at the basket of Blood Clot Jade Bodhis that Chen Guan placed before Bai Xiuyan.

These were Blood Clot Jade Bodhis of millennial vintage, not some green jujubes from the tree, how could there be so many?

An ordinary person might never see one in their lifetime, yet here was a whole basket tossed out.

The young man’s face grew serious as he looked at Chen Guan, scrutinizing him up and down.

This basket of Blood Clot Jade Bodhis represented not just wealth, but also suggested a strong backing, and possibly a significant background.

Owning so many Blood Clot Jade Bodhis is usually only possible within the Great Cave Heaven.

Yet within the human domain there, most heavenly and earthly treasures have already been harvested, and those remaining are all accounted for.

Outside of it, there are many more, but someone would have to dare go out, have the capability to pick them, and survive the return.

If this basket truly came from the Great Cave Heaven, it implies that the person has influence there.

Yet the young man racked his brains but couldn’t recall such a figure among the Ten Great Families.

"Eat freely, if it’s not enough, just say so." Chen Guan told Bai Xiuyan.

Bai Xiuyan was momentarily stunned, not expecting to have pointed out such a person randomly.

He was not one to be pretentious. Today’s matter seemed difficult to resolve peacefully; Chen Guan didn’t have the chance to leave now, and he must gather energy to fight through the siege.

"I am Chu Jianxiong, which family do you belong to? What should I call you?" The young man now wanted to figure out Chen Guan’s origin.

"I do not belong to any family; I am my own entity." Chen Guan replied calmly.

"Regardless of which family you are from, you should be aware that preventing Bai Xiuyan from going to Celestial Yang City is not just the decision of my Chu Family, but a joint decision of the Ten Houses and the City Lord’s Mansion." Chu Jianxiong still presumed Chen Guan was from one of the Ten Great Families or the Ancestral Court.

"Why?" Chen Guan wished to understand the reason they were stopping Bai Xiuyan.

"Do you really not know or are you pretending? The demon leader who conquered Celestial Yang City is Mo Qianpo, the third of the nine demon brothers from Nine Demon City. He possesses a Cannibal Talent, and those he consumes, he can use their talents."

"With Bai Xiuyan’s talent, if consumed by Mo Qianpo, it would aid the demons, effectively strengthening the enemy."

Chen Guan realized why Taishan City was so keen on stopping Bai Xiuyan.

He’d anticipated there were reasons but hadn’t expected such ones.

"Since you knew Mo Qianpo had this ability beforehand, why didn’t you send troops to aid Celestial Yang City, letting Mo Qianpo breach the city and consume the Black and White Impermanence Couple instead?" Bai Xiuyan replied coldly.

"It’s a strategic decision, driven by necessity. Celestial Yang City’s terrain lacks natural defenses, and it was only a matter of time before it was abandoned. It wasn’t worth defending." Chu Jianxiong stated.

"Today it’s one city, tomorrow ten. Dozens of cities in the north are already gone; did they all lack strategic terrain?" Bai Xiuyan remarked indifferently.

Chu Jianxiong was momentarily speechless, only able to sigh, "War isn’t child’s play; you can’t explain it with just a few sentences. There are many issues and difficulties involved."

"You have your reasoning, and I have mine. While I may not reclaim the city, I will retrieve the bodies of the Black and White Impermanence Couple, even if it costs me my life." Bai Xiuyan said calmly.

Chu Jianxiong knew persuading Bai Xiuyan now was impossible, but he couldn’t let Bai Xiuyan head to Celestial Yang City either. With a turn of his eyes, he came up with an idea.

"Bai Xiuyan, even if you can use the Blood Clot Jade Bodhis to replenish Primordial Energy, you’ll never fully return to peak condition. While we can’t stop you if you wish to leave alone, if we decide to kill him, you might not be able to protect him, right?" Chu Jianxiong suggested. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"You can try." Bai Xiuyan replied while eating the Blood Clot Jade Bodi.

"There’s no need to try, I just have a proposal." Chu Jianxiong looked at Chen Guan, "You came here to participate in the heroes meeting, right?"

"Indeed." Chen Guan nodded.

"Then you must be a Four Awakened Cultivator, am I correct?" Chu Jianxiong followed up.

"That’s right." Chen Guan confirmed with another nod.

"I am also a Four Awakened Cultivator. If Bai Xiuyan agrees, I can have a one-on-one match with you. Should I lose, I’ll depart immediately and no longer obstruct your way to Celestial Yang City. But if you lose, I won’t take your lives, only that Bai Xiuyan can no longer proceed to Celestial Yang City—is that acceptable?" Chu Jianxiong proposed while looking at Bai Xiuyan.
