God of Pets-Chapter 554: Purple Sun Corps

When drowsiness came, someone offered a pillow.

After Bai Xiuyan, Nan Zilan, and a group of Celestial Sun Cavalry retrieved the heads of the Black and White Impermanence Couple, they buried them in a secret and secluded place, without a tombstone, only allowing their grave to face in the direction of Celestial Yang City in the mountains and forests.

Even if the demons attacked back in the future, they would not know that this was where the Black and White Impermanence Couple was buried, and no one would disturb them anymore.

This is the place they protected, burying them here, with their spirits watching over from the heavens, they likely would not oppose.

"Purple General, please lead us forward, we are willing to pledge our lives to follow you against the demons." Having paid respects to the Black and White Impermanence Couple, Nan Zilan and a group of Celestial Sun Cavalry suddenly saluted Chen Guan, and Nan Zilan spoke on behalf of everyone.

The gazes of everyone were full of anticipation.

They already had nothing to tie them down, only hoping to kill more demons.

Following those big noble families, or even following the Ancestral Court, was too stifling, it was nowhere near as gratifying as following Chen Guan.

To continue fighting demons, they could only follow Chen Guan, there was no second path to choose.

Moreover, they now revered Chen Guan like a War God and were accustomed to Fujimura Reiko’s command style, entering a regular army, they likely couldn’t adjust.

Plus, Chen Guan distributed most of the spoils to them; with such character and ability, they weren’t fools who wouldn’t seize the opportunity.

"You want to follow me, you can, but I have three rules, if you can abide by them, then you can follow me, otherwise it’s better for each to go their own way." Chen Guan said calmly, not eager to accept just because everyone wanted to pledge loyalty to him.

"Purple General, no matter how many rules you have, we will follow them." Nan Zilan said.

"Don’t be quick to agree, listen before you speak." Chen Guan interrupted the others who wanted to show loyalty, then continued: "First, if you want to be my soldiers, you must absolutely obey my commands, you cannot question my orders, even if they seem wrong, you must execute them with all your strength, disobedience is not allowed."

"Military orders are as solid as mountains, it should be this way, we can all adhere to this first rule. If someone disobeys, you don’t need to act, Purple General, I’ll clean house for you first." Nan Zilan finished, and everyone responded in unison.

"The second rule is, all my subordinates, when fighting demons, must fight to the death and not surrender; if someone surrenders to the demons and becomes a traitor, they will be killed no matter where they flee to." Chen Guan said sternly.

"They will be killed no matter where they flee to..." Nan Zilan and the others shouted together, this rule resonated with them, as they most hated the demons, how could they surrender to them.

"The third rule is, if you find a better opportunity in the future, as long as you’re not going to the demons, you can leave at any time, I won’t force you to stay..." Chen Guan was halfway through speaking, seeing their excitement, he gestured for silence.

"Let me finish, life is not a feast that never ends, when you grow old, or have a family, or find it meaningless and want to live an ordinary life, it’s understandable if you wish to leave."

"This is just a part of your life journey, not the end of it; since the gathering will disperse eventually, I don’t mind you leaving."

"But you must leave with etiquette and dignity; if someone takes a bowl to eat, but puts it down and curses, then don’t blame me for cleaning house."

"Rest assured, Purple General, we are not such unfaithful and dishonest individuals." Nan Zilan raised his hand in oath.

The cavalrymen also followed suit in swearing, and Chen Guan finally had a corps of his own.

Although this corps currently only had three hundred fifty-six people, for Chen Guan, it was undoubtedly a very good start.

With over three hundred soldiers now, wouldn’t thirty thousand, or even three hundred thousand soldiers be far off?

After a few people discussed, the new corps was named the Purple Sun Corps.

Purple for Zi Donglai, Sun for Celestial Yang City.

Chen Guan appointed Nan Zilan as Vice Corps Commander and Fujimura Reiko as Commander.

As for Bai Xiuyan, in reality, he wasn’t part of the Purple Sun Corps.

Although Chen Guan very much wanted to include Bai Xiuyan in the Purple Sun Corps, someone like Bai Xiuyan is like a dandelion dancing with the wind, won’t be confined to one place, nor be trapped for one person.

Chen Guan could understand Bai Xiuyan, so when he did not choose to join the Purple Sun Corps, Chen Guan was not surprised.

While inventorying the Celestial Yang City’s warehouse, a batch of blue minerals were discovered, those minerals were glowing, seemingly with strong radiation.

No one initially recognized what kind of minerals they were, so they were left piled in the warehouse, and no one dared to touch them.

Chen Guan summoned Ming Fei to take a look, and she identified the mineral as "Illusionary Spirit Stone," material for refining Illusionary Spirit Iron, a very high-level Grotto Heaven mineral, generally used to craft city defense shields.

This stuff should be sold by the gram, with each gram selling for over thirty; God knows how many tons are in this warehouse of Illusionary Spirit Stones, conservatively estimated to be over a thousand tons, invaluable in worth.

Ming Fei guessed, these Illusionary Spirit Stones were likely procured by the demons to upgrade the Celestial Yang City’s defense shield, and it was a major upgrade.

Perhaps the work hadn’t started when unexpectedly Celestial Yang City was attacked, and so these Illusionary Spirit Stones ended up here.

Chen Guan pondered whether to continue using the Illusionary Spirit Stones to upgrade the Celestial Yang City’s defense shield, but then realized he had no experts or technical workers at all, even if he wanted to upgrade, he wouldn’t know where to start.

Besides, whether Celestial Yang City could be defended was also unknown.

Moreover, initiating the defense shield required a lot of Primordial Energy, generally needing a large number of Cultivators to sustain, he simply didn’t have enough people to maintain the Primordial Energy Shield.

Even if all his people were not fighting and stayed to maintain the defense shield, it would still be a drop in the ocean.

"Better to see if the Evil Spirit Blood Sword can absorb the Illusionary Spirit Stone’s energy." Chen Guan summoned the Evil Spirit Blood Sword to see if it was interested in the Illusionary Spirit Stones.

As Chen Guan had previously speculated, after conquering Celestial Yang City, killing many demons and pets, even Mo Qianpo, the Paperman had smoothly advanced to Level 30, but not surpassed.

Now among Chen Guan’s pets, most available ones were waiting for the right moment to break through, only the Evil Spirit Blood Sword could upgrade normally.

Once the Evil Spirit Blood Sword appeared, it excitedly dove into the Illusionary Spirit Stones, appearing to like them very much.

"Eat up, eat a lot, upgrade quickly, I’ll rely on you in the future." Chen Guan thought if enough resources existed, he could elevate the Evil Spirit Blood Sword directly to Level 60, essentially having a top-level Sixth Sense powerhouse.

Watching the Evil Spirit Blood Sword absorb the Illusionary Spirit Stones, its shimmering blue gradually faded, finally turning to slag, Chen Guan believed this time it was steady, the Evil Spirit Blood Sword’s level would definitely rise significantly.

"Purple General, someone claiming to be Mr. Xiao requests to see you, he says the City Lord of Taishan sent him over, he has important information to relay to you." The guard reported from the door.
