God of Pets

Chapter 455 The Hundred Schools of Thought

“Then let’s take down the ancestral temple,” Chen Xinghe said.

"I just want to break the deadlock, not overturn the table," Chen Guan said.

“In that case, your dad can’t help you. You know, all I have experience with is flipping tables,” Chen Xinghe said with a smile.

Chen Guan's eyes twitched, but he was speechless.

Chen Xinghe continued, "I have indeed heard about things like the Mystic God, and I have seen people who use the Mystic God, but I do not have a Mystic God pet, nor have I ever awakened a Mystic God."

“At that time, these resources were controlled by large families. If I could get these resources, why would I rebel? It was precisely because I couldn’t get them that I rebelled.”

"The reason we were able to succeed at that time, besides the right timing, the right location, and the right people, was because of a combination of secret techniques."

"Using relatively ordinary secret techniques, through mutual cooperation, we can achieve a stronger effect than advanced secret techniques. That's what your dad is good at."

"However, the composite techniques I've developed are too distinctive. People from the major families can tell at a glance who you learned them from. So if you don't want to become the public enemy of the ten major families right now, then you can't touch them."

"Fortunately, you are now considered half a member of the Ancestral Court. Seizing more Mystic God resources is the right path. You can learn compound secret techniques at any time, or you can create your own. Create your own when you have time, and learn from others when you don't. There's no need to worry about it."

Chen Guan asked with some curiosity, "Did you really not leave anything good behind back then?"

“I did get a lot of good things back then, but under those circumstances, I didn’t have time to take them with me. That battle almost destroyed all my possessions, so there’s really nothing left for you.” Chen Xinghe pursed his lips and said, “By the way, there is one thing. If you go to the Ancestral Court, you can take a look. Maybe that thing is still inside the Ancestral Court and hasn’t been taken away yet.”

"What is it?" Chen Guan asked, somewhat puzzled.

It's been so many years since the ancestral temple was taken back, it's hard to believe that there's still something inside that hasn't been discovered and taken away.

Chen Xinghe said mysteriously, "If you have the chance, you can go and see the Hundred Schools Stele of the Ancestral Temple. I hid something inside that stele, and if no one has discovered it, it should still be there."

"How could you hide something in there?" Chen Guan asked, somewhat astonished.

The Hundred Family Stele is actually a stone tablet that records the surnames of hundreds of families. The front is engraved with the surnames of hundreds of families, and the back is engraved with the development and origin of the surnames.

Of course, there are not actually only one hundred surnames listed above; the "Hundred Families Stele" is just a general term.

The Hundred Families Stele, also known as the Ancestral Stele, was erected by the Emperor Ancestor and remains highly revered to this day. Although the original sacrificial rites are no longer performed, it is still a key protected cultural relic that is admired by many.

Chen Guan couldn't figure out why Chen Xinghe would hide something inside the ancestral stele.

"I acted on a whim and didn't think too much about it. If you have the chance in the future, you can go and see if that thing is still there. If it is, it might be of some help to you. Nobody knows that I hid it, and nobody knows that it's in my possession. You can take it and use it if you want."

"What exactly is that thing?" Chen Guan asked, frowning. He had a bad feeling about it.

Sure enough, Chen Xinghe smiled mysteriously: "You'll know when you get your hands on it, once you have the chance. If someone else has already taken it, knowing what it is won't help, it'll only cause you more trouble. If no one else has taken it, it might be a little surprise. Anyway, it should be of some use."

Chen Guan knew this would happen, so he stopped asking.

It probably wasn't anything too important, otherwise Chen Xinghe would have told him.

Moreover, Chen Guan felt that once he had that ability, he wouldn't need that little thing anymore, since he was already taking things from that kind of place.

After finishing dinner late at night, Chen Xinghe told Chen Guan to leave before dawn to avoid being discovered that he had faked his death and escaped. Leaving home again, Chen Guan changed his appearance and disguised himself before heading towards the secret realm of Beiman Mountain.

The Beiman Mountain Secret Realm is an exclusive secret realm for the Heavenly Court Army. Apart from the Heavenly Court Army, anyone else who wants to enter needs to go through a special procedure.

Now that Chen Guan no longer has his identity as a member of the Heavenly Court Army, he has no choice but to find a way to get in.

After much deliberation, Chen Guan decided that he could only go to Xiu Yingmei and ask her to give him an identity that would allow him to enter the secret realm of Beiman Mountain.

Xiu Yingmei has an apartment in the Dongcheng District. She said that if anything happened to Chen Guan, he could go there to find her, which was their agreed contact point.

Following his memory of the location, Chen Guan arrived at the bustling Dongcheng District.

"Owning a house in a place like this must cost several million, right?" Chen Guan had been here before. This area is the most prosperous among the four districts of Zuting, so the house prices must be expensive.

Both sides are lined with various high-end shops, and those who can afford to shop here are people who are not short of money, mainly young men and women.

Before Chen Guan even reached his destination, he saw two familiar people.

"What a coincidence, I always run into them every time I come here." Chen Guan saw Bu Changning and his childhood sweetheart Qingya again.

This time, the two of them were in completely different situations. Qingya was dressed in gold and silver, while Bu Changning looked obviously depressed and unhappy, and his clothes were also very sloppy.

Her elegant outfit was stylish, sexy, and high-quality; everything she wore and used was a touch of luxury.

“Qingya, come back with me. Xiu Haofeng is not a good person. He has ill intentions towards you…” Bu Changning said, pulling Qingya’s arm.

In front of everyone, Qingya flung Bu Changning's hand away and sneered, "Just because he's not a good person, does that make you one? You say he has ill intentions towards me, but what good intentions have you had towards me? In the end, aren't you just like him, wanting to sleep with me? If I sleep with him, he can give me anything; if I sleep with you, what can you give me? This piece of junk?"

As she spoke, Qingya threw the bag in her hand at Bu Changning: "Here's your lousy bag back. I've slept with you for so long, and all you gave me was this bag. I only slept with Xiu Haofeng once, and he has everything..."

Chen Guan stood in the crowd, looking at the two with a strange expression.

He really didn't know whether to congratulate Bu Changning or pity him. With such a huge green hat on his head, life was truly unpredictable. But with this, he should probably wake up three times soon.

“Qingya… Xiu Haofeng is just playing with you… He’ll dump you when he gets tired of you…” Bu Changning still refused to give up.

A bystander watching the spectacle couldn't help but remark, "This guy is a real simp, the ultimate simp! Even after all this, he's still going to simp?"

"Even if I get dumped, I'll never have to worry about anything in this life. What's the point of me being with you? I'd rather sleep with a dog than be with you. Get out of here and never let me see you again." Qingya flung Bu Changning aside, and in her high heels, she walked into the upscale club next door.

Bu Changning wanted to chase after him inside, but was stopped by the gatekeeper with a sly grin: "Brother, a man should be able to take things in stride. There are plenty of other birds in the world, why not just incubate your eggs in this one?"

Bu Changning tried to rush inside, but was slapped out by the gatekeeper.

Those who can guard this place must be at least at the Cave Heaven level; Bu Changning is like a chicken in front of them.

After being slapped and stunned, two burly men came over, picked him up, and threw him into a nearby alley.
