God of Pets

Chapter 497 Ice Bird Takes the Battle
To steal someone's spoils in public without lifting a finger is something that probably no one would agree to.

The four major families of Qin, Chu, Shang, and Jiang may not turn against Chen Guan here, but they will inevitably try to trip him up in the future.

Although this wouldn't affect Chen Guan much, he could simply revert to his original identity.

However, if you can save face, there's no need to lose face.

When he could afford to be modest, Chen Guan was quite modest.

The battle between the Xuan Tian Dragon King and the Red Bear was so fierce that it caused the heavens and earth to darken. If such a battle were to take place elsewhere, it would definitely be a disaster.

Fortunately, they fought in the river; if they had fought on the bank, who knows how many precious natural resources would have been destroyed.

Thinking of this, Chen Guan suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "If we can lure the red bear ashore and it tramples those rare and precious herbs, will it be punished by the guardian spirit of the vegetable garden? If it is punished, it means it is not the guardian spirit of the vegetable garden. If it is not punished, can we take advantage of this bug?"

Chen Guan thought to himself, pondering the feasibility of this plan.

Firstly, if the red bear is killed, it shouldn't be considered that he killed it, and then it will be impossible to get the pet.

Secondly, will this method affect the pets that lured the red bear into the vegetable garden?

If both sides are punished equally, or if the red bear is actually the guardian spirit of the vegetable garden and goes unpunished, while its pet that lured it is killed, then it would be a net loss.

After much deliberation, Chen Guan still felt that this plan was not feasible.

As he was thinking, he saw the Xuan Tian Dragon King retreating while fighting, heading towards the riverbank.

"Is Qin Qiu really that reckless? Taking the Xuan Tian Dragon King for a risk?" Chen Guan was surprised.

He soon discovered that Qin Qiu wasn't as unrestrained as he seemed. The Xuan Tian Dragon King simply stepped aside, and the other four giant pets took over the battle again, while the Xuan Tian Dragon King was summoned back.

Chen Guan immediately understood that Qin Qiu saw that the Xuan Tian Dragon King was still difficult to defeat, and that if the fight continued, it would result in a lose-lose situation.

To kill a Mystic God, risking the loss of the Xuan Tian Dragon King, Qin Qiu was clearly unwilling to make such a losing proposition.

He also thought of the idea Chen Guan had just come up with, or perhaps he knew some information that Chen Guan didn't know, and actually planned to lure the red bear into the vegetable garden.

The young masters had clearly discussed it beforehand; the four giant pets kept retreating, trying to lure the red bear onto the riverbank.

"Do Qin Qiu and the others want to lure the red bear into the vegetable garden to test the strange spirits in it? Aren't they afraid that the red bear itself is the spirit of the vegetable garden?" Wang Lian asked doubtfully.

"You'll only know once you try," the man in the purple robe said.

Everyone was watching the red bear and the giant pets, wondering if Qin Qiu and his team's plan would succeed.

Before long, everyone witnessed a strange scene.

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

Finally, the four pets stood on the riverbank, roaring in unison, taunting the red bear.

But the red bear still refused to rush forward, standing in the river and roaring at the giant pet on the riverbank.

Several giant pets and a red bear were yelling and shouting at each other, as if they were hurling insults at each other.

Even if Chen Guan couldn't understand the cryptic language, he could still imagine what they were saying.

It was nothing more than shouting 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!". For a moment, the fight turned into a shouting match, and no one could do anything about the red bear.

After cursing for a while, seeing that the giant pets wouldn't come down, the red bear's clever little eyes darted around, and it actually turned around and pounced back towards the giant tree nest.

"The opportunity has come." Chen Guan had been waiting for a chance to justify stealing monsters, and now it was the perfect time.

He didn't release the Evil Spirit Blood Sword directly, mainly because he was afraid of being punished by the secret spirit in the vegetable garden.

Chen Guan retreated to the back and, while everyone was focused on the red bear that was pouncing towards him, summoned the Frost Raven.

It's hard to assess the Frost Raven's combat strength. On the one hand, it's not powerful; on the other hand, when it accumulates enough Frost Body, its combat strength is top-notch.

Pets like giant lions are only about as powerful as giant flying dragons.

If the Frost Crows that the Frost Realm has accumulated enough of them, their combat power should exceed that of the Giant Flying Dragon.

The problem is that if the Frost Raven wants to accumulate a sufficiently strong Frost Body, it first needs to find an extremely cold place to absorb the cold energy from the outside world, and it will take a long time to condense a sufficiently powerful Frost Body.

During normal combat, there's no time to let it do these things.

Even though the Frost Raven has not accumulated a Frost Body, it is still very strong in combat, but it will be at a disadvantage when fighting against giant Mystic Spirits, and it cannot be considered a top-tier combat force.

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

He directly activated his Mysterious Treasury, using a million yuan of energy to perform the Frost Cotton Hand technique, and the surging icy energy poured into the body of the Frost White Crow.

If you use other Mystic Pets, Frosty Hands will freeze them directly into ice sculptures.

However, for the Frost White Raven, who possesses the Frost Saint Body, this is a blessing.

Ice crystals were visible to the naked eye appearing on the body of the Frost Raven, and they were expanding at an extremely rapid speed.

Chen Guan threw the Frost White Crow off the platform. The Frost White Crow soared into the sky, and the ice-covered hands formed from a million yuan of energy continuously surged towards it, causing the frost on its body to accumulate thicker and thicker, making it grow larger and larger.

By the time others noticed it, it had already grown to the size of a giant lion.

But this was not the end. The frost on its body continued to increase, and its size soon surpassed that of a giant lion, becoming comparable to that of a red bear.

The power of a million units of ice was not yet exhausted, and the Frost Saint Body continued to grow, soon surpassing the Red Bear. Finally, when its size reached nearly twice that of the Red Bear, the change completely stopped.

Although it is not as large as when it first appeared, it is still quite terrifying and is considered to be of a huge size among giant mystic spirits.

Qin Qiu had originally planned to summon the Xuan Tian Dragon King again to resist the red bear, but suddenly saw a giant ice bird fly out. Its size was still growing, and after a while it was even bigger than the red bear.

"Whose giant pet is that?" Chu Jianfeng asked, somewhat puzzled.

There aren't many people with giant pets here. Since all four of them are here, among the remaining people, only Gushan, Zipao, Gong Mingwang, Zi Donglai, and others are likely to have giant pets.

Other ordinary scions of wealthy families may not have giant pets on the surface, but it's hard to say whether they do in secret.

However, being able to fight at this time, regardless of whose pet the ice bird is, is a good thing for Qin Qiu and his team.

This at least shows that the owner of the ice bird was not someone who stood idly by and wanted to take advantage of the situation.
