God of Pets

Chapter 571 Heroic Rescue
Ah!
Chen Guan felt an unparalleled force coming from his hand.

The power carried a trembling force, causing Chen Guan's body to shake like a leaf.

Bang!
Chen Guan was sent flying backward, unable to resist, and plunged headfirst into the river.

Fortunately, he used his protective divine power; otherwise, the force of the shock alone would have shattered all his bones.

I'm not feeling well right now; I feel like my blood is churning in my chest, as if I'm about to vomit blood.

Chen Guan quickly used his Wave-Riding Secret Technique to burst out of the water and sped towards Ice City.

"What's wrong with that mountain-splitting axe? Has it become ruthless?" Chen Guan pondered. "Unless I have the power of my god to help me, it will be very difficult to pull out the mountain-splitting axe in this situation."

“But this axe has its own spirit. Even if I use the power of my god to pull it out, I'm afraid it won’t let me control it. When my god is around, I can suppress it, but when my god is not around, my own power is not enough to suppress it. I don’t want to be tricked by it again.” Seeing that the headless giant did not chase after him, Chen Guan went up to the riverbank, found a snowdrift as cover, and hid behind it to rest.

"Even the three heroes of the Xia family couldn't pull out the Mountain-Splitting Axe. They are much stronger than me, and they are also of the Xia family bloodline. If that's not enough, then how can I gain the Mountain-Splitting Axe's approval?" As Chen Guan pondered, for some reason, he thought of Ma Xiaolong's talent.

"Ma Xiaolong said he could resonate with all the mysterious spirits in the ice cliffs, but those spirits were actually just sealed within the ice cliffs. Is it possible that Ma Xiaolong's talent is actually to resonate with the power that seals the spirits, rather than to resonate with the spirits themselves?"

"The black dragon said he had that person's bloodline. Is it possible that only those with the talent of being a descendant of the dragon can pull out the mountain-splitting axe?" Chen Guan wondered if he should give it a try.

But if Ma Xiaolong were to pull out the mountain-splitting axe, firstly, he wouldn't be strong enough, and secondly, if he actually managed to pull it out, and the axe resonated with him, would he still give it back to him?
Chen Guan thought for a while and realized that he needed to come up with a foolproof plan to get Ma Xiaolong to pull out the mountain axe.

As for who gets to choose the machete, what does that have to do with Chen Guan? Why make such a fuss over a tool? He needs to be properly reprimanded.

With this thought in mind, Chen Guan got up and headed towards Ice City, thinking about how to make Ma Xiaolong wholeheartedly support him with the mountain-splitting axe, and how to get Ma Xiaolong to successfully pull out the mountain-splitting axe.

Chen Guan is currently no match for the headless giant's strength, and even getting close to it is quite difficult.

Without the three Xia family heroes holding the line, Chen Guan estimated that he wouldn't even make it to the headless giant before being blasted away by the terrifying force of the punch.

Chen Guan now regrets that he was in such a hurry to pull out the mountain-opening axe that he didn't give the headless giant a crippling punch.

However, Chen Guan was unsure whether the Cripple Fist would be effective against the headless giant.

The headless giant should have originally had a head; you can see that there's a severed neck. He could still live even with his head severed, so the crippling fist was largely rendered useless.

Effects such as blindness, loss of sound, and hearing loss are no longer very useful.

Now we can only try to see if the crippling punch can cause a heart attack or injure his lungs or other internal organs.

Chen Guan didn't throw a punch at the time, but instead directly pulled away the mountain axe, because he was afraid that the crippling punch would be useless against the headless giant and would only alert him. Now he had to think of another way.

"I definitely can't beat the headless giant in terms of raw strength, so I can only pin my hopes on the crippling fist and then find a way to get close to him." Chen Guan felt that he could only focus on his movement techniques now.

Find a secret technique that allows you to get close to the headless giant, and then try it out to see if the Crippled Fist works on him.

We can put Ma Xiaolong's matter aside for now. We can go find Ma Xiaolong after he has dealt with the headless giant.

When we returned to Harbin, we didn't see Ma Xiaolong at the city gate.

Chen Guan didn't care and planned to leave the Extreme Profound Great Yuan Heaven first. There was no place to learn movement techniques here, so he had to find a powerful composite movement technique.

As they walked towards the teleportation array, they suddenly heard people talking about Ma Xiaolong inside an ice pavilion. "Brothers, this time we have to teach that Ma Xiaolong a lesson. How dare he steal our power leveling business! We'll kill him."

"Don't worry, this time we'll make sure Ma Xiaolong is thoroughly dead."

"That kid hasn't come back yet, so let's ambush him and give him a big surprise when he returns to Ice City."

"Yeah, let's go big, kill him, and then all the power leveling business in Ice City will be ours."

……

There are usually few people in Bingcheng, and Ma Xiaolong has left Bingcheng and is not here at all, so they talk without any restraint.

Chen Guan listened for a while from the side and realized that these people, like Ma Xiaolong, were all doing pet training services for poison-type pets. This was one of the few ways to make money in Bingcheng.

Ma Xiaolong charges low prices, his leveling services are highly efficient, and the chance of problems is low. So, if you ask around, most people who come here to train their poisonous pets will find Ma Xiaolong to do it. Others in this line of work can only get a little bit of the profits, and sometimes they can't even get that. It's normal for them to want to mess with Ma Xiaolong.

This wasn't the first time they'd tried to mess with Ma Xiaolong. Before, they were always outmatched by him, and instead of getting anything done to him, they were all badly beaten up by him.

Chen Guan, hiding to the side, listened to their plan and thought to himself, "These guys are really stupid. With their level of skill, they probably can't handle Ma Xiaolong."

Chen Guan had an idea and waited nearby. When they went to rest at night, he secretly sneaked into their room.

Summon the King of Ten Thousand Poison Insects and have it coat their weapons with an incurable poison.

Just as he was thinking about how to get Ma Xiaolong to wholeheartedly help him, this opportunity came along.

If someone comes along and comes to the rescue, don't blame them for where the trouble came from; since they saved him, the favor is owed no matter what.

……

When Ma Xiaolong returned from his game boosting job and entered the city, he sensed something was wrong. Suddenly, he saw pets rushing out from all around, along with several familiar faces wielding weapons and charging at him.

Ma Xiaolong gave a cold laugh, and without summoning his pet, he simply drew his sword and fought against the crowd, beating them so they couldn't get close.

Just as Ma Xiaolong was feeling smug, he suddenly felt a cold whistle from behind. He instinctively turned around and dodged two flying knives, but one of them grazed his cheek, leaving a thin cut. The cut was small, just a slight break in the skin.

"I've held back at every turn, yet you all want my life. Don't blame me for being merciful then." Ma Xiaolong was somewhat annoyed and directly used his natal star mask.

It was a dragon mask with dragon horns on it.

As soon as the mask was put on, dragon scale armor immediately appeared on Long's body, protecting his entire body.

Ma Xiaolong was about to unleash his full power and deal with these colleagues who were always trying to harm him, but suddenly he felt a dizziness and staggered.

"I've been poisoned!" Ma Xiaolong reached for the antidote on his person, but he didn't know what kind of medicine it was, and it was so potent that before he could even get his hand into his pocket, he collapsed forward.

When he fell to the ground, his vision was blurred and he seemed to see a familiar figure descend from the sky and stand in front of him.

"Master... Brother..." Ma Xiaolong fainted peacefully.
