God of Pets

Chapter 584 Underwater Battle
Chen Guan commanded Qiongqi to pounce down. A ferocious beast mask appeared on Qiongqi's face, and in the next instant, it turned black and red, enveloping its entire body and forming a layer of strange black and red feathers.

Roar!
The crown on Qiongqi's head turned, casting down streams of vital energy that caused clouds to rise from its body.

The wind stirred and the clouds swayed. Qiongqi, taking advantage of the wind and clouds, and carrying terrifying air pressure, pounced on Wuzhiqi from the sky.

Two ferocious beasts were locked in battle, while the three Xia siblings were also there fighting against the sword waves from the sword ball.

They combined a halo, which forcibly trapped the sword pellet. The halo continuously absorbed the sword pellet's sword waves and then sprayed them into the sky from the other side.

Qiongqi is fast and destructive, but its physical body is not as strong as Wuzhiqi's, so it can only win by speed.

If it's a truly life-or-death battle, the outcome is still uncertain.

However, Wuzhiqi was determined to rush back into the icy river, and Qiongqi could not stop him.

Seeing that Qiongqi was about to rush to the edge of the icy river, Chen Guan charged forward again without hesitation, his axe aimed at Wuzhiqi's vital spot on the waist.

Wuzhiqi was both shocked and furious. He nimbly dodged the attack, while simultaneously extending his monkey claw, which was several meters long, and brought it down on Chen Guan's head, intending to tear Chen Guan to pieces.

Chen Guan swung his axe to meet the claws.

The axe was truly unparalleled in its destructive power, instantly cleaving the clawed beast in two, posing no threat whatsoever.

Seeing this, Wuzhiqi gritted his teeth, ignored the chopping blows of the mountain-splitting axe, and charged towards the icy river with all his might.

Click!

Chen Guan, holding an axe in one hand, crossed paths with Wuzhiqi, and the axe light forcefully severed one of Wuzhiqi's arms.

However, Wuzhiqi took advantage of the opportunity of losing his arm to leap up and rush into the icy river, splashing up a wave that was more than ten feet high.

Seeing Wuzhiqi rush into the icy river, Xia Huang and the others all wore bitter expressions.

Once Wuzhiqi enters the icy river, there will be no chance to kill it again, and this sword pellet probably won't be able to hold it back anyway, as it will eventually take it back.

Chen Guan stood expressionless on the riverbank, watching the waves in the water.

Suddenly, Wuzhiqi Shuang emerged from the river, popping his head out and staring intently at Chen Guan on the bank. He let out a strange scream, as if to say, "You just wait, I will definitely kill you."

"Let's talk about it after you survive," Chen Guan said calmly to Wuzhiqi in the water.

When he brushed past Wuzhiqi, he not only severed one of its arms, but also took the opportunity to deliver a crippling punch.

The giant wind-defending god had no head, so the crippling fist had little effect on him.

But Wuzhiqi has a brain, so his crippling fist should be somewhat effective.

"Big brother...this is it...Wuzhiqi has gone back into the water..." Xia Guagua said dejectedly.

Xia Huang didn't know what to say. They had trapped the sword pellet, but their energy was limited. Once their energy was exhausted, their combined technique would fail, and the sword pellet would be taken back by Wuzhiqi.

"Let it go, we can't keep it," Xia Hua said with a bitter face.

Xia Huang nodded helplessly. The three of them were almost out of energy, so whether they let go or not was already a foregone conclusion.

The three of them simultaneously withdrew their secret techniques, and the sword pellet, carrying layers of sword waves, flew towards Wuzhiqi in the water.

Wuzhiqi opened his mouth, and the sword pellet flew in and disappeared.

"Roar!" Wuzhiqi's head emerged from the water, roaring angrily at Chen Guan and the others. Then it turned and dived back into the water, heading towards the depths of the glacial river, disappearing in an instant. Xia Huang and the others were helpless. They had done their best, but Wuzhiqi was simply too powerful, and with the aid of the Water-Avoiding Sword, they really had no way to deal with it.

Qiongqi is the overlord of the sky, with the ability to control the wind and clouds, but it has little advantage in the water.

Xia Huang thought he was going to return empty-handed this time, but suddenly he saw a figure by the icy river who got up and jumped into the river, diving into its depths.

"What is he doing..." Xia Hua was startled.

They couldn't defeat Wuzhiqi on land, and in the water, where it was Wuzhiqi's home turf, they were even less of a match for him.

Moreover, Wuzhiqi harbors such a deep grudge against Chen Guan. If Chen Guan were to go down now, wouldn't he just be handing over his head?

It wouldn't matter much if Chen Guan died, but the Mountain-Splitting Axe and Qiongqi were both on him. If he died, the Mountain-Splitting Axe would fall into Wuzhiqi's hands, and Qiongqi would also vanish into thin air.

Xia Huang's expression shifted constantly, feeling that this person was far too reckless.

Xia Guagua got up and was about to rush towards the icy river to jump in when Xia Hua grabbed her and said angrily, "Guagua, what do you think you're doing?"

"I went into the water to help that leader of the Ziyang Legion kill Wuzhiqi and seize the Water-Avoiding Sword," Xia Guagua said matter-of-factly.

"Are you crazy? Going into the water now is no different from courting death. That's Wuzhiqi's home turf, and we can't even unleash half of our fighting power underwater..." Xia Hua thought this guy was really too much of a worry.

"Why did the eldest brother of the Ziyang Corps go down there?" Xia Guagua was still unwilling to give up and stood on the shore looking down.

Xia Hua was too lazy to waste words with this silly kid, and simply said, "You're not allowed to go into the water, or I'll break your legs."

Xia Guagua looked at Xia Huang with a depressed expression. Xia Huang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "We can't go into the water."

Suddenly, waves surged on the water's surface, and water columns shot up several meters high, as if a fierce battle was taking place underwater.

A moment later, the surging waves suddenly stopped, and the ripples on the water surface gradually diminished.

Xia Hua and Xia Huang exchanged a glance, both agreeing that the man was definitely doomed. It was just a pity for them; the Mountain-Splitting Axe and Qiongqi were gone. How were they going to explain this when they got back?

Chen Guan was not about to take the risk. Before he went into the water, he saw that Wuzhiqi's eyes were bloodshot and his face was abnormally red. Something was very wrong. It was obvious that the crippling fist had taken effect.

It's estimated that before long, the stagnant power of the crippled fist and the solidified blood accumulated in Wuzhiqi's head will wreak havoc on his brain. At that point, Wuzhiqi won't even need to lift a finger; he'll be dead on his own.

Chen Guan naturally wouldn't let such an opportunity pass him by. He immediately plunged into the icy river, carrying the frigid water, and headed deeper into the icy depths.

Upon discovering Chen Guan's presence, Wuzhiqi immediately burst forth from its lair, unleashing its power to fight Chen Guan.

Chen observed that its face was now as red as blood, and its eyes were bulging and bloodshot; it was likely that it was about to die.

Undeterred, he wielded his axe, cleaving through Wuzhiqi's attacks several times.

In its fury, Wuzhiqi was about to unleash a powerful attack, but in its excitement, its brain seemed to explode. It clutched its head, convulsed, and collapsed, shaking uncontrollably as if it had epilepsy. Blood gushed from its seven orifices.

"The Cripple Fist created by Mei Qingta is truly a divine skill. Even a mysterious spirit like Wuzhiqi cannot withstand its power," Chen Guan exclaimed.

Actually, Chen Guan also deserves credit for this. With the addition of the Blood Coagulation Fork, the Crippled Fist was able to reach a higher level.

The crippling punch, which damages nerves and blood vessels, can travel through the bloodstream. Even if it doesn't hit vital areas, the power of the crippling punch can still enter the brain, heart, and other internal organs through the bloodstream, causing more serious damage.
