God of Pets

Chapter 840 Clouds Follow the Dragon

The little gray cloud probably didn't keep following them because the ghost eye had offended it.

Because this little gray cloud had flown down from the heights of the Ninth Heaven in the first place, its target was very clear: it was coming for them.

Otherwise, in such a large area, why would the little gray cloud land so far away at their location instead of landing anywhere else?

Moreover, the Ghost Eye was constantly flying and its position was constantly changing, and the little gray cloud happened to land on them by sheer coincidence. It was too much of a coincidence.

Since it wasn't a coincidence, it means that Little Gray Cloud was targeting them from the very beginning.

Chen Guan and the others had never seen Little Gray Cloud before, nor had they offended it. Little Gray Cloud did not show any obvious hostility; it simply followed them.

"What could have attracted Little Gray Cloud?" Chen Guan thought carefully, and it seemed that the only thing he could connect with the Heavenly Cloud was another Heavenly Cloud, Little White.

"No way? Does this mean I, Chen Guan, am cursed with being a gigolo? Everyone I get involved with has to be a gigolo?" Chen Guan called out Xiao Bai, wanting to see if the little gray cloud was really after Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai appeared beside Chen Guan, who looked at the small gray cloud in the sky, trying to discern its secrets from its behavior.

To his disappointment, the little gray cloud did not react at all, which was not what Chen Guan had imagined.

"Isn't it because of Xiaobai? Then what is it because of?" Chen Guan was somewhat surprised and frowned in thought again.

Soon, Chen Guan had a new idea.

Since it wasn't Little White who attracted Little Gray Cloud, the only thing that could be related to Little Gray Cloud seems to be Ghost Eye.

Of course, this relationship seems a bit far-fetched, and even Chen Guan himself doesn't think it's very reliable.

The saying goes, "The wind follows the tiger, and the clouds follow the dragon," and there has been a saying about dragons in the clouds since ancient times.

Ghost Eye is also a dragon species, and it is surrounded by those dragon-qi ghost clouds, so it can be said to be a type of cloud.

If one had to draw a connection, Chen Guan wondered if it was possible that the little gray cloud was after Ghost Eye.

However, at this time, Chen Guan was unable to summon the Ghost Eye.

The Ghost Eye's size was too large; the Crimson Lotus Cloud could not contain its body, and it would also increase the burden on the White Tiger.

If the ghost eye were to fall into the air, it would instantly fall into the Cloud of Returning Souls. Even if it didn't die, it would become an empty-headed idiot.

"How can I give it a try?" Chen Guan wondered to himself.

Aside from this far-fetched reason, Chen Guan really couldn't think of any other reason why Little Gray Cloud would follow them.

If Little Gray Cloud really came for Ghost Eye, maybe we can get Little Gray Cloud to help them out of their predicament.

The problem now is that Chen Guan has no way to summon the Ghost Eye for experiments.

"It should only take a moment to prove it," Chen Guan decided, and decided to give it a try.

He could summon the Ghost Eye into the air the instant Tian Shangxing unleashed the Tian Shang Fist, and then simply recall it after a brief moment.

This process requires precise timing and quick reaction. Test the little gray cloud's reaction and immediately retract the ghost eye, otherwise, a big problem will occur.

With these thoughts in mind, Chen Guan activated his martial arts rhythm to judge the rhythm of Tian Shangxing's punches so that he could perfectly coordinate with them.

Chen Guan silently counted three, two, one. Almost at the same time that Tian Shang Xing unleashed the Tian Shang Fist, Chen Guan summoned the Ghost Eye and turned his gaze to the Little Gray Cloud. The Little Gray Cloud, which had originally flown to the side of the Red Lotus Cloud, noticed the appearance of the Ghost Eye and immediately moved, flying towards it.

Chen Guan was overjoyed and wanted to immediately retract the Ghost Eye to prevent it from falling into the dark clouds.

In that split second, a brilliant idea flashed through Chen Guan's mind, and he actually abandoned his plan to retrieve the Ghost Eye.

Ghost Eyes, suspended in mid-air, propelled forward at an incredible speed along with the Crimson Lotus Cloud for a short distance due to inertia. Then, its speed suddenly dropped, and in the blink of an eye, it plunged into the Black Cloud.

Almost at the same moment Ghost Eye fell into the black cloud, Little Gray Cloud chased after Ghost Eye and rushed in like a gray lightning bolt.

Chen Guan's eyes flickered as he stared intently at the dark clouds.

His actions were somewhat risky and impulsive, but a flash of inspiration just now made him feel that this method might be feasible.

He felt that Little Gray Cloud would definitely save Ghost Eye. As long as Little Gray Cloud rescued Ghost Eye, they could rush onto Ghost Eye and let Little Gray Cloud take them away together.

It sounds risky, but for some reason, Chen Guan just felt for a moment that it could work.

Even he himself is now sweating bullets, worried that something might happen to Ghost Eye.

Ghost Eye is currently his strongest pet, and any mishap to it would be a huge loss for Chen Guan.

However, since the Demon Eye possesses the secret law of the Boundless Emperor, it shouldn't be so easily damaged.

After all, Tianyun has no offensive power, and Guiquhunxiyun can only harm people's souls.

Chen Guan stared longingly at the black cloud. Time passed second by second, and thirty or forty seconds had already gone by, but Ghost Eye and Little Gray Cloud still hadn't appeared.

He could sense that Ghost Eye was not dead, but Returning Soul Cloud would not actually kill Secret Spirit, so whether Ghost Eye was dead or not was not proof of whether something had happened to it.

"Could it be because Ghost Eye's body is too large and heavy, and Little Gray Cloud's power can't carry it at high speed, preventing it from breaking out of the black cloud?" Chen Guan pondered, feeling a sense of unease: "Could it be that trusting my intuition once in a while really leads to trouble?"

Time passed slowly, but Ghost Eye and Little Gray Cloud still didn't appear.

Just as Chen Guan was gritting his teeth and preparing to forcibly retract the Ghost Eye, he suddenly saw that the boundless black clouds were beginning to collapse and shrink rapidly.

The collapse was unusually fast. By the time Chen Guan saw the Returning Soul Cloud, which was tens of thousands of miles long, it had already collapsed and sunk into a dark black cloud bead.

Those were clouds compressed to the extreme, clouds stretching for tens of thousands of miles, compressed into cloud beads with a diameter of less than one meter.

And that jet-black cloud bead was now right between the dragon's claws of the Ghost Eye.

Ghost Eyes' enormous body hovered in the air, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a divine dragon whose head could not be seen or its tail could be seen.

However, the mist surrounding him was a bit strange today. It was dark purple before, but now it had turned grayish and grayish-purple.

Between its claws, a strange aura emanated from grayish-purple clouds, swirling around the inky black cloud bead and locking it firmly in place.

Chen Guan was both surprised and delighted. He knew that Ghost Eye did not have such an ability. It must have been that little gray cloud that did something to compress the Returning Soul Cloud into a solid cloud bead.

With a thought, Chen Guan shouted to Ghost Eye, "Push the Heavenly Cloud Pearl over here."

As he shouted, Chen Guan activated the power of the God of War and also began to use another secret technique.
