God of Pets

Chapter 906 Always with you
The Emperor's Sword certainly has its flaws and limitations, but outsiders are unaware of the conditions under which it locks onto a target.

Previously, the divine runes on Xiu Jieming's body had taken effect, but the Emperor's sword was unable to lock onto him, so it had no effect whatsoever.

At this moment, more than half of the divine runes on Xiu Jieming's body had dimmed, and the effect of the secret law was about to completely disappear. The Emperor's sword had already locked onto him. No matter where he was, as long as Qi Tianxin swung his sword, he could ignore the defense and hit him.

It seems that the Emperor's Sword is very effective against Xiu Jieming. Its ability to ignore defense means that even the third stage of Returning to the Origin technique couldn't stop it.

The "Return to One's True Nature" technique shouldn't be entirely useless. If the person being struck now wasn't Xiu Jieming, but someone else, they would have been cut in two long ago.

So far, the sword wounds on Xiu Jieming's body are only superficial wounds, and none of them have been able to truly harm his vital organs.

Under the three-stage enhancement of returning to one's original nature, Xiu Jieming's sword wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xiu Yingmei and the others knew very well that the Emperor's Sword was not Qi Tianxin's killing move, but was only used to test how much of a use the divine runes on Xiu Jieming's body still had.

Once the secret laws of the divine runes completely fail, that will be the time for Qi Tianxin to truly unleash his killing move.

"Big brother..." Xiu Yingmei was extremely worried, but there was nothing she could do.

Qi Tianxin was even more difficult to defeat than expected. Up until now, Xiu Jieming hadn't even managed to touch a single piece of his clothing.

Even someone as strong as Xiu Jieming seems to be completely manipulated by Qi Tianxin at this moment.

"Just how many good things does this guy have?" Chen Guan stared intently at the Emperor's Sword in Qi Tianxin's hand.

Since his return, Qi Tianxin has used at least twenty secret treasures, each with unique abilities and none of them being ordinary.

Many of these treasures were so coveted that even Chen Guan found them extremely tempting.

When Qi Tianxin came to kill him, he didn't have time to bring out so many secret treasures to kill him, and he was persuaded to back down by someone.

After reading it now, Chen Guan thought that if Qi Tianxin had gone all out back then, it was uncertain whether he would have survived.

After watching for a while, Qin Qiu shook his head and said, "Qi Tianxin has been the presiding judge for too long. He has secretly collected countless magical items. In comparison, the Xiu family's foundation is still too shallow. Xiu Jieming did not lose because his ability was inferior to Qi Tianxin, but because his foundation was insufficient."

"Qi Tianxin's re-election as judge may harm the interests of our families in the future." Chu Jianfeng had also given up hope and was thinking about the future.

Qin Qiu laughed and said, "Actually, there's no need to worry about these things. Qi Tianxin must have paid a huge price to win over the Dushan Sect and the Xia family. He has suffered severe losses. After he is re-elected, he will be too busy recuperating to do anything."

Chen Guan and Ji Nanhong exchanged a glance; they understood.

This election is, for the Xiu family and Xiu Jieming, a matter of life and death concerning the family's rise and fall.

But for the ten major families, it was just another contest.

This defeat won't be a major blow, and Qi Tianxin might even continue to cooperate with them in the future.

Chen Guan felt no indignation at Qin Qiu and his group's confidence; he was merely somewhat envious.

Privileges are something that everyone will resist if they don't have them. But once those who resist privileges possess them, how many of them will still resist them?
Chen Guan didn't know if true universal harmony existed in this world, but he was certain that he himself craved privilege.

"Chen Guan, didn't you believe Xiu Jieming would definitely win? I agree to the bet you just mentioned. Do you still dare to bet?" Feng Wuci's voice came over. Seeing that Xiu Jieming was about to lose and was on the verge of collapse, Feng Wuci became angrier and angrier. If he didn't vent his anger, even if he dealt with Chen Guan later, he wouldn't be able to get rid of this frustration.

At this moment, she felt superior, triumphant, and even had a sense of accomplishment that showed contempt for Chen Guan.

"This Madam Qi is truly someone who seeks revenge without holding a grudge for long," Gu Shan said coldly.

"This story teaches us that you should never offend a woman, especially a powerful one," the purple-robed man said with a smile.

“I don’t like people like that,” Gu Shan said.

“There’s nothing we can do if you don’t like her. She paid such a high price to help the Lord of War solve his problem, so we have to keep our promise. Fortunately, we’ve done what we were supposed to do, so we don’t have to put up with that woman’s attitude anymore. If you don’t like her, you can just stop seeing her.” The man in purple robes said.

Gu Shan sighed: "It's a pity about Xiu Jieming. He was a rare talent. Perhaps if he had become the presiding judge, things would have been different in China."

"Nothing is different. No matter who is the presiding judge, China is still China, unless the Heavenly Kings are all gone." Although the purple-robed man was trying to comfort Lonely Mountain, he also revealed some of the essential truths.

Wang Lian, who was standing to the side, said, "Now that the Lord of War has been completely unsealed, his strength is no longer limited and he will soon reach his peak. Your efforts will soon be rewarded."

The man in purple robes laughed and said, "Of course there will be rewards. Not only will the Chief of the Army be re-elected, but Qi Tianxin will also benefit the Dushan Sect in the future. Many things will become much easier."

Wang Lian glanced at Chen Guan in the Xiu family camp and laughed, "Chen Guan has chosen the wrong side this time. His future days may not be easy."

“With both old and new grudges, Qi Tianxin and Feng Wuci will definitely not let him off the hook after the election. This time, no one can stop them,” the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers said thoughtfully.

Now that her problem of being beautiful but short-lived has been resolved, and she no longer needs to rely on others for survival, her previous thoughts of switching allegiance to Chen Guan and others have faded considerably.

Wang Lian is obedient enough, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers now thinks it's not bad.

Most people here now share the same mindset as them.

Only a few people thought differently, and Ji Liuying was one of them. She glanced at Feng Wuci and thought to herself, "Can't things just stay the same? Why did you provoke him?"

Xiu Jieming, who was on stage, knew everything that Chen Guan had done.

He had previously believed that Chen Guan's actions were intended to sow discord between Feng Wuci and Qi Tianxin, and to undermine Qi Tianxin's resolve.

He did a fairly successful job, but it didn't have much of an impact on Qi Tianxin.

At this moment, Feng Wuci turned the tables on Xiu Jieming, who knew that a smart man like Chen Guan would not accept her bet.

Xiu Jieming knew it was difficult for him to turn the tables, and Chen Guan also knew it was difficult for him to turn the tables. Now, if he tried to trick Feng Wuci, he would no longer be able to fool her.

"Of course, I'm always ready to gamble if you're willing to."

Upon hearing Chen Guan's answer, Xiu Jieming's pupils contracted slightly.
