God of Pets

Chapter 910 You've Misunderstood
As the soldiers continued their attack, even before Feng Wuci had personally made a move, she had already begun to consider retreating.

Because she saw something familiar in Chen Guan—a powerful feeling that she couldn't fathom, as if he were high above her.

She had seen this feeling before in her own mother, in Ji Beizhu, and later in Qi Tianxin.

If life were only like the first meeting, perhaps Feng Wuci would have been able to remember this feeling forever.

But as time passed, as people became more familiar with each other, and as the boundaries were repeatedly tested, this feeling eventually crumbled, leaving her with no more sensation.

However, Feng Wuci once again sensed that unsettling aura emanating from Chen Guan.

"Let's go." Feng Wuci wanted to retract his Void Night Veil and escape from this void and darkness.

But as soon as she spoke, Feng Wuci's expression changed, because she discovered that her Void Night Veil was completely unresponsive, motionless, and still enveloped the courtyard in nothingness and darkness.

One of the beads in Chen Guan's hand shimmered with a strange light, which froze the void and darkness, and even the owner of the Void Night Veil could not take it back.

Ordinary people can't master the Mystic Pearls because they require too much vital energy, making it impossible to use them continuously, or even to use several at the same time.

However, in Chen Guan's hands, these Mystic Pearls were like children's toys, changing as he moved his fingers.

Each of the Mystic Pearls shone with a mysterious light, and the soldiers' attacks became increasingly ineffective, unable to even damage a single blade of grass or tree in the courtyard.

Despite her best efforts, Feng Wuci was unable to retract the Void Night Veil. Shocked and furious, she could only unleash her full power, summoning one secret treasure after another and summoning one Nine-Awakening Pet after another, all of which hurtled towards Chen Guan.

Chen Guan twitched his fingers slightly, and most of the Mystic Pearl Chain in his palm lit up, filling the courtyard with a strange radiance.

In that instant, everything seemed to freeze.

The burst of energy in the air was frozen in time, like the aurora borealis frozen in the sky.

The pets remained pouncing, the treasure hovered in the air as if painted on, and the soldiers maintained all sorts of strange postures with different facial expressions.

Even the aura of the secret realm surrounding them seemed to have transformed into the halo of an oil painting, remaining unchanged.

Feng Wuci was also frozen in place, her mind clear, sensing everything that was happening, but she could only watch it all unfold.

Chen Guan finally stood up from his chair, holding the beaded chain, and walked slowly through the courtyard. He was now the only person in the courtyard who could move.

Wherever Chen Guan went, the force around him pushed aside the frozen energy, pets, treasures, and soldiers, until he reached Feng Wuci.

“Madam Qi, it seems I will have to disappoint you today. You cannot take anyone away from here, nor can you kill anyone here.” Chen Guan said, reaching out to pull off the veil from Feng Wuci’s face.

It must be said that Feng Wuci certainly has the qualities to be considered a femme fatale. Her appearance is not particularly stunning, but her features are delicate and her skin is flawless. Even after hundreds of years, she still maintains a very youthful figure and temperament, looking no different from a girl in her twenties, and even has a touch of girlish naiveté.

Maintaining a good figure is easy, but to maintain a youthful appearance requires a youthful mindset.

To put it another way, it means that over the past thousand years, Feng Wuci's mindset and comprehension have not grown at all. She is just an old woman who thinks she is a young girl, completely lacking the wisdom and maturity that corresponds to her age.

"You mean to say, 'If you have the guts, I'll kill you,' right?" Chen Guan looked at Feng Wuci's eyes and said calmly, "You think you're the most beloved daughter of the Heavenly King Feng, so I don't dare to kill you, right?"

“That’s right, I won’t kill you, but not because of Feng Tianwang, but because of the value you possess,” Chen Guan said calmly.

Feng Wuci was taken aback. She looked at Chen Guan with a strange expression, thinking to herself, "Could it be that he wants to..."

As he thought about it, Feng Wuci's eyes gradually became more strange and complicated, even showing some inexplicable expectation.

But Chen Guan's next words shattered all her unrealistic fantasies, almost driving Feng Wuci mad.

"Death is the ultimate destination for mankind. You don't deserve that destination, so you should live. Your life is worthless to others, but it should still be worth some money to King Feng. Perhaps it's also worth some money to Judge Qi, but how much is hard to say. I don't think Judge Qi would like such a vicious woman who acts like a young girl even at her age. If I kill you, he'll probably be overjoyed."

Chen Guan looked at Feng Wuci's murderous gaze and smiled as he continued, "You mean to say that if you were alive, you would definitely not let me go, right?"

“I think you’ve misunderstood again. I never said I would let you go, nor did I say I would let you live.” Chen Guan’s smile gradually faded, and his eyes became increasingly sinister: “I will use you to blackmail Qi Tianxin and Feng Tianwang until I have squeezed out all their value, until they are unwilling to pay you even a penny more, until they completely despise you.”

"By then, all your value will be left is this body. I still won't kill you then, but I'll raise you like a pig, extracting your essence and vitality every day to feed my pet. I have a pet that especially loves to drink blood. It should really like the blood of someone as pampered as you, Madam Qi, who has eaten countless rare and precious herbs. It will be happy to drink fresh blood every day."

Feng Wuci's eyes had changed from resentment and anger at the beginning to horror, fear, unease and panic now.

"You mean to say that the Heavenly King of Wind won't let me go, right?" Chen Guan's lips curled up slightly: "You're wrong, completely wrong, because the person who treated you like this isn't me at all, and the person who blackmailed the Heavenly King isn't me either. Why would they come looking for me?"

"You mean they won't believe it?" Chen Guan smiled, clapped his hands lightly, and a person walked out of the house.

When Feng Wuci saw that person smiling at her, her heart sank into an abyss. Her face was filled with uncontrollable terror. If she hadn't been unable to move, she would probably be trembling like a leaf.

"Master, please rest assured... leave this woman to me..." Ji Fenglie smiled, but his eyes were full of resentment, cruelty, and ruthlessness. He reached out and swung his knife, chopping off all five fingers of Feng Wuci's hand. "I will find someone to send it to King Feng and Qi Tianxin. I believe they will be very happy to receive such a gift."

"Take good care of her." Chen Guan's eyes were cold, devoid of any pity.

The sins should not extend to family members. From the moment Feng Wuci stepped into the Chen family, in Chen Guan's eyes, she was no longer a human being. Chen Guan has never had any pity for beasts.
