God of Pets

Chapter 866: Tech Guru?

"This little panda is not just at the seventh sense; even the Secret Realm aura has manifested, surely it possesses the eighth sense. With the support from the Secret Realm, its Spirit Medium power must have received a massive enhancement, enabling it to consecutively use Spirit Medium power for transforming the Secret Spirit Pet..." Ji Nan and the others exchanged glances, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.Some people are lucky enough to obtain one or even several rare pets, which is not unusual.

For a superfamily like the Ji Family, what others see as fortune or resources is nothing to them, and can easily be obtained.

Like for ordinary people, diamonds are extremely precious treasures, and a diamond weighing several carats can be considered a family heirloom.

But for capitalists who monopolize diamond mines, it’s nothing worth showing off, and if someone flaunts diamonds before them, it would appear laughable.

However, raising a little panda to the eighth sense is not a simple task.

Acquiring a little panda is easy for the Ji Family, but feeding it to the eighth sense, even they cannot achieve.

This involves not only resources but also technical issues.

Just like owning resources like steel and oil is straightforward, but turning those resources into rockets, and using rockets to send satellites or spaceships into space and let them operate as predetermined takes an immense amount of resources and unique technical support that is inaccessible to ordinary people.

For ordinary people, it’s just a little panda.

But to people like Ji Nan of these big families, it reveals Chen Guan’s capabilities behind it.

First, Chen Guan surely possesses an abundance of resources, otherwise, he wouldn’t spend so much on raising a single panda.

Second, Chen Guan has strong developmental capabilities, possibly a research team, otherwise how could he conquer the challenge of raising pandas that even the Ten Great Families couldn’t overcome?

If there’s no team, it’s even more astounding, indicating Chen Guan himself is a technical giant.

Ji Nan and the others speculated that if this person is not from the Ten Great Families, he likely is a technical titan himself.

Little did they know, Chen Guan raised the panda purely by piling resources, without much technology involved.

Ji Nan and the others were fixated on Chen Guan, knowing that Ji Liuying is not foolish enough to acknowledge someone from another family as a mentor, but still needed confirmation just in case.

Looking at Chen Guan who had subdued the Secret Spirit of Tianmu Evil Ghost, Ji Nan asked, "Who exactly are you?"

"Is my identity that important?" Chen Guan had anticipated this, showing no surprise, and addressed them coolly.

"We didn’t intend to target you, but Liuying is an important talent for the Ji Family, and cannot afford any misfortune. We have a responsibility to both her and the Ji Family, so could you reveal your identity?" Ji Nan said, "We harbor no ill intent toward you regardless of your identity."

"My master is alright, and not from the Ten Great Families." Ji Liuying tried to speak up for Chen Guan.

"No worries." Chen Guan smiled at Ji Liuying and removed his helmet.

"Chen Guan..." Ji Nan and the others, seeing Chen Guan’s appearance clearly, were immensely shocked.

They never expected Ji Liuying’s mentor to actually be Chen Guan.

Upon making this discovery, Ji Nan and the others felt relieved, then overjoyed.

Chen Guan was not part of the Ten Great Families and was rather unfriendly with some of them.

The Ji Family and Chen Guan had no major issues between them.

Given Chen Guan’s technical prowess and now with a favorable relationship with Ji Liuying, it was good for both Ji Liuying and the Ji Family.

Chen Guan and Zi Donglai were both acknowledged as potentially reaching the Celestial King Level someday, and Ji Liuying associating with them was beneficial for the Ji Family, which had lost its own Celestial King.

Of course, acquiring the technique for raising pandas would be even better.

"So it’s Mr. Chen, no wonder you choose to hide your identity. We’ve been presumptuous, but rest assured Mr. Chen, we will not reveal this matter whatsoever. You can stay here peacefully." Ji Nan assured quickly.

They thought Chen Guan might be apprehensive, fearing Chief Judge Qi might trouble him.

Yet they were unaware that Chief Judge Qi had already approached Chen Guan but couldn’t apprehend him.

"Thank you for keeping my secret." Chen Guan didn’t elaborate, simply putting his helmet back on, and looking at Ji Liuying, who was staring at him dumbfounded.

Ji Liuying initially thought the Ming King was apparently young, but actually an ancient relic who lived for countless years.

Now she realized, the Ming King was Chen Guan, the one who clashed with the Ancestral Court and defeated the Ancestral Court thoroughly in the Southern Heavenly Kingdom.

"He is Chen Guan? How could he possibly have connections with a Celestial King? Teach a Celestial King? Is he deceiving me? Or, is someone else teaching the Celestial King, and he’s related to that person, thus knowing the Secret Techniques and Innate Eight Techniques?"

"With his age, it’s impossible he has so many ties with the Celestial King himself. But if it’s indeed him contacting the Celestial King...then his talent and abilities probably have reached unimaginable levels..."

Ji Liuying’s mind twisted with various thoughts, leaving her unsure how to face Chen Guan.

Seeing Chen Guan looking at her, Ji Liuying unexpectedly felt a strange unease, instinctively turning her face away from his gaze.

"Liuying, since you have chosen Mr. Chen as your mentor, you must follow Mr. Chen and learn diligently without arrogance or complacency. If there’s anything you don’t understand, seek guidance from Mr. Chen." Ji Nan and the others, knowing Ming King was Chen Guan, were more convinced that Chen Guan was a technical titan.

Although Chen Guan was powerful in the Grotto Heaven, he still lacked the foundation of a Great Cave Heaven. Raising the panda to this level surely stemmed from unique cultivation techniques.

Now they hoped Ji Liuying would learn from Chen Guan rigorously and ideally acquire those panda cultivation techniques as well.

Given the Ji Family’s wealth, having the techniques meant replicating plenty of pandas wouldn’t be difficult.

The journey ahead turned very delightful.

Initially, Chen Guan intended to leave after acquiring the Tianmu Evil Ghost.

But unable to resist the Ji Family elders’ cordial invitations, coupled with him being Ji Liuying’s mentor nominally, he couldn’t just leave after getting what he wanted, hence stayed to accompany Ji Liuying in completing the trial.

Throughout the journey, the Ji Family elders treated Chen Guan with utmost care, leading others to mistakenly believe the protection was for Chen Guan.
