God of Pets-Chapter 482: My Wife

"Qin Qiu, what are you doing here?" Gong Mingwang stared at Qin Qiu and asked.

"I should be the one asking you that. Why did you come to my territory without even a word?" Qin Qiu said loudly.

"Since when did the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm become your Qin Family’s territory? Who allocated the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm to your Qin Family, and who agreed to it?" Gong Mingwang said coldly.

"Whether the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm will belong to our Qin Family in the future is uncertain, but for now, it belongs to me, Qin Qiu. You can’t possibly be unaware of the Giant Nest Pact, can you?" Qin Qiu said calmly.

"There’s a giant nest of your Qin Family here?" Gong Mingwang was slightly taken aback.

Of course, he knew about the Giant Nest Pact, which was an agreement initiated by the Ten Great Families due to the previous chaos in the Spirit Ruins Secret Realm. It stipulated that within the range of a verified and established giant nest, no other forces were allowed to hunt or engage in conflicts.

This was to ensure that the giant nests could be used as trading platforms, as no one would dare to trade there without any security assurances.

Qin Qiu pointed in the direction he came from. "See for yourself."

Gong Mingwang walked to the Void Telescope used for scouting and looked in the direction Qin Qiu pointed. He indeed saw a giant nest resembling a sycamore tree without leaves.

"Even if there’s a giant nest of your Qin Family here, we haven’t broken the Pact, hunted any Secret Spirits, or had conflicts with anyone. You, Young Master Qin, shouldn’t have a say in this." Gong Mingwang said.

"If you haven’t done anything, then what are you doing here?" Qin Qiu asked.

"What we’re doing has nothing to do with you, Young Master Qin." Gong Mingwang said.

"If I don’t see it, it’s naturally unrelated to me. If I see it, then it is related to me." Qin Qiu said as if it was a matter of course.

"What do you want to do?" Gong Mingwang frowned.

"Take your Flying Dragon Knight Order and leave immediately." Qin Qiu wasn’t trying to make things difficult for them, just wanted them to leave.

"Whether we leave or not is not for us to decide, you’ll have to ask him." Gong Mingwang’s deputy commander Li Hui pointed to Chen Guan.

Qin Qiu was slightly surprised and looked at Chen Guan, only to realize he didn’t recognize this person.

"Which person from the Celestial Void Palace are you?" Qin Qiu asked, recalling.

Gong Family’s people with a higher status than Gong Mingwang were on record with the Qin Family, and Qin Qiu had seen them. This person wasn’t among them.

So Qin Qiu assumed he must be a high-ranking member of the Celestial Void Palace, a force of the Gong Family that also recruited many powerful outsiders.

"I’m Zi Donglai, not someone from the Celestial Void Palace." Chen Guan said.

"That’s odd. Since you’re not from the Celestial Void Palace, how do you have authority over the Celestial Void Palace’s Flying Dragon Knight Order?" Qin Qiu asked with interest, scrutinizing Chen Guan.

"After subduing them, they’ll naturally obey." Chen Guan said unceremoniously.

He could clearly see through Gong Mingwang and Li Hui’s intentions, so he didn’t spare them any face.

Qin Qiu laughed upon hearing this. "So the Flying Dragon Knight Order was captured by someone. Now that’s an interesting piece of news. If others find out, they’ll surely be delighted."

"Zi Donglai, you’re not bad, but unfortunately, I have matters to attend to right now, so it’s inconvenient to chat more. I must ask you to take your captives and leave now."

"We haven’t violated any rules here, so why must we leave?" Chen Guan pondered and asked.

"Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t matter if you stayed here. But now, several families are trying to break the Wall of Sighs here. Fearing that it might affect you and that you might interfere, we must ask you to leave." Qin Qiu spoke straightforwardly, though somewhat domineeringly.

"I wonder if I could participate in your research?" Chen Guan’s heart stirred, and he asked.

This Wall of Sighs was too mysterious. He dared not risk using his Evil Spirit Blood Sword. If he could join Qin Qiu and their plan, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

"We’ve no collaborations with the Celestial Void Palace." Qin Qiu said.

"I’m not of the Celestial Void Palace." Chen Guan said.

"Then state your origins." Qin Qiu said.

"If I can’t make my origins clear, Qin Qiu would never let me participate in this plan. Yet I can’t reveal my true identity." Chen Guan pondered, looked at Qin Qiu, and said, "Could I request Young Master Qin to speak in private? My identity is rather special and can only be disclosed to Young Master Qin to keep it confidential."

"This person was never one for many words." Qin Qiu was quite intrigued by someone capable and daring enough to capture the Flying Dragon Knight Order and Gong Mingwang.

So immediately, Qin Qiu and the other two retracted their giant pets and landed on the back of the Sea Patrol Giant Turtle.

"Please, Young Master Qin." Chen Guan invited Qin Qiu into the hall.

Qin Qiu instructed the other two to wait outside the hall and went in with Chen Guan.

Fujimura Reiko closed the door from outside and stood by to prevent eavesdropping.

Inside the palace, Chen Guan said to Qin Qiu, "What I say today is only effective here. Once outside this room, no matter what Young Master Qin says, I won’t acknowledge it. I hope for Young Master Qin’s understanding."

"No problem." Qin Qiu nodded.

"My family’s name is Jin, and the name is Taohua." Chen Guan looked at Qin Qiu and said.

Qin Qiu looked surprised upon hearing it and believed him somewhat.

The Female Demon Jin Taohua could be considered an enemy of the Divine Land. Even wanting to hide one’s identity, no one would dare pretend to be related to the Female Demon.

"I’ve heard that Jin Taohua is extremely beautiful, with a teardrop mole at the corner of her left eye, making her appear pitifully endearing and unforgettable. Is this true?" Qin Qiu didn’t become hostile just because Chen Guan was associated with the Female Demon.

Chen Guan knew he had likely passed the test. During his interactions with the Female Demon, he had heard her speak ill of the Gong Family and a few others from the Ten Great Families, but spoke respectfully of the Qin Family and others.

Apparently, during her siege, the Qin Family was not among those attacking her, so Chen Guan decided to try his luck.

If he guessed wrong, it wouldn’t matter; if Qin Qiu made things difficult, he would take Qin Qiu down and claim their results.

"Young Master Qin might have misremembered. My lady doesn’t have a teardrop mole." Chen Guan was very well aware of this from his time with Jin Taohua and wasn’t afraid of Qin Qiu’s test.

Qin Qiu nodded. "I wonder what your relationship with Jin Taohua is, Brother Zi?"

"Taohua is my wife." Chen Guan said calmly.

Qin Qiu was stunned momentarily, gazing at Chen Guan for a while before saying, "Brother Zi... truly a frank person..."

He really couldn’t imagine anyone impersonating the Female Demon’s husband, nor dare to seize the Celestial Void Palace’s Flying Dragon Knight Order; only someone with an extremely deep relationship with the Female Demon would do such a thing.

"Brother Qin, I wonder if I could join in your plan to break the Wall of Sighs?" Chen Guan asked.

"There’s no reason not to, but Brother Zi, with your identity, it would be best not to mention it again. Outside this room, I’ve heard nothing." Qin Qiu smiled and said. He had no enmity with Jin Taohua but didn’t want to be associated with her, so he pretended not to know Chen Guan’s identity.
