God of Pets-Chapter 515: Is He Human?
Fujimura Reiko was waiting for Chen Guan to come back when she suddenly heard a commotion from the front.
She left her pet to guard the gate and walked to the platform to look outside. What she saw left her stunned.
Qin Qiu and the others who had left earlier had all returned and were landing on the platform of the Giant Tree Nest.
And outside the Giant Tree Nest, there stood the enormous Giant Secret Spirit. Inconceivably, a person was standing on top of its head.
"Boss!" Fujimura Reiko squinted to see the person’s appearance and, though accustomed to strange sights, couldn’t help but open her mouth wide.
"Wisteria, get someone to move the stuff down," Chen Guan said to Fujimura Reiko.
Fujimura Reiko knew what Chen Guan meant by "stuff," but she couldn’t move the remaining meat and bones of the Red Bear by herself. Just as she was about to call on Gong Mingwang and the Flying Dragon Knight Order for help, she saw Qin Qiu, Chu Jianfeng, Shang Tianyin, Jiang Sanxin, and others willingly come over to assist.
Several people personally helped, even summoning their pets to aid in moving the remaining meat and bones of the Red Bear out of the tree hole and placing them by the riverbank.
After all this, Chen Guan called Fujimura Reiko over, and everyone else returned to the tree. Only then did he say to the Giant, "Begin."
Under everyone’s eyes, the Giant walked to the riverbank, its forepaws glowing white, and pressed them onto the river surface.
In the next moment, layers of water ripples appeared on the river surface, with those ripples glowing and undulating continuously, and the Giant Tree Nest slowly descended into the water.
Everyone looked at Chen Guan on the bank with complex expressions, their emotions beyond words.
Wang Lian and the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers both had complicated feelings; this Zi Donglai had become unreadable to them.
Wang Lian originally intended to subdue Zi Donglai under her command, but now she dared not have such thoughts anymore.
This being was as simple as a god; even geniuses of the Ten Great Families seemed like the difference between fireflies and the bright moon compared to him. It was unimaginable. What kind of origin did Zi Donglai possess, or perhaps he wasn’t human at all?
The Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers was also feeling complex. She had initially thought to evaluate whether Zi Donglai had the qualifications to become her new host. However, now she suddenly realized that if Zi Donglai could become her host, it seemed rather she would be the one climbing up.
At least for now, with the power Zi Donglai demonstrated, even at the same level, she might not necessarily be able to win at her full strength.
"Zi God... until we meet again..." As the Giant Tree Nest gradually sank, Wang Lian, almost about to plunge into the river, suddenly smiled and waved, her face blossoming like a flower, shouting to Chen Guan on the bank.
"Zi God... until we meet again..." With Wang Lian’s shout, others followed her in calling the same.
Previously, they called Chen Guan "Brother Zi," but now it felt inappropriate. Since Wang Lian addressed him this way, they followed suit, feeling it proper.
Even in the eyes of these prideful days, Zi Donglai seemed like a godly figure.
Until the Giant Tree fully submerged into the river, and the group found themselves back outside the Wall of Sighs, looking at the void and chaotic Wall of Sighs, everyone felt as if they had awoken from a dream.
"That Zi Donglai... he’s human, right..." Shang Tianyin still felt somewhat unreal, everything about the Secret Garden and Zi Donglai like a dream, so fantastical, so unbelievable.
"I don’t know. Such a person, whether or not he’s human, is no longer important. Even if human, he’s a god-like human." Chu Jianfeng said with a bitter smile: "I have practiced hard for so many years, thinking that even if I couldn’t reach the pinnacle of the pyramid, I should be among the top at the same level. But after seeing Zi Donglai today, I realized that while I stand at the pyramid’s peak, someone already stands in the clouds."
"A god-like human, ultimately still human. If he’s human, he can be chased. We may not surpass him today, but that doesn’t mean we can’t surpass him in this lifetime. It just means we have to raise our goals." Jiang Sanxin said.
"It’s fortunate for this world to have someone like Zi God," Qin Qiu exclaimed. "With such a person transcending the era, humanity will be led into a new age. The darkness has been illuminated, there’s a beacon ahead, and we just need to move forward."

Gong Mingwang sat dumbfounded, listening to the Flying Dragon Knight Order’s executives discussing Zi Donglai.
Without having gone or seen Zi Donglai’s magical presence with their own eyes, they dared not believe the accounts.
They had never heard of a Hidden Power that could turn a person directly into a mountain-like giant; it was too fantastical.
However, regardless, Zi Donglai had let them go, without annihilating them or leaving them in the Secret Garden as slaves.
"So, the power of one person can be this strong." Gong Mingwang didn’t listen to their discussions, only feeling confused in his mind.
He hadn’t much advocated personal force before, thinking this era was no longer for personal heroism.
But this journey to the Secret Garden and knowing Zi Donglai had shocked him immensely, almost reshaping his worldview.
"Individual power can indeed be strong, to the point of incredibility. However, the future must belong to the team. When many Zi Donglais appear, he will just be an individual within a team... The key is... how to nurture many Zi Donglais..." Gong Mingwang pondered.
Gu Shan and Purple Robe were also discussing Zi Donglai.
"Do you think he’s human?" Purple Robe asked.
"I don’t think so." Gu Shan answered.
"Then, is he a Secret God?" Purple Robe asked again.
"I think... not quite..." Gu Shan replied.
"Then what is he?" Purple Robe asked speechlessly.
"How would I know?" Gu Shan shrugged.
Regardless of what others gossiped about, Chen Guan didn’t care. At this moment, he was celebrating.
He had the Giant help him pick Heavenly and Earthly Treasures back, not those discarded, but the truly top-quality ones.
Chen Guan, eating a Vermilion Fruit the size of a tomato in one bite, could be described as enjoying himself immensely.
With various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures at his disposal, the Primordial Energy, untouched for so long, finally had movement.
Before long, Chen Guan’s Level increased once again, reaching Level 22, with Primordial Energy doubling once more.
With these endless Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, Chen Guan felt that he shouldn’t take long to reach Level 30 and undergo the Fourth Awakening.
Chen Guan put some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures into Yellow Mud Island, partly for his pet to eat, and partly as reserves.
Not knowing if he could enter again next time, before leaving, he planned to take as much as he could.
