God of Pets-Chapter 610: Equivalent Exchange

Ximen Bing was shocked, she didn't know how Chen Guan just touched her wrist and suddenly her body wouldn't obey her, this was scarier than being chased by the King of Divine Martial earlier.

"You... who are you..." Ximen Bing asked anxiously.

Chen Guan manipulated the immobile Ximen Bing like a puppet, placing her beside him, then looked at her with a half-smile and said, "You still want to ask who I am? I thought you came and went as you please, without caring who I am."

Ximen Bing forced a smile and said, "I was in a helpless situation just now, you saw it too, the King of Divine Martial wanted to kill me, I could only hide here for a while."

"But you didn't ask me if I was willing to let you hide." Chen Guan said lightly.

"I'm sorry, I was in such a hurry just now, I'm the daughter of Ximen Alcoholic, you saved me today, I will surely repay you in the future." Ximen Bing said honestly.

"That's where you're wrong." Chen Guan's face turned cold.

"What did I do wrong? As long as you tell me, I'll change right away." Ximen Bing clearly knew the way of the world and didn't argue, showing an attitude of wanting to correct her mistake.

"Showing kindness is like doing business; a small person like me helping you is like doing business with my life. The business is successful, yet you want to owe a debt, isn't that wrong?" Chen Guan said.

Ximen Bing looked puzzled, she had never heard of someone comparing kindness to business.

But when under another's roof, one must lower their head. Ximen Bing quickly said, "I have an Unparalleled Pet on me, I can give it to you as a thank-you gift, benefactor."

"Is my life-saving business only worth an Unparalleled Pet? Then my life is really too cheap." Chen Guan snorted coldly.

"I also have an Unparalleled Secret Treasure which I can offer to you right now." Ximen Bing quickly added.

"Is it that sword just now?" Chen Guan asked.

"No, no, without that Flying Sword, I have no ability to escape far in the Celestial Essence Sea, I can't give it to you right now."

After a pause, Ximen Bing continued, "When I fought with them earlier, all my other pets and Secret Treasures were destroyed, I truly have nothing else to offer right now. I assure you, once I return home, I'll properly thank you."

"Why do you love owing debts so much? I'm running a small business here, can't afford credit." Chen Guan sighed.

"I can give you an Unparalleled Pet and an Unparalleled Secret Treasure first. You're a magnanimous person, help me this one time, once I'm free I'll certainly shower you with treasures..." Ximen Bing tried to persuade Chen Guan.

"Don't make me repeat the same words. This business wasn't something I sought, you came to me for it. Now you've gained a benefit yet refuse to pay the price, do you think there's such a good thing in the world?"

"Then what do you want?" Ximen Bing asked helplessly.

"Simple, equal exchange, I saved your life, you must offer something worth as much as your life in return." Chen Guan looked Ximen Bing up and down and said, "Since you don't have anything of equal value, I see you're still quite presentable, you can barely catch the eye, so let's consider you settling the debt by becoming my Ninth Concubine."

Ximen Bing's eyes widened instantly, she was furious inside: "What concubine, and the ninth at that, this person is truly shameless."

"Benefactor, my shallow beauty wouldn't catch your fancy. How about this, come with me, once we return, I'll immediately present a variety of treasures to you, ensuring your satisfaction." Ximen Bing suppressed her urge to curse, forcing a smile.

"Have you ever seen a fool of a robber taking a hostage to the police station for ransom?" Chen Guan asked.

"No." Ximen Bing shook her head.

"So, are you suggesting I perform such a play by taking you back and then letting your father, Ximen Alcoholic, kill me?" Chen Guan sneered.

"How would I? You are my life-saving benefactor, not a kidnapper, how could I repay kindness with enmity?" Ximen Bing quickly defended herself.

"Stop the nonsense, now there are two paths for you, one is to become my Ninth Concubine." Chen Guan paused here, without continuing.

"What is the other path?" Ximen Bing asked earnestly; she knew the other wouldn't be a good one.

"The other is to repay with your family's 'Ghost Immortal Step,' 'Ghost Immortal Step' for your life, you're still in profit." Chen Guan said seriously.

Ximen Bing realized she had escaped one wolf's lair only to enter another, this one more ruthless and greedy than the King of Divine Martial.

"'Ghost Immortal Step' is my father's secret skill, I don't even know it." Ximen Bing said bitterly.

"Then become my Ninth Concubine, our wedding sedan is ready, let's be a pair of wild mandarin ducks here." Chen Guan said, reaching to undo Ximen Bing's collar.

"No… no… I'll give you Ghost Immortal Step…" Ximen Bing cried out in surprise.

"No, I've changed my mind, recently feeling fiery, eight concubines at home aren't enough to serve me, having a ninth is better than any Ghost Immortal Step..." Chen Guan continued to unbutton Ximen Bing's collar, failing to undo it, resorting directly to tearing, revealing her inner garments and pale, smooth shoulders.

"Benefactor... benefactor... listen to me... there are many like me, but my family's 'Ghost Immortal Step' is one of a kind in the world, missing this chance, there won't be another store selling it..." Ximen Bing shouted anxiously.

"Seems somewhat reasonable, when you put it like that, 'Ghost Immortal Step' does seem more valuable than you." Chen Guan pondered.

"It definitely is, how could I compare with the Unrivaled 'Ghost Immortal Step,' which even the Ten Great Families covet, you'd be adding wings to a tiger, becoming a renowned figure, by then any kind of woman would be yours for the taking?"

"Not just one concubine, even ten or eight, beauties from all over would flock into your embrace…" Ximen Bing became increasingly enthusiastic.

"Makes sense, alright then, I'll agree to use 'Ghost Immortal Step' as your repayment." Chen Guan nodded.

"Benefactor, let me go first, I'll give you the formula for Ghost Immortal Step right now." Ximen Bing said.

"Release you? Your Flying Sword is so fast, if you run, could I catch you? Let's discuss like this." Chen Guan said lightly.

"The formula and critical points are numerous, if not written, there will be unclear parts, practicing could lead to accidents." Ximen Bing earnestly said: "Benefactor, you've saved my life, I wouldn't dream of repaying kindness with betrayal."

"True, you wouldn't be the kind to repay kindness with enmity, right?" Chen Guan looked at Ximen Bing and asked.

"Of course not." Ximen Bing vowed sincerely.

"Alright then." Chen Guan pressed Ximen Bing's shoulder, releasing the Disabling Fist from her body.

Ximen Bing immediately felt a tremor through her body, as if something inside had been unblocked, regaining sensation and control over her body.

Buzz!

Ximen Bing, like a phantom, in an instant darted out of the Ghost Palanquin, escaping hundreds of meters away, calling forth her Flying Sword, stepping onto it and soaring through the sky like a Sword Immortal.

"It's not even dark yet... stop dreaming... go home, sleep... everything is possible in dreams..." Ximen Bing flew away gleefully using the Flying Sword.

But not far, Ximen Bing suddenly felt her eyes and mouth twitching uncontrollably, her head pounding rhythmically, her body refusing to listen, and she tumbled headlong off her Flying Sword.
