Monster Pet Evolution - Chapter 824: Seven Saints United
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast had time abilities and could run away, but Tempered Sword Grass and the Storm Saint Lion have no such ability.
Olu, who sat to Gao Peng’s left, put down the console in its hands. It looked where the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast had fled. “Olu wants to take a look at its godhood.”
“Okay, can you catch up with it?” Gao Peng asked.
“Olu’s the fastest!” Olu disappeared on the spot. A minute later, it appeared next to Gao Peng, pinching a transparent godhood in its hand.
The godhood was colorless and transparent. Some viscous fluid seemed to flow inside it.
From its appearance, it seemed like the Time godhood had similarities to Spatial Gods.

Olu stroked and played with the Time godhood seriously, blue light glimmering in its eyes. It continuously absorbed the essence of this Time godhood.
The Time godhood ultimately solidified, turning into gray marble. A strong wind blew by and turned it into dust that disappeared in Olu’s palm.
Gao Peng didn’t ask what had happened to the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast, but since it’d had its godhood dug out, it was probably not in a good condition even if it was still alive.
…
With a rumble, the raging Thunder Dragon ripped Tempered Sword Grass apart.
Tempered Sword Grass let out a shrill cry, its entire leaf blade falling apart. “You’ll follow our footsteps one day!”
After seeing the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast get away and Tempered Sword Grass falling, the Storm Saint Lion started to panic.
“We’ll battle next time,” the Storm Saint Lion said with a tough expression.
Summoning out a typhoon to block everyone’s view, the Storm Saint Lion merged into the gust and tried to flee.
“Where are you going?” Desolion was furious. “We’ve been fighting for so long, it’d be an embarrassment if I just let you get away,” it thought.
“Ah!” Halfway out, the Storm Saint Lion let out a shrill cry and tumbled out of the wind.
A bloody wound tore through its abdomen; its torso was nearly chopped in half at the waist.
In the distance was the sight of a fleeing Flowing Light.
Flowing Light’s face was stern as it dragged two blade arms behind itself. It thought victoriously, “I’ve finally made this cut.”
In this moment, Flowing Light was completely absorbed in its thoughts.
“Gao Peng told me this: a true assassin, whether they hit the enemy or not, has to flee into the distance right after their strike. That’s the sign of a qualified killer.
“I must look so impressive! Are Gao Peng and the rest looking at my back with admiration?” Flowing Light lowered its head. “Don’t be proud, or your crown will fall.”
Gao Peng stared at Flowing Light’s wretched back with a strange expression. It looked like a short criminal who was trying to run away. Why did it look so funny?
“Frost Rule—Icebound Zero Degree!”
Desolion leapt on top of the Storm Saint Lion, super cold air rising from its body. The Storm Saint Lion was instantly frozen.
“All right.” Gao Peng clapped his hands.
This was just the appetizer. The real meal was the upcoming storm. Once they toughed out this storm, the Human Clan would have passed the trial.
“Before they react, let’s take our spoils,” Gao Peng said to Da Zi and the rest.
“There are spoils?” Da Zi was puzzled.
“The treasuries of these three countries,” Gao Peng reminded it quietly.
Da Zi came to a realization. “Right, right, right, that’s ours. Go, Gao Peng!”
“Jeez.” Goldie rubbed its shoulders, lower back, butt, and face. “Why does everything hurt so much? Gao Peng, is my handsome face disfigured?” Golder ran over and crouched in front of Gao Peng.
Gao Peng examined Goldie closely, even squeezed its steel-like face, and answered in confusion, “But you’re fine?”
“No, my face is definitely disfigured!” Goldie said angrily, its cheeks puffed out to be bigger than steamed buns.
“Fine, fine, fine. Whatever you say,” Gao Peng said helplessly. This creature’s face was tougher than a rock.
“Is this considered a work-related injury?” Goldie chuckled when it heard Gao Peng.
“…” Gao Peng finally knew what it wanted.
“I guess.”
“I want two percent of what’s in the treasuries!” Goldie made an exorbitant demand.
“You want that much?! Why are you so greedy? How about this—I’ll give you 200,000, and I’ll keep your share of the treasure.””Gao Peng raised an eyebrow.
Goldie said with a hurt expression, “Is even one percent too much? Gao Yue Yue, you don’t like me anymore.”
“It’s not like I’m swallowing your share. Think about it, I feed and clothe you, while you’re just leaving me your money for safekeeping, and I’ll give it to you whenever you need to use it. When have I ever cheated you?” Gao Peng sighed, saying downheartedly, “If you don’t trust me, then I’ll give it back to you. Goldie’s all grown up now. You don’t trust me anymore.”
Gao Peng put his hands behind his back and walked away while shaking his head.
Goldie watched Gao Peng’s back in a daze. It seemed like… Gao Peng’s back wasn’t as upright as before.
Goldie gathered its courage and shouted, “Gao Peng, my… my share, I’ll leave it with you.”
Gao Peng paused his steps, turning around and flashing a gleeful smile.
Goldie was extremely confused.
Why did it feel like Gao Peng had cheated it again?
…
“You win.” The Storm Saint Lion’s mane was covered in icicles. Its giant lion eyes turned around to glare at Desolion.
“But I didn’t lose to you, so I don’t accept,” the Storm Saint Lion said through gritted teeth.
“You’re definitely not a match for me if you’re on your own. It’s only because your monster trainer is stronger than mine.” The Storm Saint Lion glanced at the Dragon Ant resentfully. It didn’t know what peculiar ability it had, but after merging, this Frost Holy Lion’s powers increased greatly, and if not for this cunning thief’s sneak attack, how would it…
“Losers will be losers. Cut the crap,” Desolion said contently. “It’s still my talent that my monster trainer is stronger than yours! That means I have good judgement. Why don’t you go find a monster trainer stronger than Gao Peng?”
The Storm Saint Lion closed its eyes and fell silent.
“Why did you and that Ocean Holy Lion want to engulf me?” Desolion asked as it stared at the Storm Saint Lion.
The Storm Saint Lion opened its eyes, looking confused. It was surprised that this Frost Holy Lion didn’t know.
“Hahahaha!” The Storm Saint Lion roared with laughter, nearly breaking into tears. “I lost to a fool.”
Desolion didn’t understand. “…”
Who was it insulting?
“You must have evolved into a Holy Lion after birth,” said the Storm Saint Lion in a low voice. “I can tell you, but you have to accept one condition—”
“Spare my tribe,” said the ruler of Stormy Country.
“Okay.” Desolion nodded.
The Storm Saint Lion didn’t speak, only turned to look at Gao Peng. It wanted Gao Peng’s answer.
Clearly, Gao Peng was the one in charge in its eyes.
“I can promise you,” Gao Peng said. “But the prerequisite is that you don’t lie to me. If I find out you lied, slaughtering an entire city isn’t something I’m incapable of.”
The Storm Saint Lion nodded.
As if it already knew how this would end, the Storm Saint Lion wasn’t in a good mood when it spoke.
“There’s a proverb in the Holy Lion Clan: when the Seven Holy Lions unite, they can step through eternity and see the supreme,” the Storm Saint Lion mumbled. “Unfortunately, I’ve never seen any Holy Lions besides myself in all these years. I even thought this proverb was just a joke.”
“How do you unite?” Gao Peng asked.
The Storm Saint Lion raised its head, a hint of scorn in its grin. “What do you think? Is there any simpler way than eating another whole?”
Gao Peng nodded. “I’ll keep my promise.”
Then he turned and left.
