Chapter 39 The dragon egg hopped and skipped out of the villa!
The middle-aged man instinctively didn't believe it.
As the director of the Imperial Guard of Linjiang Province, Zhong Houwang's first reaction was that it was nonsense.
It's the 21st century, and natural disasters still happen in an instant?
"But Professor An has dedicated many years to paleontology and is among the top researchers internationally..."
"Professor An was able to use his authority to tell me this directly..."
With his hands behind his back, Zhong Houwang paced back and forth, lost in thought.
His expression shifted back and forth for a long while.
"No, we have to call and ask!"
Zhong Houwang gritted his teeth and took out his phone from his pocket.
After finding Anming's number and dialing it.
Anming had barely answered the call when it was connected.
"It's me, Professor An. I can approve your suggestion, but you must tell me why. I want to hear the truth."
Zhong Houwang spoke in a deep, resonant voice.
"Forehead……"
Hearing this, An Ming fell silent for a moment.
A few minutes later.
"Mr. Yu Xiao told me that the real dragon inside the egg is about to hatch."
Anming's words came through the phone.
"?"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Houwang was taken aback.
...
Zhong Houwang had some doubts.
Are true dragons that powerful? Just hatching from their shells can cause such a commotion? Imagine how incredible they must be when they're fully grown!
But since Anming said so.
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Houwang not only approved it immediately, but also reported it directly to his superiors.
Just as a group of bigwigs were investigating whether what Yu Xiao said was true or not.
Donghai City, Shallow Bay.
"Bang!"
Yu Xiao got out of the car and casually closed the door.
He glanced at the vast but dilapidated abandoned factory in front of him, then looked up.
"It's only noon, isn't it? There are already dark clouds in the sky?"
Looking at the several dark clouds looming overhead, Yu Xiao narrowed his eyes.
There are still 5 hours until they hatch... and we're already starting...
"So this is the true value of the Abyss Ruler...?"
With a sigh, Yu Xiao shook his head and then strode forward.
I just stepped into the abandoned factory.
Sensing the Shadow Dragon's excitement, the Golden Dragon showed some disdain.
While scoffing at the mudfish's recklessness, the golden dragon, before even finishing digesting its food, bit off a fragment from the dragon egg.

"Forehead……"
Upon seeing the pop-up data panel, Yu Xiao remained silent, only choking for a moment.
I thought about it.
"Because Anming put in a good word for us, we didn't need to go to the Urban Construction Bureau; the procedures were completed directly..."
"Now we can just pay someone to do the renovations..."
Yu Xiao took his phone out of his pocket, his eyes flickering.
Okay, let's come here, discuss the renovation plan, and then head straight to the research base. Perfect!
...
After Yu Xiao finished making the call and asked someone to come over, he casually found a coffee shop to sit and wait.
Across from the coffee shop.
"Zhixuan? What's wrong with you?"
"Didn't I tell you before that it's absolutely impossible for a human to self-immolate and emerge unscathed? Why are you still here...?"
Xia Wei looked at Hong Zhixuan, who seemed distracted, and asked curiously.
Hong Zhixuan didn't explain, she just glanced at Xia Wei.
Why are you looking at me like that?
"I told you this is definitely a hallucination because you can't accept that your mother was scammed out of 2000 million."
"It's the 21st century! We should believe in science! How could something so mystical as you're describing possibly happen?"
Meeting Hong Zhixuan's gaze, Xia Wei spoke very seriously.
Hmph! Yu Xiao, you really deserve to die!
It wasn't enough that you cheated my dad out of more than 1000 million yuan, you also cheated my best friend's mother out of 2000 million yuan, right?
The problem is that now my best friend acts like a frightened rabbit whenever she mentions you!
Thinking about this...
"Don't worry, Zhixuan."
"I've already told my cousin, and he also thinks it's ridiculous. How can there be dragons in this world?"
"Zhixuan, all you need to do is go to Yu Xiao's company and take photos to prove that Yu Xiao committed fraud."
"My cousin works at the South China Anti-Fraud Center; he'll definitely be able to bring Yu Xiao to justice!"
Xia Wei patted Hong Zhixuan's hand and spoke earnestly.
"..."
Hong Zhixuan did not answer, but her body trembled slightly after hearing the name "Yu Xiao".
I hesitated for a few seconds.
"Weiwei, about the cooperation between Mingyue Group and Jianning Group..."
Hong Zhixuan forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.
No! We can't continue!
Yesterday I watched a lot of masters descend the mountain, and they all said that such people will appear in front of you after sensing that you are calling them!
"Oh, this? I asked my dad about it last night, and he unusually said he would fully cooperate, and that we wouldn't go through the bidding process anymore, we'd just cooperate directly with Mingyue Group..."
Xia Wei was a little puzzled by Hong Zhixuan's move to change the subject, but she still scratched her head and spoke up.
Seeing Xia Wei say this, and seeing that Xia Wei had finally changed the subject.
Hong Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's great. Once Repulse Bay is developed..."
After thinking for a moment, Hong Zhixuan forced a smile onto her face.
But Hong Zhixuan was only halfway through her sentence.
"?"
Upon seeing Yu Xiao sitting in a coffee shop across the street, Hong Zhixuan's pupils dilated instantly.
Is it fake?
You actually showed up here?
...
"Isn't this Ling Man's daughter?"
"Why do I feel like she's acting even weirder today?"
Yu Xiao looked away, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Why did she look like she was afraid I would eat her when she saw me last time?
This time it's even worse; my legs are shaking.
I thought about it.
"After the renovation company arrives and we finalize the renovation plan, we'll head to the research base."
"By the time we get to the research base, the dragon egg will have less than half an hour left to hatch, right?"
Yu Xiao picked up his phone from the table, glanced at the time, and pondered for a moment.
With this in mind, Yu Xiao prepared to make another call to urge the renovation company.
I just opened the call log interface.
Out of the corner of Yu Xiao's eye, Hong Zhixuan walked cautiously toward the coffee shop, ignoring Xia Wei's attempts to persuade her by pulling on her arm.
"Um?"
Seeing this, Yu Xiao raised his eyebrows.
I was just about to stand up.
Sensing that its incubation period was getting shorter, the Shadow Dragon became even more excited.
The impatient Shadow Dragon, without even digesting a single dragon egg fragment, bit off several large pieces, eager to meet you, its sovereign, as soon as possible.
[Incubation Countdown: 3 hours and 21 minutes]
Sensing the Shadow Dragon's actions, the Golden Dragon became even more disdainful.
[Disgusted by this shameless behavior, the golden dragon thrashed about inside the egg, trying to make more egg fragments fall out.]
[Spurred on by the Shadow Dragon and the Golden Dragon, the Fairy Dragon awakens prematurely.]
The awakened elven dragon not only angrily rebuked the two for their disgraceful behavior, but also threatened the golden dragon to be quiet, or it would enter the golden dragon's dream tonight.
Because of the threat from the Fairy Dragon, the Golden Dragon shrank back, slightly slowing its growth rate.
[Incubation Countdown: 55 hours and 21 minutes]
"?"
Yu Xiao's lips twitched, and he stopped moving.
Good news: The Fairy Dragon really does have a strong personality; I told you the opposite was right!
Bad news: The Faerie Dragon is a bit too powerful...
Even worse news: The Fairy Dragon and the Golden Divine Dragon have clashed...
"But given the Golden Dragon's arrogant personality... wouldn't that mean..."
A bad thought suddenly popped into Yu Xiao's mind.
The thought had barely crossed my mind when...
The golden dragon, regaining its senses, was enraged.
Deciding to strike first, the golden dragon immediately manipulated its dragon egg, hopping and skipping towards the location of the spirit dragon's egg, determined to teach the spirit dragon a lesson it wouldn't forget.
