The Changes in the Egg (Bonus Chapter at 700)

As soon as Pang Jinghai spoke, Jiang Xuan was somewhat surprised.

It seemed that not only Xuanyuan Feng and he were 'actors' just now, but Pang Jinghai was also an 'actor'!

Judging by Pang Jinghai's previous performance, he even thought Pang Jinghai completely believed Xuanyuan Feng's words!

"How did you figure it out?"

Jiang Xuan asked with a smile. He didn't deny Pang Jinghai's words but directly asked how he figured it out, which was equivalent to expressing his own attitude and also agreeing that Xuanyuan Feng had a problem.

Pang Jinghai said without hesitation:

"To be honest, although I don't know what exactly happened when you were Cultivating outside Lei City, judging solely from Xuanyuan Feng's words just now, there are actually no obvious flaws. However, he overlooked a very important matter, and it was this matter that made me feel he had a problem."

Jiang Xuan tried to deduce from Pang Jinghai's perspective and instantly understood, saying:

"You mean..."

Pang Jinghai nodded vigorously:

"Exactly! As the apparent heir of the Xuanyuan Family, how could he be so warm-hearted and so eager to help, traveling thousands of miles to a remote corner like Lei City just to hunt down Monster Worshippers?"

Jiang Xuan nodded slightly:

"That's true."

Pang Jinghai then asked curiously:

"Brother, how did you discover Xuanyuan Feng had a problem?"

Jiang Xuan thought for a moment and decided not to involve Pang Jinghai in his own affairs, even though Pang Jinghai was also from a Planet-level Family. So he smiled and said:

"My guess is the same as yours."

Pang Jinghai said solemnly:

"Hmm, all in all, we both need to be careful of this guy, whether he's coming for us or not."

Jiang Xuan smiled:

"I think so too. By the way, are you also from a Planet-level Family? Then you're a bit low-key."

He quickly changed the subject, just to prevent Pang Jinghai from overthinking.

Pang Jinghai, however, let out a long sigh, and for the first time, a look of desolation appeared on his not-so-handsome face:

"Strictly speaking, I'm not, but I can barely be considered one."

Jiang Xuan asked curiously:

"How so?"

Pang Jinghai looked up at the sky, and a reminiscent look appeared in his squinted eyes:

"That was before I was born... Simply put, my mother, being a member of the Pompey Family, insisted on marrying my father, who came from an ordinary background. This angered my maternal grandfather so much that he kicked her out of the Family. However, my maternal grandfather didn't follow the Family rules to abolish my mother's Cultivation and erase her memories of all the martial arts and Ultimate Skills within the Family. It was because of this that my mother had the opportunity to become a Martial Saint and pass these on to me, alas..."

He sighed. Although he had summoned the courage to speak, he still seemed to have many unspoken difficulties.

"What about your father?" Jiang Xuan asked.

Pang Jinghai shook his head:

"My father later sacrificed himself while protecting Human Race compatriots during a great tide of infiltration by ten thousand races. However, in my heart, he will always be a hero!"

When he said the last sentence, his face was full of pride.

Jiang Xuan pondered, nodded, and then suddenly reached out and patted Pang Jinghai's shoulder:

"Don't worry, your maternal grandfather might even beg you to return to the Pompey Family in the future."

His meaning was rather subtle. He was saying that when he rose in power later, for example, becoming a Martial God, then as a brother who had gone through life and death with a Martial God, wouldn't the Pompey Family, even as a Planet-level Family, eagerly try to curry favor?

Even if he couldn't become a Martial God, becoming a Heavenly Craftsman would probably not be difficult. A Heavenly Craftsman's brother would also be someone the Pompey Family would need to curry favor with, or rather, use Pang Jinghai to befriend him.

However, Pang Jinghai obviously misunderstood, or rather, didn't grasp such a deep meaning. He suddenly clenched his fist, as if encouraged by Jiang Xuan:

"Yes! You're right! I will definitely become strong in the future and make my maternal grandfather beg me to come back! And then place my father's ashes in the Pompey Family's cemetery!"

Jiang Xuan laughed:

"Wait, I remember, isn't the Pompey Family a Western Family, just like the Griffin Family?"

In this world, humans were not distinguished by too many races, only simply divided into East and West.

Pang Jinghai said:

"Yes, what about it?"

Jiang Xuan said:

"Then you're a mixed-blood?"

Pang Jinghai suddenly raised his head and said with great pride:

"Now you finally know why I'm so handsome, haha, mixed-bloods are all great beauties and handsome guys!"

Jiang Xuan: ...What he wanted to express was actually the exact opposite... Next, Jiang Xuan and Pang Jinghai joined the large group and entered a restaurant. Everyone excitedly discussed today's great battle, especially since Xuanyuan Feng had handled the aftermath of the killing, so their discussions were even more uninhibited and enjoyable.

"Brother Xuan, you're too abnormal! Did you drink all the blood-burning gene potion your Two Masters gave you? Your qi and blood value is actually over 500,000 points! We thought you would at most Cultivate to over 300,000 points of qi and blood value at noon."

"That's right, but honestly, Brother Xuan, that punch of yours was really cool! You instantly killed that dog Ji Zhuo, hahaha, is this the power of the heavenly potential fruit? The increase in strength is too great!"

"A Five-Star Martial Master killed a One-Star Martial King instantly! Honestly, Brother Xuan, your combat record is already comparable to the younger generation of some Planet-level Families!"

During dinner, everyone genuinely praised Jiang Xuan because they truly felt he was very strong.

As for Feng Lin and Lü Yunxiao, they deeply felt the gap between themselves and Jiang Xuan. While envious, they also strengthened their resolve to diligently Cultivate.

After eating and drinking to their fill, today's gathering ended. Jiang Xuan, alone, pretended to be going home.

As he passed Lei Cheng No. 1 Middle School, he flashed, turning into a small alley in a blind spot of surveillance. He quickly took out the thousand faces and put it on.

When he walked out of the alley, he had already transformed into a somewhat gloomy-looking third-year high school student.

"It's time to bury that strange egg..." Jiang Xuan muttered to himself and walked into the school gate. It was exactly three in the afternoon, and third-year high school students were coming in and out, the security guard didn't stop them at all.

By the third year of high school, especially when facing the Martial Dao College Entrance Examination, third-year students were very free and could enter and exit the school at will.

But except for Jiang Xuan and the Transfer Students who didn't have to attend classes, other students still had to come to class every day.

Walking all the way to the school's back mountain, Jiang Xuan skillfully detoured to a rarely visited area. It was the side of the school's back mountain, with a dense forest and half-human-high bushes.

The space ring on his index finger flashed, and Jiang Xuan took out the vibrant egg. After thinking for a moment, he kicked the ground with one foot.

Invisible force surged out, and the soil on the ground was immediately kicked into a vertical pit half a meter deep, so regular that it seemed to have been made by a pile driver, a proper one.

Jiang Xuan didn't hesitate and placed the egg inside.

But at that very moment, an unexpected change occurred!
