Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 979 - 975: The Egg God’s Trial

If Rong Gu had nurtured the creature inside the jar, then many things that followed could have had completely different outcomes.

"Although it’s not yet clear what the difference is between them, the life inside this jar should have been nurtured using the Raising Gu method."

Speaking of Raising Gu, Dragon Spirit immediately recalled the things they saw at Gu God Hall before. To be honest, it was quite disgusting.

Without holding back, he said, "These people are all sick in the head, using such disgusting and despicable methods!"

Suddenly, Dragon Spirit’s gaze turned to Xuan Chu.

Xuan Chu felt a bit apprehensive under Dragon Spirit’s gaze, always feeling that Dragon Spirit had no good intentions.

"Where’s Er Dan, do you have it with you?"

Xuan Chu instinctively became wary, "What do you want to do!"

This scene almost made Dragon Spirit laugh out of anger, "You need to understand, I was the one who found Er Dan back then. Although Yun Ran gave Er Dan to your Heavenly Dao Village,

but this body of mine, at least, is still the Hall Master of the Gu God Hall! Er Dan’s true identity is the Gu God nurtured by the Gu God Hall.

Now I need Er Dan, so it’s quite reasonable for you to bring it out for me, isn’t it?

Do you really think that just because Er Dan was given to your Heavenly Dao Village, it truly belongs to Heavenly Dao Village?"

Xuan Chu: ...

He’s met unreasonable people before, but Dragon Spirit’s level of unreasonableness was new to him.

However, Xuan Chu had spent some time with Dragon Spirit and knew he wasn’t someone to make baseless claims; he must have thought of something.

After just a second of thought, he decided to take out Er Dan.

"Here you go!"

Dragon Spirit looked at Er Dan, which used to be round and glossy but was now smaller and a bit dull-looking.

Immediately, his gaze, as sharp as a knife, fell on Xuan Chu.

"Look at you, can’t even take care of an egg properly. It’s lost its gloss!"

Dragon Spirit usually didn’t care much about Er Dan, but if it was visibly worse than before, he would also be displeased.

Xuan Chu opened his mouth, but feeling guilty, he ended up saying nothing, silently enduring Dragon Spirit’s disdain.

The Little Paperman, however, didn’t mind Xuan Chu’s embarrassment at all.

It flew to Dragon Spirit’s side, looking at him curiously, "Dragon King, do you want Er Dan to deal with the creature inside this jar?"

Earlier, pretending to be indignant over Er Dan’s loss of gloss, Dragon Spirit now confidently nodded.

"After all, it’s the Gu God and has absorbed the Heavenly Dao Origin, incredibly tough. The creature inside this jar was also nurtured using the Raising Gu method.

All worlds’ Gus naturally give way to the Gu God. What if it works~"

Xuan Chu: ...

Now he realized that Dragon Spirit was truly hypocritical.

Er Dan had lost weight, its eggshell lacked gloss, and when Dragon Spirit scolded him, he was full of energy.

People who didn’t know might think Dragon Spirit really cared about Er Dan.

But now, even when none of them could handle the creature inside that jar, Dragon Spirit seemed quite confident.

Didn’t he consider what to do if Er Dan couldn’t handle the creature in the jar?

But now, it never occurred to Dragon Spirit to think about that; he weighed Er Dan in his hand.

Then he smiled and tossed Er Dan toward the jar.

He even said, "Off you go!!!"

Er Dan: ...

In its last life, it must have had a feud with Dragon Spirit, which is why in this life, it kept getting tricked by him!

Its Companion Beast was killed by Dragon Spirit, and if it weren’t sturdy enough, Dragon Spirit might have turned it into a fried egg for Yun Ran to eat.

Now, it was even more overbearing, expecting a baby egg to deal with a creature nurtured for thousands of years. Is there no justice?

Unfortunately, no one could hear Er Dan’s inner voice among those present.

There was a "crack!" sound!

Before, no matter how they tried, the jar left no mark, but when Er Dan struck it, a few cracks appeared on the pattern.

A wisp of dangerous and violent black mist seeped out from those cracks.

This aura frightened Mo Zhi so much that she immediately hugged her head and burrowed into the Jade, not looking back.

As long as she was inside the Jade, she was safe; no one could reach her there.

Little Paperman: ...

Dragon Spirit: ...

Xuan Chu: ...

They knew Mo Zhi was timid when faced with danger but never thought she’d run away so fast.

On the battlefield, she’d be a deserter for sure!

But now was not the time to criticize Mo Zhi; the oppressive aura made even those accustomed to danger feel uneasy.

The scales on Dragon Spirit’s body, usually faintly visible, all appeared, making it look like he was wearing armor.

Little Paperman was surrounded by rings of Heavenly Thunder Flowers.

Xuan Chu was fully alert and ready to face a tough battle.

Yet, their preparations seemed unnecessary.

That aura, full of danger and enmity, appeared only briefly, making its presence felt before it suddenly disappeared.

Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu exchanged a glance, seeing the confusion in each other’s eyes.

Just then, Little Paperman spoke, "Look quickly!"

Hearing Little Paperman’s voice, Dragon Spirit and Xuan Chu saw a scene that left them dumbfounded.

Er Dan, like a sponge, was ravenously absorbing the black mist escaping from the jar’s crack.

Whether it was an illusion, the angry, painful, and ominous roars they heard from the jar before,

now, those mixed voices from countless lives seemed to carry a trace of... fear?

Xuan Chu’s feelings were mixed, "Would this be considered a lucky accident?"

Dragon Spirit’s expression shifted from initial shock to confusion, then to pride, "How could this be just an accident? Clearly, it’s my foresight as the Dragon King!"

Watching Er Dan devour the mist like a starving man at a feast,

Dragon Spirit felt reinvigorated.

"This is the advantage of being a lifeform that’s lived for thousands of years. You should all learn from me more in the future!"

Xuan Chu: ...

This scene was captured in its entirety by the Water Curtain, allowing Yun Ran to see it too.

Yun Ran was somewhat speechless but felt more anxious inside.

They encountered many troubles along the way, and their group seemed lucky, always able to turn peril into safety.

Previously, Yun Ran didn’t think much of it, but now she had an uneasy sense that everything was prearranged.
