Chapter 728: Chapter 729 About to Hatch_1

"Even if you have the strength, there are still many things you can’t do, and even..."

Feng Yuan said, shaking his head with a touch of sadness,

"You can only make a choice you don’t wish to make from options you are reluctant to choose."

"What?"

Qi Xiaoshuang was stunned for a moment, and Feng Yuan did not explain but said,

"Sometimes, strength does not mean everything, and you may even hate why you possess that power."

"Because you can only choose an ending you are unwilling to accept, which is worse than those who can’t do anything. They at least have an imaginary hope..."

"You..."

Qi Xiaoshuang lowered his head, lost in thought. At their age, what they most admired were the heroes of various Alliances, all of whom were strong. Many people also embarked on a journey in pursuit of power during this time, and to Qi Xiaoshuang, Feng Yuan was like one of those Alliance heroes.

"Does it have something to do with your past experiences?"

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan curiously. Without any explanation, Feng Yuan gently patted Xiao Ji’s back and said,

"I’ll go check if they have made a decision."

The White Shadow Wolf scratched Qi Xiaoshuang’s arm with its small paw, looking at him with a puzzled expression and let out a whimpering sound. Seeing that the White Shadow Wolf wanted to make him laugh, Qi Xiaoshuang smiled and rubbed the wolf’s head,

"Thank you~"

"Decided? Then let’s wait. I guess it will hatch this afternoon."

Feng Yuan said to the staff member, who nodded in surprise,

"This afternoon?"

"Yes, predicting the hatching time of something like a Spirit Beast Egg is well within my capabilities."

This wasn’t really a big issue. Spirit Beast Masters and other such entities could easily discern the hatching time of Spirit Beast Eggs, and even Guo Huai could do the same—his system could probably pinpoint it to the second.

"I’m going to grab some lunch first; there’s nothing for me here now, anyway."

Yawning, Feng Yuan said he was going to have lunch, considering that the training equipment he requested had already been installed at the school’s battle arena. Teacher Yan and the others had even set up a fence around it to mark it as their territory and to prevent others from tampering with it. He would have disappeared long ago if it weren’t for Qi Xiaoshuang’s need to come here, combined with the staff mentioning a surprise.

As for being a Breeder? He had absolutely no interest in that. Staying put in one place wasn’t his style. Xiao Ji stuck closely to Feng Yuan’s side, especially vigilant when they left the Breeding House.

It hadn’t forgotten what happened before; as a subsidiary of the Alliance, the Divine Beast Hall would certainly not dare to make a move here, or they could face alliance retaliation the very next day. But once they’re outside the Breeding House, it was a different story.

"Speaking of which, has that explosion site recovered yet?"

Feng Yuan asked Agunas curiously. After all, the Divine Beasts must have been busy dealing with it, leading to plenty of communication. Waving its tail slightly, Agunas said with some guilt,

"Not yet, the powers there are too chaotic. Neither Emperor Savidi nor Gitalien nor Lorraine Tower can organize those forces."

"Really? Why not just erase them all together?"

Feng Yuan asked in surprise. It wasn’t strange that Emperor Savidi couldn’t handle it, since he controlled the power of the Dream Domain, which was almost entirely skewed towards that Domain. However, Gitalien and Lorraine Tower were different; they might have trouble organizing, but exiling those forces wouldn’t be hard.

"It seems some special power got mixed in there. Even temporal eradication can’t interfere with the powers in that area. You didn’t do anything special at the time, did you?"

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan suspiciously. If there was a power that even Lorraine Tower couldn’t erase, Feng Yuan was the most likely suspect. At least the remnants of Agunas’ powers could be completely wiped away by Lorraine Tower’s full effort.

"No, I just drew the purple world a little closer at that time."

Feng Yuan said, puzzled. He didn’t elaborate simply because he worried Agunas might be fishing for information. Understanding Feng Yuan’s caution, Agunas said, annoyed,

"I’m not so bored as to trick you. But if that’s the case... the power that appeared there is very suspicious."

"It shouldn’t be anything too special."

Feng Yuan thought about it and said as he remembered. In his memory, there was no sign of an outside force, and surely if such a force were involved, He would have noticed it. All they had done at the time was to destroy the barrier between the Dream Domain and the real world, which only resulted in the two overlapping, and would not have affected His power.

"Still, it’s very strange that it could affect temporal intervention."

What puzzled Agunas the most was this, and after some thought, Feng Yuan said,

"Shall we go check it out?"

Giving Feng Yuan a sidelong glance, Agunas said irritably,

"You’re just going to leave this all behind? I’d like to see what you do in case something unexpected happens."

"It shouldn’t..."

Feng Yuan said somewhat guiltily. Although previous inspections hadn’t found any problems, he couldn’t guarantee there was absolutely nothing wrong. Agunas, who had landed on Big Cat’s head, said,

"That strange power appeared very suddenly, but it’s also gradually disappearing. They are waiting for the power to dissipate before dealing with the barrier’s rupture."

"Is that so..."

After thinking it over, Feng Yuan gave up on the idea of going over to check things out. He had no choice; after all, he and Agunas had blown up the place together. If he showed up there again and Emperor Savidi noticed something amiss, it could be bad.

As for Lorraine Tower and Gitalien? Feng Yuan didn’t think Lorraine Tower was unaware. Remember, he had acted directly in Clock Town, which is also why Emperor Savidi hadn’t immediately suspected Feng Yuan—because Lorraine Tower hadn’t said anything.

Walking back to the breeding house with the snacks he had just bought, Feng Yuan looked at the bag hanging around Big Cat’s neck, and Qi Xiaoshuang said without words,

"You really know how to take advantage."

"Hehe~ Anyway, this little weight is nothing for Big Cat~"

"By the way, do you want some?"

As if remembering something, Feng Yuan took out a small snack from the bag and offered it to Qi Xiaoshuang, who shook her head and said,

"No thanks. I don’t want to spend time dieting."

"Do you need to diet?"

Feng Yuan looked at Qi Xiaoshuang suspiciously. The latter’s figure was fine, and while she hadn’t fully grown due to her age, she wasn’t chubby.

"Not for now, the weight is just right."

Looking at her clothes, Qi Xiaoshuang stated calmly, and then, recalling something, she said,

"Speaking of which, aren’t you worried about gaining weight from all the snacks you eat every day?"

"What’s there to worry about?"

Feng Yuan said carelessly, and Agunas glanced at him and remarked,

"Using the power of Spirit Beasts to stay slim, right?"

"Can’t exactly put it that way, although Beastmasters basically have standard weight, there are still some who are overweight, aren’t there?"

Feng Yuan said while eating his snacks when a staff member ran over and said,

"You’re here? It looks like it’s about to hatch."

"It does seem to be about time."

Feng Yuan glanced at the clock on the wall and looked at Qi Xiaoshuang before saying,

"Do you want to come too?"

"Of course, I’m curious to see the result,"

Qi Xiaoshuang said while picking up the downsized White Shadow Wolf, which was now about the size of Little Husky that Feng Yuan had transformed into. Noticing that Feng Yuan seemed tempted, Agunas said irritably,

"Don’t transform in this kind of place; it causes trouble for others."

"Tsk!"

Feng Yuan pursed his lips in dissatisfaction and lightly tapped Xiao Ji’s head, following the staff member to the hatching room. By now, the area outside the hatching room was packed with people. Everyone was well aware of Fatty Coo’s special situation, so they were all concerned about its fate.

Feng Yuan wasn’t too interested. It was just something he happened upon. With his arms crossed in front of his chest, he leaned against the wall watching the anxious crowd, and Qi Xiaoshuang, looking puzzled, said,

"Aren’t you going to take a look?"

"There’s nothing to see. The result is already known, although..."

Feng Yuan paused as if remembering something, then shook his head and said,

"They’ll probably have a welcome ceremony when they return, right? Though they might find another reason for it."

Caught off guard by Feng Yuan’s change of subject, Qi Xiaoshuang was taken aback before responding uncertainly,

"Shouldn’t be... after all..."

"But it’s none of their business, is it? And regarding that previous decision... even if it’s to make up for their faults, they’d probably do the same, just like it will."

Feng Yuan said, looking meaningfully towards the hatching room.
