Luo Xiao's eyes were focused on the egg in his hands. He could feel that the energy was slowly ebbing out; the sphere in front of them was also slowly losing its shine and power, as it had transferred all its energy into the beast within the egg.
The cracking sounds were shocking in the silent surroundings, and fine cracks appeared all over the egg, as the small beast from within was attempting to break out.
Luo Xiao held his breath. He felt his heart beat rapidly, and he was worried about the beast within. It had been so close to death when he had found it, and while he understood that the life force within this dragon heart had nurtured and strengthened it, was it not hatching too soon?
While Luo Xiao was worried, he was also feeling expectant. What kind of beast was this little creature that he felt such a strong connection to?
He waited with bated breath, and soon a small golden-scaled claw appeared through one of the cracks, followed by another claw.
