It immediately stood up, cautiously scanning its surroundings. When it saw Su Chen, its expression noticeably softened. Its enormous wings suddenly unfolded in the sunlight, emitting a dazzling silver glow, followed by a violent shake!
Su Chen quickly covered Huo Yunfei’s eyes, laughed, and said, "It’s time for it to have a snack."
Huo Yunfei’s eyes were covered, her heart fluttering.
"Fei’Er, wait for me here, I’ll be right back."
Su Chen released his hand, and Huo Yunfei watched him turn and run towards the cold pond, "Su Chen, what are you doing?"
Su Chen turned back while running, "Didn’t I say? It’s time for a snack!"
As he spoke, he had already reached the edge of the cold pond and, under Huo Yunfei’s astonished gaze, he jumped high and dove into the icy cold waters!
Huo Yunfei’s gaze trembled, her mouth slightly agape in unspeakable astonishment.
Bear in mind, it’s the season of ice shedding, and the water in the cold pond is at its coldest. Su Chen just jumped in , showing how robust his body is. But just looking at his appearance, you really can’t tell how formidable he is.
Her beautiful eyes glowed with a strange hue, Huo Yunfei clenched her little fists, nervously staring at the movements on the surface of the cold pond.
Under the cold pond, Su Chen’s whole body was surrounded by a layer of pale azure flame. The Beast’s Qi Energy circulated, bringing a sense of warmth, while the mighty wind force securely shielded his body from the cold invasion. His eyes were open as he swam underwater in the dimness, slowly condensing a three-foot-long azure blade in his hand...
Soon, a splash erupted from the cold pond surface, and a figure emitting azure flames leapt out, landing steadily on the ground.
Huo Yunfei ran over in a few steps.
Su Chen was holding two codfish that were two feet long in his arms, but the codfish were no longer lively, gradually losing their vitality. Su Chen wasn’t very wet, holding the codfish, he smiled at Huo Yunfei and said, "Couldn’t catch the mandarin fish, had to make do with codfish."
After speaking, he cheerfully ran towards the Cangyun He whose eyes gleamed, with Huo Yunfei happily following behind.
He threw the two big fish to the Cangyun He, which caught them in one bite. Su Chen clapped his hands and muttered to himself, "I wonder if it has matured a bit?"
"What do you mean matured?"
Huo Yunfei looked at the mumbling Su Chen, an odd expression on her face.
"Didn’t you see that egg?"
Huo Yunfei dumbly turned her head, only to discover a crystal white egg hidden under Cangyun He, "When did an egg appear? How come I didn’t notice it earlier..."
"Haha, maybe you just didn’t look closely."
Su Chen said as he walked straight to beneath Cangyun He, squatted down, and gently tapped on the eggshell. The excited Cangyun He, gobbling up the codfish, lowered its head and seemed to flash a hint of light in its eyes.
"Seems like there’s a bit of movement?"
Su Chen tapped a few times, his brows furrowing slightly, noticing a faint sound coming from inside the egg. He quickly condensed a trace of wind power, slowly infiltrating the eggshell to probe the source of the sound.
Huo Yunfei stood beside Su Chen, looking curious, clutching her little hand, not daring to breathe.
Indeed, after a moment of searching, that wind power slowly encountered an obstacle, with some dispersing towards the sides inside the egg. Su Chen controlled them to flow gently along the surface of the anomaly, carefully feeling the shape of the anomaly.
But just as a look of joy appeared on his face, the eggshell suddenly cracked with a ’rip’!
Su Chen stepped back half a step. Cangyun He glanced down, casually swallowing the last piece of codfish meat.
Su Chen stood half a meter away, looking a bit astonished at this Spirit Beast Egg, murmuring, "Is it really about to come out now?"
Sure enough, as the crack spread, the eggshell suddenly shattered, splitting into halves!
A mixture of crystal white and yellow liquid poured out, revealing a small, peculiar beast, dripping wet, in front of Su Chen and Huo Yunfei!
Huo Yunfei’s mouth was slightly open.
Su Chen also stared at the little beast, dumbfounded, his eyes wide.
The little beast had a tiger-like head, two shiny black eyes full of spirit, its whole body covered with gray fur, its limbs crouched, looking completely unlike the giant beast seen in the valley. Curiously, it had a pair of cute fleshy wings that couldn’t fly but kept fluttering. Its mouth constantly emitted a low huffing sound.
"I brought it back from the valley below Yue Peak."
Su Chen said, his eyes filled with kindness as he looked at the little beast.
Huo Yunfei also laughed, "It’s so cute, is it a Spirit Beast, Su Chen?"
Su Chen nodded, "Yes, and it might even be a thunder-attributed Dragon Race spirit beast, though I’m not sure which kind it belongs to within the Dragon Race."
Su Chen had heard this from Wen Ruyu.
Huo Yunfei was even more amazed, walking a few steps towards the little beast, reaching out to pet its fluffy head, "Dragon Race? But it doesn’t look like a dragon at all, more like a winged koala."
Su Chen chuckled, "I think so too, but its mother resembles a dragon more, covered in gray scales and capable of thunder attribute attacks, though she has no wings."
"What’s going on here?"
Huo Yunfei asked, puzzled.
Su Chen also silently shook his head, quietly wondering to himself if the little creature was a mutated species?
As they spoke, the little beast clumsily crawled towards Cangyun He, who was watching it, while Cangyun He lifted its head and flapped its wings several times, backing up a few meters.
After bringing this egg back, Su Chen had asked Yue Xianling to help take it to Cangyun He for incubation, thinking it would hatch soon, but unexpectedly, it had taken a full three years.
