Chapter 63: The Sky-Sovereign White Dragon Breaks Out of Its Shell!

Yes, that was an egg.

The reason Su Xiaobai immediately noticed it was because it was flawless and pure white, like jade, exuding a dreamy luster… Just one glance was enough to spot it among the vast array of ferocious beast materials.

“Could it be that after Shadow killed the monsters, it even brought a beast egg as a trophy?”

Su Xiaobai was puzzled.

He picked up the jade-white egg and the spatial ring that came with it.

The egg was enormous. Placed on the ground, it reached as high as Su Xiaobai’s knees.

Su Xiaobai carefully examined the egg, pacing around it.

He couldn’t tell what kind of ferocious beast this egg belonged to, but its dreamy appearance alone indicated that it was no ordinary egg.

“Forget it. Never mind for now; refining pills is what truly matters!”

Su Xiaobai shifted his focus away. “System, start refining the Qianyuan Soul Returning Pill!”

Quickly, the system selected one-fourth of the materials and placed them into the pill furnace. It also extracted the pill formula from Su Xiaobai’s mind.

As a colorful progress bar appeared, the refining process for the seventh-grade Qianyuan Soul Returning Pill began.

Bored, Su Xiaobai’s gaze returned to the mysterious jade-white egg.

“Touching it… it’s warm!”

“It should be able to hatch into a beast, right?”

Su Xiaobai reached out to touch it and felt a faint warmth.

Suddenly, his brows furrowed. A sharp pain shot through his finger.

“What’s going on? It actually made me bleed?”

Startled, Su Xiaobai withdrew his hand and saw a small cut on his finger. A single drop of blood had already fallen onto the jade-white egg.

“But the surface is smooth—no spikes or anything. How could it cut my finger?”

Su Xiaobai was confused.

Even if there were spikes, they shouldn’t have been able to injure him. After all, his endurance had reached the level of an advanced martial master, capable of withstanding ordinary weapon attacks.

Yet, he had gotten hurt just by touching an egg—how bizarre!

“Wait… is the egg absorbing my blood?”

Su Xiaobai’s gaze sharpened.

He saw the drop of blood on the egg being drawn in by an invisible force, slowly seeping into the eggshell.

Suddenly, Su Xiaobai felt dazed, as if a strange signal had entered his mind.

It seemed like he had established an inexplicable connection with something.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound broke the silence.

“The egg is cracking!”

The jade-white egg began to develop cracks, which spread quickly, soon covering the entire shell.

Su Xiaobai focused all his attention on the egg.

He was extremely curious to see what kind of beast would hatch from it. If it turned out to be some ugly, ferocious monster, he’d finish it off with a single slash.

But if it were innocent, adorable, and harmless, he wouldn’t mind sparing it and raising it.

Raising beasts wasn’t uncommon.

It was said that prominent families even raised B-grade beasts as mounts or guard animals.

“Brother!”

At that moment, the door opened, and Su Ling’er poked her head in. “It’s time to eat!”

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes fell on the jade-white egg in front of Su Xiaobai.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement like never before.

“Wow! What a beautiful egg!”

Su Ling’er immediately ran over, looking at the jade-white egg as if she had discovered a treasure. Her gaze was filled with joy.

It had to be said—women truly had a natural affinity for things that were shiny and cute.

The jade-white egg fit both descriptions perfectly.

“Brother, where did you get this?”

“It’s so beautiful!”

Su Ling’er couldn’t help but ask.

“I bought it!”

“So, do you like it?”

Since Su Ling’er liked it, Su Xiaobai didn’t mind taking credit for the egg.

“Mm-hmm! I love it!”

Su Ling’er nodded enthusiastically, her eyes brimming with joy. “Brother, is this egg about to hatch?”

She pointed to the cracks spreading across the jade-white egg.

The cracks had grown more pronounced, covering the entire surface of the egg. The lower side, in particular, was densely webbed with fissures.

Pop!

Just as Su Ling’er finished speaking, the area with the densest cracks burst open, and a tiny, jade-white claw poked out!

“Brother! It’s alive! It’s alive!”

Su Ling’er was ecstatic.

As an ordinary person living in the safety of the base, Su Ling’er had never had the chance to venture outside. Although she often heard about ferocious beasts, she had never seen one herself.

Witnessing a new life emerge right before her eyes was a rare and exciting experience.

Su Xiaobai was also intrigued.

When he glimpsed the little claw, it struck him as oddly familiar, as though he had seen something like it before.

“That looks like… a dragon claw?”

Before Su Xiaobai could confirm, another part of the eggshell broke away, pushed by the same adorable little claw.

Piece by piece, the eggshell crumbled.

The light in Su Ling’er’s eyes grew even brighter, her overflowing excitement almost tangible.

Moments later, half of the eggshell had fallen away, fully revealing what was inside.

“Wow!!!”

Su Ling’er let out an astonished cry. “It’s such a cute little dragon!”

Indeed, the egg contained a small dragon, snow-white and as pure as jade, with tiny, underdeveloped wings on its back. Its innocent, large eyes radiated a sense of purity, while its delicate features completed its irresistibly adorable appearance.

The little white dragon stared blankly at Su Xiaobai and Su Ling’er, tilting its head in confusion. Its big, blinking eyes epitomized the term

adorable

.

“It’s really a dragon!”

Even Su Xiaobai was surprised.

I didn’t expect Shadow to bring back such a remarkable prize!

Raising a dragon? That sounded like a fantastic idea!

If the dragon grows strong enough, it could even protect Su Ling’er.

“Wait, does the dragon have a status panel?”

The thought suddenly crossed Su Xiaobai’s mind.

He quickly examined the information about the little white dragon.

Dragon Species: Sky-Sovereign White Dragon

Strength Level: None

Endurance Level: None

Agility Level: None

Cultivation Potential: Top-tier

Bloodline Abilities: Dragon Breath, Dragon Fire, White Dragon’s Aura

“Sky-Sovereign White Dragon?”

“That name is so majestic!”

“And its cultivation potential is top-tier!”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes lit up.

This beast’s talents are extraordinary—its potential for cultivation was top-notch, and it possesses incredible bloodline abilities like Dragon’s Aura. If it matured, its strength would undoubtedly be terrifying!

At that moment, the Sky-Sovereign White Dragon lifted its head and looked at Su Xiaobai and Su Ling’er with its large, shimmering eyes.

Then, it wobbled toward Su Xiaobai, its steps unsteady, and nuzzled its face against his hand, showing a remarkable level of affection.

In Su Xiaobai’s mind, he felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to the little dragon.

“All right! Since I watched you hatch, you’re now a member of the Su family!”

“You are the Sky-Sovereign White Dragon, so I’ll call you Xiao Bai Long!”

Su Xiaobai grinned widely.
