Chapter 33 What does it mean when a dragon feels neglected?
Yu Xiao was puzzled and greatly shocked.
No, even a true dragon can't be this unreasonable!
Yu Xiao was a little conflicted.
However, there was one thing that Yu Xiao understood.
"They will never harm me, and in the hearts of these dragons, I am the highest will..."
Yu Xiao reached out his right hand and stroked the dragon egg, seemingly lost in thought.
I was originally thinking about how to appease the Shadow Dragon, but now it seems I don't need to do anything.
The palm touched the dragon egg.
"But why do I get this feeling of a naughty child suddenly becoming well-behaved when their parents come home?"
Yu Xiao's gaze was a little strange, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
Mischievousness and arrogance will definitely lead to a fight, but the extent of the damage remains to be seen.
But if it's a fight between someone who's hot-tempered and arrogant... the destructive power would be absolutely astonishing...
[Sensing that you, the supreme ruler, are touching it, the Shadow Dragon becomes extremely excited.]
With a smug look on its face, the Shadow Dragon took another bite from the fragment inside the dragon egg, eager to hatch it as soon as possible.

"It really is..."
Looking at the pop-up data panel, Yu Xiao gave a wry smile to himself.
...
For Yu Xiao, who knew exactly what had happened, it was nothing.
But for bystanders like An Ming...
"What's going on?"
Anming took off his glasses and vigorously wiped the lenses, then stared ahead in horror.
Is this real? One second it was a bright red egg, and the next it was back to normal?
And that high temperature from before has now completely disappeared?
"What happened?"
"It was so hot just now, I was almost collapsing, and now it's suddenly so cool?"
"Could it be that this egg sensed Mr. Yu Xiao's arrival?"
"Such high intelligence? Even inside the egg, it possesses such high intelligence? What will this egg hatch into?"
"Am I the only one who finds this scientifically unacceptable? How could a temperature of over 400 degrees Celsius suddenly drop? Even if the heat dissipates, isn't there still residual heat?"
The researchers looked at each other, completely bewildered.
They had a sense of déjà vu, as if the science they had pursued for decades had been utterly shattered at this moment.
Let's put everything else aside for now.
Heat is essentially the result of molecules in violent motion. So even if the heat dissipates, due to inertia, some molecules will still be in violent motion, which is the residual heat.
It's like someone running at 20 m/s and then coming to a complete stop in a second.
Theoretically, they think it's nonsense, but that's the reality.
However, after Anming came to his senses...
"Such precise energy control? If we can figure out exactly how it's done, doesn't that mean... there's hope for nuclear fusion?"
"Able to control the expansion and cooling of energy at will? Could there really be a real dragon inside this egg?"
Looking at the egg on the table, which was half the height of a person, An Ming's eyes instantly burned with fervor.
The magnitude of energy is not actually that scary; there are always ways to deal with it.
But to be able to control energy as if it were an extension of one's arm, changing the temperature from over 400 degrees one second to 26 degrees the next, that would be terrifying.
Thinking about this...
"Quick! Go get Xia! Have Xia contact the people upstairs!"
"The creature inside this egg is definitely not just what I described before; it's very likely a creature that will overturn all our understanding!"
An Ming turned to his assistant and roared.
...
For Anming, nothing is more exciting than making progress in his professional field.
An Ming's assistant scurried off toward Xia Qinglan's office.
"Dad, who's important? I told you I have something important to do here, and I'm not going back tonight!"
Xia Qinglan, holding her phone, spoke with displeasure.
Bah! Yu Xiao, the eggs you sell keep having problems every few days, don't they?
Luckily, I was quick-witted and immediately ran back to my office when I realized the room was too hot...
"Um...this is really a very important person...and I think it would be good for you, daughter, to get in touch with him..."
Xia Minghan on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment before speaking weakly.
My daughter doesn't know that Mr. Yu Xiao sold me the dragon eggs, nor does she know that Mr. Yu Xiao is now cooperating with the government...
If I were to match my daughter with Mr. Yu Xiao, wouldn't I be the biggest beneficiary?
"Besides, daughter, you haven't come back these past few days. Every time I call you, I just say a few words and then hang up."
"As a daughter, it's not unreasonable for you to come back for a visit, is it?"
Thinking of this, Xia Minghan coughed lightly and spoke seriously.
Seeing Xia Minghan say this.
"But I..."
Xia Qinglan frowned slightly, looking a little troubled.
She doesn't really like spending time with too many people.
There's no way around it; people in this line of work are basically limited to saying "no comment" eight out of ten times.
Her family understood her, but outsiders might not... Over time, Xia Qinglan became too lazy to join in the fun.
I finally came up with an excuse to shirk responsibility.
"Thump!"
There was a knock on Xia Qinglan's office door.
As Xia Qinglan raised her eyebrows and covered the microphone with her delicate hand.
"Section Chief Xia, Professor An said you must contact the higher-ups!"
"Professor An said he could guarantee with his reputation and life that the eggs Mr. Yu Xiao sells, once hatched, would absolutely overturn human understanding..."
The next moment, a loud voice rang out in the room.
"what?"
Hearing this, Xia Qinglan blinked.
What the hell? What did you ask me to contact?
...
Despite her curiosity and confusion, Xia Qinglan obediently complied. After all, with a top expert endorsing her, there was no need to question anything.
While Xia Qinglan was making various phone calls.
the other side.
"Okay, it's alright now."
Yu Xiao withdrew his hand and turned to look at An Ming, who was standing expectantly behind him.
I glanced at An Ming's hesitant lip movements.
"It's nothing serious, it's just that the dragon inside the egg has indigestion and wants to go berserk."
Yu Xiao thought for a moment and then made up a reason on the spot.
"A dragon? Indigestion? Wants to go berserk?"
Meeting Yu Xiao's gaze, An Ming blinked.
Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is...
I hesitated for a moment.
"I'll leave today's work to Mr. Yu Xiao."
"It's already 5 o'clock, Mr. Yu Xiao, haven't you eaten yet? How about we grab a bite to eat together?"
An Ming forced a fawning smile onto his face.
Upon hearing this...
"Never mind, I have other plans."
Thinking about where he was going later, Yu Xiao shook his head.
Seeing Yu Xiao's reaction, An Ming felt a little regretful; he wanted to ask Yu Xiao more questions.
But Yu Xiao has already said that.
"I'll call Xiao Hou right now..."
An Ming turned around and walked towards the landline phone not far away.
More than half an hour later.
"Mr. Yu Xiao, thank you so much for today. Just let me know if you need anything in the future."
"Didn't Xiao Xu say before that he was going to approve the project for that abandoned factory in Repulse Bay? Well, the director of the Urban Construction Department of Donghai City is my nephew. I'll give him a call..."
Walking closely beside Yu Xiao, An Ming smiled and spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiao's eyes flickered.
Just as he was about to say something.
Sensing your attention and comfort towards the Shadow Dragon, the Golden Dragon felt neglected and became very aggrieved.
[Having sworn to no longer have any expectations of you, the Golden Dragon held the Shadow Dragon in even greater contempt.]
[Due to the actions of the Golden Dragon, the growth rate has been slowed down.]
