Chapter 5: The dragon was frightened and decided to slow down its growth?
Yu Xiao: ?
No, what happened?
And some even slow down their growth rate when they are frightened?
Yu Xiao was a little surprised.
However, this data only appeared once and then disappeared.
It seems the people who came before were stopped.
When Yu Xiao walked out of the residential area and into the park a few hundred meters away...
[It was quiet around the dragon egg; it seemed everyone had left.]
Although the environment remains warm and comfortable, the Shadow Dragon senses a deep-seated malice and decides to slow its growth rate as much as possible. Hatching countdown: 251 hours and 55 minutes.
Yu Xiao: ? ? ?
Holy crap! Bro, you can't do this! How am I supposed to get stronger if you don't come out?
"So far, all attributes have only increased by 4 points... That's not enough..."
He glanced at his data panel with a troubled expression, then looked up at the increasingly dark sky.
"I'll call Xia Qinglan and ask her tomorrow!"
Yu Xiao gritted his teeth in resentment.
...
Yu Xiao continued walking deeper into the park.
"What the hell?"
A man in a casual shirt walked out from the side and scratched his head.
Wang Dong, who was specifically responsible for "protecting" Yu Xiao, was somewhat surprised.
Putting aside why Yu Xiao would come to the park so late, just look at the way he walks...
"Is this for real? Is it really possible for someone to walk so easily in a park at night when you can barely see your hand in front of your face?"
"If someone has received specialized training, it's possible to do it, but Yu Xiao clearly doesn't seem to..."
Wang Dong was very puzzled.
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Dong decided to continue following along.
The left foot had just stepped out.
"Ding!"
The communicator that Wang Dong had clipped to his waist rang.
Upon hearing this, Wang Dong's expression changed, and he quickly answered the call.
But before Wang Dong could say anything...
"Wang Dong, right?"
A clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the communicator, but it couldn't hide the weariness in it.
Upon hearing this, Wang Dong straightened his posture and respectfully replied.
The question was about to be uttered.
"I remember your uncle was a professor of materials science, right?"
"Ask your uncle for me what kind of material could withstand a high-density diamond hammer without breaking it, and even dent it..."
Xia Qinglan's voice rang out again.
Wang Dong: ?
"No, Miss Xia, why are you asking that?"
Wang Dong was somewhat surprised.
Xia Qinglan remained silent, not saying a word.
When Xia Qinglan didn't reply, Wang Dong realized he had asked something he shouldn't have.
He hesitated for a moment.
"Okay, I'll text my uncle right now."
Wang Dong nodded.
Wang Dong finished editing the message and sent it over.
"Damn it! I almost forgot..."
Suddenly realizing what was happening, Wang Dong looked at the pitch-black night ahead, slapped the back of his head, and quickly walked forward.
However, the further Wang Dong walked, the more curious he became.
The light here is so dim, and the road is starting to become rugged. Even I have to walk carefully. How did Yu Xiao manage to do it?
Most importantly, what is Yu Xiao doing in the park so late at night? What could possibly be going on here?
Wang Dong, still curious, remained curious.
"Clatter!"
The sound of footsteps on withered branches rang out.
Upon hearing this noise, Wang Dong's nerves instantly tensed up.
I quickly found a sturdy tree to hide under.
"Is Yu Xiao preparing to go back again?"
"But why do I feel like he's a completely different person now? Has he become more confident?"
Peeking out at Yu Xiao walking ahead, Wang Dong's eyes grew increasingly confused.
...
Yu Xiao couldn't help but feel insecure.
Yu Xiao mainly tested the abilities he gained during the day and found that the results were surprisingly good.
First, there's the ability [Night's Edge]. Yu Xiao discovered that he can truly see night as day and walk on any surface as if it were flat ground.
Then there's the [Abyss Creator] ability. Yu Xiao picked up a stone at random and tried it out. He found that the stone had not only shrunk several times, but it had also become much softer, as if its hardness had been completely stripped away.
With these two, although Yu Xiao wouldn't have a chance to use the [Abyss Dragon Roar] ability, he didn't care anymore.
the most important.

"All attributes have reached 17..."
Yu Xiao glanced at the pop-up data panel and his gaze shifted.
Although attribute points no longer increase.
But after this period of change, Yu Xiao felt that the stronger the dragon descendant, the stronger the power that would be fed back to Yu Xiao.
"I'm really looking forward to it... This is still inside the dragon egg... What will I be like once I hatch and even become an adult dragon?"
With a smile playing on his lips, Yu Xiao walked towards his rented room.
Back in his rented room, Yu Xiao, lying on the bed, even had a few sweet dreams.
However, we had to wait until the next day.
Yu Xiao just felt a ray of dazzling sunlight shining on his face.
"The peak breeds false support, twilight witnesses true devotion..."
The phone on the table rang.
Hearing the noise, Yu Xiao rubbed his eyes and got out of bed.
I just answered the phone and put it to my ear.
"You brat! It's 11 o'clock and you're still sleeping?"
"Are you coming to see me or not? If not, I'm coming over right now, I'll drag you here even if I have to!"
A deafening roar came from the other end of the phone.
He got a scolding.
"No, Auntie, I'm coming right now."
Yu Xiao was jolted awake and immediately realized what was happening.
...
More than an hour later.
A taxi stopped in front of a magnificent, gilded building.
"Here, no need to look anymore."
Yu Xiao took a red banknote out of his pocket and handed it to the taxi driver.
While the bald man was still marveling at how rich young people are these days, Yu Xiao opened the car door and got out.
"Jianning Group...a star enterprise in Donghai City..."
Standing on the ground, looking at the towering building in front of him, Yu Xiao squinted his eyes.
The left foot had just stepped out.
"The peak breeds false support, twilight witnesses true devotion..."
Yu Xiao's phone rang again.
Yu Xiao took out his phone, answered the call, and held it to his ear.
"Mr. Yu Xiao, I hope I haven't disturbed you..."
A cautious, crisp voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xia Qinglan?"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Yu Xiao immediately knew who it was.
Perfect timing, I was just about to come find you guys!
However, Yu Xiao had not yet spoken.
"Um, Mr. Yu Xiao, I'd like to ask, why did that egg suddenly lose its vitality? Even the runes on the eggshell have stopped glowing..."
"Professor An checked it out yesterday and said that the creatures inside are dying... Is that true...?"
Xia Qinglan's words came out even more cautiously.
Yu Xiao: ?
What the hell? You can fake your death, huh?
You're a fledgling dragon that hasn't even hatched yet! Is there really any need for this disguise?!
I inwardly cursed it.
"It's alright, I have nutrient solution here to bring this egg back to life."
Yu Xiao spoke calmly.
"Cultivation medium? But Mr. Yu Xiao, you said before..."
"50 per bottle, do you want it?"
"..."
Hearing the silent breathing on the other end of the phone, Yu Xiao pursed his lips.
If I use my skills to fleece the country, is that my skill?
After a few minutes of silence.
It seemed that someone from Xia Qinglan's side had said something.
"Alright! Mr. Yu Xiao, I'll send someone over to pick it up right away!"
Xia Qinglan's voice, filled with gritted teeth, rang out.
Hearing this, Yu Xiao smiled.
Just as he was about to say something.
"Hey! You damn salesman, what are you doing here?!"
