Chapter 484: Farewell
Whether it was luck or some other inexplicable force, just as Ye Chen thought of this, Niu Tian spoke.
"Xiao Chen, this dragon egg has already gained the possibility of hatching. It would be far too wasteful for us to absorb it. We cannot accept it," Niu Tian said firmly.
Although he also greatly desired to absorb the dragon egg, the soul of a powerhouse within him would not allow him to do so.
"Big Brother!" Titan cried out, seemingly unable to believe Niu Tian's decision.
"My mind is made up. There is no need to say more." Niu Tian's gaze returned to its usual calmness. "Xiao Chen, powerful soul beasts have become far too rare on the current Douluo Continent, and those with pure bloodlines are even rarer. Since this little fellow survived the ancient catastrophe, it proves that it is fortunate. I do not wish to destroy a naturally gifted living creature because of my own greed."
Hearing this, Titan fell silent as well, his expression carrying a trace of desolation.
Ye Chen understood. Although they had re-cultivated into human form, they could never truly cast aside the emotions that belonged to soul beasts.
Niu Tian continued, "Xiao Chen, aren't you going to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye? This little fellow already possesses the ability to hatch. What it lacks is merely an immense amount of energy. You should know that there is a Scorching Yang Spring within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye. With the spring's energy, perhaps this little fellow can hatch."
"The Dragon Clan is also oviparous. Once it hatches, it will regard the two of you as its birth parents. If you raise it well, it will become a great source of aid to you in the future.
