Chapter 2570
''Oh yes, I need to imprint on it.11 Darryl remembered and hastily cut his finger, dripping his blood
onto the dragon egg. Little did he realize that the soul within the dragon egg belonged to Jewel and
she would have followed him for life even without imprinting. Instantly, a blinding light was emitted
from the dragon egg that lit up the entire side hall, signalling the success of imprinting. A relieved
smile appeared on Darryl's face but deep down, he was not overly thrilled as he was reminded of
the scene where he imprinted Rocky ten years ago in an underground private room at the
Incandescent Sect. He had thought at the time that Rocky would be by his side for the rest of his
life, it was least expected for Rocky to end up getting killed in cold blood by Laura Hanson just as
it was close to breakthrough to its peak strength. He had shared so much with Rocky that it was no

dragon egg before him, he still couldn't help but miss Rocky. ''Snap!"
Just as Darryl was drowning in his own thoughts, a crisp sound of eggshell cracking was heard.
Cracks began to appear on the surface and soon a hole was opened up, followed by an adorable little
head that squeezed through the hole. It was a charming baby dragon. It had pale green skin and
because it was still in its birth state, its scales had yet to develop. Its blue eyes reflected the lights
that came into the room as it looked around. It was indescribably enduring.
Both surprised and excited, Darryl took the baby dragon into his hand so delicately as though he was scared he
would drop it. The baby dragon looked intently at Darryl like it's known him for a very long time. It squeaked and
leaned into Darryl with its tiny head. Indeed, the baby dragon's soul once belonged to Jewel. Diaochan had merged
her soul into the dragon egg with a special technique and hence, Jewel I s soul still existed within the realm and
was overwhelmed with joy at the sight of Darryl. However, dragons were the most powerful enchanted beast in
the world with long lifespan and formidable powers. Their growth could be extremely slow in the eyes of a mortal
and so it was normal that it couldn't speak at the moment.
''Hahaha!" Darryl might not know that the soul of the baby dragon belonged to Jewel, but he felt like he could melt
at just how adorable the tiny creature was. He reached a hand to pet it gently on the head and said, ''What a cute
little thing you are! Be nice and listen to me from now on, okay?''
The baby dragon nodded obediently in response.
''Brother!'' Just as Darryl was playing with the baby dragon, he heard Zhu Bajie shouting from outside of the hall.
Zhu Bajie had gone after Diaochan just now but with her reluctance to talk to him, he wasn't given any chance to
catch up with her and ended up heading back.
''Brother, why did Diaochan come to visit? What the-'' Zhu Bajie walked in complaining but was soon interrupted
by the sight of Darryl holding a baby dragon. Instantly, he froze in shock with his eyes widening in awe. ''Dragon,
is this...a dragon? Holy sh*t, we haven't seen dragons for over thousands of years here in the Nine Continents
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow, where did this one come from?'' Zhu Bajie couldn't help but to move closer as he spoke. He could sense
distinctly that though the baby dragon was still young, a strong powerful aura was radiating off of it. It was an
aura that was incomparable to that of ordinary enchanted beasts, it was the aura of a king!
Darryl smiled gently in response and explained, ''This little thing was brought to me by Diaochan and
she asked me to take good care of it.''
''Huh? By Diaochan?'' Zhu Bajie jumped in shock as he tried to process that piece of information.
'Dragons are the most powerful legendary creature known to human history. What is Diaochan
doing, giving it away to Darryl instead of imprinting on it herself?' he thought.
Sensing Zhu Bajie's disbelief, Darryl chuckled before changing the subject and asked, ''By the way,
Brother Zhu, you said earlier that you've gotten updates, howwas it? Are the Carter Family and
Jewel alright?''
