Chapter 273: Green Flame Eagle’s Birth (1/2)
“Tell me, what exactly is his intention?” Bai Luochu faced the Green Flame Eagle’s youngling while talking to herself.
“I am not a fool, even if I am a wooden block, I will be able to detect his feelings towards me. But... it is destined that I am unable to reciprocate. I have no feelings for him. Even if I feel something for him, it is gratitude at best. I just don’t know when his feelings will stop...” Bai Luochu looked at the Green Flame Eagle’s egg and looked like she was truly in distress.
The Green Flame Eagle’s youngling looked as though it wanted to reply to Bai Luochu as it shook a little.
When Bai Luochu noticed the slight movement from Green Flame Eagle’s youngling, she laughed, “Oh you, are you thinking to emerge to speak to me? Fortunately, I didn’t put you high up in the air. Otherwise, you’ll roll off and smash yourself into mush. I am leaving, hurry up and hatch. After you are born, I will go and tell your mother that I have rescued one of her children.” Bai Luochu stroked the eggshell gently after she spoke.
After Bai Luochu stroked the egg, she turned and was preparing to return to the surface and continue her elixir concoction.
But just at this moment, Bai Luochu heard a cracking sound.
“Crack!” Bai Luochu was shocked. She raised her head to look at the ceiling of the underground palace. This is such a concealed place… No one will be able to find it. However, this place is too old! Is this place falling apart?
Bai Luochu shook her head: It’s time to call Ying Lan to repair this place.
But when she took another step, she heard the same cracking sound. Bai Luochu was shocked. She really thought that the place was going to collapse. She immediately returned to where the Green Flame Eagle’s youngling was and she hugged it before running out.
Just as Bai Luochu was about to reach the entrance of the underground palace, she heard the third crack. This time, she was able to confirm the source of the sound. It was precisely the egg in her arm.
Is it hatching?
When she thought about the possibility, Bai Luochu placed the egg onto the ground before walking far away. She fixed her gaze on the hatching egg.
The sound grew increasingly frequent and the crack lines on the egg became increasingly obvious. Bai Luochu might not have witnessed a spirit beast’s birth, but she understood that this youngling was about to emerge from the egg.
With the final crack, the entire egg split into two. A clammy and feathered little head emerged. The two bright and big eyes turned to look at Bai Luochu.
A human and an eagle stared at each other while having individual thoughts.
