In the early morning, Tang Luo slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
Thinking of something, his gaze fell upon the stone egg.
Last night, just when he was preparing to cultivate, the stone egg emitted a 'crack' sound as if it was about to split open!
This made him exceedingly happy—was the little guy inside finally about to come out?
When he picked up the stone egg, he found it covered in cracks, spreading out in all directions.
But to his disappointment, after waiting a long time, there was no further movement from the stone egg!
He had thought about giving it a smack to break open the stone egg and help the little guy out, but after thinking it over, he abandoned the idea.
He thought of a butterfly—when a butterfly breaks out of its cocoon, if it doesn't do so on its own, it won't be able to fly, and might not even survive!
So, he resisted the urge, just in case his good intentions led to a bad result!
