The Great White Dragon was dumbstruck and decided not to linger on its earlier question. "Whose life do you intend to save?"
"The heavenly secret cannot be shared." Di Hao refused to tell.
Di Hao gazed at the creature intently and reassured, "You should know that the heart is very important to me, and the world. I am sure that it will not be wasted."
He continued to play around with the Dragon Pearl on his hand. "You will not die even if half of your heart is taken. What you need is to use this pearl to recreate the other half slowly. In 10,000 years, your heart will, once again, become a whole."
The Great White Dragon looked at him in disbelief. "I cannot believe that you are so well-informed about these facts. Who are you, exactly?"
"Di Hao!" He answered delightfully.
"I have never heard of such a name."
"You have now. It is time for you to do what you have promised. Remember, I need the left half of your heart."
