Chapter 729

Of course, because her face was wrapped in bandages, Liu Mengyun couldn't see Su Yang's expression.

But Liu Mengyun could see the surprise and anger in Su Yang's eyes.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with this beast egg?"

Su Yang said in a low voice: "There's a major problem!"

"What major problem?"

Su Yang shook his head: "I can't say yet. Go rest first. Let me think."

"Alright!"

Even though Liu Mengyun was extremely curious, she didn't press further.

After Liu Mengyun left, Su Yang stared at the beast egg before him and fell into deep thought.

The attributes of that beast egg were as follows:

【Name】: Twinborn Child · Mutated (Underdeveloped, gradually collapsing and dying...)

【Talent】:

1. Life Revival (rare); 2. Death Withering (rare); 3. Defective; 4. Defective; 5. Defective... (underdeveloped)

【Growth Potential】: King-Rank Top-Grade (underdeveloped)

【Attributes】: Flight, Life, Death

【Skills】: 1. Life Pulse; 2. Life Siphon.

Note 1: The Twinborn Child's vitality is gradually fading; sufficient life force must be replenished to hatch it;

Note 2: The adverse mutation, conflict between life and death, causes the Twinborn Child's body to gradually collapse.

The Chinese often describe geniuses by saying they began cultivation in the womb.

Of course, that's nonsense.

Even the Void Wandering Spirit knows nothing while still in the egg!

But the beast egg before Su Yang already possessed two powerful skills while still inside the shell!

The beast's name — Twinborn Child · Mutated (Underdeveloped, gradually collapsing and dying...) — revealed too much.

Strictly speaking, all of Su Yang's companion beasts had been mutated.

But this Twinborn Child was naturally mutated, which is why the system specifically marked it.

Underdevelopment likely occurred because the mother encountered an accident during gestation, preventing the beast egg from developing fully.

Logically, such an underdeveloped egg should not have survived.

But the Twinborn Child's innate talents and will to live were simply too strong!

Even underdeveloped, it had stubbornly held on until now.

Yet its condition was far from optimistic.

It was gradually collapsing and dying!

The Twinborn Child's rare talent, Life Revival, is an enhanced version of the legendary "Resurrection" skill!

The other rare talent, Death Withering, is an enhanced version of the legendary Death attribute skill, Death Withering!

Generally, an enhanced talent for a certain skill leads to the awakening and mastery of that exact skill.

Like the Void Wandering Spirit — it possessed the talent for Spatial Teleportation, and later mastered the Spatial Teleportation skill.

This means that if this Twinborn Child could develop and grow, it would inevitably master the Life Revival skill!

Death Withering, Su Yang didn't care about.

He had many ways to make enemies die.

But he had no way to bring the dead back to life!

The Twinborn Child's talent defects and low growth potential stemmed from its underdevelopment.

If the Twinborn Child had developed fully, what talents and growth potential would it have had?

The system's warning made Su Yang feel the urgency of time.

This mutated Twinborn Child wasn't just losing vitality — its two conflicting attributes were also causing its collapse...

As for how to replenish the Twinborn Child's life force:

It was actually simple!

Just use one of its skills!

Life Siphon: Absorb the enemy's life force to replenish your own!

Note: Since the Twinborn Child has no offensive capability, it can only absorb life force from enemies through wounds and with no resistance; once absorption begins, it cannot be stopped, and the speed is extremely fast.

This was another reason Su Yang turned pale.

It is well known that when signing a contract with a beast egg, one must cut a wound on the hand and press the egg against it.

To communicate with the beast inside the egg, the Beast Tamer must completely open their mind and body, approaching the egg's consciousness with complete sincerity.

That is when the Beast Tamer is most defenseless.

Which perfectly matches the Twinborn Child's two basic conditions for using Life Siphon.

In other words, if Su Yang, unaware of the danger, rashly signed a contract with the Twinborn Child,

He would likely face death.

If this beast egg hadn't been given to Xi Yao by her grandfather, Su Yang might have thought the Treasures Pavilion intended to kill him.

But he dismissed the thought immediately.

The Treasures Pavilion wouldn't dare touch him!

Even if they wanted to kill him, they wouldn't use such an obvious method.

Poisoning or assassination would be far more reliable!

As for why this beast egg was identified as Life-affiliated, it is likely because the Twinborn has been continuously using the Life-affiliated skill "Life Pulse."

It is precisely this skill that has barely kept it alive until now!

Without any doubt, Su Yang intends to keep this gifted yet underdeveloped Twinborn!

Su Yang can help replenish its vitality.

But the conflict between Life and Death attributes may still require the system.

Don't forget, even if Su Yang hasn't signed a new pet beast, the Pet Beast Cultivation System will grant a new pet beast a matching Mythic Talent!

For the Twinborn, Su Yang is willing to take a gamble!

After all, he cannot sign a new pet beast right now!

"Deputy Officer Liu!"

"My lord, what is it?"

"Tomorrow at four in the afternoon, I will meet with the Treasure Pavilion's representatives; notify them again at noon!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Also, tomorrow, arrange for someone to go to the prison and bring out a Treasure Pavilion beast tamer—I need one with an open pet beast slot who can sign a new pet beast. Bring him to the Governor's Mansion; I have use for him!"

"Yes!"

ps: LSPs, the girls you've been wanting have arrived—they're inside the eggs!
