Misty Cloud Sect, Main Peak
In a secluded courtyard where Nalan Yanran resided.
"Junior Sister! Junior Sister! Come here quickly!" Nalan Yanran's voice rang out from inside the room, tinged with excitement.
"What is it, Senior Sister?" Hearing the call, the Little Fairy Doctor slowly entered from outside, holding a food box in her hands.
"It's cracked! It's cracked!" Nalan Yanran pointed at a blue beast egg on the table, her pretty face lit up with excitement.
"What? It's cracked?" The Little Fairy Doctor was momentarily stunned by Nalan Yanran's words but quickly turned her attention to the magical beast egg on the table. Upon closer inspection, she noticed a tiny crack forming at the top of the egg.
"There really are cracks!" The Little Fairy Doctor's face also lit up with excitement. The appearance of cracks meant that the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle was about to hatch, which filled her with joy.
"Junior Sister, it seems the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle is about to hatch soon," Nalan Yanran said, leaning closer to the blue egg, her face brimming with anticipation.
She recalled her junior sister mentioning that once the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle hatched, she would take her to experience the sensation of flying. The thought filled her with excitement. Having grown up without ever experiencing the thrill of soaring through the skies, she couldn't wait.
Hearing this, the Little Fairy Doctor nodded in agreement and said softly, "The teacher said that once cracks appear on the egg, it means it's about to hatch." As she spoke, her pretty face also showed a look of anticipation.
She wondered what the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle would look like when it hatched. Would it be cute?
Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind: should they give the soon-to-hatch Iron-Winged Giant Eagle a name? Turning to Nalan Yanran, who was still observing the egg, she asked, "Senior Sister, what do you think we should name it?"
Nalan Yanran was momentarily taken aback. "Choose a name?" she repeated, a thoughtful expression flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Junior Sister, what do you think of calling it Xiao Tie? Since it's an Iron-Winged Giant Eagle, the name 'Tie' would be fitting."
The Little Fairy Doctor shook her head. "Senior Sister, the name Xiao Tie sounds too plain."
Nalan Yanran thought for a moment and then suggested, "How about Xiaoying? Or Xiaoyi?"
The Little Fairy Doctor: "..."
She looked at Nalan Yanran speechlessly and said, "Senior Sister, why don't you just call it Xiaoju?"
Shaking her head helplessly, the Little Fairy Doctor sighed and said, "Senior Sister, let me think of a name myself."
Nalan Yanran's face flushed with a hint of embarrassment. She realized that the names she had come up with weren't particularly inspired.
The Little Fairy Doctor gazed at the beast egg for a moment, then turned to Nalan Yanran with a smile. "Senior Sister, how about we call it Xiao Xian'er?"
Nalan Yanran: "..."
What kind of name was that? And here she thought her own suggestions were bad! In her opinion, names like Xiaolan, Xiaoyan, or Xiaoran would have been better.
Hearing the Little Fairy Doctor's suggestion, Nalan Yanran couldn't help but complain inwardly. However, seeing the expectant look on her junior sister's face, she hesitated for a moment before tactfully saying, "Junior Sister, the name Xiao Xian'er sounds lovely, but the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle is such a majestic creature. Don't you think this name might be a bit too gentle?"
The Little Fairy Doctor thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "You're right. The name Xiao Xian'er is more suited for a girl, and we don't even know if it's male or female yet."
Shaking her head, the Little Fairy Doctor couldn't come up with a better name at the moment, so she simply said, "Let's wait until it hatches. I'll ask the teacher for a suitable name then." In her mind, the teacher was omnipotent and would undoubtedly come up with the perfect name.
Hearing this, Nalan Yanran nodded in agreement. "Then let's wait until it hatches."
The Little Fairy Doctor placed the food box she was holding on the table and slowly opened it. "Senior Sister, the chicken soup is ready. Let's have some together."
As she opened the box, a rich, savory aroma immediately filled the room. Nalan Yanran's nose twitched slightly as she inhaled the delicious scent, and a look of greed appeared on her face. "Mmm, let's have the chicken soup first. The soup you make, Junior Sister, is always so delicious."
The Little Fairy Doctor smiled slightly. "If it tastes good, then drink more." With that, she served Nalan Yanran a bowl.
Nalan Yanran picked up the bowl and took a sip, her face instantly showing a look of pure bliss. Drinking chicken soup was truly a delightful experience!
...
Just as Nalan Yanran was savoring the delicious chicken soup, a figure in a light green dress gracefully landed in the courtyard. The figure, clad in a simple yet elegant dress that accentuated her curvaceous figure, had her hair tied up in a noble phoenix hairstyle. Her beautiful, serene face exuded an air of calm and grace.
The woman who had suddenly appeared was none other than Yun Yun, who had returned after a month-long absence.
"Where's Yanran, why isn't she practicing today?" Yun Yun's eyes scanned the courtyard but didn't see Nalan Yanran. A trace of doubt flickered across her delicate face.
"Could it be that this girl has been slacking off while I was away?" The thought left Yun Yun feeling slightly dissatisfied.
"Had Yanran forgotten about the three-year agreement with that boy from the Xiao family?
"Hmm? What is that smell? It smells so good!"
At that moment, a rich aroma wafted into her nose. Yun Yun followed the scent and, with a hint of curiosity, walked toward the room.
