Chapter 590: The Return of the Old Man

Very soon, the young dragon devoured all ten or so Spirit Grasses the little girl had picked, its forehead now adorned with an additional forty or fifty scales. Including the previous ones, it had broken through the hundred-scale mark, completely covering its entire forehead!

The dragon now appeared as if wearing a crown made of scales, each Dragon Scale reflecting dazzling, golden light in the sunshine, neatly aligned. Though still very young, it already boasted a more impressive presence than at birth, the aura of a Golden Holy Dragon becoming increasingly evident.

Having consumed so many herbs in one go, the overload of medicinal power gathering inside its body seemed a bit too much to digest. Its eyelids began to droop, and its small body swayed before finally collapsing into the little girl's arms, fast asleep.

"Poor thing! Sleep well!" the little girl said tenderly as she hugged the dragon tightly, stroking its little head.
