"I am not a mother dragon!"
Wei Yuan was curious: "Do you have genders?"
The Shadow Dragon hesitated, embarrassed: "Strictly speaking, we don't have genders, but laying eggs..."
Shadow Dragons and Corpse Dragons are creations of heaven and earth, naturally without gender. Since there's no gender, theoretically, all can lay eggs. That's how Wei Yuan understood it, and the books said the same.
The Shadow Dragon immediately understood Wei Yuan's meaning and stammered: "Well... it's not impossible. But..."
But Wei Yuan ignored the "but" and directly said: "Then lay one, bigger this time. If it's too small, lay another one."
The Shadow Dragon was tearful, regretting not staying hidden in the clouds. It was all its own fault for trying to please Wei Yuan first upon seeing heaven and earth advance, which ended up in a big pitfall.
The Shadow Dragon coiled up, and moments later, flew into the clouds, leaving behind two eggs.
