The little creature still inside the eggshell seemed to hear its mother's encouragement. It turned its blade arm and slashed horizontally, instantly creating a finger-length opening in the shell.
It seemed it had used too much force with that slash, as it instantly ran out of strength and remained motionless inside the eggshell for a long time.
Seeing this, the Shadow Golden Mantis raised its blade arm again, ready to break open the incubation pod.
Chu Chen quickly stopped it and said, "Don't be hasty. It should just be tired. It will be fine after a rest."
The Shadow Golden Mantis listened to Lei Yao's translation and looked at Chu Chen with some suspicion.
"This is my Guardian Beast. Why would I harm it?" Chu Chen explained helplessly.
Listening to Chu Chen's explanation, the Shadow Golden Mantis finally retracted its blade arm.
