Lu Sheng walked away, his spine slightly bent and a smile on his face as he left the Dongyu District Official Hall.
Hong Yuan, however, approached the water tank once again to observe the Red Dragon Carp.
Previously, he had only glanced at it without examining it too deeply.
The Red Dragon Carp closely resembled a regular red carp.
The difference, however, was that the Red Dragon Carp had two faintly bulging horns on its head, and its scales carried traces of barely visible, pale gold Luck Tao runes.
A Luck Tao Variant Seed... I wonder if you can survive past the intelligence-awakening stage, Hong Yuan mused.
Heaven is both fair and unfair.
Variant Seeds like the Red Dragon Carp commonly awakened their intelligence later. They usually underwent this process at the third-tier humanoid Dao Body stage, suffering a significant disadvantage compared to ordinary Demon Beasts that could awaken their intelligence in the first or second tier.
