Chapter 823 Mermaid Tears

A few days later, Qi Yu returned to Mingxiao City.

Another month later, Jiang Ran opened a jewelry store called Mermaid Tears at Qushui Tower, bringing with her face powder made from mud clams—Blue Princess Makeup Powder—and some mud clams pearls.

Mermaid Tears Pearl Shop was in a semi-closed state after only one month of operation.

It's not that business is bad.

in contrast.

That's wonderful!

So good that in less than a month, the store's mud kiwi pearls and blue kiwi powder were sold out.

The white mud unicorn pearls were also highly sought after, with the most expensive flawless lake-blue mud unicorn pearl, the size of a pigeon egg, selling for 1.28 million spirit crystals.

Moreover, there's a constant stream of VIPs who want to smash up the Mermaid Tears shop.

This "smashing" doesn't mean literally destroying the shop; it means using countless spirit crystals to smash it.

"No, you open a shop and run out of stock in just one month, what's the point of opening it then?"

The speaker was a young lady from the Wang family, one of the four great families of Mingxiao. She had received the news and came to Qushui Tower very quickly, but she came in high spirits only to find that she had made a wasted trip.

Therefore, he was very upset and threw a small tantrum.

"I'm sorry, Miss, Mud Qi Pearls are extremely rare, and there's nothing we can do about it. If you don't mind, you can register your name and contact address here for one hundred spirit crystals. Next year, when our Mermaid Tears Pearl Shop has new stock, we will notify you one month in advance according to the order of registered VIPs."

The servant serving the guests with Mermaid Tears wore an apologetic expression, but inside he was laughing his head off.

This scene has happened countless times these days, and the servant is very proud that the treasures of his estate are so sought after.

Hearing that she could be notified in advance, Miss Wang was finally less angry and readily handed over one hundred spirit crystals. However, when she opened the booklet, she found that there were at least a hundred names ahead of her!
"I'm already ranked over 100th. At your production rate, when will it ever be my turn?"

The servant hesitated before asking, "Aren't you going to wait in line?"

"..."

"Nonsense, of course we should line up!"

……

Many things are like the weather, slowly turning colder, from one season to another.

In the early winter of the 26th year of Dasu, the people of Dasu all put on thicker clothes.

At this time, Yao Bao and Yun Mao, who had not been in contact with her for about three or four months, suddenly contacted her and told her about two important matters.

Firstly, the giant azure elephant of Yunxiang Mountain is advancing to the Dantian Realm.

Secondly, Xiao Xuan discovered two spirit gold mines.

A magical beast at the Dan Tian realm—who knows what impact it will have on Yun Shang Mountain?

Yao Bao pleaded for help, saying in a coquettish tone, "Ranran, there are many treasures in the Azure Giant Elephant's nest, but many Sea of ​​Consciousness Realm magical beasts are targeting the Azure Giant Elephant's vulnerable period of advancement and are lurking around waiting for an opportunity. Yun Mao and I may not be able to deal with so many Sea of ​​Consciousness Realm magical beasts. Can you help us? You can keep 60% of the treasures we steal, and Yun Mao and I will split the remaining 40%."

So Jiang Ran came to Dongtian Village and met Yao Bao and Yun Mao, the two beasts.

"I missed you so much~" Yao Bao gave Jiang Ran a bear hug and jumped onto her. "Do you miss me, or do you want me to be your henchman?" Jiang Ran picked up the little mouse with the face of a Tibetan fox and shook it gently a couple of times with amusement.

"Hehe!" Yaobao chuckled twice, flatteringly saying, "I want them all~"

As it spoke, it sniffed and suddenly stared wide-eyed at Jiang Ran. Although it had only been a year since they last met, it could sense a much stronger power emanating from her.

"I'm only at the second level of the Sea of ​​Knowledge..." Yao Bao felt that she was even more monstrous than those magical beasts!
Yun Mao was in human form at this moment, his white hair and green eyes scrutinizing Jiang Ran. He said with some melancholy, "I heard you went to sea again and brought back a huge floating island. After we deal with the Azure Elephant, I want to go to the island to play!"

Jiang Ran nodded. "Welcome."

The two of them also spotted Fei Xuan perched on Jiang Ran's shoulder and greeted her hesitantly.

Yao Bao muttered to himself, "A new contracted beast? That jealous Bai Mei actually approved of this butterfly?"

As she spoke, there was a hint of envy in her voice.

……

Before Jiang Ran could even visit the newly discovered spirit gold mine, Yao Bao and Yun Mao took her to the Azure Elephant's Nest.

Ancient trees reach for the sky, and a stream meanders through the forest. The nest of the Azure Giant Elephant is located at the source of the stream. A thick pillar of spiritual energy rises like beacon fires, and many lurking observers are watching from all sides, their eyes fixed on the location of that pillar of spiritual energy.

More accurately, it is the location of the Azure Giant Elephant near the pillar of spiritual energy.

Jiang Ran and Yao Bao, along with other spirit beasts, stood on a thick tree branch, their figures hidden by the lush foliage.

Jiang Ran activated her Purple Jade Demon Eyes, and the distant scenery seemed to be infinitely brought closer.

The Azure Elephant is enormous, standing like a mountain. Its rough skin is covered with a layer of blue rock. Its tusks are white as jade, large and long, and its trunk is thick and long. With each slight sway, it seems to tear the air apart, emitting a deep, booming sound.

At this moment, the Azure Elephant was extremely agitated. It seemed to sense the watchful eyes of the outside world and let out a low, threatening roar. The sound waves surged and crashed with a blue whirlwind, flattening the grass and trees in its path and shattering the eardrums of all living beings that heard it.

Yao Bao covered his ears with his little paws, and after the noise subsided, he rubbed them, looking rather uncomfortable.

Jiang Ran braced herself against the thick tree trunk, then suddenly jumped down and walked back, saying to Yao Bao and Yun Mao, "Let's retreat one kilometer first."

The two beasts were puzzled. Yaobao stopped Jiang Ran, tilted his head and said, "The Azure Glazed Giant Elephant is about to advance. If we retreat now, what if we miss the treasure?"

Jiang Ran bent down, cradling Yao Bao in one arm and grabbing Yun Ang's soft nape with the other, leading the two beasts backward. "That Azure Glazed Giant Elephant has cultivated to the peak of the Sea of ​​Consciousness Realm and lived for hundreds of years. It's not that simple. I ask you, Yao Bao, Yun Ang, if you were about to advance, knowing that many demonic beasts were coveting you, would you be completely unprepared?"

The two beasts suddenly fell silent.

Yun Mao suddenly said, "If it were me, I would kill all the enemies who might threaten me first."

Yao Bao suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and exclaimed with wide eyes, "Could it be?!"

"That's it," Jiang Ran said.

The man and his beasts retreated swiftly.

In fact, even if Jiang Ran chose to fight the Azure Giant Elephant head-on, she might not necessarily lose.

After all, the opponents Jiang Ran had fought were definitely more than one level stronger than this giant elephant.

But Jiang Ran would not underestimate any opponent. Moreover, dozens of demonic beasts at the Sea of ​​Consciousness Realm in Yunxiang Mountain were eager to make a move. If there was a safer method, why not?
Sure enough, two days later, after Jiang Ran led Yao Baoyun Mao to a more distant place, the sounds of fierce fighting came from near the pillar of spiritual energy, which resembled smoke.
