The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 914 Scarcity Makes Things Valuable (2nd Update)
At this moment, Yun Jingyang was somewhat afraid of the white tiger's size, and the white tiger, having been seen by Yun Jingyang, felt extremely guilty.

Who would have thought that the art style would turn out like this?

Yun Jingyang was a shrewd man; he had only been a little flustered just now. Now, he saw the guilty conscience in Baihu's eyes.

He immediately knew how to handle the White Tiger.

To truly make Baihu obey him, it's not enough to rely solely on Baihu's fear and apprehension towards Yunran; Baihu himself must also be willing.

"White Tiger, this is your true form. How majestic! However, the water in this pool is too cold. You'd better dry yourself off quickly so you don't get sick."

In fact, given the White Tiger's size and the fact that he is a demon king, illness is something that has nothing to do with him.

However, Yun Jingyang spoke with such seriousness that he convincingly portrayed himself as genuinely concerned.

This immediately moved the already somewhat guilty White Tiger to tears.

The white tiger quickly transformed back into human form, its two ears twitching.

"Brother Yun, I knew you were the best!"

Yun Jingyang: ...

He, who has always been driven by capital, felt a rare sense of guilt at this moment, as if he were trying to fool a fool.

The ginseng fruit had absolutely no impact on the relationship between Yun Jingyang and Baihu.

Anyway, if these two get along well, the host will ultimately benefit more.

The ginseng fruit itself pulled out a sharp dagger and walked towards the giant clam shell.

There are big pearls inside, so we definitely have to take them out. We can't carry such a big clam shell around everywhere.

However, although this clam shell has not yet become a spirit, it is on the verge of developing sentience.

As the ginseng fruit approached, the clam shell sensed a strong killing intent and a sense of crisis.

What the clam didn't know was that if it survived this calamity, it could actually develop intelligence and become a spirit.

However, it couldn't dodge it.

The dagger tapped against the clam shell, and after hearing the sound, the ginseng fruit muttered softly, "It's just lucky it met me~"

Given the size of the clam shell, no one knows how many years it has lived.

The little paper figure saw its leader tapping around with a dagger and knew that its leader was trying to take out the pearl inside.

Those small eyes shone with an astonishing light at that moment.

It immediately put its hands on its hips and jumped around, as this was a gift it wanted to give to its owner, who would surely be very happy.

"Boss, I can help you get the pearl!"

The ginseng fruit glared at the little paper figure: "Are you afraid I'll steal your credit, or do you think I can't extract a single pearl?"

The little paper figure immediately shrank its neck; it had no such intention.

It's just a little excited and thrilled, a rare opportunity to give something to its owner.

Perhaps afraid that speaking too slowly would lead to misunderstanding, the little paper figure quickly waved its hand again: "No, that's not it~"

Ginseng Fruit snorted. His body was made from much higher-grade materials, making it far more powerful than the little paper doll.

If even cracking open a clam shell requires the help of a paper doll, then what use is he?

However, Ginseng Fruit will still teach what needs to be taught.

"This clam shell is just a little bit away from developing sentience. It has always lived at the bottom of the water and has never done anything harmful."

Therefore, even if we want to take its pearls, we must not easily harm its life.

I'm demonstrating how to extract the pearl without harming it!

The little paper figure suddenly realized that all it had thought of was taking out the pearl. "The boss is right. I will remember this well from now on."

Renshenguo took out a talisman that could quickly heal injuries from his body and stuck it on the clam shell.

Then he gently tapped the clam shell: "Cooperate with me a little, and I'll let you go back after I take out the pearl!"

The pearl inside the oyster shell is not a necessity for the oyster, nor is it an important part of its life.

As long as the clam doesn't die, Ginseng Fruit has no qualms about extracting the pearl.

I don't know if the clam shell understood what the ginseng fruit was saying.

They actually cooperated and opened it, allowing us to clearly see where the enormous pearl was.

The ginseng fruit moved swiftly, like a midwife delivering a baby; with a flash of light, the enormous pearl landed in the little paper figure's hand.

The talisman paper pasted on the clam shell was also activated at this time.

A golden light immediately fell on the wound that had been cut by the knife, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for the inside of the clam shell, there were a few smaller pearls, but the pale ginseng fruit didn't even notice them.

Everything is valued for its rarity. A huge pearl is enough to prove its worth; there's no need for any more.

The clam shell thought it would suffer a lot of pain, but compared to its life, it was just a little torment, and it could endure it.

But the wound heals too quickly; just as it prepares to endure the pain, the pain disappears.

This made the clam shell look a little silly.

The ginseng fruit looked somewhat like a heart-shaped pearl, and its size was enormous. The ginseng fruit was very satisfied.

The clam's wounds have healed, so it's no longer needed.

Then the ginseng fruit said to the little paper figure, "Send it back to where it was before."

The little paper figure immediately and carefully placed the pearl it was holding onto the recliner where Yun Jingyang had been carried over.

Then he carried the clam shell back to its original location.

Yun Jingyang and Baihu watched the whole thing unfold. They had been afraid of disturbing the ginseng fruit, so they hadn't dared to say a word.

Now, the dust has settled.

Yun Jingyang looked at the huge pearl, and in his eyes, it was priceless.

His heart was pounding. This treasure had been obtained so easily.
If it weren't for Yun Ran's status as the one in charge, such a pearl would have been a hot potato for the entire Yun family.

But now, even if this pearl is placed at the entrance of Qingfeng Temple for people to see, no misfortune will befall it.

This is the source of Yunran's confidence.

This further solidified Yun Jingyang's determination to ensure that the Yun family could climb onto the coattails of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect).

Yun Jingyang's gaze towards Baihu became even more earnest; this was a shortcut Yun Ran had presented to him.

From now on, Baihu will be his cousin, no, even closer than a cousin.

Baihu didn't know what had happened, but he was very excited to feel the more sincere look in Brother Yun's eyes.

He immediately dragged the giant piece of ebony in his hand forward.

"Brother Yun, if you like this, it's for you!"

Yun Jingyang: ...

Hmm, he'll have to do a proper research later, at least to let Baihu know what can be given away as gifts and what can't.
