The True Dragon passed away, Mermaids migrated?
Liang Qu stroked his chin.
"Why would Mermaids leave following the demise of the True Dragon?"
"No one to protect them."
"No one to protect them?"
"Mermaid Tears are no ordinary tears, only great sorrow and pain can condense them, turning into pearls once they hit the ground. They can detoxify all poisons and are used in jewelry worth a fortune, often called 'Pearl King.'
The Dragon Silk made from them is as light and thin as a feather, does not get wet in water. Those two treasures, countless are those who covet them.
While the True Dragon lived, all was well. Now that the True Dragon is no more, the Flood Dragon rules, a far cry from the former's might. Barely able to look after itself, let alone protect others."
Liang Qu looked at the highly transparent Mermaid Tear in his hand, and he could roughly understand.
How does the saying go? When it's not glass, the more it resembles glass, the more valuable it becomes?
