New Items in the Store

The night stretched on, cloaked in darkness, while the chaotic rhythm of rain filled the air. Inside the shop, however, all was silent.

Thanks to the system's transformation, the soundproofing within the store was impeccable—worthy of praise even in moments like these.

After returning to his room, Luo Chuan lay down on his bed, pulled the quilt over himself, and quickly drifted off to sleep. Meanwhile, Yao Ziyan lay on her bed, her thoughts swirling. It was a long while before she, too, succumbed to sleep.

The next day arrived.

Luo Chuan stretched and yawned as he got out of bed. Opening the window, he inhaled deeply, letting the fresh, rain-washed air invigorate him.

It was another beautiful day.

After a simple morning routine, Luo Chuan went downstairs and unlocked the store door.

But today was different. When he stepped outside, he froze in mild surprise.

Three women stood waiting quietly outside the shop.

---

Among them, Luo Chuan recognized one: Wei Qingzhu, a previous customer who had visited not long ago.

"Good morning, Boss!" Wei Qingzhu greeted him cheerfully. She gestured toward the other two women and introduced them. "These are my friends, Song Qiuying and Lin Wanshuang."

Both women smiled politely and greeted Luo Chuan, though their gazes lingered on him, filled with curiosity.

They couldn't help but speculate—could this seemingly unassuming young man be the same mysterious powerhouse who had caused the terrifying vision in Nine Stars City just the day before?

But as they looked at Luo Chuan, doubts crept in.

He's so young. Could someone this powerful really look so much younger than us?

Despite their questions, they kept them to themselves.

"Thank you for the Coke you sold me, Boss," Song Qiuying said sincerely. "If not for that, I'm afraid my injury wouldn't have healed so quickly."

Luo Chuan waved it off nonchalantly. "No need to thank me. I'm just an ordinary shopkeeper."

Ordinary... shopkeeper?

The three women exchanged amused glances, barely holding back their disbelief.

Wei Qingzhu cleared her throat, breaking the moment. "Boss, when I was here last time, the store only had two items for sale. Are there any new products now?"

Luo Chuan nodded and stepped aside to let them in. "Of course. Come inside and see for yourselves."

---

The trio entered the store, their eyes widening as they took in the scene.

Song Qiuying and Lin Wanshuang were particularly stunned. The sheer extravagance of using colored glazed shelves for displaying goods left them speechless.

But when they remembered who owned the shop, it all made sense. If a store owned by such a powerful individual wasn't extraordinary, that would have been strange.

---

Wei Qingzhu led her friends to one of the glass shelves.

"These are the spicy bars and Coke I bought before," she explained, pointing at the items.

Lin Wanshuang peered at them with curiosity. "If I hadn't experienced the effects firsthand, I'd find it hard to believe the claims written here," she admitted.

Song Qiuying nodded in agreement. "Carrying Coke and spicy bars with you is like having an extra life. Their effects are incredible."

Her words carried weight, as she had personally experienced how Coke could heal severe injuries.

---

Just then, Wei Qingzhu's attention was drawn to a different shelf. On it sat a single, pristine white jade bottle. Unlike the other items, there was only one, making it stand out immediately.

"Is this the new product the Boss mentioned?" Wei Qingzhu wondered aloud.

The three women approached the white jade bottle, their curiosity piqued. They leaned closer, carefully reading the description written below it.
