Chapter 971: Ya Fei's Favor_1

Xu Ran looked toward Ya Fei in the front, his eyes brimming with satisfaction.

Indeed, the women of the Fighting Spirit Continent have a different flavor compared to those from Soul Land. While both continents exhibit Xuanhuan elements, Soul Land's setting leans more towards Western fantasy with its humans living a life closer to modernity. However, the ancient charm of the Fighting Spirit Continent is much more abundant, and its artistic style is that of pure antiquity.

The Fighting Spirit Continent doesn't have as many technology trees as Soul Land.

Ya Fei was truly beautiful, like a charming and alluring fairy. Dressed in a red brocade gown, although she didn't reveal any sensuality, Ya Fei's perfect body curvature outshone any need for it. Her full breasts, a waist that could be encircled by a single grasp, her rounded pert buttocks, and her long, snow-white legs… Every inch of her was meticulously crafted.

Unfortunately, Ya Fei's cultivation talent wasn't good.

The Mittel Family that Ya Fei belonged to was one of the three great families of the Jia Ma Empire. And the Mittel Auction House in Wu Tan City was just one of the many businesses owned by the Mittel Family. If Ya Fei had been a bit more talented, would she even need to stoop to hosting auctions in a place like Wu Tan City?

In the Xuanhuan World, such occurrences are not uncommon.

If someone lacks considerable cultivation talent and also doesn't bring value to other family matters, they could only be used for marriage alliances to please the numerous more powerful entities.

This outcome was something Ya Fei was unwilling to witness.

The more Xu Ran thought about everything concerning Ya Fei, the more interested in her he became.

For Ya Fei, it was very important to win over powerful geniuses or strong individuals. This was the reason why Ya Fei valued Xiao Yan so much.

However, now that he had appeared, he naturally wouldn't tolerate Ya Fei having any fondness for Xiao Yan.

Xu Ran thought this while looking at Ya Fei's perfect figure, his eyes full of ardent desire.

Such a Ya Fei, with that charm, was something Nalan Yanran, a mere girl, simply couldn't compare to.

"This item is called the Bone Healing Pill, a Second-Grade Elixir, with excellent healing properties," Ya Fei carefully held a small white jade bottle with her delicate jade-like hands, speaking with admiration.

An alchemist, no matter the time, is always respected.

A Second-Grade Elixir is already quite rare in a place like Wu Tan City.

"Good heavens! It's actually a Second-Grade Elixir. Should one get injured out there, this Bone Healing Pill could be life-saving."

"What's a Second-Grade Elixir? I came to see Ya Fei. Miss Ya Fei is so beautiful."

"Miss Ya Fei has such a perfect figure, and she's so stunning. Can any elixir be better than Miss Ya Fei? How wonderful would it be to spend a night with Miss Ya Fei? If possible, I would bid for this elixir and give it to Miss Ya Fei."

"With that cowardly look of yours, do you think you're worthy of even touching Ya Fei?"

"Miss Ya Fei, we support you, this Elixir is mine!"

The auction house was plunged into a climax, whether it was the appearance of Ya Fei or the bottle of Second-Grade Elixir, both were enough to make people cheer and leap for joy.

If one could win the bid for this Elixir, then they might attract the attention of Ya Fei, and she might even personally deliver the Elixir respectfully to their hands. At that moment, when receiving the Elixir, they might even take the opportunity to caress Ya Fei's snow-white hands.

At that thought, everyone was unsettled.

Wouldn't it be ecstatic to be in close proximity to Ya Fei?

And then to smell the fragrance emanating from Ya Fei's body…

"A bunch of old perverts."

Xu Ran curled his lip, finding it somewhat unbearable to watch. These deadbeat otakus aren't fit to be with Ya Fei—they couldn't even dream of it.

Clearly, with him around, others were destined to have no chance.

In Xu Ran's eyes, the elixir in Ya Fei's hands was mere trash.

…

The price of the elixir kept soaring amidst the eager bidding of the crowd.

An elixir, under Ya Fei's auctioneering, might end up with a final price over fifty percent higher than its actual value.

Such was the influence of Ya Fei.

Mark-up value indeed. A product can double in price by just slapping on a label, and a bewitching figure like Ya Fei was even more formidable.

Ya Fei's pretty face wore a satisfied smile.

Clearly, she was very pleased with the performance at the scene.

The Galeo from the great families of Wu Tan City, notably wealthy, shouted out a high bid of thirty thousand gold coins.

Excited, Galeo looked up at Ya Fei above. As a son of the Gale Family, he naturally regarded this Second-Grade Elixir as a must-have. Moreover, this would allow him intimate contact with Ya Fei later on.

This was a significant temptation for him.

Galeo's eyes were filled with fervent desire as he gazed at Ya Fei's curvaceous figure, continuously swallowing his saliva. Such a great beauty—if he could spend the night with her... How wonderful would that be? However, Galeo dared only to think about it, as the gap between the Gale Family and the Mittel Family was vast.

"If the Gale Family annihilates the Xiao Family and becomes the overlord of Wu Tan City, maybe it will attract the attention of the Mittel Family. Then I will have the chance to be with Ya Fei."

"Ya Fei is destined to be my woman," Galeo declared to himself, his mood surging with excitement.

This time, he could leave another good impression in Ya Fei's heart.

"Young Master Galeo is willing to bid thirty thousand gold coins, does anyone offer more?" Ya Fei's voice was enchanting, like that of a siren, causing people's hearts to melt.

"Envious indeed. Galeo is so rich and powerful. Now the Gale Family is too strong, even stronger than the Xiao Family," some whispered.

"With Xiao Yan, that waste, in the Xiao Family, how can they not decline?"

"It's a pity to miss this chance to get close to Ya Fei. To smell her body fragrance would be enough for my lifetime," many envied Galeo.

Galeo smiled slightly, feeling that any amount of money was worth winning Ya Fei's smile

Moreover, it allowed him to leave an impression in Ya Fei's heart.

The chance of pursuing Ya Fei in the future had increased for him.

"I bid one million," Xu Ran's indifferent voice arose.

The entire auction house fell silent at that moment.

Ya Fei was startled, her beautiful eyes turning towards Xu Ran's direction, shocked to her core.

One million gold coins—what was the concept of that? The combined wealth of all families in Wu Tan City probably wasn't even one million gold coins!

My god!

To spend one million gold coins for a Second-Grade Elixir?

Everyone was dumbfounded. Where did this tycoon come from?

"One million? Do you have that much?" Galeo looked towards Xu Ran furiously. He had been fantasizing about how to capture Ya Fei's heart after getting close to her, and now someone was interrupting him.

One million gold coins?

Who could have that much money?

This must be someone causing trouble.

Everyone looked doubtfully at Xu Ran, suspecting his youthful appearance.

"Indeed. Who can come up with one million gold coins?"

"Miss Ya Fei, this person is probably here to disturb the auction, please have him removed," someone suggested.

Ya Fei, however, was curiously looking at Xu Ran. Hosting auctions in Wu Tan City for many years, she had seen all manner of people, but she had never encountered someone as special as Xu Ran.

She could sense that Xu Ran's identity was definitely not ordinary.

This temperament, although appearing lazy, was subtly infused with an extraordinary aura.
