Chapter 83 Goodbye Ya Fei
"Haha, everyone, it's finally the exciting moment. I believe that the last three items will not disappoint you." On the auction table, Ya Fei finished auctioning the items in her hand with a smile. Suddenly, she waved her jade hand, and a beautiful maid slowly walked up to the platform holding a jade plate. Inside the plate was a square jade box the size of two palms.
"This is the Purple Spirit Fruit. According to the appraisal of Master Gu Ni of this auction house, the Purple Spirit Fruit is one of the main materials for refining fourth-grade or even fifth-grade elixirs. If it is given to a second-grade or even third-grade alchemist, a favor from a high-level alchemist, what kind of connections will the family gain?" The jade hand carefully opened the jade box, and Ya Fei's delicate and tender voice made the venue quiet for a moment. After a while, noisy voices resounded.
In a remote corner of the last row of the venue, Xiao Se tilted his head to look at Hai Bodong and said with a smile: "Old Hai, it seems that you are lucky. You found a medicinal ingredient for refining the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill as soon as you arrived."
Hai Bodong nodded slightly. After everyone in the audience raised the price to 200,000, the wealthy Hai Bodong directly added 100,000, "300,000."
Everyone in the venue was a little surprised by the sudden shout from the corner, but when they saw Xiao Se beside Hai Bodong, they suddenly realized and subconsciously thought of Hai Bodong as Xiao Se's servant.
Looking at Hai Bodong who suddenly made an offer in a remote corner, Ya Fei's beautiful eyes were filled with a hint of solemnity. With her quick thinking and shrewd personality, she would not be so stupid as to regard Hai Bodong as Xiao Se's servant. The arrogance that looked down on the world was far beyond the reach of the seven great Dou Masters in the field. Therefore, she guessed that this was a strong man who had at least reached Dou Ling. As for Dou Wang, she did not dare to think about it. But when she saw Xiao Se wearing a second-grade alchemist robe and a mask, her eyebrows could not help but rise slightly in surprise. This mysterious alchemist gave her a sense of déjà vu.
As expected, the purple spirit fruit was bought by Hai Bodong for 300,000 gold coins, and the last two items were a third-level magic core and an Xuan-level advanced practice method with the same Dou Qi attributes as the original Xiao Yu. Xiao Se spent 250,000 gold coins and 500,000 gold coins to buy them respectively. The auction ended successfully.
After leaving the auction hall, Xiao Se and his companion came to the waiting room under the guidance of the maid.
Sitting quietly on the chairs, the two of them sipped the precious tea served by the maid. Xiao Se looked at Hai Bodong and said with a smile, "Old Hai, I will go to do some personal business after the transaction is over. I'll trouble you to wait for me at the Mitel Auction House for a while. If you sense that someone is attacking me, please come and help."
"Attack you? Could it be Dou Huang?" Hai Bodong put down the teacup, a little surprised.
Xiao Se smiled and shook his head, saying, "That's hard to say. I can only tell you that Wutan City is not as simple as you think. If it weren't for some personal matter, I might never come back."
As the two were talking, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door.
"Haha, gentlemen, Ya Fei is sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." With lotus steps, Ya Fei slowly walked into the waiting room. The moment she entered, a fragrant breeze suddenly filled the room.
Behind Ya Fei were three beautiful maids holding silver plates containing the items that Xiao Se and Hai Bodong had purchased.
"The timing is just right." Xiao Se stood up and casually took out a jade card from the ring, then put the items on the two silver plates into the ring.
After taking the jade card and listening to the familiar voice, Ya Fei was slightly stunned and asked in surprise: "Young man, do we know each other?"
Xiao Se smiled slightly and said, "Miss Ya Fei is so smart, why not try to guess."
Hearing this, Ya Fei looked him up and down. When she noticed the jade belt around Xiao Se's waist, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "You are Xiao Se's younger brother."
"Uh..." Xiao Se couldn't help but twitch his lips when he noticed Ya Fei's gaze. To hide his identity this time, he not only wore a mask, but also covered the magic sword pattern with his sleeves, and even put away the mid-grade storage ring. He never expected that Ya Fei would recognize him just by watching "Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night" only once.
Seeing Xiao Se's reaction, Ya Fei covered her red lips and chuckled, "You are Xiao Se's younger brother. I never thought that after only one year of not seeing you, you not only became a second-rank alchemist but also grew so much taller. Back then, you were half a head shorter than me."
As she spoke, Ya Fei moved closer to Xiao Se and gestured for her height.
"It's true that nothing can be hidden from Miss Ya Fei." Slowly taking off the mask, Xiao Se smiled and shook his head.
Looking at the handsome face of the young man, Ya Fei put her hands behind her back and leaned forward slightly, closing the distance until their cheeks were less than a foot apart. She looked at him curiously and smiled, "It seems that Xiao Se has grown up. Seeing his handsome appearance, I can't help but feel a little moved."
Being stared at by Ya Fei like this, Xiao Se's old face turned red, and he subconsciously lowered his head to avoid her gaze, but unexpectedly he was caught in the snow-whiteness under Ya Fei's jade neck and almost couldn't extricate himself.
With difficulty, he moved his eyes away from the snow-white, took a few steps back, took a deep breath, and quickly returned to normal. He said awkwardly, "Ms. Ya Fei, please stop making fun of me."
Seeing Xiao Se's fleeting shyness, Ya Fei's smile became more intense, and she said with a smile: "It's Miss Ya Fei again. Why, with our friendship, do we need to be so distant?"
"Then Sister Yafei?" Xiao Se said tentatively.
"That's about right." Ya Fei nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Hai Bodong who was drinking tea quietly with an expressionless face, picked up the jade box on the last silver plate, put it on the table next to Hai Bodong, and said with a smile: "Old sir, this is the purple spirit fruit you bid for. If you are a Dou Ling or above, according to the rules of this auction house, you can enjoy a 30% discount. You only need to pay 210,000 gold coins."
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Hai Bodong's indifferent old face. He could see that Ya Fei was just an ordinary fighter, but a small fighter could see that his strength was extraordinary. This vision was truly amazing.
"See if your auction house has other medicinal herbs on this list." After putting the jade box into the ring, Hai Bodong casually took out a list and a purple-gold card.
After receiving the purple gold card and the list, Ya Fei was slightly stunned, then took a breath of cold air and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This is a purple gold card that only Dou Wang strongmen can hold! Are you a Dou Wang?"
