Fox Demon: The villain at the beginning

Chapter 490 The Man Behind It

After walking back and forth several times, Ya Fei suddenly turned around and stopped.

"If there's still no movement after another half hour, we'll have no choice but to break down the door."

Looking at the cultivation room that had been silent for a long time, Ya Fei made up her mind.

Waiting any longer won't yield any results. It's better to take the initiative.

In this way, even if a man fails to break through and is seriously injured, there is still room for recovery.

thump—

Just as Ya Fei made up her mind, a muffled sound suddenly came from the quiet cultivation room.

Then, the bolt slowly turned, and the heavy iron door was pushed open from the inside. A figure stepped out.

As Ya Fei looked up, the figure she had been longing for came into view.

For a moment, she stood there, stunned.

Jin Renfeng walked up to Ya Fei and embraced the woman's slender waist. He smiled and said...
"Why are you acting like this when you see me come out of the pass?"

"You've successfully broken through?"

Ya Fei asked, stunned.

"With my talent, do you think there's any possibility of failure?"

Jin Renfeng said smugly.

After looking the man up and down and seeing that he was indeed unharmed, Ya Fei finally relaxed.

"Honestly, now that you've succeeded, why are you still inside? You've made me worry about you."

Ya Fei gave a soft snort, her voice tinged with complaint.

"There's no way around it; stabilizing one's realm always takes time!"

Jin Renfeng explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Consort Ya nodded, and then added,

"You were breaking through the threshold of the Battle King realm just now, weren't you!"

"That's right!"

Jin Renfeng nodded in agreement.

He had absolutely no intention of hiding anything from Ya Fei.

"Since you were going to break through to the Dou Wang realm, why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

Ya Fei crossed her arms and turned to question him.

"If Master Gu Ni hadn't told me, I would still be completely in the dark, thinking you were breaking through to the Dou Ling realm."

"Don't you think I'm not trustworthy?"

"If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have come here."

Jin Renfeng said helplessly.

"Then why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"I thought you already knew, that's why I didn't tell you!"

"Your sect kept the news so secret that I didn't even know you had broken through to the Dou Ling realm."

"How could I possibly know the situation!"

Consort Ya's eyebrows furrowed in anger, and she said...

"Or do you think that with my strength, I can tell what level you are at?"

"I didn't think well enough."

Jin Renfeng directly admitted his mistake and chuckled.

"But it shouldn't have much of an impact!"

"No impact?"

Ya Fei said angrily,

Do you know how much trouble you've caused me?

"Because of your breakthrough to the Dou Wang level, I have to deal with countless monsters and demons these past few days."

“The city lord of Wutan City, the three major families, and the powerful forces from the surrounding cities all came to visit.”

"In the two years I've been running the auction house, I've never seen so many important people."

"All of this is thanks to you!"

At this point, the woman angrily punched the man's chest.

Upon hearing Ya Fei's complaints, Jin Renfeng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

Those imperial officials alone are difficult to deal with. Not to mention the other forces involved.

Yafei must have put in a lot of effort to handle so many people.

"You've had a tough time these past few days."

Jin Renfeng comforted her.

"As long as you know!"

Ya Fei gave a soft hum.

How are you going to make it up to me?

"Isn't that because we have the Qi Gathering Powder and the Purple Heart Barrier-Breaking Pill?"

Jin Renfeng smiled slightly and said,
"Besides, although there have been more people coming these days."

"But with so many important figures gathered here, doesn't that indirectly increase the visibility of the Wutan City branch?"

"When you think about it, you still came out on top!"

"You're so good at making excuses!"

Seeing the man's expression of as if she had gotten the better deal, Ya Fei was at a loss for what to do with him.

"Speaking of which, now that you've successfully broken through, you should be a Dou Wang level expert, right?"

"Not bad!"

Jin Renfeng nodded.

After saying that, his shoulders trembled, and a pair of deep blue battle aura wings immediately spread out.

Looking at the deep blue flame wings, Ya Fei was in a daze.

A Dou Wang level expert is already on par with the strongest member of their Mittel family, Clan Chief Teng Shan.

He was considered a high-ranking official in the empire.

Moreover, he is so young, only sixteen years old, and has plenty of time to improve his strength.

There is a high probability that he will break through to the Douhuang level in the future.

Perhaps there will be a chance to reach the Dou Zong realm, a level that no one in the Jia Ma Empire has ever reached in thousands of years.

"At that time, he will probably be the strongest person in the Gama Empire!"

Looking at the young man in front of her, Ya Fei felt a surge of anticipation.

"What, would you like to experience the power of a Battle King?"

Jin Renfeng pulled Ya Fei into his arms and grinned mischievously.

Sensing the man's ill intentions, Ya Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and her cheeks flushed red.

She was about to refuse, but the fervor in her heart left her speechless.

A surge of heat coursed from my lower abdomen throughout my body, leaving me feeling utterly weak.

Feeling Ya Fei's slender waist gradually soften, Jin Renfeng understood immediately. He swept Ya Fei up in his arms and carried her towards the bedroom.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The two didn't stop until evening.

He raised his arm and pulled Ya Fei into his embrace. The two nestled together quietly.

When are you planning to return to the capital of Gama?

Lying in the man's arms, Ya Fei asked softly.

The man came here to break through to the Dou Wang realm, and now that he has successfully broken through, he naturally wants to return to the capital of Jia Ma.

Ya Fei was well aware of this.

"I've finally managed to get out of town, I don't want to go back so soon."

Jin Renfeng said calmly.

"So you plan to live in Wutan City long-term?"

Ya Fei turned her body, a hint of anticipation appearing on her pretty face.

"No!"

Jin Renfeng shook his head.

"Now that I have just broken through to the Dou Wang realm, I still need to consolidate my strength."

"Therefore, I can only stay here for a few days."

"After I successfully refine those pills I'm giving you, we'll still need to go to the Magical Beast Mountain Range for training!" He had already planned to wait for his teacher, Yun Yun, in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. Therefore, he estimated that he would be spending the rest of his time there.

"You idiot, do you think this place is an inn?"

"I'll stay for a few days and then leave."

Upon hearing this, Ya Fei suddenly lost her temper, shoved the man's large hand away, twisted her shapely buttocks, and threw her fair back at the man.

Jin Renfeng sat up halfway, supporting Ya Fei's fair shoulders, and said helplessly,

"There was something really urgent this time, so I had to leave for a while."

In reality, Jin Renfeng had no other choice.

Although the three-year agreement has changed in form, it still exists.

Given how much Teacher Yunyun cares for her disciples, she will probably still go to the Monster Mountain Range to find the Purple Spirit Crystal and help Yanran improve her strength.

In this way, the teacher would have no choice but to face the sixth-tier magical beast, the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

With the teacher's current strength, he is no match for the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

It's estimated that they will still be defeated and their strength will be sealed.

If no one comes to their aid, their lives will be in danger.

Therefore, he had to plan ahead and wait in the Monster Mountain Range in advance.

"Besides, it's not like I'm not coming back."

Jin Renfeng continued.

"Now that I have acquired the wings of battle qi, traveling back and forth to the Monster Mountain Range is only a matter of a moment."

"You can come back anytime you want."

"Come back? That's an easy way to put it."

The woman said in a sarcastic tone.

"He's been away from me for months, and Yanran isn't here either. I'm afraid he'll have another mistress on the side."

"How could you possibly know to come back?"

Jin Renfeng's expression was strange.

Although he knew that Ya Fei was venting her resentment, her words gave him the feeling that she already knew about Xiao Yi Xian's existence.

Knowing that things couldn't continue like this, Jin Renfeng quickly comforted Ya Fei.

After some sweet words and gentle reassurance, Ya Fei finally managed to reluctantly accept the matter.

"Once I've settled things here, I can return to the capital of Gama to take up my post!"

Holding the man's strong arm, Ya Fei whispered.

"Then we can be together for a long time."

"What position did the Mittel family assign you when you went back this time?"

Jin Renfeng asked curiously.

"Thanks to the profits from your pill refining, I have consistently ranked first in the family in several assessments."

"Ya Fei said softly."

"Therefore, the family is preparing to appoint me as the supervisory elder and put me in charge of the Imperial Capital Auction House."

"The Inspector General?"

Jin Renfeng nodded to himself.

He remembered that the original Consort Ya was only the acting Inspector after returning to the capital.

With his intervention, he was directly promoted to a full-fledged position, saving a lot of trouble.

"The location is good, but with your abilities, can you command respect?"

Jin Renfeng frowned.

The position of Inspector General, just from the name, suggests a job of supervising people.

However, Ya Fei's strength is quite weak.

Doing this kind of work would probably be extremely difficult.

Therefore, he was also worried about whether Ya Fei could adapt to the position.

After all, this world is one where strength reigns supreme; without strength, holding a high position is not a good thing.

"I know what you're worried about!"

A smile appeared on Ya Fei's pretty face.

"Although I am not good at cultivation, power in this world is not only determined by strength; strategy and ability can also be used."

"Without real strength, relying solely on cunning won't get you far!"

Jin Renfeng sighed.

If this were on Earth, scheming might have been the key to success, but on this continent where strength reigns supreme, without real power, even the most brilliant schemes are nothing but a pile of worthless paper.

"Who says I don't have the ability?"

Ya Fei chuckled softly.
"Isn't this you?"

"If anyone knew that I had a Dou Wang (Battle King) expert behind me, who would dare to make things difficult for me?"

"So they wanted to use me as a figurehead."

Jin Renfeng understood.

Indeed, although Ya Fei's strength is insufficient, it would be a different story if she had a Dou Wang powerhouse behind her.

As one of the top combat forces of the Gama Empire, even the patriarch of the Mittel family had to take it seriously after learning of the existence of a Battle King.

"We're in this together."

"How could I not support you!"

As he spoke, he slowly took Ya Fei's hand.

"As long as you're willing, I'll always be the man behind you!"

"You know what's going on!"

Seeing that the man agreed, Ya Fei gave a soft snort and released her hand.

With his vital organs freed, Jin Renfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

Even now that he has become a Dou Wang powerhouse, he still hasn't been able to get rid of that vital spot.

Her fair, delicate body lay on the man's chest, feeling his heartbeat. A peaceful smile appeared on Ya Fei's charming face.

However, on the other hand, Jin Renfeng's gaze was fixed on the woman's curvaceous figure.

Driven by lust, he sat up, grabbed the woman's slender waist with his large hand, and with a single pull, made her round, jade-like buttocks stick up high.

"Huh? Didn't I say we couldn't do it anymore? Why are you still here?"

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The next day! Mettler Auction House, conference room!
Jin Renfeng sat next to Ya Fei, listening listlessly as Ya Fei discussed business with an auction house employee.

During this time, in addition to his alchemy, Ya Fei also required him to stay by her side at all times as her bodyguard.

Jin Renfeng couldn't refuse, after all, he had wronged Ya Fei first.

It's really unacceptable to borrow someone's land, take their body, and get all the benefits, only to pack up and leave.

"Recently, Liujiafang City launched a powerful healing medicine called Huichun San. As soon as it was launched, it quickly occupied the market, with huge sales and supply falling short of demand."

"Even the healing medicines auctioned by our auction house have been somewhat affected as a result."

"That's what one of the auctioneers reported."

Ya Fei nodded and said,

"I received news that the Jia Lie family has invited a first-grade alchemist, who plans to use cheap 'Rejuvenation Powder' to steal popularity from the city's markets."

"Now, both the Xiao family and the Obama family have suffered heavy losses due to the attraction of healing medicine."

"A first-grade alchemist?"

Upon hearing the word "alchemist," the crowd couldn't help but start discussing it amongst themselves.

"The Liu family is really lucky; they actually managed to find a first-grade alchemist."

Gu Ni sighed.

Because alchemists can continuously produce pills, even first-grade alchemists are in high demand and short supply.

Given the power of the Jia Lie family, managing to acquire even a first-grade alchemist is nothing short of a stroke of luck.

Should we take some action?

Gu Ni looked at Ya Fei beside her.

"unnecessary!"

Ya Fei shook her head and said calmly.

"That Rejuvenating Powder is a low-grade injury medicine, not even reaching the first grade. It is cheap and can only enter the low-end market, taking the affordable route."

"In contrast, our auction house auctions high-end finished elixirs. They are expensive."

"The two target different markets and do not conflict with each other."
