Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn into the Xiao Family, Starting with Xiao Xuan's Inheritance

Upon hearing this, Consort Ya smiled slightly and turned around with utmost respect, bowing slightly to Xiao Yi.

"Greetings, sir..."

This bending over revealed to Xiao Yi an extremely "terrifying" presence.

It must be said that Ya Fei is quite capable.

Xiao Yi simply waved his hand, indicating that Consort Ya did not need to be so polite.

Immediately, Consort Ya, being quite tactful, personally brewed tea for Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi, and softly said:

"I wonder if you have any treasures you wish to consign to the Mittel Auction House today, sir...?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan shook his head slightly, slowly lifted the freshly brewed tea on the table, and took a sip. Then, Yao Lao's voice slowly rang out:

"No, that's not it. I'm visiting today because I have a favor to ask..."

Upon hearing this, a strange light flashed in Ya Fei's alluring eyes, and she stopped what she was doing.

"Sir, please speak..."

"If there's anything my Mittel Auction House can do to help, we will do our utmost..."

Xiao Yan was slightly surprised, not expecting Ya Fei to agree so readily.

Immediately, Xiao Yan took out a yellowed slip of paper from his wide sleeve and handed it to Ya Fei.

"Can the Mittel Auction House obtain these medicinal herbs? If so, I would like to ask Miss Yafei to prepare two sets for each of them..."

Upon hearing this, Ya Fei slowly took the note and her expression changed slightly when she saw the medicinal herbs listed on it.

"Sir, my Mittel Auction House does have all the medicinal herbs, but..."

Ya Fei stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan turned his head slightly to look at Ya Fei: "What's wrong? Are these medicinal herbs too precious...?"

"Don't worry, if I can gather all these medicinal herbs, I can exchange them for pills of equal value, and I'll also owe the Mittel Auction House a favor..."

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Ya Fei's eyes.

After all, Ya Fei clearly remembered what Gu Ni had said: a favor from an alchemist is priceless.

On this continent, you should never offend an alchemist.

The second-grade pill, Foundation Establishment Elixir, was refined by the black-clad alchemist before them.

However, even the second-grade alchemist Gu Ni in the auction house could not refine it, which shows that the mysterious alchemist in front of us is of a higher grade.

If I could gain his favor, it would be far more valuable than the medicinal herbs on this note.

After a moment's thought, Ya Fei didn't hesitate for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Sir, there's nothing wrong with the medicinal herbs on this note. I can prepare both for you, but I hope you can give me some time..."

Xiao Yan took a sip of tea and asked, "How long?"

Ya Fei said softly, "It will probably take at least three months..."

"March!?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback, then turned to look at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi shook his head.

After all, three months is a time that Xiao Yan can probably afford to wait for now.

After all, the Meridian Opening Spirit Pill can only be consumed when one reaches the level of a Fighter.

But Xiao Yi couldn't afford to wait. For Xiao Yi now, time was money, it was life itself.

"That's too long. Can it be done in three days?"

The old man's aged voice slowly rang out.

When Consort Ya heard this three days ago, a bitter smile appeared on her charming face as she said:

"Sir, three days might be difficult. After all, the medicinal herbs on this note are not ordinary. This century-old Condensed Flower alone is quite rare..."

Upon hearing this, the old apothecary deliberately revealed a hint of disappointment in his voice: "So it's difficult to condense a flower that's a hundred years old...?"

"Isn't the Mittel Auction House supposed to be the largest chain auction house in the Gama Empire? It seems so-so..."

Upon hearing this, Ya Fei kept in mind what Gu Ni had said: one must never offend an alchemist.

So even though Ya Fei was somewhat displeased, she still wore a smile on her face.

"Sir, you've misunderstood..."

"These medicinal herbs are precious, but it's not really a difficult task for the Mittel Auction House..."

"However, Chief Gare has pre-ordered nearly three months' worth of medicinal herbs at the Mittel Auction House..."

"As you know, the most important thing in our line of work is integrity. Now that we've received the deposit from Chief Jialie, we certainly can't go back on our word..."

"I hope you will understand, sir..."

Upon hearing Ya Fei's words, Xiao Yi roughly understood the situation.

Now that the Jia family has bought so many medicinal herbs, they must have already invited the willow mat.

They planned to bring down the Xiao family with the help of an alchemist.

With this in mind, Xiao Yi also had a plan.

Immediately, Xiao Yi nodded to Xiao Yan, who instantly understood.

"In that case, I'll come back another day. I hope I'll receive the medicinal herbs I need by then..."

Ya Fei quickly nodded: "Please rest assured, sir, I will do my best!"

Xiao Yan nodded, and then followed Xiao Yi away from the Mittel Auction House.

……

The back mountain of the Xiao family.

Xiao Yan said in a deep voice, "Brother Yi, what do we do now? The Jia Lie family has bought all the medicinal herbs..."

"Three months is far too long; it might affect your cultivation..."

Xiao Yi smiled nonchalantly and said, "Don't panic..."

"The Jia Lie family only paid a deposit; the medicinal herbs haven't even reached them yet..."

Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback: "Brother Yi, do you mean you're going to rob the medicinal herbs?"

Xiao Yi shook his head: "Silly boy, how could that be!"

"I could never do something like robbing medicinal herbs!"

"Don't ask anymore. Just come with me to the Mittel Auction House in a few days. The medicinal herbs will definitely be there then..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan simply nodded and did not pursue the matter further.

After all, if Xiao Yi says it exists, then it definitely exists.

……

into the night.

The back mountain of Wutan City.

Xiao Yi was cultivating in the back mountain as usual.

"Ancestor, would you like to come with me to pull off a big heist tonight?"

Xiao Yi suddenly stopped cultivating and looked at Xiao Xuan, speaking softly.

Xiao Xuan glanced at Xiao Yi and said, "You kid, you wouldn't be thinking of doing something petty or thieving, would you?"

"This kind of thing is disgraceful!"

Xiao Xuan knew everything that had happened during the day, so he guessed that Xiao Yi really wanted to rob or steal the medicinal herbs.

However, a strange smile appeared on Xiao Yi's face:

"Ancestor, what kind of person do you think I am!"

"The fact that the Jia Lie family bought all the medicinal herbs means they must have hired an alchemist to refine pills to deal with the Xiao family!"

"If they succeed, the Xiao family will be in for a rough time!"

"Ancestor, you wouldn't want the Xiao family to be in this state, being bullied by a small family like the Jialie family, would you?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan said in a deep voice, "As an ancestor of the Xiao family, I naturally cannot sit idly by!"

Xiao Yi smiled slightly and said, "Then this junior thanks you in advance, Ancestor!"

Xiao Xuan: "What exactly are you trying to do, kid?"

Xiao Yi slowly stood up and put on the black robe:

"Slaughter the entire Galley family!"
