Chapter 74 Ya Fei's Powerful Qualities

"Why did you take so long?" Qin Yueyao looked at the two who arrived late, her beautiful eyes turning to Xiao Yan. "Is this kid still dreaming?"

Xiao Yu gently bit her red lips; how could she possibly explain what had just happened...?

"It's nothing. My cousin Xiao Yu is about to break through to become a Dou Zhe, and she talked about some cultivation matters." Xiao Yan smiled and casually pulled Xiao Yu to sit on the two empty seats next to Xun'er.

Qin Yueyao scrutinized Xiao Yu's figure: her legs were quite long, and she was a few years older than Yan'er, but she was still too young to tell if she was good at bearing children.

Seeing Xiao Yan devouring his food, Xun'er's bright eyes widened suddenly, and she whispered, "Brother Xiao Yan, you've broken through to become a Dou Shi expert?"

Although I knew Xiao Yan was exceptionally talented, I never expected his cultivation speed to be so fast.

In just about a month, he went from being a Fighter to a Fighting Master.

Such a cultivation speed is extremely rare, even among ancient families.

"Just lucky." Xiao Yan chuckled.

Seeing the two whispering to each other, Qin Yueyao's brows furrowed with worry.

Xun'er is definitely the most outstanding girl she has ever seen, but her background far surpasses that of the Xiao family, which is somewhat wishful thinking...

After the meal, Xiao Yan realized that he had been overthinking things; it wasn't Nalan Yanran who had come.

It turns out that it was that vixen Ya Fei who distributed the blood-clotting powder business to the three major families in Wutan City.

The Mittel Auction House was responsible for supplying the blood-clotting powder, allowing the three major families to fully utilize the markets under their control to sell it.

Today is the day that Ya Fei comes to collect the profits from the blood clotting powder.

Thinking about it, this is a very reasonable solution.

Mittel Auction House focuses on high-priced auction items.

If one were to start a business selling blood-clotting powder, and be constantly besieged by a group of mercenaries, the auction business would inevitably suffer. That would be like losing the watermelon to pick up a sesame seed.

After the meal, some of the younger generation left one after another, while Xiao Yan and several elders went to the Xiao family's reception hall.

Leaning back in his chair, waiting for Ya Fei to arrive, Xiao Yan couldn't help but think of an even more alluring beauty—Medusa of the Snake-People tribe.

Let's collect as much Ice Spirit Cold Spring as possible. Next time we meet, I will not only obtain the Different Flame Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, but I will obtain double it!

This double flame is naturally not two lotus-shaped earth core flames.

Instead, they are two different kinds of strange fire: the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

Because she was not an alchemist by training and had far less information than Yao Lao, Medusa's method of sealing away the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame after violently obtaining it was extremely extravagant.

That used up a whole pool of icy, cold spring water.

If we calculate based on a one-to-one ratio between the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and the accompanying Purple Crystal Source, that would be a whole pool of accompanying Purple Crystal Source.

If the Amethyst Winged Lion were to consume it, it would likely evolve directly from the fourth rank to the sixth rank.

Such abundant resources of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring are undoubtedly the best materials for crafting the Bone Spirit Cold Fire.

This is also an important reason why Xiao Yan did not rush to enter the Tagor Desert.

As they pondered, a sweet, slightly tingling laugh drifted into the hall: "Hehe, Clan Chief Xiao has certainly made quite a few gains lately."

Following closely behind was a graceful and delicate figure that slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

A woman dressed in a red robe walked gracefully towards them. The tight-fitting red cheongsam perfectly accentuated her exquisite and voluptuous curves, and her slender waist swayed in a captivating arc.

At the hem of the cheongsam, a slit extends straight down to the thigh. As she walks, the snow-white fabric dazzles the eyes, revealing glimpses of spring that are both alluring and captivating.

Xiao Zhan stood up with a smile, saying politely, "Miss Ya Fei is too kind. This is all thanks to the Mittel Auction House for providing Hemostatic Powder, a healing medicine that mercenaries like. We're making a fortune together now."

"Hehe, Clan Chief Xiao is quite the smooth talker. The amount of Blood Clotting Powder provided by Mittel to the three major families is the same, yet Xiao Family Market's popularity surpasses that of the other two families. This is a fact witnessed by everyone, which is enough to demonstrate Clan Chief Xiao's capabilities."

Ya Fei smiled and bowed to the three elders in the hall. Her beautiful eyes blinked slightly, and her alluring gaze slowly drifted to Xiao Yan beside her, where she paused for a moment.

"I heard that Young Master Xiao Yan has already broken through to become a Dou Zhe. He reached the Dou Zhe level at the age of eleven. It's almost a certainty that he will become a Dou Huang in the future."

Xiao Yan had always kept to himself and rarely left his home, and Ya Fei had only met him once or twice, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

Thinking that she was over twenty years old and still hadn't broken through to the Dou Zhe level, Ya Fei couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, it's really infuriating to compare yourself to others."

"Sister Yafei, just call me by my name. Let's forget about 'young master'," Xiao Yan said with a seemingly innocent smile, though he was by no means a child.

Upon hearing this, Ya Fei smiled. Xiao Yan was indeed taller than his peers.

"She's easy to raise, but her aptitude is a bit lacking." Qin Yueyao also looked Ya Fei up and down, and found that she also had some flaws.

Breaking through to the Dou Zhe level was something that happened more than a month ago.

Now that her little monkey has broken through to become a Battle Master, her talent in choosing people for him naturally needs to be taken into consideration.

Although Xiao Yan had a marriage agreement with the Nalan family, since the old man recovered from his serious injury and retired to focus on cultivation, the Xiao family had completely abandoned the development plan of relocating to Jia Ma Holy City.

The Xiao family and the Nalan family have had little contact for many years, so the marriage agreement is practically dead in all but name.

Moreover, Qin Yueyao had only heard that her daughter-in-law, whom she had never met, was quite talented, but knew nothing about her appearance.

Qin Yueyao felt it would be more reassuring to personally inspect her son's wife.

She pursed her red lips and gracefully sat down in the chair next to Xiao Yan, getting straight to the point with a light laugh: "Clan Chief Xiao, what are your thoughts on the sales of the Blood Clotting Powder?"

Xiao Zhan didn't rush to explain. Instead, he flicked his fingers through his storage ring and took out a crystal card, which he then had Xiao Yan hand over to Ya Fei: "This is the portion that the Mittel Auction House is entitled to."

With a helpless shrug, Xiao Yan stood up and walked towards his father. "You're making me reveal my identity..."

At this point, Xiao Zhan brought up the matter of the blood-clotting powder business.

"The blood-clotting powder is of excellent quality and can quickly heal mercenaries' injuries. Mercenary groups love it, so the demand is extremely high. The Xiao family has also tried their best to control it, which is why a riot has not occurred."

With a gentle smile, Ya Fei took the crystal card from Xiao Yan's hand, but her pretty face suddenly changed slightly.

A pair of beautiful eyes were fixed on Xiao Yan's exceptionally fair palm.

The black ring and the light red storage ring both confirmed her certainty about Xiao Yan's identity.

Seeing Ya Fei's unusual gaze, Xiao Yan casually sat down next to her without saying a word.

Even so, it put immense pressure on Ya Fei.

Ya Fei naturally dared not offend this powerful figure who was destined to break through to become a Dou Huang in the future, and she carefully concealed the expression on her face.

"Before coming here, I had already visited the other two major families. Due to the riots and fighting among the mercenaries, their own businesses in the market were actually affected, and their overall income increase was far less than that of the Xiao family."

"In this regard, after Ya Fei returns, she will have a thorough discussion with that alchemist about increasing production."

Picking up her teacup, Ya Fei took a sip of tea and glanced at Xiao Yan beside her with her beautiful eyes.

Xiao Zhan was naturally concerned about the situation of the other two major families. It was something he was happy to see his two rivals suffer losses.

After chatting with Xiao Zhan and the others for a while, Ya Fei prepared to take her leave. Xiao Yan, who had been silent the whole time, saw Ya Fei off as she left.

Walking alongside Xiao Yan, Ya Fei felt slightly nervous, her tightly clenched hands covered in sweat.

Ya Fei bit her red lips and secretly glanced at the boy beside her. He was tall and slender with a handsome face. With his black robe, he didn't look like a boy who was only eleven years old.

Perhaps, geniuses are destined to be unique.

Ya Fei chuckled and said, "It seems that Xiao Yan has already left the Xiao family quite far."

"Do you know why I'm following you?" Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, took Ya Fei's hand, and walked into a small grove of trees on the side.

Ya Fei, who wasn't even a Dou Zhe, was naturally unable to resist Xiao Yan's domineering actions.

Although it was already noon, the dense forest was unusually dark.

With her delicate hand smoothing her hair, Ya Fei asked somewhat timidly, "You're not planning to kill me to silence me, are you?"

"I plan to rape you first and then kill you," Xiao Yan said viciously to the vixen.

Hearing these somewhat vulgar words, Ya Fei blushed slightly, gave him a charming glare, and said reproachfully, "How can a child learn so many bad things?"

"The Xiao family's genius not only broke through to become a Dou Zhe at a young age, but also became a genius alchemist." Ya Fei's eyes sparkled as she clicked her tongue in amazement.

Even a fool could understand that with a genius like Xiao Yan, the Xiao family was bound to take off in the future.

It's just unknown who Xiao Yan's alchemy teacher is; they are fortunate enough to have taught this genius disciple.

Xiao Yan crossed his arms in front of him: "The cooperation will continue, but you'd better keep my identity a secret."

"Do I look like one of those big-breasted, brainless, stupid women?" Ya Fei raised her eyebrows.

"They look quite large, but whether they're made of the real thing remains to be seen." Xiao Yan glanced at Ya Fei's ample bosom with interest, then suddenly reached out with his hand.

Her heart skipped a beat. Ya Fei's cherry lips parted slightly. She was being taken advantage of by a boy several years younger than her, yet she found it hard to feel any dislike for his handsome appearance.

Waves of soul power trembled as Xiao Yan gained a clear understanding of Ya Fei's physique.

Cultivation in ancient times was not limited to the path of battle qi. However, as time went by, many cultivation materials were lost, and only battle qi remained as the most widely circulated knowledge.

Besides improving one's fighting spirit, improving physical fitness and soul power are also good cultivation paths.

Ya Fei's skill in cultivating battle qi is indeed average, but she possesses formidable resources...

If one has a suitable method of soul cultivation, one will surely be able to maximize one's charm.

Based on your own cultivation experience, you have had an epiphany; you have comprehended the "Sacred Demon Soul Burning Technique."

【Saint Demon Soul Burning Technique, a special soul cultivation method suitable for women. It is externally demonic and internally holy. The more charming one's appearance, the easier the cultivation will be. The highest level can reach is the Great Perfection of the Spirit Realm.】

Once cultivated, one can manipulate the soul to launch attacks, but the effectiveness depends on the strength of both the cultivator and the target.

Ya Fei leaned weakly against the tree, her eyes glazed over: "Xiao Yan, not here..."

"I'll let you off the hook for now." Xiao Yan squeezed his hand twice more before slowly withdrawing it.

Ya Fei, her face flushed, took a deep breath and hurriedly straightened her cheongsam.

After a while, Ya Fei looked at the wrinkles that she couldn't smooth out no matter what she did, and spat out, "You little pervert."

"You must have made the Blood Clotting Powder, right? There's a huge demand for this healing medicine in Wutan City right now." Ya Fei looked at Xiao Yan with a slightly nervous expression.

"That depends on how much medicine Mittel can provide." Xiao Yan took out a storage ring from his pocket. "This is next month's Blood Clotting Powder. How about preparing what I need?"

Getting down to business, Ya Fei said methodically, "It's all prepared, but beast fire is hard to find. It's not something you can just get anytime. I estimate we won't have a batch until next month. When I deliver the materials I'm collecting this month to you tomorrow, I'll also bring some extra materials for the Blood Clotting Powder."

After a slight pause, Ya Fei pondered for a moment and said, "To be honest, I don't have much say in the family. Beast fire is a hot commodity in the capital; it's either priceless or prohibitively expensive..."

"If we could sell Foundation Establishment Elixir that is effective against those at the Qi of Battle stage, I believe this process would be faster."

Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said, "It's impossible to sell them on a large scale in Wutan City, but it's possible to sell them occasionally throughout the country through the Mittel Auction House."

"Really?" Ya Fei was surprised that Xiao Yan actually agreed when she tentatively asked.

This is the first time in the Jia Ma Empire that something has been designed for the Battle Qi stage.

Xiao Yan chuckled and flexed his hands: "Want to test the authenticity again?"

"Come on, I think I'm really going to get angry." Ya Fei said, feigning anger as she put her arms around herself.

Xiao Yan glanced at the waves that had widened slightly due to Ya Fei's movements and smiled slightly, saying, "Although the Mittel family is a family that values ​​profit, in the Dou Qi Continent, strength is paramount, so one still needs to have some power."

"It sounds easy, but a genius like you would never understand the suffering of us cultivation failures," Ya Fei said helplessly, resting her chin on her hand.

Xiao Yan slowly said, "You are indeed lacking in Dou Qi cultivation, but that doesn't mean you are lacking in soul power cultivation."

"Cultivating soul power?" Ya Fei murmured, rolling her eyes. "Are you kidding me? Everyone in the Gama Empire knows that soul power is innate."

"The Dou Qi Continent is vast, and the Jia Ma Empire is but a drop in the ocean." Xiao Yan reached out and touched Ya Fei's forehead, passing on the "Saint Demon Soul Burning Technique" to her.

Fortunately, his soul power had been raised to the intermediate level of the mortal realm, otherwise it would have been difficult to use this method of transferring power.

When her forehead was touched, Ya Fei's head throbbed slightly as a flood of information poured in. For a long while afterward, she still felt as if she were in a dream: "This is truly a cultivation technique for the soul..."

"Cultivate diligently. I don't want such a good partner to be arranged to marry someone else by the family halfway through." Xiao Yan waved his hand behind him and slowly walked back to the Xiao family.

Standing there watching the boy's receding figure, Ya Fei's heart began to race.

"What are you thinking? I'm several years older than him..."
