Chapter 8: Ten Million Gold Coins, Auction Turmoil!

The Mittel Auction House is the largest auction house in Utan City and also belongs to the Mittel family, the wealthiest family in the Gama Empire.

In the Gama Empire, apart from the royal family, the three great families of the empire are the most respected, and the Mittel family is one of them.

When it comes to wealth, the Mittel family is probably second to none, and even the other two major families in the empire cannot compare with them.

The Mittel family has a long history, having developed in the Gama Empire for hundreds of years. Their relationships are intricate and complex, and they also seem to have some connection with the Gama Empire's royal family.

Therefore, with the powerful backing of the Mittel family, no one dared to mess with them, no matter how tempting the profits of the auction house were.

"Welcome, Young Master Xiao Lei and Miss Xiao Xun'er!"

Xiao Lei and Xiao Xun'er are well-known figures in Wutan City, especially after Xiao Lei crippled Galeo two months ago, which spread throughout the city.

The guards at the gate greeted the two respectfully as they arrived.

"Xiao Lei, Xun'er, you came to the auction house, why didn't you wait for me?"

Just as Xiao Lei and Xun'er were about to enter the auction house, a deep voice suddenly came from behind them.

Xiao Lei looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xiao Zhan, the patriarch of the Xiao family, striding towards him.

"Greetings, Clan Chief!" Upon seeing Xiao Zhan arrive, Xiao Lei clasped his hands slightly and said.

"Uncle Xiao!" Xun'er called out, following closely behind.

Xiao Zhan nodded slightly to the two of them and said, "Let's go in together."

At this moment, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure, dressed in a red robe, walked slowly from the entrance of the auction house.

"The presence of Clan Chief Xiao is an honor to the Mittel Auction House," the woman said with a faint smile and a charming voice.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan immediately burst into laughter and said, "Miss Ya Fei is joking."

This woman was none other than Ya Fei, the chief auctioneer of the Mittel Auction House.

Xiao Zhan, the patriarch of the Xiao family, one of the three major families, knew that Ya Fei was the person in charge of the Mittel Auction House in Wutan City.

Although she had the backing of the Mittel family, Ya Fei, as the person in charge of the auction house, did not put on airs. Upon learning that Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, had arrived, she made a special trip to greet him.

Of course, in the entire city of Wutan, only the heads of the three major families were qualified to have Ya Fei greet them.

Ya Fei smiled, then looked at Xiao Lei and Xiao Xun'er, "These two must be the renowned Young Master Xiao Lei and Miss Xiao Xun'er of Wutan City, right?"

"Miss Ya Fei, you flatter me," Xiao Lei said with a slight smile.

Xiao Xun'er simply smiled and nodded without saying anything.

"Please, all three of you!" Ya Fei said softly, gesturing with her hand.

Xiao Zhan nodded slightly and took the lead into the auction house.

Xiao Lei and Xun'er followed closely behind.

As he passed by Ya Fei, Xiao Lei felt a slight stirring in his heart. He casually touched the alluring body with his hand.

The next instant, the system's familiar voice rang in his mind once again.

[Ding! You touched Ya Fei and received 10 million gold coins! Note: Due to the large amount, this reward will be presented in the form of a gold card.]

Upon hearing the system reward, Xiao Lei's heart stirred slightly, but he remained expressionless and gave Ya Fei an apologetic smile.

Ya Fei's eyes flickered, but she didn't seem to mind.

Led by Ya Fei, Xiao Zhan, Xiao Lei, and Xiao Xun'er went directly to the front row of the auction house.

"Please wait a moment, the auction will begin soon. Please excuse me, Ya Fei," Ya Fei said with a smile after leading the three to their seats.

Xiao Zhan said, "Miss Yafei, please go ahead and do your work."

Ya Fei nodded to the three of them, swayed her hips, and slowly left.

After that, Yafei personally received Jialiebi, the patriarch of the Jialie family, and Aubapa, the patriarch of the Auba family.

After meeting Xiao Zhan, the three of them engaged in a heated exchange of words, which need not be elaborated upon further.

The patriarch of the Jialie family, Jialiebi, looked at Xiao Lei with an icy gaze.

If it weren't for the inappropriate setting and Xiao Zhan's presence, Jialiebi would probably have disregarded his status and attacked Xiao Lei.

Xiao Lei remained as steady as a mountain, ignoring Jia Liebi's gaze.

Once the three major figures of Wutan City had all arrived, the auction officially began shortly afterward.

The auction hall is large; accommodating hundreds or thousands of people is not difficult.

In the center of the auction hall, there was a high platform, and Ya Fei, dressed in a red dress, was standing on that platform, acting as the auctioneer.

Ya Fei was not only beautiful, but her voice was also so alluring that it made one feel weak in the knees.

Amidst Ya Fei's clear, sweet, and delicate voice, the prices of items that weren't actually that rare skyrocketed at an astonishing rate.

Xiao Lei glanced at the items casually, showing no interest in them. Unlike traditional protagonists who would snag a bargain at an auction, he didn't do so, which left him somewhat disappointed.

Not far from Xiao Lei, Xiao Zhan, Obapa, and Jialiebi, the three giants of Wutan City, remained seated and showed no intention of participating in the auction, seemingly waiting for something.

Although the people in the front row remained very calm, thanks to Ya Fei's efforts, the atmosphere in the entire auction hall remained at a high level.

"Hehe, everyone, the auction house has just received a new item, and I think you will all be interested."

After auctioning off her items, Consort Ya suddenly smiled and waved her jade hand. A servant quickly brought over a jade plate with a small white jade bottle on it.

"This is a second-grade elixir," Ya Fei said, her delicate hands carefully picking up the small white jade bottle. Her charming voice brought a moment of silence to the auction.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

A moment later, a commotion broke out.

On the Dou Qi Continent, the most sought-after items are the various pills refined by alchemists.

In a small place like Wutan City, even second-grade pills are extremely precious.

"This substance is called Foundation Building Elixir. It is only effective for those below the level of a Fighter. Soaking oneself in this elixir while cultivating can accelerate the cultivation speed of those below the Fighter level!"

Looking at the bustling atmosphere in the auction hall, Ya Fei smiled charmingly, her red lips parted slightly, and her seductive voice slowly drifted out.

"Hehe, if you all want your children or grandchildren to become child prodigies, then you shouldn't miss this opportunity."

Foundation Building Elixir?

Upon hearing the name, Xiao Lei's heart skipped a beat. He turned his head to look behind him and, sure enough, saw a figure shrouded in a black robe in an inconspicuous corner at the back of the auction house.

That figure was none other than Xiao Yan, who had deliberately concealed his identity.

Xiao Lei glanced at it casually, then looked back at the auction stage, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Foundation Building Elixir? It can actually increase the cultivation speed of Battle Qi? Miss Ya Fei, people at that stage shouldn't be able to withstand the impact of pills, right?"

In the auction hall, there were still a few people who had not been bewitched by Ya Fei. After a brief silence, someone spoke up and asked a question.

Ya Fei smiled and replied, "Don't worry, everyone. This spiritual liquid has been personally appraised by Master Gu Ni of our auction house. It is grade two and there will absolutely be no problem."

Xiao Zhan, who was next to Xiao Lei, suddenly became excited when he heard Ya Fei's words, clearly showing that he was interested in the Foundation Establishment Elixir.

"The initial price for the elixir is eight thousand gold coins. Please submit your bids!"

Ya Fei glanced around and smiled.

"Eight thousand five hundred!"

As soon as Ya Fei finished speaking, someone called out the price.

Soon after, more and more people joined the bidding.

In just a short time, the price of Foundation Establishment Elixir had reached 15,000 gold coins.

The bidding continued for a while longer before the noise finally subsided. Jialiebi, sitting next to Xiao Zhan, couldn't help but bid, "Twenty thousand!"

As soon as Galebi finished speaking, the meeting room fell silent.

Some people, seeing Jialiebi's expressionless face, could only sit back down in frustration.

They simply don't have the strength to compete with the Jia Lie family.

"Heh heh, Jialiebi, didn't your son already advance to the Dou Zhe level? Why are you still eyeing this Foundation Establishment Elixir?"

Not far from Garleigh, the patriarch of the Oba family, Obapa, said with a forced smile.

"Obapa, can't I buy it for my future grandson?" Galebi's face turned cold as he casually retorted.

"Heh, I heard your son's manhood was destroyed. How can you expect to have a grandson?"

Obapa smiled, glanced at Xiao Lei, and then egged him on.

Swish!

Upon hearing Obapa's words, Galebi's face instantly turned ashen, his fists clenched tightly, and a chilling killing intent emanated from him!
