Reunion with Ya Fei

Jia Nan Academy was a famous Dou Qi institution on the Dou Qi Continent, and one of the few academies besides sects and clans.

In the Northwest Continent, Jia Nan Academy's influence was by no means weak. In Mo Yu's impression, Jia Nan Academy seemed to conceal several super strong persons who had withdrawn from the world.

However, Jia Nan Academy was not part of Mo Yu's future plans.

After all, Jia Nan Academy was most famous for its Cultivation Methods and Dou Techniques, and to Mo Yu, who had been reborn once, those two things were not especially scarce.

Besides that, Jia Nan Academy seemed to possess a fairly high-ranked Heavenly Flame. But with Profound Thunder at his side, Mo Yu was not very interested in it either.

But now that Xiao Yu had spoken up, and for such a reason, Mo Yu naturally could not—and would not—refuse.

Hearing Mo Yu's forthright response, a delighted smile also appeared on Xiao Yu's pretty face. Deep in her heart, her recognition of Mo Yu's identity as her fiancé had grown stronger, like bamboo shoots breaking through the soil.

After the matter was settled, Xiao Yu gently wiped the sweat from Mo Yu's body. Then, blushing, she bid him farewell.

Watching Xiao Yu leave in some panic today, Mo Yu also shook his head complicatedly.

In his previous life, when he had first transmigrated to that continent, he had yearned for sincere feelings between men and women. During an exploration of ancient ruins, he had met a woman with outstanding looks and talent.

At the final stage of the exploration, an accident had caused him and that woman to do that sort of thing. As a result, the two of them had naturally established a relationship.

After that, Mo Yu had given the girl all his sincerity. The two had once been inseparable and sworn to stay together forever.

Yet matters never developed according to people's wishes. While evading a powerful enemy, Mo Yu had fled to a distant place and hidden there for several years. When he returned, his strength had skyrocketed and he had killed his enemy, only to discover that the woman he loved was already lying in someone else's arms.

There had been no melodramatic deception or betrayal. When he had questioned the girl about why she had done it, he had received only a cold reply.

"I liked you before, but now I like him more. That's all."

Only then had Mo Yu truly realized how fickle people could be...

As for Xiao Yu, Mo Yu was not certain that she could stay with him forever. But he did not care. The only thing he firmly believed in was strength!

If he could become a Supreme powerhouse in the future while Xiao Yu remained loyal to him, Mo Yu would not mind granting her sufficient respect and glory.

But if Xiao Yu changed her heart midway, Mo Yu would cast her aside like a worn-out shoe, without the slightest attachment.

Thinking this, Mo Yu also shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind. Half a quarter of an hour after Xiao Yu left, he took the five Lightning Element Magic Cores from his Storage Ring.

Three hours later, as the sun was about to set and the sky was beginning to darken, the Youth walked down from the mountain.

A careful observer would have noticed that his aura was completely different from before.

Two-Star Dou Zhe!

The next morning, Mo Yu rose early.

After using Vermilion Bird Sky-Burning Thunder to devour five second-order Lightning Element Magic Cores the previous day and absorbing the energy fed back by Profound Thunder, Mo Yu had not only successfully broken through to Two-Star Dou Zhe, but had already reached the peak of that level.

Mo Yu even felt that with one or two more second-order Magic Cores, he could advance another step and break through to Three Star Dou Practitioner.

Breaking through two stars in one month might cause one's Dou Qi to become unstable in the eyes of other Dou Zhe. However, Mo Yu had no such concern at all.

With his current physique, although his Heavenly Gang Thunder Body was not yet fully mature, breaking through two stars in one month was still acceptable.

At this thought, Mo Yu once again turned his attention to Magic Cores.

Before that, however, Gold Coins for purchasing Magic Cores were indispensable.

Moreover, before leaving Wu Tan City, it would be best to prepare the remaining auxiliary materials for refining the Beast Ring and Divine Might Black Thunder Spear as soon as possible. That would also require a large amount of Gold Coins.

As the saying went, even a hero could be stumped by a lack of money.

Selling the Profound-tier Dou Technique earlier had solved his immediate needs, but it was not a lasting solution. Besides, if he kept doing such things, people would inevitably grow suspicious. Even a major force like the Misty Cloud Sect could not regularly produce so many Profound-tier Dou Techniques for auction.

Therefore, Mo Yu turned his attention to his old profession: artifact refining.

As an Artifact Refiner, he found making money almost as easy as an Alchemist did.

Thus, after taking stock of his capital early that morning, Mo Yu began another major shopping spree.

This time, Mo Yu planned to refine two different weapons.

The Tiger-Mouth Formation-Breaking Blade and the Dark Nether Snake Shadow Sword.

These two weapons were not of a high grade, only around the second tier, but that was sufficient.

On the Dou Qi Continent, pills reigned supreme and Alchemists were revered above all. This had resulted in the scarcity of Artifact Refiners, making excellent weapons exceedingly rare. In a remote place like Wu Tan City, fine weapons were even less common.

Therefore, although these two weapons were only second-tier, they would be extremely attractive to Dou Shi and even Da Dou Shi. They would definitely sell for a good price.

After making up his mind, Mo Yu no longer hesitated. He left his room and began purchasing the materials.

One of the main reasons Mo Yu had chosen these two weapons was that their refining materials were extremely common. Thus, after half a day and twenty thousand Gold Coins, he had gathered everything.

After finishing the collection, Mo Yu drilled into a nearby inn. He did not leave until an hour later.

Inside the Appraisal Room of the Mitel Auction House.

Ya Fei, the Chief Auctioneer of the Mitel Auction House, was staring at the two weapons on the table with a look of astonishment.

On the left was a long blade nearly two meters in length, radiating intense energy fluctuations. A tiger's mouth had been meticulously carved into the hilt, while strange Dou Qi inscriptions covered the blade, emitting a faint glow from within their patterns.

On the right was a short sword. Unlike the weapon on the left, its blade was extremely short, barely over an inch long. It was pitch black from hilt to tip, yet resembled a venomous snake concealed in the darkness, emitting a dangerous and deadly aura.

"These two weapons are the Tiger-Mouth Formation-Breaking Blade and the Dark Nether Snake Shadow Sword. I'm entrusting them to your auction house for auction." Looking at the shocked Ya Fei, Mo Yu, dressed in a black robe, spoke indifferently.

After thinking it over, Mo Yu had still brought the weapons to the Mitel Auction House after finishing their refinement.

After all, an auction was where they could fetch the highest price.

Seeing the two extraordinary weapons, Ya Fei slightly parted her sensual, rosy lips. She stared in astonishment at the weapons before her, while her full chest gently rose into a captivating curve.

Things were indeed as Mo Yu had guessed. Because the Dou Qi Continent lacked Artifact Refiners, excellent weapons were also extremely difficult to buy even with ten thousand Gold Coins.

Although the weapons Mo Yu had refined were only second-tier, his unique techniques had made them comparable to some third-tier weapons. Such weapons were rarely seen at the Mitel Auction House even once in several years, yet two had appeared today.

Besides, auctioning pills, Dou Techniques, and Cultivation Methods all day could easily cause visual fatigue. Replacing them with two weapons would also allow the auction house to display some of its foundation.

Ya Fei lightly raised her dark eyebrows. Her captivating eyes swept over the Black-robed person before her. As if she had thought of something, a trace of shyness suddenly flashed deep within her Beautiful Eyes.

Then, her pretty face once again filled with a beaming smile and alluring charm. "I didn't expect that after several months apart, Mister would bring our auction house such a major business deal again."
