Background / History

Ya Fei initially serves as the person in charge and chief auctioneer of the Mittel Auction House in Wutan City. She meets Li Xiao and Linglong when they attend one of its auctions, immediately recognizing that they are no ordinary guests while maintaining her professional courtesy. 31 32

Li Xiao invites her to become Ascending Heaven Pavilion's auctioneer, citing her experience with high-end auction houses and her ability to understand bidders' motives. As an incentive, he presents her with a Rank 6 Pill. 32 Her grandfather, Mitre Tengshan, accepts the offer on behalf of the Mite'er Family and commits the family’s support to her new position. 33

Although initially frightened by the Tier 5 Magical Beast assigned for travel, Ya Fei journeys with Li Xiao’s group to Ascending Heaven Pavilion and witnesses its strength firsthand. 33 She formally introduces herself as the Pavilion’s new auctioneer and declares that she will manage its future auction items. 38

Her cultivation improves rapidly under Ascending Heaven Pavilion’s resources, while her feelings for Li Xiao gradually deepen. 45 146 During an auction recess, Ya Fei finally takes the initiative in their relationship. 157 By the time of Tengshan’s later visit, she and Li Xiao are married. 227

Ya Fei later enters seclusion to strengthen herself, driven in part by her desire to have a child with Li Xiao. She emerges as a six-star Dou Huang after Li Xiao remains beside her throughout her breakthrough. 307 Half a year after the Western Heaven Battle Emperor incident, she announces her pregnancy. 615

Appearance

Ya Fei is a striking woman whose appearance combines refinement with a deliberately seductive presence. At the Mittel Auction House, she wears a vivid red, tight-fitting brocade robe with a silver sash around her waist. 31

• Fair, slender legs and a willow-thin waist. 31
• Captivating peach-blossom eyes and an exquisite face. 32
• A poised, graceful bearing maintained even while negotiating with powerful guests or addressing hostile auction crowds. 32 45
• Later appears in formal auction attire, including a clean white robe during an Ascending Heaven Pavilion auction. 596

Personality

Ya Fei is composed, observant, and highly professional. Even when meeting Li Xiao—whose status she cannot initially identify—she treats him with proper respect rather than suspicion or fear. Her keen judgment of people helps her recognize the value of potential clients and allies. 32

She is also an exceptionally capable merchant and auctioneer. Li Xiao specifically recruits her because she understands auction-house rules and bidder psychology, enabling Ascending Heaven Pavilion to achieve higher prices. 32 She remains committed to her work even after becoming Li Xiao’s wife, repeatedly insisting on returning to organize auction lots and manage the Crystal Stage herself. 687

Beneath her capable exterior, Ya Fei is emotionally vulnerable and deeply devoted to Li Xiao. Her unspoken feelings leave her ill from longing, and her concern over having a child drives her into excessive cultivation. 151 307
