In the room where Black Seal City Eight Sects Gate Yuan Yi is located.

Mu Jie is telling Yuan Yi about inviting Xiao Cheng to participate in the auction.

"Master, Shop Owner Xiao doesn't seem to want to come to the auction."

"Oh, why is that?"

Yuan Yi I don't understand why I don't want to come to this auction.

"I don't know, but I am sure that Shop Owner Xiao is not the kind of proud person. He probably doesn't like to be too noisy."

After hearing what Mu Jie said, Yuan Yi nodded and said immediately.

"You just mentioned that Shop Owner Xiao wants to auction his newly researched pastries at our auction?"

"Yes, Sect Master, Shop Owner Xiao said it to me personally"

Mu Jie said it truthfully.

"Do you know the name of the new pastry and what it does?"

"I'm sorry, Sect Master, Shop Owner Xiao hadn't been developed yet at that time. He said he would have it delivered as soon as it was made."

"That's it, then we can only wait for now."

He rubbed his chin in thought.

At this time, a man came to report that it was something sent by Shop Owner Xiao.

Mu Jie and Yuan Yi looked at each other, smiled in surprise, and then Yuan Yi said.

"Bring the stuff over here, please?"

"Yes, Master"

After the man went down, he went to get something.

Mu Jie said with a smile at this time.

"This is really about pastries. Pastries are here, haha."

"Yeah, it's really a coincidence."

Yuan Yi also said with a smile, obviously he did not expect this new pastry to arrive.

Then the disciple came in, put down a wooden box, and left.

Then Mu Jie stepped forward and opened the wooden box, and Yuan Yi also stepped forward with a curious look on his face.

At this time, what caught their eyes was a plate of Osmanthus Cake exuding the fragrance of osmanthus.

"The fragrance of this flower is intoxicating. I wonder what kind of flower this is, but the fragrance is so good."

At this time Mu Jie suddenly saw the folded note on the side.

"Here is a note written by Shop Owner Xiao"

"Open it and take a look"

Mu Jie nodded, opened the note and glanced at it, roughly understanding what kind of pastry it was.

In order to let Mu Jie and others understand this pastry in detail, Xiao Cheng wrote a brief introduction about Osmanthus Cake, including the base price of one thousand two hundred and eighty eight.

And in order to allow the two of them to feel the effect of Osmanthus Cake more intuitively, he also gave two extra pieces of Osmanthus Cake and placed them on the plate for them to taste.

In the end, he said that he would not go to the auction, saying that his shop was very busy, and asked Yuan Yi to just let Mu Jie send the money from the pastry auction.

When Mu Jie handed the note to Yuan Yi, Yuan Yi sighed after reading it.

"I didn't expect that Shop Owner Xiao actually researched this new pastry in just two days, and it is a pastry that has the effect of refining the body."

Mu Jie on the side also nodded in admiration.

"Yes, although Shop Owner Xiao is young, he is indeed a talented person. By the way, didn't Shop Owner Xiao say that he gave two more Osmanthus Cake as gifts? Master, why not give it a try to see what the effect is?"

Hearing what Mu Jie said, Yuan Yi nodded, then took out two pieces from the plate, handed one to Mu Jie, and ate the other himself.

Then Mu Jie thanked him respectfully, took Osmanthus Cake, took a bite, and started chewing.

Similarly, Yuan Yi also took a bite and savored it carefully.

The scent of osmanthus and the soft and glutinous texture of the cake made both of them intoxicated.

After the two of them finished eating Osmanthus Cake, less than five minutes later, they felt warm all over.

Of course, they were not as hot as Zi Yan. They only warmed slightly for more than ten seconds and then slowly returned to normal body temperature.

Then the two of them let out a long breath.

"I feel that my body seems to have become firmer. It is indeed a pastry that can temper the body."

Yuan Yi sighed.

Mu Jie also echoed.

"I have the same feeling. Sect Master, maybe we can wait for the auction to order a large number of these Osmanthus Cake to enhance the physical bodies of our disciples. This will also greatly improve their body's defense and improve their ability to save their lives."

After hearing these words, Yuan Yi thought carefully for a moment, then nodded and said.

"I'll leave this matter to you. After the auction, you can go there in person Rakshasa City"

"He is the master of the sect, and he will definitely live up to his trust."

Then Yuan Yi waved his hand to indicate to Mu Jie that he could go down.

After Mu Jie stepped back, Yuan Yi's eyes fell on Osmanthus Cake in the wooden box again.

"Three plates of Osmanthus Cake, with a base price of one thousand two hundred and eighty-eight Gold Coins. It is estimated that Shop Owner Xiao pastries will set off a wave of craze at this auction."

Fan Ling, who has also been to Ruyi Zhai twice, is currently discussing with his father about Xiao Cheng.

But they don't know that other forces have already connected with Xiao Cheng.

"Since Shop Owner Xiao is unwilling to cooperate with us, we cannot destroy the current balance to avoid angering Shop Owner Xiao."

Hearing what his father said, Fan Ling asked in confusion.

"Is there any difference between not cooperating with us and not angering Shop Owner Xiao?"

"If we don't cooperate with us Blood Sect, at least Shop Owner Xiao won't have any other ideas about us. It will just maintain a balance stage that is neither friendly nor disgusting. If we make a wrong step and anger Shop Owner Xiao, then the balance will be broken, and we Blood Sect will also be disgusted by Shop Owner Xiao."

At this he looked at his son and said.

"Actually, this is not the most important thing. There are more serious consequences than this."

Seeing the solemn expression on his father's face, he couldn't help but frown and asked.

"Is there anything worse than this?"

"Yes, you have to know that Shop Owner Xiao's pastries have magical effects. It is estimated that some forces have noticed it now and will take measures to win over or make friends with them. If we offend Shop Owner Xiao without opening our eyes, without him taking action personally, those forces will use this as an excuse to please Shop Owner Xiao and destroy us Blood Sect."

After listening to what his father said, Fan Ling fell silent.

His father was right, maintaining this delicate balance with Shop Owner Xiao is the key now, at least not making Shop Owner Xiao hate them.

"It seems that we will visit Shop Owner Xiao's store more in the future."

Fan Ling exhaled and said.

After being educated by Xiao Cheng again, he didn't know what was going on. Fan Lao felt that his son seemed to be much more stable, his brain had become clearer, and he was no longer a dandy.

This also made him have to thank Xiao Cheng for disciplining his son and letting him take the right path.

"You're right, by the way, Shop Owner Xiao, have you made any new pastries recently?"

Fan Ling thought for a while and patted his forehead.

"I almost forgot, Shop Owner Xiao seems to have made another pastry called Ox-tongue Pastry recently. I heard from Rakshasa Gate's disciples that it can break the bottleneck."

As soon as he heard that it could break the bottleneck, Fan Lao's eyes suddenly widened with a look of disbelief on his face.

"There are actually pastries with this effect. You must buy them and order them in large quantities. This Ox-tongue Pastry is of great help to us Blood Sect"

Hearing what his father said, he nodded seriously.

"I will go to Rakshasa City to order immediately"

"Well, remember to bring a gift."

Fan Lao reminded.

"I know"

Then Fan Ling opened the door and went out.

Looking at the back of Fan Ling walking out, he murmured.

"I hope I can use the pastries here at Shop Owner Xiao to make Blood Sect a step further."

At this time, Xiao Cheng did not know that Eight Sects Gate and Blood Sect were already planning to place a large order for his Ox-tongue Pastry and Osmanthus Cake.

At this time, he was sitting in a chair in a depressed state, motionless, as if he had been hit by something.

Of course, in fact, he was just greeting the system's relatives in his heart.
