"Since that's the case, then this deal is settled."
The corner of Xiao Cang's lips lifted. With a flick of his finger, he lightly tossed the Dou King Pill toward Ya Fei.
"?!!"
Ya Fei's beautiful eyes widened, and she cried out in alarm.
She hurriedly stretched out her jade-like hand to catch it and cradled it in her palm. Then, still shaken, she patted her chest and carefully checked whether the pill had been damaged.
"Mr. Xiao Cang truly is... unconcerned with trifles."
Gu Ni's eyelids twitched wildly at the sight. Seeing how calm Xiao Cang was, he could not help but reveal a bitter smile.
The pill that was incomparably precious in his and Ya Fei's eyes was as worthless as candy beans to Xiao Cang.
"Little Brother Xiao Cang, this card has exactly two hundred thousand gold coins of credit. Please accept it."
As expected of a gold-medal auctioneer, even while holding the precious Fifth-grade Pill in her jade-like hand, Ya Fei suppressed the heat in her heart first. She took out a black-and-gold card and handed it to Xiao Cang with a seductive smile.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Xiao Cang nodded lightly, took the gold card, and stored it in his Storage Ring.
Although he had the massive Misty Cloud Sect behind him and normally had no need for gold coins,
if the Xiao Family was to develop and grow stronger in the future, then even with the Miter Auction House's support, gold coins would still be needed everywhere.
"Now that the transaction is complete, I won't linger any longer. Sister Ya Fei, shall we have dinner together tonight?" Xiao Cang looked at Ya Fei's naturally alluring face.
"Of course. How could I refuse when Little Brother Xiao Cang has invited me?" Ya Fei smiled faintly, her charm blooming in full.
Then, escorted out by Gu Ni and Ya Fei, Xiao Cang left the Miter Auction House.
After watching Xiao Cang depart, Gu Ni looked at Ya Fei with a complicated expression and asked,
"Young Lady Ya Fei... do you truly intend to spend three days with Xiao Cang? If so, I fear Xiao Cang will not regard you as someone he could marry, but rather..."
Gu Ni did not finish, but Ya Fei knew what he meant—
once she spent three days with Xiao Cang as part of a transaction,
the chances of Xiao Cang being willing to marry her would become much smaller.
After all, who would marry something they saw as a plaything?
Unless...
she could make Xiao Cang so utterly infatuated with her during those three days that he could not let go.
"Master Gu Ni, I'll leave the Dou King Pill in your care for now. Time is pressing, so I need to prepare a few things."
After saying that, Ya Fei hurried away on her long jade-like legs...
She had to study up properly before tonight.
Just as Xiao Cang returned to the Xiao Family, he saw a lively, lovely figure trotting happily toward him with graceful steps.
"Brother Xiao Cang, where did you go? Why are you only back now?"
A delicate fragrance drifted over as Xun'er cheerfully came to Xiao Cang's side. She naturally hooked her arm around his and slipped her jade-like hand into his palm.
"Silly Xun'er, of course I went to retrieve the Human-Demon Puppet." Xiao Cang lowered his voice and said dotingly.
"Hmph, Xun'er isn't silly. Brother Xiao Cang is the silly one." Xun'er wrinkled her nose and scolded him playfully with a smile.
"Brother Xiao Cang, I think I'm about to break through. Can you protect me while I do?"
"Break through? Our Xun'er truly is a genius, already about to condense a Qi Vortex at such a young age." Xiao Cang smiled.
"Hmph, Brother Xiao Cang, don't tease me. How could I count as a genius? Brother Xiao Cang condensed a Qi Vortex when you were only ten. Xun'er is far inferior to you."
When Xun'er said this, she was somewhat proud. Her Husband possessed such talent, so naturally she was immensely proud.
"Enough squabbling. Come on, I'll protect you."
Xiao Cang took Xun'er's hand and returned to the room.
Xun'er sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, while Xiao Cang sat cross-legged directly before her, facing her.
"Xun'er, once you take the Qi Gathering Powder, begin your breakthrough. With me protecting you, no one will be able to disturb you."
"Mm-hmm."
Xun'er nodded obediently, took out the crystalline green pill, and swallowed it directly.
At once, her aura began to rise as she advanced toward the Dou Zhe realm.
A quarter of an hour later, Xun'er's aura reached its peak naturally. She condensed a Qi Vortex and successfully broke through to the Dou Zhe realm!
"Congratulations, Xun'er. You've broken through to Dou Zhe." Xiao Cang smiled as he congratulated her.
"Hehe, it's all thanks to Brother Xiao Cang's Qi Gathering Powder."
Xun'er smiled happily and threw herself into Xiao Cang's arms. With a "smack," she planted a light kiss on his cheek.
That warm, soft touch sent ripples through Xiao Cang's heart.
If Ling Ying had not been lurking somewhere nearby to protect Xun'er, he would definitely have showered Xun'er with affection.
That afternoon, Xiao Cang went out with Xun'er for a stroll. He bought her many pieces of jewelry as gifts, making her overjoyed.
As evening approached, Xiao Cang claimed that he needed to leave for several days to complete some unspeakable mission for the Misty Cloud Sect. After bidding farewell to the reluctant Xun'er, he arrived at the Miter Auction House.
Ya Fei had been waiting for a long time.
The moment Xiao Cang arrived, he saw Ya Fei standing at the entrance of the auction house. Dressed in a fiery red outfit, her figure was enchanting and voluptuous. Merely standing there, she radiated boundless charm.
"Little Brother Xiao Cang has arrived."
When Ya Fei saw Xiao Cang approach, she immediately walked forward with a seductive gait. Her slender waist swayed from side to side, and the perfect curves tightly wrapped in red,
would make even the most disciplined man's gaze burn as he cried out inwardly, What a temptress.
"I've kept Sister Ya Fei waiting."
Xiao Cang's gaze swept from top to bottom over Ya Fei's figure. He clicked his tongue inwardly. This temptress had changed into an even more alluring outfit.
Compared to what she wore that morning, this red attire used less fabric and fit even more tightly.
Ya Fei's figure had already been incredibly hot, but wrapped in this fitted dress, her body looked even more proud and voluptuous.
Furthermore, more skin was exposed before her chest. Her delicate, snow-white collarbones seemed to glow,
Ya Fei truly understood men too well.
Leaving everything else aside, with this outfit alone, what man would not be completely wrapped around her finger?
And beyond her clothing, Ya Fei's alluring face was equally eye-catching.
Her seductive eyes were dreamy, her red lips fiery, and her exquisite, charming features came together like a fox that could steal one's soul.
"Little Brother Xiao Cang, do I look good?"
Feeling Xiao Cang's burning gaze, Ya Fei was not embarrassed in the slightest. With a teasing glint in her seductive eyes, she asked with a charming smile.
"You look good. Sister Ya Fei is so fair."
Seeing how bold Ya Fei was with her words, Xiao Cang naturally did not hold back either.
A teasing smile appeared on his face as his gaze swept over Ya Fei's collarbones, his eyes openly predatory.
Ya Fei was startled, clearly surprised by Xiao Cang's aggressive gaze and words.
But she quickly returned to normal. With a graceful air, she brushed back her hair, then walked to Xiao Cang's side and naturally hooked her arm around his.
"Little Brother Xiao Cang, what shall we eat?"
"Seafood."
The corner of Xiao Cang's lips curled as he answered.
