Background

Ya Fei was an orphan raised with the support of the Mite'er Family. Though initially lacking exceptional cultivation talent, she possessed notable business and management ability. Her beauty also drew the unwanted attention of Mu Zhan; avoiding his harassment was a major reason she worked at the remote Wu Tan City branch of the Mitel Auction House. 83 101

In Wu Tan City, Ya Fei served as the branch’s chief auctioneer. She conducted major auctions, including the sale of the Profound-tier Fire Control Art, and personally handled Xiao Kun’s early purchases of a medicine cauldron, storage rings, and pill ingredients. His wealth, self-control, and apparent interest in alchemy immediately piqued her curiosity. 4 7

Xiao Kun later expressed that he wanted the strength to protect and care for her. Ya Fei did not immediately commit, instead telling him that his future actions would determine her answer. 9 He subsequently gave her a high-grade medicinal pill that dramatically improved both her aptitude and cultivation. 13

After leaving Wu Tan City, Ya Fei was protected by Hai Bodong at Xiao Kun’s request. Impressed by her business talent, Hai Bodong promoted her to chief manager of the Mitel Auction House headquarters, where she assumed responsibility for its affairs. With his backing and her own ability, she became the Mite'er Family’s third most influential figure, behind only Hai Bodong and Mite'er Teng Shan. 77

Appearance

Ya Fei is a striking woman known for a refined but overtly alluring presence. She commonly wears red or crimson fitted clothing that emphasizes her curvaceous figure, including a red cheongsam and crimson brocade robes. 4 12

• Charming, seductive facial features and a composed professional expression. 4 12
• Often associated with red attire, particularly a form-fitting red cheongsam. 4 77
• Formed delicate crimson Dou Qi Wings after advancing to Dou Wang. 89
• The Face-Fixing Pill further refined her features, preserved her appearance, and gave her an even more captivating aura. 89

Personality

Ya Fei is composed, socially adept, and highly capable in business. Even when dealing with wealthy or influential clients, she maintains a polished, persuasive manner; as an auctioneer, she understands how to sustain interest and confidence among bidders. 4 7

Her professional calm contrasts with a forceful, authoritative side. As manager of the Mite'er Family residence and auction house, she gives orders without hesitation and is treated with immediate respect by guards, servants, and family members. 84

She is deeply motivated by self-determination. Having once lacked the strength to control her own fate, she embraces cultivation opportunities and works intensely to close the gap between herself and Xiao Kun. 9 134 She is also emotionally sincere: she openly misses Xiao Kun during their separation, trusts him readily, and can become jealous when other women show him attention. 77 90 107

Despite this jealousy, Ya Fei is considerate of Yun Yun and does not want to receive preferential treatment at her expense. 159
