Story Role / Major Arcs

Return to Jia Ma Holy City and the Meteor Star

After a successful year managing the Wutan City branch, Ya Fei returns to Jia Ma Holy City and reports to Mite'er Tengshan. She presents a strange meteor star she found, immediately recognizing that an unidentified object should be appraised before its value can be maximized 53 54.

When Mite'er Tengshan's full-force Dou King strike is repelled by the object, Ya Fei reacts quickly and oversees its transfer to the appraisal room 54. She later receives Fa Ma and Gu He, personally leading the two alchemists to inspect the Meteor Star 55.

Planning the Heavenly Grade Auction

After Fa Ma and Gu He confirm that the Meteor Star can benefit high-grade alchemists, Ya Fei advises selling it at auction. She warns that public knowledge of the treasure could draw dangerous alchemists and overwhelm the Mite'er Family 57.

Mite'er Tengshan treats the auction as both a reward and a test, placing the Mite'er Family's resources at Ya Fei's disposal. She accepts the responsibility and verifies that the item is ineffective for the family's low-tier alchemists before releasing news of the sale 57.

Ya Fei subsequently hosts the Heavenly Grade Auction, presenting its weapons, techniques, pills, and the Meteor Star to the gathered major factions 61 62.

Encounter with Ling Xi

The auction is interrupted when Protector Wu attempts to seize the Meteor Star. After Ling Xi emerges from it, Ya Fei is the first person to introduce herself and explain that she found the object that sealed him 64.

Ling Xi acknowledges this assistance as a favor owed to her. Ya Fei then guides him away from the devastated auction house and arranges for him to stay with the Mite'er Family 64.

Service to Ling Xi and Return to Wutan City

As the Mite'er Family attempts to build goodwill with Ling Xi, Ya Fei becomes his primary attendant and liaison. She introduces Mite'er Tengshan to him, answers his questions about Wutan City, and helps locate resources he requests 65 66 68.
