At night, in Ya Fei's room within the Mittel Auction House, Ya Fei reclined on the couch, her springtime splendor freely on display. Yet there was no one to admire the wonderful scenery in the room. What a pity.

Everything that had happened today left Ya Fei, who had spent several years gaining experience in Wutan City, somewhat dazed.

Eighteen years old!

A third-grade alchemist!

A nine-star Great Dou Shi...

After dinner, while Ya Fei arranged accommodations for Chen Yang, she had beaten around the bush and learned Chen Yang's age and his true strength.

"Good brother, you've truly given your sister a huge problem..." Ya Fei's pretty face carried a trace of worry. The ease with which she usually navigated among Wutan City's Three Great Families had vanished completely, leaving only confusion over how she should face Chen Yang next.

Behind the Mittel Auction House stood an independent small courtyard.

Chen Yang lay on the bed, his hands behind his head as he gazed at moonlight belonging to another world outside the window.

He did not have much attachment to his original world. The pandemic five years ago had left him as the only survivor of his Nine Clans. Living alone for the past five years had given him a mentality far more mature than an ordinary eighteen-year-old young man.

Rather than constantly reminiscing about the past in that world, I might as well ascend to the summit in this one. Perhaps the scenery along the way is the very meaning of my coming to this world! Chen Yang mused to himself, then suddenly thought of Ya Fei from more than half an hour ago.

Ya Fei's self-righteous probing had seemed somewhat clumsy to him.

However, whether it was his first impression upon meeting her or his impression of her from the original work, he held quite a good impression of Ya Fei. Thus, he went along with her and told her some things that could be said.

"Next, I can try to train Guni into a third-grade alchemist and Xiao Zhan into a high-level Great Dou Shi..."

Thinking this, Chen Yang browsed the relevant pill recipes in his mind and ultimately chose one medicinal pill...

The next day, Chen Yang was awakened by his biological clock.

On the streets outside the Mittel Auction House, mercenaries had already begun wandering around the marketplace, seeing whether they could buy fresh healing medicine or pick up a bargain.

Dressed in a cyan robe, Chen Yang left through the back door of the Mittel Auction House and wandered around for a while.

As a fantasy world, the mornings in human cities on the Dou Qi Continent were not much better than those in modern cities, or rather, they could not compare with cities on the Divine Continent.

After taking a brief stroll, Chen Yang wandered back to the Mittel Auction House.

Less than one minute after returning to his room, the two maidservants from yesterday knocked and entered carrying toiletries, apologizing profusely all the while.

As maidservants, they had actually risen later than their host. If Ya Fei or Guni found out, even if they escaped heavy punishment, their wages would at least be deducted.

"Alright, you don't need to apologize. I'm used to waking up early. Just come at this time as usual tomorrow." Chen Yang waved his hand. After washing up, the two maidservants left, then quickly returned with breakfast.

After eating, more than ten minutes passed before Ya Fei seemed to receive word that Chen Yang was awake. She swayed into the room.

Today, Ya Fei wore a red-and-black dress robe, making her a little less seductive than when she wore bright red.

"Sister Ya Fei!"

Chen Yang smiled and greeted Ya Fei.

"Chen Yang... younger brother..." Remembering how she had addressed Chen Yang while beating around the bush last night, Ya Fei blushed slightly.

"Last night, I thought of a medicinal pill. I'll have to trouble Sister Ya Fei to help me collect the medicinal materials... the more, the better!" Thinking of the pill's effect, Chen Yang said with a slight smile.

"Alright!" Ya Fei nodded.

"Wind Spirit Grass, Flowing Cloud Flower..." Chen Yang listed five medicinal materials in succession. "Lastly, one third-grade Wind Attribute Magic Core!"

Ya Fei quickly wrote them down with the paper and pen beside her, then handed the list to Chen Yang. "Chen Yang, younger brother, are these correct?"

Chen Yang glanced over it and nodded.

"I'll go sort through the stock now. Other than the Wind Attribute Magic Core, we should have enough of the remaining medicinal materials!" Ya Fei stood, adjusted her skirt hem, and spoke softly.

"Alright!" Chen Yang nodded. "Once the medicinal materials are ready, call Guni over."

"Alright!" Ya Fei did not ask more. She glanced at Chen Yang, who was sitting on the chair sipping tea, then turned and left.

About half an hour later, Ya Fei entered with Guni.

"Little brother Chen Yang, did you sleep well last night?"

Guni smiled at Chen Yang.

"Quite comfortably!"

Chen Yang replied with a smile and nodded.

"Chen Yang, younger brother, the auction house only has five portions of the medicinal materials in stock. We mainly lack third-grade Wind Attribute Magic Cores." Ya Fei spoke apologetically as she waved her hand and took out five portions of medicinal materials from her storage ring, placing them on the tabletop. "I've already ordered someone to transfer them from the other branches. They should arrive in two days!"

Chen Yang nodded. Five portions of medicinal materials were enough.

"Little brother Chen Yang, what medicinal pill are you refining with a third-grade Magic Core?"

"Even fourth-grade Qi Gathering Powder only uses a second-grade Magic Core!"

Guni looked at Chen Yang in confusion.

Third-grade Magic Cores were generally only used to refine fourth or fifth-grade pills.

"The pill I want to refine is called the Wind Spirit Pill!"

The Wind Spirit Pill was a medicinal pill he had found last night among the pill recipes he knew, one that suited his current plan.

Its effect was also simple. After taking it, there was a chance for a Dou Grandmaster with Wind Attribute Dou Qi to increase by one star. Even if no breakthrough occurred, it could still accelerate cultivation speed for one month.

Then, after one month, a second pill could be taken. This second pill would definitely allow the Dou Grandmaster with Wind Attribute Dou Qi who took it to increase by one star!

To put it simply, it had been specially prepared for Xiao Zhan.

After hearing Chen Yang finish describing the effects of this medicinal pill, Guni was completely stunned.

"This... no wonder you need a third-grade Magic Core. Only the energy of a level three Magical Core can allow a Dou Grandmaster to increase by one star!" Guni said, full of emotion.

On the Dou Qi Continent, there were many pills that could directly increase cultivation level, but most targeted those with high cultivation, such as the Dou Ling Pill and Huang Ji Pill, these sixth-grade pills.

As for pills usable by those below Dou Grandmaster, within the Jia Ma Empire, the ones he had heard of were basically auxiliary pills, such as the Qi Replenishing Pill and Qi Gathering Powder.

"That's right. This pill was first created by my senior sister. Her stupid cat is a Wind Attribute One, so at first it was just for feeding magical beasts. Later, my teacher found out and modified the pill recipe, creating this Wind Spirit Pill!"

"On the Dou Qi Continent, most Dou Qi is Wind Attribute, so I think the market for this pill should be better!"

"Moreover, if the Magical Core is changed to second-grade, it can target Dou Shi. If it is changed to first-grade, Dou Zhe can take it as well!"

"Of course, they are all third-grade pills!"

Chen Yang crossed his legs, leaned back in his chair, and explained with a smile.

In the Jia Ma Empire, or rather, across the entire Dou Qi Continent, alchemists held the most noble status.

But when it came to Dou Qi attributes, Wind Attribute was more common.

For example, in Wutan City, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Mei of the Xiao Family, Jia Lie Ao of the Jia Lie Family, Mu She in Qingshan Town, the Misty Cloud Sect Master and Disciples, Lin Xiuya of Jia Nan Academy, Han Yue's Second Uncle in Central Continent, and the renowned Wind Venerable of the continent all possessed Wind Attribute Dou Qi!

So there was nothing wrong with what Chen Yang said.

"In Wutan City, there are only two Dou Grandmasters with Wind Attribute Dou Qi!"

"However, I think the Xiao Family Patriarch should be very interested in this pill!"

Upon hearing the effect of this medicinal pill, Ya Fei immediately thought of who to sell it to!

"Then this pill will be handed over to Sister Ya Fei to arrange!"

Chen Yang smiled and nodded, then waved his hand and took out the pill furnace, ready to start refining pills...
