Ya Fei's Sincerity

On another street, Xiao Yi Xian recalled how Ye Tian had transformed into God of Slaughter for her sake, and her heart was deeply moved.

"Xiao Tian, I caused trouble again."

Thinking about how she had only just arrived in Wutan City and had already brought Ye Tian such huge trouble, Xiao Yi Xian felt like she was nothing but a jinx.

"It was just a small matter. Don't take it to heart."

Ye Tian rubbed Xiao Yi Xian's head, telling her not to worry about such things. He was a Cheater now, after all, and he had the ability to protect this little girl.

"Fine! But don't be so impulsive in the future."

Seeing Ye Tian's calm and composed expression, Xiao Yi Xian had no idea what other trump cards he possessed. Still, it was not her place to pry into everything.

"Understood." Ye Tian nodded.

"What was that Dou Technique you used just now? It was so powerful!"

Recalling how Ye Tian had shocked Liu Xi and Jia Lie Ao until their hair stood on end, Xiao Yi Xian found it rather amusing.

"The Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique. You probably can't cultivate this Divine Technique yet. Later, I'll teach you some sword techniques so you can gain close-combat strength."

Xiao Yi Xian's Calamity Poison Body was too special. Ye Tian did not dare teach her the Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique, lest it trigger some unforeseeable change.

"You don't need to teach me. I was just curious."

Xiao Yi Xian also knew about her special condition. Obtaining a Super Divine Skill like the Myriad Poisons Primordial True Art was already a blessing earned over several lifetimes. Besides, she had the Hundred Meridians Body Forging Art, Carefree Travel Body Method, Universe Soul Forging Art, Illusionary Rainbow Wings, and two powerful Dou Techniques. That was more than enough for her to cultivate for the rest of her life.

"Let's go to the Mittel Auction House first. As for Dou Techniques, once you become stronger, you can create your own."

Ye Tian told Xiao Yi Xian not to worry about Dou Techniques. At worst, he could ask Elder Pagoda to create a few specifically for her later.

"Mm! I'll follow your arrangements."

Now that Xiao Yi Xian had followed Ye Tian into the outside world, she would accompany him whether he climbed mountains of blades or plunged into seas of fire. She was willing to do so even if it meant death.

"Your decision was correct. A lightning-attribute Divine Technique like the Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique is far too domineering. If the little girl cultivated it, her Calamity Poison Body would definitely trigger some unforeseeable change."

Jin Yan also agreed with Ye Tian's thinking. Xiao Yi Xian's constitution was special, so they could not recklessly experiment with it.

"Senior, I understand."

Ye Tian had already laid the foundation for Xiao Yi Xian. She now had her own cultivation path, so there was no need for him to worry too much.

After crossing several streets, Ye Tian led Xiao Yi Xian into a few deserted alleys. He then took out two robes and bamboo hats. After disguising themselves, they headed for the Mittel Auction House.

Ye Tian did this to avoid drawing attention. After all, he had just killed Jia Lie Ao. If they learned he was here, it would inevitably bring trouble to the Mittel Auction House.

"This Mittel Auction House is huge!"

Looking at the enormous luxurious estate before them, Xiao Yi Xian felt that the Mittel Auction House was practically a small city.

"The Mittel Auction House belongs to the richest family in the Jia Ma Empire. Their business spreads across the entire empire, and there are many auction houses like this in other cities."

Upon returning to the Mittel Auction House, Ye Tian began making plans. He needed to find an opportunity to visit Mo City and invite Hai Bodong out.

To persuade that old Ice Emperor to emerge from seclusion, all he needed was a Po E Pill. However, Ye Tian could not yet refine a Sixth-grade Pill, so he would have to think this matter over carefully.

Ye Tian then led Xiao Yi Xian directly into the Mittel Auction House. The Guards did not question them. Some guests simply liked to dress mysteriously. For instance, there had been a mysterious Black-Robed People dressed like this some time ago, and they later heard that he was a powerful Alchemist.

Thus, the Guards generally did not question those dressed mysteriously. They would only intervene if someone caused trouble in the Auction House.

After entering the Auction House, Ye Tian led Xiao Yi Xian forward toward the place where Ya Fei usually worked.

When they arrived outside a luxurious room, Ye Tian happened to see Ya Fei and her assistant, Zhao Ling, working inside.

"Sister Ya Fei, Sister Ling, it's me, Ye Tian."

Ye Tian then lifted his cloak and greeted the two women.

Xiao Yi Xian also lifted her cloak, revealing her pretty and adorable face.

"X-Xiao Tian? You're here!"

When Ya Fei saw that it was Ye Tian, she hurriedly pulled him and Xiao Yi Xian into the room. Seeing the little fellow dressed all in black, she guessed that Ye Tian might have run into trouble.

"Click..."

Zhao Ling gently closed the Room Door beside them to prevent the other staff from seeing Ye Tian.

"Since you've come here, your sister will protect you."

Now that Ye Tian had arrived without Ye Hai and his wife accompanying him, Ya Fei knew something must have happened to the little fellow's parents.

"Come on, let's go to my place first."

Ya Fei then led Ye Tian and Xiao Yi Xian out through the back door and hurried toward her residence.

After passing through several doors, the three arrived at a corridor and continued walking forward.

"Xiao Tian, stay and help your sister from now on. Whatever Cultivation Resources you need, I'll do my utmost to get them for you."

Ya Fei intended to nurture Ye Tian. The little fellow was a genius, and barring accidents, he would definitely become a powerhouse in the future.

"No problem. Isn't that why I came?"

Ye Tian nodded. He had come to the Auction House this time to earn money and obtain Cultivation Resources through Ya Fei. The Mittel Auction House had powerful channels and could acquire many Spirit Herbs.

Ya Fei was beautiful, with a voluptuous figure and a seductive aura about her. She was simply a Fox spirit capable of enchanting all living beings. However, her cultivation talent was poor. At twenty-three, she was only a Seven-star Dou Practitioner. That was only because Ye Tian had reminded her over the years, prompting her to cultivate diligently, and she had also used many pills to force her strength up to the Seven-star Dou Practitioner level.

When she had first arrived in Wutan City, her strength had been even lower. She had come to this remote city to gain experience in the hope of accomplishing something and earning her family's attention.

"That's wonderful."

Seeing Ye Tian agree, Ya Fei was delighted. As long as this little fellow grew up, he would become a powerful source of support for her in the future.

"This little sister is so pretty. What should I call you?"

Ya Fei looked curiously at the little girl beside Ye Tian.

"Hello, Sister Ya Fei. My name is Xiao Yi Xian. I'm Xiao Tian's friend, and I'm also a physician."

Xiao Yi Xian stepped forward and introduced herself to Ya Fei. Since she would be spending time here in the future, she needed to build a good relationship with this woman.

At that moment, Xiao Yi Xian looked at Ya Fei's voluptuous figure, then at her own petite and delicate body. Her confidence immediately took a hit. Hopefully, once she grew up, she would be able to compare with Ya Fei.

"Xiao Yi Xian is a Three-Star Dou Zhe. Her strength is fairly decent, and she's only two years older than me."

Ye Tian introduced Xiao Yi Xian's strength to Ya Fei, but he did not mention that the little girl had only cultivated for half a month, fearing that he would frighten Ya Fei.

"An eighteen-year-old Three-Star Dou Zhe? I never expected little sister to be so impressive. You'll have to take good care of your sister in the future."

Ya Fei could not have asked for more than a genius like Xiao Yi Xian. Besides, the girl had been brought by Ye Tian, so she was one of their own.

"Thank you, Sister Ya Fei."

Xiao Yi Xian hurriedly thanked Ya Fei. She had originally thought that a young lady from a great family would be arrogant, but Ya Fei was so gentle. That was wonderful.

The three chatted as they walked. During that time, Ya Fei asked why Zhang Hu had not returned with them. Ye Tian could only say that Zhang Hu wanted to spend time with his family, so he and Xiao Yi Xian had set off first.

"Master Gu Ni, did you fail again?"

As they passed Master Gu Ni's Room Door, Ye Tian heard a sigh from within and knew that the old man had failed to refine a Third-grade Pill.

"Creak..."

"You brat, you're finally back. We've been worried sick about you."

Before the words had even faded, the Room Door flew open, and an energetic old man rushed out excitedly and pulled Ye Tian inside.

"Sister Ya Fei, who is this senior?" Xiao Yi Xian was very curious about the identity of the blue-robed elder.

"He is a Second Grade Alchemist of our family and also my uncle. Everyone calls him Master Gu Ni. Xiao Tian studied alchemy with him for a time before, and Uncle Gu Ni thinks very highly of him."

Ya Fei introduced him to Xiao Yi Xian with a smile. She then led the little girl into Master Gu Ni's residence and carefully brewed tea for everyone.

"Not bad, not bad. It's only been half a year, but you've changed quite a lot, brat."

Seeing the change in Ye Tian's entire bearing, Master Gu Ni was somewhat surprised.

"I cultivated bitterly in the Monster Mountain Range for half a year, so naturally I changed." Ye Tian nodded.

"Xiao Tian, tell your sister. What did your family experience in the Monster Mountain Range?"

At this moment, Ya Fei questioned Ye Tian. Losing an Eight-star Dou Master Guard had been quite a pity.

"Our family encountered a Fourth-order Magical Beast, a Crimson Flame Tiger, in the Monster Mountain Range... With nowhere to run, I had no choice but to jump off a cliff. After narrowly escaping death, I finally made it out alive."

Seeing this, Ye Tian could only briefly explain to Ya Fei and Gu Ni what had happened when his family was attacked.

"Xiao Tian, you've truly suffered."

When Ya Fei heard that Ye Tian had jumped from a hundred-meter cliff, she was immediately startled. If it had been her, she would have been reduced to bones long ago.

"Survive a great calamity, and blessings will surely follow."

"Should we send someone to help you kill that Crimson Flame Tiger?"

Master Gu Ni greatly admired Ye Tian for escaping alive from the jaws of a Fourth-order Magical Beast. If it had been him at Ye Tian's age, he would never have managed it.

"Master Gu Ni, there's no need. I'll deal with that Crimson Flame Tiger myself someday."

Ye Tian declined Master Gu Ni's kindness. The old man was only a Three-Star Dou Grandmaster now, and he could not defeat that giant tiger either.

"Then what is your strength now?" Ya Fei asked curiously.

"Two-Star Dou Master." Ye Tian nodded.

"You're already a Two-Star Dou Master?"

"Quick, show us."

Hearing that Ye Tian had become so powerful, Ya Fei and Master Gu Ni were instantly overjoyed.

"Whoosh..."

Ye Tian had no choice but to circulate his Dou Qi. In an instant, pale golden Dou Qi covered his body, forming a Dou Qi Gauze Robe.

"In just over half a year, you rose from a Six-star Dou Practitioner to a Two-Star Dou Master. Isn't your cultivation speed too fast?"

Looking at the Dou Qi Gauze Robe around Ye Tian, Old Man Gu Ni felt that he had cultivated for decades only to end up worse than a dog.

"Uncle Gu Ni, there probably hasn't been a genius like Xiao Tian anywhere on the entire Northwest Continent, right?"

"Is that even a question? Although that Xiao Yan is also quite good, he is cultivating again from the beginning. He is a whole major realm behind Xiao Tian now. Barring accidents, it will be difficult for him to catch up to Xiao Tian in the future."

Ye Tian's rate of growth had surpassed Ya Fei and Gu Ni's expectations.

"Who is Xiao Yan?" Xiao Yi Xian asked curiously.

"A genius of the Xiao Family. He became a Dou Zhe at eleven, but later something seemed to go wrong with his cultivation, and his realm fell. However, he has risen again recently."

"Besides that, there is also a girl in the Xiao Family named Xiao Xun'er. Her talent is quite high as well."

"The Xiao Family also seems to have a mysterious Alchemist who once auctioned pills at our Auction House."

Ya Fei explained from the side. Xiao Yan might be outstanding, but he was an outsider. Ye Tian, on the other hand, was the child of one of her Guards and truly one of their own.

"I never expected Wutan City to have such geniuses."

Xiao Yi Xian had once thought Ye Tian was the greatest genius around. She had only just arrived in Wutan City and had already heard of two more geniuses.

"Master Gu Ni, these are pills I refined in the Monster Mountain Range before. Take a look and see how their quality is."

At this moment, Ye Tian took out several pills from his Ring of Holding and tossed them to Old Man Gu Ni.

Thinking of the pills Xiao Yan had brought out for auction, all of which had been refined by his Teacher, Old Man Yao Chen, Ye Tian also wanted to see what price his own Top-grade Pills could fetch.

"A First-grade Injury Recovery Pill? Second-grade Qi Nourishing Powder? Second-grade Bone Regeneration Pill? Their quality is several grades higher than what this old man can refine."

"This is a Third-grade Qi Recovery Pill? Its quality is several grades higher than the pills sold at our Auction House."

"Xiao Tian, did you really refine these?"

Old Man Gu Ni held the several pills that gave off pill resonance, finding it hard to believe.

"Of course I refined them. Every one of these pills is top-grade quality."

With Ye Tian's current strength and the support of the Chaos Heavenly Flame, refining these pills was far too easy. Once cheating felt good, cheating forever felt even better.

"Xiao Tian, you're incredible."

Ya Fei was so excited at that moment that she nearly jumped up. With the help of this prodigious genius, her future life would surely soar.

"Logically speaking, ordinary flames simply cannot refine pills of such high quality. Only the legendary Heavenly Flames can."

"Xiao Tian, did you obtain a Heavenly Flame?"

"Release your flame and let this old man take a look. Don't worry, we'll keep it secret and won't report your affairs to the Mite'er Family headquarters."

As a Second Grade Alchemist, Master Gu Ni had some knowledge of alchemy. Yet Ye Tian's current changes had already left him unable to understand.

"Master Gu Ni, you're right. I did obtain a Heavenly Flame."

"Whoosh..."

Ye Tian activated the Chaos Heavenly Flame. In an instant, a golden flame appeared on his fingertip, flickering with powerful energy.

"What is this Heavenly Flame of yours called?"

Looking at the golden flame in Ye Tian's hand, Gu Ni nearly dropped his jaw. He had never imagined that the little fellow would obtain such a great opportunity in the Monster Mountain Range.

"Chaos Heavenly Flame." Ye Tian nodded.

"Chaos Heavenly Flame? Just hearing the name tells me it's incredibly powerful."

Master Gu Ni used his soul power to sense the golden flame in Ye Tian's hand. In an instant, his soul instinctively felt fear. His intuition told him that if he touched this flame, he would immediately be burned into nothingness.

"Xiao Tian, never reveal your Heavenly Flame outside in the future."

"Right! It's best to be careful in all things."

Hearing how precious Heavenly Flames were, Xiao Yi Xian and Ya Fei worried that someone might target Ye Tian.

"That's right. To Alchemists, Heavenly Flames are peerless treasures they can only dream of."

"Xiao Tian, be careful in the future. Never show it to others casually."

Although Master Gu Ni also wanted a Heavenly Flame, he knew his own limits. Ye Tian obtaining such a mysterious Heavenly Flame meant that something unknown must have happened, but he could not press for every detail lest he provoke the little fellow's displeasure.

"I know. But you don't need to worry either. No one in this world but me can absorb this Heavenly Flame."

Ye Tian's Heavenly Flame was a Child Flame separated by Senior Jin. Without her consent, no one could absorb this flame.
