At that moment, a male guard walked over to inquire, his tone still very courteous.
"I need to consign two Dou Techniques for auction!"
Xiao Long spoke calmly in a weathered voice.
"May I ask what grade of Dou Techniques you wish to consign, sir?"
The guard took a deep breath to calm himself. It could not be helped—Xiao Long's voice sounded far too much like that of an old monster.
"Two Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques!"
Xiao Long's words left the guard completely stunned!
Even the three great families of Wuketan City did not possess Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques!
Yet the black-robed man before him could produce two of them. It was truly unbelievable!
"Please come inside, sir. I will immediately invite the person in charge of our Mite'er Auction House in Wuketan City to discuss this matter with you personally!"
The guard knew that such a major matter was beyond his authority, so he respectfully led Xiao Long into the auction house, attended to him properly, and then went to find Ya Fei.
After all, Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques were considered fairly high-level even in other major cities, let alone Wuketan City. Even in the Imperial Capital of the Jia Ma Empire, they were no small matter.
"Hehe, the person in charge of Wuketan City? Isn't that Ya Fei? Interesting. Looks like I should prepare myself properly. After all, she is quite a beauty!"
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Long's mouth.
Ya Fei was one of the rare beauties of the Dou Qi Continent. Now that he had encountered her, he naturally had to get close to her.
Xiao Long had already figured out how he would "get close" to Ya Fei.
Ya Fei was from the Mite'er Family. Unwilling to let the family dictate her life, she had come to Wuketan City to make her own way, hoping to render great service and become one of the Mite'er Family's upper ranks.
However, no matter how hard she worked, her fate was predetermined: she would be married to the young master of the Mu Family, one of the three great families of the Jia Ma Empire.
Later, because of Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong, her life finally underwent a tremendous change. She would no longer be controlled by the Mite'er Family.
At the end of Battle Through the Heavens, the Yan Emperor Xiao Yan ultimately kept her with three billion Gold Coins, making her his lover.
"Hmph, three billion? This time, Laozi will keep you with thirty billion!"
Xiao Long snorted coldly. He intended to crush Xiao Yan in this regard.
A thousand Gold Coins were worth only ten Exchange Points. Thirty billion would require three hundred million Exchange Points.
Uh, it seemed he had bragged a little too much...
Just as Xiao Long was deep in thought, a beautiful figure appeared before him.
The newcomer was Mite'er Ya Fei, a Nine-star Dou Practitioner!
Battle Through the Heavens had never mentioned Ya Fei's cultivation level, only stating later that she was a Dou Zong. But she was, after all, a member of the Mite'er Family, and she also had to manage the overall situation in Wuketan City. Her level could not possibly be low. A Nine-star Dou Practitioner seemed about right.
Sigh, this made Xiao Long, who had originally wanted to tease Ya Fei a little, begin to lose his nerve.
It could not be helped. A higher level could crush a person to death...
"Sir, are you the one who wishes to consign two Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques?"
Ya Fei spoke sweetly.
Ya Fei had an alluring face like that of a fox spirit. She wore a cheongsam, and her pale, slender jade legs were often exposed almost halfway up. Yet the depths of her cleavage remained forever hidden from view, leaving people regretful.
In the eyes of the people of the Dou Qi Continent, Ya Fei at this moment could be considered perfect!
But in Xiao Long's eyes, she had not yet reached the realm of perfection.
It could not be helped. She was wearing flat boots...
A cheongsam paired with flat boots... sigh, it just looked unpleasant!
"Uh, yes. This old man is indeed auctioning two Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques! Please have a look!"
Xiao Long realized that he seemed to have lost his composure and quickly corrected his attitude.
He then took out Nine Layered Waves and Carefree Steps.
Ya Fei accepted them and casually flipped through them.
"I never expected such a Dou Technique. Once cultivated to its peak, it would not be any weaker than an Earth-grade Low-level Dou Technique. Its value far exceeds that of an ordinary Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Technique!"
Ya Fei looked at the Nine Layered Waves in her hand and exclaimed in amazement.
"Oh? Not bad eyesight! That's exactly right!"
Ya Fei's words made Xiao Long suddenly understand.
Nine Layered Waves was similar to Xiao Yan's Eight Level Collapse. Once cultivated to its peak, its power far surpassed that of a Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Technique, making it an exceptionally good Dou Technique.
At the same time, Xiao Long secretly admired Ya Fei. Her eye for such things was truly sharp!
After reading Nine Layered Waves, Ya Fei continued to look through Carefree Steps. This time, she said nothing.
After all, Carefree Steps was roughly comparable to an ordinary Mysterious-tier High-grade Movement Dou Technique.
"Sir, when do you plan to auction these two Dou Techniques? If you are not in a hurry, I hope you can give our Mite'er Auction House three days. We will publicize your Dou Techniques with all our strength and guarantee that you return with a full load!"
Ya Fei suggested this because the two Mysterious-tier High-grade Dou Techniques had appeared too suddenly. If they did not promote them and attract the truly wealthy people, not only would Xiao Long, the consignor, gain little, but the auction house would also profit little. They might even offend those wealthy people, which would not be worth it.
