Holding a Family Meeting
Seeing that both sides were pretending to smile and talking, each harboring their own ulterior motives, Ya Fei sighed helplessly. Fortunately, the matter was temporarily over.
"Does Your Excellency have a place to stay? If you don't mind, you may stay in Mittel for the time being."
After a brief exchange, a shrewd, businessman-like glint flashed in Mittel Tengshan's eyes as he smiled and asked Xiao Tian.
"Good."
Xiao Tian was unsure of the deeper meaning behind Mittel Tengshan's actions, nor did he know what Hai Bo Dong had told him. However, confident in his own strength, he pondered for a moment before agreeing without hesitation.
"Ya Fei, you are now in charge of arranging His Xiao Tian's accommodations. Do not neglect this task."
Seeing that Xiao Tian agreed, Mittel Tengshan gave Ya Fei a simple instruction.
"Yes, Grand Elder."
Ya Fei accepted Mittel Tengshan's instructions.
"Brother Xiao Tian, let me take you to arrange your accommodations first. Elder Binghuang, please take care of your medicinal herbs."
"It's alright, I'll take care of Hai Lao's things. You just need to take care of Lord Xiao Tian's matters."
Mittel Tengshan interrupted Ya Fei directly.
Upon hearing this, Ya Fei pulled Xiao Tian away from the dilapidated study.
Just then, a Jade Bottle flew directly from Xiao Tian's hand towards Niteten Teng Shan.
Mittel Tengshan caught the Jade Bottle, opened the cap, poured out its contents, examined them carefully, and then exclaimed in disbelief.
"This is Sixth Grade Pill, the Dou Ling Pill?"
"That's right, it is indeed Dou Ling Pill, and a perfect Dou Ling Pill at that."
This Dou Ling Pill was the reward Xiao Tian received for checking in earlier. Xiao Tian hasn't taken it yet because he just made a major breakthrough in his cultivation level, and it's not suitable for him to take it in the short term.
The two looked at Xiao Tian's receding figure with complicated expressions.
This pill was given to him after Ya Fei took Xiao Tian away, meaning that it was compensation for Ya Fei Ya Fei, rather than because of killing Lei Le Lei Ou.
"Younger Brother Xiao Tian, what exactly is your strength now?"
On the way, Ya Fei linked arms with Xiao Tian and asked with a sweet smile.
"He's just a mere Dou Wang."
Xiao Tian felt the softness of his arm against his skin and said with a smile.
"A mere Dou Wang?" Ya Fei stopped in her tracks, her mouth agape, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Dou Wang is a top-tier existence in the Jia Ma Empire, capable of establishing their own sect. Among the Ten Great Experts of the Jia Ma Empire, only the first few are Dou Emperor, and the rest are just Dou Wang.
Even the Grand Elder of his own family was only Dou Wang.
"Then you, a mere Dou Wang, are nothing but a lowly one. I, a mere Dou Zhe, will need your 'mere' Dou Wang's careful guidance."
Ya Fei lightly patted Xiao Tian's arm, her charming eyes flashing a captivating wink at Xiao Tian.
Although Xiao Tian is already Dou Wang, his Younger Brother Xiao Tian is still the same Younger Brother Xiao Tian he knew before.
"It's not impossible, but I'm not one to suffer losses; you have to offer me something in return."
Xiao Tian looked at Ya Fei with a wicked smile and said meaningfully.
The two chatted incessantly, sharing various interesting stories from the past year.
Finally, Ya Fei stopped in front of a courtyard.
"Younger Brother Xiao Tian, this is the courtyard arranged for you. Let's go in and take a look."
The entire courtyard was magnificent, paved with bluestone, and the houses were built with an unknown type of wood. The roofs were also decorated with a lot of glazed tiles, highlighting its luxury.
Upon entering the room, Xiao Tian looked around. Inside, there were many valuable-looking decorations and all sorts of other items.
"Elder Ya Fei, the family is holding a family meeting, and the Grand Elder requests your attendance."
Just then, a maid's voice came from outside the door.
Upon hearing this, Ya Fei looked at Xiao Tian with a questioning look in her eyes.
"Go ahead, I need to go out later too."
Xiao Tian Xiao Tian smiled and nodded; he had a rough idea of what the meeting was about.
"I'll head over now, and I'll show you around the Gama Holy City later."
Ya Fei glanced at Xiao Tian with gentle charm and said with a smile.
After watching Ya Fei leave, Xiao Tian waved his hand and appeared in the Free and Unfettered World. Sensing that both of them were still in Secluded Cultivation and that Xiao Yi Xian was at a crucial juncture in her breakthrough, Xiao Tian appeared in Qing Lin's training room and directly took out the Nine-Headed Serpent Soul.
"Qing Lin, this is the soul of a snake. I'll implant it into your Pupil Space. Refine it to enhance your strength."
Xiao Tian directly implanted the Nine-Headed Serpent Soul into the Qing Lin Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils space, entrusting it to Qing Lin for control and refinement.
Qing Lin didn't have time to think much and hurriedly began to refine the essence using her cultivation technique and the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils.
Seeing that Qing Lin was alright, Xiao Tian reappeared in the room at the Mittel Auction House.
Xiao Tian jumped onto the roof and flew towards the north of Gama Holy City.
Just after Xiao Tian left, in the Waiting Room of Mittel Headquarters.
The room was filled with the Elder and key members of the Mittel Family, as well as outstanding young talents.
Many of the elderly men with gray hair sat tremblingly in their chairs, looking respectfully at the old man in the head seat.
"Hai Lao, everyone has arrived." Mittel Tengshan was below the head elder, respectfully addressed the elder.
Other key members and younger members who were unaware of Hai Bo Dong's identity watched the stern Grand Elder display such a respectful expression, and they kept wondering what the head elder's true identity was.
"Teng Shan, you will continue to manage the Mittel Family as before. I will not interfere too much in my current capacity."
Hai Bo Dong realized that he had already joined Xiao Tian's Free and Unfettered Hall and was now a member of the Free and Unfettered Hall. At most, Xiao Tian would only protect him out of consideration for their past relationship. Unless Mittel merged into the Free and Unfettered Hall, it would only displease Xiao Tian.
Hai Lao his teacup, gazing at the water inside, lost in thought. He still felt a deep affection for Mittel, Mittel was now at the very top, with no possibility of reaching the next level.
If we want to grow bigger and stronger, there is only one way, but this way may not be successful.
"The main purpose of this meeting is to announce two things. First, Elder Lei Ou has already been disciplined according to Clan Rules for offending Hai Lao, and this matter cannot be discussed further."
The Grand Elder, Mittel Tengshan, seeing that Hai Bo Dong remained silent, looked around and then spoke in a detached tone.
Upon hearing this news, the entire hall fell into complete silence, but everyone chose to keep their mouths shut, not daring to utter a word, or even breathe loudly. Only Hai Bo Dong, seated at the head of the table, quietly sipped his tea.
Although there had been a struggle at the Auction House before the news was received, it now seems that Lei Ou is gone, judging from Mittel Tengshan's indifferent tone and calm expression.
Everyone knows that this is the most terrifying aspect of the Grand Elder. Now, anyone who dares to speak out and be the first to act will be instantly stripped of their power.
"Ya Fei."
Mittel Tengshan looked at Ya Fei, who was sitting upright to the side, and smiled gently.
