"I, Lei Le, have been in the Mittel Family for so many years, and I have never heard of any honorary elder named Hai Bodong!" Lei Le said to Xiao Yu with a mocking expression.

Xiao Yu frowned slightly, as if he had heard the name somewhere before. It must be a minor character from the original work. How could he possibly remember everyone in the original story?

"How do you know there isn't such an elder in your Elder Council?" Xiao Yu asked Lei Le.

Lei Le said arrogantly, "My grandfather is Elder Lei Ou of the Mittel Family. He has some power in the Elder Council. Do you think I don't know that?"

Then, Lei Le pointed to the guards beside him and said, "Forget it, forget it, why bother talking to a country bumpkin like you? It's bad luck. You lot, throw him out!"

Hearing Lei Le's words, Xiao Yu asked with a strange expression, "Is Lei Ou your grandfather? Is your grandfather Ultraman?"

Xiao Yu's words startled Lei Le. "What Ultraman?"

"It's nothing!" Xiao Yu shook his head and said calmly, "Even if I'm not here to find someone, can't I come to the Mittel Auction House to auction things? Is this how you run your business at the Mittel Auction House?"

"Hahaha! That's hilarious! What are you, a country bumpkin, auctioning off? I'm in a bad mood today, get out of here!" Lei Le waved his hand, and the surrounding guards began to swarm around him.

Xiao Yu reluctantly took out the alchemist's robe from his Storage Ring and put it on. He had previously thought that being Third-grade Alchemist was too ostentatious, but now it seemed that the alchemist's robe might help him avoid being harassed by those nobodies.

When Xiao Yu put on the alchemist's robes, which were unique to alchemists, Lei Le's eyes widened slightly.

"A third- Third-grade Alchemist? You, this is impossible! How old are you? How could such a genius be unknown in the entire Imperial Capital?" Lei Le roared in disbelief.

Xiao Yu casually dusted off his slightly wrinkled sleeves and said, "What, is there someone who can impersonate an alchemist?"

Seeing Xiao Yu's calm and collected face, Lei Le was instantly enraged. He pointed at Xiao Yu with a ferocious expression and ordered the guards, "You, throw this imposter alchemist out!"

However, given Xiao Yu's status Third-grade Alchemist, these guards dared not act rashly. Otherwise, Lei Le might be fine, but they would be in serious trouble!

Seeing that no one moved, Lei Le roared, "Are you all deaf? I'm telling you to go up and take him down!"

"Stop!" A cold shout came from the second-floor staircase.

The crowd watching the commotion in the hall followed the sound and saw a graceful figure in red slowly descending the stairs. Looking down, they could see a pair of red boots, which made a series of crisp and melodious sounds as they landed on the ground, like a string of beautiful musical notes. Moving their gaze slightly upward, they saw a pair of long, slender, and snow-white legs.

The men in the hall stared intently at the red figure. Xiao Yu's gaze, tinged with admiration, gradually moved upwards, finally settling on a captivatingly beautiful face. He paused slightly, muttering softly, "I didn't expect to run into her again!"

The woman in the red brocade robe was none other than Ya Fei from the Mittel Auction House in Wu Tan City. However, the last time they met was almost three years ago. It was said that she had been transferred back to the Imperial Capital and left without saying goodbye.

"What are you looking at?" A sinister voice came from behind Ya Fei.

Xiao Yu looked over and saw Mu Zhan, whom he had met at the door earlier. At this moment, his cold eyes swept over the people around him. He regarded Ya Fei as his own, so naturally he would not allow these people's eyes to fall on Ya Fei.

The guards standing behind Mu Zhan immediately drove away the people around them, which displeased everyone, but they dared not speak out due to the power of the Mu Family.

However, Ya Fei felt a sense of disgust towards Mu Zhan's domineering behavior. Although she was uncomfortable, she didn't show it on her face. She simply said to Mu Zhan, "These people are guests of the Mittel Auction House. This isn't the Mu Family. Don't go too far!"

Hearing Ya Fei's words, Mu Zhan's fierce eyes softened slightly, and he laughed loudly at Ya Fei, "Haha, who in the entire Imperial Capital doesn't know that Ya Fei is my betrothed wife!"

"You... you're a madman!" Upon hearing Mu Zhan's words, Ya Fei's pretty face flushed with anger as she shouted in a low voice.

Mu Zhan clearly didn't take Ya Fei's words seriously. Ya Fei had no choice but to turn around and look at Lei Le. Her enchanting peach blossom eyes held a trace of lingering anger, and she seemed to feel some disgust when she saw Lei Le. However, when she looked at the boy standing in front of Lei Le, her gaze suddenly froze.

Ya Fei stared blankly at Xiao Yu, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of disbelief. When she saw Xiao Yu with his arms crossed and a gentle smile on his face, she finally believed that he was the young man from the Xiao Clan who had secretly come to the auction house to sell medicine.

Ya Fei's gaze quickly caught Mu Zhan's attention. He looked at the handsome young man in front of him, carefully searching his memory for information about him, but he couldn't find anything. However, he was extremely displeased with the way Ya Fei looked at the young man.

Ya Fei stepped forward, gesturing for the surrounding guards to disperse. Standing before Xiao Yu, she smiled and said, "It's been years! I almost didn't recognize you. You've grown taller than me now!"

Xiao Yu gently inhaled the faint fragrance emanating from the beautiful woman before him and teased with a smile, "Sister Ya Fei hasn't changed, but she's become even more charming and alluring. It seems there are quite a few people in the Imperial Capital who are jealous of Sister Ya Fei!"

As Xiao Yu spoke, his gaze swept over Lei Le and Mu Zhan, clearly indicating that this "many people" included the two in front of him!

Ya Fei glared at Xiao Yu with her beautiful eyes and said coquettishly, "Why is it that after all these years, you're teasing your sister the first thing we do when we meet?"

Seeing Ya Fei chatting and laughing with Xiao Yu, Mu Zhan's eyes darkened, his face filled with murderous intent, and emerald green Dou Qi surged from his body as he clenched his fist and slammed it fiercely towards Xiao Yu!

A fierce burst of energy swept past Ya Fei, causing a sharp pain in her delicate cheek. Seeing Mu Zhan's attack, Ya Fei's expression changed drastically, and she quickly warned Xiao Yu, "Xiao Yu, be careful Mu Zhan is Nine-star Dou Shi!"

Without warning, the pale red Dou Qi within Xiao Yu's body suddenly surged out, and his palm, glowing with red battle Dou Qi, easily caught the fist that Mu Zhan was swinging.

Boom!

A muffled thud was heard, and a powerful burst of energy shot out from the point where the two fists and palms collided, causing the heavy display cases around them to sway instantly in the force of the blow.

Mu Zhan's expression suddenly changed. He could feel his power vanish without a trace, as if it had disappeared into the sea. He looked at Xiao Yu's still calm face with a look of fear in his eyes.

Xiao Yu chuckled lightly and said, "Young man, where does such anger come from?" As he spoke, his internal Dou Qi surged, and a tremendous force of recoil emanated from Xiao Yu's palm.

Bang!

Click!

A sharp cracking sound came from his right hand in an instant. The immense force sent Mu Zhan staggering back several steps before the impact slowly dissipated. The ensuing excruciating pain turned Mu Zhan's face deathly pale, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

The sudden scene before her eyes instantly turned Ya Fei's anxious expression into one of astonishment!
