Disposing of a Traitor and Being Blocked

Ya Fei did not hesitate and immediately had someone summon Xiao Lu.

Before long, Xiao Lu arrived at Ya Fei's office.

However, someone was following behind her.

It was Emil, whom Xiao Yang had just met!

Ya Fei's expression darkened slightly when she saw Emil.

"Xiao Lu, have I treated you poorly?"

Xiao Lu looked at Ya Fei, and a trace of guilt flashed through her eyes.

However, after seeing Emil beside her, the guilt in her eyes quickly vanished.

"I am very sorry, Miss Ya Fei."

"You have treated me well, but Young Master Emil has treated me even better."

Emil still wore a gentle expression and said nothing.

Ya Fei looked at Emil, her eyes filled with anger.

"Good, very good!"

"Emil, are you disregarding the rules of our Mittel Auction House?"

Emil merely continued smiling.

He spoke gently.

"Miss Ya Fei, I have already resigned from my position as supervisor."

"I am no longer considered a member of the Mittel Auction House."

Although Emil's father, Valor, was a member of the Mite'er Family,

he had not joined the Mite'er Family. Instead, he had become an honored retainer of the Mite'er Family.

Therefore, after Emil resigned, he truly could no longer be considered a member of the Mittel Auction House.

Moreover, he had resigned in advance.

Even Ya Fei could do nothing to him now.

Thinking of this, Ya Fei looked at Xiao Lu, her eyes filled with fury.

"Emil resigned, so he is no longer a member of our Mittel Auction House."

"But you, Xiao Lu, are still a member of the Mittel Auction House."

"So you have now leaked confidential information regarding an important partner of our Mittel Auction House to an outsider."

"According to the rules of our Mittel Auction House, guards!"

As Ya Fei's voice rang out, two burly men immediately entered from outside.

The two men were guards of the Mittel Auction House, and both were Battlers.

"Take Xiao Lu away!"

Xiao Lu's expression immediately changed upon hearing this.

She looked at Emil beside her, her eyes filled with pleading.

"Young Master Emil!"

"Save me!"

Emil's expression remained unchanged, and he still wore a gentle smile.

He looked at Xiao Lu, his voice soft.

"Our transaction has already been completed."

"I have already given you the money."

"So we are even now."

With that, Emil left without even looking back.

Before departing, he did not forget to say to Xiao Yang,

"Mr. Xiao Yang, if you change your mind, you can come find me at the Flying Cloud Inn."

"I will be waiting for you there."

Seeing Emil's departing back, Xiao Lu's face immediately turned pale.

Ya Fei expressionlessly said to the two Battler guards,

"Take her away and deal with her according to the rules of our auction house."

"No!"

"Miss Ya Fei, Miss Ya Fei, please give me another chance!"

"I won't dare to do it again..."

Ya Fei completely ignored Xiao Lu's pleas.

She did not even spare her a glance.

Ya Fei merely turned to Xiao Yang and gave him a deep bow.

"Xiao Yang, I am sorry."

"Our Mittel Auction House will give you an explanation for this matter."

"At the same time, I will have the family help you find the Ice Soul Snow Lotus as soon as possible."

"I will also report what Emil has done to the family as soon as possible."

At this point, Ya Fei paused.

"However... with him acting like this and a Dou Ling retainer backing him, the family will probably find it difficult to deal with him."

"So at most, there may only be some compensation when the time comes."

In fact, some members of the Mite'er Family had also proposed forcing Xiao Yang to hand over the brewing method for Sun Wine.

After all, the Mite'er Family was not something Xiao Yang could compare to.

With the brewing method for Sun Wine, the Mite'er Family might be able to expand its restaurants beyond the Jia Ma Empire first.

However, Ya Fei had borne all that pressure.

Xiao Yang nodded and did not say much.

"Fine. Notify me once you find the Ice Soul Snow Lotus."

With that, Xiao Yang prepared to leave.

However, Ya Fei stopped him just then.

"Wait."

"I have found all the other medicinal ingredients besides the Ice Soul Snow Lotus during this time."

With a thought from Ya Fei, several wooden boxes and jade boxes appeared before Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang took a look, and joy appeared on his face.

These were precisely the other ingredients for the Marrow Cleansing Pill, aside from the Ice Soul Snow Lotus!

With these, he was now only missing that Ice Soul Snow Lotus!

"How much?"

Seeing these medicinal ingredients, Xiao Yang's mood improved considerably.

Ya Fei shook her head.

"Take these as part of our Mittel Auction House's apology."

"You can simply accept them."

Xiao Yang looked deeply at Ya Fei.

He did not stand on ceremony and directly stored all the medicinal ingredients in his Storage Ring.

"I will accept the apology."

"Tell me if there is any news of the Ice Soul Snow Lotus."

"I can trade a fifth-tier monster core or other medicinal ingredients for it."

Ya Fei was somewhat surprised upon hearing Xiao Yang's words.

However, she readily agreed.

After leaving the Mittel Auction House, Xiao Yang headed directly toward the Xiao Clan.

He intended to return and continue cultivating.

However, not long after leaving the Mittel Auction House, a clear laugh came from the side.

"Oh, isn't this the Xiao Clan's God of Wealth?"

"Why were you willing to leave the Xiao Clan today?"

"I heard you've been quite afraid of death lately, hiding inside the Xiao Clan like a turtle."

Xiao Yang turned his head and saw several people walking toward him.

At the center of the group was a luxuriously dressed young man surrounded like the moon among stars.

He looked seventeen or eighteen years old, with a somewhat pale complexion. One could tell at a glance that he had lived a life of luxury.

The man looked at Xiao Yang with a trace of mockery in his eyes.

"Our God of Wealth may be able to make money, but it seems his strength is not much to speak of?"

"You should be about as strong as that useless younger brother of yours, right?"

Xiao Yang had rarely gone for testing these past few years.

He no longer needed to have his cultivation tested either.

After all, even if he did not reach the seventh stage of Dou Qi by the coming-of-age ceremony, he would not be sent elsewhere.

Therefore, many people believed Xiao Yang did not dare to undergo testing because his strength was too weak.

In reality, although he had previously thought his talent was poor,

reaching the sixth stage of Dou Qi at just over thirteen years old was considered quite good in a small place like Wutan City.

However, others did not see it that way.

Xiao Yang merely gave him a faint glance before completely ignoring him and continuing forward.

The pale, handsome man immediately frowned at this.

He walked directly in front of Xiao Yang and blocked his path.

"Hey, God of Wealth, don't leave so quickly."

"I happen to be a little short on money lately. How about giving me some to spend?"

Xiao Yang looked at him as though he were looking at an idiot.

"Jialie Ao, what do you want?"

As he spoke, Xiao Yang inconspicuously took several small paper packets out of his Storage Ring.

In the distance, the guards of the Mittel Auction House saw this and hurried inside to report the matter to Ya Fei.
