"A Fifth-Order Magical Beast!!!"
Yun Yun's pretty face changed instantly when she sensed the aura of a Fifth-Order Magical Beast suddenly erupting from the place they had just left.
"Yan'er is in danger!"
Seeing Yun Yun about to return, Ge Ye hurriedly stopped her.
"Sect Mistress, Yan'er and the others are fine. You don't need to worry."
"Fine?"
Yun Yun asked in astonishment.
"A Fifth-Order Magical Beast has already gone after them, and you're saying they're fine?"
"Sect Mistress, please remain calm."
Ge Ye hurriedly explained.
"Sect Mistress, aside from Yan'er, who's a little monster herself, the other two girls, Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Xun'er, are no ordinary people either!"
"They're not ordinary either?"
Yun Yun was deeply surprised.
"Ah..."
Ge Ye sighed.
"Sect Mistress, Xiao Yi Xian may look like a little fairy, but she's exceptionally skilled with poison!"
"She was only at the Dou Qi stage before, yet the poison she used was enough to make even me wary!"
"As for Xiao Xun'er..."
At the mention of Xiao Xun'er, Ge Ye's old face had turned frighteningly pale.
"She... she has a Dou Huang Expert serving as her guard!"
"I sensed that person's aura. It was even stronger than yours!"
"That Fifth-Order Magical Beast may have been summoned by Xiao Xun'er. Even if it wasn't, it's nothing to worry about."
"Ah?"
After Ge Ye's shocking words, Yun Yun's lips were already hanging open in utter disbelief.
Someone at the Dou Qi stage could make a Da Dou Shi wary!
A Dou Huang Expert served as a guard?
Where had all these little monsters come from?
Why were the girlfriends little Yan'er had found for her daddy all so terrifying?
Was her eye for people really that sharp?
No!
At that thought, Yun Yun glanced at her beloved disciple, Nalan Yanran, beside her.
Nalan Yanran: (⊙o⊙)?
Teacher, what do you mean by that?
I'm not good enough?
"Ah..."
Ignoring Nalan Yanran's expression, Yun Yun smiled bitterly.
Sure enough... she had no advantage at all!
Compared to them, a "Dou Huang Expert" like herself was really nothing special.
"Let's go back."
Before the words had even faded, Yun Yun's figure had once again flown toward the horizon.
"She left without waiting for us again..."
Ge Ye looked at Yun Yun's retreating figure, his old face full of bitterness.
"Uncle Ge Ye, do you think I still have a chance?"
At that moment, Nalan Yanran's voice reached Ge Ye's ears.
Ge Ye: "Uh..."
Seeing Ge Ye hesitate, Nalan Yanran's gaze became resolute.
"Alright, I understand. I'll enter seclusion as soon as I get back!"
Seclusion!!!
"Yanran, could it be that you intend to..."
Watching the Young Sect Master fly away as well, Ge Ye gave a bitter smile and shook his head.
"Ah... They only came out for one trip, yet both the Sect Mistress and the Young Sect Master have ended up feeling inferior!"
Jia Ma Empire, Wu Tan City.
"What? You're saying they still haven't been found?"
Xiao Zhan sat in the Xiao Family Hall and slammed his palm onto the table as he shouted.
Steward Mo's body trembled violently below him.
"Clan Head, I've sent out every member of the clan to search, but there's still no trace of Miss Xun Er or that little girl Yan'er!"
"Bastard!"
Xiao Zhan's face went pale with rage upon hearing this.
"If they can't find Xun Er, then they shouldn't come back either!"
"Yes!"
Steward Mo respectfully bowed and hurriedly withdrew.
"Ah..."
Seeing Xiao Zhan's furious expression, the three Elders of the Xiao Clan could only sigh helplessly.
"Clan Head, Xun Er is of utmost importance to the Xiao Clan. Nothing must happen to her!"
"How about... you stay behind to guard the clan while the three of us lead people to search for her ourselves?"
"That will do."
Hearing the Great Elder's words, Xiao Zhan nodded.
"Then I'll have to trouble the three Eld—"
"Clan Head! Clan Head!"
Just then, Steward Mo, who had only just left, rushed back inside.
"Miss Xun Er and the little girl called Yan'er have returned!"
"Excellent!"
Xiao Zhan was overjoyed and hurriedly rose to his feet.
"Three Elders, quickly come with me to greet them!"
"Uh..."
Seeing how excited Xiao Zhan was, Steward Mo seemed hesitant to speak.
"What? Is there something else?"
Xiao Zhan frowned and asked.
Steward Mo froze for a moment before saying, "Clan Head, Miss Xun Er and that little girl were invited away by people from the Mittel Auction House as soon as they appeared outside the city."
"What? They went to the Mittel Auction House?"
Xiao Zhan and the three Elders exchanged looks, all of them shocked.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan could not help but sigh.
"Miss Ya Fei certainly moves fast."
The Great Elder nodded in agreement and said solemnly, "Clan Head, you should know Ya Fei best. She's quite extraordinary!"
"We must learn her purpose in inviting Xun Er and the others over at the first opportunity."
As soon as those words were spoken, Xiao Zhan's face darkened.
What did he mean, I know Ya Fei best?
Did they have to bring up that little matter of mine?
"The Great Elder is right. I'll head to the Mittel Auction House at once to visit Miss Ya Fei!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhan's figure had already darted out of the hall!
The three Elders: (⊙o⊙)!!!
He seemed... rather anxious?
Xiao Zhan's heart pounded faster.
How could I not be anxious?
That little girl was far too strange. She had even managed to talk the Yun Lan Sect Young Sect Master into willingly becoming her mother. And now Ya Fei...
At that thought, Xiao Zhan quickened his pace.
His Five Star Great Dou Shi strength suddenly erupted, and he transformed into a streak of green light as he raced toward the Mittel Auction House.
"Hm? What a coincidence, Clan Head Xiao Zhan!"
Xiao Zhan had just taken to the rooftops when someone on the street below greeted him.
It was none other than Jia Liebi, who had rushed over after catching wind of the news.
Xiao Zhan looked at Jia Liebi and sneered.
"Heh, Clan Head Gale, your news travels quickly too."
"Not as quickly as Clan Head Ao Bapa's!"
As he spoke, Jia Liebi pointed ahead at Ao Bapa, who was sprinting madly in the distance.
"..."
The two exchanged a look, then hurriedly used Flash to appear behind Ao Bapa.
Ao Bapa looked at them and snapped, "Why are you two in such a hurry? Does the Mittel Auction House have your mothers or fathers inside?"
"What's it to you?"
Jia Liebi retorted irritably.
Xiao Zhan remained silent.
When the two were confronting each other, Xiao Zhan's Five Star Great Dou Shi strength suddenly erupted. His figure shot forward and directly overtook them.
"Damn it, Xiao Zhan! You ambushed us!"
The two immediately hurried after him!
The Mittel Auction House was the largest auction venue in Wu Tan City.
It also belonged to the Mite'er Family, one of the Jia Ma Empire's three great families.
Within the Jia Ma Empire, the Mite'er Family stood unrivaled in wealth. Even the Royal Family was slightly inferior.
At this moment.
Qi Yan'er and Xiao Xun'er had already stepped inside the Auction House.
"It's so cool in here~"
Because the weather outside was unbearably hot, Qi Yan'er could not help but praise it the moment she entered.
"Little Sister Yan'er, ice- and water-attribute magical core devices have been placed throughout the area beneath the Mittel Auction House. That's why it's so refreshing here."
A crisp, alluring female voice came from Qi Yan'er's front-left.
This woman was none other than the Mittel Auction House's chief auctioneer and the person in charge here, Mite'er Ya Fei!
