Background / History

Ya Fei was the chief auctioneer of the Miter Auction House in Wutan City, where her beauty and professional skill made her widely known. On the auction stage, she used charm, timing, and controlled presentation to raise bids well beyond an item's ordinary value. 27 28

She first became interested in Xiao Yan after Master Gu Ni confirmed that four high-quality second-rank pills had been supplied under his name. The prospect of a fifteen-year-old second-rank alchemist—or a powerful alchemist backing him—prompted her to invite him to a private meeting after the auction. 28 32

Ya Fei sought a stable partnership with Xiao Yan's presumed alchemist patron to build results strong enough to earn her a transfer from Wutan City to the Imperial Capital. She ultimately agreed to prioritize his pills and cease the auction house's dealings with the Galie Clan in exchange for valuable medicines, business access, and Xiao Yan's assurance that the Galie Clan would soon fall. 33 34

The partnership helped Ya Fei establish major auction successes. She auctioned Foundation-Building Elixirs and Qi-Gathering Powders at inflated prices, while Xiao Yan used the auction house to acquire ingredients, Beast Flames, and a channel for the Xiao Clan's commercial expansion. 34 50

After the Galie Clan's destruction, Ya Fei assisted Xiao Yan with liquidating its assets. Learning that he would leave Wutan City for an extended period, she initiated their relationship; Xiao Yan had detected the drug in her farewell wine but chose not to refuse her. 54 He departed the next morning after leaving her a Marrow-Washing Pill, the Fire Enchantment Art, Wrath of the Fire God, a Spirit-Gathering Necklace, and a letter asking her to wait for his return. 55

During Xiao Yan's two-year absence, Ya Fei refined the resources he left behind, reaching Five-Star Dou Master and mastering the Fire Enchantment Art. Although Hai Bo Dong offered to bring her back to the Imperial Capital, she delayed her return until Xiao Yan came back for her. 134

After returning to the Imperial Capital, Ya Fei entered the Miter Clan's succession process with Hai Bo Dong and Miter Tengshan's support. She was later introduced to Xiao Yan's family as the Miter Clan's leader and Xiao Yan's wife. 137 165

Appearance

Ya Fei is a mature, alluring woman whose public image is closely associated with elegant red dresses and an assured, seductive stage presence. Her charm becomes even more pronounced after mastering the Fire Enchantment Art. 27 134

• Often appears in flowing red gowns or a fitted red cheongsam-like auction outfit. 27 50
• Possesses a voluptuous figure and a poised, graceful bearing. 50
• Has dark, alluring eyes and a sweet, coquettish voice. 28 32
• Her perfected Fire Enchantment Art gives her movements and expressions a soul-stirring, bewitching quality. 134 138

Personality

Ya Fei is commercially shrewd, socially observant, and highly ambitious. She can transition from her practiced auctioneer's charm to dignified, serious negotiation when business requires it. Her decision to approach Xiao Yan despite the uncertainty surrounding his backer reflects her willingness to take calculated risks for a path back to the Imperial Capital. 32 33 34

Behind her professional composure, Ya Fei is emotionally direct and decisive. She initially tries to suppress her growing feelings for Xiao Yan, but ultimately chooses action rather than waiting for him to return. His parting gifts and letter convince her that she has chosen the right man. 52 54 55

She is also proactive about preserving her place in Xiao Yan's life. Rather than hiding her affection after his later reunions with Yun Yun, Cai Lin, and Little Doctor Fairy, Ya Fei openly embraces him and expresses that she missed him. 162

Abilities & Skills

Auctioneering and Commercial Negotiation

Ya Fei is a gifted auctioneer who uses her voice, bearing, and control of pacing to create bidding frenzies.

• Raises prices through carefully timed encouragement and staged scarcity. 28 30
• Sold thirty-two bottles of Foundation-Building Elixir for an average of roughly 45,000 gold coins each. 50
• Recognizes the strategic value of high-grade pills and alchemist connections. 28 34
• Used the Miter Auction House's channels to support the Xiao Clan's economic campaign against the Galie Clan. 34 37

Fire Enchantment Art

A High Earth Tier cultivation method tailored for women, given to Ya Fei by Xiao Yan. Its strength increases with the user's charm and creates a bewitching aura capable of affecting others' minds. 55

• At mastery, its allure can quietly lead opponents into illusions. 55
• Ya Fei perfected the art during Xiao Yan's absence. 134
• Her passive charm becomes potent enough to provoke intense desire even when she is not deliberately activating the technique. 138

Wrath of the Fire God

A Low Earth Tier fire-attribute palm technique left for Ya Fei by Xiao Yan. 55

• Forms a blazing palm imprint and a Fire God phantom behind the user. 55
• The phantom's presence raises the surrounding temperature and slows an enemy's Dou Qi circulation. 55
• Can suppress an opponent one rank above the user; against an equal or weaker enemy, it can briefly intimidate and disrupt their focus. 55

Cultivation Enhancement

Xiao Yan's gifts transformed Ya Fei from someone with poor natural aptitude into a cultivator with exceptional potential. 55

• Marrow-Washing Pill — A seventh-rank pill that cleansed her marrow, rebuilt her bones, and elevated her talent to the level of a peerless genius. 55 134
• Spirit-Gathering Necklace — Automatically gathers and refines ambient spiritual energy, doubling her cultivation speed without hindering combat. 55
• Emperor's Inner Scripture — Dual cultivation with Xiao Yan greatly accelerated her later advancement from Four-Star Dou Spirit to One-Star Battle King. 164 165

Relationships

• Xiao Yan — Began as a business partner seeking access to his alchemical resources; later became his lover and wife. Xiao Yan supplied her with cultivation-changing gifts, supported her rise within the Miter Clan, and introduced her to his family as their daughter-in-law. 34 55 131 165
• Gu Ni — A second-rank alchemist and Miter Auction House appraiser. His appraisal of Xiao Yan's medicines sparked Ya Fei's initial interest, and he later helped verify the quality of their transactions. 9 28 34
• Hai Bo Dong — An ally of Xiao Yan who pledged to help Ya Fei become leader of the Miter Clan; he later supported her succession upon returning to the Imperial Capital. 131 137
• Miter Tengshan — The Miter Clan's Grand Elder. He recognized Xiao Yan's value to the clan and began preparing to step back in favor of Ya Fei's leadership. 137
• Yun Yun, Cai Lin, and Little Doctor Fairy — Xiao Yan's other wives. Ya Fei openly reunites with Xiao Yan alongside them and competes to keep pace with them in cultivation. 162 165

Notable Items

• Marrow-Washing Pill — Seventh-rank pill that remade her cultivation aptitude. 55
• Spirit-Gathering Necklace — Doubles cultivation speed by gathering and filtering spiritual energy. 55
• Youth-Restoring Pill — A high-grade sixth-rank pill refined by Xiao Yan that restores the user's appearance to eighteen and adds five years to their lifespan. 139
