Chapter 104: Wu Tian's Generosity & Ya Fei's Temptation
Wu Tian was feeling helpless.
He and Gu Xun'er had planned to take the Golden Wound Pill and leave immediately. But when they arrived at the collection room, the staff informed them that their item hadn't been delivered yet.
Auction rules dictated that items couldn't be collected until the event was fully completed especially since their item was still in the hands of the chief auctioneer, Ya Fei. Or rather… in Ya Fei's chest. But of course, the staff didn't explain it that explicitly.
All they could do was ask Wu Tian and Gu Xun'er to wait until the final auctioned item had been sold.
Wu Tian was speechless.
What kind of rule was this?
This policy seemed custom made to lure potential robbers. If the auction house forced all winning bidders to leave together, wouldn't it just make it easier for thieves to follow them?
The Mittel Auction House is just as devious as Hai Bodong!
Hai Bodong: Who are you calling devious?! Can you be a little more clear with your accusations?!
Wu Tian and Gu Xun'er exchanged a bitter glance.
Since they couldn't retrieve their item yet, all they could do was wait. But returning to the auction hall was out of the question. Once they had left, there was no way they were walking back in.
Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
And so, they wandered around the auction house instead.
As they browsed, they each bought a few things they liked. Wu Tian, in particular, purchased a variety of small bottles and containers. They would definitely come in handy later, and since he had money and time to spare, why not stock up?
Just a small purchase of 1,000 gold coins.
However, even after wandering around for a while, they realized the auction still hadn't ended.
Growing impatient, Wu Tian spread his soul perception toward the auction hall.
With his spirit power at the level of a Dou Huang, there was no way anyone in Wu Tan City would notice him scanning the area.
When he discovered that the auction item was the Xuan rank technique Jade Finger Technique, he immediately thought of one person.
Kato… No, wait.
Uncle Ying.
Uncle Ying and this Jade Finger Technique are a perfect match!
And as luck would have it, Uncle Ying was actually present at the auction.
So Wu Tian decided Let's make this quick.
Rather than waste time on a prolonged bidding war, he transmitted a direct order to Uncle Ying:
"Buy it. It's yours. Consider it a reward."
Uncle Ying was so overwhelmed with excitement that he nearly burst into tears.
Never in his life had he imagined that he would one day own a Xuan rank technique.
Immediately, he swore his undying loyalty to Wu Tian, pledging to serve him to the best of his ability.
And thus, Uncle Ying became the center of attention in Wu Tan City.
Even the three major clan leaders surrounded him after the auction, eager to discuss business and investment opportunities.
But Uncle Ying turned them all down.
Instead, he went straight to the collection room, received the Jade Finger Technique, and then hurried over to Wu Tian.
With a deep bow, he presented the technique.
At that moment, the onlookers finally understood what had happened.
So Uncle Ying had a powerful benefactor all along!
Wu Tian was a true big spender.
He had casually spent 400,000 gold coins without even blinking.
And then, as if that wasn't enough…
He reached into his pocket and handed Uncle Ying a card.
"Here's 500,000 gold coins. Take care of business."
Uncle Ying's hands trembled as he accepted the card, tears welling up in his eyes.
Then, he swiftly left.
Meanwhile, the bystanders were absolutely stunned.
Did we just witness 900,000 gold coins vanish in the blink of an eye?!
Wu Tian had spent nearly a million gold coins like it was pocket change.
Just who was he?
How was he this rich?!
Even Xiao Zhan, who had been watching from a distance, had a face like a depressed donkey.
Damn it! This brat really doesn't lack money!
Buying the Golden Wound Pill was obviously intentional!
Damn it! Damn it! DAMN IT!
Xiao Zhan decided not to approach Wu Tian now he would wait until they were back at the Xiao Clan.
But just because he held back didn't mean everyone would.
Two figures approached Wu Tian quickly, bringing with them a fragrant breeze.
"Greetings, Young Master Wu~"
A soft, seductive voice whispered beside his ear.
Wu Tian didn't even need to turn around.
This little enchantress finally got her chance to meet me.
Standing beside him, Gu Xun'er watched Ya Fei approach. Her golden eyes gleamed with a subtle warning.
At such a close distance, Wu Tian once again appreciated Ya Fei's mature and alluring charm.
Her delicate face, with those long, shimmering eyes, seemed to exude temptation with every glance.
Compared to the snake women, Ya Fei's seductive aura was in no way inferior.
And unlike them, she had a human lower body.
For Wu Tian, a man who had spent so much time around snake women, this convenient feature was certainly appealing.
Of course, in comparison to Queen Medusa, Ya Fei was still lacking.
Ya Fei gave a captivating smile but, surprisingly, didn't address Wu Tian directly.
Instead, she turned to Gu Xun'er and offered a friendly smile.
"Miss Xiao, I am simply here to deliver your auctioned item. I have no other intentions. Please don't worry."
Gu Xun'er wasn't fooled.
She knew what this seductress was up to.
She wasn't a child who could be deceived so easily!
Wu Tian: Am I invisible? Hello? I'm still standing right here!
Seeing the hostility in Gu Xun'er's eyes, Ya Fei chuckled softly and covered her lips with a delicate hand.
"Young Master Wu, Miss Xiao, please wait a little longer. Some paperwork is still being processed," she said with a smile.
To avoid unnecessary conflict, Wu Tian chose not to engage with Ya Fei.
He simply gave a cold nod, his gaze indifferent.
So what if she's beautiful?
As if I haven't seen this kind of thing before.
I've seen bigger. I've seen smaller. This is nothing special…
And then
Wait a second.
Wu Tian's eyes widened.
Because right in front of him, Ya Fei extended her delicate hand
And reached into the snowy depths of her own chest.
With a smooth motion, she retrieved a small jade bottle.
For a moment, Wu Tian's brain short circuited.
Not because of the pill.
But because of the way she had retrieved it.
It had been pressed directly against her skin.
And when she pulled it out
It was still warm.
Ya Fei smiled gently, biting her lower lip as she spoke in a soft voice.
"Young Master Wu, here is your Golden Wound Pill. Please, take it."
Wu Tian: Oh? You mean I should take it… while it's still warm?
