As the largest business family in the Gama Empire, the Mittel family naturally has a set of strict rules.
Otherwise, anyone or any force could interfere, and the family would have been infiltrated long ago; how could it have survived for so many years?
Nie Yuan wasn't surprised at all by Ya Fei's answer, but his method was not what Ya Fei had guessed.
He chuckled softly, "How about we make a bet?"
"bet?"
Ya Fei was startled.
Nie Yuan nodded, "If I can't help you improve your status, I'll arrange an order from the Yunlan Sect, and you'll be in charge of handling it."
Cooperate with Yunlan Sect?
Upon hearing this, Ya Fei was somewhat tempted.
For such a dominant sect, even a small business deal can greatly boost its already meager performance.
"But you succeeded?"
Ya Fei was already thinking of agreeing, but out of caution, she still wanted to hear another answer from Nie Yuan.
[Ding! Ya Fei is experiencing tension and anxiety; her emotional value increases by 50.]
In Ya Fei's opinion, Nie Yuan could not possibly succeed unless he held a knife to the neck of the clan chief, Mittel Tengshan, and threatened him to give the order.
However, nothing is absolute...
She looked at Nie Yuan with some trepidation. What if he succeeded? Men, after all, can't escape lust; he probably would too…
"If I succeed, please reduce the cost of some of the medicinal herbs for me. And if there are any good items at the auction in the future, please let me know in advance."
Nie Yuan gleaned some information from Ya Fei's expression and found it somewhat amusing.
Do you think I'm after your body?
I'm sorry, but I actually had another purpose!
At this moment, only Nie Yuan can see the information.
On the newcomer's roulette, after Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun's names, a third name appeared—Ya Fei.
Collect 1000 emotion points from Ya Fei, and you will be able to spin the wheel again.
Currently, the roulette wheel still contains magical items, god-level weapons, and magical abilities.
Nie Yuan was curious about everything.
If it weren't for Ya Fei's involvement in the roulette wheel's rotation, Nie Yuan would have only exchanged a few words before quickly obtaining the medicinal herbs he needed and leaving.
"that's all?"
Ya Fei's eyes widened slightly as she stared intently at Nie Yuan's face, trying to find some clues.
However.
Nie Yuan's expression was calm, radiating composure and sincerity.
Even the way he looked at me was full of sincerity, without the possessiveness that other men have.
At this moment, Ya Fei couldn't help but doubt her own charm.
[Ding! Ya Fei is experiencing frustration; mood value +30]
"If you feel you've gotten a good deal, you can add more chips yourself after I win."
Nie Yuan smiled slightly, and then, without waiting for Ya Fei to speak, turned around and left the Mittel Auction House.
He walked down the street, his eyes filled with contemplation.
Although it's described as a "newcomer benefits roulette," there are still restrictions on how to activate it.
First it was Nalan Yanran, then Yun Yun, and now it's Consort Ya.
It seems that the requirement for this to be activated is not just that the person must be female, but rather a woman related to the protagonist Xiao Yan, or rather, a female supporting character.
If the speculation is correct, it seems that the only people in the Gama Empire who still meet the criteria are Little Fairy Doctor and Queen Medusa.
In the lobby of the Mittel Auction House, Ya Fei was still staring blankly at Nie Yuan's back when the man from before reappeared and reprimanded her.
The mighty Gun King wouldn't joke around with himself; how boring would that be?
Ya Fei stopped her suspicions and focused her attention on her work.
But the seed of hope had been planted, and she would still think of the bet and Nie Yuan's face from time to time.
...
Inside a room.
A man sat on the sofa, his face pale and hollow, his feet stacked on the coffee table.
His fingers, resting on the armrest, tapped incessantly. Finally, the door was pushed open, and a thin man walked in.
"So, have you found out who that person is? He actually tried to steal Ya Fei from me."
Reiler immediately sat up straight and asked impatiently.
The man looked somewhat flustered. "Young Master Lei, that man is the Gun King, we can't afford to offend him!"
"Gun King? What Gun King?"
Leiler was taken aback at first, his face blank. The next second, his expression froze, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. "He is Nie Yuan? The current sect leader of Yunlan Sect, the former Fiery Spear King who once had the best chance of becoming a Dou Zong?"
The thin man nodded.
Reiler fell backward, clutching his chest.
Beneath the skin, the heart is pounding rapidly.
"No wonder he's so young, yet so terrifying."
Recalling what had just happened, Leiler was almost scared to death, but thankfully he didn't act impulsively.
Otherwise, if he offends the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect, even his grandfather won't be able to protect himself.
The thought flashed through his mind, and he clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth as he said, "Damn it, how come this bitch is so lucky? She managed to meet an alchemist who makes Qi Gathering Powder in Wutan City, and not long after returning to the capital, she actually hooked up with Nie Yuan!"
...
"The flying magical beast bound for Desert City is about to depart. All passengers, please line up in an orderly manner and prepare for ticket inspection..."
In a certain area of the capital, Nie Yuan stood in the crowd, moving forward in an orderly fashion with the group.
He quickly handed over the receipt, boarded the enormous flying magical beast, and found his room.
Because the flight from the capital to Mo City was long and would take many days, Nie Yuan specially bought a private box ticket.
Although I can't afford the elixir, I still have the money for the ticket.
"Go see Hai Bodong. You can fulfill Ya Fei's bet and also get the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame Map."
Nie Yuan leaned against the backrest, stretched out his legs, and assumed a comfortable posture.
...
The sun blazed down high above the Yunlan Sect.
In the square, figures lined up in an orderly fashion, practicing their fighting skills.
Just then, a white-clad figure walked past, and many people stopped what they were doing.
Nalan Yanran kept her eyes fixed ahead without pausing, and continued until she arrived at her teacher's residence.
"Come in, Yanran."
Yunyun's voice came from inside the room.
Nalan Yanran pushed open the door and went in, sitting across from Yun Yun at the table.
"Teacher, our grandmaster has already gone down the mountain. I asked the other senior brothers, and they said that he went to the medicine hall before he left."
Nalan Yanran placed a piece of paper on the table and pushed it toward Yun Yun.
The paper had the names of several medicinal herbs written on it.
Yun Yun looked up at her disciple, her eyes questioning.
"Before my master left, he wanted these medicinal herbs."
Nalan Yanran explained.
Yun Yun frowned. "The medicinal effects of these herbs are mostly to strengthen and protect the meridians and body. Could it be that his internal injuries have become more serious?"
She paused slightly, her tone worried, "Why is he running around like this? What if something happens to him outside? Who will take care of him?"
If the teacher knew that it was he who angered Nie Yuan to leave Yunlan Mountain and cause him trouble outside, he would definitely blame himself.
"Yanran, do you know where he is? I'll go and bring him back."
Yun Yun asked.
Nalan Yanran looked at her and hesitated for a second. "After Master went down the mountain, some people from the sect saw him at the Mittel Auction House. At that time, he talked a lot with a woman in a red dress, and then they didn't see him again."
"The woman in the red dress?"
Yun Yun was taken aback, and then anger appeared on her face.
He disregarded his injuries and ran down the mountain just to see a woman?
Nalan Yanran nodded, "The other party is Ya Fei from the Mittel family."
