Chapter 7 First Encounter with Consort Ya!

The Mittel family, one of the three great families of the Gama Empire, controls the empire's commercial lifeline.

The family's Mittel Auction Houses are located throughout the entire Gama Empire, making them the wealthiest family in the empire.

When Gahe stepped down from the carriage, he was somewhat surprised to see the building, which was three times larger than the Alchemist Guild, and the special insignia representing the Mittel family hanging on it.

"As expected of the wealthiest family, this auction house certainly looks luxurious!" Gahe chuckled.

As the empire's largest commercial auction house, it auctions off countless martial arts techniques, combat skills, and medicinal herbs every year.

The fact that this place attracts money also indicates a large flow of people.

Countless people of all kinds walked around, but those who could enter the grand auction house to participate in the auction were all wealthy.

In the royal family, the one thing Gah has in abundance is money!

Gah then strode toward the Mittel Grand Auction House, followed by two guards in black.

Jiahe was somewhat helpless, but there was nothing he could do. These were two peak-level Douling guards arranged by Jia Xingtian.

Although Jiahe's strength has reached the level of a Dou Wang, he usually avoids making a move.

It's funny, really. Two peak Dou Ling level cultivators protecting a Dou Wang level expert, can you handle that?

There was nothing he could do. Jiahe knew Jiaxingtian's concerns. He also needed two guards to take money or teach people a lesson, so he wouldn't have to do it himself!

As soon as you enter the auction hall, the noise outside is shut out. There are far fewer people in this vast crystal hall than outside.

Furthermore, there were also some fully armed guards patrolling the hall, all wearing the Mittel family crest on their chests, clearly their direct line of service.

Jiahe could tell that the two strongest guards in the two teams both possessed the strength of a Seven-Star Battle Spirit.

"I wonder if I can find what I need!" Gahe said, and then walked inside.

There is a trading counter here, which contains all sorts of rare items. The most common items are storage rings and magic cores, as well as some medicinal herbs. The more valuable items are pills, fighting techniques, and cultivation methods.

Gah glanced around briefly, then walked further inside.

After spending more than ten minutes, Jiahe still couldn't find what he needed. He did see a piece of Xuan Iron, but it wasn't even extraterrestrial meteorite iron. At most, it could withstand the use of low-level Xuan-rank combat techniques!

Soon, Gah set his sights on the stairwell where the Mittel family's senior members were located.

"Why don't we just go and ask the higher-ups in the Mittel family?" Gahe thought to himself.

Having made his decision, Gahe led his guards toward the stairwell.

Upon reaching the stairs, Gahe was stopped by the Mittel family guards: "This is a place for family members; outsiders are not allowed to enter!"

A guard beside Gahe stepped forward and produced a token. Upon seeing it, the Mittel family guard's expression immediately changed, and he clasped his hands in a salute, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Get up. I have some questions to ask the higher-ups in your Mittel family. May I go upstairs?" Gahe nodded slightly and then asked.

The guards exchanged a somewhat embarrassed glance, then said, "Alright, but please allow us to inform them!"

Gah didn't make things difficult for the guards, nodding and saying, "Alright, go ahead!"

The guards breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't afford to offend the royal family, so they could only rush upstairs to report.

At this moment, in an office on the top floor of the grand auction house, facing the street, sat a charming woman in a red cheongsam.

The woman stretched gently, revealing her alluring curves. She got up somewhat lazily, her fair feet in high-heeled sandals moving slightly as she walked to the window and looked down at the surging crowd below.

"Huh? A royal carriage?" The woman covered her red lips slightly, looking somewhat surprised.

"Why would members of the royal family come to the Mittel Grand Auction House? It seems like the family doesn't have any plans to open a high-level auction house recently," the woman murmured softly.

However, the woman immediately said, "Never mind, I might as well go out and get some fresh air!"

The woman then swayed out of the office, preparing to head downstairs.

Just then, the guard downstairs rushed up and, upon seeing the woman, exclaimed with delight, "Miss Ya Fei, what a pleasure to meet you! People from the Gama royal family have arrived, saying they are looking for someone from their family and seem to have something to ask."

Ya Fei was somewhat taken aback; she had run into this as soon as she came out.

Consort Ya looked at the guards and said, "Don't rush, let me ask you first, are these two princesses from the royal family?"

The guard shook his head and said, "I don't recognize him. It's a young man with two guards, but the guards are carrying a royal token!"

Consort Ya frowned slightly, realizing the situation: "It seems to be a member of the royal family. As for the young man, I wonder which young master he is!"

Upon realizing he was a member of the royal family, Consort Ya lost interest, lest she get herself into trouble. She had had enough of being annoyed by that Mu family brat these past few days!

"Then go find Elder Olin. He's here today as the oversight elder!" Ya Fei said, preparing to turn and leave.

Just then, an elderly man in a brocade robe walked out from the large office next door. Upon seeing Ya Fei, he said directly, "Ya Fei, the Mu family has some important matters to discuss. Since you know Mu Zhan of the Mu family, why don't you come with me?"

Upon hearing this, Ya Fei's pretty face immediately changed, and she quickly said, "Elder Oulin, what bad luck! A distinguished guest downstairs has specifically requested that I entertain him, and I must go down immediately, so I cannot accompany you to the Mu family!"

After saying that, Ya Fei didn't give Elder Oulin a chance to react at all. She walked downstairs and dragged the guard away with her!

Elder Olin asked with some doubt, "A VIP? She just arrived at the Grand Auction House, where would she get to know a VIP? Oh well, never mind, she can go alone!"

Although puzzled, Elder Orin didn't think much of it and went alone.

Downstairs, Jiahe soon heard a series of clattering footsteps, but the sound was more like the sound of high heels hitting the ground.

The next moment, a charming figure in a red cheongsam appeared in Gahe's line of sight.

The guards who went upstairs to report earlier were also following behind, so they must be high-ranking members of the Mittel family!

"This outfit looks vaguely familiar," Gahe thought to himself.

When Ya Fei came downstairs and saw Jia He, her beautiful eyes lit up immediately. "What a handsome young man!"

"Are you looking for that member of the royal family who's a high-ranking member of the Mittel family?" Ya Fei quickly straightened her clothes and expression, then slowly walked up to Gahe and chuckled sweetly.

Gah nodded slightly and said, "Not bad!"

Ya Fei said, "Please come with me to the VIP room next door. Let's talk in detail!"

Jiahe followed Yafei toward the VIP room.

After being seated in the VIP room, Ya Fei looked at Jia He and introduced herself, "Hello sir, my name is Ya Fei, and I am the steward of the Mittel family. May I ask your name and what you need?"

"Ya Fei?" Jiahe asked, somewhat surprised.

Ya Fei noticed Jia He's surprise and asked, "Does the gentleman know me?"

Gahe snapped out of his reverie, nodded, and said, "I've heard of you. Just call me Gahe!"

Ya Fei was somewhat surprised, as she rarely appeared at the Grand Auction House and hadn't expected that the young man in front of her would recognize her.

Fortunately, the boy's gaze was very clear, which made her feel much more comfortable.

Unlike Mu Zhan from the Mu family, who looked at him as if he wanted to devour him alive.

After composing herself, Ya Fei smiled again and said, "That's truly an honor to be remembered by Mr. Gahe. If you need anything, please let me know. If the Mittel family's warehouse has anything you require, I can get it for you anytime!"

Upon hearing this, Gahe nodded slightly and said, "I need a piece of iron that can be forged into a sword, the hardest kind of iron!"

"The hardest iron?" Ya Fei was somewhat taken aback, then fell into deep thought.

Gah wasn't in a hurry. He picked up the tea beside him and took a small sip.

Not long after, Ya Fei looked at Jia He and said, "I do remember having a few pieces of meteorite iron in the family storeroom. They're not bad, but I don't know if they meet your requirements, sir. Shall I have someone bring them over for you to see?"

Gah nodded and said, "Okay, thank you!"

Ya Fei chuckled and said, "It's no trouble at all; serving our guests is the right thing to do!"

Then Ya Fei turned and walked towards the door, leading people to the storeroom to search for those pieces of meteorite iron.

About ten minutes later, Consort Ya returned with several maids.

Ya Fei lifted the red cloth from the trays carried by the maids and introduced them, "These pieces are all extraterrestrial meteorite iron treasured by the Mittel family. They are extremely hard and cannot be corroded by ordinary fire. Take a look!"

Jiahe got up and went to the pieces of meteorite iron. He picked up one of the pieces, circulated his battle qi, and rushed it towards the meteorite iron. With a bang, the meteorite iron suddenly shattered.

"This can be called meteorite iron?" Gahe frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.

Ya Fei stared wide-eyed. This was a meteorite worth 60,000 gold coins, yet it was broken in the hands of this young man?

"What level of strength does this young man possess to have crushed the meteorite iron?" Ya Fei wondered to herself.

The remaining pieces of meteorite were all of similar hardness, so Gahe didn't examine them further. He turned to Yafei and asked, "Besides these, are there any others?"

Ya Fei glanced at Jia He with some difficulty, and was about to say no when a thought flashed through her mind and she remembered a strange 'stone' in the storeroom!

"There are no more meteorite irons left in the family storeroom, but there is still a huge, hard object that looks like a stone, but also like iron. We can't be sure!" Ya Fei said to Jia He.

Gah said, "Bring it here so I can see it!"

Consort Ya waved for the maids to leave, then personally went to the storeroom to retrieve the stone-like object.

When Gahe saw this thing, his gaze narrowed slightly. It was about the size of two adult fists, with a dark green color, and it was heavier than ordinary stones.

Aside from these, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about it.

However, when Gahe obtained the 'stone', his fighting spirit surged out from his palm, but to his surprise, the 'stone' remained completely still!
