Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 105 You're playing pretty weird.

"It's the Thunder Emperor!" A strange expression appeared on the face of a powerful figure from the Gama Empire as he looked at the bolt of lightning.

Meanwhile, the powerful figures from the other major empires and forces all wore expressions of watching a show.

Lei Suhuang was originally a Douhuang powerhouse active in the Thunder Empire, which was nearly ten thousand miles away from the Jia Ma Empire. However, it is unknown why he suddenly appeared in the Jia Ma Empire.

"However, that's not a problem. His actions will actually help him find out whether the Mittel family has a powerful figure supporting them."

They wanted to see just how terrifying this important figure's methods were.

After all, the people of the surrounding empires had only heard that a peerless expert had appeared in the capital of Gama, but they did not know just how strong this peerless expert was.

Now that Lei Yinhuang has come to investigate, they are quite happy to see it happen.

The Mittel family would be better off having a super strong expert as their backer; otherwise, these elixirs and treasures would probably have to be given away for free.

Faced with the rapidly approaching bolt of lightning, Ya Fei's pretty face paled slightly, but she remained calm.

"You're courting death!" A cold, aged snort rang out from nowhere.

The space where the lightning bolt was located suddenly froze, and the lightning bolt revealed its true form: a thin, middle-aged man wearing silver armor.

At this moment, he was filled with terror, yet he seemed frozen in place, unable to move.

The next moment, a scorching red light emanated from Lei Yinhuang's body. Anyone with discerning eyes could clearly sense the terrifying fire-attribute energy contained within that red light.

The fear on Lei Yinhuang's face turned into pain, but before he could even scream, his eyes lost their luster.

The space was no longer frozen. A gentle breeze blew from an unknown direction, turning the once arrogant Thunder Emperor's body into ashes. The breeze swept him out of the auction house.

Not a single speck of dust landed on Ya Fei.

"Gurgle."

The sound of swallowing saliva rose and fell continuously. A Douhuang powerhouse who could rank among the top figures in several major empires was turned into ashes without a sound.

They didn't even see how the other party made their move.

A terrifying chill rose from the hearts of many Dou Huang powerhouses, and they finally felt an inexplicable fear of this unknown powerhouse.

On the auction stage, Ya Fei's pretty face paled slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and her elegant smile returned.

"Please don't be alarmed, everyone. This is just a minor incident. Let's continue with the auction."

Seeing her like this, those who were initially just amazed by her beauty now unconsciously elevated this seemingly weak woman to a higher position in their hearts.

To remain so calm in the face of an attack from a Dou Huang powerhouse is truly admirable.

Inside the private room, Xiao Yan smiled with satisfaction at the scene before him.

He doesn't dislike women who love money, but he dislikes women who lose themselves for petty gains.

In fact, when faced with the temptation of wealth, both men and women are the same; the only difference is the way they acquire wealth.

Whether man or woman, after stripping away physical attributes such as appearance and wealth, what ultimately keeps people around them is an independent self.

A woman who lacks independence and self-awareness, no matter how beautiful, is soulless; such a physical appearance is easily tiresome after a few uses.

The same applies to men, except that men need to have an independent self before they can acquire status and wealth. Therefore, most self-made men are never short of female confidantes.

"Twenty-three million!"

"Twenty-five million!"

"Twenty-eight million!"

With a low thud, no one continued bidding.

"Twenty-eight million once!"

"Twenty-eight million twice!"

"Twenty-eight million three times!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Kui Lou, on obtaining the Breakthrough Pill!" Ya Fei's voice was slightly excited.

Today's auction felt like a dream, even to someone like her who is used to seeing large sums of money.

"It's terrifying that the Mittel family has such a powerful backer. It's truly frightening." After this auction, everyone in the room realized that the Mittel family was probably about to rise to prominence.

"Breaking through sect pills and imperial ultimate pills, they just took them out so easily?" In the private room, Gu He looked at this scene with a hint of awe in his eyes.

The young man who secretly supported the Mittel and Nalan families was incredibly powerful; he could casually toss out anything that was an extremely rare treasure.

Even he managed to acquire a prescription for a fifth-grade elixir and a book of alchemy insights from a seventh-grade alchemist from this auction.

These things seemed insignificant to the boy.

"Teacher, Xiao Yan is really generous. This is the third Breakthrough Pill he has, and he still has so many Grade 6 pills."

Facing her teacher, Nalan Yanran sighed without hiding her feelings, "He came to my house to break off the engagement and gave me a batch of pills. The total amount is probably no less than what's being auctioned today, and maybe even more."

That apology was, after all, an apology from a Dou Sheng. Although Nalan Yanran was unaware of it, Xiao Yan couldn't possibly withhold it.

"Yeah?"

Yun Yun forced a smile.

"Yeah, that lecherous fellow is really rich. He's willing to spend so much to seduce a mere concubine like Ya Fei." Nalan Yanran pouted.

For some reason, there was a hint of annoyance in his voice.

"Really?" Hearing that her apprentice and Ya Fei both had so many things, Yun Yun suddenly felt a slight bitterness in her heart.

"So, I'm only worth two Breakthrough Pills."

Immediately afterwards, she banished the thought from her mind.

"How could I think like that? I'm not worth two Breakthrough Pills at all." Yun Yun gave a bitter smile, but the image of that boy's wicked grin came to mind again.

"You lecherous scoundrel," she muttered under her breath.

With the conclusion of this grand auction, unseen for many years by the surrounding nations of the Monster Mountain Range, the Mittel family and even the Gama Empire have become the most talked-about countries among them.

The fact that a Dou Huang powerhouse could be so silently melted into ashes in mid-air suggests that the mysterious figure or force residing in the Jia Ma Empire must possess a Dou Zun powerhouse.

A Dou Zun expert is considered one of the strongest experts in the entire Northwest Continent.

"Guess how much all these items cost at auction?"

In the candlelit room, Ya Fei's face showed a hint of fatigue, but even more so, excitement.

"I don't know." Xiao Yan shook his head.

"That's 230 million gold coins! That's enough to buy ten Mittel families! Why don't you even show a reaction?"

Ya Fei was unusually excited, like a little girl.

"Two hundred million gold coins are not as attractive to me as you are."

Xiao Yan shook his head and smiled.

Ya Fei's face instantly flushed, and she pressed down on his hand that was on her lap.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to take a shower."

"No need to shower, just wear this outfit. You look really beautiful in it."

"Boss, you're playing pretty perverted games," Ya Fei said, blushing.
