"They just left." Ya Fei sighed.
"I was planning to treat you all to a meal, but I didn't expect Qian Renxue to leave so hastily. Now even Mingzhu has been chased away by you." She smiled as she said this.
"Well, there's no way around it, Yijie, you'll have to make it up to me. Don't leave today."
Upon hearing this, Li Yijie couldn't help but glance at Sister Yafei's figure, making her blush. "What, Sister Yafei, do you also want to experience your brother's strength?"
Upon hearing this, Ya Fei laughed heartily, her slender branches adorned with large fruit, highlighting her sister's sexy and alluring figure. She gently tapped the boy's forehead with her finger.
What's the rush? Everyone in the group, without exception, will suffer the consequences of his younger brother's actions.
"As for me, I'm just struggling a little, hoping to get some luck before the next draw." There's no way around it; many people in the group have already participated in the draws, and most have had pretty good luck.
Of all the items she possessed, the most useful were the immensely powerful Xuanzhong Ruler and the Demon Collar. Who would believe there wasn't something fishy going on?
Ever since that heroic rescue, Ya Fei knew she was probably smitten, but businessmen are inherently driven by the desire to maximize profits. Li Yijie expressed his understanding of this.
"Okay, I'd also like to see how time flows over there if I spend a whole day in this world."
"But Sister Yafei, I know your personality very well. I'm afraid you're keeping me here for more than just a meal, right?" Upon hearing the words "time flow," a knowing glint flashed in Yafei's eyes.
"Yijie, you've really worked hard. You've figured out most of the rules in the group." She nodded with a smile.
"That's right, the person who invited my brother to dinner this time wasn't me, but the Xiao family."
"If we follow the timeline, today should be the day when the Xiao family's genius has had his Dou Qi absorbed for three years and has been detected as having the third level of Dou Qi." So that's when it's time.
The phrase "Battle Qi, Three Stages" still echoes in Ji Yijie's ears, but...
Seeing Li Yijie's thoughtful expression, Yafei added with a wry smile.
"Of course, this is just the original timeline." "In fact, Xiao Yan in this world is already dead." What!
Upon hearing this, Li Yijie was completely stunned.
What do you mean there's no Xiao Yan in the Dou Qi World? How can the plot develop then? "What's going on here?"
Ya Fei, with a deep and quiet gaze, looked towards the Xiao family's position and sighed softly.
"Half a month ago, my younger brother told me about the specific direction of the Dou Qi Continent. From that day on, I went to Qingshan Town and won over Little Fairy Doctor, a potential star."
"But as the main character, how can I not pay attention?"
"So, I entrusted someone to convey the goodwill of the Tel family to the Xiao family, in order to ease the situation of the Xiao family in Wutancheng and to establish a good relationship." At this point, Ya Fei's expression became solemn.
"However, during our conversation with the Xiao family, we discovered that the family head, Xiao Zhan, only had two sons, who were still training in the Northern Desert Mercenary Group. Their names were Xiao Ding and Xiao Li."
"As for the third son, Xiao Yan, he died while still in his mother's womb." Upon hearing this, Li Yijie's mouth dropped open.
The protagonist died before he was even born, is that even acceptable?
"Did it die naturally?" Ya Fei shook her head.
"It is said that many years ago, Wutan City was also attacked by the orcs, and it was at that time that Madam Xiao Zhan was killed by the orcs."
The chosen one of this world was killed in the womb before he could even show his skills? What a cruel joke!
"Now I understand somewhat why the system missions showed rule anomalies. The orcs are definitely the problem." Li Yijie sighed, expressing his regret for the Flame Emperor who died before successfully reincarnating.
But that was all; after all, he had never seen her before. He turned his head and stared intently at Ya Fei.
"So, Sister Yafei wants to see if she can find the old medicine master?"
That's normal. Xiao Yan himself is dead. Who knows if Yao Lao will come to Wutan City as promised?
"If a butterfly's wings were to flutter, it might just unleash a tsunami or a raging storm," Ya Fei said with a faint smile.
"No, what my sister means is that she wants my brother's help to see who is lucky enough to receive the old master's favor."
"After all, there is a Medicine King in the Black Corner Region, and his name is Han Feng." Yes, since Han Feng is in the Black Corner Region, it means that he has already completed the act of killing his master.
Therefore, it's highly likely that Yao Lao entered the ring, just like in the original story. And across the entire Dou Qi Continent, where is Yao Lao most likely hiding?
In other words, if Yao Lao wasn't in the Xiao family, he would most likely have indirectly died because of Xiao Yan's demise.
Given this, Ya Fei naturally developed the idea of winning over the virtuous Medicine Master. A treasure for repairing the soul?
She's been to the Tel family quite a few times!
To be honest, Li Yijie was really curious to know if Yao Lao would arrive as promised during such a special time. So, he agreed.
At noon, the battle qi test of the Xiao family in Wutan City was held as scheduled. Xiao Zhan sat in the head seat, his expression indescribably grim.
Clearly, time has not erased his longing for his wife and children.
Every night, he would hear the echoes of the deceased in his dreams.
Just then, a cold expression of concern softened Xiao Zhan's expression slightly.
"Uncle Xiao, if you're not feeling well, you can go and rest for a while. The guests will be here in a bit." "It's said that Miss Mittel will be coming in person this time."
The girl who spoke wore a light blue dress with delicate silver patterns on the hem, and moved as lightly as a butterfly. Her long, black hair was tied into a neat high ponytail, and the ends of her hair swayed lightly with her movements, making her neck appear slender and long.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her oval face was set with bright eyes that seemed to shimmer with light. She had the charm of a young girl, but also an elegant and aloof air that was beyond her years. Her upright posture exuded a refined and otherworldly temperament.
Of course, this ethereal young woman was ultimately a little out of place with her temperament.
That was it. She kept weighing and playing with a simple, black ring in her hand.
Chapter 61 What?! The old man with the ring is a fake?!
"Hehe, so it's Xun'er."
Xiao Zhan turned his head and greeted him in a slightly friendly manner.
"How have you been doing at the Xiao family lately? Have any of your relatives bullied you? If so, you must tell your uncle." Xun'er's lips curled into a gentle smile.
"Except for the second young master of Sister Yu's family, who is a bit noisy and naughty, the others are fine."
"Don't worry, Uncle Xiao." That's good, that's good.
Their conversation was brief; after exchanging a few words of greeting, they went about their own business.
As the clan leader, Xiao Zhan not only had to pay attention to the order of the Dou Qi test, but was also responsible for receiving the invited guests.
As the top young expert in the Xiao family, Xun'er is destined to make a name for herself in this test. Even before the test has begun, the number of guests who have arrived is already almost overwhelming.
Just then, a shout came from outside. "Miss Yafei has arrived at the Mittel Auction House!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan's face lit up with joy, and he quickly ran over to greet him.
"Miss Yafei, welcome to observe the battle qi test held by the Xiao family. You've come all this way, would you like to go to the guest room to rest first?"
As he spoke, he noticed a man standing beside Ya Fei and asked with some confusion, "And who is this gentleman?"
"He is my man, hehe. As for resting in the guest room, there's no need. I came here to see what promising young talents our Wutan City has to offer."
Ya Fei naturally took Li Yijie's arm and replied with a charming smile.
Chief Xiao, please trouble you to prepare an extra set of table and chairs; I can use that. "Ah, this..."
Xiao Zhan and the three elders who were there to greet them were taken aback for a moment, but then agreed. It was just adding a set of tables and chairs; it was no big deal.
They were simply shocked that Miss Yafei of the Mittel Auction House had a man.
The Xiao family acted swiftly, quickly arranging the two for the most prominent VIP seats. Seeing Xiao Zhan still trying to find topics to talk about, Ya Fei smiled and said...
"Clan Chief Xiao, today is the day for your Xiao family's battle qi test. It would be better not to spend too much time on an outsider like me." Originally, Ya Fei was quite used to this kind of lighthearted conversation among high-ranking members.
This is because it demonstrates one's skill and increases one's value within the Mittel family.
But with "power" as her foundation, she became somewhat averse to these social interactions, longing only to be alone with her lover. Xiao Zhan, a seasoned and shrewd man, could easily see through her.
"Hehe, Miss Yafei is right. I'll get back to work now." With that, he hurriedly left, afraid of upsetting the couple.
Soon, the other party went to the banquet of the Jia Lie family and the Ao Ba family, and became sworn brothers with the two patriarchs. This made Li Yijie's eyes fill with a strange look.
When did the three major families in Wutan City become so close?
Ya Fei is special in Wutan City, but she can't possibly influence the core interests of the three major families. At this moment, Ya Fei explained from the side.
"Because the Gama Empire was frequently invaded by orcs, the royal family issued a special decree that stipulated that family feuds between cities must be..."
The solution lies with controlling the younger generation; a life-or-death struggle is unacceptable.
"Utan City, having suffered greatly from orc attacks, is more united than other cities." Well, to put it bluntly, it's all about orcs again.
Li Yijie had a headache; he felt the Dou Qi world had gone completely awry. The chosen one of the plane, Xiao Yantian, had perished, and the three-year agreement had been aborted.
Yunshan, the former sect leader of Yunlan Sect, Medusa Queen of the Snake-People Clan, and Jia Xingtian, the retired emperor of the Jia Ma Royal Family, three top-level Dou Huang experts, signed a peace treaty to jointly resist the attack of the Beastmen Clan.
To secure this agreement, the Gama Empire even issued a decree allowing intermarriage with the snake-people. The most ridiculous part is…
Yafei just told him some gossip, and it turned out to be a big scoop.
That is Xiao Zhan's second son, Xiao Li, who is preparing to marry a snake-woman. As a result, the Mo Tie Mercenary Group has now become a combination of half-human and half-snake-woman.
Of course, that snake-woman was a genuine half-human, half-snake pureblood!
All I can say is that Xiao Yanzi's second brother is quite the player; he inherited his brother's business. "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"
Li Yijie clapped his hands, then refused to mention the plot again. What's the difference between this ridiculously twisted world and the TV series?
Ya Fei was so happy she couldn't straighten up, seemingly enjoying seeing her younger brother's predicament. After a while, the Xiao family's battle qi test officially began.
Xiao Ning was the first to step forward. Due to the pressure from external enemies, his fighting spirit was one level higher than in the original story. "Xiao Ning, Fighting Spirit Eighth Level!"
Then several ordinary tribesmen came up, mostly at the third or fourth level.
Then there's Xiao Mei, whom even Ji Yijie finds a bit intimidating... This pure and innocent girl's fighting spirit is the same as in the original work, at level seven.
Li Yijie guessed that it might be because without the guidance of Xiao Yan, a fallen master, the influence was neutralized. The most shocking case here is Xun'er.
Because... unlike the nine-stage Dou Qi in the original work, Xun'er's cultivation level here has actually reached the three-star Dou Zhe level.
This left everyone present stunned, including Xiao Zhan. He rubbed his eyes and sighed with a wry smile.
"Xun'er is such a pleasant surprise. She's already a three-star fighter at such a young age."
On the stage, Gu Xun'er looked indifferently at the battle qi testing stone, not thinking that her cultivation level was anything special. She simply demonstrated it briefly, then weighed the ring in her hand and walked off the stage, exuding an aloof and unapproachable air.
People passing by made way for this little genius, and Xiao Ning, the number one sycophant of the Xiao family, was even happier than if he had passed his exam.
Unfortunately, Xun'er doesn't have much affection for the Xiao family now. All she wants is to find an opportunity to save the Xiao family from their predicament, and then take the Emperor Jade and return to the Ancient Realm.
"pancreatic?"
Just then, Gu Xun'er sensed someone watching her and immediately looked up. Looking at that incredibly handsome face and ethereal air, her cheeks flushed slightly.
This boy... he's kind of handsome, damn it!
Gu Xun'er gritted her teeth inwardly.
I am the little princess of an ancient clan, how could I possibly fall for someone just because of their appearance!
But he's a really good teacher.
After some thought, Xiao Xun'er successfully developed an interest in that man. His location was very close to that of Ya Fei of the Mittel family. She decided to have Elder Ling investigate.
There's nothing in this world that Gu Xun'er can't get if she wants it!
Meanwhile, Li Yijie finally found Yao Lao's whereabouts, and his expression turned strange.
Unexpectedly, after Xiao Yan's death, it was Gu Xun'er who obtained that ring. What a coincidence!
But why did he feel something was wrong? Just then, Ya Fei's exclamation came from the side.
"Yi Jie, I've got a new mission. This old medicine man... turns out to be a fake!"
