Capítulo 44: Chapter 44: The Beast Controlling Method: Beast Controlling Flame Seal
Under the black robe, an aged voice chuckled softly, "I wonder if the Mittel Auction House would be interested in cooperating with me to sell this Blood Coagulation Powder? I will be responsible for refining it in the future, while you handle the sales and provide the medicinal ingredients."
"Hehe, sir, you are too courteous. To be able to collaborate with a master alchemist like yourself, the Mittel Auction House could not be more eager," Ya Fei replied with a charming smile, carefully picking up a jade bottle with her slender hand.
Taking out a piece of paper from his robe, Xiao Yan handed it to Ya Fei. The old voice spoke again, "Please prepare the herbs listed here."
Receiving the paper eagerly, Ya Fei glanced at it briefly and then agreed with a smile. After the previous incident, she dared not show the slightest hesitation this time.
However, as she looked at the fair hand extending from the black robe, a trace of surprise flickered in her beautiful eyes.
The voice sounded old, yet the alchemist had hands as clean and youthful as a teenager's. How did he maintain his skin like this?
"I don't care how you sell it, but I want what I need prepared as quickly as possible," Yao Lao's voice fell.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan's gaze passed through the black cloak and tightly focused on the enchanting and mature beauty beside him, who resembled a fox spirit.
Ya Fei's delicate face brightened slightly at Yao Lao's words. "Rest assured, sir. The Mittel Auction House will do its utmost."
She then waved over a maid, handed the list to her, and ordered the herbs to be prepared swiftly.
"For the sale of this Blood Coagulation Powder, the Mittel Auction House will provide the herbs and handle the sales. Of the profits earned, you shall receive seventy percent, and the remaining thirty percent will go to the auction house for operating expenses. How does that sound, sir?"
"Agreed." Yao Lao chuckled and nodded.
Hearing this definitive response, Ya Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With the negotiation settled, Xiao Yan took up the teacup beside him, sipped lightly, and waited quietly.
As for Ya Fei, who wore a pair of black thigh-high stockings over her long, slender legs, he tried not to look too much.
Moments later, watching the black-robed figure leave the hall, satisfied with the large pile of materials in hand, Ya Fei finally relaxed completely.
Her voluptuous and exquisite body sank powerlessly into the chair, curling up like a fox in a lazy posture, exuding a unique charm.
Leaning her head against the cold back of the chair, Ya Fei shook her head with a bitter smile. "Why is this master alchemist refining such a low-level product despite his evidently high skills?"
Beside her, Gu Ni showed a similar expression. He picked up the storage ring filled with a large quantity of Blood Coagulation Powder. "Alchemists are human too. Refining so many items this quickly naturally lowers their grade."
Ya Fei pursed her rosy lips, "I think this master must have taken on a new disciple, considering he bought both a cauldron and low-grade herbs last time, as well as a flame seed."
"You think this Blood Coagulation Powder was made by his disciple?" Gu Ni was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "That's impossible."
"Even the top alchemist of the Jia Ma Empire, Pill King Gu He, could not have refined such a quantity in one day when he first began learning alchemy, let alone ensuring every bottle was of premium quality."
"If such an alchemist exists, their talent would be nothing short of heaven-defying," Gu Ni exclaimed.
"Talent? Isn't there a genius right here in Wu Tan City?" Ya Fei pouted.
Gu Ni naturally knew whom Ya Fei was referring to. He nodded with admiration, "Young Master Xiao Yan of the Xiao Clan broke through to a Dou Zhe just a few days ago. He's only eleven years old! Such cultivation speed is rarely seen in a century in the Jia Ma Empire."
Thinking of the age gap between them, Ya Fei propped her delicate chin on her palm and sighed gently. She was still at the Dou Qi stage, after all. Comparisons are truly disheartening.
Leaving the Mittel Auction House, Xiao Yan entered a dark alley. With Yao Lao's space manipulation technique, he vanished silently from the alley.
When Xiao Yan opened his eyes again, he was standing outside the cave where he had rested earlier in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.
Yao Lao's figure floated out, "This place is too conspicuous. If you want to practice that Dou Technique, we need to find a more suitable location."
Removing the black robe draped over his body, Xiao Yan shrugged, "Can't you just take me there directly?"
"Little one, don't be ungrateful. Bringing you to the Magic Beast Mountain Range saved you a lot of effort."
Yao Lao glanced around, "This is the outer edge of the Magic Beast Mountain Range. There are too many mercenaries and magical beasts here; practicing a ground-level Dou Technique would draw too much attention."
"We need to go deeper into the mountain range. Although the magical beasts there are stronger, not many mercenaries venture that far. Moreover, strong magical beasts control large territories, so if we find a hidden place, they generally won't notice you."
"Indeed, we need to find a good spot to train," Xiao Yan nodded. He rubbed his storage ring and took out the Heavy Xuan Ruler, focusing his gaze ahead. "A magical beast is coming; it's a first-tier magical beast."
"Same rules as last time; I won't intervene unless it's a life-or-death situation," Yao Lao watched Xiao Yan silently.
While they were speaking, a giant wolf appeared in Xiao Yan's line of sight.
The wolf was fiery red, as if wrapped in flames. Its fur was smooth like silk, shining with a scorching glow.
It had a strong build, powerful limbs, and exuded a sense of wildness and strength. Its sharp eyes, full of cunning, revealed its fierce nature and intelligent mind.
"A first-tier magical beast, a Blazing Fire Wolf. Not bad for a fire-attribute magical beast. It can serve as a mount to carry me into the depths of the Magic Beast Mountain Range," Xiao Yan grinned, sizing up the wolf mischievously.
Hearing Xiao Yan's bold idea, Yao Lao warned, "Magical beasts are extremely ferocious creatures. Only a few lucky individuals can earn their friendship, and from there, their loyalty."
As Yao Lao finished speaking, Xiao Yan stomped his foot on the ground and rushed forward, "Eight Extremities Collapse!"
Having broken through to a six-star Dou Zhe and refined his body through the Burning Blood Tempering, Xiao Yan's speed had more than doubled. In an instant, he became a black shadow and landed on the back of the Blazing Fire Wolf, delivering a powerful punch.
The wolf, several times larger than Xiao Yan, didn't even have time to react. Its body sank, and its head pressed against the ground.
"Little wolf, how about becoming my mount? Follow me, and you'll have your fill of the best food and drink," Xiao Yan stroked the Blazing Fire Wolf's mane, tempting it.
Watching the snarling, furious wolf that seemed ready to devour Xiao Yan, Yao Lao found it amusing. Would this work? That would be a miracle.
Xiao Yan punched the wolf again to calm it down and then tried another approach to persuade it.
Three minutes later, Yao Lao glanced at the wolf's head, now covered with several large bumps. "One more try, and we might have to check if it still has its magic core."
"Just a bit more, one last attempt," Xiao Yan murmured, stroking the wolf's fur as his eyes sharpened slightly.
