After leaving Auction House No. 1, Mo Yu, guided by a maid, arrived at a fragrant room and waited quietly with his head bowed.
After a while, hurried footsteps were heard from outside, and a pretty figure pushed the door open and walked in.
"Hehe, is this the owner of the Xuan-level fighting skills auction? This must be your first time in Wutan City, sir?" A fragrant breeze wafted through, and a soft, tender chuckle sounded in Mo Yu's ears, causing his heart to tremble slightly.
Indeed, she was like a fairy. Mo Yu lowered his head in the cloak and shifted his gaze slightly to the woman in the red dress standing beside him.
The woman was Ya Fei. As soon as the auction was over, she realized that the person who had helped her was the one who commissioned the auction of the fighting skills. She had the maid take him to her office.
Mo Yu looked at the charming woman in front of him, nodded slightly, and said in the charming voice of a middle-aged man, "Is the auction successful? Please give me the money, and deduct the amount for the Mountain and River Stone."
Hearing this, Ya Fei covered her red lips with her jade hands and smiled softly. The plump curves of her chest created a thrilling arc. After laughing for a moment, Ya Fei said with a smile, "Please wait a little longer, sir. Some procedures are still being processed."
He nodded slightly, and then, as if struck by a thought, Mo Yu said to Ya Fei, "Do you have any low-level storage rings at your auction? The one I had before was broken, and I need a replacement. Also, I need second-level magic cores of the fire and lightning systems. I'll use the remaining money I have."
Mo Yu's request spent another fifteen thousand gold coins in just a few sentences.
Seeing Mo Yu's lavish spending, Ya Fei was taken aback but quickly recovered. She waved to call a maid and instructed her to gather what Mo Yu had requested.
"Sir, why did you spend three thousand gold coins on the Mountain and River Stone? Do you know its purpose?"
Ya Fei approached again and, after a slight hesitation, narrowed her beautiful eyes, asking indirectly.
Mo Yu looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. Her slender waist swayed, exuding alluring charm, and her curvy figure was so captivating that some men with poor self-control might find it overwhelming.
Especially when asking the question, he could faintly see a hint of white, which stirred his thoughts.
However, Mo Yu quickly calmed himself and replied, "Miss Yafei, your charming appearance on stage was very touching. I bought it simply to please you. Why, is three thousand gold coins a lot?"
Mo Yu naturally would not disclose the purpose of the Mountain and River Stone, so he changed the subject and deliberately expressed his admiration for the woman in front of him.
Ya Fei was momentarily stunned by his words. Considering the lavish spending she had witnessed, three thousand gold coins might be a significant sum for ordinary people but not for the mysterious man before her.
"Haha, thank you very much for your support, sir." Thinking of how the other party had come to her aid at a critical moment, Ya Fei smiled happily. "Indeed, no matter which world you're in, spending money is the fastest way to please a girl."
Seeing Ya Fei's happy expression, Mo Yu sighed inwardly.
"It seems the three thousand gold coins were not wasted if it made Miss Yafei happy." Changing the subject away from the Mountain and River Stone, Mo Yu continued to tease the mature woman in front of him with interest.
He was not the naive boy Xiao Yan. Having lived three lives, he had become adept at understanding women's psychology.
Seeing the mysterious man in front of her and hearing his charming masculine voice, Yafei was indeed in a good mood. Few women could resist a man who spent money on them. Even if no immediate feelings arose, it would increase her favorability.
After Mo Yu's deliberate conversation, a maid came in with the items, breaking the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere.
"Have the items arrived?" Although the pleasant chat had been interrupted, Mo Yu was excited about the day's gains.
"Yes." Ya Fei nodded with a smile. Reflecting on their recent conversation and jokes, she couldn't help but blush.
Ya Fei took a light blue jade card from the maid and said with a smile, "Sir, the total auction price for the Xuan-level fighting skill was 150,000 gold coins. After deducting the expenses, the remaining amount is all on this card."
She then took out a black ring and added, "Everything you requested is also in the ring. Please check it carefully."
Mo Yu reached out to take the blue jade card and the black storage ring. They felt cool and comfortable in his hands, clearly indicating their high value. He gently stroked the jade card and nodded.
Looking at her own hands, which were as white and delicate as a young boy's, Ya Fei felt an inexplicable sensation in her heart.
Using his soul force to probe into the ring, which was about three or four square meters in size, Mo Yu found tens of thousands of gold coins, a black stone the size of a head, and two magic cores—one purple and one red—stored in the corner.
They were the second-level magic cores of Earth and Fire, and Lightning!
"Good haul," Mo Yu thought with a smile.
The Mountain and River Stone could be forged into a beast ring, with a space comparable to high-level storage rings. It would be a valuable item for either storing goods or contracting a magical beast.
The two second-level magic cores were enough for him to break through to the fighter level.
Realizing this, Mo Yu felt that his trip had been worthwhile.
He then asked Ya Fei, "Do you have any third-level fire and lightning magic cores here?"
Ya Fei was surprised and shook her head, saying, "Third-level and above magic cores are only available at higher-level auctions. I'm sorry, but Wutan City does not have this specification."
Mo Yu felt a bit disappointed but nodded in understanding. After all, a third-level magical beast is comparable to a human Grand Fighter, and in Wutan City, a Grand Fighter is a top combat force. It's not surprising that third-level magic cores are rare.
This is also one of the reasons Mo Yu was eager to leave Wutan City. With his increasing strength, this small place could no longer meet his needs.
Now that the items were in hand, Mo Yu did not stay any longer. He waved casually at Ya Fei and said lightly, "I am leaving."
"Oh…"
Ya Fei felt a tinge of reluctance when she heard Mo Yu was leaving.
Mo Yu stood up and walked out of the room resolutely.
Watching Mo Yu's departing figure, Ya Fei's smile gradually faded. Thinking about the seductive tactics she had heard about, her face flushed. Leaning lazily in her chair, she couldn't help but touch..
