Chapter 118: Hai Lao is going crazy, but he is not in a good mood
"Emi, that's not right. I've been practicing privately for a long time! You can't just learn by watching!"
Xiao Yuan ignored the young man who was frozen into an ice sculpture, and said to Hai Bodong with a smile.
Hearing this, Hai Bodong opened his mouth to speak, but remained silent.
I am speechless, it is so depressing!
It took him more than half a month to research this new fighting skill, which used a method similar to the ice mirror to freeze people inside it. After Xiao Yuan saw it once, he secretly copied it.
Along the way, Hai Bodong rarely saw Xiao Yuan practicing fighting skills.
In other words, Xiao Yuan may have practiced, but he didn't put in much effort.
Although this was not the first time he had witnessed Xiao Yuan's extraordinary talent, he still felt extremely uncomfortable about it.
When he witnessed Xiao Yuan's talent, he deeply realized that there is a gap between geniuses!
But then, a sharp voice, filled with a strong sense of fear, rang out.
"A great fighting master?"
Since Xiao Yuan had revealed his fighting spirit, the guard looked at Xiao Yuan's handsome and young face and thought of the purple gold card in his hand. He immediately understood that the young man favored by Miss Ya Fei was definitely a talented young master of a powerful force. Even the elders of the Mitel family would have to show some respect to such a person. He was not someone they and their masters could afford to offend!
"Well, take that eyesore and leave here. I don't really want to kill him for now. I hope he has enough brains and doesn't cause me any more trouble!"
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan waved his hand nonchalantly, signaling the guards to leave.
"Thank you, Master, for showing mercy!"
Hearing this, the guard was obviously relieved. He then did not take the stairs and simply led the others to climb over the railing and jump down, clearing the way to go upstairs.
"Tsk, this guard is pretty good."
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows and said to Ya Fei with a smile.
At this moment, there was a hint of surprise and unexpectedness in Yafei's beautiful eyes.
"Are you a master fighter?"
She spoke in surprise.
"Hehe, I'm lucky. I got some opportunities."
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded when he heard this.
"I thought you were still at the Fighting Master level since you came to see me so early. I didn't expect your cultivation speed to be even faster. It's really incredible!"
Hearing this, Ya Fei chuckled as she walked away. The charm she revealed unintentionally made Xiao Yuan quite enjoyable.
"Haha, I said that when I come to see you, I will become a great fighting master, and I will naturally do it."
Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded.
As they were talking, the three of them came to Yafei's office and sat down.
The chairs at the Mittel family headquarters are all very exquisite. After sitting on them, one will feel much more relaxed all over.
These seemingly inadvertent details reveal the terrifying family background of the Mittel family.
"But, I think it would be better if we discuss this matter some other time. Because when that guy goes back, he will definitely complain to his grandfather. At that time, that extremely protective old man will definitely come to trouble you."
Ya Fei skillfully poured a cup of hot tea for Xiao Yuan and Hai Bodong. After hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but speak.
"Haha, if that kid still doesn't know what's good for him, even if Tengshan is here today, he can't protect them!"
Before Xiao Yuan could say anything, Hai Bodong on the side sneered and said.
The Mo family's previous experience was right in front of him. After witnessing the two terrifying geniuses, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yan, Hai Bodong was able to guess some of the problems the family was facing now after seeing the arrogant and stupid young man in the family just now.
After all, Mittel Tengshan is just a Dou Wang, and his control over the family is definitely not as good as that of the Ice Emperor.
Besides, without his protection, the Mittel family could not afford to lose the family elder easily.
Although it was somewhat inappropriate for this old man to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys as soon as he came back, if the elders in the family were really so stupid, it would be better for him to die.
After all, if another Dou Huang had come here today, this incident would probably be enough to bring a huge disaster to the Mittel family.
It could even be a catastrophic disaster!
Therefore, I must take this opportunity to teach some idiots in the family a lesson!
Ya Fei was stunned when she heard this. She had noticed that Hai Bodong was extraordinary before, and Xiao Yuan also said that he was a real strong man, but she didn't know the specific situation. Now it seems that this old man might be a Dou Wang strong man!
However, from the old man's words, it seemed that he had a very good relationship with Great Elder Tengshan, and he looked quite familiar. Could he be a friend of the Great Elder?
A trace of solemnity flashed through her heart, and at the same time, Ya Fei also showed a bright smile on her face: "It seems that these herbs were found by Xiao Yuan for this old gentleman, right? Let me see what kind of herbs they are?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan handed Ya Fei the prescription for Fu Zi Ling Dan written by Xiao Yan.
"Hmm? This handwriting is from your brother Xiao Yan, right? These medicinal herbs are not ordinary. Some of them, even I have only heard of their names. You two brothers are really more mysterious than each other!"
When Ya Fei saw the slightly familiar handwriting, she also asked with a smile.
"Yes, it is indeed the prescription written by Xiao Yan." Xiao Yuan said with a smile, "Can we find all these herbs here?"
Hearing this, Hai Bodong on the side also stared at Ya Fei who was in deep thought. This was a major matter that could determine whether his realm could be further improved!
Holding her chin with her jade hand, Ya Fei pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's probably very difficult to gather them all. After all, these medicinal herbs are too precious. If they are put on the market, almost every kind will be auctioned at a high price of at least 200,000, and there is still no market for them..."
As soon as Ya Fei said this, Hai Bodong suddenly wilted, and his disappointment was visibly revealed. However, Xiao Yuan, who was standing aside, knew that Ya Fei must have something else to say, so he was not in a hurry and waited calmly for what to say next.
"It is indeed difficult to collect them all, but I think there should be no problem in getting half of the herbs above." Ya Fei pondered.
"Half is fine. It's better than leaving with nothing."
Xiao Yuan nodded and smiled.
Hearing this, a playful smile suddenly appeared on Ya Fei's pretty face, and she said with a smile:
"According to my memory, our Miter Auction House should be able to produce the above four medicinal herbs. The price of each of them is more than 250,000. The total amount required for these four medicinal herbs is probably around 1 million gold coins. Brother Xiao Yuan... I remember that you don't seem to have that much money in your card!"
"How about my dear sister Yafei give me some more money?"
Xiao Yuan shook his head and responded with a smile.
After these words came out, the smile on Ya Fei's pretty face became even more intense. She crossed her slender green jade fingers and said with some regret: "Brother Xiao Yuan, but if this happens, all my saved dowry will be lost!"
"Haha, it's okay, just pay me back, Hai Lao will pay you back double, right?"
Xiao Yuan smiled and turned to look at Hai Bodong beside him and said, "Okay, okay, stop talking, stop talking, you've been annoying me for a long time, and now you're targeting me!"
Hai Bodong couldn't stand the two little guys singing the same tune, so he waved his hand impatiently, then took out an extremely exquisite purple gold card, threw it on the table casually, and said:
"Little girl, hurry up and get me the herbs. It's just a million yuan. I won't cheat you two. As for the dowry, it's too early to talk about it. If I remember correctly, this guy hasn't called off the marriage yet!"
Hai Bodong's tone became a little teasing when he finished speaking.
Xiao Yuan did talk to Hai Bodong privately about Nalan Yanran's affairs.
"Haha, the old gentleman is indeed of extraordinary status. It seems that I don't have to worry about the previous things!"
Looking at the purple-gold card with seven silver ripples on the surface on the table, a cunning look flashed across Ya Fei's cheek. She often dealt with countless powerful people, so she naturally knew very well that this kind of purple-gold card must be used by at least Dou Wang level strength. It seems that his judgment of this old man is relatively accurate!
And it seems that this old man has a very good relationship with Xiao Yuan, and even I feel a little bit favored by him because of this.
Carefully picking up the purple gold card, Yafei stroked it slowly with her jade hand. The special texture allowed her to quickly distinguish the authenticity. She then lightly clapped her hands, and a pretty maid hurried in from outside the door.
"Go pack these four medicinal herbs properly and bring them here. Be quick!"
Handing the maid a piece of paper with the words of four medicinal herbs written on it, Ya Fei gave the instructions solemnly.
"Yes."
The maid responded respectfully and then quickly retreated.
"Old sir, please wait a moment, the herbs will be brought over right away."
Looking at the maid who was leaving, Ya Fei said respectfully to Hai Bodong.
"Don't be so polite, just treat me as an ordinary old man. You are a good girl."
Hai Bodong nodded with a smile and was quite satisfied with Yafei.
Whether it was Ya Fei's way of doing things or the fact that she objectively won over the terrifying genius Xiao Yuan, it was enough for Hai Bodong to show enough favor to her.
"Haha, don't worry, Hai Lao is indeed one of our own family members."
Since Hai Bodong was giving him such face, Xiao Yuan was naturally not an ignorant person, so he immediately said with a smile.
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Ya Fei's eyes. Xiao Yuan's meaning obviously meant that this old man Hai was a family member, whether to Xiao Yuan, to her, or to the Mittel family.
The identity of Mr. Hai Lao
Could it be!
It was not until this moment that Yafei suddenly remembered some of the information she had previously investigated.
"So it's Mr. Hai. I was blind and didn't recognize you before!"
Ya Fei quickly smiled apologetically and said respectfully.
"That's one of the reasons why I didn't want to reveal my identity in the first place."
Seeing this scene, Hai Bodong shook his head helplessly, then waved his hand to signal Yafei to relax.
"Please take back this purple gold card, Mr. Hai. Without Mr. Hai, there would be no Miter family today. Yafei cannot accept your money."
Upon seeing this, Ya Fei handed the purple gold card back and said solemnly.
"alright."
Seeing the determination on Ya Fei's face, Hai Bodong nodded helplessly, and then threw the purple gold card back into the ring. After a pause, he said, "Tell me, who is that kid and his backer? They haven't been back for so many years, and it seems that there are a lot of parasites in the family."
"Yeah, that guy from before."
Upon hearing this, Yafei nodded slightly, like a granddaughter being questioned by her grandfather, and immediately answered Hai Bodong's questions one by one.
"Hehe, are the people in the Elders' Pavilion so unruly? Tengshan, this useless guy, is really disappointing. Don't reveal my identity for now. I want to see what the elders of the Mittel family look like now!"
Hai Bodong couldn't help but sneer after hearing this. He immediately realized that the matter of the medicinal materials would not go smoothly, and gave instructions to Yafei.
"Well, it's all up to Hai Lao's arrangement."
Ya Fei nodded when she heard that, and then looked at Xiao Yuan, who was smiling, and her eyes became much softer.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuan actually found this ancestor in the clan. In this way, in this family, when it comes to background, I am afraid no one can compare with me.
It will be more convenient to do things in the future!
Speaking of which, Xiao Yuan is really my lucky star. Every time he comes, he can bring me great help!
When Hai Bodong saw the two people looking at each other with jealous eyes, he curled his lips and turned his head away silently, no longer looking at the two annoying little guys.
Fortunately, not long after, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded, attracting the attention of the three people.
"Where are the medicinal materials?"
Hearing the hurried footsteps, Ya Fei raised her head and looked at the maid with empty hands. She thought that it was just as Hai Lao had expected. Then she frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.
"Ms. Yafei, the herbs...herbs were forcibly taken away by Elder Leo. He said that these herbs had already been reserved by someone and could not be transferred to others."
The maid whispered timidly with a look of panic on her face.
"Snapped!"
Hearing this, Ya Fei's pretty face suddenly darkened. She slammed her jade hands heavily on the table and gritted her teeth as she said, "This old fellow, these herbs have been in the warehouse for more than a few months. How come I have never heard that they have been reserved by someone?"
"Hehe, Hai Lao, you are so good at predicting things!"
Xiao Yuan finally found an opportunity and teased back.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. I disappeared for so many years and came back to kill a few people impulsively. It's just the right time to resign and make room for this little girl."
Hai Bodong smiled when he heard this, but his tone was extremely cold in the first half, while the second half had a bit more teasing meaning, which made Xiao Yuan and Ya Fei shake their heads helplessly.
This old man is really amazing. He doesn't suffer any loss at all!
Then, an old and arrogant voice broke into the ears of the three people:
"Humph! Ya Fei, you are just an acting elder, but you have such great power that you dare to cause others to hurt my grandson. When the next Senate meeting begins, I will solemnly ask the other elders to remove you from your position!"
Hearing this, the three people in the room all smiled strangely.
