Chapter 50: Unexpected Gains
Xiao Zhan handed a gold coin card to Su Yun.
"Master Han, this card contains 300,000 gold coins, as a token of our Xiao family's appreciation."
Su Yun showed a hint of surprise, appreciating the gesture.
Nodding, he accepted the gold coin card from Xiao Zhan and placed it into his system space.
"I won't be modest then."
For Su Yun at this stage, 300,000 gold coins weren't much, but for the Xiao family, it was a significant sum.
After receiving the gold coin card, Su Yun left the Xiao family. Unless something unexpected happened, he likely wouldn't appear before the Xiao family as Han Li again in the near future.
As soon as Su Yun left the Xiao residence, a charming figure appeared in front of him.
Ya Fei? Why was she here?
Su Yun was puzzled.
"Master Han."
Seeing Su Yun approach, Ya Fei hurriedly walked up to him.
"Do you need something from me?"
Su Yun remained expressionless, hard to read.
Given the influence of the Mittel Auction House, it wouldn't be difficult for them to extract information from the two families. His presence here wasn't surprising.
Ya Fei, with a smile, brushed her slightly disheveled hair behind her ear and took out a magic core from her spatial ring.
Her red-lipped mouth opened and closed as she spoke.
"Master Han, please take a look."
Handing over the magic core, Ya Fei watched Su Yun's reaction.
Su Yun, feeling the familiar power within the core, raised his eyebrows.
"A second-order Blue Eagle magic core?"
"Exactly."
Ya Fei's smile grew wider, her fiery red dress accentuating her womanly allure.
Her figure was voluptuous, evoking a sense of desire. Su Yun, even with his worldly experiences, couldn't help but acknowledge her fatal attraction to men.
Ya Fei's low-cut top offered a glimpse of her cleavage, which didn't escape Su Yun's height advantage.
"I'm not looking to join the Mittel family," Su Yun stated plainly.
Ya Fei's charming smile remained. She had found the magic core in Zhang Kaitao's residence.
Indeed, it was Zhang Kaitao's.
Just yesterday, her men found a straw hut on the outskirts of the Demon Beast Mountain. After a search, they confirmed it belonged to him.
And this Blue Eagle magic core was discovered there.
Listening to Ya Fei's explanation, Su Yun felt a bit astonished.
An unexpected bounty?
Su Yun kept his composure, only a hint of 'as expected' showing on his face.
Ya Fei observed Su Yun's reaction closely.
Her guess was right!
When she had obtained this magic core, she had already speculated. Now, seeing Su Yun's reaction, she was even more certain.
Master Han's true goal wasn't to settle a grudge but to obtain the Blue Eagle magic core.
Ironically, both the Xiao family and Ya Fei had misinterpreted Su Yun's real intentions, deviating from the truth.
Sometimes, they were too clever for their own good.
Ya Fei, certain of her conclusion, took out a sheepskin map from her spatial ring, speaking respectfully to Su Yun.
"Master Han, this is the gathering place of the Blue Eagles. We found this map in Zhang Kaitao's notes in his hut. He lost his eye during an attack by three second-order Blue Eagles."
Ya Fei detailed the content of the notes.
It turned out that the three beasts that attacked Zhang Kaitao years ago were Blue Eagles. Zhang Kaitao had accidentally entered their territory and was attacked by three of them, losing an eye in the process. Holding a grudge, he mapped out their location.
The reason for his attack on Xiao Lan was likely due to her connection to the Blue Eagle clan.
The second-order Blue Eagle magic core Su Yun now held was extracted from one of the Eagles he had killed during the attack. The other two didn't yield any cores, which was not uncommon in the Dou Qi Continent. Only higher-level beasts often contained magic cores.
Finding a magic core in one of three second-order Blue Eagles was indeed fortunate.
Su Yun took the map, his eyes flashing with excitement.
An unexpected harvest indeed.
Chapter 51: Unexpected Gains (First Update!)
Xiao Zhan handed Su Yun a gold coin card.
"Master Han, this card has three hundred thousand gold coins, as a small token of our Xiao family's appreciation."
Su Yun, slightly surprised, graciously accepted the gesture.
Nodding, he took the card from Xiao Zhan and placed it into his system space.
"I won't be modest then."
The three hundred thousand gold coins weren't much for Su Yun at this stage, but it was a substantial amount for the Xiao family.
Having accepted the gold coin card, Su Yun left the Xiao family. Unless something unforeseen happened, he wouldn't likely appear before the Xiao family as Han Li again anytime soon.
As soon as Su Yun left the Xiao residence, a seductive figure appeared before him.
Ya Fei? Why was she here?
Su Yun was somewhat puzzled.
"Master Han."
As Su Yun approached, Ya Fei quickly walked up to him.
"Do you need something from me?"
Su Yun's expression was neutral, unreadable.
Given the Mittel Auction House's influence, it wouldn't be hard for them to gather information from both families. His presence here didn't surprise him.
Ya Fei, smiling, brushed her slightly disheveled hair behind her ear and took out a magic core from her spatial ring.
Her red-lipped mouth opened and closed as she spoke.
"Master Han, please look."
She handed the magic core to Su Yun.
Su Yun took it, feeling the familiar power within the core, and raised an eyebrow.
"A second-order Blue Eagle magic core?"
"Exactly."
Ya Fei's smile broadened, her fiery red dress accentuating her feminine allure.
Her voluptuous figure was enough to stir desire in any man. Su Yun, despite his worldly experiences, had to admit she had a fatal attraction.
Su Yun composed himself and looked at Ya Fei.
"I'm leaving Wu Tan City soon. What do you want in return?"
Ya Fei was startled. Leaving already?
Ya Fei quickly organized her thoughts, considering how to maximize the benefit.
After a moment, she spoke.
"Master, I don't need any reward. I can even mobilize the resources of the Mittel Auction House to help you hunt the Blue Eagles. I just need a favor from you..."
"Heh."
A smart woman.
Su Yun chuckled, his regard for Ya Fei rising a notch.
She had managed to establish herself in Wu Tan City and control a division without being sidelined, and that was no small feat.
"Alright, I agree. But there's no need for the hunting assistance."
Su Yun told Ya Fei.
Hearing this, Ya Fei became anxious.
Why not accept the help? The more she contributed, the heavier the favor would weigh!
"Master, even though Elder Kuang Tang has left Wu Tan City, our division still has Dou Grandmasters. Blue Eagles are flying beasts. To hunt them, one must at least be a Dou King capable of flight, otherwise the more people, the better..."
Ya Fei spoke anxiously to Su Yun but suddenly stopped mid-sentence, looking up at him with a face full of astonishment.
Su Yun watched her with a meaningful smile.
"Go ahead, rationalize everything. Heh."
Ya Fei couldn't hold back anymore, gasping in shock, contributing to the greenhouse effect of the Dou Qi Continent.
Dou King!
The man before her, Master Han, was not only a four-grade pharmacist but also at least a Dou King-level powerhouse!
Ya Fei's back was soaked with cold sweat, her red top clinging tightly to her body, accentuating her curves even more.
"Heh, you're a smart woman. You know what to say and what not to."
"Ya Fei understands."
Su Yun nodded in satisfaction. He had to scare her a bit.
Otherwise, if the news got out and Luo Qian Qian found out, it would be hard to explain.
After all, at the Alchemist Guild, his revealed cultivation was only that of a Dou Master.
"Then, Ya Fei wishes Master all the best."
Su Yun nodded and left.
