Chapter 52: 052: Crimson Cloud Auction House (2) At the back of the mountain's pavilion... After Tai Yang pulled Yue Xuexia, Tan Bingyu followed him as they approached the pavilion and met Lin Chiyu, the house manager. Like Tan Bingyu, Lin Chiyu is a cultivator, but he is not as strong as Tan Bingyu because he was not born with the same physique as their generation. However, he is still very powerful, especially in the mortal realm where qi is scarce. He might have chosen to ignore Yue Xuexia after learning that she is just a wealthy mortal, but Lin Chiyu forgot to check about Tai Yang. Tan Bingyu called this man ahead of time, even informing him that she would be bringing her mistress with her. She asked for an esteemed welcome for their group, but who would have thought that he would treat them like this? When they reached the back mountain, a great number of hidden cultivators, most of whom were arrogant and looked down on his Xue'er, were watching over them. Tai Yang became so furious that he suppressed those who were hiding, causing some of them to fall to the ground and even eat dirt. They were completely suppressed, saying that they could only prostrate on the ground with even their faces on the ground. They were so arrogant and looked down on all mortals. So the words they had spoken about Yue Xuexia were that nice to hear, and this enraged Tai Yang. He wanted to kill them all on the spot, but the panicky reaction of Tan Bingyu made him think otherwise. After all, Yue Xuexia's scent had been greatly enhanced after becoming a divine doctor. There is no way she would not smell the scent of blood or burn them to death. Even the strongest among them, whose cultivation stage is at the late foundation, has also been suppressed. Lin Chiyu was busy playing his guqin even until the three people reached the pavilion. Tan Bingyu beat him up for such overly-guised acting. He was about to speak, but Tan Bingyu ignored him, helping her mistress take a seat in the only stone chair available in the pavilion. The house manager still did not know what had happened to his sect members. Tan Bingyu said, "Mistress, please take a seat." "Bingyu, what are you doing?" Lin Chiyu frowned when he saw her servile manners towards this mortal, but before he could say more things that could be said rudely, Tai Yang made his move. He tossed them towards the second stone chair opposite Yue Xuexia, a very powerful golden fire appearing in his hand, so calmly and without hesitation that it gave shivers to those who saw a stone chair melt into dust. Tai Yang said coldly, "Someone like you doesn't deserve to sit in my Xue'er's presence." Lin Chiyu can only hope that his sect elder will come over to save him, but the cold voice lingers near his ears. The mere fact that no one appeared after witnessing such a mystical scene meant that this man before him suppressed all men that were hiding in the vicinity. Lin Chiyu shudders at the thought. Tai Yang added, "Don't even think someone will save you. Even those old things hiding at the opposite side of this mountain couldn't even save themselves. Much less you a conceited bastard." "Sigh~ I warned you in the call. Be courteous," Tan Bingyu said. Lin Chiyu wanted to chastise the mortal girl, but for some reason, even when he tried to open his mouth, a sound came out. He can not even move his mouth. Yue Xuexia, who could somehow understand the situation while at the same time not looking at the tea set on the stone table, frowned upon smelling the fragrance of such an ordinary tea. She picked up the small tea kettle and poured out all of its contents.@@@@ As they watch, Yue Xuexia waves her palm, and a thermos filled with hot water and a cutesy tea holder materialize out of thin air. Tan Bingyu and Lin Chiyu are astounded by the scent and potent qi aura that emerge from the tea holder. Tan Bingyu's thoughts: 'Such a powerful aura of spiritual qi!? Is this tea made of a spiritual flower herb?' Using the small tongs at the side, Yue Xuexia took up a dried chamomile and put it into each of the four tea cups. After that, she filled each one with water to cause the dried spiritual flower to blossom in the water once more, and a more potent spiritual qi aroma emanated from it. She slightly turned around and asked Tai Yang and Tan Bingyu, "Do you want milk in your tea?" "No need for me. Just add a sugar cube," Tai Yang said. Tan Bingyu, whose snack preferences matched those of her mistress, nodded drowsily. Yue Xuexia took out a small pot from her tea set in her inventory and added milk and sugar cubes to Taiyang's cup, as well as to her own and Tsn Bingyu's. She then pushed the pot of milk and sugar cubes towards Lin Chiyu, signaling that he should serve himself. With a scowl, she clutched her mask and flung it at Lin Chiyu, exposing her entire fairy face to the three people in front of them. Yue Xuexia's beauty at its peak is comparable to that of a goddess in the immortal world, so in the mortal realm, her beauty alone qualifies her as a goddess. Naturally, Lin Chiyu and his old master were astounded by Yue Xuexia, staring at her in disbelief. "A fairy. A fairy in the mortal world! Much more beautiful than Princess Bingyu." "Impossible! How can there be a mortal that looks like this?! She is definitely a goddess!!" "Chi'er, apologize this instant. If this fairy doesn't forgive you, you can only enter seclusion." But these cultivators seem to want to revere her, which is scary. Yue Xuexia did not expect their enthusiastic response and immediately hid behind Taiyang. She even gestured towards Tan Bingyu to take back her mask so she could wear it again. At least the other common people would not approach her for fear of offending her. "Yangyang, you block them. Wait for me to wear my mask again," she whispered from behind Taiyang. Tan Bingyu walked towards Lin Chiyu and took her mistress's mask from him; it was her own mistress who angrily threw the mask at him. Only when Tan Bingyu passed the mask to Yue Xuexia and made her wear it was the latter willing to peek from behind Taiyang. Taiyang, on the other hand, did not respond and fully blocked Yue Xuexia behind him. He even placed a barrier to prevent these three men from approaching them closer. Yue Xuexia said, "I can cure your little disciple, but my treatment is expensive and you must provide the herbs I will need. In his case, he will need a lot of spiritual herbs as I need to make a concoction for him to bathe in. This will help him expel the poison in his body. Since this poison has been with him ever since he was born, I would most likely need to use acupuncture too. So you guys decide if you truly want to treat him. You can bully me when it comes to payment, or I will ask Yangyang and Sister Bingyu to beat you guys up!" "Xue'er, you don't look convincing while hiding behind me as you speak," Taiyang said Yue Xuexia murmured, "But their eyes are creepy~." "Don't worry, Mistress. We are here!" Tan Bingyu said while smiling. Yue Xuexia asked, "Are we still going to attend the auction? I haven't bought anything yet." "Well..." Tan Bingyu glances at the three dumbfounded men not far from them. One of the old men spoke up and said, "Don't worry, Young Miss. The auction hasn't started yet. Chi'er, escort the three of them to the highest seat. You must serve the three of them properly." "Yes, First Master," Lin Chiyu said. His Second Master added, "Your first master and I will need to talk about your treatment first. Once we make a decision, we will meet these esteemed guests again after today's auction." "Yes, Second Master," Lin Chiyu said. He saw his two old masters leave in a simple jump and disappear on the opposite side of the mountain. As for Tan Bingyu, she is pissed off but not angry. She was even worried that this stupid guy almost got killed by Taiyang on the spot just now. After escorting them personally to the number one room, they caught a lot of attention, especially Taiyang, whose presence is completely different from mortals, and Yue Xuexia, whose beauty cannot be hidden behind a half mask. Lin Chiyu bows his head towards their group and apologizes sincerely. Although Taiyang did not respond much, if at all, at least Yue Xuexia did not mind it that much. A young woman from a somewhat wealthy family in the neighborhood was among the audience members who seemed to be staring at Yue Xuexia for an unknown cause. The rich young lady mumbles, "Xiaxia?"
