Chapter 131 - 135: A Stunned Ya Fei"My sincerest apologies. As you know, obtaining a sixth-tier Magic Core requires slaying a sixth-tier Magic Beast. And such beasts are comparable to Dou Huang experts. Given the current turmoil in the Jia Ma Empire, it's nearly impossible to find one." A trace of apology appeared on Ya Fei's charming and seductive face. She had indeed tried her best to gather information. But sixth-tier Magic Cores were rare treasures — most people treated them like prized possessions. Even if someone had one, they wouldn't release it into the market. Chen Mo frowned slightly. The only materials he lacked for refining the Golden Body were three sixth-tier Magic Cores. There were no elemental restrictions — he simply needed three cores of that tier. Seeing his frown, Ya Fei grew anxious. If she had caused his displeasure and this led to the cancellation of future cooperation... She might as well cry herself to death. Hurriedly, she said, "But don't worry, Chen Mo. Just give me a little more time. I will give you a satisfactory answer." "It's fine. You don't need to apologize. Asking you to search for sixth-tier Magic Cores was admittedly a bit too much." Seeing her nervous expression, Chen Mo smiled and added: "How about this — help me investigate if there are any sixth-tier Magic Beasts apart from the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the Magical Beast Mountain Range." [Ding! Favorability +1. Gained 1 Favorability Coin.] "Whew..." Ya Fei let out a sigh of relief. His understanding warmed her heart, increasing her goodwill toward him. She nodded quickly. "No problem. But... Chen Mo, why are you asking about sixth-tier Magic Beasts? Don't tell me you plan to...?" Sixth-tier Magic Beasts were as strong as human Dou Huang experts — and generally stronger due to their raw physical power. "Of course I plan to hunt one," Chen Mo nodded without hiding his intent. Ya Fei's eyes widened with shock, her naturally seductive gaze now filled with disbelief. "Will that person be making a move?" Ya Fei was well aware that Queen Medusa might be standing behind Chen Mo. If she acted, taking down a few sixth-tier beasts would be easy. Chen Mo smiled and shook his head. "No. I'll do it myself." That stunned Ya Fei. Her beautiful eyes opened wide, her face filled with disbelief. "Are you serious?" Though she couldn't see through Chen Mo's strength, she couldn't believe that, at just nineteen years old — and a Tier 3 Alchemist no less — he could also be a Dou Huang. After all, achieving such accomplishments in alchemy at such a young age left little time for cultivation. Let alone reaching the Dou Huang realm. "I'm absolutely serious," Chen Mo said, taking a sip of tea. Gulp. Ya Fei swallowed hard, still in shock. "You're seriously a Dou Huang?" "No." Chen Mo shook his head. Whew. Ya Fei breathed out. For a moment, she'd really thought he was a monster. But Chen Mo's next words nearly knocked her to the floor. "I'm not a Dou Huang, true. But I never said... I lack the strength to match one." In the original novel, Ya Fei deeply admired the strong — so Chen Mo didn't bother pretending. "Then... you're a Dou Wang?" she asked, trying to make sense of it. A nineteen-year-old Dou Wang was already shocking, but it wasn't entirely impossible. After all, Dou Wang experts had occasionally defeated Dou Huangs. Chen Mo shook his head again. "No. Just a Dou Ling." Thud. Had she not been bracing herself against the chair, Ya Fei really might have collapsed on the spot. A Dou Ling... intending to kill a Dou Huang? That wasn't just ridiculous — it was outright insane. The gap between those two realms was massive. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. If he could really kill a Dou Huang as a Dou Ling, wouldn't that be even more monstrous than becoming a Dou Huang at nineteen? Because if he could defeat a Dou Huang now, then once he became one himself... wouldn't even a Dou Zong fall beneath him? "Chen Mo, stop joking. My poor heart can't take this," Ya Fei cried, hastily picking up the teacup from the table and downing a large gulp to calm herself. "Oh..." "What is it?" "That tea... I drank from it earlier," Chen Mo said with a sly smile, his eyes narrowing. "Mm—!" Ya Fei's cheeks flushed red. She nearly spat the tea out. Hurriedly, she set the cup down, fumbling in her storage ring to retrieve a handkerchief to wipe the tea that had dribbled from her lips. Her face burned — this was the second time she'd lost her composure in front of him. "S-Sorry about that. I drank your tea. I'll pour you a fresh cup." She quickly moved to fetch a new teacup. "No need. I have something to take care of. I'll be going now." Chen Mo stood and strode confidently toward the door. "I'll see you out," Ya Fei said, running to his side to escort him personally. When they reached the entrance of the auction house, Chen Mo glanced sideways with a grin. "If you don't believe me, I can take you to see for yourself next time." Chen Mo wasn't one for false modesty. He figured showing off a little in front of Ya Fei would earn him quite a bit of favor. Plus, it would be out in the wilderness... Who knows? Maybe they'd camp out. Camping. Caves. A man and a woman. You get it? Now that he thought about it, the idea had real potential. Three Days Later. Chen Mo delivered a freshly refined batch of Qi Gathering Powder to the auction house for Ya Fei to sell. He took the opportunity to gain another three points of favorability from her. Seeing that he had really refined Qi Gathering Powder — even though both she and Gu Ni had already guessed he was a Tier 4 Alchemist — they were still visibly shocked. A nineteen-year-old Tier 4 Alchemist? That was just too outrageous. This also strengthened Ya Fei's determination to win Chen Mo over. [Ding! Favorability +2. Gained 2 Favorability Coins.] With a radiant smile, Ya Fei said, "I'll have the auction house promote it for two days before the sale. That way, the profit you earn will be even higher." "Very well. I'll leave it to you," Chen Mo nodded. Tagor Desert. The silver moon hung high in the sky. Within the Snake-People's royal palace— The bedroom was brightly lit. Die sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the black robe that had already been sewn. Curling up on the bed, she couldn't hold back a soft sob. Tears streamed down like rain. The sadness struck without warning. She didn't even know why she was crying. Even after nearly half a month, the pain wouldn't go away. Her sister's betrayal... Chen Mo's departure... she'd lost two things that had meant everything to her. She tried not to hate her sister. After all, her sister was the most important person in her life. But when she thought about the one who had cared for her so much, who had helped her without asking for anything in return, who had even risked his life to protect her... And now, he'd been taken by her sister. Her heart ached like a knife twisting inside. The despair rising from deep within her made it hard to even think straight. She said she didn't hate them, but that wasn't true. And Chen Mo... that damn liar. How could you... How could you end up with my sister?
