As everyone knew, the protagonist would never go somewhere without treasures. Seeing Lin Ruo go inside, Chu Feng suddenly felt tempted. Maybe he really could get his hands on a few valuable items.
And how could one tell whether something was a treasure?
Very simple: just buy whatever the protagonist bought, and you’d never go wrong.
The little girl pulled out another flyer and handed it to Bai Yuyan, saying,
“Big Sister, would you like to come too? Since you’re Big Brother’s Dao companion, if you go in together, the admission fee can be waived.”
At first, Bai Yuyan hadn’t been very interested in this. In her eyes, the only thing that mattered was her Junior Brother.
But the moment the little girl spoke, Bai Yuyan instantly caught two words that delighted her.
“Little Sister, what did you just say?” Bai Yuyan asked with a bright smile.
“Big Sister, you’re Big Brother’s Dao companion…”
The little girl repeated her words, but before she could finish, Bai Yuyan reached out her fair hand and gently patted the little girl’s head.
“Little Sister, you have a very good eye. Here, these spirit stones are for you.”
Hearing the little girl’s words filled Bai Yuyan’s heart with joy, and she directly pulled out ten spirit stones.
“Really?! Thank you, Big Sister! I wish you and Big Brother eternal happiness, loving each other forever, never to be separated!”
The little girl’s face lit up with joy the moment she saw the spirit stones, and she spoke her blessing cheerfully.
This made Bai Yuyan like the little girl even more. In the end, she even took out a full hundred spirit stones and stuffed them into the girl’s storage pouch.
Chu Feng who was watching from the side couldn’t help but feel envious.
Senior Sister Yuyan was actually this rich?!
She had just casually taken out the equivalent of a third of Chu Feng’s entire fortune….and she did it so effortlessly, as if it were nothing.
“Junior Brother, let’s go inside and have a look too.”
At this moment, Bai Yuyan was in high spirits. After all, she and her Junior Brother truly looked like a couple. Even a child had noticed it at a glance.
In that instant, Bai Yuyan even began wondering. If she and her Junior Brother had children in the future, would it be better to have a daughter or a son? What would they name their child?
Besides, she had also seen Lin Ruo go inside just now. She wasn’t really interested in the treasures themselves, but in making sure Lin Ruo left empty-handed, she was very interested.
And anyway, Lin Ruo was destined to have plenty of good things in the future, with sharp judgment to match. But for now? Everything would belong to her Junior Brother!
Chu Feng, of course, had no idea what Bai Yuyan was thinking at this moment. If he had, he would have been shocked and said, “Wasn’t this the kind of thought only a man should have when seeing a beautiful woman?”
You’re just greedy for me… ahem!
Since Senior Sister Yuyan wanted to go in, Chu Feng was naturally delighted. With a rich “sugar mommy” like her by his side, his confidence was sky-high.
What? You want to say it’s shameful to rely on a woman?
Then let it be shameful! This way, Chu Feng could shamelessly rely on her forever, fair and square!

The Myriad Treasures Pavilion was a branch of the largest merchant guild in the Great Yan, and it housed countless treasures. Every auction held there could even attract seventh-rank experts to attend.
When Chu Feng arrived at the entrance of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he and Senior Sister Yuyan walked toward the special Dao-companion passageway.
After all, the entry fee was only a single spirit stone. Most cultivators could afford that much, and those who couldn’t wouldn’t even bother showing up at an auction like this.
As Chu Feng and Bai Yuyan entered the passage, they noticed a young boy who looked like he wanted to speak up. But before he could, the older youth beside him quickly smacked his arm, and the boy closed his mouth.
What was that about?
“Brother, why didn’t you make them prove they were Dao companions just now?”
The younger one looked at the stunningly beautiful woman and felt nothing but envy for the man beside her.
The older youth smacked the boy on the head and said, “Are you kidding me? I was already jealous just from watching them walk in. If we’d made them prove it by kissing in front of me, I’d be so jealous I wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight!”
***
Chu Feng pushed open the door and saw that while the room was small, it had everything one could need.
“Junior Brother, are you satisfied with it?”
Bai Yuyan had purposely chosen one of the premium suites. Now that she looked around, though, she found it only so-so.
“Of course I’m satisfied. It’s just that I feel bad making Senior Sister Yuyan spend so much.”
Once again, Chu Feng was struck by Senior Sister Yuyan’s astonishing wealth. He still remembered how she had just pulled out a black-gold card, which had scared the attendant so much that he immediately called for the manager.
Who would have thought this cultivation world even had something like a black card?
And Senior Sister Yuyan actually owned one!
It seemed she truly was hiding her strength in plain sight. Chu Feng felt deeply shaken.
“All right, Junior Brother, come sit here with me. The auction is about to begin.”
Bai Yuyan gently patted the empty seat beside her, motioning for Chu Feng to sit down.
Chu Feng had no choice but to sit next to her, since the room only had one long bench.
Surrounded by her faint, elegant smell, the next moment, Bai Yuyan’s soft body leaned right into Chu Feng’s arms.
Feeling the warmth and fragrance pressing against him, Chu Feng instinctively tried to shift a little away.
But the moment he moved, Bai Yuyan also adjusted her position whether intentionally or not and ended up perfectly nestled against him.
Chu Feng: “!!!”
Crap! Gotta hold it together!
He hurriedly shifted his focus, determined not to lose control here.
Meanwhile, Bai Yuyan was quite satisfied with this position. True, some parts weren’t exactly soft… but that was exactly what she wanted.
No one paid attention to what was happening in the little private room, and the auction was just beginning.
An elder appeared on stage and began presenting the very first auction item.
Chu Feng listened to the elder, waiting to see if Lin Ruo would make a bid.
If he didn’t, then it meant the item wasn’t anything special. Not worth wanting!
Sure enough, even till the end, Lin Ruo never spoke.
“Junior brother, want a bite?”
Bai Yuyan picked a piece of fruit from the platter and, holding it delicately between her pale fingers, brought it to Chu Feng’s lips.
“Senior Sister Yuyan, something like this… I can do it myself.”
Chu Feng felt a bit embarrassed. For some reason, Senior Sister Yuyan really liked feeding him.
“Be good~ Open wide~”
Bai Yuyan acted as if she hadn’t heard him, smiling sweetly.
“…Alright, I’ll eat it.”
Left with no choice, Chu Feng took a bite.
Juice burst in his mouth the moment he bit down. It was delicious.
Just as he swallowed, he heard the elder below mention a special iron piece with a starting bid of 100 spirit stones.
Then, a familiar voice rang out.
“One hundred and fifty spirit stones!”
Huh?!!
Lin Ruo’s voice!
Chu Feng immediately looked at the black iron piece. He had no idea what it was, but if Lin Ruo was buying it, he was going to follow suit.
“One hundred and fifty-one spirit stones!”
Chu Feng shouted without hesitation.
Heh. Just one more than Lin Ruo.
At that moment, Bai Yuyan who was nestled comfortably in Chu Feng’s arms wore a look of pure contentment. Who cared about Lin Ruo right now? Staying close to her junior brother was far more enjoyable.
Lin Ruo, of course, recognized the voice. Chu Feng!
“Two hundred spirit stones!”
“Two hundred and one spirit stones!”
The auction hall instantly lit up with excitement.
Oh? Looks like some drama’s brewing. Time to sit back and enjoy the show. This was going to be good!
Lin Ruo gritted his teeth. “One thousand spirit stones!”
When Chu Feng heard his bid, he backed off immediately. He was out of his league. He only had three hundred spirit stones.
No wonder he’s the main character….so rich!
Lin Ruo was only at the first rank of cultivation, yet he had this much money? Chu Feng glanced at himself and nearly teared up. Life was unfair, folks!
“One thousand and one spirit stones!”
A clear, melodious voice rang out, making Lin Ruo’s face darken instantly.
Chu Feng looked down at the senior sister in his arms. Bai Yuyan’s enchanting eyes were locked onto him, full of flirtatious intent.
“Junior brother~ If I buy it for you… how will you thank me~?”
