BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 59: Teacher, Do You Know Someone With a Heavenly Flame?



"What a beauty!"

When this enchanting woman appeared in his sight, even Gu Fei couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although her looks weren't absolutely stunning, her alluring nature was off the charts.

Given her unique charm and the fact that she was at the Primer Auction House, Gu Fei didn't even need to guess her identity.

"Ya Fei greets the Crown Princess!"

Ya Fei recognized Yao Ye and greeted her with a charming smile. Then, her gaze naturally fell on Gu Fei, who was sitting quietly to the side.

Ya Fei could discern that this group of people was centered around Gu Fei. Even the Crown Princess Yao Ye seemed to be just accompanying him.

Her ability to read the room was exceptional. Combined with the news that had spread through the capital last night, Ya Fei quickly deduced that Gu Fei was the esteemed guest the royal family had invited.

Next, Ya Fei warmly extended her hospitality to Gu Fei.

"Young Master, if you see anything you like, just let this sister know!"

She gracefully stepped closer to Gu Fei, her voice carrying a soft, tingling sensation.

This woman radiated an irresistible charm. Under her long, alluring gaze, Gu Fei's heartbeat momentarily faltered.

With every smile and glance, Ya Fei exuded pure feminine allure, making even Gu Fei marvel at how captivating she was, like a bewitching cat. She was indeed a rare beauty, and few men could resist her.

Although she wasn't quite on par with Queen Medusa in terms of overall beauty, Ya Fei was far more proactive and adept at appealing to a man's desires.

"Hmph!"

Seeing Ya Fei's behavior, Xiao Yi Xian snorted softly, seemingly displeased. She quickly grabbed Gu Fei's hand and walked away.

Ya Fei could only manage an awkward smile at this and chose not to say more.

As they continued to browse the auction house, Gu Fei indulgently told Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, "Anything you like, just buy it. What matters most is what makes you happy!"

The two young girls, seeing such luxury for the first time, were visibly excited.

They eagerly explored the treasures, their eyes sparkling with wonder, and Gu Fei dutifully picked out each item they fancied, preparing to pay.

However, when it came time to settle the bill, Yao Ye quickly interjected, "Young Master Gu Fei, just charge these to my account."

Gu Fei didn't argue, as he wasn't particularly interested in these worldly goods.

After their shopping spree at the auction house, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were still brimming with excitement.

That evening, Jia Xing Tian even arranged a special banquet for Gu Fei, inviting all the elite families of the Jia Ma Empire.

The guests, aware of the significance of the event, had come well-prepared.

When Gu Fei received Jia Xing Tian's invitation, he hesitated for a moment. Remembering how excited the girls had been during their daytime shopping, he decided to take Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin to the banquet to broaden their horizons and let them experience something

new.

"A banquet? Sounds great!"

"I want to go too!"

Xiao Yi Xian was delighted and readily agreed. She and Qing Lin then started preparing their outfits for the evening, inspired by Yao Ye's elegant and sophisticated palace attire. While Xiao Yi Xian didn't express it openly, she was inwardly competitive, wanting to match up, whereas Qing Lin was simply focused on finding a beautiful dress.

...

That night, the banquet began on schedule.

Family heads like Mu Chen of the Mu Clan, Nalan Su of the Nalan Clan, and Teng Shan of the Primer Family all made their appearances. The three old men exchanged knowing smiles and lightly clinked their glasses, each aware of the other's intentions.

As soon as Gu Fei stepped into the banquet hall, every eye turned towards him.

"Young Master Gu Fei, you're here!"

Yao Ye and Jia Xing Tian greeted him with cheerful smiles. Tonight, Yao Ye was dressed in a very formal outfit, with a touch of rouge on her lips, making her look particularly enchanting. Everyone at the banquet turned their attention to Gu Fei, recognizing from Jia Xing Tian and Yao Ye's respectful demeanor that he was someone of great importance.

They knew that Gu Fei was the guest of honor at this event.

Mu Chen has become curious, +30 emotion points.

Nalan Su has...

Gu Fei's gaze swept across the crowd, and suddenly, a beautiful young woman caught his eye. She had a cold yet alluring appearance, and her beauty seemed to rival that of the woman who had once disappointed Gu Fei.

She was dressed in a long, wide-sleeved moon-white robe that hugged her slender waist, accentuated by a pale silver belt, perfectly highlighting her delicate figure.

Her earlobes were adorned with green jade pendants that emitted a crisp sound as they swayed, adding a touch of elegance.

When she unexpectedly met Gu Fei's gaze, there was an unmistakable curiosity in her eyes.

Nalan Yanran has become curious, +80 emotion points.

From the system's prompts, Gu Fei quickly identified the people present.

Nalan Yanran had recently broken through to the rank of a Da Grandmaster after consuming a pill given by Yun Yun. She had hurried down from the Misty Cloud Sect with the sole purpose of finding an alchemist who could detoxify her grandfather, Nalan Jie.

Years ago, Nalan Jie had been bitten by a fifth-rank magical beast, Searing Iron Poison Weed, and had been poisoned by its venom.

The venom was not ordinary; it was so potent that even sixth-rank magical beasts had been fatally poisoned by it. If not for the fact that these creatures were exceedingly rare, many across the continent would have feared it greatly.

Although Nalan Jie had managed to slow the spread of the venom, there was no way to completely cure it. The Nalan family could only watch as Nalan Jie weakened day by day, his life hanging by a thread.

Even the President of the Alchemist Guild, Master Fa Ma, was helpless. According to the Pill King, Gu He, only a heavenly flame could neutralize Nalan Jie's poison.

Nalan Yanran's curiosity about Gu Fei quickly gave way to concern for her grandfather.

In a somber mood, she found a spot outside the banquet hall to sit and drink alone, avoiding the other noble ladies who were trying to get close to Gu Fei.

...

"Teacher, why are you here?"

Before long, Nalan Yanran noticed her teacher, Yun Yun, arriving as she sat drinking outside

the banquet hall.

Yun Yun had heard about the royal family's invitation to Gu Fei and learned that he would be attending the banquet. After some internal conflict, she couldn't resist the urge to come and

see him.

Tonight, Yun Yun's attire was different from her usual style. She wore a somewhat revealing evening gown, more in line with what the noble ladies would wear, showcasing a different

side of her elegance.

The light, elegant white fabric highlighted Yun Yun's ethereal beauty, and the subtle softness of her outfit balanced her usual cool demeanor, making her even more captivating. "Teacher, what should I do? My grandfather is lying on his bed, on the brink of death, and

even Master Fa Ma is powerless..."

Nalan Yanran, her emotions uncontrollable due to the alcohol, tearfully told her teacher about her grandfather's condition.

Her face was filled with sadness, and her voice was choked with sobs.

Yun Yun listened in silence for a moment. Then, with a slight raise of her brow and a flash of emotion in her eyes, she asked, "Yanran, did Gu He really say that a heavenly flame could save

your grandfather?"

Her gaze involuntarily shifted to the hall, where Gu Fei was surrounded by people, his

expression calm and confident. Yun Yun's heart skipped a beat.

"Teacher, do you know someone who has a heavenly flame?"

Nalan Yanran, catching on quickly to her teacher's words, sobered up almost instantly, her

face lighting up with hope as she asked excitedly.
