"Wang Yao, huh?" Fu Kai lightly nodded, "I will keep that in mind. Anything else I can help you with?"
Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Do you mind sharing the current most valuable item in the auction?"
Fu Kai chuckled, "Nah, that will be revealed three weeks from now."
"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded, "No problem, I just asked that on a whim. We will wait for three weeks."
Fu Kai smiled, "Thank you, it would be my pleasure to see you in the Annual Auction."
…
After a few more minutes of a casual chat. Ye Tian Yun and Jun Xie left the Fu Clan Auction House.
"What happened?" As they crossed the street, Jun Xie asked Ye Tian Yun.
"What do you mean?"
"You know very well I mean, why were you in a hurry to leave? As soon as he said he wouldn't reveal the item, you were in a hurry to leave."
"Well, in my defense, I must say I don't have any more good impressions of Fu Kai."
"Hm? That came out of nowhere. You don't like him just because he followed the rules? You do know that he's just one of the many young masters in his clan, right?"
Ye Tian Yun stopped for a moment and then said, "You're right. I take back my words and rephrase them - I don't have any more good impressions of the Fu Clan."
"..." Jun Xie frowned, "Is it very important for you to know about the item?"
"No, I couldn't care less about it." Ye Tian Yun frowned, "What irked me was the day they were planning to reveal the main attraction for the Auction. They are revealing it… on the day of my wedding."
"Oh, do you mean…"
"Yeah, they are trying to steal the limelight from the Fang Clan."
"And you care about that?"
"No. I just don't like these little games, especially when they are at my expense."
"Oh?" Jun Xie asked, "Since we're on this topic, what are your thoughts on marriage? You know, with you being in disguise and the real guy being long dead, how are you going to deal with that Gao Clan girl?"
"I won't."
"What do you mean you won't?" Jun Xie couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me you're planning to run away from your own marriage?"
Ye Tian Yun sighed, "Honestly, I don't even care. It's not a big deal for me to get married. I will just have 'Fang Chen' killed in an accident and go back to the Middle HEavens."
"Then what about your wife?"
"... You're phrasing it wrong. Gao Suyin thinks she's marrying Fang Chen."
"Yeah, but you won't feel hurt at all?"
"Oh, come on, Jun Xie. Grow up, will ya?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "I don't care about this. Do you really think I am here for romance and getting close with a random girl? I can… I can find hundreds of Gao Suyin in the Middle Heavens; it's not like there's a lack of good-looking young ladies out there; stop making mountains out of molehills."
Jun Xie sighed, "Alright, alright. I won't bother with your stupid life decisions, but one last question - what if, listen carefully, what if you fell for her? Or… you did the deed?"
Ye Tian Yun frowned, "First answer, I won't. The answer for the second one is, I won't."
Jun Xie shrugged, "Thoughts so. After all, you're not even an adult yet."
Ye Tian Yun muttered, "I will be in a few months."
Jun Xie couldn't help but laugh, "I can't help but think, what are you even here for, Fang Chen?"
"That's Brother Ye for you." Ye Tian Yun said, "Stop calling me Fang Chen; I am not a big fan of this name."
"What did this guy do to you?" Jun Xie asked, "Honestly, you're the son of the most powerful man. You're the highest level boss among all the young masters of the world; why would you come here personally? If I was at your place, I may have chosen to use my clan and kill all my enemies at once."
Ye Tian Yun nodded, "That would have been the best choice, to dig your own grave."
"How? Do your enemies have the power to confront your clan?"
"No," Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "It's the Ye Clan which would have killed me. Jun Xie, you're still living in a bubble. Once you understand the true nature of the people around you, you will change - for better or for worse. And, trust me, to survive, being the son of the most powerful person is not enough."
Jun Xie asked, "I wonder how powerful MY father is. Since you know him, you must have an idea about his cultivation realm, right?"
Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and shook his head, "He never mentioned the exact cultivation, but I can assure you that it's higher than half saint realm."
"Really!?" Jun Xie was surprised, "Here, that's the peak cultivation, isn't it?"
Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Half Saint is reachable. Honestly, if you make use of your talent and potential in alchemy, you will be able to go way higher than that."
"...I don't even know the names of cultivation realms higher than the Saint Realm."
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "You will know when the time comes; for now, focus on reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm."
Jun Xie frowned, "That will take at least a year."
"A year?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "No, that's too long. It would be best if you reached the Foundation Establishment Realm before the Grand Spirit Hunt. I didn't befriend you to become a burden on me."
"What!? Are you kidding me?" Jun Xie frowned, "Foundation Establishment is not a walk in the park. And it would be best if you worried about yourself rather than me. How about we race who reaches the Foundation Establishment Realm first?"
<<Sure.>>
"You sound confident, but you're - wait, what was that?"
<<I said sure. Let's bet who reaches Foundation Establishment Realm first.>>
"..." Jun Xie.
<<What?>>
"Are you fucking kidding me!? How old are you? How did you cultivate so fast!? Is the Middle Heavens really that good? Fuck!"
<<Woah, Woah, calm down. Middle Heavens is good, but you're expecting too much. The true answer is that it depends on the cultivation talent, and not gonna lie, I kinda count as a genius in that regard.>>
