My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife
chapter-1760

Time flew by as nightfall arrived in the blink of an eye.

The night was pitch dark, with nothing but a bright moon in the skies. The size of a basin, the moon light lit up the the ground, creating a mysterious but magnificent façade.

Qingfeng Li and Mengyao Xu headed towards the Auction Company without Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake.

Qingfeng Li originally wanted to meet Ya Yun on his own to get the map of the Crimson Fire Continent, but Mengyao Xu was worried about him and insisted on tagging along. She was afraid that something would happen between Ya Yun and him.

Not knowing how to react, Qingfeng Li thought, I’m a good guy, how can you be so doubtful?

However, Qingfeng Li also knew that Mengyao Xu was easily jealous, so he had to let her come along.

After a while, the duo arrived at the Auction Company. The building was grand and stood out even in the night. Once the guards outside saw Qingfeng Li, they bowed in respect and immediately welcomed him in.

They remembered that Qingfeng Li was an esteemed guest of the Auction Company, who had been personally invited by Miss Ya Yun herself. Today, Miss Ya Yun also informed them to invite Qingfeng Li in as soon as he arrived.

After Qingfeng Li and Mengyao Xu entered the room, they saw Ya Yun was sitting there, sipping tea.

Ya Yun was wearing a fabulous red dress that showed off all the curves on her body. She had beautiful features, snow-white skin, and long eyelashes.

Perhaps it was for Qingfeng Li, but Ya Yun was wearing a thin layer of makeup, making her even more beautiful than usual.

Qingfeng Li’s face lit up at the sight of her, and Mengyao Xu pinched him immediately, reminding him to look away.

Ya Yun’s face dimmed when she saw Mengyao Xu. Her father had told her to recruit Qingfeng Li, but he didn’t seem to be interested in anything, not even monarch level elixirs.

Therefore, Ya Yun decided to sacrifice herself to get Qingfeng Li to join the Business Alliance, but she didn’t expect Mengyao Xue to tag along. For some reason, Ya Yun didn’t like Mengyao, not even a little bit.

Did all beautiful women detest each other, and could only be enemies, just like Xue Lin and Ruyan Liu way back when?

Qingfeng Li sighed silently at the thought of Xue Lin and Ruyan Liu. He knew that Xue Lin was in the northern part of Crimson Fire Continent, but it would take a while before he could get to her.

As for Ruyan Liu, he still didn’t know where she was, Qingfeng Li thought regrettably.

To avoid awkwardness between the two, Qingfeng Li spoke first, “Ya Yun, do you have the map?”

Ya Yun beamed at him as her slim fingers reached into her inside pocket to take out a map. She handed it to Qingfeng Li and said, “This is the map of the Crimson Fire Continent. It’s very detailed, and there are notes on every kingdom, sect, and even areas with powerful creatures in them.”

Qingfeng Li nodded his head and thanked her as he took the map into his hands. Looking carefully, he realized that the Crimson Fire Continent was incredibly vast, and was billions of square kilometers in size.

Qingfeng Li estimated that with his currently powers, travelling from the southern-most point to the northern-most point would take him at least a year.

With the map in his hands, Qingfeng Li said, “Ya Yun, I’m going to go now. Tomorrow, I will leave Lingyun and head towards the north of the Crimson Fire Continent.”

Ya Yun didn’t want Qingfeng Li to leave, but had no choice, as she saw the determination in Qingfeng Li’s eyes.

No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead may be, Qingfeng Li had to go to the Dark Ice Sect, because a woman who was extremely important to him was waiting there.

Boom, boom, boom…

Just as Qingfeng Li and Ya Yun were speaking, a series of loud booms echoed the skies. The sound was crisp and shook the entire earth, along with the room they were in – was it an earthquake?

Qingfeng Li felt a strong sense of energy coming from the loud noises, and he knew that whatever was making the noise must be extremely powerful.

His expression changed. “Let’s go and see what’s happening.”

The three of them hurried outside, and their faces froze with shock as they left the hall.

It was nighttime, but extremely bright outside. Colors of the rainbow lit up the skies – red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple…

Each ray of light represented a powerful energy, that of swords, sabers, spiritual treasures and artifacts.

Qingfeng Li estimated that the rainbow rays were at least ten million kilometers away from them, but he could still clearly see that they were all monarch level dharma treasures.

There were also monarch level techniques and elixirs within the rainbow as well as other legendary treasures.

Qingfeng Li, Mengyao Xu and Ya Yun looked in awe – neither of them was monarch level, so naturally they were extremely attracted to all these monarch level treasures and elixirs.

These were no ordinary level one Spirit Monarch Realm treasures – some were that of level three, while others were level five, or even level eight.

It took a while before the three of them were pulled back into reality.

Qingfeng Li asked Ya Yun, “Do you know where the rays came from just now? How were there so many monarch level elixirs, techniques and spiritual treasures?”

Ya Yun took a deep breath in and tried to push down the shock bubbling inside of her, “if I’m not mistaken, the lights were probably coming from the Death Mountains.”

Qingfeng Li was puzzled – he wasn’t familiar with the Crimson Fire Continent, and never heard of the Death Mountains. He looked at Ya Yun, waiting for an explanation.

Mengyao Xu didn’t know anything about this either, so she looked towards Ya Yun also. Ya Yun was the daughter of the chairman of the biggest business alliance within the Crimson Fire Continent – this alliance had a lot of intel and knew a lot of ancient mysteries.
