Chapter 477
Wanda’s intuition told her she’d struck gold. Anyone capable of crafting top–grade pills was a rare master, even at the Curios Chamber. Even the head of the branch, like her, wasn’t qualified to host someone like that. Senior executives would personally welcome a client of that caliber
“Mr. Gray, please have a seat!” Wanda looked at Ashton as if he were her ticket to promotion. Her cold, aloof demeanor vanished. A warm, flattering smile took its place and she even tossed him a playful wink. She had to win over this VIP–this was her big break!
Ashton nodded, totally getting her excitement. A single top–tier pill could make major factions scramble. Its value spoke for itself, let alone the person who could refine it.
Wanda’s smile was bright, her voice rich and velvety. The sky–blue dress hugged her figure, accentuating a graceful, alluring silhouette. “Mr. Gray, you’re here today to auction these three top–grade pills, right?”
Ashton nodded, “That’s right. Besides that, I’m also looking for the Compendium of Special Constitutions.”
Wanda’s smile grew even more captivating at that. “Mr. Gray, rest assured that I’ll make sure these three pills fetch the best price. As for the Compendium of Special Constitutions, it will indeed be on the block tonight. You can bid for it directly then. With your resources, I don’t think securing it will be a problem.”
“I’ll be counting on you, then, Ms. Shepherd.”
“You’re too polite, Mr. Gray. From now on, just call me Wanda.” With confident poise, Wanda slipped an Obsidian Draconic Card into Ashton’s hand. “This is the Curios Chamber’s top–tier Obsidian Draconic Card. There’s no spending limit attached.
“You can use it freely at any location under the Curios Chamber’s umbrella and receive the very best service. Please, you must accept it.”
Nadine’s eyes widened when she saw the Obsidian Draconic Card. It was the pinnacle of VIP treatment at the Curios Chamber. Even she herself only had a Golden Draconic Card, which was two tiers lower.
“I can’t accept such generosity for nothing. How about this? I’ll heal your old injury, Wanda,” Ashton said with a smile.
He wanted to establish a solid relationship with the Curios Chamber. It would be hugely beneficial to his future influence. In terms of true power, the Curios Chamber even stood above the Legion.
“That would be an incredible favor, Mr. Gray. It’s just… I’ve had this injury for ten years. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to cure.” A shadow crossed Wanda’s face. She clearly didn’t dare hope for too much.
“It’s not difficult. Let’s find a private room,” Ashton said confidently.
Wanda glanced at him and nodded. “Please come with me.”
Soon, the two of them arrived in a secluded room.
Ashton said, “This old injury was inflicted by a peak transcendent realm expert, right? He left a strand of his energy in your body, and it’s been tormenting you ever since.”
“How do you know that?” Wanda stared at him, stunned.
He chuckled. “Now, do you believe I can heal you?”
Her heartbeat quickened. “I believe you! I’m blessed to have met you!”
This old injury had plagued her for far too long, and she had almost given up hope.

Ashton hesitated, then said, “Wanda, to cure this completely, I’ll need your cooperation.”
“I’ll do whatever it takes,” she said.
He glanced at her dress and spoke evenly. “Then I’ll have to ask you to take off your dress. For a full recovery, my acupuncture can’t be blocked by clothing.”
“Huh?” Wanda froze, her delicate frame trembling slightly
She looked at him with a flicker of doubt and murmured, “Do I need to take it all off?”
