The next morning, everyone looked tired when they came down to breakfast.
The one exception to this was Lin Fan who had a very refreshed look on his face.
It had been a long time since he had done it and he had forgotten how good it was.
As for the girls they were all tired because they had forgotten how much energy Lin Fan had. But it also just wasn’t that alone.
Even if Lin Fan had tired himself out every day so he didn’t feel the urge, his sexual energy was stored up inside him during this month.
To suddenly release it like this, it was a bit too much for these girls.
So it wasn’t surprising to see them all collapsed like this.
The only surprise was Duanmu Yi who was also tired even though she went to sleep early.
When Lin Fan saw this, he couldn’t help asking, “Xiao Yi, what’s wrong? Didn’t you sleep well last night?”
Duanmu Yi looked at Lin Fan and her face couldn’t help turning red as she remembered what happened last night. After coughing a few times to hide her embarrassment, she awkwardly said, “It’s nothing big brother Lin. I’m just not used to sleeping in a new bed.”
Lin Fan gave a nod since this was a valid reason and didn’t choose to dig any deeper. He just said, “If you’re tired, you can go take a nap later.”
Duanmu Yi shook her head and said, “No, I’m going out with big sister Lala and big sister Xiao Yue later.”
Seeing how excited she looked, everyone couldn’t help revealing a faint smile.
After all, this was her first time in this big city, so it was understandable that she would be excited. It was like her first road trip.
p Lin Fan added, “Alright, but make sure that you don’t overdo it.”
Everyone at the table thought that it was cute how excited Duanmu Yi was about going into the city, but what they didn’t know was that Duanmu Yi had a goal for going into the city.
She wanted to learn as much as she could as soon as she could so she could better serve Lin Fan. She wanted to be praised by him, she wanted to be held by him, she wanted him inside of her…She wanted him, so she would work hard until she got him.
After the girls left to take care of their own business, Lin Fan headed to the Mercenary Guild with Tian Tian.
Tian Tian had already discussed the matter of the sword with Tian Xue yesterday, so they had already come up with a decision on this matter. They were just meeting Lin Fan today to discuss how they would cooperate with him.
Tian Tian hadn’t told Lin Fan anything about this yesterday, but even if she wanted to, they didn’t have time with what happened last night…
After they arrived at the Mercenary Guild, a staff member immediately showed them to a meeting room on the second floor and Tian Xue came in not long after.
However as soon as she came in, she looked at Tian Tian with a strange look as she realized how tired she looked. She had a look of concern flash in her eyes, but she also quickly realized why Tian Tian was tired and revealed a faint teasing smile.
Tian Tian gave an awkward cough before saying, “President, since you’re here, how about we get to business?”
Tian Xue saw the awkward look on her face and she gave a chuckle before choosing not to tease her anymore. She and Tian Tian sat down in front of Lin Fan and then she pulled out the sword that Lin Fan had brought out yesterday.
Her expression turned serious as she looked at Lin Fan and asked, “Can you guarantee that you found this sword in that “dungeon” of yours?”
Lin Fan was taken aback by how serious she suddenly became, but he gave a serious nod as he said, “Yes.”
Tian Xue just looked at Lin Fan for a bit longer before suddenly giving a nod and saying, “Alright, that decides it then.”
Tian Tian on the side also revealed a happy smile.
It was only Lin Fan who was confused since he didn’t know what they were talking about.
Tian Xue saw this and explained, “We will be sending a member of the Mercenary Guild to inspect the area. If this “dungeon” really is as you say it is, it will be worth building a branch of the Mercenary Guild there. After all, if things like this are hidden inside, then it surely is a place that is filled with treasures.”
Lin Fan looked at the sword that was placed on the table before asking in a confused voice, “Is this really that special?”
Tian Tian and Tian Xue both looked at each other before looking at Lin Fan with surprised looks.
Could it be that he didn’t even know the value of this sword?
And yet he was this determined to sell it to their Mercenary Guild…
At that moment, the two of them felt gratitude towards Lin Fan. It seemed like their choice to support him in the beginning really wasn’t wrong.
Tian Tian explained, “This sword has been appraised as a High Grade Qi Gathering Realm Artifact. Something like this could only be found and not bought with money, so of course it’s special.”
Lin Fan looked at the sword with a strange look.
Tian Tian and Tian Xue thought that it was just him finally realizing the true value of this sword, but it wasn’t that.
This sword was actually just the cheapest sword that Lin Fan could buy from the Dungeon Master System with DP. He was planning on putting them in the treasure chests of the dungeon, but now he was thinking that maybe it would be a bit too much to put them in each chest…
After all, Tian Tian had said that this sword could only be found and not bought with money, so it must be valuable. If he were to auction this, just how much money would he get from it?
However, this sword wasn’t even that strong compared to the Gramr.
Gramr had an attack value of 100 even in its sealed state and this sword only had an attack of 10. Just that measly amount of attack was enough for it to be classified as a High Qi Gathering Realm Artifact?
Then what would Gramr be categorized as?
But he didn’t say anything else about this since this was the result that he wanted to see.
The other thing that a dungeon town needed other than the dungeon itself was the customers. If customers didn’t come, then there was no revenue and no DP points generated.
So there was no better customer than the Mercenary Guild.
It was filled with people who would be willing to explore the dungeon and stay in the dungeon town, so if he could get a Mercenary Guild branch built in the town, then it would mean even more customers.
To attract the Mercenary Guild, he had taken out this sword, but he never imagined that it would be this effective.
But since the sword had accomplished this task, there was nothing for him to complain about.
So with this decided, Lin Fan’s heart finally dropped down and he was able to talk to them more calmly.
The two sides discussed the details of this matter and it was determined that there would be a group from the Mercenary Guild that would go back to the town with Lin Fan in a few days. As for who would be a part of that group, they told Lin Fan that they would have to determine this still.
However, that didn’t matter to Lin Fan. The only thing that mattered was that they were sending a group to check out the town.
Once this was determined, there was only one matter left for them to discuss.
Lin Fan had already said that he would be selling this sword to the Mercenary Guild, but they had never set a price yet.
This sword was without a doubt a precious thing for the Mercenary Guild, but the funding needed to acquire this sword was a bit limited. After all, this was just a branch office of the Mercenary Guild in a small city like Sunset City, naturally they didn’t receive that much funding from the Mercenary Guild headquarters.
Between the funds necessary to run the Mercenary Guild branch daily, they didn’t have much else leftover to buy a sword like this.
Of course, if they bought it, they would be able to quickly sell it with their connections and make all of that money back.
So now it all depended on how much Lin Fan was willing to sell this for.
Lin Fan didn’t make it hard on them since the Mercenary Guild had helped him quite a bit in the past. So he just told them to decide a price that they deemed was fair and to pay him that.
Tian Xue and Tian Tian were both surprised by how generous he was, but Tian Xue was the first to react by saying, “If I knew that I could get so many benefits, I would have sold you my little sister a long time ago.”
Tian Tian’s face turned red before she slapped Tian Xue on the shoulder and glared at her.
Tian Xue just turned to Lin Fan with a teasing smile and said, “What would you give us if I sold myself to you?”
Lin Fan was surprised by her sudden teasing, but he quickly recovered and responded, “You’ll just have to find out.”
It was Tian Xue’s turn to be surprised, but she didn’t take it to heart as she said, “Well, you have to get a bit stronger before we can talk about that.”
The rest of the meeting was just telling Lin Fan the price of the sword that they had decided.
The two of them didn’t make it hard for Lin Fan or take advantage of his kindness, they paid him the average price for the sword, but that amount was quite large. That was because it was paid in spirit stones.
In the end, this sword was worth a hundred low grade spirit stones which was equal to a million gold coins. However, that was only if one could even buy spirit stones in the first place.
Spirit stones were rare items to begin with since they only came from spirit veins and those were all strictly controlled by the sects. So unless one was a cultivator from a sect, it was almost impossible to get spirit stones.
But of course, merchants were able to get spirit stones from trading with cultivators, so spirit stones still showed up on the market from time to time.
However, when they did show up on the market, the prices would often be inflated and it was almost impossible to get spirit stones for ten thousand gold coins each. The only reason they were commonly recognized to be worth that much was because that was the standard set by the sects.
So Lin Fan was shocked to see these spirit stones for the first time.
These were small stones that were completely blue and opaque. It didn’t seem like there was anything special about them, but he could feel the spiritual energy coming from them. It was clear that there was a large amount of spiritual energy that was contained within each one.
It was no wonder these spirit stones were so precious to cultivators.
If he were to absorb even one of these spirit stones, he was sure that his cultivation would increase significantly.
However, he wasn’t going to use them since they were precious resources. He would need these in the future to trade with other cultivators for precious items. Such as items that were used by Foundation Realm cultivators.
