With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods-Chapter 70 Old Acquaintances

Once they were done sorting out all things in the Pet Storage Space, Lin Fan's group headed down the road again. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

For the rest of their journey, there was nothing special that happened, but they did move a bit slower.

Since Lin Fan had made a decision, he had the Gale Sparrow look for herbs in the wild so he could find some seeds to plant in the Pet Storage Space.

However, no matter which seeds he tried planting in the Pet Storage Space, they never took root or sprouted. The seeds that he planted just laid there in the soil of the Pet Storage Space.

Eventually, Lin Fan gave up until he found that there was another herb that had taken root.

This herb was different from the other herbs, it was an herb that had taken root called the Dragon Tongue Herb and it was considered quite the valuable herb. It was something that Lin Fan had found by chance and he had heard that it was an herb that even Foundation Realm Cultivators wanted since it could be used to create pills that would help them.

After carefully analyzing this, he realized that only herbs of a certain grade could be planted in this Pet Storage Space.

To put it simply, the seeds that he had collected along the way were all considered trash in the eyes of the Pet Storage Space, or rather the system, which was why they hadn't been able to take root and sprout.

Lin Fan had a bitter smile on his face when he came to this realization, but he also quickly accepted it since there was nothing that he could do about it. At least he could comfort himself by saying that he only planted the best herbs he could find.

As for the rest of the trip, there was nothing special that happened since no one was willing to pick a fight with Lin Fan's group, especially with Hi pulling their carriage. Hi's appearance made it very clear that he was a powerful spirit beast, so no one was foolish enough to mess with Lin Fan's group.

Their group arrived two days before the auction was set to start and to their surprise, they found that Inferno City was already filled with people.

The streets were almost completely packed as people with various kinds of clothing moved to different places.

It was clear that all of these people had gathered for the auction, but that was surprising considering the fact that nothing about the auction had been announced yet. The One Martial Chamber of Commerce had even purposefully hidden the information as much as they could.

So why were there so many people gathered here?

Could it be that these people had some kind of information that they didn't?

But if there was something that had been released, Tian Tian would have told him before he left. That must mean that something should have changed during the week that they had been traveling.

If that was the case, Lin Fan should head to the Mercenary Guild branch here to see if there was anything he could find.

Not to mention that that was where he had been planning on going in the first place.

He had hunted plenty of spirit beasts along the way and other than the ones that Yue Lan wanted to keep for her store, the other spirit beast corpses were just in the way. It was better to sell them to the Mercenary Guild to earn some money, while also getting some information.

So without hesitation, Lin Fan brought his group to the Mercenary Guild which wasn't hard to find. All he had to do was ask a single person nearby and he was soon pointed in the direction of the Mercenary Guild.

The Mercenary Guild in Inferno City was definitely bigger than the one in the city they came from since Inferno City was the bigger city. Since it was bigger, there were also more mercenaries that gathered here.

After coming in, Lin Fan's group was hit with a wave of noise as they saw countless people gathered inside of the Mercenary Guild. However, the Mercenary Guild was designed the same way, with a bar in the middle and the other facilities to the side.

Since only Lin Fan was needed to sell the goods, he let the other girls do what they wanted.

In the end, it was only Lala who came to the Mercenary Guild with him since she wanted to check up on a few things.

Lin Fan left Lala to wander alone as he headed over to the counter to turn in the spirit beast corpses.

Lala was able to walk around a bit since this was a different city, so there were few people that recognized her. However, there were still a few people who did recognize her in the end.

There was a group of three that had suddenly come in. It was a group composed of two young men and one woman.

The moment that they came in, their eyes immediately fell onto Lala.

While they were surprised to see her at first, they immediately revealed a faint smile and started approaching them. It was just too bad that there was also a hint of malice that was also found in this smile.

After coming up behind them, the man who was the leader of this group said, "Oh, isn't this the gorilla girl? What are you doing here?"

When Lala heard this, her first reaction was a flinch. Not because she recognized this voice, but rather because of what they had called her.

"Gorilla girl", that was a name that she hadn't heard in a long time…

Lala turned around to look at this group and asked in a sharp voice, "Do I need your permission to be here?"

The leader of the group revealed a faint smile as he said, "Even her words are rough."

Then he turned to the others and said, "It seems like she was kicked out of the Mercenary Guild, so she's working as a hunting beast again."

The woman of the group gave a giggle while covering her mouth before saying, "It's no wonder. With such a rough appearance, how could someone like her possibly hold a job as a receptionist?"

The other man of the group didn't laugh along with the other two, but he still looked at Lala with disdain as he said, "It seems like you're still alone." As he said this, it was clear that his voice was filled with hostility and a bit of bitterness. It was a different kind of hostility compared to the other two.

Lala wanted to say something back, but she couldn't in the end.

"Gorilla woman", that was a trauma of hers from when she had been a mercenary and even now, she still hadn't been able to overcome it.

It was also a major reason why she quit being a mercenary and decided to become a receptionist.

Back then, she had Tian Tian supporting her, but now, she was alone in a foreign city…

Seeing that Lala wasn't saying anything, the leader of the group came forward, wanting to take advantage of this. After all, even if they insulted her like this, the leader of the group had to admit that Lala was a beautiful girl. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

So he wanted to grab her hand and pull her aside so that he could take advantage of her.

But before his hand could grab her arm, there was another hand that suddenly came forward to grab his hand.

The leader of the group was surprised to see this and then he turned to the person who was grabbing his hand to shout something, but before he could, he immediately winced in pain. He felt an iron vice suddenly gripping his arm and it was almost as if it was about to rip his hand off.

With the pain that filled his arm, he couldn't remain standing anymore as he suddenly fell to his knees.

He looked up at the person who was gripping his arm and said in a weak voice, "Who, who are you?"

Lin Fan looked down at this man and just gave a cold snort before saying, "Watch your hand…" Then after a pause, he said in an even colder voice, "Or you won't have one anymore."

After saying this, he let go of this man's hand and turned back to Lala. He completely ignored the other two members who were gripping their weapons while facing him.

When he came in front of Lin Fan, he took her by the shoulders and pulled her into his embrace with one arm before turning back to face this group.

It was at this time that the leader finally recovered from the shock of being forced to his feet and he immediately jumped up in an angry manner as he pointed at Lin Fan while shouting, "Who do you think you are?"

Lin Fan just calmly said, "Isn't it good manners to introduce yourself first when asking someone for a name?"

The calm way that Lin Fan acted made the leader of the group even more angry as he roared, "You! Do you think that you can get away with this! You're attacking a mercenary in the Mercenary Guild!"

As his voice was raised, the people who were around them suddenly looked in their direction.

However, none of them had worried looks. Rather they all looked like they were watching an interesting play.

Lin Fan just gave a shrug and said, "So what?"

The leader of the group was taken aback by this before saying, "So what? Are you really looking down on the Mercenary Guild?"

Lin Fan just looked at him with a cold look and said, "While I can't kill you, I can do other things such as crippling you, can't I?"

When they heard the killing intent in Lin Fan's voice, the group couldn't help taking a step back in shock.
