With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

After that meeting, Lin Fan spent another few peaceful days in Sunset City.

It wasn't that he didn't have anything to do back at the town, but rather it was because he had to wait for other people to finish their things first.

It wasn't just waiting for the Mercenary Guild to assemble the group that they were sending to his town. He was also waiting for Yue Lan to prepare another group of people to bring to the town.

These people were all skilled people that would be able to help with the management of the town and most importantly, it would free up Yue Lan to take over his village chief roles.

Since that was the case, Lin Fan didn't mind waiting a few days longer for her to get these people ready.

And when they were prepared, he wasn't disappointed by them.

They were all professional and seemed very capable, but Lin Fan also noticed something strange about them. For some reason, Yue Lan had only hired females and they were all looking at him with strange looks.

Lin Fan didn't understand why they were looking at him like this and when he asked Yue Lan, all she said was, "You're just imagining it."

But no matter what Lin Fan felt, he couldn't help feeling strange as they looked at him.

After all, when they looked at him, their eyes couldn't help moving down to his lower part…

Still, Lin Fan's attention was turned away by the group that the Mercenary Guild sent. That was because the leader of this group was actually Tian Tian.

Seeing her, Lin Fan was pleasantly surprised since it meant he would get to spend more time with her, but he also couldn't help asking, "Why is someone like you coming? It's just a small town, I don't think that it's important enough for you to come."

Tian Tian shook her head with a faint smile, "Well, this just shows how important this is to the Mercenary Guild. This is a place that can create things like High Qi Gathering Realm Artifacts, so it's not a place that can be looked down on." Then after a pause, she said with a teasing smile, "Well, of course there are added benefits as well."

Lin Fan revealed a smile when he heard this and he couldn't help teasing her back, "Then does that mean that we will have time to discuss things in private?"

Tian Tian had a faint blush appear on her cheeks before she softly punched Lin Fan's shoulder without saying anything.

Lin Fan just revealed a knowing smile before leading the group out of the city.

It was a long journey because there weren't enough spirit beasts to pull the carriages, so they had no choice but to settle with normal horses which were much slower than spirit beasts. Even the Mercenary Guild didn't have enough spirit beasts available for all of their carriages.

Well, it wasn't that they didn't have enough, it was just that it was too much to invest for the Mercenary Guild since they still needed to hold some spirit beasts for emergencies. Not to mention that this wasn't a time sensitive thing, so it didn't matter if they took their time heading there.

But a slow journey wasn't something that they were against.

It was a nice and relaxing journey in the end.

When they arrived, the first thing that Tian Tian wanted to do was to see the dungeon that Lin Fan had found.

So before they could even settle down, the group from the Mercenary Guild were brought to the fountain in the center of the town.

Tian Tian was confused when she saw the fountain in front of them and couldn't help asking, "This is?"

Lin Fan didn't say a thing as he came to the side of the fountain and leaned down by the ground. After pushing a button that was hidden there, there was a shaking feeling that suddenly appeared.

This shaking feeling was then followed by a loud sound as the ground in front of them suddenly swung up to reveal a set of stairs that led into the ground.

As the ground swung up in front of them, the chins of Tian Tian and the other people from the Mercenary Guild group all dropped down. They couldn't believe what they just saw, but it was there in front of them, so they couldn't deny it.

After being surprised for a bit, Tian Tian came forward and looked down the stairs to see what was ahead. She was surprised to find that there was a well lit room that was at the bottom of the stairs but she couldn't see what was beyond it since it was blocked by the door to the stairs.

Tian Tian turned back to look at the others and Lin Fan and Lin Fan gave a nod before leading the way down for them.

After they entered, they saw that it was a well lit room that didn't have much in it. The only things that they could see was a fountain right in the center and several different pathways for them to take.

The group curiously came over to the fountain and when they took a closer look, Tian Tian couldn't help saying, "There are traces of spiritual energy in here…"

The others were surprised when they heard this, but they were also able to sense the spiritual energy coming from the fountain very soon.

The mercenaries all revealed excited looks as they knew what water containing spiritual energy meant. As long as they had access to this fountain, then they would be able to draw spiritual energy from it and increase their cultivation.

Just this fountain alone was already worth the trip even if they didn't find anything.

But Tian Tian didn't agree with them as she knitted her brows to look at the fountain.

No matter how she looked at it, she didn't think that this fountain would be as simple as it seemed. After all, there was no way that something this convenient would be placed here…

This seemed like a very obvious trap.

It wouldn't be a surprise if the water was poisoned.

But these mercenaries that came with her couldn't take it anymore and one of them came forward to say, "I'll test it!"

Before Tian Tian could say anything to stop this person, they had already scooped up some water to drink.

After drinking the water, it didn't seem like anything was going to happen to this person. However, after a minute, that person suddenly bent over and held their stomach.

This wasn't a surprise to Tian Tian since she already expected the fountain to be poisoned, but she couldn't let someone from her party die just like this. They still had plenty of the dungeon left to explore.

When she was about to come forward, that person suddenly sat down cross legged and started cultivating.

In front of everyone's confused gaze, this person gathered the spiritual energy in the surrounding air and soon broke through to the next level.

Everyone was shocked by this, including Lin Fan who had placed this fountain in the first place.

The description that had been given to him when he bought this fountain was that it was supposed to be a fountain of healing.

Based on that, he had thought that it would help heal wounds of the people who entered the dungeon or came out of the dungeon, just like a safe zone in the video games that he played. He never thought that just drinking from this fountain would be enough for someone to break through with.

After all, all that should have been in the fountain was some water with healing properties imbued into it. It shouldn't have been concentrated enough that people could obtain enough energy to break through from it.

But he hadn't read the fine text of the fountain when he bought it.

This kind of fountain had been adapted to the cultivation world, so it used spiritual energy to heal people with a special technique that converted this spiritual energy into healing energy. But it was still spiritual energy that was used.

The fine text of the fountain had stated that it was useful for anyone in the Qi Gathering Realm, so the energy contained was enough that it could even heal those in the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm.

For these Low Qi Gathering Realm Cultivators that had come with Tian Tian to this dungeon, this wasn't a small amount of spiritual energy. So it wasn't strange that they were able to break through with just a single sip of the water.

After seeing the first person break through, the others didn't hesitate at all to scoop up a mouthful of the water for themselves.

It didn't take long before the rest of them had all broken through as well.

All of them had looks of joy on their faces after they broke through.

They had just taken this job because it was a simple job, but now they were praising themselves for their intellect. After all, if they hadn't come on this job, they might not have encountered this magic fountain that gave them enough spiritual energy to break through.

Tian Tian just knitted her brows and watched from the side since she still didn't trust the fountain.

However, after taking their first sip of the water, the mercenaries all started drinking more of the water.

But no matter how much they drank, they found that it didn't contain the same spiritual energy as before. Other than the first mouthful of water, they gained no more spiritual energy.
