Chapter 1191: Depending on the Payment

Liberf and the other two were taken aback by Roan's words. "What did you say?"

"30000 Merit Points per day," Roan repeated it once more. "Take it or leave it." Roan then began to walk away, not minding the reactions of those three.

"Wait just a second!" Eventually, Liberf came back to himself and immediately stopped Roan.

"What is it?" Roan asked with an annoyed expression. "Have you decided to take the offer? In that case, leave the request in the Mission Hall, and I'll pass by to register it in my name."

That's why Roan didn't like when those three simply appeared there, ordering him to come along. To get a helper, one had to go through the process of posting it in the Mission Hall's helper board. That way, both sides would need to fulfill their agreement, not to mention that half of the payment was given straight away.

"Hmph!" Liberf snorted after hearing that. "Young Master Kihin found out your healing and good comprehension abilities. Instead of charging for this service, you should happily come and help him. It's an honor to serve him as he is the great-grandson of Core Elder Tumao."

"Who the hell are those guys?" Roan couldn't care less. "I have no use for that 'honor' of yours to start with. I have better things to do. If you want my services, it'll cost 30000 Merit Points per day, with the task registered in the Mission Hall." It wasn't like Roan didn't expect some to act high and mighty due to their positions and background, so he was prepared for it. Besides, he could use Etherian's name in case things got out of control.

Liberf couldn't help but stop Roan by holding his shoulder when he tried to leave. However, Roan just glanced at him in response. "What? Are you going to force me? Here? In the Sacred Land?"

By taking the Sacred Land's teleport formations and using Liberf's credentials, it didn't take long for Roan's group to arrive in the Core Sector. The residential area there wasn't too far either. It's just that each home for the Core Disciples was ridiculously big. One of those would fit at least ten residences the same size as the one Roan lives in. 'So useless...'

The worker in the house quickly received Roan's group and brought them to the living room where Kihin was waiting. "So you're finally here, huh? Because it's against the rules to enter the private rooms in the cultivation repositories while someone is there, my people had to wait for you there for a long time, you know?"

Roan didn't seem to care much about it. "It's not like I can read minds and guess that someone is outside."

"True," Kihin answered. "Now then, let's get straight to the point. I heard from Calamara, or better yet, from someone who knows him, how you helped improve his Mantis Blade. I didn't take it to heart at first until Calamara used it once during a demonstration battle. I just so happened to get the recording from it and had to admit the changes to the skill were nearly miraculous. Too bad that guy doesn't want to share the secret at all. What about you, would you tell me what has been done?"

Roan shook his head, saying, "I'm under a Soul Binding Contract, so I can't say anything."

Kihin nodded in response. "I expected as much. Anyway, it wasn't because of the Mantis Blade that I called you out. Instead, it was because Calamara insisted that you were the reason behind the improvement. He boasted about how you could heal yourself from almost anything, even shattered meridians. Not to mention your so-called ridiculously high comprehension ability. Are those words true?"

Roan pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Whether it is true or not won't matter. You won't believe it until you see it for yourself anyway."

Kihin couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha! I like you already! That's correct. I want you to be my helper for a new skill I'm creating from scratch. What do you say?"

Roan didn't mind, saying, "Depending on the payment, everything can be negotiated."
