Chapter 460: Chapter 57: Purple Equipment Drops_4

Actually, the loot ended up being quite substantial.

In the end, Xiao Jie received 122 taels of silver, adding to the 480 taels in his bag, making a total of 600 taels.

He gave Chen Tianwen 300 taels and still had 300 taels left.

Hahaha, I finally have money, Xiao Jie thought delightfully.

The hardships of battle faded away in an instant.

After sharing the treasure, it was time to return to Jumu City to turn in the quest.

He called Ying Baiyu, and the group headed towards Jumu City.

The journey was quiet.

When they arrived in Jumu City by noon, looking at the towering trees around them, Ying Baiyu was overwhelmed with emotions; they were finally back.

The others were also quite relieved. They had made it back safely, and though the battle had been perilous yet unfateful, it had still been exhausting for everyone.

"I think we should avoid attacking such high-level bosses in the future; it’s too dangerous."

"Indeed, although the rewards are substantial, the risks are huge as well, and honestly, the rewards aren’t that much greater than those from normal bosses."

"I agree, bosses over level 20 are easy to defeat, we should pick the smaller ones in the future."

Listening to the discussion, Xiao Jie knew they were hinting at him.

"I’m going to turn in the final quest now, thanks a lot everyone. If it weren’t for you, this quest wouldn’t have been easy. Whenever you’re in Jiangbei City, I’ll treat you all to a meal. If there’s anything I can help with, just ask as long as it’s within my capacity."

"Haha, sure thing, it was just a little extra effort."

"No need to be polite, we’re friends."

"Brother Sui Feng, you can skip the meal, but I actually do have a favor to ask," the others had courteously declined, but Jiu Jianxian straightforwardly initiated.

Huh? Xiao Jie was taken aback, he wasn’t joking when he said they could turn to him for help, helping friends was normal, and he owed them a favor that he would eventually have to repay.

But he didn’t expect Jiu Jianxian to ask for a favor so soon.

However, surprised as he might be, he couldn’t refuse to help.

"Tell me, if I can help, I definitely will."

"I want to learn a Supreme Sword Skill; at level 40, I’ll advance to Sword Saint. Could you help me sort it out?" Jiu Jianxian asked with a smile.

Xiao Jie was at a loss for words; did his fellow think a Supreme Sword Skill was so easy to learn?

"You know Hao Mie is a Martial Saint, right? Why don’t you ask him?"

"My Supreme Fist Technique was acquired by looting a boss with a team; it cost me over ten million and isn’t a standard reference."

Jiu Jianxian sighed, "Now there aren’t many decent freelance groups, most skilled players have been recruited by big guilds, it’s practically impossible to organize a high-end team, so I have to ask you for help. As far as I know, you learned your Supreme Sword Technique before joining a guild, right? Could you teach me how to do it? I know it’s a bit much to ask, as such information is incredibly valuable. I wouldn’t expect you to help for nothing; I have two inner cores that I previously acquired. If you help me learn the Supreme Sword Skill, consider these two inner cores as my consultancy fee."

Damn, was that purchased for my consultation?

Xiao Jie suddenly understood; buying the inner cores was his way of asking for help.

After hesitating, he realized he couldn’t really decline, but his acquisition of the Supreme Sword Skill had also been a stroke of luck.

He thought for a moment and figured giving some advice wouldn’t be an issue.

"You’re asking me to help you learn, but I actually don’t have a solution. My ability to learn the Supreme Sword Technique was due to fate. However, I can offer you some advice or a strategic direction.

If you want to learn a Supreme Sword Skill, there are basically two methods: a Skill Book or an NPC.

You can check the auction house for the Skill Book, though chances are slim. If it’s about learning from an NPC, you first need to find an NPC who knows the Supreme Sword Technique, preferably a ’Sword Saint’ or similar, and then try to increase your Favorability to 100.

Raising Favorability with such a Worldly Expert NPC is difficult, and they will test you, but this is probably the most reliable method to learn the Supreme Sword Technique.

Besides that..."

Xiao Jie paused, as he thought of the sword marks etched into the stone wall on Konglao Mountain.

That could potentially have something to do with the Supreme Sword Technique.

But the exact reward that object provides is hard to predict, and it might just be swordsmanship experience, requiring extremely high comprehension; it’s better not to make any rash promises.

Jiu Jianxian listened excitedly.

Finally, someone provided a clear direction.

Actually, this guide was very simple, but without relevant experience, one could be utterly lost.

"I understand, I’ll try to find a Sword Saint NPC. If I run into trouble, can I contact you again? Take these two inner cores; consider them as a pre-paid consultancy fee."

"No, I can’t accept unearned rewards. I haven’t made much effort."

Although he desired the inner cores, Xiao Jie was aware of the saying, "He who takes the shard is banner bound," and if Jiu Jianxian couldn’t continue with his quest, he’d have to assist.

"Let’s do this; keep them for now, and once you’ve learned the Supreme Sword Technique, you can send them to me. If you can’t learn it, let it be."

"That works too."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Xiao Jie and Ying Baiyu headed towards Xiao Yue Palace.

It was time to turn in the quest.
