Jiang Dali, sitting outside with his golden knife, had stirred up quite a few mountain bandits and everyone from Dragon Gate Escort Agency.
The people from Dragon Gate Escort Agency were fuming yet dared not speak out as they glared fiercely at Jiang Dali.
The players, on the other hand, let their minds wander wildly, like cats that had slled fish, eager to pounce.
"Just now, those two people who were respectfully welcod by Second Master must be really formidable. Now even the Great Master is standing guard outside. Don’t you think there’s probably so important task coming?"
...
"It’s happening, it’s happening. I thought Black Wind Village was just a tiny force, a stepping stone to join, but now it seems it’s not simple at all—definitely has a powerful backing."
...
"Who knows, there might even be a hidden major force behind it. If we perform well, we might get recomnded to join that hidden force."
...
"I’ve long known our Black Wind Village wasn’t ordinary. Our village chief’s insight is extraordinary. Who among you has seen mountain bandits who can recite secret martial arts manuals from major sects like Shaolin and act so nonchalantly about it? That Great Vajra Palm, I only learned about it recently from ancient texts."
"Instead of just standing around here, we should smarten up and try to ask around, see if there are any tasks available."
Unable to restrain himself, Huakai Jianhong muttered under his breath and, under the surprised yet tense gazes of other players, he actively approached Jiang Dali to see if he could trigger a task.
"Great Master, is there anything you need to do for you?"
All the surrounding players gasped.
Shit, is this guy recklessly brave or just plain stupid?
Daring to step forward and ask about tasks, is he treating the Great Master like a decoration?
"Hmm?"
Jiang Dali coldly glanced at the approaching Huakai Jianhong.
"Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali feels very displeased with your attitude!"
A prompt appeared, causing Huakai Jianhong’s hair to stand on end as sweat instantly ford on his forehead; he hurriedly forced a smile.
"Uh! Great, great master, I an, it’s really hot today, perhaps you need to fan you?"
Jiang Dali was about to scold the player for his ignorance.
But then he thought, not giving these passionately involved guys sothing to do would probably make them very unhappy, unable to feel the warm care of the Black Wind Village Chief.
"Perfect timing. I just had a big fight and my body needs a massage to relax. Give a massage."
"Massage!?" Huakai Jianhong’s eyes widened and narrowed in shock as he suddenly heard the prompt.
"Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali has issued a task ’Serve the Great Master.’
Task type: Individual;
Task requirents: Heartfelt massage for Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali;
Task reward: Massage that makes Black Wind Village Chief Jiang Dali feel comfortable may randomly reward 1 to 50 points of favorability. Note: When favorability with an NPC reaches a certain level, unexpected benefits may occur.
Accept task? If not accepted, you might face scolding from Jiang Dali, reducing favorability."
"Shit!?"
Huakai Jianhong shivered with joy.
Aweso.
It turned out to be a rare task rewarding NPC favorability.
As an experienced professional player, Huakai Jianhong certainly knew how rare and valuable these favorability-rewarding tasks were.
Most tasks only reward cultivation points and potential points—those are the most common rewards. But favorability, especially that of an influential and powerful NPC like Jiang Dali, is extrely difficult to earn.
In an instant, Huakai Jianhong was overjoyed, his mind racing fast.
Connecting the fact that he could greatly increase his favor and possibly learn so authentic Martial Arts from Jiang Dali, he imdiately agreed with exhilaration.
"Your servant will start massaging you right now, Great Master. I guarantee you’ll feel comfortable."
Huakai Jianhong respectfully and joyfully rolled up his sleeves and began massaging Jiang Dali’s legs in front of other players who stared in astonishnt.
The other players weren’t fools either, all smart and cunning. Seeing this, they imdiately realized Huakai Jianhong might have triggered a quest, and it was a simple one at that—to massage the village chief.
Instantly, a group of players rushed over, all looking at Jiang Dali with hopeful and flattering expressions, everyone requesting to massage Jiang Dali. Only two stood still, sowhat hesitant.
The two players exchanged glances, and player A asked, "Why aren’t you going?"
Player B snorted in reply, "I can do other tasks, but serving others, that’s just too deaning, even if it’s for an NPC."
Player A laughed and said, "A kindred spirit indeed, truly a kindred spirit. I’m the sa. I never flatter others, even if it’s the village chief. Don’t expect to breach my bottom line."
"..."
"Zhongyuan Miao Renfeng requests to massage you!"
"Ancient Color Strange People requests to massage you!"
Jiang Dali, watching the ssages pop up one by one, waved casually at the crowd of approaching players, "All of you massage . If you do it well and I feel happy, I might teach you little brats a trick or two."
After he spoke, he glanced at the two players whose expressions suddenly changed.
Little guys, let’s see if you two can really hold back.
At that mont, hearing martial arts might be taught, the two hesitant players beca a bit tempted, their expressions conflicted.
Massage for a chance to learn Martial Arts...
If they didn’t participate while other players learned Martial Arts, wouldn’t they be left behind in an instant?
Player A asked, "Are you sure you’re not going? I think... I should go. Even if it’s deaning, it doesn’t matter if I can learn Martial Arts."
Player B chuckled dryly, "Actually... Although I never flatter others, a bottom line can be crossed occasionally, especially when massaging soone like the village chief—who obviously seems like a Heavenly Emperor. It’s not embarrassing, breaking the bottom line is worth it."
The two exchanged glances and imdiately squeezed through the crowd, struggling to get a spot, turning red in the face and neck in their eagerness to massage Jiang Dali well.
A group of players, while massaging, also let out exaggerated praises.
"So strong, so massive, your biceps are so huge, village chief!"
"Ah! My hand! My hand got bounced back. Your chest muscles are too powerful, village chief!"
"Village chief, even your toenails are so perfect, wow, I’m going to cry, they’re movingly beautiful."
Jiang Dali’s face broke into a satisfied smile.
These players are really teachable.
All are excellent... excellent talents.
At this mont, continuous pop-up notifications erupted in Jiang Dali’s mind.
"Your right arm has been relaxed by the massage, resulting in pleasant feelings, Cultivation Points 1!"
"Your head received effective massage, making your brain more relaxed and comfortable, spirit improved, Cultivation Points 1!"
"Your abdon enjoyed a comfortable massage, Qi-Blood smoother, whole body relaxed, you couldn’t help but let out a fart!"
"Pfft—"
"Ah!~" Jiang Dali flipped over, lying down to enjoy the massage from over a dozen players, sighing with comfort.
In this mont, he truly felt the charm of power, experiencing the bliss of being a big boss.
Lying there, being served by these players who would surely be famous in the Martial World and simultaneously increasing his Cultivation Points.
This was literally lying down and practicing to beco stronger!
No wonder that old monster Ding Chunqiu enjoyed being carried and attended to daily by his disciples—it truly felt aweso.
Perhaps the only downside was that these dozen recruited players were all male; they were strong, but sothing seed missing. Next ti he recruits, he needs to ensure a balance of Yin and Yang...
