After another few seconds to calm himself down, she gave a nod and said, "Alright, not a problem."

She said a few things to Lala on the side who turned to look at Lin Fan with a surprised look, but there was also a trace of admiration in those eyes, as well as something else.

Then Tian Tian turned back to Lin Fan and said, "You'll be raised to C Rank for this mission and because of your contributions, we've given you special permission to take B Rank missions." Then after a pause, she added, "We would give you permission to take A Rank missions, but those are a bit.."

It wasn't hard for Lin Fan to understand the difficulties that Tian Tian was facing. Just even helping him get permission to take on B Rank missions was already helping him plenty.

After all he was certain that if it wasn't for Tian Tian, there was no way for him to rise through the ranks so quickly.

But what surprised Lin Fan the most was the trace of spiritual energy that he felt from Tian Tian.

It wasn't hard for him to tell that Tian Tian was also a cultivator from this, but the power behind the spiritual energy also told him that she was someone whose cultivation level was higher than his.

But that surprised him even more since a proud cultivator like this was willing to work as a receptionist.

It seemed like the influence and power of the Mercenary Guild wasn't small.

Lin Fan just gave a nod and said, "That's not a problem. I have to thank you for doing all this for me."

Tian Tian revealed a faint smile when she heard this and she leaned forward a bit as she placed her hand on Lin Fan's hand.

When he felt her hand touching his, it was almost as if there was a bolt of lightning that ran through him.

After placing her hand on his, she said with that charming smile, "Well I'm expecting great things from you."

Then with a wink, she stood up and turned around to head into the back.

Lin Fan's mind was blank the moment he saw this.

He could naturally feel the sting of the jealous looks hitting his back, but he didn't care about them at all.

This was it, this was the mature charm that Xiao Yue and Lala didn't have!

With her appearance, with just a single pair of glasses, she would have been the perfect example of a private secretary that man dreamed of.

He really wanted her for his harem..

And it seemed like he had a chance..especially that wink at the end..

He was filled with excitement when he thought about it.

It was at this time that Lala came back from what she was doing.historical

Seeing that Lin Fan was in a daze, she called out to him, "Hey, what's wrong?"

Lin Fan was pulled out of his daze when he heard this voice and when he looked at Lala, he couldn't help revealing a slightly disappointed look. After all, while Lala was beautiful, she couldn't compare to the look that Tian Tian had.

The look that she gave off in the end was the sweet next door neighbour girl instead of a sexy mature lady.

When Lala saw the way that Lin Fan looked at her, she couldn't help feeling a bit displeased as she asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Lin Fan could easily hear the displeased tone in her voice and he quickly fixed his expression before saying with a cough, "No, nothing at all." Then after a pause to fix his mentality, Lin Fan said, "Is there something I can help you with?"

Lala narrowed her eyes to glare at Lin Fan for a few seconds since she felt that something was off, but then her eyes relaxed as she took out several coins that she placed on the table.

Lin Fan looked at the coins with a confused look, but Lala said, "This is your reward for the scouting mission."

Lin Fan then revealed a surprised look.

The scouting mission's reward was only a few gold coins, but there were clearly at least fifty gold coins here which was far more than what he expected to earn. So he couldn't help asking, "Isn't this too much?"

Lala couldn't help smiling when she saw the look on Lin Fan's face before saying, "Call it a bonus from the guild. After all, the item that you brought back is quite special."

Lin Fan just simply gave a nod in response to this since he didn't want to get into details of the piece of the altar that he brought back. That was a piece of a god's altar, naturally it was something special.

But if he got caught up in this, he would get involved in something that was clearly more dangerous than it was worth, so he wisely chose to avoid getting himself involved.

After putting the coins away, Lin Fan was about to leave before Lala said, "Now that you have some money, are you going to take me out on that dinner date?"

Lin Fan was surprised when he heard this, but then he shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I'm a little busy right now, so how about another day?"

He certainly wanted to have Lala join his harem, but right now, there was another lady waiting for him, so he could only postpone that date with Lala for now.

Lala saw the look on his face and chose not to ask any further. She just said, "Alright, but you still owe me one date." After saying this, she didn't forget to wink at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing an awkward smile when he saw this.

It seemed like he really was getting lucky today. It wasn't just Yue Lan or Tian Tian, even Lala was joining in the fun.

Not to mention the fun that he had last night..

After thinking about it for a bit, Lin Fan shook his head and turned to the mission board.

The most important thing that he had to do right now was earn enough money to help Yue Lan pay her debt within the week. After that, he would have some fun..

Lin Fan looked over the mission board at the various different B Ranked quests and found that almost all of them were hunting quests.

It seemed that once someone reached a certain level of power, they were expected to use that power for certain things.

Still, Lin Fan couldn't complain since the rewards for each hunting quest were quite lucrative. On average, each hunting mission paid around a thousand gold coins.

This really was the difference between being lower ranked quests and higher ranked quests.

Lin Fan also couldn't help peeking at the A Rank quests and he was shocked by how much compensation they offered. On average, each A Rank quest paid around ten thousand gold coins.

It could be seen just how valued the A Rank mercenaries were.

However, Lin Fan wasn't a fool and he knew why that was the case.

The targets for the A Rank quests were all at least in the Fourth Qi Condensation Realm, which was a realm higher than him. So unless he was crazy, he wasn't someone that wanted to throw away their lives.

Then above the A Rank quests were the S Rank quests.

However, S Rank quests no longer paid in gold coins, but rather another currency that was far superior to gold coins. S Rank quests paid in spirit stones, which was the currency of cultivators.

To even become an S Rank mercenary, it was necessary to be a cultivator.

But Lin Fan didn't set his goals that high just yet since he was well aware of his own level of power.

He didn't overreach and think that he could handle A Rank quests because he knew he couldn't. So after honestly looking over the various B Rank quests, Lin Fan picked out one that had a decent target, then he also picked out a herb collecting quest that was near the location that the target was in.

Since he was going to do the quests, he might as well try to do as many as he could in the same area to maximize his profits.

So after picking out these two quests, Lin Fan brought them over to the counter where Lala was waiting.

When Lala saw the quests that Lin Fan brought over, she couldn't help knitting her brows slightly as her eyes filled with a bit of worry.

She knew how powerful the target for the quest that Lin Fan was trying to take was, so she couldn't help worrying about Lin Fan since she felt that he was rushing into this. She looked at Lin Fan with a worried look and said, "Mister Lin, maybe you want to take another quest? I think this one might be a bit too difficult for you."

Lin Fan could see that goodwill in her eyes, so he wasn't offended by this. However, he had also made up his mind, so he said, "It'll be fine."

Lala knitted her brows more when she heard this and she narrowed her eyes to look at him, but then those eyes immediately opened wide in surprise.

She actually couldn't sense his level of cultivation!

She had been able to sense it just yesterday, but now..she actually couldn't see through him at all.

That meant that in just a single day, he had broken through to a higher level of cultivation than her!

After being surprised for a bit, she gave a helpless sigh before saying, "Alright, I'll register these quests for you."

Once she was done, she came back and handed the receipts to Lin Fan before leaning forward to give him a peek while also saying by his ear, "Don't forget that you owe me a date."

Lin Fan's face immediately turned red when he saw this and he awkwardly walked out of the Mercenary Guild.

Even if he was no longer a virgin, that didn't mean that he wasn't awkward.

After all, inside of that handsome exterior was the same awkward adult from Earth.
