After taking care of the bodies, the only thing that they had to do was leave behind clues leading away from the dungeon town. However, that was a simple matter and it didn’t take them long to finish that.
Then after giving some more money to the village chief to help cement their story and to forget everything that had happened, they headed back to the dungeon town.
Lin Fan knew that this matter with the Sheng Family wouldn’t be over since there was still Xiao Yue’s revenge, but at least for now, he could breathe a sigh of relief as they would get a period of peace.
After returning to the town, all of them went about their daily lives as if nothing had happened.
Of course, Tian Tian also asked Tian Xue back in Sunset City to keep an eye out for any Sheng Family reinforcements that might show up. Tian Xue didn’t know the reason why she wanted to know this, but since Tian Tian was her little sister, she didn’t question it and chose to help her.
As Lin Fan had expected, there wasn’t a single party from the Sheng Family that had been sent their way. It was as if the Sheng Family didn’t even know about what had happened.
But Lin Fan already knew all of this when he looted the bodies of Yu Song’s group.
Lin Fan had slowly adapted to this world and he understood that this world was a world that ran on the concept of the strong eats the weak.
Since they had planned on killing Xiao Yue, there was no need to show them any mercy. That included the items that they had on them.
The Sheng Family subordinates that they froze first didn’t have much on them. They were just lowly subordinates, so they only had some money and some pills that they kept on their person. Not a single one of them even had a Storage Ring.
But when it came to Yu Song, as a former high ranking servant under young master Sheng, the items that he had were naturally greater than what the subordinates had.
For one, he was someone who possessed a Storage Ring.
Though what was contained in that Storage Ring was pitiful.
There were only a few gold coins left along with some random items that didn’t really have any value. The only thing that seemed like it had some value was a token that had the word “Sheng” on it.
It didn’t take much thinking to understand that this was the token from young master Sheng, the one that Yu Song had used to trick those subordinates of the Sheng Family to follow him. This was also most likely the reason why Yu Song had thought that Lin Fan’s group were assassins from the Sheng Family.
The most likely reason why he had this was because he had stolen it…
This was not something that Lin Fan should keep, but it wasn’t as if there was a place for him to ditch this since he had already brought it back.
So for now, he would seal it inside of the Pet Storage Space.
He had been worried before about keeping things in the Pet Storage Space because the aura of these things might leak out and people would find out about them in his possession, but after testing it with Mu Bao Bao, he found that the Pet Storage Space was completely sealed. There wasn’t even a single trace of aura that was released from the Pet Storage Space, or at least a Golden Core Realm Cultivator like Mu Bao Bao couldn’t sense anything.
So with that assurance, Lin Fan felt much more assured to keep the token in the Pet Storage Space.
It was currently morning and Lin Fan had just come down to breakfast when he suddenly received a special message.
This wasn’t a special message that someone had sent to his house, but rather it was a mental message that Rokuko sent through their connection.
“Master, there’s a dungeon core conference called! I need you to come here right away!” Rokuko said in a very worried voice.
Lin Fan’s face couldn’t help filling with confusion as he silently thought, “Dungeon conference? What is that?”
But he could hear how anxious Rokuko’s voice was, so he figured that it was better not to delay and he headed off to the dungeon right away.
The girls that he had been having breakfast with saw this sudden change in his expression and couldn’t help asking, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Lin Fan just said with a faint smile, “It’s fine, there’s something that I remembered that I need to take care of.” Then after thinking for a bit, he added, “I don’t know when I’ll be back, but I’ll try to come back for dinner.”
The girls were clearly worried, but they knew that since he wasn’t willing to share what he was doing, he must have his reason. The only thing that they could do was trust him, so they wished him luck and asked him to come back as quickly as possible.
Lin Fan didn’t take the main route, but rather he went to a storage warehouse and took a secret passage to the dungeon.
The dungeon town’s main attraction had pulled in quite a few people and even this early in the morning, there were still people headed into the dungeon. There were even people that were camping in the dungeon to earn as much as possible.
So with the corridors of the dungeon filled, it wasn’t as if Lin Fan could take the main entrance to see Rokuko.
Of course, Lin Fan had already taken this into account when he had made the dungeon, so he had already planned this secret passage. This secret passage was one that was separated from the main dungeon, but it would allow him to reach the hidden second floor where Rokuko was.
The design of the dungeon was that the floor that the mercenaries explored was the first floor, but that wasn’t connected to the second floor directly. The central area that Moo guarded was considered the final area of the dungeon and anyone that cleared the area could be considered to have finished the dungeon.
However, that didn’t mean that there was only a single floor to this dungeon.
There was a secret second floor that only had a few secret passages connecting to it. The secret passages were hidden in the most remote corners of the dungeon and could be closed instantly by Lin Fan, so there was no danger of enemies reaching the second floor.
That was important because the dungeon core was actually hidden past the second floor.
There was a third floor that was even more hidden than the second floor that could only be reached from the second floor where the dungeon core was hidden. The second floor itself was used more as Rokuko’s room, as well as a control room for the entire dungeon.
When Lin Fan arrived, he found that Rokuko was spinning around on her pedestal, looking very worried.
Lin Fan couldn’t help being surprised since he had never seen her acting like this before. It must have something to do with the “dungeon conference” that she had mentioned before…
But before Lin Fan could say anything, Rokuko already noticed him approaching which wasn’t strange since he was in the dungeon that she had complete control over.
As soon as she noticed him approaching, she said in an anxious voice, “What took you so long? We’re going to be late to the conference!”
Lin Fan raised a brow and he couldn’t help asking, “Does it really matter if we go to this conference or not? Not to mention, does it really matter if we’re just a bit late?”
Rokuko became even more agitated when she heard this. She immediately raised her voice and said, “Of course it matters if we go or not! This is a gathering of all the dungeon cores in the world! How could it not be important?!”
Lin Fan revealed a confused look as he asked, “What is this conference? You still haven’t told me this yet.”
Rokuko became a bit stunned when she heard this and gave an “oh” sound as if she had suddenly realized something.
That was right, Lin Fan wasn’t a dungeon core, but rather a dungeon master. So he didn’t know what this dungeon conference was.
Rokuko took a deep breath to calm down before saying, “The dungeon conference is a yearly meeting that’s held by the creator of us dungeon cores. We go there to share strategies with each other and to exchange information. As well, we get to meet the creator of us dungeon cores, so it’s like going to meet father.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help raising a brow as he asked, “Then why didn’t you tell me about this earlier? Also, why are you so excited about it?”
Rokuko said in an awkward voice, “Well, I’m the newest dungeon core and I haven’t existed for that long, so this is my first time going. I’ve only ever read about this on the dungeon core forums before and I only received the notification this morning that it would be held today.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help shaking his head with a helpless smile when he heard this.
But before he could say anything, he saw that there was a notification that appeared in front of him.
It was different from the usual notification that he received, this was a notification from the Dungeon Master System.
It told him to prepare to be transported to the dungeon conference and there was also a countdown to the teleportation.
Once the countdown was over, both Lin Fan and Rokuko disappeared from where they had been standing previously.
