Reincarnation of the Strongest Sword God - Rewritten

Alternate Meetings

Outside of the dungeon, a vast number of players were gathered to form parties. Crowds could be seen left and right, gathered around the party leaders, waiting to be reviewed to see if they are able to join.

As Shi Feng and Cola left the dungeon, they both were eyed by the players.

"Look, they left the Hell Dungeon in under 15 minutes. They must have some useful information. Let's talk to them."

"They are probably from a well-known guild. You won't get anything out of them."

"Yeah, you're probably right. They won't say anything until their guilds finish the dungeons."

Cola was seen sweating, not knowing how to respond. He can't possibly say that they already cleared the dungeon, but if he did, he would be asked how and he didn't know what to say.

"I got carried by this man? I sat back and watched him do all the work? What if I say something that will offend him?"

Cola remained silent and let Shi Feng do all the work.

"Cola, you're free to do whatever you want. Don't forget to contact the person I gave you if you need anything. Take care," Shi Feng said as he disbanded the party and headed towards a crowd, where he recognized a familiar face.

Cola simply nodded and left towards Red Leaf Town, trying to find a place to sit down and process what just happened in the last hour or so of his life.

Shi Feng walked towards a party where he could hear a female voice yelling "Three looking for three! No noobs!"

Approaching it steadily, some players eyed him down.

"What, is he trying to join the Goddess's group? I wonder what they will say about him." "He will get refused. We all were refused."

Shi Feng didn't say anything and approached the woman who was announcing her party. "Hello. I wish to speak to Miss Gentle Snow in private. I have a gift for her."

Xiao Yue'er was looking at this new person and didn't know what to say, to which Zhao Yueru intervined. "You? Have a gift for Snow? What could you have that would interest her?"

"Sigh. Same old story with her." Shi Feng thought, exhaling.

"Alright. I'll have you look at this, then tell me if it's worth your while." Shi Feng said as he traded an alchemy recipe to her.

Upon seeing the recipe, Zhao Yueru froze, stared at Shi Feng and stared at the recipe once more.

"May I speak to her now or do I have to force my way through?" Shi Feng said with a calm voice. "Y-y-yes... You may talk to her..."

Without saying anything else, he approached Gentle Snow and asked for a couple minutes of her time, to which she accepted.

"What did you give to Yueru? Gentle Snow asked.

"It's just an Alchemy recipe. I obtained it relatively easily from the dungeon."

"And you offered that as a gift? What do you want to gain from this?"

"Nothing but benefits for the both of us. You see, I intend to create partnerships with guilds and I need resources and people in the future to clear some dungeons. Ouroboros might come in handy until I am able to do so myself. What do you say?"

"Yourself? Do you think you're capable of clearing dungeons alone?" Snow asked with a mocking tone.

"Indeed. I just recently cleared the Hell Mode of Deathly Forest all by myself and that recipe is proof of my actions. Would you like another gift? I have plenty to spare." Shi Feng said as he retrieved a cloth skirt.
