With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 305 Choice? Order?

Lin Fan and the two girls arrived at the first inn, the one that he had left to Duanmu Ming Yue.

This was also where they were currently hosting the envoy.

The envoy had requested a meeting with Lin Fan and had been waiting here for him.

Actually, the envoy had tried to go find Lin Fan, but Lin Fan had people stop the envoy before having them tell him that he would come see him personally.

The compromise that the envoy had made after getting a promise that Lin Fan was coming soon was that he would only wait fifteen minutes for Lin Fan.

Ten minutes had already passed.

But Lin Fan didn't mind it since he had been keeping an eye on the envoy the entire time. He could see that even though the envoy acted that way, he would be willing to wait longer since this concerned his benefits as well.

He couldn't just leave without getting an explanation from Lin Fan.

While it wouldn't be good to leave the envoy alone for too long, Lin Fan wanted to leave him alone for a bit so he could stew and calm down. At the same time, Lin Fan was hoping that the envoy would spill a bit about what he was thinking by talking to himself.

Unfortunately, the envoy just sat there in silence.

So Lin Fan didn't feel like it would be good to leave him alone much longer.

Once they arrived, the envoy didn't say a thing as he just sat there. It was as if he was the one who was in a higher position waiting for an explanation from a subordinate.

Lin Fan understood that this was indeed the situation since he was under suspicion for being in collusion with the crown prince.

Anyone would think that after seeing the gift that had been brought.

This was just how valuable that gift is.

Lin Fan could try explaining that he didn't know what this was about either, but it would be impossible to make the envoy believe him.

So the only thing that he could do was double down and find a way to show his fake allegiance to the second prince.

But to Lin Fan's surprise, before he could say a thing, the envoy suddenly raised his hand as if to stop him. However, even after raising his hand, the envoy didn't say anything.

Lin Fan and the two girls just sat there waiting for him to speak.

It was only after another long period of silence that the envoy finally said, "I won't question you, I just want you to prove your allegiance."

Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows when he heard this, but he also didn't say anything as he waited for the envoy to finish.

The envoy took out a piece of paper and put it down on the table in front of him before saying, "These are your orders from the second prince. If you complete this mission, we will consider your allegiance with the second prince."

Lin Fan picked up the piece of paper and when he read it, he couldn't help knitting his brows.

That was because as they had expected, they were orders to kill the crown prince's group that had arrived in the town.

This had been their worst case scenario guess, but it really was this.

The best case scenario was for the envoy to give him some kind of easy proof of allegiance, such as subjugating a beast for the second prince.

But it was the worst case scenario.

If they really did kill the crown prince's group, it would be the end of them.

They would be forever linked to the second prince and would have no choice but to follow the second prince.

At the same time, the second prince would be able to hold this matter over their head, so they would become the slave of the second prince.

It seemed like the second prince was quite ruthless in this matter.

But at this moment, they really didn't have another choice.

While it seemed like the envoy was giving them a choice, he was actually giving them an order.

If they didn't complete it, then…

Lin Fan just nodded and took the piece of paper before leaving the room with the two girls.

The envoy didn't mind since he knew that Lin Fan wouldn't have another choice in this matter. Regardless of whether he took this order or not, it wouldn't affect him since he had done his part.

As they walked out of the inn, the two girls couldn't help revealing worried looks.

That was because they could tell that the look on Lin Fan's face wasn't natural.

Lin Fan had endured a lot today, so he was feeling different from what he normally felt.

Perhaps if this was before, he would have silently taken it and tried to find a way to solve this without much violence.

But this was something that threatened the safety of not only the town that he had built, but also the people that he loved.

He didn't want to be pushed down by these people like this and wanted to do something against all these people who arbitrarily used him for their own gains.

So he was considering…a third option.

But to do that, he would need the help of something that he had kept hidden for a long time and needed to reveal it to the girls.

That was what made him hesitate in the end.

Still, he decided that it would be better for them to know about it. In the future, he would need to use this thing even more, so it would be better if they could help him with this.

After thinking this through, Lin Fan revealed a determined look and said, "Call everyone, I have something to discuss with you all."

Yue Lan and Ming Xin were surprised by this, but they couldn't help feeling a bit assured seeing the look in his eyes.

They wasted no time and gathered everyone in the secret room once again.

…

"I want to take care of both of them and make both of their groups disappear. Once that happens, none of the princes will be able to make a move."

When the girls heard Lin Fan say this, all of them couldn't help knitting their brows.

The ones that were smart knew that he was right.

If they were able to get rid of both of these groups, then all of the princes would back down. But that was only if they were able to keep their involvement in this matter a secret, or else they would be targeted by all the princes.

After all, if they didn't know what took out their subordinates, the princes wouldn't take a risk by sending more people here.

If it wasn't Lin Fan who took care of their subordinates, then there would be another party that was getting involved in this matter.

So of course they wouldn't risk it by sending more people to this place while the situation was still tense in the empire.

But that was all on the premise of not being caught.

A few of them wanted to say something, but before they could, Ming Xin asked, "How are you planning on doing this?"

Lin Fan nodded and said, "We'll set up an ambush for them outside of the town."

Ming Xin and Yue Lan knitted their brows when they heard this.

Perhaps if it was anything else, they would be able to understand what he meant, but this…

This was the most simple plan that they could think of and Lin Fan had proposed it like it was nothing.

They just couldn't understand what Lin Fan was thinking…

Lin Fan could see what they were thinking, so he said with a smile, "Well, let's just say that I have something special planned."

All of the girls couldn't help revealing confused looks when they heard this.

Lin Fan suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go somewhere."

All of them were caught off guard by this sudden action from Lin Fan, but they all stood up and followed him out.

Since it was the middle of the night right now, it was easy for them to make their way undetected to the secret entrance of the dungeon.

When the girls saw this secret entrance for the first time, they couldn't help being shocked by it.

After all, they had been in this town since its formation and they had never known about this secret entrance before. They didn't even know that this secret room that the secret entrance was in even existed.

After making their way into the dungeon, they immediately recognized that this place was the dungeon.

This was a place that was hard to not recognize, but they also had never seen a part of the dungeon like this before.

There were many questions that they wanted to ask, but seeing the look on Lin Fan's face as he led them forward, they kept their questions to themselves.

When they finally arrived at the final room of the dungeon, Lin Fan said, "This is a place that no one else has been before, so I hope that you will all keep this a secret."

All of them looked at each other before responding with nods.

They had never seen Lin Fan act this seriously before, so they couldn't help feeling a bit tense.

Just what was here that made Lin Fan this serious?

When they opened the door, what they saw was a round moon.
