With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 500 A New Dawn

?

There was silence that followed after Emperor Mu said this.

Both the fourth prince and Mu Bao Bao looked at him with varying levels of surprise.

Only Lin Fan was completely calm during this.

The fourth prince had pure shock on his face, but Mu Bao Bao had a complicated look along with that shocked look.

She still didn't know how to feel about his father of hers.

She definitely disliked him because of what happened with the Love Sect, but he was her father in the end. At the same time, he was her only link to where her mother was…

Even if she hated her father, that didn't mean that she hated her mother.

She still wanted to meet her mother, wherever she was out there.

Seeing the looks on their faces, Emperor Mu said, "I can't tell you where I will be going, but I can tell you that I will be going to see your mother."

This time, both the fourth prince and Mu Bao Bao couldn't help knitting their brows.

Even Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows slightly, though it was for a different reason than the two of them.

He just didn't think that Emperor Mu would tell them about this.

He thought that he would hide the matter about their mother until it was time so that they wouldn't be distracted with it while working on the Mu Empire.

In the end, he just couldn't understand what Emperor Mu was thinking.

Mu Bao Bao finally said, "Where is she?"

The fourth prince was surprised that she would suddenly ask this, but then he turned to look at Emperor Mu as he waited for his answer.

But this time, Emperor Mu shook his head and said, "I can't tell you."

As soon as he said this, Mu Bao Bao suddenly stood up. There was a sword that appeared in her hand that she pointed in Emperor Mu's face.

Then in a cold voice, she said, "You better tell me, or else."

But Emperor Mu's expression didn't even change in the face of this sword.

He just calmly looked at the sword pointed in his face without saying a single word.

In the end, Mu Bao Bao wasn't able to go through with it.

It wasn't that she wasn't willing to hurt him, but she knew that she needed him if she wanted to know where her mother was. So in the end, she had no choice but to keep him unharmed for now.

Seeing all of this, Lin Fan decided that he should get involved to defuse the tension.

If he left things as they were, they would just get worse.

So he came forward and said, "Now, now, let's all calm down. I'm sure that there must be a reason why he can't say anything, right?"

Mu Bao Bao turned to look at Lin Fan, but the look in her eyes was anything but understanding…In fact, it was as if she could see something.

Then all of a sudden, she said, "You know something, don't you?"

Lin Fan couldn't help jolting when he realized how sharp Mu Bao Bao's senses were.

Just from these few words, she could already tell that he knew something that she wasn't telling him.

In truth though, this was just a woman's intuition.

If their man was hiding something from them, they would just instinctively know that they were hiding something.

Lin Fan did his best to act like he wasn't bothered by this, but it was already too late since she had already seen his tremble.

So Mu Bao Bao turned the sword to point it at him.

But instead of pointing at his head, she pointed it much lower.

When Lin Fan saw where the sword was pointing, he wanted to tremble, but he had to hold himself back or he would have poked something that was very important to him…

So Lin Fan looked up at Mu Bao Bao and said, "We can talk this out, there's no need for violence…"

But his voice trailed off when he saw the way that Mu Bao Bao was looking at him.

It was clear that she wasn't planning on negotiating with him.

His only choices were to tell the truth or…

But he chose to go against this in the end and said, "There's a reason that I can't tell you and I hope that you can trust me in this."

He just calmly looked right into her eyes with that serious look.

When Mu Bao Bao saw this, she couldn't help being taken aback.

In the end, she couldn't help turning away with a blush on her face because…he was too handsome like this.

It really wasn't fair when he acted this way.

So she even told him, "It's not fair when you act like this."

Lin Fan just revealed a bitter smile and said, "I know, but I have no choice. You should know how serious it is if I even act like this."

Mu Bao Bao looked right at Lin Fan for a bit before slowly giving a nod.

Then she moved forward again before taking him in her arms. However, as she was holding him, Lin Fan could feel a set of teeth biting him on his shoulder.

She didn't bite hard, but she did bite enough that it did hurt him.

But he just accepted it without a single word since he knew that these were her love nibbles.

As Emperor Mu watched this, he couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.

This was the look that every parent had when their daughters grew up and started dating people. They didn't want their daughters to grow up, but they knew that it would happen one day…

Still, it hurt his heart seeing her like this.

The fourth prince who had been ignored had a very complicated look on his face.

It seemed that everyone already knew many things except for him. He was the only one that had been kept in the dark the entire time.

As the only person who didn't know a thing, it was hard for him to not feel conflicted.

After a long pause, Emperor Mu said, "I will be leaving with Eunuch Gong, so you will need to find a new protector." After another pause, he said, "I wouldn't trust Elder Jian's group. I would find a new protector from somewhere else, though I don't know where you would get one."

Eunuch Gong was the only Soul Formation Realm Cultivator that followed the Mu Royal Family.

The other Soul Formation Realm Cultivators of the Mu Royal Family were the ancestors that stayed in the depths of the palace. They would not move unless the Mu Empire itself was in danger, so there was no way that they would follow Mu Bao Bao around to protect her.

Mu Bao Bao might be in the Golden Core Realm, but that was only powerful among the lower generation.

If she met some powerful figure from the older generation, she would be dead.

That was the case even with a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator, let alone someone in the Soul Formation Realm.

So she needed someone to protect her…

After thinking for a bit, she suddenly asked, "What about General Lu?"

"General Lu?" Emperor Mu repeated before slowly giving a nod while muttering, "He's your mother's servant and has raised you since you were young, so I'm certain that he'll protect you no matter what. There's no need to doubt his loyalty since he's absolutely loyal to your mother…"

But then after letting his voice trail off for a bit, Emperor Mu added, "The problem is that he's not that strong. He's only in the Nascent Soul Realm, so in a pinch, he won't be able to do much."

Emperor Mu turned to look at Lin Fan and said, "You'll have to develop your sect quickly and become a form of support for Bao Bao."

Lin Fan just slowly gave a nod.

Even if Emperor Mu hadn't said this, he was already planning on doing this.

But the fact that he had said it made Mu Bao Bao displeased.

She turned around and said, "You still haven't sent the resources that you promised to the Love Sect yet. Are you going back on your promise now?"

Emperor Mu revealed a bitter smile before saying, "Did you not check with your third assistant? I left the entire matter up to her to take care of."

Mu Bao Bao couldn't help revealing a surprised look before shaking her head.

Emperor Mu gave a sigh before saying, "It's all been prepared and they will start moving things over in a month. As for the disciples, it will take a bit longer since we can't just move people freely. We have been gathering people, but it'll take at least six months to get everyone that you wanted to Dungeon City."

Both Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao couldn't help revealing surprised looks when they heard this.

They had thought that Emperor Mu would completely forget about this matter and would even go back on it.

They never thought that he would have already prepared everything like this.

Mu Bao Bao just gave a slight nod before tilting her head away.

But Lin Fan gave a nod to Emperor Mu to show his appreciation.

Emperor Mu revealed one more smile before saying with a serious look, "I'm leaving the Mu Empire in your hands. I hope that it will prosper and you will be able to help me one day."

Both Mu Bao Bao and the fourth prince knitted their brows when they heard this.

Lin Fan just gave a simple nod.
