With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 640: The fated day (21)

There was a long silence that hung in the air as Lin Fan didn't say a single thing.

The expressions on the faces of the old master and the third master changed several times before the old master finally said, "You're bluffing, you wouldn't do that. There's no way that you can do something like that."

Near the end, the tone of his voice changed.

It was as if he was doing all that he could to reject this.

After all, if it was true, then it was just too terrifying.

They had never heard of an ability like this.

Hearing this, Lin Fan said with a smile, "Of course it's true, but it doesn't matter if you believe it or not." His eyes narrowed to reveal a cold look as he said, "Does it?"

Both the old master and the third master felt another chill run down their spines when they heard this, but neither of them were able to refute this. After all, it was true that they weren't able to do anything against it.

Even now, Lin Fan was controlling their bodies with just a single thought.

If he wanted them to talk, they would talk. If he wanted them to be silent, they had no choice but to be silent.

This feeling of powerlessness was frustrating, but there was nothing that they could do.

After all, they weren't in control of their bodies at all.

Lin Fan saw that they weren't saying anything, so he decided that it was time to end this.

He had gotten enough revenge for the original owner of this body and it was time to move on. There were other things that were waiting for him in the future, so there was no need to care about these people anymore.

Lin Fan turned back to Lin Li Zi and said, "How about it, do you want to be the head of the Lin Family or not?"

Lin Li Zi had been silent the whole time with a look of thought on her face.

There was a part of her that wanted to do this, but there was also a part of her that was hesitating on this matter.

It was partly because this was the Lin Family, the family that had abandoned her and had tortured her for all those years. She didn't want to keep using this name even if it was a completely new family that was taking over.

But that wasn't the main reason why she didn't want to do this.

The main reason why she didn't want to do this was…

"What are your plans for the Lin Family?" Lin Li Zi normally wouldn't have asked this, but she knew that she had to ask this.

She knew that if she was to be the family head, she would at least have to take responsibility for the others. So while she didn't know what Lin Fan wanted, she had to make sure that he wasn't planning to hurt the others.

Lin Fan revealed a faint smile the moment that he heard this.

He looked at Lin Li Zi with an appreciative look.

He hadn't expected her to ask this, but he was definitely happy to see her ask this.

After all, it meant that she had the intelligence and resolve to be the head of the new Lin Family.

That was what he wanted from her.

Lin Fan looked into her determined eyes and calmly said, "I don't want anything from the Lin Family. I just want to create a new Lin Family to fill in the power gap that will arise from the destruction of the old Lin Family, nothing more, nothing less."

Lin Li Zi looked at him with a look that seemed like she didn't believe him, but Lin Fan didn't care.

He just took out the token that he had been given as the envoy from the government and said, "I work for the government after all, so naturally I wouldn't want any chaos to occur in the Mu Empire's territory."

Lin Li Zi didn't really know what this token was, but the expressions of the old master and the third master changed right away.

They recognized the symbol of the Mu Empire, so they knew that a token with this symbol was not simple. It was definitely enough to represent the will of the central government…

So it turned out that the government already knew about their movements and had sent Lin Fan after them…

Then did it matter if Lin Fan came or not?

Eventually, they would have been found out and their plan would have failed.

It seemed that they were nothing more than frogs in a well.

Realizing this, there was a feeling of deep despair that was in their hearts.

Lin Li Zi eventually gave a small nod to show that she understood, but her eyes made it clear that she still had her doubts.

Lin Fan didn't care as he put the token away and then raised his hand to show something.

Lin Li Zi looked down to see that there was a black worm in his hand.

After a moment of silence, she reached out as if she was about to take that black worm.

Lin Fan revealed a faint smile as he said, "What are you doing?"

Lin Li Zi looked at him with a brow raised in confusion as she said, "Don't you want me to eat this like the other one?"

Lin Fan's smile became wider before shaking his head and saying, "This isn't for you to eat, this is just to show you something."

Lin Li Zi nodded to show that she understood, but it was clear by the confused look on her face that she didn't really understand.

Lin Fan gave another sigh before turning to the old master and third master.

When he raised the black worm in front of them, the two of them couldn't help flinching.

They didn't know why this was the case, but they couldn't stop themselves from flinching.

After showing this, Lin Fan said to Lin Li Zi, "Do you see that? This is how I'm controlling them. It's the black worm that I had them swallow earlier."

As soon as they heard this, both the old master and the third master looked like they wanted to die. They had thought that the black worm was nothing more than a poison to make them obedient, but it turned out that it was the very thing that was controlling them…

They really didn't know how to feel about this.

Lin Fan then continued by saying, "The black worm that I had you swallow is stronger than the black worm inside of them, so it allows you to command them. As long as you have that black worm inside of you, you'll be able to command the two of them."

The old master and the third master immediately looked like they thought of something before closing their eyes.

It seemed that they were trying to sense something inside of them, but Lin Fan just ignored them.

Lin Li Zi looked down at her own body before saying, "Then can you also control me with the same black worm?"

Lin Fan didn't answer this question and instead asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Are you scared? Do you regret it now?"

Lin Li Zi didn't answer right away, but she eventually shook her head and said, "No, I don't regret it and I'm not scared."

Lin Fan gave an approving nod before saying, "As long as you don't do anything that goes against me or the Mu Empire, I have no reason to do anything to you. After all, we're family."

Lin Li Zi couldn't help revealing a strange look when she heard this.

The fact that they were related still didn't really sink in even though she had heard his confession earlier.

She found it a bit hard to accept that she was related to him since he was so strong, so strong that she couldn't even believe that she would be associated with him, let alone be related to him by blood.

But for some reason, she couldn't help feeling a bit warm when she heard him say this.

As well, there was a bit of a complicated feeling that filled when he said this.

This was a feeling that she really didn't understand, but it was there in her heart.

But she was still able to accept his answer.

At the very least, it explained why he was doing all of this.

Lin Fan saw the look on her face and could guess what she was thinking, so he gave her space as he turned around to look at the old master and the third master.

The two of them just had completely defeated looks on their faces, but they still reacted when they saw Lin Fan turning to face them.

Taking a deep breath, the old master said, "Fan'er, just let me go. I don't need the Lin Family, I don't need anything, I just want to live. We are still family, you can at least give me that, right?"

Lin Fan shook his head before turning to look at the third master.

When the third master saw him looking at him, he said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you won already? Just get it over with, you won't get me to beg."

Lin Fan gave a shrug since he didn't care about that in the first place.

With a snap of his fingers, the eyes of the old master and the third master dimmed.
