With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 648: Exploring another dungeon (1)

After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan said, "I was pulled away by a senior that I'm familiar with to discuss something private."

Though this excuse was just as bad as saying that he had been pulled away by a god, at least it was believable in this cultivation world.

The girls looked at him with looks of doubt, but they slowly gave nods to show that they understood in the end.

After all, they knew that Lin Fan had his secrets and if he wasn't willing to tell them, it was most likely something that he couldn't tell them. Since they were his women, it wasn't as if they would make it hard for him.

Well…to a certain extent.

They were of course unhappy that he couldn't trust them enough to tell them this.

So even if they were sure that he had his reason for doing this, he would be receiving some punishment over the next few days.

Lin Fan could see this in the looks that they gave him, which made him feel a bit bitter.

But he couldn't blame them.

After he took care of this, Lin Fan suddenly said, "There's a place that I want to go."

The girls looked at him with surprised looks when they heard him which confused Lin Fan. After all, he never expected them to look at him like this.

Seeing this, Lin Fan slowly asked, "Is something wrong?"

Yue Lan was the one that spoke for them as she said, "Well, it's strange hearing you say it like this."

Lin Fan was even more confused when he heard this as he didn't understand what she was saying.

Yue Lan saw this look on his face and explained with a faint smile, "Well, you're the city lord, so you can do what you want. You don't really need to explain to us, you can just tell us."

Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a faint smile when he heard this before saying, "Are you sure about that?"

Yue Lan shook her head with a smile before saying, "This is how it is, you don't need to worry about us."

Lin Fan looked at the rest of them and saw that they were all looking at him in the same way.

But for some reason, there was a part of him that was bothered by this.

So in the end, Lin Fan said, "I'm telling you because I want to tell you. Let's just leave it at that."

The girls were surprised to hear this, but they still nodded to show that they understood.

Yue Lan changed the topic by asking, "Where is this place that you want to go?"

Lin Fan didn't answer the question right away and instead asked another question, "Do you have a map of the area around the city?"

Yue Lan was surprised to hear this, but then she pulled out a map from thin air.

Lin Fan wasn't surprised since he already knew that she had this Storage Ring.

In fact, he was the one that had given it to her.

This was a Storage Ring that he had found in the Hidden Dragon Sect's treasury, so he had just directly given it to Yue Lan since he knew that it would help her with her business.

Though when he gave it to her, he had put it on her left ring finger for her.

Yue Lan had been confused since there was no custom in this ancient cultivation world, but Lin Fan had given an explanation.

The left ring finger was the finger that was the closest to the heart, so he was putting this ring on her to show that he was the one that was the closest to her heart by sealing it with a ring.

Since then, the other girls had looked at him as if they wanted one as well.

After Yue Lan took out this map and spread it, Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a faint bitter smile.

Seeing this, Yue Lan couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

But Lin Fan just shook his head and said, "It's nothing.

The reason why he had revealed that expression just now was because of the map.

It was much less detailed than the one that Weiss had shown him.

Though this was most likely the most detailed map that Yue Lan had commissioned, it still wasn't able to compare to the one that Weiss had suddenly conjured. It seemed that the powers of the gods really were something else.

Still, Lin Fan quickly found the area that he was looking for and put a finger on it to say, "This is the place."

Yue Lan and Ming Xin were the ones that came forward to look at the spot he was pointing at.

After looking at each other and discussing it in whispers for a bit, Yue Lan said, "There's nothing there, right? Why would you want to go to this place?"

Ming Xin narrowed her eyes to look at the map again before saying, "I only remember a strange cave in that area and nothing else. So why would you want to go there?"

"Strange cave?" Lin Fan repeated after hearing this.

Ming Xin was surprised to hear this, but she still said, "I was the one that commissioned this map, so I know everything about it. When the people that I sent went to survey that place, they found that there was nothing special about this place other than a cave, but they didn't survey that cave."

Lin Fan immediately went over to her and grabbed Ming Xin by the shoulders before saying, "Tell me everything that you know about this cave."

Ming Xin was once again taken aback when she heard this, but she could hear the urgency in his voice.

She was a smart person, so she knew that there must be something special about this cave for him to care this much about it.

Ming Xin didn't answer right away as she took a moment to gather her thoughts.

After thinking for a bit, Ming Xin said, "Well this cave…"

…

Two days later, Lin Fan set off for that cave.

He had wanted to go alone, but the girls wouldn't allow him to do that.

So the ones that were accompanying him were Lala and Xiao Yue.

Though there were more powerful people from the Love Sect that could have gone with Lin Fan, Lin Fan insisted on only taking these two.

He didn't explain why he would only take these two, but this was the only compromise that he would make. After all, Lin Fan's original plan was to go explore this cave on his own.

The area that the cave was in wasn't that far from the city in the first place, so it only took two hours of traveling to arrive in that area.

But Xiao Yue and Lala were just happy that they had this chance to travel with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan also couldn't help feeling a bit guilty towards the two of them.

In the past, they were the ones that traveled with him the most.

However, when the matter with the Mu Empire's succession came up, he had left them behind most of the time.

It had been too dangerous for him to take them along since their cultivations hadn't reached a level where it would be safe for them to follow him. At the same time, they didn't want to drag Lin Fan down, so they never insisted on coming with him.

But now that this matter was over, they were happy to come along with him.

Though when it came to their cultivations, they were still lacking.

Neither of them had broken through to the Foundation Realm yet, they were both in the peak Qi Gathering Realm.

Compared to Lin Fan who was in the Qi Condensing Realm, they really were considered too weak…

Still, this was the only compromise that Lin Fan accepted, so this was the only thing that could be done.

When they arrived in the area, it didn't take long for them to find the cave that Ming Xin had mentioned.

As they stood there at the entrance, Xiao Yue and Lala both couldn't see what was special about this cave.

It was only Lin Fan who was able to see what was different about this cave.

Or rather, it was only Lin Fan who was able to sense what was different about this cave.

It was a different form of energy from the spiritual energy that was calmly found on this cultivation continent. It was a form of energy that was only found on the continent where magic was prevalent.

The only reason that Lin Fan could sense this was because of the mana sensitivity that came with the Magic Manipulation skill.

As soon as he felt this energy coming from this cave, he knew that he was in the right place.

So he started using his Appraisal Eyes to see if he could find anything.

Unfortunately, this was just the entrance and there wasn't anything that was special about it. So there wasn't a single popup that came from his Appraisal Eyes.

Xiao Yue and Lala looked at Lin Fan with confused looks when they saw him like this, but they didn't stop him as they waited to see what he was up to.

Once he was done, Lin Fan turned to the two of them and said, "Let's go in."

Xiao Yue and Lala were both surprised by this before Lala said, "Shouldn't we look around the area first and then report back? We should come back with more people, right?"

Lin Fan shook his head before grabbing them and saying, "Nope, we're going in now."

Without even waiting for an answer, he went in with the two of them held in his hands.
