With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 715: First time meeting

After leaving that room, Lin Fan couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief.

He reached his hand up to wipe the blood that was at his neck before rubbing his fingers together with the blood in between them.

This gave him the feeling that everything that had happened was real.

While Lin Fan had no idea what had happened, he knew that something must have happened for these two old men to suddenly change the way that they were treating him.

No, even without that, he knew because of what his Appraisal Eyes told him.

So what he had been planning to do was…

If they really tried to push him, he was prepared to use his trump card to take them down.

He knew that he wouldn't have a better chance than this to take them down with an alibi.

There was an unknown expert that was hanging around the Martial Might Sect that could injure them to this degree. So if he were to have the Mimic Slime take them down, then it would be blamed on that unknown expert.

It would have been easy for him to do this.

The only reason why he didn't do this was because it wasn't certain.

There were many different things that could happen in this world and there were people with many different kinds of abilities.

If someone were to have the ability to see through this, then it would be bad for him if it was tracked back to him.

So Lin Fan wanted to avoid this if possible.

But that didn't mean that he could just let them take a part of his soul.

In the end, it seemed like it all worked out as they finally understood that he wouldn't be willing to give them part of his soul no matter what they did.

While he didn't understand why they had backed down, he was grateful that they did at the very least.

But that didn't mean that Lin Fan's mind wasn't quickly turning after leaving that room.

He knew that with the current status that these two had, it was clear that they would become desperate. It was only a matter of time before they did something that would ignore all logic.

That was just what happened when people were driven into a corner.

After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan couldn't help thinking to himself…

"Do I really have no choice but to kill them myself?"

Revealing the existence of the Mimic Slime, even if it was only a possibility, was not something that he wanted to do. The more likely that the Mimic Slime was revealed, the more likely he would be in danger from the Five Great Sects.

After all, it was a very different situation if they were looking down on him. That is compared to knowing that he had something that could even threaten them unless they pulled out their ancestors.

If they knew about the Mimic Slime, there was no doubt that the Five Great Sects would do all that they could to take Lin Fan down.

So Lin Fan was still trying to figure out a way to deal with these two when…

"Come to the outer courtyard and come alone."

Lin Fan was surprised to hear this voice ring out all of a sudden and he couldn't help looking around himself in an attempt to find who this voice belonged to, but he couldn't see a single thing.

There wasn't a single person who was around him.

However, that voice seemed familiar.

It was the voice that he had heard before in the middle of the night.

But there was still a problem.

Lin Fan could feel the various gazes that were around him.

Even if they said that they trusted him, that didn't mean that they would stop monitoring him when they could. So the people from the Martial Might Sect were surely around Lin Fan at this moment, monitoring his every move.

If he were to try leaving to meet with the owner of this voice, there was no doubt that suspicion would be cast on him again.

If it came to that, Lin Fan had no idea what they would do.

As he was lost in thought about how to handle this situation, Lin Fan suddenly felt the gazes around him start to disappear.

He didn't know why it was happening, but in a matter of seconds, all of the people that had been watching him were gone.

As he still had his guard up just in case anything happened, the same voice said, "Take your chance to make your way there now. If you miss this chance, there won't be another one. This will be the only time that they will have their guards down."

The voice didn't say anything else, as if it didn't care if Lin Fan took this chance or not.

It was almost as if it didn't matter to the voice if Lin Fan listened to it or not.

But for Lin Fan, this was a very large choice…

In the end, Lin Fan took a deep breath and headed to the place that the voice told him about.

This outer courtyard that the voice was referring to was the courtyard that Elder Qian had once shown them. That was because this was the place that Elder Qian had warned him against going to when he had been showing them around.

Along the way, Lin Fan didn't sense a single living thing around him.

Even the animals that should have been sleeping in the area around here were completely gone.

It was as if there was something that had made everything disappear.

It was almost spooky how quiet it was.

When Lin Fan arrived at the outer courtyard, he immediately understood why Elder Qian had told him not to come here. It was because this was a place that hid the secrets of the Martial Might Sect like Lin Fan had anticipated, but it was much worse than he thought it would be.

The moment that Lin Fan walked in, he couldn't help covering his mouth as if he was stopping himself from throwing up.

The smell of blood coming from in front of him was quite intense, so it took quite a bit for him to stop himself from throwing up.

But Lin Fan was able to stop himself in the end.

"Cruel and inhumane, isn't it? And they call us a demon sect." This voice came from behind Lin Fan which made him turn around.

When he did, he saw an old man standing there behind him.

He didn't recognize this old man, but he could feel the spiritual energy coming from him.

Even without that spiritual energy, he could feel the pressure coming from that old man, which told him that he definitely wouldn't have been a match for this old man.

After a moment of silence, Lin Fan said, "You're the one that called me here? Why?"

The old man just said with a smile, "I'm the one that said we would meet soon. Plus, I'm your contact here. I'm the one that will help your Love Sect group escape back to the Mu Empire when the time comes."

Lin Fan had already guessed half of this before the old man even said this, but now that he had confirmed it…

Still, there was something that he had to ask, "Who are you?"

"Well, your disciples already know me, but I can still introduce myself. I'm the ancestor of the Demon Palm Sect, Mo Xue. Though it has been a long time since I've been back in the Demon Palm Sect." The last part of his words were added in a whimsical manner as if he was having fun.

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Mo Xue for a bit before saying, "But that's not your only identity, is it?"

Mo Xue wasn't offended when he heard this.

With an amused smile, Mo Xue said, "That's right."

Then that smile disappeared before he said with a serious look, "I am the vice peak master of the Heavenly Demon Sect's fifth peak."

"A vice peak master?" Lin Fan couldn't help repeating in a shocked voice.

While he didn't really know how high up a vice peak master was, with his knowledge of this world and the knowledge from his previous world, he knew that a vice peak master definitely wouldn't be someone that was that low in the organization.

So why was a vice peak master here?

Mo Xue gave a nod with a smile on his face, but he didn't give any explanations.

So all Lin Fan could do was look at him with that strange look until he said, "What did you call me here for?"

Mo Xue had the same smile on his face as he said, "Well, I'm here to discuss what to do."

After a pause, he continued by saying, "They're currently panicking, so they won't learn of me doing this. This was the only chance that I had to have a private talk with you." Then with a wider smile, he said, "Though I was the one that caused this mess in the first place."

"What do you mean by discussing what to do?" Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Mo Xue as he said this.

Mo Xue's smile disappeared when Lin Fan asked this before he said, "Well, you'll need to escape this place and go back to the Mu Empire. I'm here as your backup, but I doubt that you had a plan in the first place. So you'll be following my plan."

Lin Fan had a hesitant look on his face for a bit before slowly giving a nod.
