With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 694: The other side

There were only so many screens that were broadcasting the scene from inside the Ten Thousand Beast Valley and there were just too many disciples that not everyone could be seen.

The big fights were seen, but the small ones were ignored.

The only fight that was broadcasted of the Love Sect was the fight over the White Jade Lotus since it involved two other sects.

When the elders of those sects saw how the Love Sect and the Demon Palm Sect group treated their disciples, they immediately looked over at Lin Fan and the Love Sect group with hostile looks.

However, Lin Fan and the Love Sect elders didn't back down.

After all, things like this could be seen all over the place in the Ten Thousand Beast Valley.

At the very least, they were considered lenient since they didn't kill the disciples of those two sects.

There were many cases where disciples of different sects killed each other over the herbs they were collecting.

So leaving them beaten up, but alive was indeed showing mercy.

Of course, they didn't care about that since they only cared about their own benefits. The fact that their disciples had been knocked out was something that was bad for them, so they wanted compensation from the ones that were responsible for it.

It was just that they didn't dare do anything to the Love Sect or the Demon Palm Sect groups.

So they could only glare at them like this.

Now that it was getting late, the action wasn't stopping.

There were some that were fighting into the night, but it was clear that their chances were low to find something good. So most of the elders from the various sects headed off as if they weren't interested in watching.

It was only those elders from the sects that these disciples came from that kept watching, but even then, they had ugly expressions on their faces.

It was clear that they didn't support the choices that they made to continue fighting into the night.

It was just that there was no way for them to communicate with their disciples.

Lin Fan and the elders of the Love Sect also turned to leave, but he found that Elder Qian was there waiting for him. It seemed that Elder Qian had something important that he needed to discuss with him.

The elders wanted to surround Lin Fan as if they were going to protect him, but Lin Fan just casually raised his hand to stop them.

They looked at him with raised brows, but Lin Fan had a calm look on his face as he faced Elder Qian.

Even though every time that Elder Qian came looking for them, it would mean trouble.

Elder Qian didn't smile like before and said with a serious look, "That person wants to see you."

Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows since he didn't expect Elder Qian to suddenly open with this, but he still gave a nod in the end.

The elders had wanted to follow, but Elder Qian stopped them by saying, "He wants to meet Sect Master Lin alone."

The tone of his voice made it clear that this brokered no argument.

The Love Sect elders knitted their brows and looked like they wanted to contest this, but Lin Fan calmed them down again by raising his hand to stop them.

Lin Fan gave them a nod before following Elder Qian.

They came to the main building of the Martial Might Sect again, but this time there were many people around. However, even with all these people here, it seemed like they were ignoring Elder Qian and Lin Fan.

It was as if they were like air, like they couldn't see them at all.

Elder Qian just led Lin Fan to one of the rooms in the back of this building and then opened the door without going in himself.

It was as if he was afraid to go in.

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Elder Qian who avoided his gaze.

In the end, Lin Fan just ignored him and walked in.

This time, there were two old men who were sitting there.

One was the one that he had met at the banquet last night and the other was one that he didn't recognize, but had an aura that was equal to the other old man.

It was clear that the two of them were experts who had been sent by the Five Great Sects.

As soon as Lin Fan came in, both of them suddenly opened their eyes to look at him. The moment that their eyes fell onto him, there was a strong pressure that fell onto Lin Fan.

He could tell that while this pressure was strong, it wasn't as if he hadn't felt it before.

He had felt this pressure from the Elder Jian who had been in the Soul Formation Realm.

As he had guessed, these two were in the Soul Formation Realm.

After putting their pressure on him for a bit, the old man Lin Fan was familiar with said, "Why have you contacted the Demon Palm Sect? Your disciples even went into the first trial with them."

The second old man didn't say anything, but it was clear by the look on his face that he also wanted an answer.

Lin Fan had already somewhat expected this when he saw Xiao Ming's group getting along with the Demon Palm Sect group.

He just never expected them to be this impatient.

But this wasn't a bad sign.

It meant that his guess was right and that there was a member of the Heavenly Demon Sect who was controlling the Demon Palm Sect. It seemed that the Heavenly Demon Sect were here as well and were planning on helping them.

Before that, he had to figure out a way out of this situation.

After all, it seemed like these two old men didn't mind killing him if his answer didn't satisfy them.

If he couldn't escape, how could he think about the future?

With a calm look on his face, Lin Fan said, "I'm not the one that made that decision, the disciples chose to go with them. At the same time, it wasn't as if we were the ones that approached the Demon Palm Sect in the first place. They were the ones that approached us."

The two old men didn't say anything after hearing this as they narrowed their eyes to look at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan had deliberately added a complaining tone to his voice, as if he was unhappy about this situation as well.

He had done this so that the two old men would look down on him, but it was hard to gauge their reactions just based on the expressions on their faces.

After a long period of silence, the first old man said, "Stop interacting with the Demon Palm Sect from now on."

The way that he said it was almost as if he was giving a command, rather than stating an opinion. Even the way that he looked at Lin Fan was as if he was looking at a slave that should follow his every order.

But to both his and the second old man's surprise, Lin Fan said, "No."

Both of them had to take a moment to react to this since it was like seeing a puppet that they had thought was under their control suddenly gaining sentience. It was as if they had been bitten by a dog that they had been feeding.

Once they were able to come back from the shock and react to this, they both immediately released their pressure again before the first old man said, "What did you say?"

Lin Fan just calmly said once again, "No."

Both of them looked like they were about to lose it when they heard this, but they were able to restrain themselves in the end.

The first old man narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan before saying, "Why?"

Lin Fan just calmly looked at the two of them as he said, "First, there's nothing to gain from tearing away all face with the Demon Palm Sect for our Love Sect. In fact, it will harm us more than it will help us if we do this since they will realize that something is up. If they start investigating, they will…"

He let his voice trail off as he looked at the two old men, making it clear that he was implying something.

The two of them narrowed their eyes when they heard this.

Seeing this reaction, Lin Fan said, "Second, it isn't the Demon Palm Sect alone that I'm afraid of. If something does happen, it isn't as if it's guaranteed that you and the people behind you will do anything to help."

Both of the old men deeply knitted their brows when they heard this.

The first old man took a deep breath as he said, "Sect Master Lin, you can be assured that we will do all that we can to help you, but there are certain circumstances where we won't be able to do anything. Not just us, no one would be able to do anything in those circumstances."

Lin Fan revealed a faint smile as he said, "I know."

That smile quickly disappeared from his face as he said, "But that means that I have to be more careful since there's more than meets the eye here."

After a pause, he added, "My first priority is the safety of the Love Sect, everything else comes after that." Your story continues with m-vl-em|p-yr
