With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 777: Clear Water Hyacinth

There was silence that followed after Lin Fan said this.

This time, even if he couldn't see her face, he could tell that she was caught off guard by this.

Ye Qing Huan just silently stared at Lin Fan for a bit before saying, "Well, that's fine too."

Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard when he heard this.

After all, Ye Qing Huan was someone from the Heavenly Demon Sect. They were the one that had sent the Love Sect the mission to get the Divine Blood Fruit in the first place, so it wasn't as if they would be happy to see the Love Sect slacking off.

Sending a single person was without a doubt considered slacking off.

So it was strange that Ye Qing Huan seemed alright with this.

But when Lin Fan thought about it more, he realized that she most likely wasn't related to this at all.

Even if she was from the Heavenly Demon Sect, it wasn't as if she was the one that was behind these orders.

So it wasn't as if there was a reason for her to care if he came alone or not.

Though it was strange that she had been surprised to hear that he was alone.

The more that he thought about it, the more that Lin Fan felt it was strange.

It was strange because he realized one thing.

Why was Ye Qing Huan here in the first place?

The Five Great Sects shouldn't be involved in this matter since they were afraid of causing trouble by acting during this tense time.

The fact that Ye Qing Huan was here meant that she was going against this.

There was no doubt that there was some hidden reason why she was here, even going as far as risking the plans of the Heavenly Demon Sect to be here.

Or could it be said that it was because of the Heavenly Demon Sect that she was here?

Regardless of what it was, there had to be some big reason why Ye Qing Huan was here.

Ye Qing Huan on the other hand seemed like she was bored of the conversation and turned to look at the flower that was in the center of the pond.

After looking at it for a bit, she started walking towards it.

Lin Fan couldn't say anything to stop her since she was most likely the one that had deployed the ghosts to block off that area downstream. That meant that the one that he had been sneaking up on was Ye Qing Huan in the first place.

It was no wonder she pointed the sword at his neck when she first appeared.

But after the fact, Lin Fan realized something…

"How did she know that it was me?" After all, he had disguised his face.

This was a disguise that had even fooled powerful experts in the Nascent Soul Realm and the Soul Formation Realm. He had made sure to test it on the ones that the Heavenly Demon Sect had sent to the Mu Empire.

So he was certain that most people shouldn't have been able to see through his disguise…

How did Ye Qing Huan do it?

Though he didn't get a chance to ask her anything as Ye Qing Huang already moved to the center of the pond.

She was able to walk on the water to reach the flower that was in the center of the pond.

Once she was there, Ye Qing Huan leaned down in front of the flower as she brought out a dagger. With that dagger in hand, she carefully removed the flower from the roots that ran deep into the pond.

The moment that the flower was cut, the spiritual energy waves stopped.

The moment that the flower was removed, it had been cut off from the source of its nutrition and the source of the spiritual energy it generated. In that case, it naturally stopped releasing spiritual energy to preserve what it had left.

Seeing her hold the flower, Lin Fan shook his head and gave a sigh.

Since Ye Qing Huan wanted this flower, it meant that there was no way for him to take it.

It seemed that this flower really wasn't destined to be with him.

Or at least that was what Lin Fan thought at first.

After looking at the flower for a bit, Ye Qing Huan turned around to look at Lin Fan and raised the hand holding the flower. With the way that she was holding the flower up for him, it was like she was offering the flower to him.

Lin Fan was taken aback when he saw this.

He looked at Ye Qing Huang with narrowed eyes for a bit, but he still couldn't figure out what she was planning to do just based on this.

So all he could do was ask, "Young Miss Ye, what is the meaning of this?"

Ye Qing Huan didn't seem offended by this question, but it seemed like she was offended by something else.

"Call me Qing Huan or Huan Huan."

"Huh?" Lin Fan was completely caught off guard when he heard this.

He had to look at Ye Qing Huan as if he was trying to figure out if she was being serious or not, but Ye Qing Huan didn't say a thing as he looked at her like this.

Though he couldn't see her face, he could tell that it didn't seem like she was joking…

But that made him even more confused since he didn't think that there was a reason why she would want him to address her like this. Even if there was affection, there was no notification for him to tame her yet.

That meant that it should have only reached the point where she would admire him and nothing more.

So why would Ye Qing Huan want him to address her in such an intimate manner?

It just didn't make any sense at all.

But it wasn't as if he had a choice at all in this matter.

If Ye Qing Huan insisted on having him address her in this matter, it wasn't as if there was anything that Lin Fan could say about it.

So the only thing that he could do was…

"Qing Huan, what are you planning to do with this?" Lin Fan said this as he gave a sigh.

Ye Qing Huan gave a nod as if she was satisfied with this before bringing her hand forward again and saying, "Take it already."

Lin Fan was completely shocked the moment that he heard this.

After all, this was the last thing that he expected to hear from her.

This was a precious herb, one that Ye Qing Huan had put quite a bit of effort into getting. He never would have expected her to hand it over to him like it wasn't worth anything.

It just didn't make any sense at all.

So Lin Fan didn't dare take it.

Ye Qing Huan saw the look on his face and the fact that he didn't move, so she just reached her hand forward and slapped the flower down in his hand without a care.

Lin Fan didn't know what to do once she did this.

After all, if he were to reject it now that she had done all of this, it would be like slapping Ye Qing Huan in her face by rejecting her goodwill.

This was the last thing that he could do at this point…

So all he could do was stand there with a blank look on his face.

Ye Qing Huan didn't seem to notice this as she just calmly said, "I don't have a use for this thing, so you can have it." Then in a sly voice, she said, "Besides, we're on the same side, aren't we? Isn't it a good thing for me if you become stronger?"

There was a bitter smile that appeared on Lin Fan's face when he heard this, but there was nothing that he could say to refute this since she was right.

At least for now, she was right.

There was no telling what would happen in the future, but Lin Fan didn't really want to ruin the relationship that he had with Ye Qing Huan.

It would always be good to have one more friend than one more enemy.

Since that was the case, Lin Fan didn't hesitate to accept it and he started to refine the flower on the spot.

What Ye Qing Huan didn't say was that she had been planning on giving this flower to him in the first place.

When she discovered this, she already knew that this would be perfect for him since she had seen the way that he fought before. As such, she had already decided to give this flower to him when she met him again.

As for why she was so certain that they would meet again…

Well it was because she was the one that was behind him being called here in the first place.

This was all a ploy on Ye Qing Huan's part that no one knew about.

The reason for that was…

Lin Fan looked closely at the flower with his Appraisal Eyes and found that it was called the Clear Water Hyacinth.

This thing was like the Clear Water Bead since it could create pure water elemental energy, but the difference was their abilities.

This Clear Water Hyacinth had the ability to filter rather than gather.

Which was why it created all this pure water that formed the stream.

Still, since they were related, it meant that if he absorbed this Clear Water Hyacinth, then it would help develop his Clear Water Bead.

As such, Lin Fan didn't hesitate to absorb this flower.
