With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Though Lin Fan couldn't see their face, he could sense a strange feeling coming from this person.

It was as if they were giving off a strange aura that just made him uneasy.

He could tell that this person was anything but simple.

As he stood there staring at this person, that person also turned to look at him.

The moment that this cloaked person saw Lin Fan, they sat up and waved their hand at him, as if they were calling him over.

As soon as this cloaked person did this, everyone suddenly turned to look at Lin Fan.

The way that they looked at him wasn't with curiosity as one might think they would in this situation. Rather, they were looking at him as if they were pleading with him to go along with what this cloaked figure wanted.

It was as if they were trying to tell him to go along with every whim that this cloaked figure had, no matter what it was.

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows slightly when he saw this.

Seeing that he wasn't coming over, the cloaked person suddenly said, "Sect Master Lin, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Why don't you come over here and sit so we can talk?"

It was a male voice that came out.

The first part of his words sounded friendly, but the second part of his words…had a dark undertone to it.

There was this strange commanding tone to his voice as he said this that made people want to naturally obey his orders. However, Lin Fan was able to keep his will strong when in front of this cloaked person.

Still, he slowly walked over to where the cloaked person was.

It wasn't because he was following orders, it was that the people around him really seemed like they were terrified of this cloaked person. It seemed like something bad might happen to them if he remained where he was, so he didn't want to implicate them.

Though he didn't know who they were, it didn't seem like they had a choice but to be here.

Seeing him come over, the cloaked person gave a nod before gesturing to one of the mats at the table in front of him. It was as if this cloaked person was telling him to sit down and make himself comfortable, but that was naturally the last thing that Lin Fan wanted to do right now.

After sitting down, Lin Fan didn't touch any of the food or drinks that was on the table and just kept staring at the cloaked person.

However, the cloaked person didn't seem to care at all about the way that Lin Fan was looking for him.

The cloaked person grabbed two of the girls who suddenly trembled the moment that his hands came over them.

As he grabbed them, Lin Fan was able to see that his hands were quite wrinkled, so the one that was under the cloak shouldn't be a young person. But with the aura that he released, it would have been strange if he was a young person.

The girls quickly recovered and started serving that person under the cloak.

They brought him wine and food before feeding it to him.

That person under the cloak never removed his cloak, but he didn't have any problem eating the food and drinking the alcohol that was brought to him.

After enjoying himself for a bit, he looked at Lin Fan and said, "Are you not going to enjoy the banquet that I've prepared for you?"

There was a dark undertone to his voice again as he said this.

At the same time, all of the others who had been pretending to enjoy the banquet once again looked in Lin Fan's direction with scared looks.

Lin Fan calmly looked back at the cloaked figure, but he eventually reached out to take one of the cups from the table. As he did, one of the girls quickly came over and lifted the jug of alcohol off the table to pour him a drink.

At first, Lin Fan had wanted to take the jug from the girl and do it himself, but she looked at him with a pleading look.

So in the end, he just allowed her to pour the drink for him.

After she poured his drink, Lin Fan turned back to look at the cloaked person and raised the cup to him before drinking it all in one go.

Once he chugged that drink, he put the cup down on the table and just sat there.

The cloaked person didn't say a single thing as he kept looking in Lin Fan's direction.

But then all of a sudden, the cloaked person burst out in laughter as he said, "Good, very good! Refreshing, very refreshing! It seems that Sect Master Lin is a very forward person!"

He pulled his arms back from the girls who were at his side and waved one hand for them to leave.

They quickly moved away, though they didn't go too far out of fear that he would need them to serve him again.

But the cloaked person just said, "Since Sect Master Lin is this forward, I would seem like a fool if I were to keep acting cautious like this."

With a wave of his hand, he said, "All of you can leave now!"

Everyone who had been at the banquet suddenly stopped what they had been doing.

They looked at each other as if they didn't know what to do at first, but then they quickly left this place with looks on their faces as if they had been spared. They didn't hesitate for even a second as they quickly disappeared from this banquet hall.

It didn't take long before there was only me and the cloaked person who were still left in this banquet hall.

He just poured himself a cup of alcohol and took a sip before saying, "Sect Master Lin, I'm sure that you already have guesses as to who I am, but I can assure you that I am not your enemy. Rather, I am a friend who has come to give you some advice."

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows when he heard this, but he didn't say anything in response as he waited to see what the cloaked person would say.

The cloaked person didn't seem to mind as he calmly said, "I'm sure that you're aware of all the things that have happened in the Mu Empire." After a pause, he corrected himself by saying, "I'm sure that you must have been involved in many of the things that have happened in the Mu Empire. Especially since the Love Sect has been involved in this matter since the beginning."

This time, the cloaked person just paused and looked at Lin Fan, as if he was waiting for a response.

Lin Fan didn't say anything as he just gave a slight nod as if he agreed with this.

Then the cloaked person said, "I can only say that certain people have been disappointed by the actions of the former emperor. They are not happy with how things have turned out, so they sent me to come talk to Sect Master Lin. They are hoping that I can help Sect Master Lin see the light and come back to the right side."

The cloaked person slowly pulled back the hood of his cloak to reveal his true appearance.

It was a white haired old man who had a seemingly kind appearance, like one would expect from a friendly neighbourhood grandfather.

But when Lin Fan looked into his eyes, he could see a look that was different from his appearance.

The look in this old man's eyes was a dangerous one.

After pulling off his cloak, the old man said, "I hope that Sect Master Lin will be able to see through the deceptions of the previous emperor and help the current empress see them as well. In the end, we hope that you will do the right thing and return to our side."

The way that he said this almost seemed like the way that a friendly neighbourhood grandfather would say this, but there was no hiding the dark undertone in his voice.

A part of his voice made it clear that there would be consequences if he wasn't able to see the light.

It was clear that this was a thinly veiled threat. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

There was a long silence that lingered in the air before Lin Fan finally said, "May I ask in what capacity you are asking this as?"

The old man revealed a surprised look before suddenly revealing a sly smile as he said, "It seems that Sect Master Lin has some ideas in his mind. If Sect Master Lin is asking this, I can only assume that Sect Master Lin is looking for something."

His expression turned serious before saying, "If Sect Master Lin is looking for a higher position, I can guarantee that there is a position for you. It will all depend on how Sect Master Lin performs."

Lin Fan showed a bit of hesitation before asking, "And how many different factions are involved?"

The old man narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan, but he didn't say his answer out loud.

Instead, he just raised a hand and held up two fingers.

From this, Lin Fan got his answer.

With a nod, Lin Fan said, "I will do my best to achieve this, but I ask for some time."

The old man gave a nod without saying anything else.
