With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 481 Setting Out





The night passed and when morning came, the troops had been gathered.

These weren't all of the city guards since there were still some needed to protect the city, but this was still most of the guards that had been summoned for this.

One thing that Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised by was that…almost all of the city guards were female…

No, when he looked at it closely, he found that all of them were female.

It seemed that no matter where he went, as long as Yue Lan was recruiting people, they would all be female.

Was it just her personal preference or did she have an aversion to males…

Or was it something completely different?

No, it had to be one of the two former options, it couldn't be anything else.

That sneaking sensation that he had was nothing more than a bad feeling, it couldn't be true…

So Lin Fan shook this thought from his mind and focused on the task at hand.

Along with the city guards that had gathered, there were the members of the Love Sect that gathered.

In the end, most of them were still going along with Mu Bao Bao and the only ones left behind were those in the Foundation Realm. They would be too weak to survive if something happened, so they didn't bring them along even if they wanted to come.

With this, they were all prepared.

One thing that Lin Fan had to praise was how quickly Yue Lan and Ming Xin had been able to gather the supplies needed for all of them. 

This wasn't a small amount and it should have taken a long time for them to gather.

But when he found out that they had already prepared a storage for such supplies in the city so that the guards could be deployed at any time, he couldn't help feeling even more impressed.

It seemed that these two were prepared for anything that was thrown at them no matter what happened.

Even in the worst case scenario, they would have some kind of plan in place just in case.

Lin Fan just felt lucky that they were on his side instead of on the enemy's side.

Since everything had been gathered, there was no need for them to wait any longer as they set off under Lin Fan's order.

The only one that would be coming with Lin Fan this time was Mu Bao Bao since this was a personal matter. Or at least that was what it seemed like on the surface.

In reality, there was Senior Sister Bing and the other girls hiding inside of the Minor World just in case this went wrong.

In a worst case scenario, they would be able to hide in the Minor World to escape.

But that was only in a worst case scenario and that would only allow a few of them to escape, so they wouldn't use this plan unless it was absolutely necessary.

However, the main reason that Senior Sister Bing was coming was…because she too felt responsible for taking revenge for the Love Sect.

After all, she too had been a disciple of the Love Sect and she had only been forced to leave because of special circumstances. That didn't mean that she didn't treat the Love Sect as her home.

She had even gone as far as taking down the scions of the sects that had participated in attacking the Love Sect by trapping them in her Minor World.

So there was no doubt that she still cared about the Love Sect.

Though there was technically the issue of whether she would actually be able to join in the fight against the Gale Sect or not…

Technically, she was still in hiding and if she helped with the attack on the Gale Sect, it would expose that.

At the very least though, she wanted to be with them when they attacked the Gale Sect.

She wanted to be there to support them if they needed it.

So Lin Fan allowed them to come in the end.

The place that General Lu and his army were set up was far away from Dungeon City since they were set up in a place that was near the Gale Sect. There were many checkpoints and different passes in between us and where General Lu and his army were.

However, with the order of Emperor Mu, it wasn't a problem for us to get through all of these checkpoints.

Emperor Mu had included a decree that gave us free access through all of these checkpoints, though the one who actually signed it was the fourth prince.

He didn't want to expose his cards before the plan actually went through, so he was using the fourth prince as a cover for now.

With how smoothly we went, it only took around a week to arrive near the area where General Lu and his army were set up.

But before meeting up with General Lu, Lin Fan decided to check in with Mu Bao Bao once more.

He could see that she had a very grim look on her face as they came closer and closer to their goal. It was almost as if she was about to burst from how tense she was…

So he pulled her to the side and asked, "How are you feeling?"

Mu Bao Bao didn't answer at first, but then she suddenly gave a sigh and asked, "I don't know. I thought that I was ready for this, but I really don't know how I'm supposed to feel."

Lin Fan looked at her with an understanding look since he knew that this matter was very complicated. However, at the same time, he didn't make the mistake of thinking that he could truly understand her.

Mu Bao Bao didn't say anything at first, but then she suddenly said, "You don't need to worry about me, I'm ready for this."

Lin Fan gave a simple nod in response to this.

After another silence, Mu Bao Bao asked, "What do you think he really has planned?"

The 'he' that she was referring to was naturally Emperor Mu.

During this entire time, she had been trying to figure out just Emperor Mu's plan was. After all, no matter how she looked at it, this didn't seem like a smart move to suddenly attack the Gale Sect like this.

If he did this, then all he would be doing is announcing what his plans were and who Mu Bao Bao really was.

While it would weaken one of the princes, this was far from being a worthy trade.

So the only thing that she could think of was that this was a trap of some sorts.

Emperor Mu could have made some kind of mistake and now he was trying to exchange her for his own safety. Or from the very beginning, he had never told them the truth and he had been manipulating them the entire time.

Those were the thoughts that had passed through her mind.

But Lin Fan had different thoughts from her.

That was because of his private talk with Emperor Mu.

He had thought of himself as someone that had a good judgement of character and his judgement of Emperor Mu was…someone who was trying his best to make up for his mistakes.

Emperor Mu didn't hide the fact that he had made mistakes in his past and even now, he was trying to make up for them.

To Lin Fan, he seemed like someone that was just trying to be a good father to Mu Bao Bao now…

Though in a sense, he was also a bad father since he was now planning on taking down his other children just to help Mu Bao Bao take the throne.

But the most important thing, Lin Fan could tell that there was something else that was driving Emperor Mu. It was something that seemed to be very important to him and he even had a few guesses…

That was because he could see the pain and longing that was in Emperor Mu's eyes.

He understood what he was feeling as a man who had lovers that he cared deeply about.

Not to mention, Mu Bao Bao's mother was still missing…

So Lin Fan had more than enough reason to believe Emperor Mu knew what he was doing.

Lin Fan just simply shook his head and said, "I have no idea, but you don't need to doubt him that much. While I don't know exactly what he's planning, I'm sure that he does have some kind of plan."

Mu Bao Bao knitted her brows when she heard this.

She glared at Lin Fan for a bit before suddenly asking, "How are you so sure of this? Why does it seem like you're taking his side over mine?"

Lin Fan just revealed a faint smile and said, "Just call it a man's intuition."

Mu Bao Bao was a bit confused when she heard this, but in the end, she gave a sigh before saying, "Will we ever be able to return to having a peaceful life?"

Lin Fan also gave a sigh when he heard this.

After all, he too felt that there were just too many things that they were getting caught up in.

All they really wanted was to live a peaceful life in Dungeon City, but there were so many different things that wouldn't let them do that…

In the end, he said with a sigh, "I can't promise this, but I can say that I hope so."
