With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods-Chapter 151 Ambush (3)
Once Yu Song had been turned into an ice sculpture, Lin Fan's group revealed themselves.
They had been hiding in the trees as Lin Fan sent the water down to freeze everyone from the Sheng Family group.
Even if Yu Song was a Seventh Qi Gathering Realm Cultivator, that didn't mean a thing to Lin Fan with his current cultivation. After many hard weeks of "dual cultivation", Lin Fan had already reached the Ninth Qi Gathering Realm. He was just a single step away from reaching the Foundation Realm.
Though he had only been in the Eighth Qi Gathering Realm when he met Mu Bao Bao.
It was that dual cultivating session with her that had allowed him to break through.
As they landed, they began clearing up the area.
They couldn't just leave the ice sculptures and the logs here, it would draw too much attention too quickly.
Lin Fan knew that it was impossible to completely hide all traces of the massacre here, but he wanted to delay them finding out about this as long as he could. After all, time helped destroy some of the evidence, which would make it harder for them to pinpoint what happened.
But as they were clearing the area, everyone couldn't help revealing different expressions.
Lin Fan had a relieved look since he figured that all of this was over, but no one else had the same look as him. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The first thing that Lin Fan did was of course look to Xiao Yue since this was a matter that deeply involved her. However, to his surprise, she wasn't relieved or sad as he had expected. She wasn't even angry like she should have been.
Instead, she had a look of pity on her face.
Lin Fan couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yue looked at the ice sculpture of Yu Song and said, "I know that it is what he deserved, but I can't feel sorry for his daughter…She was just an innocent person like me and she was sacrificed like that."
Then after a pause, she added, "If it wasn't for you saving me, then perhaps I would have ended up with the same fate…"
Lin Fan could understand how she was feeling, but he knew that this wasn't a world that would allow that kind of thinking.
Xiao Yue also knew this, so after taking a deep breath, she looked at Lin Fan with a calm look and said, "I'll be alright, you don't need to worry about me."
Lin Fan still had a trace of worry in his eyes, but he said, "We'll take revenge one day, I can promise you that."
Xiao Yue gave a nod and then said, "Un."
After that, Lin Fan went over to Tian Tian and Mu Bao Bao who both had looks of caution as they looked at him. When he came over, the two of them couldn't even help taking a step back.
Lin Fan didn't know why they were acting this way, but he raised his hands and said, "I just want to talk. It seems like something is bothering you."
Hearing this, both of them couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief.
After all, they had heard Yu Song saying the words "Daoist Seed" and both of them understood what that meant since they knew about this item. Tian Tian had heard about it during her time at the Mercenary Guild and Mu Bao Bao had read about this in the archives of the Love Sect.
They both knew that this "Daoist Seed" was a vile item that was used to torture women and take their cultivation and life force away from them.
The fact that Lin Fan never mentioned this to them before immediately piqued their suspicion.
But seeing how he was acting, it didn't seem like he was planning on doing anything to them just yet, so they were willing to at least listen to what he said. Of course, that didn't mean that they were ready to trust them just yet, even if they did have feelings for him.
Lin Fan came up to them and asked in a confused voice, "What's wrong with the two of you? You've been acting strange this entire time?"
Tian Tian didn't say anything in response as she tried to see through Lin Fan's thoughts, but Mu Bao Bao didn't hold back at all she said, "You really think that you can fool us like this? You think that we don't know what the Daoist Seed is? I really was wrong about you!"
Seeing this reaction from Mu Bao Bao, Lin Fan's confused look became even more confused as he asked, "What do you mean by that? I didn't hide anything from you. I told you everything that was important."
Mu Bao Bao gave a soft snort at this and said, "You think that you can hide it now? I know that the Daoist Seed is an evil item that is used to steal a woman's cultivation and their life force, I can't believe that you would use such a thing on poor Xiao Yue. The fact that you hid this from us is a clear sign of your guilt!" Then she pointed her finger at Lin Fan and said, "Were you planning on doing the same to us? Is that why you approached us?"
At this, even Lala couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a suspicious look.
The only one who acted normally was Xiao Yue who was just as confused as Lin Fan as to why Mu Bao Bao was acting this way. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
Lin Fan quickly shook his hands and said, "No, no, I don't have this intention at all. Not to mention that I don't even have any Daoist Seeds to begin with. I wasn't even the one who put the Daoist Seed in Xiao Yue."
Mu Bao Bao didn't relent as she said, "But you still didn't tell us about the Daoist Seed in Xiao Yue. So when were you planning on using it? When she gained enough cultivation to help you break through?"
Lin Fan's confusion reached a peak as he asked, "What do you mean by that? Why would I take Xiao Yue's cultivation when we can just share the effects of the Daoist Seed?"
This time, it was Tian Tian and Mu Bao Bao's turn to be confused, but Mu Bao Bao didn't give up as she said, "What are you talking about? Do you really think that you can fool us like this?"
Lin Fan quickly raised his hands in surrender as he said, "It's the truth, we've been sharing the effects of the Daoist Seed. You can check Xiao Yue if you don't believe me."
No matter how they looked at it, it didn't seem like Lin Fan was lying. However, neither of them had ever heard of such a thing before, so they couldn't exactly believe Lin Fan's words right away.
So instead, they decided to go right to the source of the problem.
Both Tian Tian and Mu Bao Bao came over to where Xiao Yue was and took her wrist as they sent their spiritual energy in to check.
Xiao Yue didn't resist at all since she knew that this was the only way that she could help Lin Fan, so she just let them check her body.
It didn't take them long to find the Daoist Seed that was inside of her, but the moment that they did, they couldn't help knitting their brows. As they kept checking the Daoist Seed, they couldn't help showing more and more shock on their faces before turning to Lin Fan.
They had found that the Daoist Seed was indeed doing what Lin Fan had said. Instead of draining away Xiao Yue's cultivation and life force, it was actually providing her with more spiritual energy which helped increase her cultivation even more.
It could even be said that this was the reason why Xiao Yue's cultivation was going so quickly…
Lin Fan saw these two shocked gazes looking at him and he couldn't help asking, "Isn't it commonly known that you can use the Daoist Seed to dual cultivate and increase the cultivation of both people?"
Both Mu Bao Bao and Tian Tian shook their heads when they heard this as they kept looking at Lin Fan with strange looks.
Lin Fan was starting to understand what the problem was, but there wasn't anything that he could do about this. This was something that his system had told him about and since he didn't know anything about the Daoist Seed, he had assumed that this was just common knowledge.
It seemed like that assumption was wrong.
Mu Bao Bao once again took the lead by asking, "Where did you learn about this? No one has ever heard of the Daoist Seed being used like this before!"
Lin Fan just revealed an awkward smile and didn't say anything at first, but facing these two gazes that were intent on getting information from him, he had no choice but to say, "I met someone in the past who taught me about this. I promised him that I would never talk about this to anyone."
Tian Tian gave a satisfied nod when she heard this. After all, she had already figured that Lin Fan's origin wasn't simple, but since he wasn't willing to share, she was willing to wait for him.
As for Mu Bao Bao, it was clear that she wanted more information, but she also had no choice but to accept Lin Fan's explanation. She was deeper in the cultivation world than any of them and knew that it was offensive to go any further if someone wasn't willing to share.
Maybe she would ask more if it was an enemy, but she didn't want to ruin her relationship with Lin Fan, so she had to respect this.
At the very least, she had confirmed that Lin Fan didn't have any bad intentions towards them…
But when she thought about it, she felt that seemed right since this was the kind of personality Lin Fan had since the beginning. She always felt like there was a strange reason that she could trust Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan saw the affection for these two rising again, he let out an internal sigh of relief.
It had been a while since he had seen affection dropping, not since the first time with Xiao Yue.
Right now, he couldn't afford to lose the affection of the two of them since both of them were very meaningful to him right now. Plus, he cared deeply about them not just because of the organization or power that they had, he cared about them as his women.
But no matter what, the system was his greatest card in this world and it was his bottom line. No matter what, he would never reveal its existence to anyone unless there wasn't any other choice.
So once again, he let out a secret sigh of relief when the two of them went back to acting like before.
