With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

There was only silence that followed, but Lin Fan quickly realized what was wrong.

With a thought, the binding that held the old master and the third master was released.

There was a moment where they had looks of amazement on their face as they realized that they were freed, but then the old master looked at Lin Fan and said, "Fan'er, how can you be this cruel? They were your family and you slaughtered them all? How will you rule over the Lin Family after this?"

Lin Fan shook his head with a sigh.

He couldn't tell if this old man was a fool or if he was just delusional.

After all of this, he was still talking about the Lin Family…

It should have been clear that he had come today with the intention to bury the Lin Family completely after all of this. Yet, this old man was still talking about being the head of the Lin Family.

No, when Lin Fan looked at this old man closely, he realized something.

It was despair.

The Lin Family was his entire world and now that it was collapsing, this was a defense mechanism that he was using to cope with the collapse of his entire world.

When he realized this, Lin Fan couldn't be bothered to deal with this old man.

There was still something that he was clinging to that made him act this way and before he crushed that, he wouldn't be able to break him. So there was no point talking to the old master until he found that one thing since the old master just wouldn't listen to him.

Instead, Lin Fan turned his attention to the third master.

The look on his face…it was one that showed that he had completely given up.

This was the look of a man that was completely defeated and accepted his defeat.

After all, what did he have left?

He realized this sooner than the old master, so this move could be considered a success.

It was too bad that this wasn't the only move that Lin Fan had.

With a wave of his hand, the old master's mouth suddenly closed and no longer opened.

Lin Fan looked at them again with cold eyes as he said, "There's still one more show to play. Please enjoy it."

The old master's eyes were filled with despair when he heard this, but the third master only had a numb look in his eyes. It was almost as if he had suffered so much emotional distress that he could no longer react.

Lin Fan just waved his hand and ripples formed in the mirror of water once more.

Seeing this, the old master's eyes filled with even more despair.

The last show that he had seen was the slaughter of his family.

It wasn't the slaughter of his family at the hands of others, but the slaughter of his family at their own hands. Even if he was cruel enough to kill his own sons, that was only because he had no other choice.

He was someone that cared about his blood, or rather the future of the Lin Family.

His one hope had been to have his third son and Lin Fan have children to carry this forward, but now…

Even in a pinch, he was still able to have children.

He actually had several illegitimate children that were even younger than Lin Fan that no one knew about.

As the ripples spread across the mirror of water, the scene quickly changed.

It changed to one that both the old master and the third master were familiar with.

This was the scenery of a quarry, but they could also see that there was smoke coming from this quarry.

But that wasn't the most important thing.

The most important thing was that this quarry was where the plan of the Lin Family had been taking place.

This was where their hopes and dreams were!

The view was a view from above at first, like one was viewing it from a bird's eye view. But that view quickly came down and dived into the quarry to show what was happening inside.

As this happened, the old master and the third master couldn't help being impressed by this.

They were already impressed by the mirror of water that showed these scenes, but now they were impressed by the angle that this mirror of water could show them.

They had never heard of this kind of technique before…

When the mirror of water zoomed in on the quarry, they saw where this smoke was coming from.

It was piles of bodies that were being burnt.

When they saw this, the looks on the faces of the old master and the third master changed.

They finally recognized that it was all over…

After all, these were the things that they had hoped would give them a chance to rise up again.

These were jiangshi that the Lin Family had been creating with the rocks that they mined from this quarry. The rocks that were in this quarry were filled with large amounts of yin energy that was being used to turn corpses into jiangshi.

The jiangshi themselves had been hiding in the caves of the quarry, out of sight of everyone.

When the time came, the Lin Family had wanted to use this jiangshi to take over this province and declare their own kingdom.

It was just too bad that they were found out and stopped by Lin Fan.

Once again, when the angle went closer, it revealed that there were people that were standing over the burning pile of corpses. It seemed that these were the people that were responsible for these burning piles of corpses.

Looking even closer, there was a face among this group that the old master and the third master recognized.

It was the governor.

The governor was standing among the people that were throwing more bodies onto the pile and burning them all.

With the way that he stood, it was clear that he was the one that had orchestrated the destruction of the Lin Family's final care.

Only…how did he find out about this in the first place?

No matter how they looked at it, it shouldn't have been possible for the governor to have figured all of this out…

That was until they saw one specific person who was with the governor's group, guiding them through all of this.

Lin Fan could see that they had something to say, so he released them once again to see what the show they would put on for him.

The third master was the one that shouted, "Lu Si! That traitor! How dare he reveal the secrets of our Lin Family so easily!"

Lu Si, he was the cloaked figure that had met with the four masters just a day ago to report on this matter.

He was the one that the four masters had left in charge of this matter, the one that said that he would take care of everything.

It was just that they didn't know that…he had also been controlled by Lin Fan.

Even before he met them, he had been controlled by the Control Toad.

He was one of the ones that had met with Lin Fan this morning before he had gone to find Lin Li Zi.

Right now, he was showing the governor and his people everything.

Speaking of the governor, Lin Fan actually had to praise him since he had put quite a bit of pressure on the governor.

He had only told the governor about this a day ago and the governor had rushed all the way here. It was clear that he put importance on the order that Lin Fan gave him, so he must have used a very special method to get here with all of his men.

Though they were able to speak now, it wasn't as if they were able to do a thing since their bodies were still frozen.

Lin Fan had only restored their ability to speak after all, he didn't give them the ability to move.

After a while of raging at Lu Si, they weren't able to do anything about it as they turned back to look at Lin Fan.

Finally, it seemed like they were completely crushed as the old master looked like he had aged twenty years.

The old master even looked like he was on the verge of death with how withered he looked. It almost seemed like just a single breeze would be all that it would take to knock him over.

That was how defeated the old master was.

His expression changed several times as he looked at Lin Fan, as if he was still sorting out his emotions.

But in the end, he simply said, "Why?"

Lin Fan didn't answer this question as he said, "It doesn't seem like you enjoyed my show."

Both the old master and the third master could only laugh bitterly in response to this.

His show had shown them the destruction of the Lin Family and everything that they held dear, how could they possibly enjoy something like that?

But Lin Fan wasn't done yet.

He looked at the two of them and said, "Since you didn't enjoy the show, maybe I can show you a trick that will cheer you up."

Both the old master and the third master trembled when they heard this.

After all, they could still see the last thing that Lin Fan had wanted to show them.

At this point, they didn't want to see anything else that Lin Fan had to show.
