With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

The rumours came in once again and it was about what had happened yesterday.

Tang Chen had disappeared.

It wasn't that he had suddenly disappeared, but rather that he was taken away early in the morning.

Tang Chen was one of the inner sect disciples of the Martial Might Sect, so he was someone who was rather well known in the Martial Might Sect.

So when the disciples from the Law Enforcement Department suddenly arrived at Tang Chen's courtyard to take him away, it was witnessed by many people. With the way that they had carried Tang Chen out, it was almost as if they wanted everyone to see Tang Chen being taken away like this.

With how public it was, the rumours quickly spread that Tang Chen had been removed by the Law Enforcement Department for different reasons.

But the prevailing reason was that it was related to the Love Sect.

After what had happened yesterday between Tang Chen and Xiao Ming, everyone assumed that it was related to this.

Especially after what had happened to the Flowing River Sect.

The Martial Might Sect had wiped out a sect just for the Love Sect, so would they also remove one of their disciples just for having some quarrel with the Love Sect?

It seemed like it was possible.

Once Lin Fan and the others learned of this, they immediately gathered to discuss this.

But there wasn't a single person who could figure out just what the Martial Might Sect wanted.

This was different from the case with the Flowing Water Sect.

Unlike before where it was only outsiders who were involved, this time it was one of the Martial Might Sect's disciples that had been disciplined.

Did this mean that the Martial Might Sect cared about the Love Sect even more than their own people?

Lin Fan and the elders didn't believe this, so they knew that the Martial Might Sect must be up to something.

The only problem was that they had no idea what the Martial Might Sect was planning.

But before any of that could be discussed, Elder Qian had come once more to see them.

Seeing Elder Qian, they couldn't help revealing bitter smiles. That was because whenever Elder Qian came to see them, something always happened.

Only this time, Elder Qian wasn't there to invite them to anything.

Instead…

"For now, it would be better if you stay put until the beginning of the tournament. It seems that people are talking, so it's safer for your group to remain here for now."

For the first time, he was actually telling them to stay put.

It seemed like there was sound reasoning behind this since they were indeed the center of attention right now, but it was strange how sudden they had changed their mind.

It was as if they were trying to keep them from something…

The elders didn't really seem to figure it out, but for Lin Fan who knew about the connection to the Heavenly Demon Sect…

Could it be that the Demon Palm Sect really was connected to the Heavenly Demon Sect like he had thought?

If that was the case, then perhaps it would be good to ally themselves with the Demon Palm Sect to see what the Heavenly Demon Sect was planning.

But for now, it seemed that Elder Qian wasn't done yet.

"Actually, I have some other news that I wanted to share with you."

As expected, there was more that he wanted to discuss with them.

"There's actually a special guest of ours that wants to meet with you. We're hoping that you will make the time tonight to meet with them. You don't have to prepare anything, we will make all the preparations. All you have to do is come with us to the meeting place when the time comes."

The way that he said this made it seem very sketchy, but it also seemed like he was being mysterious on purpose. It seemed like Elder Qian was being cautious not to reveal something.

Was it because the person that he wanted them to meet was of a special status?

Well, of course they would be if they could get Elder Qian and the Martial Might Sect to arrange a meeting like this.

The elders all looked to Lin Fan for his decision.

They had already decided before coming here that when it came to things like this, Lin Fan would make all the decisions. That was because Mu Bao Bao had put her trust in him, so they would do the same.

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Elder Qian before slowly giving a nod of agreement.

Though he had his doubts, he knew that there was nothing to gain from being hesitant.

If they were really powerful enough to make the Martial Might Sect move, it was impossible for him to avoid meeting this person that was pulling all the strings. He had no choice but to meet with this person who Elder Qian was referring to.

Elder Qian didn't seem happy, rather he seemed relieved that Lin Fan had agreed.

It was almost as if he had been scared that something bad would have happened to him if Lin Fan refused to meet with this person.

Just what had happened that Elder Qian would reveal a look like this?

It seemed that the relationship that the Martial Might Sect had with that person wasn't that simple…

When night fell, Elder Qian had come to escort Lin Fan and Lin Fan alone to the meeting.

The elders had wanted to follow, but Elder Qian had stopped them.

The only other person that had been invited was Xiao Ming.

Everyone was surprised that Xiao Ming had also been invited, but Lin Fan had refused to bring her along.

Though she was willing, Lin Fan wasn't willing to put her in danger, so he wouldn't let her follow. After all, he had no idea what he was getting himself into, so he wasn't even certain if he could defend himself.

In that case, he wouldn't bring Xiao Ming along since it would only make the situation worse.

So Lin Fan followed Elder Qian alone.

The two of them came to the main building of the Martial Might Sect.

Lin Fan had never been here before, but he could feel that something was off the moment that he arrived.

It was too quiet…

For the main building of the Martial Might Sect, it would be impossible for this place to be this quiet. Even if it was night time, there should be plenty of people in this place.

So why wasn't there a single sound?

Was this an ambush?

Did he think too much and fall into an ambush without realizing it?

As Lin Fan raised his guard in preparation to be attacked, he suddenly heard something.

It was the sound of music and laughter.

It was the sound of people enjoying themselves, as if there was some kind of banquet going on.

If that was the case, could it be that everyone was at the banquet instead of being spread out all over the building?

No, even if there was a banquet, the main building of the Martial Might Sect shouldn't be this abandoned…

Something had to be going on…

Elder Qian just calmly led Lin Fan forward and it seemed that the further they went, the closer they came to the source of the sound. As they came closer, the sounds of music and laughter became even louder.

But for Lin Fan, he felt that there was something strange about the sounds of this banquet.

It was subtle, but he could tell that there was something off about the laughter of these people…

It was almost as if…they were being forced to enjoy themselves. There was a trace of unwillingness that was in their voice as it rang out.

What was happening here?

When they arrived, Elder Qian suddenly stopped and gestured for the door as he said, "Sect Master Lin, please. The guest is waiting inside for you."

Lin Fan raised a brow as he looked at Elder Qian before saying, "You're not coming in with me?"

Elder Qian seemed to tremble when he heard this before shaking his head and saying, "No, the guest said that he wanted to meet you alone, so I won't be coming with you. Please enjoy yourself, they have prepared a lot to meet you."

I narrowed my eyes to look at Elder Qian, but his expression didn't change at all.

With the way that he looked at me, it was almost as if he was hoping that I would leave as soon as possible.

So in the end, I gave a nod and headed in alone.

While I had no idea what was waiting for me, it was better than just standing here and doing nothing.

When I came in, I saw the scene of a beautiful banquet.

There were beautiful women dancing and all kinds of different delicious dishes.

I could smell the fragrance of those dishes as I came in, so I knew that they were not normal dishes. These were top grade dishes that had been carefully made for this banquet.

But it didn't seem like anyone was enjoying it…

It seemed that everyone was too busy acting like they were enjoying the banquet to actually enjoy it.

At the center of the banquet, there was a person who was sitting in the main seat with a bored look to them.

Though I couldn't really see their face since they were covered in a dark cloak.
