With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Xiao Ming was very confused when she saw Wu Yun apologizing to her like this.

But she also quickly recovered since this wasn't the place for that.

This place was still a very dangerous place and it was possible that Wu Yun was setting a trap for her, so she couldn't let her guard down in a place like this.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ming said, "Alright, let's talk. I'll listen to what you have to say, but you have to come alone. The rest of them will have to wait on the side."

Wu Yun gave a nod without any hesitation before coming forward to where Xiao Ming was. The rest of her group stayed on the side, but they did have worried looks like they were worried that Xiao Ming would try something.

Xiao Ming gave a secret disdainful snort when she saw this, but she also looked at Wu Yun with a look of admiration for her decisiveness.

The other member of the Love Sect also moved aside so they could help Xiao Ming if something happened.

Once it was just Xiao Ming and Wu Yun, Wu Yun opened up by saying, "I want to apologize once again for what happened before, but I also want to thank you for the warning that you gave me."

Xiao Ming raised a brow, clearly confused by what Wu Yun was referring to.

The reason why she had agreed to this meeting was because she had wanted to distract Wu Yun's group so that they wouldn't interfere with the ones collecting the herbs.

So she was completely caught off guard by Wu Yun suddenly saying this.

After staring at her like this for a few seconds, Xiao Ming asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Wu Yun took a deep breath and said with a sigh, "Do you have time to listen to my story? I promise that it'll make sense afterwards."

Xiao Ming slightly knitted her brows, but she could see the look on Wu Yun's face.

So in the end, she gave a slight nod.

Wu Yun started talking about herself, but she actually kept it quite short. It seemed like she wasn't the kind of person that went on and on, bragging about themselves. She just highlighted a few key parts of herself and then went on to tell a story about her meeting with Senior Brother Tang.

Xiao Ming was a bit surprised when she heard this.

She wasn't surprised to hear Wu Yun talking about Senior Brother Tang, rather she was surprised by the tone that Wu Yun said his name.

There was no longer the same respectful tone that had been in her voice when she mentioned him before.

It seemed that something really had changed with Wu Yun.

After she finished talking about how she and her Senior Brother Tang met, Wu Yun suddenly knitted her brows.

There was a moment of silence before she said, "After what happened with you and how Senior Brother Tang was removed from the Martial Might Sect, I started doing my own investigations. I found that the people that attacked you had the same spiritual energy fluctuations as the ones that attacked me before Senior Brother Tang saved me."

Xiao Ming was really surprised after hearing this.

She had thought that Senior Brother Tang had hid things better, but it seemed that he had been sloppy…

No, it should be said that this was Wu Yun's power as the saintess of the Holy Myriad Land.

The saintess of the Holy Myriad Land would have a much higher status than just an inner sect disciple of the Martial Might Sect. So it wasn't as if she wouldn't be able to find these things out if she really tried.

It was just that she had been completely infatuated and had never thought about checking deeper into this.

She had been completely enamoured by Senior Brother Tang that she didn't even question anything.

Xiao Ming could see the look of regret on her face, showing that she was learning from her mistakes.

It seemed that she had genuinely come to her senses about this and was no longer blindly infatuated by him.

That was all that she wanted to see, so she didn't make things harder for Wu Yun.

Xiao Ming came forward and patted Wu Yun on the shoulder before saying, "It's good that you've recognized your mistakes. You shouldn't blindly chase after someone in the future."

Wu Yun gave a nod, but then she still knitted her brows again.

She was silent for a bit before suddenly saying, "That wasn't all that I found."

Xiao Ming also slightly knitted her brows when she heard this, but she waited for Wu Yun to explain.

Wu Yun took her time as if she was gathering her thoughts before suddenly saying with a sigh, "I know that it's hard to believe, but I don't think that it's as simple as it seems. When I was blindly following him, I didn't notice it, but now that I'm not, I can tell that there was something strange about the way that I acted. It was almost as if…I was being controlled."

Xiao Ming deeply knitted her brows when she heard this.

Wu Yun gave another sigh before saying, "I also did some digging into the other inner sect disciples of the Martial Might Sect. Most of them seem clean, but the ones that are closer to the elders…seem to have similar circumstances. It seems that there's something dark hiding in the Martial Might Sect."

Xiao Ming wasn't surprised to hear this, but she was surprised to hear that they were using some kind of secret power to enchant people. She thought that it was just well thought out plans that would manipulate emotions, but it seemed that the secrets of the Martial Might Sect ran even deeper than that.

Xiao Ming slowly said, "Are you sure that you should be talking about this here?" Experience stories on m_vl_em_p_yr

Wu Yun gave a chuckle before saying, "I already put up precautions, so you don't need to worry. If they were watching us, I would have found out right away and stopped talking."

Xiao Ming gave a slow nod before asking, "So what do you want, telling me all of this? I'm sure that it isn't just out of the kindness of your heart."

Wu Yun nodded with a smile before saying, "I want to be friends with you."

This was the biggest surprise that Xiao Ming had heard all day.

She never thought that Wu Yun would actually want to be friends with her.

After all, even if she had helped Wu Yun, there was no denying that the way that she helped her wasn't as friendly as it could be. There were still the small grudges that were between them that would make it hard for them to be friends.

She never thought that Wu Yun would be able to ignore these so easily.

There was a moment where Xiao Ming had her doubts about Wu Yun saying this, but she could see from Wu Yun's eyes that she was being sincere about this.

Wu Yun could see the way that Xiao Ming was looking at her, so she eventually said, "It's better to trust the ones that will be sincere with you than the ones that hide in the brush. I know that doing this will be dangerous, but I want to believe in you more than the Martial Might Sect."

Xiao Ming was once again taken aback when Wu Yun made this statement.

She looked at Wu Yun with a complicated look for a bit before saying, "Even if it means that doing this might end up in the destruction of your Holy Myriad Land?"

Wu Yun revealed a helpless smile before saying, "At this rate, is there even hope for the Holy Myriad Land? It's clear that whoever is behind the Martial Might Sect wants to control everything in the Wu Empire, so they won't let us off. But our Holy Myriad Land has remained independent for so many years for a reason and we won't go down that easily."

Xiao Ming didn't say anything as she looked at the determined look that was on Wu Yun's face.

Eventually, she gave a nod and said, "I can't promise that we'll be able to help you, but I can offer our alliance. In the future, we can work together if that's what you want."

Wu Yun gave a nod before reaching her hand out towards Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming took that hand and shook it without any hesitation.

Once they were done, both of them suddenly revealed smiles as they looked at each other.

But there was something else that Xiao Ming had to say, "I don't know what will happen, but for now, it's better if we keep this alliance a secret."

Wu Yun nodded in agreement to this before saying, "Should we make a code word for when we need to cooperate."

Xiao Ming nodded as well before she started giving some suggestions.

When they finished talking and separated, both of them had smiles on their faces.

It turned out that they got along better than they thought and they had even become close friends after talking to each other for a bit.

But they had to separate in the end since their alliance was a secret one.

Not to mention, Wu Yun had noticed that there was an observer approaching.

So they left this area to avoid it to avoid having their secret alliance being discovered.
