With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Once this was all decided, the only thing left was to put the plan into action.

Over the next few days, before the envoy arrived, they started making their moves.

Ming Xin was kept completely busy by Yue Lan, who had a completely different understanding of her intelligence now.

She realized that she had been using Ming Xin in a completely wrong manner and started using her as her right hand woman. Instead of putting her in a research lab and letting her do what she wanted, she directed Ming Xin to do the things that she needed.

She found that Ming Xin did the work of over twenty people alone and that was when she was slacking off. When she worked for real, she was able to easily do the work of a hundred people by herself.

It wasn’t that she was efficient, she was just so smart that she was able to skip most of the steps that other people would need to do.

But it was alright since the best results were achieved.

There was also the matter with the Mercenary Guild.

Tian Xue had been called over from Sunset City to discuss the matter of the fourth prince and the Mercenary Guild.

She had been confused why she had been called over at first, but she revealed a shocked look when she heard what she was asked.

“How do you know about this?” Tian Xue asked with narrowed eyes that had a trace of hostility in them.

At the same time, she couldn’t help peeking at Tian Tian out of the corner of her eyes.

It was clear what she was thinking. She clearly blamed Tian Tian for them knowing about the Mercenary Guild’s link to the fourth prince.

Yue Lan looked at Ming Xin who then said, “The branches in Green Lake City, Jade Pearl City, and Yellow Dawn City are all quite big aren’t they?”

Tian Xue revealed a confused look when she heard this before asking, “What does that have to do with this?”

Ming Xin then said with a sly smile, “Those three cities have all secretly allied with the fourth prince. And not only that, the Mercenary Guild has also put branches in Fair Water Town, Sky Jade Town…and Dark Grass Town, all of which have connections to the fourth prince. I don’t think that any of this is a coincidence.”

Tian Xue’s mouth dropped further down the more she heard this.

She couldn’t believe what she was hearing from Ming Xin, but she also didn’t have a way to refute it.𝐎𝑣𝐞𝓵xt.𝓬𝗈𝐌

After a long time of being stunned, she finally said, “That…That’s all just a coincidence, isn’t it?”

Ming Xin just said with the same sly smile, “Is it? I think you know the truth in your heart.”

Tian Xue’s lips twitched as she really couldn’t think of anything to say in response to this.

Tian Tian saw this and couldn’t help patting her on the shoulder with a comforting look. It was as if she didn’t mind being accused by Tian Xue earlier since she would have done the same if she was in the same situation.

After all, this didn’t just involve the Mercenary Guild, it also involved their family that were deeply connected to the Mercenary Guild.

After a long time, Tian Xue gave a sigh and said, “Alright, alright, I get it. I’ll help you with what you’re thinking about doing.”

But then her eyes turned sharp as she looked at them and said, “As long as you can ensure that our family will be able to back out, I’ll help you. That’s my bottom line.”

Yue Lan didn’t answer right away and looked at Ming Xin instead.

Without knowing it, she had already begun to rely on Ming Xin more and more.

Ming Xin stroked her chin as she thought about it before saying, “I can think of a few ways to do that, but…”

She looked at Lin Fan and said, “I’ll need your help.”

Lin Fan revealed a surprised look when he heard this as he repeated, “My help? What would you need my help with?”

Ming Xin revealed a bitter smile before saying, “You’ve done many things that even I can’t predict. This plan is an uncertain one where even I can’t guarantee everything, so I’ll need your help when the time comes.”

Lin Fan didn’t know how to feel about this, but he couldn’t help feeling a bit bitter when he heard this.

Still, he gave a nod in response.

Tian Xue knitted her brows again hearing this as she said, “You’re telling me that you want me to trust a plan that you can’t even guarantee? That’s…”

Before she could finish, Tian Tian grabbed her by the shoulder again to say, “Big sister, it isn’t like that.”

Tian Tian had already seen how talented and skilled Ming Xin was, so she knew that she wouldn’t speak casually. Even if this was a plan that she wasn’t confident in, she would still…

Tian Tian turned to Ming Xin and asked, “How confident are you in this plan?”

Ming Xin tilted her head to think before answering, “70%. 80% if you give me some more information.”

Tian Tian gave a nod before turning to Tian Xue to say, “Big sister, please believe in them.”

Tian Xue looked at Tian Tian and then looked at Lin Fan before giving a sigh.

She shook her head for a while before looking up at them to say, “Alright, I’ll trust you.”

Then after a pause, she added, “But, I have a condition of my own.”

Once again, they tensed up after hearing this.

Tian Xue gave another pause before saying, “I want you to come and meet my and Tian Tian’s parents.”

Of course the one that she said this to was Lin Fan.

Lin Fan’s jaw dropped when he heard this, but then he said in a shaky voice, “Uh, should I really meet them? After all, aren’t I scum for…both of…”

Tian Tian and Tian Xue looked at each other before suddenly revealing smiles.

Tian Xue said, “Well, it won’t be a problem with our parents because…”

She just left the second half of her sentence hanging without finishing it.

Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling more and more worried when he heard this and he turned to look at Tian Tian.

Tian Tian just revealed an awkward smile and without explaining anything, she said, “Well, just do your best.”

Lin Fan had a look on his face like he didn’t know what to say…

So in the end, all he could do was give a nod in response.

Once that was settled, Lin Fan was kicked out of the room.

These girls knew that he wouldn’t be of any use other than to convince Tian Xue to agree to their plan.

He was more of the muscle to their group than the brains.

After being kicked out, Lin Fan just had a bitter smile on his face, but he didn’t complain since he knew that he wouldn’t be of any help. If he could have been of help, he would have been helping Yue Lan all along instead of running around like he was doing.

So he went to go meet with the members of the Love Sect.

After all, this would also involve them, so he wanted to inform them of this before it happened.

As for the members of the Hidden Dragon Sect, he didn’t plan on telling them anything since it would be troublesome if they knew.

The members of the Hidden Dragon Sect didn’t have the same loyalty as the people from the Love Sect, so they would surely do something if they were to know.

Of course, when he told the members of the Love Sect, it was only the elders.

The disciples…were just like the members of the Hidden Dragon Sect. They hadn’t been with the Love Sect long enough to build any loyalty yet.

But when he told them, all of them had complicated looks as they turned to Mu Bao Bao.

Lin Fan was surprised that they all had these looks because he also knew why they were looking at Mu Bao Bao like this.

It was all because of the token that had the word “Mu” on it.

He had figured it out on his own, but he never expected all of them to figure it out as well…

Mu Bao Bao saw all of them looking at her and she gave a sigh before saying, “What are you looking at me like this for?”

All of them suddenly awkwardly looked away.

They could look if she didn’t say anything, but when she spoke up, they felt awkward about it.

So instead of looking at Mu Bao Bao, all of them looked over at Lin Fan.

It was clear what they were asking him to do since he was now the closest person to her, even closer than them who were her senior brothers and sisters.

Mu Bao Bao also looked at Lin Fan as if she was waiting for something, but seeing that he didn’t say a thing, she just said, “I know about what that token means, you don’t have to say anything.”

All of the elders revealed shocked looks.

They had thought that they had kept it hidden well enough from her over the years, but now it seemed…

Mu Bao Bao paused before continuing, “I don’t feel any attachment, so you don’t have to worry.”

Her voice was calm, but Lin Fan who was the closest to her could tell that there was a slight tremor to her voice.

So he couldn’t help looking at her with a look of concern.

Seeing this look of concern he pointed at her, Mu Bao Bao tried to remain calm, but she still gave a sigh in the end before saying, “It’s a lie to say that I don’t feel anything at all, but I can tell you that it isn’t strong enough to affect me. The only thing that I really feel is a bit of regret since I never knew them in the first place.”

Lin Fan still looked into her eyes as she said this, but he could tell that her expression had changed.

This time, he just gave a nod without saying anything to show that he understood.

After this, her senior sisters came over to take her in their arms.

As for the reason why they were all like this…

It was because the token with the “Mu” character was the same as the “Mu” character in her name.

At the same time, it was the same “Mu” character that was used in the Mu Empire name.

Which meant…
