With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 801 Feel sorry for them



There was a silence that lingered in the air before one of the elders suddenly spoke.

"Great Elder, you mean that they knew about our need for the Moon Gazing Flower and stopped us? But we've been keeping our eyes on the other three sects the entire time and made sure that they wouldn't do anything."

The other elders nodded in agreement.

Even an allied sect wasn't a sect that would escape their surveillance.

They had spent quite a bit of manpower just watching over those other sects.

So if one of those sects actually moved against them and took this Moon Gazing Flower from them…

The Great Elder shook his head before saying, "No, it's not one of those three sects. There's no way that they would do something like this."

All of the elders revealed shocked looks at this, but the Great Elder continued by saying, "It seems like someone else is provoking us. It seems like there's someone else who's moving under the current and is trying to get us to split our forces…"

All of the elders deeply knit their brows when they heard this, but one of the elders still couldn't help asking, "Great Elder, are you sure of this? It seems like this might be the work of one of those three sects. There's no guarantee that it isn't them, is there?"

The Great Elder narrowed his eyes before saying, "If it was them, why did none of our people notice them moving? Do you really think we put in all that effort for nothing?"

All of the elders trembled when they heard this, but they knew what the Great Elder was trying to do.

If they admitted that it was one of the three sects, then that would mean that they were admitting that there was a traitor. Once that was out there, then there was no doubt that they would be filled with suspicion towards each other.

At this critical moment, they couldn't suspect each other or else the other three sects would take advantage of this.

Though once they were in private…there was no doubt that they would investigate each other.

For now, they just couldn't show this in public.

They had to at least act like they were united or else this would all fail.

So the elders fell silent after hearing what the Great Elder said.

Their eyes told different stories, but they at least acted civil right now.

The Great Elder could naturally see this from them, so he said with a sigh, "Go and get me the information on the auction. I want to know everything that happened."

The one that he was talking to was the disciple who had brought the crystal in the first place.

That disciple had been trying to hide up against the wall like he was blending into the background, but he couldn't do that any longer when the Great Elder called him out like this.

However, he wasn't unhappy that he was called out like this.

Rather, it looked like he had just been pardoned with the look that was on his face.

"Yes, yes, we'll find everything about the auction." The disciple immediately turned to leave as soon as he said this.

It was just that he didn't move fast enough and the Great Elder called out to stop him again.

"Where did you get the crystal in the first place?"

That was the one thing that had confused the Great Elder since the disciple had never mentioned it. It was almost as if he had been trying to hide this fact from them the entire time.

The elders all narrowed their eyes to look at the disciple after the Great Elder asked this question.

There was a very awkward look that appeared on the disciple's face when he saw this and he wasn't able to say a single word. However, the pressure was getting stronger and stronger and it didn't seem like they would let him remain silent.

So in the end, the disciple said in an awkward voice, "It was dropped off in front of our headquarters earlier. We didn't know what it was until we saw what was recorded in the crystal."

There were many elders that revealed looks of doubt the moment that they heard this, but they didn't get to say anything.

The Great Elder just simply said, "Alright, that's all."

Then he waved his hand as if he was dismissing this disciple.

The disciple no longer dared to remain after hearing this and immediately ran off without turning back once.

The elders all looked at the Great Elder as if there was something that they wanted to say, but the Great Elder just calmly said, "If there was anything that he was hiding from us, do you think that we wouldn't be able to find out? There's no need to worry about someone as small as him."

The elders slowly nodded in agreement, but that didn't solve the problem that they were facing.

Many of them looked at each other, as if they didn't trust each other.

Well, it would be hard for them to trust each other at this point since there was too much evidence pointing to there being a traitor amongst them.

Still, they had to act as if everything was normal.

The Great Elder gave a sigh and said, "For now, we…"

"It has been delivered?" Ye Qing Huan asked in a calm voice.

"Yes, young miss. I made sure to send it right to their doorsteps so they will start doubting each other." Grandma Pan replied.

Ye Qing Huan gave a nod before revealing a smile to say, "Thank you, Grandma Pan. Good work."

Grandma Pan gave a nod before disappearing from the room.

That only left Lin Fan and Ye Qing Huan alone in the room.

It didn't seem like Grandma Pan minded that Ye Qing Huan was alone in a room with Lin Fan.

It seemed like she already knew what Ye Qing Huan had done with Lin Fan, which was why she left the two of them alone in the room like this in the first place.

It seemed that the relationship was quite close between Ye Qing Huan and Grandma Pan.

Seeing the expression on Lin Fan's face, Ye Qing Huan said, "Grandma Pan was one of the few that were there to raise me. She will never betray me."

Lin Fan was surprised to hear this, but then he gave a simple nod before asking, "What are you planning on doing now?"

He had already heard Ye Qing Huan's plan for the Moon Flower Sect and he had to admit that it was certainly effective. It was so effective that he couldn't help feeling sorry for the Moon Flower Sect that would be put in this situation.

It seemed that anyone that faced Ye Qing Huan's wrath would be doomed to suffer.

He just hoped that he wouldn't be on the receiving end of this wrath one day.

Ye Qing Huan revealed a smile as she said, "Well, now that we've messed with the Moon Flower Sect, it wouldn't be fair if we just let the other sects get off free, right?"

Though there was a smile that was on her face, there wasn't anything friendly behind that smile.

That was the smile of someone who was eyeing their prey and right now, her prey was the other three sects that had been sent to get the Divine Blood Fruit. Or it was better to say that they were her prey all along and they had only been dancing in the palm of her hands.

Just like Lin Fan.

Lin Fan felt that since he met Ye Qing Huan, it was as if he had lost control of the wheel.

It was like she had control of the wheel and he was locked up in the trunk of the car.

Though what she did was indeed helpful to him since it would cause chaos with the four sects that had been sent here to claim the Divine Blood Fruit. This would give him space to take the Divine Blood Fruit for himself, for the Heavenly Demon Sect.

But if Ye Qing Huan was discovered to be helping him…there was no doubt that there would be serious consequences.

So all of this felt like he was walking on a tightrope.

Just a single misstep would mean that it was all over…

But there was nothing that he could do but keep walking since the way back had a gun pointed to his back. If he were to try and back down, there was no telling what Ye Qing Huan would do to him… Stay tuned to empire

So he could only go along with her plan.

Lin Fan felt sorry for the other three sects, but at the same time…he couldn't help feeling sorry for himself.

If only he hadn't followed his curiosity and gone to check on the ghosts, perhaps he wouldn't have met Ye Qing Huan like that.

Though thinking about it, would that have really changed anything?

Even if he didn't meet Ye Qing Huan, there was no telling what would have happened since she would have been here in the first place.

There was no doubt that she would have put her plan in action regardless of whether he was here or not…

So the only thing that he could do was stop thinking about it.

Especially since…

"Now that we have some time alone, how about we do a bit of dual cultivation?" Ye Qing Huan asked with a blush on her face.
