With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods - Chapter 1346 1346: Go away for a while
“It’s been some time since you’ve come to the Heavenly Demon Sect, hasn’t it?”
Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling a bit confused when he heard this question, but he slowly nodded in response.
It had indeed been some time since he had arrived in this place.
He had thought that he would just be here for a while, but everything that had happened had taken quite a bit of time. He was now stuck here thinking about how to set up his faction and everything else.
“Go and take a break. Head back to the Mu Empire for a bit.”
Lin Fan was even more caught off guard when he heard this suggestion from his masters.
He couldn’t help looking at them with a strange look as he tried to figure out what they meant by this, but it didn’t seem like they were planning on telling him anything.
Instead, it seemed like there was something that they were specifically keeping from him.
That was why Lin Fan looked at the others that were in this room with them.
The Heavenly Demon just looked back at him with a calm look on his face, but it seemed like Ye Qing Huan had a trace of guilt. It seemed like there was something that she was keeping from him as well.
So in the end, Lin Fan said with a sigh, “I won’t leave unless I know what is going on.”
His two masters revealed wry smiles when they heard this, but it also seemed like there was a trace of pride that was in their eyes as they looked at him. It seemed like they were proud that he was sticking to his guns like this.
“Ha, ha, ha, I told you that he wouldn’t be that easy to convince.” The Heavenly Demon suddenly broke the silence by breaking out in laughter, to which Ye Qing Huan glared at him for this.
Still, the Heavenly Demon said, “I’ll be honest with you, it’s for the best if you leave for a bit. We still have to prepare for your next breakthrough now that you’ve gathered this item formed from pure elemental energy. Your last breakthrough might have been quite easy, but there’s no telling if it’ll be the same this time.”
“Do you think that I’ll skip all the way into the next realm?”
The Heavenly Demon gave a firm nod without any hesitation.
The way that he looked at Lin Fan as he gave this nod made Lin Fan feel quite awkward, but it wasn’t as if didn’t know why the Heavenly Demon was looking at him like this.
The Heavenly Demon had already offered him the opportunity to become the Heavenly Demon after him, so Lin Fan knew how seriously the Heavenly Demon treated him.
It was just that he still couldn’t understand why the Heavenly Demon would feel this way about him.
“What about the elders?” Lin Fan changed the topic by asking this.
“What will they say? They’ve already gotten what they wanted and they’ll think that you’ll be able to give them something else once you absorb this new pure elemental energy. They’ll gladly wait for you.” The Heavenly Demon said with a confident smile.
Lin Fan also felt that this was the case, but it was a different feeling having the Heavenly Demon personally confirm this.
Though this wasn’t the only thing that he was concerned about.
“There’s something that will be announced soon that will distract everyone from their faction competition. You don’t have to worry about this since this is something that we’ve set up so that they won’t bother you.” The Heavenly Demon said as if he could read Lin Fan’s mind.
However, Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing a doubtful look when he heard this.
After all, he didn’t believe that the elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect would go this far just for someone like him. It was one thing if they were to suppress their disciples and stop them from messing with him, but to completely stop the competition between them…
No matter how Lin Fan looked at it, it really seemed like something was off about the Heavenly Demon Sect.
It seemed like they were just trying to get Lin Fan to leave this place…
Lin Fan really wanted to say something, but the Heavenly Demon’s gaze suddenly changed as he said, “I know what you want to say, but there’s really nothing that you can do to help. For someone like you who has only been here for a while, you’ll just get in the way if you insist on staying.”
Lin Fan bit his lips and swallowed his words when he said this.
When the Heavenly Demon went this far, he really couldn’t say anything even if there were words that he wanted to say. It felt like there was something that was stuck in his throat that he just couldn’t let out.
At the same time, it was as if he was being excluded even though he had already started to see these people as part of his inner circle.
Only there really wasn’t anything that Lin Fan could do with his current strength.
After a long silence, Lin Fan took a deep breath and said, “Alright, I’ll head back then.”
With that, he stood up and turned to leave.
There was nothing else that he had to say in this situation, so he could only turn to go.
Seeing this, Ye Qing Huan seemed to hesitate a bit as she turned to look at the Heavenly Demon. In response to this, the Heavenly Demon gave a nod as if he was encouraging her to go.
However, there wasn’t anything that Ye Qing Huan could say as she followed behind Lin Fan who didn’t say anything either.
After all, she knew what the reason was and she wasn’t willing to tell him.
The longer that she kept this in, the more guilt that she felt.
But Ye Qing Huan knew that her master and her two martial uncles were right to keep this from Lin Fan. After all, this was something that was just too dangerous for him to get involved with right now.
Once the two of them were gone, both the Poison King and the Fire Fist King let out sighs of regret.
The two of them really seemed like they weren’t happy about the way that they were treating Lin Fan, but it wasn’t as if they had a choice on this matter.
“I know how you two are feeling, but this isn’t something that we’re even telling the rest of the disciples. So of course it’s only natural that we would keep it from him as well. I’m sure that you want to keep him safe, right?”
The two of them narrowed their eyes to look at the Heavenly Demon as if they weren’t happy with what he said, but they didn’t refute it either.
So in the end, the Heavenly Demon changed the topic.
Though before doing so, he raised his hand to give a wave which created a layer of energy around them.
If anyone else was here, they would have been shocked by this since it was as if the space in front of them had suddenly been ripped away. It was as if space itself was isolated with the way that the Heavenly Demon’s barrier blocked it off.
As long as they weren’t in the Transcendence Realm, they wouldn’t be able to see through this barrier.
That was just how seriously the three of them took this.
Only after this barrier was formed did the Heavenly Demon say, “This is a matter that will involve the safety of the entire continent, so we really have no choice but to cooperate with those righteous sects.”
When the Poison King and the Fire Fist King heard this, the two of them revealed slightly unhappy looks. Though it didn’t seem like they were going to refute what the Heavenly Demon said.
“Who will go with you?” The Fire Fist King asked in a heavy voice.
“Well, this isn’t something that can be taken lightly since we don’t know what the other sects are planning. However, it should be fine to go with a small group since it isn’t as if they are crazy enough to do anything.” The Heavenly Demon said in a slow voice as if he was thinking it through.
The Poison King said with a nod, “Right, they are the ones that are suffering more than we are. After all, they have a bigger territory than us and more things to worry about.”
“How long do you think we still have?” The Heavenly Demon suddenly changed the tone of the conversation by asking this.
Neither the Poison King or the Fire Fist King said anything in response to this.
The two of them looked like they were seriously pondering this at first, but eventually both of them shook their heads and the Poison King said, “It’s hard to tell. After all, there’s no telling what those people from those other continents are thinking. There’s just too much of a difference between us to guess what they want.”
The Fire Fist King nodded in agreement without adding anything.
The Heavenly Demon also nodded in agreement, but his expression turned serious as he said, “Regardless of what they want, we’ll just stop them like we did last time.”
At this, both the Poison King and the Fire Fist King revealed serious looks as well before nodding in agreement to this.
