With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods - Chapter 1448: A base

Neither Lin Fan or Ye Qing Huan said anything after the old man disappeared.

The two of them just silently watched to see what the little Holy Spirit Flame named Xiao Sheng would do.

After all, Xiao Sheng had been silently watching as the old man disappeared.

She had ignored the old man at first, but it was hard for her to keep acting when the old man actually started to disappear. At some point, the old man was the only thing that she was paying attention to.

So that was why they felt that they should give her some time to process this.

But in the end, it seemed like they didn’t need to do anything.

“Hmm, lecturing me until the very end. That old man can go wherever he wants for all I care.” Xiao Sheng suddenly let out this outburst.

Lin Fan and Ye Qing Huan couldn’t help shaking their heads with a wry smile when they heard this, but it wasn’t as if there was anything that they could say to this little Holy Spirit Flame.

After all, they had only met this little Holy Spirit Flame not that long ago and didn’t know that much about it other than what the old man told them. So even if they wanted to say something, they didn’t know if it was right.

“I’ll go in for a bit now.” Xiao Sheng said after turning to look back at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan didn’t need to ask to know what she was talking about, but he didn’t agree with what she said. After thinking about it, he pulled her in close and said through voice transmission, “Don’t resist, I’ll send you to a better place. It’s better if you’re not alone during this time.”

“What are you…”

Xiao Sheng didn’t get to finish what she wanted to say before she was pulled into some different space.

It was the Pet Storage Space that Lin Fan pulled the Holy Spirit Flame into.

He also asked the pets inside of the Pet Storage Space to watch over Xiao Sheng during this time.

After all, it was best that she wasn’t left alone at this time.

Once she was gone, Ye Qing Huan moved onto the next topic without any hesitation.

“What do you think we should do now?”

Lin Fan knew what she was asking even though she was using this roundabout method.

She wasn’t actually asking about where they should go next in these Dao Sect ruins. Rather, she was asking about what they should do about the unique situation that they were in right now.

It wasn’t as if this was a bad situation to be in since it gave them quite the advantage over the others.

The words that the old man left behind made it clear that they had something that no one else in this place had now that they had completed this trial.

No, even if they had completed this trial, it wouldn’t have been enough for them to gain this advantage. It was only because of the token that Lin Fan possessed that they were able to obtain this advantage.

Lin Fan didn’t actually respond to her as he went over to observe the door to this place.

Before this, the Holy Spirit Flame had acted as a sort of spirit that controlled this entire place. But now that the inheritance had been completed and Lin Fan had taken the Holy Spirit Flame away, it could be said that there was no longer a master here.

However, that didn’t mean that this place couldn’t be controlled.

Even if the spirit that had been controlling the arrays that protected this place was gone, it wasn’t as if the arrays had disappeared. Since they were still here, all that was needed to control them was some kind of medium.

Lin Fan was holding said medium in his hand.

After walking over to the door Lin Fan was about to do something with it before he realized something and stopped himself.

He walked out further to the other door that led to this place.

This was the door that was further out and was the door that led to the training area.

After closing that door, he could tell that there was some kind of lock that was engaged that stopped him from opening the door again. This was a special kind of lock that used the arrays of the Dao Sect, so he wouldn’t be able to break it open with force.

However, it did open the moment that he pressed the token against it.

“So this really is some kind of key…But who owned this before?” Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling curious about the previous owner of this token after seeing this, but it wasn’t as if he could actually answer that question.

Regardless, it did confirm what the old man said.

As long as he had this thing, it would mean that they would be able to lock this place up and stop anyone from entering it.

It would mean that they would be able to control who entered and left this place.

That meant that they would be able to turn this place into a base that no one else would be able to enter.

A base in a place like this would without a doubt give them an advantage over everyone else that was in these Dao Sect ruins.

There was no telling what hid in these ruins and one would have to risk their life and limb to just find what they wanted to find.

But if they had a base in a place like this, they would be able to have a place to retreat to when things became bad. At the same time, they would have a place that was safe to rest up and regain their strength for further exploration.

At the same time, it wasn’t just them alone that would benefit from this.

This was a place that could be shared with others since Lin Fan was the one that was in control of this place.

Once it was confirmed that Lin Fan could control this place, Ye Qing Huan just said, “It’s up to you what you want to do.”

It seemed like she was completely handing over the reins of this matter to Lin Fan. Even though she was supposed to be the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s disciple group, she was just leaving everything in Lin Fan’s hands.

Lin Fan felt a bit of a wry feeling fill him when he heard this since she was basically dumping this matter on him.

However, it didn’t matter since he knew that this was her trust in him.

If she didn’t trust him, she definitely wouldn’t have handed the lives of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s core disciples to him. They were the core disciples and the future of the Heavenly Demon Sect, one wrong move would be disastrous.

So it was clear what kind of faith she had in him.

Only Lin Fan didn’t feel like there was a need to include everyone…

“We’ll set up a base here first and slowly bring them in. There’s no need to bring everyone in yet since we still need them to explore for us.”

This was a coldhearted plan to even use the Heavenly Demon Sect disciples like this, but it didn’t seem like Ye Qing Huan was against it. It seemed like Ye Qing Huan was even all for this.

It wasn’t that she didn’t have any love for her fellow disciples, it was just that there was no need to be this worried about them.

In the first place, everyone would be cautious at first and wouldn’t provoke something they shouldn’t provoke. No one was dumb enough to be the first one to set something off when there were others to do it first.

It was only when they became impatient that it would be dangerous.

But before that, they would have already set up their base and planned things out.

So it could be said that everything was in the palm of their hands at this moment.

As long as they used this place as a proper base and observed the rest of the ruins, there was no doubt that they would be able to get a large harvest this time.

It was just that this wasn’t the only thing that they had.

Lin Fan took out the map once more and started looking at it carefully.

Even if there was no need for them to risk their lives exploring this place since they had this base and could watch as everyone else fought, it wasn’t as if Lin Fan was willing to sit back either.

It was one thing if they didn’t have any information at all, but Lin Fan had something in his hands that changed the entire game. The map had already led him to this place that gave him this base and there were other similar marks on the map.

If he were to follow them as well, then there was no telling what he would be able to find in those places.

It was now a matter of how much they should save their energy with this base that they created and how much they should still explore before others found these places. It really was a perfect balance of risk and reward.

“We can still explore a few of these places.”

Though Ye Qing Huan handed over leadership, she still made this tough decision for Lin Fan.

Lin Fan just nodded with a smile as he didn’t argue with her.

He trusted her just like she trusted him.
