With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

There were a total of five people from the Love Sect that had been captured by Han Fu Rong.

He had used the same poison to knock them out and brought them to a secret manor outside of the city and even outside of the country. He brought them across the border and then stashed them in a manor in the wilderness.

He also said that there weren't any guards in that manor and there was only a single maid there who took care of the needs of his captives, but Lin Fan was very doubtful of this.

The main thing was that this was the place that the people he had worked with told him to stash the people of the Love Sect they caught until they were able to come and collect them.

As for when they would come and do that, that was something that Han Fu Rong didn't know.

After getting all this information, Lin Fan fell into deep thought in the study of the manor.

Mu Bao Bao wasn't in a rush like before. After experiencing what had happened with Han Fu Rong, she knew that it was better to take it slow and plan things out before taking action.

Since Lin Fan was clearly better than her at this, she left everything to him.

But Lin Fan was currently having a headache at this moment.

It would be easier if this manor was in the Mu Empire, but the wilderness made it harder…

The wilderness was a place where anything could happen since anything could show up there. That was why humans built borders around this wilderness and guarded against it.

Not to mention, he wasn't certain if Han Fu Rong was telling the truth or not about the manor.

He seemed like he was telling the truth, but there was always the possibility that he was lying or there were just things that he didn't know about the manor.

Then there was that Elder Rong that he had mentioned before that had given him everything he had used. He didn't know if that Elder Rong was at the manor, but he was certain that this Elder Rong wouldn't just leave everything to Han Fu Rong and leave the area.

So with all these different variables, Lin Fan didn't know what to do. In fact, there were many things that he didn't feel comfortable doing and he even thought about abandoning the people from the Love Sect to their fate…

However, he knew that Mu Bao Bao would never approve of this plan…

So he had to think of something.

After thinking for a long time, he came to the only choice that he had.

He had to go himself and search the manor, he couldn't send any scouts because that would just be playing with other people's lives.

He knew that it was too dangerous for any of his subordinates to go. It was only safe for him to go because he had the long range scouting abilities of Greeny, so he could scout the manor out without too much danger.

But to say it wasn't without danger was a lie.

But at least it was better than putting his subordinates in danger.

So after thinking this through, he told Mu Bao Bao the plan.

Mu Bao Bao immediately said, "No, I won't let you do that!"

Lin Fan had already expected this, so his hands had been out to stop her from charging him which she still did. Of course, with the disparity in level of cultivation, Lin Fan wasn't able to stop her and both of them fell back.

It was a good thing that they had been discussing this in Lin Fan's room. So even though the two of them fell, they just landed on the soft and fluffy bed behind them.

With everything that they had been through together, their faces couldn't help turning red when they were put in this ambiguous situation.

But of course, they remembered that they were discussing something serious and quickly stood up again.

After taking a moment to calm down, Mu Bao Bao said in a voice that was firmer than before, "You say that you're the only one that can do this, but aren't you forgetting about someone?" She raised a fist and looked at him with narrowed eyes as she said, "Or are you saying that you can beat me?"

This threat just showed how much she cared about Lin Fan, but there was a hint of doubt in her own eyes.

She had already underestimated Han Fu Rong and had always suffered at his hands, so she couldn't even imagine what tricks the people who were above Han Fu Rong would have.

It was very likely that she would be in danger if she went, but she rather that she be in danger than for Lin Fan to be in danger.

She was the one who had forced the fate of the Love Sect onto Lin Fan and after everything that he had done, she felt guilty. There was nothing that she could give him as far as she was concerned and she had put this large responsibility on him.

But what she didn't know was that she had given Lin Fan plenty.

After all, the inheritance that she had received from the Love Sect was fully shared with Lin Fan. The value of this was hard to estimate since this was the full inheritance of a sect, so even if Lin Fan risked his life, it wasn't considered too much.

But Mu Bao Bao didn't think so.

Lin Fan could naturally tell what she was thinking, but just like her, he didn't want her to be in danger either.

At the very least, he had the special golden finger known as the system by his side. In a worst case scenario, he would be able to use the system's store to find something to save himself.

It wasn't the same for Mu Bao Bao since she wasn't from another world like him.

It was just a good thing that he had already tamed Mu Bao Bao or it really would be hard for him to take care of her.

During their time together, her affection kept increasing until it had reached 80.

Lin Fan's taming system wasn't like a normal taming beast taming system where it would force the things that he tamed to obey him. After all, a pet that completely obeyed wasn't considered a proper tame, or at least according to the system.

Taming for the Love Gauge Taming skill meant establishing a contract where they were bound to Lin Fan for life, but if they completely obeyed all his orders, that was no different from a slave. So instead of completely obeying him, the effects of taming someone meant that they were more prone to listen to his suggestions based on how much affection they had.

With the 80 affection that he had with Mu Bao Bao, it didn't take long before he was able to slowly coax her into accepting his suggestion. Otherwise, it really would have been impossible to convince her with her sometimes stubborn personality.

After he finished convincing her, Lin Fan didn't have her stay in his room like he normally would have and had her go accompany Xiao Ming.

As she left, Mu Bao Bao looked at Lin Fan with a confused and unwilling look, but she still left the room.

This was unlike Lin Fan's normal behaviour, but he had something special happen today that he had to check out.

When he opened his taming window, he found that there was a new tab that had opened up.

Instead of the normal taming tab, there was a tab that had opened up for disciples and there was only a single name there. It was Xiao Ming who he had just taken as his disciple.

Under her name, there wasn't the normal affection stat, but rather a new stat called piety.

Lin Fan had noticed this earlier when he had taken Xiao Ming as his disciple, but he had been busy with other things that he hadn't been able to take the time to look at it until now. But he couldn't help finding it strange that his Love Gauge Taming Skill would suddenly evolve at this time and include a new section.

There wasn't much that this screen told him, so Lin Fan chose to use his Appraisal Eyes to see what this new disciple tab was about.

However, even with the Appraisal Eyes, he didn't receive much information. The only thing that he found was a screen that popped up when he looked at the piety stat.

Piety: A measure of the disciple's respect for the master. The higher this is, the greater the learning effect of the master's teaching will be.

Lin Fan had to take a moment to think about this clearly before his eyes popped out. He stared at the window and looked it over again, trying to find anything that was wrong with this screen.

But even after looking at it seriously for five minutes, he couldn't find anything new or anything wrong with it.

Wasn't this new stat a bit broken?

As long as they were recognized as his disciple, that meant that they would receive a buff to their cultivation speed…

Wasn't this too broken!?

It was a perfect addition for him who had a task of rebuilding the Love Sect. After all, if the disciples that joined the Love Sect afterwards were affected by this skill, wouldn't that mean that the entire sect would be able to cultivate much faster than other sects?

With this increase in cultivation speed, even the disciples with the most normal level of talent would be able to cultivate as fast as the top geniuses of other sects as long as they had enough piety towards him.

Wasn't this too broken!??!

This was a perfect addition for him who had the task of rebuilding the Love Sect since it would mean that they would be able to nurture many loyal disciples to the sect.

But after calming down a bit, Lin Fan suddenly realized that this skill wasn't as broken as it seemed.

After all, it only applied to people who were considered disciples to him.

Perhaps if he was the sect master, he would be able to get away with the justification that everyone in the Love Sect was like a disciple to him, but he wasn't the sect master after all. He was only the disciple of the sect master, so it wasn't as if everyone who joined the Love Sect in the future would be related to him.

As this thought passed through his mind, he couldn't help also thinking about asking Mu Bao Bao to let him become the sect master…

But he quickly gave up this idea since he knew that this was a bad idea.

So after calming down, he started looking at this disciple tab again and carefully thinking about how he could make the best use of this in the future.

However, as he was thinking, he suddenly realized something.

Taking in his first disciple had opened up this disciple tab, so did that mean that there were other tabs that could be unlocked?

For example…subordinates?

If he could also affect his subordinates through this, wouldn't that mean that he would also be able to help Yue Lan strengthen all the staff members under her?

But as he thought about this, he realized that it wouldn't be that easy or else it would have happened already. After all, there were so many subordinates under him right now, so if there was such a tab, it would have opened already.

So he couldn't help thinking about what other tabs could be opened within this Love Gauge Taming Skill.

It seemed that there were still many things that he didn't know about this skill that the God of Earth gave him and he couldn't help becoming more and more curious about it.
