With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Lin Fan knitted his brows immediately.

He knew that this matter wouldn\'t end this simply, but he didn\'t know what the president would do.

But this still caught him off guard since he never expected that he would just want to exchange a few words with him.

After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan gave a nod and followed the president off to the side.

Once they were alone, the president looked at Lin Fan and asked, "This friend, may I ask why you are in this city?"

Lin Fan just calmly replied, "I\'m here for some business."

The president slightly knitted his brows as he asked, "Are you here for some mission or something like that?"

Lin Fan raised his hand to stop him as he said, "That information is private. Doesn\'t the Mercenary Guild\'s rules state that mercenaries are free to move as they wish? I don\'t think that there\'s a need for you to know what reason I have for coming to this city."

The president\'s brows relaxed when he heard this, but there was a slight chill that appeared in his eyes instead as he said, "Is that so?"

Lin Fan just nodded in response to this.

The president was silent for a bit before suddenly saying, "Of course you\'re right. You have the right to come and go as you please, I don\'t have a reason to question you on this." Then his voice turned cold as he said, "Just as you have the right to come and go as you please, I also have my right to ask you these questions."

After a short pause, the president added, "I urge you to leave this city as soon as possible."

Lin Fan knitted his brows as he looked at the president and asked, "And if I don\'t?"

The president just smiled and answered without really answering, "I wonder."

After saying this, the president moved aside to let Lin Fan pass as if he was saying that this talk was over.

Lin Fan calmly looked at the president for a few seconds before walking past him.

But the moment that he walked past, he suddenly felt a strong pressure falling onto him. He turned to look at the president who had a smile on his face that didn\'t reach his eyes and the president said, "I hope that you will take my advice."

The pressure lasted a few more seconds before it completely disappeared.

At the same time, the president also disappeared from Lin Fan\'s vision.

He had been there one second and the next, he was gone.

Lin Fan\'s eyes weren\'t able to keep up with the speed that the president had moved at and he had disappeared before he knew it.

As he looked at where the president had been standing, he couldn\'t help giving a sigh.

He knew that this was the difference in cultivation between them. If they were to fight for real, he wouldn\'t be able to resist.

Even though he had already reached the Peak Ninth Qi Gathering Realm, that still couldn\'t compare to the might of the Foundation Realm.

But there was still the problem with the Mercenary Guild and the City Lord Manor that he had to consider. He was certain that not only the Mercenary Guild, but the City Lord Manor, or rather the Yong Family would have Foundation Realm Experts at their disposal.

He wouldn\'t be able to take them on alone, so he would need some help.

After thinking this, Lin Fan decided to talk to Ouyang Qian about sending some messages after he finished with the owner of the bar.

So Lin Fan went back to where the owner of the bar and Xiao Huo\'s group was before heading back to the bar together.

As they headed off, on one of the upper floors of the Mercenary Guild, the president watched them leave from a window.

The room that he was in was completely silent, but that didn\'t mean that it was empty.

Standing by the entrance with their heads bowed were the members of the inquisition squad who didn\'t dare make a sound. They didn\'t even dare breathe too loudly out of fear that they would catch the president\'s attention.

But eventually what would come came to them.

The president turned his eyes away from the window and turned to look at the inquisition squad who had their heads down. After a long period of silence, he finally said, "Who was the one that made the decision to bring those kids in today?"

Everyone gave a sudden gulp when they heard this, but not a single person dared to say a thing.

After all, if they were to speak up in this situation, there was no doubt that they would be the one to draw the wrath of the president.

Of course, it wasn\'t as if they could avoid all of this just by staying silent. The president clearly wanted answers and the longer that they stayed silent, the angrier that he would get. The angrier he became, the worse it would become for them later on.

So with no other choice, the leader of the inquisition squad said, "We received a report from the research lab and they stated that they wanted to question the ones that we sent on the mission today."

The president narrowed his eyes as he raised his hand.

The inquisition squad leader naturally knew what he was asking for and he quickly pulled out a folder for the president.

The president opened it and gave it a few casual looks before throwing it in the face of the inquisition squad leader. The inquisition squad leader didn\'t dare say a thing as he just stood there taking it.

The president narrowed his eyes to look at the inquisition squad leader and said, "Tell those idiots that if they mess this up again, I\'ll personally come and take care of them."

A chill ran down the spines of all the inquisition squad members, but the inquisition squad leader still nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I will pass on your words, sir."

The president then turned around to look back at the window before asking, "Did you get any information on that Special A Rank Mercenary?"

The inquisition squad leader jolted before saying, "I\'ve tried getting information from headquarters, but you know how it is with those special mercenaries. Unless we have a clear reason why we need this information, they won\'t give it to us and we can\'t just say that…we want it because he suddenly came to Brilliant Light City."

The president narrowed his eyes to look at the inquisition squad leader and said, "What about information on him?"

The inquisition squad leader revealed a difficult look and said, "We\'ve tried with headquarters, but it\'s the same situation…"

The president slapped the inquisition squad leader on the head and said, "Who said to ask headquarters? Can\'t you get information on him from other sources?"

The difficult look on the inquisition squad leader\'s face became even more awkward as he said, "We weren\'t able to find anything on him at all. It\'s as if he never existed up to this point."

Of course, what he meant by that was that Lin Fan had never done anything to catch anyone\'s attention, so no one knew about him.

Records in this ancient cultivation world naturally weren\'t as good as the modern world filled with modern technology and records. So unless someone did something important that would be spread between towns, most people wouldn\'t be able to get any information on them if they tried to search them up.

The matter of the dungeon town was known by people, but what people didn\'t know was that Lin Fan was the chief of that town since he never really did anything that he should do. It was mainly Yue Lan who did all the work, so everyone thought that she was the chief even though she told everyone that she wasn\'t.

If looks could kill, the president\'s eyes would have finished off the inquisition squad leader.

But he also knew that there wasn\'t anything that could be done since he knew how effective his subordinate was.

If he wasn\'t able to get any information after doing all of this, then that meant that there was no information that they would be able to find. However, that didn\'t make any sense at all.

For someone to reach the Special A Rank, they normally would have had to do many things to receive the recognition of the Mercenary Guild headquarters. There was normally no way that someone who reached the Special A Rank would be an obscure person.

But even headquarters had confirmed Lin Fan\'s identity, so there was no mistaking it…

What should he do now?

Would Lin Fan be a stumbling block or would he be a stepping stone?

Only time would tell.

Still, he wasn\'t willing to sit around doing nothing during this time.

The president turned back to the inquisition squad leader and asked, "Did you send people to tail him?"

The inquisition squad leader immediately gave a nod and said, "Yes, as soon as they left, I sent people to follow and observe…"

But before he could finish those words, there was someone that suddenly rushed in and said, "Sir, the watchers that we sent, we\'ve lost all contact with them!"

As soon as they heard this, the expressions of both the president and the inquisition squad leader changed.

One was filled with rage and one was filled with absolute shock and fear.
