With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Throughout the city, the rumour of a new bounty being released was spread.

A bounty normally wouldn\'t be that important of a matter, but this one was different since this was a bounty that was sponsored by the City Lord Manor.

As for who that bounty was on…it was naturally the one who had caused the incident yesterday.

No one knew who that person was, but that stunt that they had pulled had provoked many different people.

While the public face of it was a bounty from the City Lord Manor, it was actually found in many different places. That included both the Mercenary Guild and the Merchants Guild.

Both of these organizations were sponsors for the tournament, so the tournament being disrupted meant that their businesses were also being disrupted.

At the same time, there were other organizations that also sponsored this bounty that put up posters for this bounty in their stores. These were all businesses that were related to the powers behind the seeded contestants.

This tournament was important for them, so anyone that was causing trouble during this tournament would be considered an enemy to them.

With all of these organizations backing this bounty, there were plenty of people who were interested in taking it.

But of course, not a single one of them was able to find a clue.

Among the people that were interested in this bounty, that included Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao.

However, what they were interested in was not the money, but rather the person that had caused the incident. 

After all, the person that had caused it was most likely the person from the Love Sect that they thought it was.

So during the day off, they started investigating this matter as well.

It was just too bad that they weren\'t able to find a single trace just like everyone else.

Lin Fan had even had an advantage over others when it came to finding information.

He had sent Greeny\'s puppets all over the city to find clues of this person.

At the same time, he had sent Greeny\'s puppets into the arena that had been completely closed off. No one else was able to search the arena since it had been completely shut off by the organizers.

There were special experts called by the organizers to search the premises for the culprit.

Though Lin Fan watched them for a while with Greeny, he saw that they weren\'t able to find the person who had caused the incident.

He also wasn\'t able to find a single trace with his Appraisal Eyes.

Whoever had caused this incident had clearly made sure that they wouldn\'t leave a single trace of themselves behind. It was clear that they had been very careful when planning this incident.

So neither Lin Fan or Mu Bao Bao were able to do a thing about it.

When night fell, they were exhausted as they headed out to the bar.

This had been their routine for the past few days since they were here to get more information while the tournament was ongoing.

There were more people here now that the tournament was ongoing, so there was no fear of exposing themselves if they just sat there in the corner listening.

But of course, Lin Fan made sure that Mu Bao Bao didn\'t get any wine.

After the incident that had happened last time, he didn\'t dare let his guard down and let Mu Bao Bao get any alcohol.

Mu Bao Bao was very ignorant of what had happened last time, so she kept asking for some alcohol to help her blend in. But Lin Fan firmly rejected this request and made sure that she stuck to the juice offered.

Mu Bao Bao was happy to have the juice, but she still kept complaining about how it was wrong to drink juice in a bar and it just made them look suspicious.

But Lin Fan could tell that what she really wanted to complain about was that it made her seem childish that she was drinking juice in a bar.

Still, Lin Fan couldn\'t let an incident like last time happen again, so he was very strict about not letting her drink.

As they sat there listening to the gossip around them, they weren\'t able to hear anything new.

As Lin Fan had expected, there wasn\'t a single person who had been able to find a lead as to the culprit from yesterday. 

There were some fake rumours that were spread, but it didn\'t take long for these rumours to break down. The ones who spread these fake rumours weren\'t able to keep their stories straight under the effects of the alcohol, so he disregarded all of the fake rumours that he heard.

As time passed and they weren\'t able to find any information at all, Lin Fan couldn\'t help feeling more and more depressed.

In the end, he decided to stop listening for information and head back to the hotel.

Instead of wasting this time trying to find rumours, it was better to spend the time that they had cultivating.

Lin Fan could feel that he was close to breaking through, it wouldn\'t take long for him to make a breakthrough to the next realm.

If he could break through, he was certain that his power would reach a whole new level.

But when they were planning on leaving, there was a sudden commotion that happened around them.

When the two of them looked around themselves, they found that everyone in the bar was currently looking out the window. When they looked out themselves, they found that there was some kind of glow coming from outside.

It was quite strong that it forced quite a few people to squint their eyes.

But for Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao, they were able to stare out without a problem.

It was just that they couldn\'t see what it was while staring out.

So the two of them had no choice but to come out of the bar and see what it was.

When they came out, they found that the people around them were all staring into the sky, seemingly looking at something.

When they looked up as well, they revealed different expressions.

Lin Fan had a confused look while Mu Bao Bao had a very shocked look.

It was a good thing that they had cloaks on or people definitely would have noticed this.

But for Lin Fan, he was able to tell what Mu Bao Bao was feeling based on her body expressions alone.

However, this wasn\'t the place to talk about it.

Before they attracted any attention, Lin Fan quickly took Mu Bao Bao by the shoulders and led her away from this place. He quickly led her through different streets before they finally came back to their inn.

He had made sure that no one had followed them by taking those different streets so that he could check the surrounding area with Greeny.

Once they arrived in the hotel room, Lin Fan quickly put up the barrier around them before turning to look at Mu Bao Bao.

Mu Bao Bao just sat there on the bed in a daze, not even registering that they were back in the hotel room.

It was finally when Lin Fan tapped her on the shoulder that she came back to her senses.

But then she looked like she was about to fall back into the same daze as before.

Before she could, Lin Fan grabbed her by the shoulder and asked, "What\'s wrong?"

Mu Bao Bao didn\'t say anything as she just looked at Lin Fan in a daze.

Lin Fan didn\'t hold back this time and brought his hands down across her cheeks, giving her a gentle slap to wake her up before saying, "It\'s alright, you can tell me."

Mu Bao Bao looked at him in a daze before suddenly coming forward to hug him.

Lin Fan was caught off guard by this, but he still patted her on the back before saying, "It\'s alright, I\'m here."

After a long time, Mu Bao Bao finally pulled her face out of his embrace. Lin Fan could see that there were still traces of tears that were in her eyes.

She stared at him for a bit before saying, "That mark just now, that was the mark to retreat that was passed down in the Love Sect. They were sending a message to me to leave this place and not disrupt their plan…"

Then after a pause, she said, "Why don\'t they want me here? I\'m here to help them, so why don\'t they want me here?"

As she said this, Lin Fan could hear the genuine hurt that came from her voice.

He knew what she was feeling, but he didn\'t comfort her or coddle her like he normally would. Instead, he said, "Why do you think that it was for you?"

"Huh?" Mu Bao Bao couldn\'t help being surprised by what he said.

Lin Fan then said, "We never left any signs as to who we were, so how would they know that it was you?"

Mu Bao Bao couldn\'t help feeling that he was right and she was stunned as she realized this.

But then she asked, "Why would they use that symbol to send a message?"

Lin Fan just calmly said, "They must have thought that it was someone from the Love Sect who had made it to the door that they had left."

Mu Bao Bao shook her head in a confused manner before saying, "How would they know that?"

Lin Fan shook his head before saying, "I don\'t know, but that seems like the more likely explanation, right?"

Mu Bao Bao fell silent after hearing this, but she still gave a nod in response in the end.

After calming down and thinking about it, she realized that Lin Fan was right.

There was no reason that they would suspect that it was her, so the only explanation was that they thought it was someone else from the Love Sect.

After thinking this through, she couldn\'t help pouting her lips as she looked at Lin Fan and asked, "Do you really think that it\'s not because it was me?"

This time, Lin Fan didn\'t have the same serious tone.

Instead, he revealed his usual gentle tone as he patted her head and said, "They couldn\'t have known that it was you. It wasn\'t a personal message, it was just a message for anyone that could have been affiliated with the Love Sect."

Mu Bao Bao looked into his eyes for a few seconds before giving a nod and saying, "Un."
