With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 616 The bad sides of the Lin Family

They had only been gone for an entire day, so it was considered shorter than how long Lin Li Zi thought she would be gone.

She had been afraid that her mother would relapse during this time, but she should be fine since it was only a day.

After reaching the city, they rushed into the gates.

Luckily, it was already getting dark when they arrived and the gates were about to close, so there weren\'t that many people in line.

Otherwise, they might have been forced to stay outside the gates for the night and stay at one of the inns outside the city instead.

What really helped was Lin Fan\'s B Rank Mercenary License.

This was what caused the guards to act more respectful and let them in.

After they entered the city, Lin Li Zi couldn\'t wait any longer and jumped out of the carriage to run off on her own. She seemed like she was desperate to reach her mother as soon as possible.

Lin Fan just shook his head when he saw her run off, but he didn\'t follow her.

Instead, he found a place to put the horse and carriage that he had bought before going after her.

Since she had the Control Worm inside of her, it was easy for him to find her.

But he didn\'t go to her.

Instead, he went on a different path and arrived at her destination before her. Though he didn\'t go right into her house and instead waited for Lin Li Zi to arrive at the end of her street.

When Lin Li Zi appeared, she couldn\'t help being surprised to see Lin Fan standing there waiting for her.

He just waved his hand with a smile on his face, but Lin Li Zi ignored this and ran for her house.

Lin Fan shook his head with a bitter smile, but he slowly followed her.

He had done all that to get the Blood Lingzhi, if she still wasn\'t saved after all of that, then it would be a waste. At the very least, he wanted to see how effective the Blood Lingzhi would be and if there were any other plots.

But before they could even reach Lin Li Zi\'s mother.

"Ho, I was wondering where this piece of trash had run off to. I never thought that she would actually be able to get the Blood Lingzhi." A voice came from inside of the house when Lin Li Zi ran in.

When Lin Li Zi heard this voice, she immediately knitted her brows and stopped moving.

The hand that was holding the Blood Lingzhi immediately came down and behind her back. The way that she was holding it now almost seemed like she was trying to hide it from the ones in front of her.

But there was no hiding it since they had already seen it.

The owner of the voice and two others came out from the inside of the house. They walked over to where Lin Li Zi was and then with a speed that was too fast for her, they took the Blood Lingzhi from her hand.

She wasn\'t even able to resist at all.

By the time that she noticed what had happened, the Blood Lingzhi was already gone.

"Not bad, not bad, you actually got the Blood Lingzhi. I\'ll take this back and use it to make some tea, it should help with my blood circulation. My back has been bad lately, so this will definitely help."

This time, Lin Li Zi couldn\'t hold herself back.

After all, this was the thing that she needed to save her mother and she couldn\'t let them take it.

But at the same time, it would be hard for her to stop them since she knew who they were.

These were the legitimate descendants of the Lin Family, they were the ones that had tortured her for her entire life. She had already been trained not to go against them through years of being tormented by them.

Still, this was what she needed to save her mother…

So Lin Li Zi said, "Give it back. I need it for my mother."

"Huh?" The three of them said at the same time.

Then they all looked at Lin Li Zi as if she had said something crazy.

The one who held the Blood Lingzhi in his hand narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Li Zi before…suddenly kicking her.

He didn\'t even bother using words as he directly used his foot to knock her down.

Lin Li Zi wasn\'t able to resist at all as she was kicked to the ground and then even stomped on by this person.

The other two quickly joined in on stomping Lin Li Zi.

They didn\'t stomp too hard so that she would be injured since they were just doing it to make themselves feel better.

But they made sure to keep her under them so that she wasn\'t able to do a single thing.

After stomping on her for a while, they finally stopped.

The one holding the Blood Lingzhi looked at Lin Li Zi and said, "Have you learned your lesson yet? Do you really think that trash like you can tell us what to do?"

Lin Li Zi was still lying on the ground, but she reached her hand up as if she wanted to grab the Blood Lingzhi.

Seeing her like this, they didn\'t even bother stomping on her again as they turned to leave.

But before they could…they saw that there was someone standing there.

"Who are…"

Before they could finish, the one holding the Blood Lingzhi found that it had disappeared from his hand.

When they looked at that person again, they found that the Blood Lingzhi was now in his hand.

Lin Fan just casually looked at them and said, "I\'m the one that got this and gave it to her, so I think that I have a right in saying who gets it. The three of you are not worthy."

All three of them looked at Lin Fan in shock as they couldn\'t believe what had just happened.

Not a single one of them had been able to see his movement, but he took the Blood Lingzhi from them.

It was clear that this person was not a normal person.

"Who are you?" The one who had been holding the Blood Lingzhi and seemed to be the leader of this group said.

Lin Fan just gave a shrug and said, "You\'re not someone worthy of an introduction. I suggest you leave now, or else."

The three of them immediately knitted their brows, but the leader raised his hand to stop them before leading the other two out.

Once they were gone, Lin Fan couldn\'t help being surprised how easily they had left.

It seemed almost too easy.

But it wasn\'t as if Lin Fan wasn\'t prepared.

He knew that it was too easy, so he snuck a few things onto them as they left.

Through his ear, he could hear someone whispering something in it.

It was corresponding to the conversation that someone was having outside.

"Are we really just going to leave them like this? Are we really going to let her take that Blood Lingzhi?" One of the subordinates suddenly said this.

The leader slapped that subordinate on the head before saying, "What do you want to do then? Can you do anything to that guy?"

Both of them lowered their heads when they heard this.

It was clear that they knew that they couldn\'t do anything to this mysterious helper that Lin Li Zi had found.

The leader just ignored them and said, "It\'s fine, it isn\'t as if they\'ll be able to do anything even if they got the Blood Lingzhi."

Both of them nodded in agreement before all three of them broke out with evil smiles.

They really were stereotypical villains as they started monologuing their evil plan while walking away.

It turned out that the blood rot that Lin Li Zi\'s mother was suffering from was actually poison.

It was a poison that was similar to blood rot, but it would actually have a reaction with the Blood Lingzhi if it was used to cure it. When it reacted with the Blood Lingzhi, it would actually make her condition worse and push her to death even sooner.

At that time, Lin Li Zi wouldn\'t even know that she had caused her own mother\'s death.

That was just how cruel they were.

Lin Fan couldn\'t help feeling a bit of discomfort when he heard all of this.

It was similar to the experience that the previous host had experienced, which was where that uncomfortable feeling was coming from.

He didn\'t have any interest in the rest of their evil plan.

But at the very least, he knew that there were two sides of the Lin Family.

Those that suffered and those that enjoyed the suffering of others.

He knew which side he would keep and which side he would eliminate.

Lin Fan came forward to help Lin Li Zi stand up.

She took his hand and pulled herself up, but the only thing that she seemed to care for was the Blood Lingzhi in his hand.

However, before she could take it back, Lin Fan suddenly pulled his hand away.

Seeing the way that she looked at him, he said, "Let me try something else first."
