With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

The look of doubt that was on Xiao Ming's face became even deeper when she heard this.

She looked at this young man who called himself Mo Sha standing in front of her like she was judging him, but he didn't turn away at all. He just stood there with a calm look on his face, as if he was welcoming her to judge him.

Finally, Xiao Ming said, "Why would you want to do that? I don't think there's any merit in creating an alliance with us right now."

Mo Sha suddenly revealed a smile when he heard this, but he didn't answer that question. Instead, he said in a casual voice, "Do you know what these sects call our Demon Palm Sect?"

Xiao Ming was surprised by this question, but she shook her head since she didn't know.

Mo Sha said with the same smile, "It's already in the name of our sect, but they call us a demonic path sect. So in the first place, it isn't as if we are friends with these sects in the first place. It doesn't matter to us if they dislike us in the first place."

After saying this, he gave a shrug before continuing, "So that's why there's nothing to lose from us making friends with you. Though if you think about it, it would be you who would have something to lose from becoming friends with our sect."

Xiao Ming was confused at first, but she quickly understood what he was talking about.

A demonic sect, it was a sect that many orthodox sects looked down on.

So by becoming friends with a demonic sect, it would make their reputation even worse.

Not to mention, it would cause a strain with the Martial Might Sect that they were supposed to be friends with.

But in the first place, it wasn't as if the Love Sect cared about the relationship with the Martial Might Sect in the first place. The Martial Might Sect was the one that came on strong with the friend act with the Love Sect, so it wasn't as if they could do anything.

If the Martial Might Sect were to give up if they became friends with this Demon Palm Sect…that would be good for them.

Still, Xiao Ming didn't accept Mo Sha's offer that quickly since there was no telling what his real intentions were.

In a calm voice, Xiao Ming said, "Let's not talk about this for now. If you really want to form an alliance with us, I wait to see your sincerity."

Mo Sha was surprised when he heard this, but he quickly revealed a smile and said, "Alright, we'll be sure to show our sincerity in the future."

Without saying another word, Mo Sha turned to leave.

But there was still a smile on his face as he turned around.

Xiao Ming narrowed her eyes for a bit to stare in the direction that he walked off in, but then she also led her group away.

In the sky, Lin Fan watched all of this with a smile.

Earlier, when the elders of the three sects that the three groups came from wanted to interfere, Lin Fan had been there to stop them.

He had been watching over the entire thing with Elder Qian, but that also made things awkward because of Tang Chen.

When this matter was settled, Elder Qian said to Lin Fan with a bow, "I never expected a disciple of our Martial Might Sect to be of such character. I promise that I will handle this matter for Sect Master Lin."

Lin Fan was naturally surprised to hear him say this since he thought that Elder Qian would side with the Martial Might Sect disciple over outsiders.

In the end, he didn't think too much of it and just casually said, "It's just a small matter, there's no need to make a big fuss over it."

But once again, to his surprise, Elder Qian shook his head and said, "No, I will give a proper explanation to Sect Master Lin."

Lin Fan didn't think too much about it as they returned to their residence.

When Elder Qian left, the disciples of the Love Sect came back.

When Lin Fan and the elders asked them about what happened, the disciples told them that nothing special happened.

Seeing the kids acting tough like this, Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a faint smile.

But there was one thing that Xiao Ming did report to Lin Fan.

"A sect called the Demon Palm Sect wanted to form an alliance with us. We told them that we would wait for their sincerity instead of directly accepting their offer, but maybe I should have accepted it?"

Xiao Ming was asking Lin Fan for advice, so Lin Fan naturally didn't hold back in helping her.

With a shake of his head, he said, "There's no need to rush these things. Sometimes, you need to wait and see what the other side is planning to do before committing to one thing. Right now, everyone is just waiting to see what everyone else is planning on doing, so there's no need for us to rush into a decision."

Xiao Ming still looked a bit hesitant as she said with a bitter smile, "But isn't it good to have at least one ally before the tournament? At this point, I think that the only thing we have is enemies and more enemies."

Lin Fan just patted her on the head and said, "Are you worried about that?"

The hesitation completely disappeared from Xiao Ming's face as she shook her head and said, "Of course not. I'm not afraid of these weaklings."

Lin Fan gave a satisfied nod as he said, "Then don't think too much about it. I'll take a look at the Demon Palm Sect and try to find out what they are planning. You just focus on preparing for the tournament."

Xiao Ming revealed a wide smile as she ran forward and hugged Lin Fan. While hugging him, she said, "Master really is the best!"

To the side, Huang Xie and Yu Huang couldn't help looking over with a complicated look.

Even though they knew that Xiao Ming and Lin Fan were master and disciple, the age difference between them wasn't that big. Not to mention that they were in the Love Sect where there was a precedent of master and disciple being together…

Such as in the case of Lin Fan and his master Mu Bao Bao…

So they couldn't help feeling worried.

But Lin Fan didn't have any intentions of that in the first place.

To him, Xiao Ming was like a little sister rather than a disciple, so he would never lay a hand on her.

Still, it wasn't his place to get in between their love triangle, so he turned his attention to other matters.

Demon Palm Sect, it was a demonic sect by the name.

And according to the information that Senior Brother Ying gathered for him, it was the leading demonic sect in the Wu Empire.

This was a sect that never interacted with anyone else in the Wu Empire, so it was strange that they had accepted the invitation to the tournament in the first place.

As for why they were invited…well it was the Martial Might Sect trying to show off in front of these demonic sects. They wanted to put the Demon Palm Sect down with their disciples and establish dominance for the orthodox sects in the Wu Empire.

But there was a reason why the Demon Palm Sect was able to exist in the Wu Empire for so long.

Even if they were a demonic sect, they were strong.

Still, a demonic sect…

There was only one demonic sect in the Five Great Sects in the first place and they were the leading demonic sect of the continent. But at the same time, they were the place that had taken Mu Bao Bao's mother away from her and now had even taken her father away.

So Lin Fan didn't have a good impression of that place.

But regardless of how he felt about that Heavenly Demon Sect, there was no denying the possible connection here.

Could the Demon Palm Sect have come on the orders of the Heavenly Demon Sect?

The Martial Might Sect was clearly acting on the orders of one or maybe more of the Five Great Sects, so there was no telling if the Demon Palm Sect would be operating on the orders of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

If they were…

Well, perhaps they could be friends to their Love Sect.

Regardless of what his personal feelings for the Heavenly Demon Sect were, it wasn't a lie that they were there to support the Love Sect and the Mu Empire.

It was because of the Heavenly Demon Sect that the Mu Empire was able to break free of the control of the Five Great Sects in the first place.

That was what the former Emperor Mu had sacrificed himself for.

So right now, in this situation where they had to face the Five Great Sects in the form of the Martial Might Sect, it might be good to get help from the Heavenly Demon Sect…

Perhaps they really could be good friends with the Demon Palm Sect.

But that was only after confirming that they were here on behalf of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

It was all too early for this, so Lin Fan would wait and see what happened.

However, the next morning, there was another incident that occurred.
