With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

After watching Lin Fan enter the kids for a bit, the beautiful girl came over and placed the cup of tea on the table, albeit she did use a bit of force when putting it down.

Hearing this cup of tea being set down so hard, everyone couldn't help looking at her with a surprised look as they were pulled away from Lin Fan's light show.

The kids couldn't help looking at the beautiful girl with strange looks before suddenly moving away from Lin Fan. They headed off and went upstairs, but Lin Fan could still sense them peeking down the stairs.

At the same time, the beautiful girl sat down in front of Lin Fan and looked at him with narrowed eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Fan couldn't help revealing an awkward look.

After all, she wasn't holding back at all with her ill intentions.

Compared to before, she was like a completely different person.

It seemed like he had done something to offend her, but he didn't know what he had done.

So after a moment of silence, he couldn't help asking, "Is something wrong?"

The beautiful girl didn't answer right away as she kept glaring at him, but then she said in a cold voice, "What do you want with this place?"

Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised by this, but he still said, "I don't want anything. I was really just passing by."

The beautiful girl still looked at him with narrowed eyes and the two of them just sat there in awkward silence for a bit. But in the end, after a while, she stopped glaring at him and pushed the tea towards him with a less hostile look on her face.

After pushing it in front of him, she said, "You can leave once you're finished drinking that."

It was clear that she still didn't trust him, but Lin Fan didn't mind this.

After all, he didn't want to come inside in the first place and had been dragged in.

Even if this girl was beautiful, it wasn't as if he was the same person he was before. He wouldn't fall for every pretty face that he saw and completely lose his reasoning to get in their pants.

He had something that he had to do, so there was no reason for him to stay here.

Lin Fan just took a sip of the tea before preparing to stand up.

However, before he could say goodbye, there was a loud sound that came from outside.

When the beautiful girl heard this, she couldn't help knitting her brows. She then immediately waved her hand at the kids at the stairs for them to go up before glaring at Lin Fan.

However, seeing that there was no reaction from him at all, she didn't bother with him as she went out to where the sound was coming from.

Lin Fan hesitated a bit before following her out.

Even if he wasn't interested in her, he didn't feel right just letting her go out alone. It felt wrong if something happened to this beautiful flower…

When they came out, Lin Fan saw that it was a bunch of thugs that had ruined the gate which caused the loud sound. After destroying the gate, these thugs just stood there with evil smiles on their faces, as if they were waiting for something.

When they saw the beautiful girl come out, one of them who clearly looked to be the leader came up and said, "Little sister Yun, we're here to get the money that you owe us today."

The beautiful girl who had been called little sister Yun deeply knitted her brows, but then she took a deep breath and revealed a bright smile as she said, "Big brother Hai, you know that we don't have the money yet. If you just give us another two days…"

Before she could finish though, the leader called big brother Hai came forward and reached out towards her which made her freeze.

But before he could grab her, Lin Fan took a step forward.

Only then did big brother Hai notice Lin Fan who he had ignored the entire time.

Seeing this person step forward, he couldn't help knitting his brows, but he also didn't say anything right away since he felt something strange from this person. For some reason, he was feeling a vague sense of danger, as if his instincts were telling him not to mess with this cloaked figure.

However, he was in front of his lackeys, so it wasn't as if he could back down to this random stranger.

So after a moment of silence, he said in a fierce voice, "What do you want?"

Lin Fan just calmly looked at him before asking, "How much does she owe you?"

Both the beautiful girl and big brother Hai were caught off guard when they heard this.

The beautiful girl wanted to say something, but big brother Hai just burst out into laughter that cut her off. Then while laughing, he said, "I never thought that I'd see someone playing the hero saving the beauty."

Then he suddenly stopped laughing and said in a fierce voice, "She owes us a spirit stone worth of gold coins and I won't take gold coins as payment. Do you really think that you can pay for something like that?"

When the beautiful girl heard this, she couldn't help trembling.

She wanted to say something, but she immediately closed her mouth when she saw big brother Hai glaring at her.

She knew that if she were to say anything, she would just make the situation worse.

While she felt touched and bad for Lin Fan who had stood up for her, she couldn't anger big brother Hai. If she did…there was no telling what he would do to the kids in the orphanage…

Lin Fan just glared at big brother Hai for a while before suddenly throwing out a small bag at him.

Big brother Hai was surprised by Lin Fan's sudden move and all of his lackeys pulled out their weapons, but he raised his hand to stop them. With his other hand, he caught the small bag that Lin Fan threw at him.

He looked at this small bag with a curious look, but he couldn't see anything special about it.

However, when he opened it up and saw what was inside, he couldn't help being shocked.

He had to take another look at it to make sure that it was what he thought it was before he looked up at Lin Fan. However, this time, the way that he looked at Lin Fan was completely different.

That was because inside of this small bag was…a single spirit stone.

He had only said that he would accept payment in spirit stone to make it harder for him, but he never thought that this person would actually be able to throw out a spirit stone. After all, spirit stones were the currency used by real cultivators, such as those that were in the Foundation Realm.

Even if people were in the Qi Gathering Realm, they wouldn't use spirit stones that easily.

A Foundation Realm cultivator was definitely not someone that they could mess with.

Since this person was able to throw out a spirit stone so casually, that meant…

Big brother Hai couldn't help trembling as he looked at Lin Fan.

He realized that the feeling that he felt before wasn't fake…it seemed like this cloaked figure really was dangerous.

Lin Fan saw his reaction and calmly asked, "Can we consider this matter settled and the debt repaid?"

Big brother Hai looked at Lin Fan with a cautious look, but seeing that he wasn't planning on doing anything, he gave a snort before giving a nod. Then he turned to look at the beautiful girl and said, "I never thought that you would stoop so low to sell your body to find a backer."

The beautiful girl couldn't help being taken aback when she heard this.

She first looked at Lin Fan with a complicated look, but then she turned back to big brother Hai with a calm look on her face.

Seeing this look on her face, big brother Hai gave another snort before turning around. As he walked away, he waved his hand and said, "We're leaving."

The lackeys were all visibly shocked by this, but seeing that big brother Hai was walking away already, they had no choice but to follow him. As they walked away though, they couldn't help looking backwards with different looks in their eyes.

It didn't take long before they disappeared and there was only Lin Fan and the beautiful girl left in the yard.

The beautiful girl just stared at where the thugs had been in silence for a bit before turning to Lin Fan with a complicated look. She didn't say anything as she just stared at him with eyes that were hard to see through.

But in the end, she still bowed her head and said, "Thank you."

Lin Fan just raised a hand and said, "It was nothing. I was just doing what was right."

As he said this, the beautiful girl's heart skipped a beat and a blush couldn't help appearing on her face.

But she quickly calmed herself down and said, "Do you want to come back in for another cup of tea?"

Lin Fan nodded before following her in.

As for the real reason why he had helped her…

That was because he had seen something on big brother Hai that no one else had noticed.

When he used his Appraisal Eyes, he found…

There was a trace of Dragon Tongue Herb hanging on big brother Hai's clothes.
