With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 600 As if nothing happened at all

?After he left, Lin Fan returned to the room and let out a sigh of relief.

Though he had been in complete control of the situation, there were many things that could have gone wrong and these were the things that he had been worried about.

He was afraid that there would be some kind of sudden change, but luckily nothing had gone wrong.

Everything had gone as he wanted it to.

In the beginning, there was no need for him to do something like this. He could have controlled the governor and then used him as a puppet to do what he wanted to do;.

But he did do it this way.

That was because he wanted to use this chance to send a message. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

He wanted to do something for Mu Bao Bao now that she had taken the throne as the new empress.

She would be ruling over the governors of these provinces, so if they tried anything in the future, she would be the one that suffered. So he wanted to put them in their place before that could happen.

As for how he did it…

He would scare them into not daring to do anything.

That was why Lin Fan hadn't turned the governor into a puppet.

He wanted him to see that he had this ability to control people without him even realizing that something was off, so that he would be afraid that Mu Bao Bao would use it on him one day.

With that fear in the governor's mind, he would be too afraid to do anything if the chance ever arose.

At the same time, the governor would even be afraid that the people by his side would be people controlled by Mu Bao Bao.

This would make him more diligent and more honest.

It was like being observed by an ever present watching eye without actually being observed.

But it wasn't just the governor that he wanted to instill this fear into.

He knew that the governor of this Peach Province would be in contact with the other governors and major families of the Mu Empire. Those that he was close to, he would warn about this.

Once one of them learned of this, it would only be a matter of time before everyone knew about this.

Once the rumour of this person with this strange power spread, they would all be afraid of Mu Bao Bao regardless of whether they could confirm this rumour was true or not.

As long as they were afraid of her, it would be much easier for her to consolidate her reign.

Though there was the problem that they would be afraid of her and Lin Fan who controlled this power.

Still, this was something that Lin Fan had already discussed with Mu Bao Bao and she had agreed to this in the first place.

So it wasn't as if he was doing this on his own.

He had shown her the Control Toad's powers and then told her of this plan.

Though he did keep Greeny hidden just in case.

She had been shocked when she saw the power that the Control Toad had, but she agreed to his plan in the end.

So he put it in place with the governor.

Now he was curious to see what effect it would have tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Lin Fan once again strolled into the Governor Manor without any resistance.

When the guards saw him, they even let him in respectfully to everyone's surprise.

This time, since he was going in during the day, that meant that it wasn't only his puppets that were here.

This time, there were plenty of other people that saw him enter the Governor Manor.

He was certain that they would talk about this, but he didn't mind since this kind of gossip wouldn't really spread and it wouldn't have any effect on him.

As he walked through the halls of the Governor Manor, there were some people that tried to stop him.

When that happened, the puppets came forward to stop those people and respectfully greeted him before letting him go. Those that were stopped by the puppets couldn't help being surprised by this, but the puppets were in high ranking positions that they couldn't say anything.

The only thing that they could do was wonder who Lin Fan was.

Lin Fan made it all the way to the governor's office and pushed the door open without any hesitation.

When he came in, he found that the governor was currently in a meeting with someone.

When the governor heard the door open, he looked up with an annoyed look before even seeing who it was and started to shout, "I told you not to let anyone…"

Before he could finish, he saw Lin Fan just casually standing there at the door.

When he saw Lin Fan, the chin of the governor immediately dropped as a look of shock appeared on his face.

Lin Fan didn't seem to care at all about the look of show that the governor had and turned to look at the one that the governor had been in a meeting with.

This person just calmly looked at Lin Fan, as if he was waiting for him to speak.

But Lin Fan also didn't say anything as he waited for the governor to say something.

After a long moment of silence, the governor finally said, "What are you…"

Before he could finish, Lin Fan cut him off by saying to the other person in the room, "You can leave now. I need to have a private talk with the governor."

This person was one of the governor's close confidants and one of his most trusted subordinates. By all rights, he shouldn't have listened to the orders of an outsider like Lin Fan.

However, this person just bowed to Lin Fan and said, "Yes, I'll leave now."

The governor looked at his subordinate in shock and disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

As his subordinate was leaving, the governor said, "Wait, don't go. Stay here with me."

But the subordinate didn't seem to listen to the governor at all as he walked out. He didn't even look back once at the governor as he walked out.

The governor was just left sitting there in shock, not understanding what had just happened.

Lin Fan didn't care as he came forward and sat down in the chair in front of the governor's desk with a smile on his face.

Slowly, the governor came back to his senses and turned to look at Lin Fan.

When he saw him with that smile on his face, he felt that he wasn't looking at a human. Rather, he was looking at a demon in human skin.

In a stuttering voice, the governor asked, "How, how did you do that?"

Lin Fan didn't answer this question and instead said, "I told you that I would be coming to see you this morning, what are you so surprised about?"

The governor had an unstable look on his face, as he didn't know what to say.

After another long silence, the governor finally asked, "What do you need from me?"

Lin Fan gave a nod with a smile of appreciation.

He liked that the governor was quick on the uptake, it would save him quite a bit of time.

"It's very simple, I just have a few things that I need you to investigate for me."

The governor knitted his brows, but he still gave a nod and waited for Lin Fan to tell him what he needed to investigate.

Lin Fan revealed a smile before telling him everything.

The governor's expression became more and more complicated as he heard all of this.

When Lin Fan was done, the governor said with the same complicated look, "It will take some time to get the information that you want."

Lin Fan just said with a nod, "It doesn't matter, I have time. Just get all the information that I want and make sure not to miss a single thing. Understood?"

The governor slowly gave a nod to show that he did.

Lin Fan didn't care about anything else after this and just stood up to leave.

The governor was about to stand up as well as if he was going to follow him, but Lin Fan just shook his head and signalled for him to sit back down.

When Lin Fan was gone, the governor called the subordinate that had left earlier back.

When the subordinate came in, he asked, "Governor, is there a problem?"

The governor looked at this subordinate with a complicated look before saying, "Do you remember what happened earlier?"

The subordinate revealed a confused look when he heard this, but seeing the serious and complicated look that the governor had, he responded, "You asked me to leave earlier to talk to your guest, didn't you?"

The governor was surprised to hear this before repeating, "I asked you to leave?"

The subordinate gave a nod before saying, "That's right. Is something the matter?"

The governor looked at the subordinate with a very strange look which made the subordinate even more confused when he saw this, but he didn't say anything as he waited for the governor to speak.

After a long silence, the governor finally waved his hand and said, "Alright, just leave me alone for a bit."

The subordinate still had a confused look, but he left the governor's office.

The governor looked down as he muttered to himself, "Just what kind of monster does the new empress have under her?"
