With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 857 True strength of the Star Tower

Once the ice had been broken, the Third Elder just kept drinking the whiskey that Lin Fan gave him.

It didn't seem like he was planning on discussing anything with Lin Fan with the way that he was acting, even though he had just spoken in a serious tone not that long ago.

Lin Fan didn't push the Third Elder since he knew that this was just a front from the Third Elder.

He knew that he was just being silent to make things awkward for him, making it easier for the Third Elder to say what he wanted to say.

Or at least that was what Lin Fan thought.

In reality, this wasn't what the Third Elder was doing at all.

The Third Elder was a well known connoisseur of wine, that was something that was known by the entire Star Tower. However, it was only the people of the Star Tower that knew this fact.

Since Lin Fan wasn't from the Star Tower, he naturally didn't know about this.

As such, he didn't know that this silence from the Third Elder wasn't a negotiation tactic, but rather it was just him enjoying the whiskey that he received. He was so entranced by the whiskey that he had even forgotten about what his goal here was.

But eventually, the Third Elder had no choice but to come out of his daze.

That was because the bottle that Lin Fan gave him wasn't that big in the first place.

There was only so much wine that was in the bottle for him before he ran out.

Once he ran out, he could only look for Lin Fan for more.

But as he did this, he remembered the reason that he had come looking for Lin Fan in the first place.

So the Third Elder finally got to the main point when he finished his bottle of whiskey.

"I'm sure that you're wondering why I'm here." The Third Elder paused at this before saying, "It's very simple, it's to alleviate some of the worries that you might have."

Lin Fan was surprised and confused when he heard this.

This was certainly not what he had expected the Third Elder to say.

But he didn't remain dazed for long as he suddenly asked, "What kind of worries do you think I have?"

The Third Elder revealed a faint smile before saying, "I'm sure that you have your worries about our fortune telling abilities."

But Lin Fan as the Love Sect's sect master shouldn't have had this experience before.

So how was he able to recognize that the Third Elder was in the Rebirth Realm?

This was related to the higher power that was shielding Lin Fan from the fortune telling of the Star Tower.

That was what he was implying.

But at the same time, there was something else that he was telling Lin Fan.

It was about the true power that the Star Tower had.

Earlier, there was something that the Third Elder had said that Lin Fan had caught and kept in mind. It was that he had said that he was in the top five of the Star Tower.

That meant that there were at least five experts in the Rebirth Realm or even higher in the Star Tower according to the Third Elder.

While Lin Fan wasn't certain if this information could be trusted, it was still something that he had to keep in mind.

No, even if he wasn't certain, Lin Fan knew that there had to be some kind of truth in what the Third Elder said. While he didn't know if there was a Transcendence Realm Cultivator in the Star Tower, he knew that they would at least have more Rebirth Realm Cultivators.

Or they wouldn't have felt secure in sending out the Third Elder like this.

It was clear that the Star Tower had much more power than Lin Fan thought...

It seemed that the true power of the Star Tower was not something that he could look down on.

But it also didn't seem like they had any ill intentions towards the Love Sect for now or else the Third Elder wouldn't be here.

After understanding the power that the Star Tower possessed, Lin Fan just calmly said, "Then is your plan to threaten us with your power? Or do you want to tell me what you're here for?"

The Third Elder raised a finger to wag it before shaking his head and saying, "Not yet, there's still one more misunderstanding that I want to clear."

Lin Fan couldn't help raising a brow when he heard this as he couldn't think of anything else that the Third Elder or the Star Tower would consider a misunderstanding.

The Third Elder didn't mind this look on his face at all as he said, "We're not here for your son of providence, so you don't have to worry. At the same time, that immortal weapon that was recovered from the dungeon, that belongs to the son of providence since it has already bonded to him."

Lin Fan immediately narrowed his eyes after hearing this before saying, "Then you're saying that you would have taken it from him if it didn't bond to him? And was there ever a doubt that the son of providence belonged to our sect?"

The Third Elder didn't seem offended at all by this as he said, "It's just that we're worried that there would be a misunderstanding, which was why I said all of this. I hope that Sect Master Lin will not take this to heart."
