With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Of course, they had to confirm it with the mosquitoes first.

Seeing that they told them to just "wait", they knew that they were finally free and the person who was controlling the mosquitoes was coming to see them.

This person had helped them this far, so they couldn't help feeling a bit of trust towards this person.

At the very least, they could tell that they were in the wilderness, so if they went around by themselves, it would be dangerous if they ran into spirit beasts before recovering. So they knew that even if they wanted to head off on their own, it wasn't an option.

They quickly followed the mosquitoes to a clearing that had been prepared for them.

They found that there was a stash of food and water that was waiting for them as well, so they quickly started digging in without worrying about whether it was poisoned or not. They didn't think that whoever saved them would be this bored to kill them with poison after helping them avoid all those traps that could have killed them before.

Senior brother Ying didn't eat at first and he carefully fed his junior sister Xi. However, he was quickly pushed away by his junior sister Yu who took over the duty of feeding junior sister Xi.

He clearly had an unwilling look in his eyes, but he couldn't say anything since she had shut him down with logic.

It wasn't appropriate for him to feed junior sister Xi like that since they weren't together. It was better for junior sister Yu as another woman to feed junior sister Xi.

Time passed as they slowly recovered and soon they had recovered their basic strength.

While it was still far from their peak, they at least had access to most of their abilities. Albeit, most of their abilities were a weakened version of what they were normally.

The mosquitoes never left and just hovered there like back when they were in the cell. It was clear that they wanted them to wait since the person that controlled them must be busy handling something else.

But after an hour, the mosquitoes finally started moving.

When the Love Sect disciples saw this, they all quickly stood up and were about to follow, but the mosquitoes gave them a "wait" message before disappearing.

As they were left behind by the mosquitoes, they could only look at each other with blank dismay as they wondered what they should do.

At this point, it didn't matter if they were left behind since they had enough food and water and a safe place. As long as they had enough time to recover, they would be able to make it back to the city alone since they were powerful Qi Condensing Realm Cultivators.

However, they really wanted to meet this person who had saved their lives. This person was most likely connected to the Love Sect in some way and the survivors of the Love Sect should stick together since they were the only ones of the Love Sect left.

But it didn't take long before a cloaked figure suddenly appeared on one of the trees in front of them.

This figure looked down on them and said, "It seems like you're all safe."

All of them raised their guards and looked at this figure, but not a single one of them were able to recognize this person. Senior brother Ying took the lead and asked, "This friend, are you the one that rescued us?"

The figure gave a nod before raising a token for them that had the "Love Sect" characters on it. Then he said, "I think you should recognize this."

When they saw the token, they couldn't help being surprised.

That was because this token was a token that was only held by the sect master of the Love Sect.

As far as they knew, this token should have been with their junior sister Mu. So if this person had this token, he either was tied to their junior sister Mu or he…killed her and stole it from her.

But if he did kill her, it didn't make sense not to kill them all as well.

So the more likely explanation was that this person was related to their junior sister Mu.

Senior brother Ying relaxed a bit, but he still had his guard up as he asked, "Where is junior sister Mu?"

The figure said in a casual voice, "Master is busy with other things right now, so she couldn't come personally."

"Master?"

All of the Love Sect disciples repeated at the same time as they looked at each other blankly.

However, they had no reason to doubt this person since he had already done all that to help them. So they quickly accepted it and senior brother Ying asked, "What do we do now? Is there a safe place for us to hide out in?"

The figure gave a nod before saying, "Yes, there's already a safe place prepared." Then after a pause, he added, "However, before we go, let's take care of one matter."

All of them revealed confused looks when they heard this.

Before any of them could ask what this matter was, the figure suddenly pointed at junior brother Gu and asked, "How long did you think that you would be able to remain hidden?"

Everyone turned to look at junior brother Gu with strange looks before senior brother Ying asked, "Martial nephew, what are you talking about? Junior brother Gu isn't hiding anything, he's been with us the entire time."

The figure gave a chuckle before saying, "He's been hiding very well, so you haven't noticed anything. However, you haven't thought of anything strange that happened along the way?"

When he said this, they couldn't help falling into deep thought.

During this time, junior brother Gu said in a panic, "Martial nephew, I'm sure that you're making a mistake, I've never hidden anything. We're all from the Love Sect here, how could I hide anything from my family?"

The figure gave another chuckle before saying, "Your illusion array isn't bad, it's just too bad that you can't fool my eyes."

When he heard this, junior brother Gu couldn't help knitting his brows.

The figure continued, "When you tripped martial uncle Fan earlier and when you tried to activate the array by charging at the door, did you think that no one was watching?"

Junior brother Gu's face turned as cold as ice when he heard this and there was even a venomous look that appeared.

All of the others revealed strange looks as they looked at junior brother Gu.

Indeed, all of those events had seemed very strange.

Junior brother Fan had the best defense technique out of all of them, so he was normally very stable in his movements. It should have been impossible for him to trip like that even if he was weakened.

Also, it was suspicious how junior brother Gu had charged at the door.

Normally, he was a very calm person and wouldn't act in such a manner even if they were in a dangerous situation. So why was he acting almost completely different from normal today?

Seeing that everything had been exposed, junior brother Gu suddenly broke out in a twisted laughter that rang out through these woods. Just hearing it made their hearts twist, almost as if it was being ripped apart.

After a long time, he finally stopped laughing and looked at the cloaked figure to say, "I don't know how you did it, but you really have done it. Did you really think that you would be able to do anything by exposing my disguise like this?"

He narrowed his eyes to look at the cloaked figure before continuing, "Even if you are strong, you're only in the Foundation Realm." He revealed a mocking smile as he said, "I'm sure that you thought that you could hide it with that cloak, but that cloak can't hide from my spiritual senses."

Then he looked at the others who had raised their guard towards him and said, "Or did you think that they would be able to help you? These half dead fools, I can take them all out with just a single finger."

After saying this, he burst out into laughter again.

Even a fool would be able to understand the situation.

Senior brother Ying glared at his "junior brother Gu" and said, "Who are you and what have you done with junior brother Gu?"

"Junior brother Gu" looked at his senior brother and said, "Do you really think that you're qualified to ask me this?" Then after another laugh, he said, "I was going to wait to see what kind of hideout you had, but since you can't wait, I'll take care of all of you right now."

With a wave of his hand, the illusion array disappeared and an old man with a wicked appearance appeared. His face was so withered that it could almost be mistaken for a skeleton's.

He raised his hand and a dark energy appeared, sending a chill down the backs of everyone present.

He turned back to look at the cloaked figure and said, "I think I'll start with you. If it wasn't for you, everything would have gone perfectly."

He raised his hand and the dark energy created a ball that he threw out at the cloaked figure.

However, the cloaked figure didn't even move when he saw this dark energy ball coming at him. He just stood there as if he was confident that he would be able to take this.

The dark energy ball didn't actually move that fast since it was only just a test.

The old man didn't think that the cloaked figure wouldn't have some kind of trump card, so he had used this to force the cloaked figure to show his hand.

However, the cloaked figure didn't move at all as the dark energy ball slammed into the barrier in front of him. It immediately scattered and then dissipated into wisps of dark energy.

The old man narrowed his sunken eyes to look at the barrier before revealing a smile as he said, "Just with this? You think that you can rely on this alone to stop me?" Then he burst out into laughter before saying, "I was wondering why was making you so confident, but this is all you have? This really is a joke!"

His eyes turned cold as he gathered up dark energy around him into a vortex. He looked right at the cloaked figure and said, "If that's all you have, then I'm not going to play with you anymore."

With a wave of his hand, the vortex of dark energy took the form of a spear and flew out right at the barrier. Without any doubt, the spear pierced right through the barrier and flew past the cloaked figure.

The old man looked up at him with a twisted smile and asked, "Anything el…"

Before he could finish, he was slammed into the ground by a ball of blue spiritual energy.
