With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods



Three days after the ceremony…

Lin Fan was heading back to Dungeon City, but he wasn't alone.

It wasn't even a small group that came with him, but rather a very large group that came.

Mu Bao Bao was naturally there, but there were many different ministers and officials that also came with her. Along with many normal guards and experts that came to protect her.

The capital should have been where Mu Bao Bao stayed during this time, but she refused.

No matter what anyone said to her, she refused to remain in the capital and insisted on returning to Dungeon City.

So there was no other choice but to bring all of these people with her.

After all, she was now the ruler of this nation and the amount of things that she had to do was anything but small. If even a single day was missed, the nation would collapse.

So they had to chase after her to make sure that she did what she had to do.

This was their jobs as ministers and officials.

Though it had to be said that Mu Bao Bao really wasn't making it easy for them.

They could only lament that they had to work with such a willful ruler.

But that was their fate as subordinates.

Another thing that they did was glare at Lin Fan since they could see how close Mu Bao Bao was with him.

Many of these officials and ministers all dreamed about climbing up the ranks of government and the best way was to build a relationship with Mu Bao Bao. As for the best way to build a relationship, naturally it was to marry someone to her.

They all wanted their sons or grandsons to get engaged with her, but she didn't show any interest in this.

With how close she was with Lin Fan, it was clear that he was the reason for this.

For now, they didn't dare do anything, but Lin Fan was certain that in the future…there would be people coming for his life.

He had already expected this, which was why he wanted to go back to Dungeon City as soon as possible. That was where his base of power was and that was the safest place for him.

So he wanted to get there as soon as possible.

There were two surprising groups that came along with them on this journey.

The first one was Elder Jian and the other old man who had been there to protect Mu Bao Bao during the crowning ceremony who was called Elder Gui.

The two of them said that they had been assigned to protect Mu Bao Bao, so they would go wherever she went.

The other surprising one was the fourth prince…or rather King Protecting South.

His name was Mu Nan Cheng, so when Mu Bao Bao took the throne and he was no longer a prince, he had been renamed Southern Protecting King.

At the same time, he had also been named the prime minister by Mu Bao Bao, so it could be said that he was just as busy as her.

But even then, he was still coming to Dungeon City with her.

When asked why, he said, "I'm still the governor, so what's wrong with me going to my territory."

This wasn't a lie since he was indeed still the governor of the province that Dungeon City was in. It was a trick that Mu Bao Bao used so that no one could threaten Dungeon City without her knowing, but the Mu Nan Cheng took advantage of this to escape his work as well.

It seemed that this pair of siblings were more alike than one would think.

With this large group, their travelling speed had naturally decreased.

It took them around a month before they were able to reach Dungeon City.

During this time, they had gone through the various cities and towns on the way to Dungeon City.

Each time, they had received a large welcome since most of the ministers and officials had sent notice ahead.

This was not just to ensure that Mu Bao Bao would be properly protected at these places, it was also to help her establish herself as the new ruler. Since she was the new ruler, she didn't have a prestige established yet.

There would be people who would think that they could take advantage of her.

These ministers and officials were of course thinking the same thing, so they wouldn't let anyone get to her before them. So they were planning on helping her establish her prestige so that these lower officials couldn't reach her.

As long as it was established, only people of their level would be able to meet with her.

So they were planning on doing this by having her tour each of the cities with them there.

By bringing her to these cities to show her might with her ministers and officials with her, it would scare these lowly officials into not daring to do a thing.

That would protect their investment.

So it took quite a long time for them to leave each of the cities.

Every time that Mu Bao Bao wanted to leave, the ministers and officials would grab her legs and beg her to stay one more day.

She wasn't completely heartless, so she went along with their requests for a short period of time. But there was a limit to her patience in the end and they would leave eventually.

It didn't take long before the story of Mu Bao Bao traveling across the country to force the various City Lords and Province Governors into submission spread.

When they arrived in Dungeon City, they found Yue Lan and Ming Xin waiting there for them.

With the people behind them, it was clear that this was an official group that was here to welcome them.

After they entered through the gates, Yue Lan walked forward…but she didn't go over to Mu Bao Bao as one would expect.

Instead, she walked over to Lin Fan and grabbed him by the arm before turning back to head to her group.

When they came back, she put Lin Fan at the head of their group before leading him forward towards Mu Bao Bao.

Once they were in front of Mu Bao Bao, Yue Lan cupped her hands and said, "Your majesty, it is an honour for us to have you come to our city. This is our Dungeon City's City Lord, sir Lin Fan."

Both Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao were caught off guard by Yue Lan acting this way, but in the end, both of them gave a sigh since they knew why she was acting this way.

The officials and ministers gave approving nods when they saw this, though most of this was directed towards Yue Lan.

There was no way that these people would be able to resist her beauty.

After a pause, Lin Fan cupped his hand and said, "Your majesty, it is an honour."

Mu Bao Bao gave a sigh before waving her hand and saying, "At ease, there's no need for this."

Both Lin Fan and Yue Lan slowly brought their heads back up after this.

Mu Bao Bao gave another sigh before turning to say to the ministers and officials, "I am tired, so I will be going to rest."

The ministers and officials revealed bitter looks on their faces, but they didn't dare say anything against this.

So they just cupped their hands and said, "Rest well, your majesty."

Mu Bao Bao gave a simple nod before turning to Yue Lan and saying, "Let's go."

Yue Lan revealed a faint smile before leading the way with Lin Fan.

Seeing this, the ugly expression on the faces of the ministers and officials just became worse.

One of them couldn't take it anymore and said, "Your majesty, you are an unmarried woman, you shouldn't be acting this way. What if rumours were to spread…"

Before he could finish speaking, Mu Bao Bao had already turned around and was glaring at this person.

This person was an official of the court, so he wasn't a cultivator.

When the pressure of Mu Bao Bao who was a Golden Core Realm Cultivator fell down on this official, he had no way of resisting it. He was forced to swallow his words and he was almost pressed down into the ground.

Mu Bao Bao just calmly said, "Lin Fan is my man and there's nothing that you can say to change that. From now on, I don't want to hear another word on this matter."

All of the ministers and officials had very ugly expressions hearing this, but they could hear the serious tone in her voice. So they had no choice but to bow their heads and say, "Yes, your majesty."

When she heard this, she gave a satisfied nod before turning back to go with Yue Lan and Lin Fan.

The former fourth prince and the current Southern Protecting King, Mu Nan Cheng came forward and patted the official who had spoken on the shoulder as he said, "There's no use trying to convince her. You won't be able to change her mind."

When the official heard this, he immediately looked up and said, "Your highness, can you…"

Once again, before he could finish speaking, Mu Nan Cheng said, "That's impossible, I can't change her mind."

Though he secretly thought, "Not that I would want to. You want to split up my sister and my brother in law? In your dreams."

Though he would never say this out loud.

Hearing this, all of the expressions on the faces of the ministers and officials became even more bitter.
