With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods - Chapter 629 The fated day (10)
Chapter 629 The fated day (10)
Lin Fan just gave a chuckle in response to these words from the old master.
When they heard this, this time it was the old master and the three masters’ turn to knit their brows.
They looked at Lin Fan as if they were trying to figure out what he was laughing about.
Lin Fan didn’t care at all about the way that they looked at him and kept laughing until he suddenly stopped.
As he suddenly stopped, the old master and the three masters couldn’t help feeling a chill run down their spines. They didn’t know why they felt this way, but this chill was not something that they could resist.
It was as if there was something that had gone wrong that they weren’t able to stop.
They didn’t know what it was, but they felt like they had to do something.
So the second master couldn’t stop himself from saying, “What are you laughing at?”
Lin Fan looked at the second master when he heard this.
When the second master felt Lin Fan’s gaze fall onto him, he couldn’t help giving a tremble.
There was this strange feeling that filled him.
It was like Lin Fan was the spider and he was the prey that was stuck in the net that was about to be eaten.
He had no idea why he felt this way, but the feeling was too strong for him to shake.
So in the end, the second master was the one that broke eye contact.
Lin Fan gave a snort when he saw this and turned to look at the old master to say, “Where’s your sincerity? If you want me to join, shouldn’t you at least show some kind of sincerity?”
Once again, the old master and the three masters were caught off guard.
After all, not a single one of them had expected Lin Fan to suddenly ask this.
They had thought that it was a different issue, but it seemed that Lin Fan just wasn’t satisfied with the terms. He was putting pressure on them so that they would give him better terms.
The old master let out an internal sigh of relief before saying, “This young master, I can guarantee that my Lin Family is sincere in this matter. As long as this young master has anything that you want, then you can tell me and I’ll do my best to fulfill the requests of the young master.”
lightsnοvεl Lin Fan revealed a satisfied look when he heard this and gave a nod in response before saying, “Alright, that’s more like it. First, I want half of everything in the treasury of the Lin Family.”
Half!
The old master and the three masters couldn’t help taking a cold breath when they heard this.
Without even discussing anything else, the first request that he had made was for half of their treasury. This was half of everything that the Lin Family had collected in the many generations that it had been around.
This was not a small amount, especially since it was the Lin Family’s treasury, yet he was able to ask for this without any hesitation.
Just who was this person that was able to do something like this?
But before any of them could recover from their shock and say anything, Lin Fan continued.
“Second, I want half of all your women. It doesn’t have to be your daughters, I’ll also take your wives and your lovers.”
The old master and the three masters immediately knitted their brows when they heard this as a trace of anger appeared in their eyes. After all, the only thing that this could be considered was blatant provocation.
He was saying that he wanted to take their money and their women, was there anything else that he could take from them?
But they were shocked to hear what Lin Fan had to say next.
“Third, I want the lives of these three.” As he said this, Lin Fan raised his hand to point at the three masters sitting around the room.
All three of them revealed ugly looks on their faces when they heard this.
They never thought that Lin Fan would actually ask to take their lives in front of the old master, in front of their father.
Was there anything more embarrassing for their Lin Family than this?
If looks could kill, then Lin Fan wouldn’t be standing there at this moment.
The old master had a very ugly look on his face when he heard this, but he didn’t say anything else as he waited to see if Lin Fan was finished or not.
Seeing that Lin Fan didn’t say anything else, the old master said, “We have shown our sincerity, so where is your sincerity?”
Lin Fan gave a shrug with a smile as he said, “I have already shown my sincerity.”
The old master couldn’t hold back his anger anymore when he heard this as he slammed his fist into the armrest of the chair he was sitting in and roared, “Sincerity, where is this sincerity that you speak of?! Why can’t I see this sincerity?!”
Lin Fan just gave another shrug as he said, “It’s very simple, I could just kill you all and take everything that I want in the first place. I think that I’m pretty sincere in giving you a chance to survive.”
The old master and the three masters looked at Lin Fan with looks on their faces as if they were trying to figure out if he was being serious or not.
Then the old master said in a deep and threatening voice, “Do you really think that you could do anything to our Lin Family? We were giving you face by allowing you to meet me and talk things out, but it seems like it’s not…”
Before he could finish saying this, Lin Fan suddenly raised his hand and said, “There’s no point in trying to stall for time. By now, they should be killing each other already.”
“Huh?” The old master and the three masters said at the same time.
For a moment, it was as if they couldn’t understand what he was saying.
But then the old master looked at Lin Fan with a dark look and said, “What did you do?”
Lin Fan just replied with a smile, “You don’t need to worry. Soon you’ll be joining them.”Where Stories Blossom: N♡vεlB¡n.
The old master was someone that had ruled over this Lin Family for over thirty years now, but in all his time at the head of the Lin Family, he had never wavered for a single second. He always knew what to do and would never hesitate when making a decision for his family.
But at this moment, he didn’t know what to do.
He should have figured that it was nothing more than a bluff from Lin Fan since there was no way that he would be able to do anything.
However, the confident way that Lin Fan stated this and the strange abilities that he had demonstrated before…it really was not something that he could ignore.
Not to mention, he had accurately guessed that they were indeed stalling.
After a long silence, the old master finally said, “Who are you?”
He had no choice but to take this seriously now since this person was clearly not like any that he had faced before.
Lin Fan didn’t answer this question and instead said, “How about we talk about something else?”
The old master and the three masters immediately knitted their brows the moment that they heard this.
They didn’t say a thing as they waited to see what Lin Fan would have to say.
Lin Fan just calmly raised one hand and pulled out something from his Storage Ring.
After pulling this thing out, he raised it in front of the old master and the three masters to say, “Does this seem familiar to you all?”
The old master and the three masters looked at this thing with a confused look at first, but then they all revealed looks of recognition before the expressions on their faces became very ugly.
The old master said in a voice that seemed like he wanted to rip Lin Fan apart, “Where did you get this?”
Lin Fan just calmly said, “It’s nothing more than a rock that I picked up on the side of the road. Is it really something that special?”
The old master didn’t say anything, but it was clear that he didn’t like the current situation.
The way that Lin Fan calmly played with them, it was as if he knew much more than he was leading on. It was almost as if they were nothing more than puppets that were dancing on the palm of his hands.
The old master took a deep breath and said, “The terms that you’ve given before, let’s discuss them. We can’t agree to the second and third term, but let’s talk about the first. As long as you’re willing to stop, then there’s no amount that we’re not willing to give.”
At this point, the other side had already grabbed them by the horns and they had no choice but to play along with them.
If they didn’t, it would mean the destruction of the entire Lin Family.
After all, the matter that this rock was involved in was something that could make or break the Lin Family. They were just a single day away from it, they couldn’t let it all end now.
Lin Fan shook his head and said with a chuckle, “Don’t you get it? From the very beginning, there was no negotiation.”
