With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods-Chapter 230 Fair White City
After the encounter with the bandits, there wasn't any event of note that happened during their trip.
Since Fair White City wasn't that far from the dungeon town, it only took them two days to reach the city.
Fair White City wasn't a city that was as big as Brilliant Light City, it wasn't even a city that was as big as Sunset City. It was nothing more than a simple border city that was put there to prevent beasts from the wilderness spilling out into the empire.
The only place that was very lively in this city was the Mercenary Guild since this was a place that mercenaries gathered before their trip into the wilderness.
It was also because this was a small city that Mu Bao Bao's senior brother didn't get caught by the informants of the enemies easily.
After they arrived, the first thing that they did was check into the city.
Unlike Brilliant Light City that had a special array that helped them detect Foundation Realm Cultivators, Fair White City's checkpoint just allowed anyone in as long as they had valid identification and they paid a toll. They didn't even bother properly checking the identifications, the guards just took a quick look before waving people through.
Though if people didn't have identification, Lin Fan noticed that as long as they gave the guards a few extra coins, they would be allowed to go in.
It was clear that public security wasn't good in this city.
To be safe, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao had put on cloaks to hide their appearances.
After all, both Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao had appearances that could create trouble, especially Mu Bao Bao.
Since ancient times, beautiful women had always been a source of calamity and Mu Bao Bao's beauty wasn't just normal beauty.
Once they were in the city, the first thing that Lin Fan did was find a place to put Hi and the carriage away since they drew too much attention.
In a city with bad public security like this, it was quite easy to find a hidden alley to do this. Though when he entered the alley, there were a few thugs that followed them since he seemed like an easy target.
He and Mu Bao Bao were the only ones that left this alley.
Since it was their first time in this city, they decided to hire a guide to guide them through the city.
Though in the end, it wasn't them that found the guide, but rather the guide that found them.
As they were walking through the streets looking for a guide, they were unknowingly targeted by someone hiding in the shadows. This person blended in with the crowd on the street and when they walked past Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao, they "accidentally" tripped.
But before they could bump into Lin Fan, Lin Fan's figure disappeared and appeared behind them.
The small figure realized that they had made a mistake and immediately tried to run away. It was just too bad that Lin Fan's hand was like an iron chain as he grabbed their shoulder.
They wanted to scream for help, but before they could say a thing, Lin Fan used his spiritual energy to block their mouth.
This pickpocket's eyes opened wide in shock as they realized their mistake.
They had just targeted a cultivator. Moreover, it wasn't a weak cultivator, but one that could do things with their spiritual energy like this.
Lin Fan picked up this small figure and carried it into an alley with Mu Bao Bao.
Once they were there, he dropped this small figure on the ground and took a good look at their appearance.
Their clothes and hair were all messy, but this was clearly a little girl.
Lin Fan lifted her face up so he could see it more clearly.
With the way she looked, she looked like she was no older than ten years old, but she was pickpocketing people.
Girls like this in his old world would have been busy with school and playing with friends, but girls like this in this world had to do what they could to survive.
He couldn't help feeling a bit of pity even though she had tried to steal from him.
So he asked her, "What is your name?"
The little girl was surprised by his question and after looking at him for a bit, she said, "Xiao Ming."
Lin Fan revealed a smile and said, "Xiao Ming, how would you like a job?"
Xiao Ming was once again taken aback by his words and she couldn't help raising her hands to cover her body as she said, "Do you want my body?"
She had heard about people like this before, she just never thought that she would encounter someone like this.
But the other side was a powerful cultivator, so even if she wasn't willing, it wasn't as if she had a choice.
If he were to force himself onto her…
Lin Fan couldn't stop three black lines from appearing on his forehead while Mu Bao Bao beside him covered her smile with her hand.
Lin Fan took a breath to calm himself before saying, "It's not anything like that."
Xiao Ming raised a brow and looked at him cautiously before asking, "Really?"
Lin Fan's lip couldn't help twitching before he said, "Really. I just want you to guide me around the city. I'm sure you're more than familiar with this city, right?"
Xiao Ming looked at Lin Fan for a few seconds, but seeing that serious look on his face, she gave a nod and said, "I can guide you around the city, but…" She paused before raising her hand to give a signal for money, "I won't do it for free."
Lin Fan shook his head with a smile before flipping a gold coin to her.
When Xiao Ming saw this gold coin, her eyes popped out before she immediately revealed a friendly smile and said, "This young master, is there anywhere that you want to go?"
Lin Fan gave a nod in response to this change in attitude from her before saying, "Take me to the Royal Style branch store."
"Royal Style?" Xiao Ming couldn't help muttering.
Lin Fan raised a brow when he heard this and he asked, "Is there a problem?"
Xiao Ming revealed an awkward look before saying, "That place is in the noble district, so someone like me…"
Lin Fan just calmly asked, "Do you know where in the noble district it is?"
Xiao Ming nodded before saying again, "But someone like me…"
Lin Fan raised his hand to cut her off before saying, "You don't need to worry about it. Just guide us there and I guarantee that there won't be any problems."
Xiao Ming still had a hesitant look, but she nodded in the end. In a worst case scenario, she could just run off by herself when the guards came for them.
So she led Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao through the streets of Fair White City.
From time to time, she would point out different shops that she felt that they would be interested in. However, Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao were in no mood to shop since they had come here for a purpose.
But that didn't stop Xiao Ming's stomach from growling when they walked past a stall that was selling roasted meat.
Xiao Ming immediately lowered her face that had turned red when this happened and she was about to keep going like nothing had happened, but Lin Fan stopped her with a smile.
He went over to the stall and bought a few meat skewers before coming back.
Xiao Ming didn't expect anything, so she was surprised when she saw Lin Fan holding out a bag of skewers to her.
She didn't take the skewers right away as she said, "I don't have any money for them…"
Lin Fan looked at how she was acting. It was as if he hadn't just paid her a gold coin just now.
But he was sure that she had her own circumstances, so he didn't ask any further.
Lin Fan just said, "Well, I've already bought them and I don't think that I can eat this many. If you're not going to eat them, guess I'll just throw it out." After saying this, he turned to throw away this bag of skewers.
Hearing this, Xiao Ming quickly raised her head and grabbed the skewers from his hand. Then she said in a soft voice, "Well, if you're going to throw them out, then I can help you get rid of them. You should thank me for helping you."
Then without hesitating, she started biting into the meat skewers like a rabid dog biting down on meat.
Lin Fan didn't mind though as he just patted her head and then went to eat his own skewers with Mu Bao Bao.
He found that Mu Bao Bao was staring at Xiao Ming as she tore through the meat skewers. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
When he was about to start eating, he suddenly heard Mu Bao Bao say, "How nice."
Lin Fan raised a brow to look at Mu Bao Bao as he asked, "Do you want to eat the skewers like that as well? Well, if you do, I won't judge you."
Mu Bao Bao's face turned a bit red before she gave a cough to calm down. She then said, "I don't mean that. I just meant that it would be nice to have a kid like Xiao Ming…"
When she said the latter part, she realized who she was saying this to and she couldn't help feeling even more shy. Her voice also slowly fizzled out when she came to the end of her sentence.
Lin Fan couldn't help feeling that her shy appearance was very cute and he couldn't stop his hand from coming up to pat her on the head. He then said, "Un, I think so too."
Mu Bao Bao's eyes lit up when she heard this.
If Lin Fan was saying this, then…that meant that in the future…
Her heart couldn't help fluttering and filling with hope when she heard this. At the same time, she also made a mental note to tell Yue Lan and the others about this when she got back.
Without knowing it, she had actually become quite close with Lin Fan's other girls. It had even reached the point where they were starting to share secrets they kept from Lin Fan with each other.
At the same time, with the sisterly bond between them, there wasn't anything about Lin Fan that they hid from each other.
As for Lin Fan, he had never thought about having kids before.
However, when he looked at Xiao Ming, he couldn't help feeling that it would be good if he could have a kid like this one day.
But the key thing for him was one day since he still didn't feel like he was ready to become a father yet.
It was a good thing that he didn't say this out loud for Mu Bao Bao.
