Ling Yun hadn't expected to run into Prince Xue Beng here.
Shouldn't he be at the morning court in the palace, just like Qian Renxue?
How did this guy still have time to wander the streets?
Or was he currently on his way to the Imperial Palace?
It was just that the crowded streets had blocked his way, which was why he was yelling on the street without caring about his image.
Ling Yun had no good feelings for Prince Xue Beng.
Although in the original work, this guy was the disciple of the protagonist Tang San.
But for some reason, Ling Yun just couldn't bring himself to like this guy.
Perhaps it was because this guy was too cunning, constantly enduring from childhood, finally accumulating power to become an Emperor.
Or perhaps it was because his initial image as a profligate noble targeting the protagonist's group was too deeply ingrained.
This led to Ling Yun's impression of him not changing at all, even after his later whitewashing.
After the crowd obediently made way, Xue Beng's carriage slowly moved forward.
Upon reaching Ling Yun, the carriage suddenly screeched to a halt, stopping less than three meters away from him.
A few seconds later, an old man with silver-white hair, a thin figure, and a sour expression stepped out of the carriage.
After he got out of the carriage, his eyes surveyed Ling Yun, revealing a thoughtful expression.
"A 2000-year-old Heavenly Snow Weasel? How did it appear in the bustling Heaven Dou Imperial City? I wonder if it already has an owner."
After he got out of the car, another young man, who looked about 10 years old, with a tender face but a profligate expression, also got out of the car.
"Mr. Dugu, did you suddenly get out of the car because you found something interesting?"
Mr. Dugu? Ling Yun suspiciously fixed his gaze on the old man. Could this guy be Dugu Bo?
Prince Xue Beng looked at Ling Yun, tentatively asking Dugu Bo.
"Is it because of this little fellow? It's just a 2000-year-old Spirit Beast. Why is Mr. Dugu so interested in this little fellow?"
Facing Prince Xue Beng's inquiry, Dugu Bo nodded noncommittally.
"To be honest, Your Highness, I am indeed quite interested in this little fellow. I just don't know if it already has an owner.
If it doesn't have an owner, I'd like to take it back as a pet for my granddaughter."
Prince Xue Beng's face showed a fawning smile.
"Since Mr. Dugu wants this little thing, no matter whose it is, I will definitely capture it and give it to Mr. Dugu."
After Prince Xue Beng finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him, and more than a dozen people immediately ran out from behind his carriage.
"Capture that little fellow for me! This Prince will reward you handsomely!"
"Wouldn't that be inappropriate? What if that little fellow is a Spirit Beast with an owner, and we capture someone else's Spirit Beast on the street?
If the other party finds out it was us, it might cause a lot of trouble."
Dugu Bo's brows furrowed slightly. No matter what, he was a dignified Titled Douluo.
Even if he was usually overbearing, he didn't want to do something that would make others point fingers and curse him.
"Mr. Dugu, you don't have to worry about this. If anything really happens later, I will definitely settle it.
I don't believe that with this Prince's power and influence, anyone would make trouble for this Prince because of a mere 2000-year-old Spirit Beast."
Xue Beng waved his hand at his subordinates, and more than a dozen of them rushed towards Ling Yun, scrambling to be first.
Dugu Bo no longer spoke. Since someone was willing to capture the Heavenly Snow Weasel for him, it was naturally the best outcome.
Even if there were some unnecessary troubles in the future, he wouldn't have to worry about them falling on him.
With Prince Xue Beng's power and wealth, there was indeed no one in the entire Heaven Dou Empire who could threaten him.
Looking at the dozen or so burly men rushing towards him, Ling Yun thought for a moment and simply didn't struggle.
If he directly beat up all these dozen people, Dugu Bo might make a move.
At that time, he would either expose his true strength, or he would still be captured by that old guy.
Since that was the case, why bother?
It was better to be obediently captured and follow Dugu Bo to his home for a visit.
And while he was at it, he could go see Dugu Yan and see if she was as beautiful as in the anime.
Most importantly, Ling Yun wanted to see if he could encounter Yu Tianheng.
As one of the two most talented brothers of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Yu Tianheng was not only handsome but also quite talented.
The most important thing was that Yu Tianheng and Yu Xiaogang were uncle and nephew. If he could successfully devour him.
He could then use his identity to approach Yu Xiaogang, providing a convenient basis for him to devour Yu Xiaogang, which was Ling Yun's ideal target for devouring at this stage.
Just as the onlookers were waiting for Ling Yun to unleash his strength, take on ten people, and savagely beat up those who were trying to capture him.
He didn't move at all and was easily caught by a brawny man.
The brawny man's expression was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected a 2000-year-old Spirit Beast to be so easily caught by him.
He immediately showed a look of ecstatic joy and scurried over to Dugu Bo and Prince Xue Beng.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I caught it! I caught this 2000-year-old Spirit Beast!"
Seeing his fussing appearance, Xue Beng nodded, took Ling Yun from his hand, and handed him to Dugu Bo.
"Mr. Dugu, I have successfully accomplished my mission and captured this beast. Please accept it, Mr. Dugu."
Dugu Bo didn't stand on ceremony with him. After all, for so many years.
If it weren't for his protection, Prince Xue Beng would have died countless times.
So he could accept Prince Xue Beng's gift with a clear conscience.
Dugu Bo held Ling Yun in his palm, his sharp eyes filled with interest as he examined Ling Yun.
"It really is a Heavenly Snow Weasel."
After muttering to himself, he followed Prince Xue Beng into the carriage. The carriage started moving again and headed towards the Imperial Palace.
Prince Xue Beng was quite puzzled by Dugu Bo's deep interest in Ling Yun.
"Mr. Dugu, I am actually a bit curious. You are a dignified Titled Douluo-level powerhouse.
This mere 2000-year-old Spirit Beast can arouse your interest. Is there anything unusual about this Spirit Beast?"
Dugu Bo showed a faint smile on his face and then explained the unique ability of the Heavenly Snow Weasel.
Prince Xue Beng showed a look of sudden realization.
"So, Mr. Dugu wants to give this little thing to your beloved granddaughter? No wonder!"
Dugu Bo nodded noncommittally.
"I once thought of finding time to catch one in the Star Dou Great Forest, but unfortunately, I never had the time.
Now it's good, it delivered itself to my doorstep. If I don't catch it, I'd feel bad for my poor granddaughter..."
Ling Yun, in Dugu Bo's palm, rolled his eyes. This old guy was so happy now.
It wouldn't be long before Qian Renxue would definitely find out who took him away.
When the Crown Prince of the Empire comes knocking with a cold face to retrieve his pet, he wondered if this old guy would still be able to smile...
