Chapter 60 Shocking Snowy Night

at dusk.

Di Hong came to the Prince's Mansion.

The people arranged by Xue Ye had already been waiting here.

"Lord Dihong, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for you, please follow me."

Following the people from the Prince's Mansion, Di Hong came to a garden.

The garden is very large, with flowers blooming in all colors and the air filled with rich floral fragrance. In the center is a small lake. A bridge connects the land and the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The pavilion is as white as jade, with four swan sculptures standing around it.

The four swan sculptures are four small fountains, with water spewing out from the swans' mouths in a cycle.

Xue Ye saw Di Hong coming and stood up to greet him.

"Come, sit down." After returning to the pavilion, Xue Ye personally poured a cup of tea for Di Hong, which made Di Hong look flattered.

After sitting down, Xue Ye did not hide anything and told Di Hong about today's meeting with the emperor. Now the emperor seemed to be on his side, which gave him an advantage in the fight with Xue Yu.

Xue Yu was already no match for him, and now he was about to lose the emperor's support. What could he use to fight against him?

Di Hong put down the teacup in his hand.

"It seems that I have to congratulate Your Highness in advance."

Xue Ye waved her hands: "Don't worry, don't worry. The more times come, the less anxious we should be."

"In a month, my father will hold a hunting competition."

Di Hong was in deep thought. The old emperor's health was getting worse day by day, and he wouldn't live long. Yet now he was planning to hold a hunting contest. What was he thinking? Did he think he was going to die soon, and wanted to go crazy before he died?
"Your Majesty is suddenly planning to hold a hunting competition. Is it because of the fight between Your Highness and the Second Prince?"

This was the only thing he could think of. The failure of the Second Prince Xue Yu was inevitable. Even if he rebelled, the success rate would not be high. After all, the Emperor still had the Imperial Guards, the Royal Knights, and the Soul Master Corps. With the little power in the Second Prince's hands, wouldn't a rebellion be like hitting a rock with an egg?

But Xue Yu's talent for cultivation is really good, and it's a pity to ruin him. After all, there are no strong people in the royal family. It's so hard to have a person with good talent, and if you ruin him, people will laugh at you to death.

Therefore, the emperor wanted to take advantage of this hunting meeting to ease the relationship between the two and let the two brothers shake hands and make peace.

"That's right." Xue Ye nodded.

"When my father spoke to me today, he hoped that I would let go of the fight between my second brother and me. Of course, he did not ask me to give up the position of crown prince. It is obvious that he wanted to disintegrate my second brother's power and completely cut off his wings."

Di Hong nodded slightly. The emperor was on Xue Ye's side, so it would be hard not to win. Xue Ye now had two kings, four twos and a straight, so he could definitely win. As for Xue Yu, he only had three, four, and five, but not six.

The two chatted for a while until the waiter came over to remind them that they had arrived at the restaurant, and then they left the pavilion.

When we arrived at the restaurant of the Prince's Mansion, a dignified and beautiful woman in a blue palace dress was already waiting there. This woman was the Crown Princess Xue Ye and was born in the Kingdom of Barak.

After Xue Ye came in, she stepped forward and tidied things up for him carefully.

"Greetings, Crown Princess." Di Hong bowed to the woman, who responded with a smile.

This was the first time that Di Hong met Xue Ye's Crown Princess. She did not attend the banquet two years ago. She and Xue Ye were in a political marriage, but their relationship was still very good. However, they had no children since their marriage.

Di Hong was a little puzzled. Did the people of Douluo Continent really practice late marriage and late childbearing? He found that soul masters generally had children very late, but of course this did not apply to all people.

Tang Hao was 44 years old when he had Tang San, and Qian Xunji was also quite old when he had Qian Renxue. This was because he used dishonorable means to force Bibi Dong, otherwise he would never know when he would have a child.

The leader of Haotian Sect, Tang Wei, is not young anymore, and his eldest son, Tang Xiao, is only in his thirties.

Even Xue Ye still doesn't have a child.

However, he knew that in the future Xue Ye would have four sons and a daughter. As for how many daughters he would have, he didn't know, after all, only Xue Ke was born.

Xue Ye was also quite miserable. Three of his four sons were killed by Qian Renxue, and the remaining one had to disguise himself to barely survive. It was really not easy. Xue Ye himself was also poisoned. If Tang San hadn't stopped him, Qian Renxue would have really died.

They didn't talk much during the meal. Xue Ye only asked about Di Hong's cultivation of soul power.

Now Di Hong is at level 69, and will not be far from level 70, which will only take some time.

"How many years of soul beast do you want for the seventh soul ring? Perhaps I can provide it for you."

As the crown prince, it is very easy for him to provide Di Hong with a suitable soul beast. However, he has no way to find one that is too old. He has no problem finding one that is under 50,000 years old. It will take some effort to find one that is under 70,000 years old, but it can still be found. As for one that is over 70,000 years old, that would be really difficult to find.

"Your Highness, my seventh soul ring was originally intended to hunt a 90,000-year-old soul beast. After all, my sixth soul ring is a 60,000-year-old Fire-Feathered Bird King. But based on my current situation, I plan to hunt a 100,000-year-old soul beast." Di Hong did not hide it. After all, the matter of soul rings could not be concealed even if he wanted to.

Just like his innate soul power, when he was targeted in Wuhun City, he could roughly guess that the Wuhun Palace should have seen that his innate soul power was not level ten, but it was still able to hide it from most people.

"Cough cough cough~" Xue Ye almost choked on the wine. The Crown Princess quickly patted his back to make him feel better.

She looked at Di Hong with surprise in her eyes.

"One hundred thousand year soul beast."

Xue Ye shook his head in astonishment.

"You are so bold. It's hard to find a 90,000-year soul beast, and you actually want to hunt a 100,000-year soul beast."

"You have the seventh soul ring. Can your body withstand it?"

Although his talent was not high, he was still aware of the danger of absorbing a hundred thousand year soul beast, especially since Di Hong wanted a hundred thousand year soul beast at the seventh soul ring. The huge amount of energy would surely burst him.

A 90,000-year soul beast is already the ninth soul ring of a Titled Douluo, and not all Titled Douluo’s ninth soul rings are 90,000-year soul beasts.

Among all the Titled Douluo in the entire continent, the number of Titled Douluo who can use a 90,000-year-old soul beast as their ninth soul ring can probably be counted on one hand.

After all, a 90,000-year soul beast is really hard to find.

The age of Di Hong's sixth soul ring is 60,000 years, which is already the eighth soul ring of many Titled Douluo. If it is a weaker Titled Douluo, it may be the ninth soul ring.

"Over the years, I have been practicing to strengthen my body. With my current physical strength, it won't be a problem for me to absorb a hundred thousand year old soul beast."

Xue Ye thought for a while and said, "This hundred thousand year soul beast is really not easy to find. There are a few in the Xingdou Great Forest, but they are too strong. Ordinary Titled Douluo are no match for them."

Since Di Hong is confident, he will naturally help, after all, he is one of his own.
