Ling Yun didn't expect that this girl, upon being pulled into his arms, would cry immediately.
However, this also proved that the girl was truly sincere and devoted.
Dugu Bo hurriedly pleaded with Ling Yun. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't defeat Ling Yun—and might even provoke him—he could risk his granddaughter's life.
Dugu Bo really wanted to fight this twenty-thousand-year soul beast with all his might, even at the cost of his own life. He wouldn't allow his granddaughter to be humiliated.
Ling Yun then released her, showing a displeased expression.
"Little girl, is it because I'm not handsome?"
Dugu Yan immediately stepped back six or seven meters, her expression cautious, staring at him.
"You are handsome, but my heart already belongs to someone else. I could never like you."
"Is that so? Little girl, how about a bet? I guarantee you'll like me.
If I win, later you'll kiss my cheek in front of your grandfather. If I lose, I'll turn around and leave immediately, never bothering you again."
A teasing smile appeared on Ling Yun's face.
"Forget it, impossible. My heart only belongs to Tian Heng."
Dugu Yan glanced at Ling Yun disdainfully and snorted.
"Fine, you said it." Ling Yun looked at Dugu Yan provocatively, then turned his gaze toward Dugu Bo with authority.
"Could you step outside for a moment? There are some things I don't want you to see."
Dugu Bo hesitated, glancing at Dugu Yan. He didn't want to leave. Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, impatiently urging him.
"If I want to act, ten of you couldn't stop me. Hurry up and leave! Do you want me to throw you out?"
Dugu Bo had no choice. After all, this twenty-thousand-year soul beast was not someone he could resist.
He let out a heavy sigh and walked outside, closing the door behind him.
Ling Yun immediately established the Evil God Domain throughout the living room, blocking Dugu Bo's perception.
After finishing, Ling Yun stood from the Grandmaster Chair and gently called out.
"Yan'er, we haven't seen each other in a while. Why don't you recognize me? I'm so sad…"
Then, Ling Yun's body twisted and instantly transformed into Yu Tianheng's form, leaving Dugu Yan stunned.
The unfamiliar man before her had suddenly transformed into the Yu Tianheng she liked. She couldn't understand what had happened.
"Ti—Tianheng? How is it you? N-no, impossible!"
Ling Yun smiled gently, approaching Dugu Yan, and lightly brushed her nose.
"You wouldn't believe it, but this time, I didn't leave the imperial city to go to Noding City to find my uncle? Unexpectedly, on the way there, I obtained an immortal-grade herb. After consuming it, my soul power reached level 30.
In the Soul Hunting Forest, I found a 1,500-year-old soul beast skilled in disguise. After absorbing its soul ring, I gained the ability to disguise myself."
Ling Yun spoke confidently, not fearing Dugu Yan would see through him. After all, she was just a twelve-year-old girl who hadn't seen much of the world.
He then released the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, showing two yellow and one purple soul ring, making his strength appear around level 32.
Dugu Yan looked at Ling Yun suspiciously, hesitant and uncertain.
Seeing she still didn't believe him, Ling Yun's eyes rolled, and he transformed into the Tian Snow Ferret form.
"Do you remember the Tian Snow Ferret? I can disguise myself as it. Amazing, right?"
Even after this, Dugu Yan's astonished expression didn't change.
Ling Yun returned to his human form, looking a little disappointed, and said to Dugu Yan:
"Yan'er, if you still don't believe me, I really have no other way…"
"Tianheng, I believe you! I believe you, okay?"
At this point, Dugu Yan was already eight or nine parts convinced.
However, she was curious why her grandfather seemed so afraid of "Tianheng's" form. Didn't that seem strange?
"Tianheng, since this is a soul skill disguise, why is my grandfather so afraid of you? It feels weird."
Ling Yun pretended to be troubled, slapping his forehead.
"That's because on the way back, I hurried and disguised myself as a flying-type soul beast.
Perhaps my appearance was frightening, scaring your grandfather. Now he thinks I'm a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast that can transform into a human.
Yan'er, don't tell your grandfather about this. If he finds out I disguised myself as a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast to scare him, he'd probably break my legs!"
Ling Yun looked pitifully at Dugu Yan, trying to appear extremely fearful.
Dugu Yan understood and imagined her grandfather furiously chasing "Yu Tianheng" after being scared by a soul beast, covering her mouth and giggling.
"Alright, I won't tell, but I probably can't hide it forever, right?"
Ling Yun shrugged. "Hide it as long as you can. Maybe I'll be stronger than your grandfather one day, then I won't have to fear him."
He snapped his fingers, removing the Evil God Domain, and opened the door for Dugu Bo to enter.
Seeing Dugu Yan now not resisting Ling Yun, but instead affectionately linking her arm with him, Dugu Bo was full of confusion.
"Yan'er, since you lost, shouldn't you honor the bet and kiss him in front of your grandfather?"
Ling Yun winked at Dugu Yan, leaning down to point at his right cheek.
What confused Dugu Bo even more was that his granddaughter didn't resist at all. She stood on tiptoe, pressing her red lips against Ling Yun's cheek.
Dugu Bo couldn't help but doubt reality. Did his granddaughter suffer some kind of shock?
Otherwise, how could the granddaughter, who had only ever liked the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus boy, suddenly change like this?
Ling Yun chuckled, touching his cheek, and said:
"Yan'er, I should be going. Remember to take the antidote pills on the table. Soon, the poison in your body will be removed."
"Mm, goodbye." Dugu Yan watched Ling Yun's figure disappear into the night, smiling brightly.
Dugu Bo shook his head repeatedly, muttering to himself:
"Crazy, absolutely crazy! Yan'er, how could you kiss him? Didn't you like that Yu boy the most?"
Dugu Yan nonchalantly nodded, a lovesick expression on her face.
"Yes, I like Tianheng, but he's even handsomer than Tianheng. Why can't I like him?
Grandpa, your thinking is too old-fashioned. I like someone this handsome."
After saying this, Dugu Yan skipped toward her room, leaving Dugu Bo full of question marks in his mind, completely bewildered.
