With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods -
Chapter 460 Traveling With The Fourth Prince
Since they had made their decision, it was time to inform the fourth prince.
Yue Lan took care of this by sending a messenger to request a meeting, but to their surprise, the fourth prince immediately agreed to one.
It was already the middle of the night with how long their talk had taken, but the fourth prince didn't seem to care at all.
Yue Lan had thought that the fourth prince would even chase the messenger off for bothering them in the middle of the night. She had only sent it out of courtesy to the fourth prince, but she never thought that it would end like this.
Since the fourth prince was waiting, it wasn't as if Lin Fan could keep the fourth prince waiting for long.
So he headed off to meet the fourth prince alone again.
When he arrived, he found that the fourth prince was actually waiting for him.
It wasn't as if the fourth prince was standing outside waiting for him, but there was the fourth prince's attendant waiting there.
Lin Fan recognized this person because he had been in the meeting with him and the fourth prince before.
When the attendant saw Lin Fan, he just gave a simple bow before leading the way in. With the way that he was treating Lin Fan, it was almost as if he was looking down on him.
Though that really wasn't strange since one side was a close attendant of the fourth prince while the other side was someone who had become a city lord because of the whim of a prince.
There was no comparison in status between the two.
The attendant brought Lin Fan into the fourth prince's room where the fourth prince was waiting for him.
Lin Fan was about to give a bow to the fourth prince, but the fourth prince quickly raised a hand to stop him. Then the fourth prince gestured to the seat in front of him before simply saying, "Sit."
After Lin Fan sat down, the fourth prince said, "Young master Lin, have you come to a decision yet?"
Lin Fan was surprised to hear how direct the fourth prince was being and he was even more surprised to hear a trace of impatience in the fourth prince's voice.
It was almost as if he couldn't wait to hear what decision that Lin Fan would make.
At the same time…it was almost as if he was afraid to hear Lin Fan's decision, like he was scared that Lin Fan would refuse.
Lin Fan was confused and surprised that the fourth prince would act this way, but he didn't say anything.
After all, he had come with good news for the fourth prince.
After taking a deep breath, he said, "I will come with young master Mu to meet that person."
The fourth prince revealed a surprised look before suddenly breaking out in a smile.
He gave a clap and a chuckle before saying, "I knew that I wasn't mistaken about young master Lin, you really are a man that understands things."
He suddenly stood up and walked over to Lin Fan's side before patting him on the shoulder. As he did this, he said, "You are a good brother who really gets me! I couldn't ask for a better brother!"
Lin Fan was taken aback even more when he heard this.
He looked at the fourth prince with a strange look, not understanding why he was acting this way…
No matter how he looked at it, he shouldn't be someone that was this close to the fourth prince.
But the fourth prince was doing this on purpose.
He had regretted how things had ended between him and Lin Fan last time, so he wanted to make up for it. He didn't want to leave things as they were between him and Lin Fan since he valued Lin Fan.
He knew that Lin Fan was someone with special abilities, so he wanted him on his side.
So he would go out of his way to act close so that they could have the same relationship as before.
At the same time, there was a small part of the fourth prince that wanted to become closer to Lin Fan.
He didn't know why he felt this way, but he did feel this way.
So he tried to act as friendly as he could with Lin Fan.
What he didn't know was that all that this did was put Lin Fan off.
Lin Fan wanted to leave as soon as possible when he saw the fourth prince like this, so he simply said, "Let us converge tomorrow and set off in the morning."
Then without waiting for the fourth prince to say anything, he suddenly stood up and turned to leave.
When the fourth prince's attendants saw this, they all felt anger.
The way that Lin Fan had said this almost seemed like he was on equal footing with the fourth prince. That was without a doubt looking down on their master!
But before they could say anything, the fourth prince raised his hand to stop them.
Then he turned back to Lin Fan and said, "Alright, we'll meet tomorrow then."
Then as if he had suddenly remembered something, the fourth prince added, "Young master Lin, please don't forget about that other person that needs to come."
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this, but he still turned to give a nod before saying, "That person will come as well."
The fourth prince gave a simple nod in response to this without saying anything else.
Once Lin Fan had left, the fourth prince's attendants had wanted to complain again, but he stopped them. He just kept looking in the direction that Lin Fan had left with a smile on his face and a strange look of determination in his eyes.
On the other side, Lin Fan had a bitter look on his face as he walked away from the fourth prince's residence.
…
In the morning, Lin Fan came back to the fourth prince's residence to replace that they were all waiting outside for him.
There was the carriage and everything else prepared, the only thing left was him and Mu Bao Bao missing.
When they saw him arrive, the attendants all revealed looks of disdain as if they looked down on him for making them wait like this.
But the fourth prince quickly came forward and waved his hand before saying, "Young master Lin, you're here. Come, let's share a carriage."
Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a strange look when he heard and saw this.
After all, the fourth prince acting like a friend who was inviting him out really did seem strange…
But before anything could happen, the attendants quickly turned their attention to Mu Bao Bao.
That was because Mu Bao Bao was completely covered in a cloak right now.
No matter how they looked at her, she seemed like a suspicious person.
Out of concern for their master's safety, there was no way that they would let someone like this come near him.
So they quickly surrounded the fourth prince even though he clearly had a look of protest on his face.
The attendant who had shown Lin Fan to the room last night came forward and asked, "Young master Lin, this person is?"
Lin Fan just calmly said, "This is the person that his majesty wants to meet. So if you're against this person coming, then I don't think there is a reason for me to come as well."
When the fourth prince heard this, he could no longer hold back.
He immediately pushed the attendants out of the way and said, "Young master Lin, there's no need for that. My attendants were just being cautious, there's no need to take this to heart."
As he said this, he turned to glare at them and all of them meekly lowered their heads before giving nods of agreement.
Seeing this, the fourth prince was about to say something else, but Lin Fan cut him off by saying, "Your highness, they are concerned about your safety and it is a valid concern. You can't just go in the same carriage as someone who hides themselves under a cloak like this, what if they turn out to be an assassin?"
The fourth prince revealed a bitter smile when he heard this.
At the same time he thought, "So you're telling me that you're planning on sending an assassin after me to my face? This is a person that you brought, so if you say they are an assassin, does that mean you're planning on killing me?"
But he kept this thought to himself.
Lin Fan wasn't affected by this and just calmly waved his hand.
When he did, there was a carriage that suddenly ran over at a speed that caught them off guard.
When the dust settled, they found that there was a carriage that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Lin Fan once again calmly said, "I will be taking my own carriage instead."
Since he had said all of this, there really wasn't anything else that the fourth prince could say.
But the attendants that were with him couldn't help being shocked by the carriage.
It wasn't the carriage itself that they were shocked by, but rather the horse that pulled this carriage.
Because they could tell from the flaming mane that it had that this was a spirit beast and not just any spirit beast, but a powerful one.
They looked at Lin Fan with a strange look.
Just how had he tamed a spirit beast like this to pull his carriage?
