Chapter 256 Meng Shu Returns

"Master Dugu, I, Meng Shu, will tell you the truth."

"The Dugubo clan leader has shown great kindness to me, Meng Shu, and the old lady Chao Tianxiang."

"Twenty years ago, he saved me and my wife from dying, but more than a decade ago, when the Dugu family was wiped out, I didn't help the Dugu benefactor at all."

"Looking at the prosperous Dugu Family in the past, destroyed overnight, I regretted it deeply."

“And now, benefactor Dugu has entered the realm of the title, and I am too embarrassed to find him.”

"Master Dugu, as the descendant of my benefactor, I have no face to face him, but now that I have met you, I must fulfill my kindness no matter what."

After Meng Shu finished speaking, he took a step back and made an extremely humble gesture towards Dugu Huang.

Dugu Huang looked at what Meng Shu did to him and what he said, and a gleam of understanding flashed in his eyes.

"This Meng Shu is so concerned about my affairs. It turns out that there are these connections. I never thought that my grandfather actually rescued the current Dragon Man and Snake Woman."

He secretly sighed in his heart as Meng Shu told him that he and Chao Tianxiang were rescued by his grandfather.

I was still interested in another thing that Meng Shu said.

"No, did Grandpa and the Dugu family help at that time?"

Dugu Huang did not despise Meng Shu because of these things. He knew very well what kind of enemies the Dugu family had faced in the past.

Just like Meng Shu said, he did not help his grandfather and others. But the fact is, if Meng Shu had helped his grandfather and others back then, their Meng family might have died more thoroughly than the Dugu family.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing, who had recovered from her injuries and was being held by Dugu Huang's hand, gently broke free from Dugu Huang's hand.

She was standing next to Dugu Huang, so she naturally heard clearly what Meng Shu said to Dugu Huang.

Unexpectedly, this famous dragon and snake combination in the continent had such a great favor to Dugu Huang's grandfather, "Poison Douluo", and even wanted Dugu Huang to give them orders to alleviate the debt they felt to the "Dugu Family".

After hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing also realized that what they were talking about was no longer something she could understand.

Being a "sensible" girl, she certainly wouldn't let Dugu Huang have any worries, so she gently broke free from Dugu Huang's hand and walked towards Xiao Wu who was standing beside her.

Dugu Huang, who was freed by Zhu Zhuqing, naturally knew her intention. He did not turn around to look at Zhu Zhuqing at this moment, but continued to look silently at Meng Shu who bowed his head to him in front of him.

"Xiao Wu, it seems that you are fine, and you have even broken through to Soul Master?"

Zhu Zhuqing walked from Dugu Huang's side towards Xiao Wu. Then the icy expression on her face softened a little and she said this to Xiao Wu.

"Ah! Zhuqing, I'm fine."

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing who was walking towards her with an extremely rare gentle expression on her face, Xiao Wu, who had been looking at Dugu Huang, suddenly became flustered.

"I'm glad nothing happened. You don't know how worried Rongrong and I were about you after you were captured by the Titan ape. Even if Dugu caught up with you, we were still extremely worried about you."

"I'm sorry, Zhuqing. If I had practiced well and become stronger, I wouldn't have been caught by the Titan Ape. I made you worry." Looking at Zhu Zhuqing with a gentle face, who was whispering at this moment, and who was so worried about herself when she was taken away by "Er Ming", Xiao Wu felt a little warm in her heart.

Xiao Wu began to doubt whether Zhu Zhuqing had any bad intentions towards her, but now, seeing the extremely worried look in her eyes and the caring words in her words, she did not feel a trace of malice, only full of worry.

Then, he put down his guard, looked at Zhu Zhuqing at the moment, and spoke softly.

"I'm glad you're okay. By the way, Xiao Wu, can you tell me what happened when you were captured by the Titan ape? And what happened when Dugu rescued you."

Listening to Zhu Zhuqing asking herself again about how she was captured, Xiao Wu's eyes flashed with confusion. She didn't want to tell "everyone" that she was the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast.

She sighed secretly in her heart and said:
"Zhu Qing, let me tell you, it's all because of Dean Dugu's strength. He chased the Titan Ape closely in the forest. Even after fighting with the Titan Ape for a whole round, he didn't suffer any serious injuries."

"Finally, a resounding bull roar appeared in the depths of the forest, scaring away the Titan ape. I was then rescued by Dean Dugu, and then I found a soul beast that suited me on the way. I didn't waste it and absorbed it."

"Afterwards, we encountered the human-faced demon spider that was injured by Meng Shu here, and Dean Dugu took action..."

Without eavesdropping on the conversation between Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, Dugu Huang looked at Meng Shu, who was silent and motionless at the moment, and a hint of sigh flashed through his heart.

"As expected of a spirit master of the older generation? He treats his benefactor's grandson so seriously."

Looking at Meng Shu at this moment, the figure of Shrek Zhao Wuji flashed through Dugu Huang's mind.

We are both soul masters, why is there such a big gap between us???
"Meng Shu, please get up, senior."

Dugu Huang took a step forward and stretched out his hand to help Meng Shu up.

But when Dugu Huang walked forward and touched Meng Shu's arm, he realized how naive his idea of pulling Meng Shu up was.

At this moment, Meng Shu, with the strength of a Soul Douluo, saluted him silently. Dugu Huang tried to help him up, but he could only feel the huge strength on Meng Shu's body. He could not lift him up with his own strength alone.

Only then did Dugu Huang realize how ridiculous he was.

"Master Dugu, the gratitude between me and my benefactor cannot be expressed in words. I have also said that I am too embarrassed to see my benefactor. So in my eyes, you are my benefactor, so there is no need to feel burdened."

Feeling Dugu Huang's move to help him up, Meng Shu not only did not stand up, but instead wanted to lower himself down again.

"Senior Meng Shu, I promise you."

Feeling Meng Shu's downward movement and being unable to stop it, Dugu Huang could only speak helplessly.

"It's a deal, Master Dugu, you can't go back on your word."

Hearing that Dugu Huang agreed to let him complete his task, Meng Shu suddenly raised his head, and a hint of joy flashed across his old face.

Dugu Huang looked at Meng Shu at this moment, with a helpless smile on his face.
