Chapter 92: I Still Prefer Your Initial Arrogance
🕑 Added 2025-04-09 04:40:27 +0000 UTC"You insolent brat! How dare you insult a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse like this? It seems you haven't grasped the vast gap between us.
Very well, since that's the case, I've changed my mind. I'll take you back to our family and train you to be our family's dog! You'll serve our family for the rest of your life!"
Seeing that this kid dared to insult him so brazenly, Meng Shu, who was used to receiving flattery, showed a cruel smile.
After all, it had been many years since someone had dared to insult him like this, and it was a junior at that.
Although he had killed talented young people before, what he enjoyed most was bringing them into his family to strengthen it.
Thinking about it, this kid had managed to kill a two-thousand-year-old Man-Faced Demon Spider on his own, and he looked so young. With such talent at this age, wouldn't it be better to take both the spirit bone and the kid back?
Meng Shu had even started imagining how he would "welcome" Xiao Yu after bringing him back.
"Oh?! You want me to be your family's dog?! Old man, are you sure you're worthy?"
Xiao Yu sneered.
Although he was some distance away from his grandmaster and the others, if they wanted to intervene, they could reach him in just a few steps.
Where did Meng Shu get the confidence to say such things?
"Ridiculous. With my strength as an eight-ring Soul Douluo, isn't that enough?"
Meng Shu sneered.
The pressure of a Soul Douluo bore down on Xiao Yu.
Soon, Xiao Yu felt a tremendous force pressing down on him, but it was quickly neutralized by another force coming from behind.
Just as Meng Shu was confidently thinking that Xiao Yu would surely submit, a blue-robed old man with dragon patterns on his robe slowly walked out from behind Xiao Yu.
Meng Shu's smile froze.
His expression quickly shifted from shock to fear and terror. The dragon-headed cane in his hand and the eight soul rings around him began to tremble violently.
Not long after, as he fully recognized the man before him, Meng Shu's face twisted in bitterness, and he slowly spat out a name that filled him with dread.
"Yu Luomian..."
This kid was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He was done for, completely done for.
At this moment, Meng Shu's heart sank.
Although he was domineering, he had now encountered the even more domineering Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. His arrogance was like a kitten facing a tiger, a junior meeting his ancestors.
Yu Luomian, standing beside Xiao Yu, looked at Meng Shu, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, and sneered.
"Dragon Duke Meng Shu, you've got quite the nerve these days. You dare to provoke someone from our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Or do you think that with the support of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, you can act so recklessly even in the face of the top three sects?!"
Hearing Yu Luomian's sneer, Meng Shu shuddered, his face instantly turning pale.
He quickly retracted his martial soul and bowed deeply, speaking with utmost respect.
"Clan Leader Yu, I didn't know this young friend was from your esteemed clan. I deeply apologize for my rudeness. I am willing to make amends for my earlier disrespect."
After saying this, Meng Shu also bowed to Xiao Yu.
"Young friend, I sincerely apologize. I was blind earlier. Please do not hold a grudge against me."
At this moment, Meng Shu's face was full of humility and subservience.
Although both Meng Shu and Yu Luomian were Soul Douluos, Meng Shu was only Level 83, while Yu Luomian was Level 89.
Moreover, Yu Luomian's martial soul was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the number one beast-type martial soul in the world.
There was no way Meng Shu could match him.
Furthermore, Yu Luomian was from the second-ranked sect in the world, while Meng Shu was from a small family. He couldn't afford to provoke them.
At this moment, Meng Shu regretted his actions deeply. Why hadn't he been more careful before speaking?
He had noticed that the three people behind Xiao Yu seemed extraordinary, but the sight of the spirit bone had clouded his judgment, and he had acted recklessly.
After all, it was a spirit bone! Even he only had one spirit bone.
Meng Shu was filled with regret.
"Hehe, old man, now you're apologizing? Where's that arrogance from before? Why is it gone? I still prefer your initial arrogance."
Seeing Meng Shu bowing in apology, Xiao Yu sneered.
Hearing Xiao Yu's domineering words, Meng Shu forced a bitter smile.
"Young friend, I truly apologize. It was my fault. What can I do to earn your forgiveness? I am willing to make amends!"
It seemed that if he didn't earn this kid's forgiveness today, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wouldn't let him off.
"Grandpa!!"
"Old man, what's going on?"
At this moment, a clear voice and an elderly but harmonious voice came from behind Meng Shu.
"Oh! It's Clan Leader Yu Luomian. This old woman is Chao Tianxiang, and this is my granddaughter, Meng Yiran. We pay our respects to Clan Leader Yu Luomian!"
As Chao Tianxiang approached, she immediately recognized Yu Luomian and bowed in greeting.
Meng Yiran also bowed to Yu Luomian.
After all, he was the deputy clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. No wonder even her grandfather had to bow.
Seeing Chao Tianxiang and Meng Yiran, Yu Luomian's anger subsided slightly. He gave Meng Yiran a deep look and then spoke.
"Meng Shu, your granddaughter seems quite good. Our Dragon's Son happens to need a bed-warmer. Let her serve him."
Hearing this, Meng Shu instinctively blurted out, "Impossible!"
Meng Yiran's face turned pale, and she quickly hid behind her grandmother, her expression filled with panic.
"Clan Leader Yu, what is the meaning of this? Although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is domineering, you can't just snatch people off the streets!"
Chao Tianxiang, shielding her granddaughter, spoke with a stern expression.
Meng Shu, hearing this condition, looked even more bitter.
"Clan Leader Yu, this is absolutely unacceptable. She's my only granddaughter. How can she become a bed-warmer for your clan? Please, let's discuss another condition."
Seeing her husband acting so meek, Chao Tianxiang couldn't help but feel exasperated.
"Meng Shu, what's wrong with you? They're trying to take your precious granddaughter, and you're still bowing to them?! Quickly, activate our martial soul fusion skill and get Yiran out of the Star Dou Forest!"
