Douluo Continent: Reincarnated Dan Heng Drinks the Moon, Gu Yuena Pursues Him

Chapter 71 The gentleman is of great talent!

The carriage next door.

Prince Xuexing and Xue Qinghe arrived one after another, both to pay their respects to Lord Long, Meng Shu.

The Dragon Lord Meng Shu is a first-class force in the Soul Master world, and its status is equivalent to that of a great noble family.

Even Prince Xuexing had to lower his stance and communicate with the other party in a friendly manner.

Xue Qinghe smiled and gave Prince Xuexing a deep look, saying, "When I woke up and didn't see my uncle, I thought he might come to visit Master Long, and I was right..."

Xue Qinghe gave a forced smile, inwardly cursing Prince Xue Xing.

That bastard! He said all those nice things last night, looking down on Prince Xuexing and even agreeing not to come over to meet him.

I set off early in the morning without communicating with him.

As soon as it was just getting light, Prince Xuexing came running over, all excited.

That old fox is so cunning!

Prince Xuexing laughed heartily, "Of course! Didn't I tell you, my dear nephew? I greatly admire Lord Long, a hero of unparalleled skill and a loving couple. Moreover, our meeting yesterday was too rushed, and I was impolite in some way..."

"Of course I had to come and visit to clear up the misunderstanding!"

Prince Xuexing showed not a trace of shame on his face.

All's fair in war, and politics is even more sordid.

So what if Xue Qinghe finds out? Can he still bite his own uncle?

Xue Qinghe smiled slightly, having no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.

"That's what I thought too, but I didn't expect my uncle to arrive so early..."

The uncle and nephew maintained a superficially friendly relationship.

Then they chatted with Long Gong and Meng Shu for a while, laughing and chatting in a cheerful atmosphere.

Prince Xuexing was good at guiding the conversation, telling interesting stories about the Soul Master world and the legendary deeds of the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple.

Xue Qinghe would occasionally ask Long Gong Meng Shu for his views on the Soul Master world.

In short, the goal is to make Long Gong and Meng Shu feel comfortable when they express their opinions and viewpoints.

Xue Qinghe laughed and said, "Why don't we travel together? That way we can look out for each other."

"Yes, Mr. Longgong, it's a pleasure to chat with you today. I really regret not meeting you sooner. I'm so reluctant to part ways like this..." Prince Xuexing sighed.

Faced with their invitation, Long Gong Meng Shu shook his head slightly and said:

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I'm currently traveling with a friend and it's not convenient for me to make a decision..."

Long Gong Meng Shu looked at Dan Heng's carriage.

Compared to dealing with the Heavenly Dou royal family, he actually preferred to be with Dan Heng, at least there was less scheming and backstabbing.

Prince Xuexing and Xue Qinghe exchanged a glance, their expressions slightly surprised.

They all looked at another carriage.

Compared to the luxurious carriage of the Gaishi Longshe family, Dan Heng's carriage, though spacious, was clearly not belonging to nobles and did not contain much wealth; it was as ordinary as could be.

How could such a person be a friend of Long Gong Meng Shu?

They had all assumed that the servants were brought by Long Gong Meng Shu.

"This... I wonder who this hero is, Mr. Long Gong's friend?" Prince Xue Xing asked curiously.

Xue Qinghe was also somewhat expectant, wanting to know the other party's identity.

Long Gong Meng Shu shook his head and said, "No, he... is neither a Soul Master nor a nobleman, but I have a genuine friendship with him, and his character is impeccable. Although he is a young man, in my opinion, he is..."

In Long Gong Meng Shu's description, Dan Heng was praised to the heavens, as if he were greater than a god.

When Prince Xuexing heard that Danheng was just an ordinary person, he lost much of his interest.

He couldn't help but secretly despise Long Gong Meng Shu.

Only a vulgar soul master would so highly praise a "useless" person, right?

Xue Qinghe listened patiently; in this respect, she was more mature than Prince Xuexing. She asked gently, "Hmm? Mr. Long Gong said that Mr. Dan Heng is a great scholar?"

"Of course, he's incredibly learned... there's no one who understands theory better than him!"

Long Gong Meng Shu noticed the two men's contempt for Dan Heng, so he deliberately raised Dan Heng's "prestige".

Xue Qinghe was about to say a few flattering words.

A melodious female voice suddenly rang out from behind.

"My husband must be quite embarrassed to hear Mr. Meng praising him like that..."

The moment that voice was uttered, even without seeing the person, Prince Xuexing and the others would immediately assume it was an exceptionally beautiful woman.

Everyone turned to look and saw a woman in a white dress walking gracefully towards them. Her figure was elegant, and her clothes were conservative, revealing little skin. She was also wearing a veil, but her eyes alone were enough to captivate them.

"Young friend Danheng deserves my praise. This is my friend's wife..."

Long Gong Meng Shu explained.

Gu Yuena nodded slightly and looked at Xue Qinghe.

She could easily see through the other person's true identity from their appearance.

It was not a man, but a young woman.

Of course, this matter is not important right now.

The important thing is that since they are from the Heavenly Dou royal family, their presence here is a perfect opportunity to make her husband famous!

Make them respect their husbands and drag them into the arena of fame and fortune!

"Madam, why don't you take off your mask?" Prince Xuexing asked with a smile.

"Your Highness, please have some self-respect."

Long Gong Meng Shu suddenly snorted coldly, his eyes filled with a threatening look.

The laughter and conversation we just shared now seem entirely fake.

Because of a casual remark, he became displeased with Prince Xuexing and didn't want to give him any face.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Prince Xuexing's face, followed by an awkward smile.

Xue Qinghe smiled and said, "I heard from Master Long that Master Danheng is a great scholar. Coincidentally, we were just discussing the situation in Douluo Continent; currently, Heaven Dou and Star Luo are in a state of equilibrium..."

"But the two countries have chosen different strategies, and it's unclear which one is more correct."

"We believe it is the Heaven Dou Empire, which is allied with the Soul Master forces. Mr. Long Gong will not discuss this. But the nobles of the Star Luo Empire firmly believe that they will have the last laugh if they develop their military strength."

"If it's Mr. Danheng, I wonder what insightful opinions he might have?"

Upon hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Gu Yuena slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

I had just dozed off when someone brought me a pillow!

Looking at it this way, the Gaishi Longshe family isn't so bad after all!

Gu Yuena said softly, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask my husband. If it's my husband, he'll surely see the truth..."

After leaving a message, Gu Yuena turned and went back to the carriage.

Xue Qinghe watched her back without thinking too much. She brought up a topic simply to avoid making the atmosphere too awkward.

Prince Xuexing has been rebuffed by Long Gong Meng Shu and is no longer in the mood to stay.

"It's getting late, Qinghe, shouldn't we be leaving?"

Prince Xuexing said calmly.

Xue Qinghe shook his head and said, "Didn't we just say we wanted to ask Mr. Danheng for his opinion? It would be even better if we could travel together."

"You!" Prince Xuexing frowned, knowing that the other party was deliberately going against him.

Knowing full well that his relationship with Long Gong Meng Shu is currently strained, he still tries to bring them together!
