Dugu Bo was never a good person! Not only did Lin Xiao think so, but even Dugu Bo himself felt that way!
Moreover, he was eccentric. If someone said to Dugu Bo's face, "I think you are a good person," Dugu Bo might do something in the next second to make the other person retract that thought.
In such a vast continent, the only person who thinks Dugu Bo is a good person is probably Dugu Yan.
She thinks her grandfather is the best grandfather in the world!
Just now.
Dugu Bo and Lin Xiao discussed in low voices. Dugu Bo initially suggested killing her directly. Anyway, Lin Xiao didn't need to do it; he would take care of it.
Lin Xiao would have trouble sleeping after killing someone.
Dugu Bo would eat heartily after killing someone.
So it was most suitable for him to do it.
But Lin Xiao refused.
"I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me!"
Lin Xiao said something Dugu Bo didn't understand, but could roughly grasp the meaning of, and then asked Dugu Bo if there were any other solutions.
Finally, they unanimously agreed on poisoning.
But poisoning still required strategy.
Lin Xiao quickly explained his views to Dugu Bo, and Dugu Bo looked at him with a strange expression.
This kid is quite cunning!
Lin Xiao not only wanted Dugu Bo to put a "life-threatening" shackle on Zhu Zhuqing, but also a "moral shackle"! Attacking the city is secondary; attacking the heart is primary! But this was also good. At least Dugu Bo knew that Lin Xiao wasn't the kind of pedantic do-gooder. If Lin Xiao said something like believing in Zhu Zhuqing and that poisoning was not the act of a gentleman...
Dugu Bo would really want to slap him.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao's IQ was online when it came to principles, and he was by no means a saint! The more Dugu Bo looked at this kid, the more he liked him!
Six years had passed, and Lin Xiao not only didn't have a "rebellious period" or a "stupid period," but he was also becoming more and more to Dugu Bo's liking! Someone with principles but not rigid is a good grandson-in-law!
Dugu Bo's thoughts became active again.
He originally wanted to arrange a childhood marriage between Lin Xiao and Dugu Yan, but was unanimously opposed by Lin Xiao and Ye Qingxian, and was even criticized by the two from a moral high ground.
Looking back, Lin Xiao was only six years old at the time, so it was indeed inappropriate.
The timing wasn't right! Now... is it about right?
Dugu Bo looked at Lin Xiao again with the eyes of a prospective grandfather-in-law, scrutinizing him up and down...
Lin Xiao didn't notice Dugu Bo's gaze behind him.
He looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was trembling with fear from Dugu Bo's intimidation, her face full of gloom, and stepped forward, gently comforting her, "Your name is Zhu Zhuqing, right? It's a very nice name."
"Alas, I've tried to persuade my teacher, but I can't control his thoughts."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't reveal what happened today, my teacher will definitely not detonate the poison in your body. When I grow up and my teacher is reassured, he will naturally remove the poison from you."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo curled his lips.
Why doesn't Lin Xiao call me teacher usually? He always calls me 'Senior Dugu,' and sometimes even teases me by calling me 'Old Poisonous Thing'.
Zhu Zhuqing looked gloomy.
It sounded nice, but how long would it take for Lin Xiao to grow up? No one would feel good with a ticking time bomb in their body! But Lin Xiao had been speaking up for her, and he was handsome and spoke gently, so Zhu Zhuqing gave Lin Xiao some face and softly said, "Okay."
Lin Xiao added:
"My word is my bond! This poison is extremely stable and won't interfere with your cultivation or life under normal circumstances."
Zhu Zhuqing murmured:
"I understand."
In any case, she had survived, whether from Dugu Bo's hands or from the hands of those men in black.
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly thought of a blind spot. What if she ran into those men in black when she left? Compared to the assassins who were relentlessly pursuing her, she felt safer staying by Lin Xiao's side. This young man was handsome, upright, and seemed like an honest and righteous person.
Besides, she had already been poisoned anyway.
Zhu Zhuqing looked a little embarrassed, "I'm still being hunted, and I don't know if those people have gone far..."
"That's simple, just follow us!"
Lin Xiao made a final decision, "I'll send you out of the Star Dou Great Forest later, and give you some compensation along the way!"
A thousand thoughts flashed through Lin Xiao's mind.
Since he was doing a favor, he would naturally do it in one step.
Senior Dugu's "life-threatening shackles" and "moral shackles" were still not enough. Next, Lin Xiao would add more fuel to the fire and put a layer of "gratitude shackles" on Zhu Zhuqing.
Although her personality was cold, she had lacked love since she was a child, so she would probably remember it deeply and be grateful? He was almost certain that she would not reveal his strength.
Moreover, as one of the Shrek Seven Devils in the original work, Lin Xiao felt that Zhu Zhuqing might be a breakthrough point to help him grasp information about the Shrek Seven Devils.
Lin Xiao was not interested in Shrek.
No hatred, no grievances, no joy, no sorrow.
However, in a few years, because of the Child of Destiny Tang San, a "storm" that would sweep the continent might be set off with Shrek as the center.
When the nest is overturned, are there any intact eggs? At that time, would Lin Xiao stand on the opposite side of Spirit Hall, or would he side with Spirit Hall? The future was unknown!
Only by becoming stronger could he have the right to choose in the future, and only then could he have a greater say! Of course, it was equally important to have Zhu Zhuqing as an informant at the moment! This was a hidden piece! Perhaps it would never be useful, or perhaps it would have miraculous effects! Listening to Lin Xiao's words, Zhu Zhuqing finally felt a little relieved, and could only comfort herself in this way: if she had not run into Lin Xiao and the others, perhaps she would have been killed by the assassins long ago; at this time, she was only suffering from a serious poison, and she would be safe as long as she did not reveal the news.
All in all, she still made a profit? Shui Binger, who was sitting cross-legged absorbing the Soul Ring, opened her eyes at this time and said with joy:
"Lin Xiao Gege, I've broken through to Soul Ancestor!"
"I'm level 41 now!"
Zhu Zhuqing belatedly looked at Shui Binger in shock, her mouth wide open.
"Soul... Soul Ancestor?"
"An eight thousand year Fourth Soul Ring?!"
There was too much shock in her head, a mess.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't know which one she should be shocked by, whether it was that Shui Binger looked so young, yet she was already a Soul Ancestor powerhouse, or that her Fourth Soul Ring was eight thousand years old?
She suddenly felt that she was not wronged!
Lin Xiao, such a great person! This was a true gentleman! If it were someone else, after their secret was discovered, they would have already killed her, right? No wonder Dugu Bo was so ruthless! On the contrary, Lin Xiao was too kind! Zhu Zhuqing had one biggest advantage, and that was that she was sensible.
In other words, she understood things.
After thinking about it slightly, she couldn't hate Dugu Bo and Lin Xiao...
Especially Lin Xiao, who had been kind to her.
Lin Xiao subconsciously touched Shui Binger's head, "Binger is really amazing!"
Shui Binger narrowed her eyes happily.
Tch, the tone of coaxing a child~ For some reason, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt a little sour.
She thought of the fiancé who abandoned her
