Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 204 Xie Xie: "Brother Lu Jun~ You're so amazing!"

As the battle on the light screen came to an end, a blinding light flashed, and Lu Jun's tall and upright figure appeared like a ghost in the spectator stands, silently landing beside Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena turned her head sharply, her beautiful eyes still holding a hint of shock and resentment at being ended so suddenly. Her pink lips pouted slightly, revealing a charming naivety that was completely different from her usual aloofness.

She stared at Lu Jun, her tone carrying a hint of resentment that she herself was unaware of:
"Lu Jun, I've finally experienced what it's like to be your opponent!"

She spoke a little too quickly, clearly still reeling from the crushing defeat she had just suffered:

"Trying to fight you from a distance? The overwhelming ice swords and cold waves have an absurdly large range. As for melee combat... the sharpness and coldness of your Ice Abyss Sword make my soul power feel like it's going to freeze if I touch it. Besides, the extreme ice is domineering and unreasonable."

"What's most hateful is your soul skill; the transitions are so fast they're practically instantaneous, and those silent flowers..."

She grew angrier as she spoke, her pale fingers unconsciously twisting together:
"It's like a leech, burrowing into my protective soul power, even penetrating my meridians, absorbing my soul power to grow stronger, and finally launching a violent explosion from the inside out. With an attack from both inside and outside, who could withstand that?"

Lu Jun looked at the Silver Dragon King in front of him, who was sulking. His face was flushed with embarrassment and anger, making him a hundred times more lively than his usual aloof demeanor.

The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up, forming a faint yet genuine curve:
"It was a fluke, just a fluke."

"Hmph." Gu Yuena snorted softly, crossing her arms in front of her chest. This gesture accentuated her curves and carried a hint of girlish sulking. She glanced at Lu Jun sideways, her eyes sparkling.

"Luckily, this is just a virtual world. What if it were the real world..." She deliberately dragged out the last syllable, with a hint of dangerous inquiry, "Were you also planning to use that Ice Abyss Thousand Horned Spikes move to turn me into a sieve?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun felt a slight pause in his heart.

Maintaining a smile, he gave a vague answer:
"How could that be? We've fought side by side for so long, I wouldn't treat you like this... well, roughly, would I? Haha..."

His laughter sounded a little dry.

As for their true thoughts, that remains unknown.

"Then you're treating to dinner tonight." Gu Yuena's eyes darted around, as if the previous question was just a prelude. The abacus beads almost bounced across Lu Jun's face, radiating a sly smugness.

Lu Jun watched her switch to blackmail mode in an instant, feeling both amused and exasperated, his face showing even more helplessness:

"...It makes it sound like I'm always taking advantage of you for a meal."

Thanks to his special privileges as a top genius of the Spirit Pagoda, his meal card was essentially an unlimited pass, with all expenses covered by the Spirit Pagoda.

So it was common for Gu Yuena to come and freeload off him for meals.

Gu Yuena raised her delicate chin slightly, revealing a beautiful smile to Lu Jun that could melt ice and snow, tinged with a sense of novelty and lingering satisfaction:

"Let's keep things separate. Besides, that feeling of death just now... hmm, it was quite strange, and... not bad at all?"

Lu Jun's heart skipped a beat.

Strange?
not bad?

What is she doing... wait, why does she seem so naive and innocent?
Was she just being affectionate with me?

Just as Lu Jun was stunned and lost in thought because of this unexpected discovery, an extremely irritating voice, deliberately high-pitched and imitating a woman's voice, abruptly interrupted:
"Oh~, Brother Lu Jun~~" Xie Xie had somehow gotten close by, his fingers twitching in a coquettish manner, his face contorted into an exaggeratedly fawning expression, his voice high-pitched and cloying.

"Your soul skill is amazing! It hurt so much! I don't care! You have to treat me to dinner tonight, okay?"

He not only imitated Gu Yuena's words, but also added an extra touch of drama by twisting his waist, and his final "uh-huh" was drawn out with a lot of twists and turns, full of a mocking tone. The air in the entire spectator stands seemed to freeze as a result of Xie Xie's antics.

The beautiful smile that had just appeared on Gu Yuena's face, carrying a hint of novelty and a different emotion, suddenly froze, then faded away at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by a vast expanse of frost.

At the same time, her fair face suddenly turned bright red, not from shyness, but from pure, absolute embarrassment before a volcanic eruption.

Of course, or perhaps Xie Xie had hit the nail on the head?

Gu Yuena suddenly lowered her head, her long hair falling down and covering most of her face, making it impossible to see her expression. However, the sudden rise of that terrifyingly low pressure, which was almost tangible, made Le Zhengyu and Xu Xiaoyan next to her subconsciously shrink their necks.

"Eh? Eh eh eh! Sister Gu Yue! I was just kidding..." Xie Xie belatedly realized that he had stirred up a hornet's nest, his playful smile instantly turning into terror, and he turned around to run away.

But it's too late.

Gu Yuena didn't look up, but a slender hand shot out like lightning and grabbed Xie Xie's collar with perfect precision.

Those seemingly soft and boneless fingers contained terrifying physical strength. Xie Xie felt like a little chick being grabbed by the scruff of its neck and being dragged over without any power to resist.

"Sister Gu Yue! Have mercy! I was wrong! I was really wrong! Ouch—"

Xie Xie's pleas for mercy instantly turned into a shrill scream.

Gu Yuena moved with lightning speed, pressing Xie Xie's back firmly with one hand, forcing his upper body to fall to the ground in a disheveled state, his buttocks sticking up high.

With her other hand, the jade hand that should have been manipulating the elements of heaven and earth and casting spells gracefully, she mercilessly slapped down hard on Xie Xie's upturned buttocks with a whooshing sound.

"Pah, pah, pah!"

The crisp, resounding slap echoed through the stands, accompanied by Shedie's pig-like screams.

"Ah—! Stop hitting me! Sister Gu Yue! Have mercy! My butt is swollen!"

Xie Xie was in tears, feeling as if he had lost all feeling in his lower body.

"Stop! Stop it, Sister Gu Yue! My butt... my butt is really swollen! It's going to split open!!!"

His desperate cries of despair were filled with utter agony.

Lu Jun, Le Zhengyu, Long Chen, and Xu Xiaoyan all raised their hands in perfect unison, some to their foreheads, some to their eyes, and some to turn their faces away with twitching lips, unable to bear to look at this tragic yet inexplicably funny scene.

Le Zhengyu lowered his voice and sighed to Long Chen beside him:
"This guy really doesn't learn his lesson. He dares to make this kind of joke? And in such a provocative way..."

Long Chen nodded in deep agreement, looking at Xie Xie's body parts that were constantly being hit, and silently mourned for a second for his future.

Xu Xiaoyan covered her mouth, her big eyes filled with both sympathy and an irrepressible smile, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Sure enough, Xie Xie's mouth, which was always getting him into trouble, once again successfully landed him on the execution ground.

"His big mouth is something I don't think he'll ever change. Even if it's cured, he'll still be drooling."

Lu Jun chuckled and shook his head, unable to help but say...
