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

Chapter 285 Auspicious Beasts and Lord Lu

There were two people standing at the door.

The leader was a woman.

She wore a well-tailored long dress, the hem of which flowed like water, outlining her breathtakingly beautiful curves.

Her long, golden hair, like flowing sunlight, cascaded smoothly down to her slender waist, shimmering with a dazzling luster in the morning light.

Her face was so exquisite that it was almost perfect, as if it were the Creator's most proud masterpiece, with every line exuding unparalleled nobility and grace.

However, what is most striking are her beautiful red eyes, calm and unwavering, carrying a detached and curious gaze that seems to look down upon all living beings, as if everything in the world is a novel and insignificant plaything in her eyes.

It is the supreme treasure of the Spirit Pagoda, the transformed form of the Imperial Auspicious Beast, and one of the four Spirit Transmission Envoys, Di Yue.

Half a step behind her stood a burly middle-aged man, like the most loyal shadow.

He was dressed in an impeccably tailored black suit, and wore large sunglasses that covered most of his face.

Even through the sunglasses and suit, Lu Jun could clearly feel the violent and ferocious aura emanating from that body, as raging as volcanic lava.

That aura was like an invisible ferocious beast, pressing heavily on people's hearts, carrying the coldness and bloodshed of the most primal jungle law.

He was like a peerless, deadly blade hidden in a magnificent scabbard, its sharpness concealed, yet capable of unleashing a power that could tear the heavens apart at any moment.

One of the Ten Ferocious Beasts, the Three-Headed Crimson Demon Mastiff, also known as the Crimson King.

Lu Jun's heart sank suddenly.

Four-word battle armor!

His divine eye swept over the two of them in an instant, and the information it returned made him secretly alarmed.

The Red King's strength... is even greater than at his peak in the original work.

It seems that the strength of top-tier soul beasts has increased far beyond imagination over the past ten thousand years.

With its cultivation level and the four-word battle armor, how could the ferocious beast not be luxurious?

What made his lips twitch even more was the subtle fluctuation of the four-word battle armor emanating from Di Yue, which was equally undisguised.

A level 72 Soul Saint, and he actually has a four-word battle armor?

Lu Jun was speechless.

This four-character battle armor is specially made, right?
A Soul Saint level expert can use this?

However, given the Emperor Beast's original combat power—ten thousand years of cultivation equals the terrifying combat power of a hundred thousand-year-old soul beast—it's likely that the Divine Craftsman used some unknown method to specially create the four-word battle armor that the Emperor Beast could wear.

Exactly, these four-word battle armors... are they sold wholesale for free in the Spirit Pagoda?
Even imperial beasts are armed to the teeth?
It seems that soul beasts have developed exceptionally fast these past few years thanks to the resources of the Spirit Pagoda!

Di Yue's vertical pupils calmly swept over the respectfully bowing Leng Yulai, finally landing on Lu Jun on the hospital bed.

Even someone as proud and arrogant as Leng Yulai, who fears neither heaven nor earth, has to bow and pay her respects when she sees Di Yue.

It is conceivable that the Imperial Auspicious Beast holds a position in the Spirit Transmission Tower that is probably even higher than that of the Tower Master.

After all, her abilities are truly extraordinary. As long as she stays at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters, she remains a part of the Spirit Pagoda, and her luck can be infinitely concentrated on the Spirit Pagoda, bringing it endless good fortune.

Lu Jun's divine eyes could see that the luck of an ordinary person was as weak as a drop of water in the ocean, those with good luck were like waves, while those who could become peerless powerhouses and dominate an era were like surging waves...

Then the power of the Emperor Beast's fortune is the entire vast ocean!

The difference in their luck is simply outrageous.

How many children of destiny could be created if placed on other people?

It's a pity that the auspicious beast that brought good fortune couldn't control its own destiny. In the original story ten thousand years ago, the auspicious beast was toyed with by Tang San for its entire life.

Di Yue looked at Lu Jun, her red lips slightly parted, her voice like a clear spring striking a stone, ethereal and melodious, yet carrying a natural sense of detachment:
"Is this Lu Jun's hospital room?"

Although it was a question, the tone was unequivocal.

Leng Yulai responded:
"Yes, Miss. Mr. Lu is currently recuperating."

She knew all too well what the identity of the person in front of her meant.

She is one of the foundations of the entire Spirit Pagoda, and an unparalleled being favored by the destiny of soul beasts.

Its status is far more exalted than that of any other high-ranking human being. Even if the Tower Master, Qian Gu Dongfeng, were to personally visit, he would still have to treat him with the respect due to a junior.

Di Yue nodded slightly, her long golden hair shimmering with light.

She didn't look at Leng Yulai again, her gaze fixed on Lu Jun as if it were a physical object, with a hint of inquiry, as she slowly walked into the ward.

The Crimson King was merely the most silent guardian deity. Following closely behind, his gaze behind his sunglasses coldly swept over every corner of the room, and the invisible, malevolent aura made the room's temperature seem to drop several degrees.

Lu Jun instantly felt an immense pressure descend upon him.

He had to be extremely vigilant in dealing with this auspicious imperial beast and the ferocious Crimson King.

I just don't know what they're trying to do.

Di Yue's vertical pupils fell on Lu Jun's slightly pale face. Her calm and unwavering gaze seemed to carry a hint of scrutiny, but it was mostly formulaic concern.

"Lu Jun." Her ethereal voice echoed in the hospital room, "How are your injuries?"

Her question was concise and direct, carrying the air of a superior's routine, and lacked any sense of intimacy.

Lu Jun nodded slightly, his voice deliberately weak and hoarse:
"Thank you for your concern, Miss. I'm much better now, but my mental energy has been somewhat shaken, and I need to rest for a few days."

His answer was watertight, neither exaggerating nor completely denying the injury.

Upon hearing this, a faint hint of understanding seemed to flash across Di Yue's vertical pupils, or perhaps it was just an illusion caused by the light and shadow.

She didn't delve into it, simply raising her hand casually.

The Crimson King, who had stood silently like an iron tower, immediately stepped forward.

His large, black-gloved hand reached into the inside pocket of his suit jacket and swiftly and precisely retrieved a small, exquisite bottle, about the size of a thumb, carved entirely from some kind of warm, white jade.

The bottle has no patterns, yet it faintly emits a soft halo, and is filled with a dreamy turquoise liquid about two-thirds full.

Even with the bottle cap tightly closed, an indescribable, rich, and pure aura of life quietly permeated the air, making the air in the entire ward seem several times fresher, and even the soul felt a sense of comfort.

"This is lake water from the core area of ​​the Lake of Life, taken from the spring near the center of the lake." Di Yue's voice remained calm, as if introducing an ordinary object. "After preliminary purification and energy stabilization treatment, the life essence energy it contains has a remarkable effect on repairing injuries and nourishing the spirit. It should be helpful for your recovery."

The Crimson King handed the jade bottle to Lu Jun, his gaze behind his sunglasses cold and indifferent, as if he were offering not a priceless treasure, but a stone.

Both Lu Jun and Leng Yulai felt a chill run down their spines.

The waters of the core area of ​​the Lake of Life!
This is absolutely a core resource within the soul beast force, and its value is immeasurable!
The meaning behind Di Yue's generosity is intriguing.

This is a resource that even Leng Yulai considers a treasure.

Even she can't enjoy such good things.
