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

Her plight evoked pity in all the women present.

Leng Yaozhu gently pulled her into her arms and soothed her softly; Gu Yuena and Bingdi also looked at her with understanding; even Leng Yulai, who had just been sulking, stopped smiling and looked at her with sympathy in her eyes.

Only Lu Jun fell into a brief state of contemplation after listening to Wu Siduo's account.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, seemingly piecing together fragments of information.

A moment later, he raised his head, his gaze sharp as he looked at Wu Siduo:
"Based on your description, especially regarding the characteristics of your family's martial soul... if I'm not mistaken, your family should be descendants of the Zhu family, who intermarried with the Dai family of the Star Luo Empire's royal family ten thousand years ago and inherited the Netherworld Cat martial soul, right?"

"Although the Zhu family was once a prominent family, ever since ten thousand years ago, when the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao dealt with the matriarch of the Dai family with swift and decisive measures because of the humiliation his mother suffered, the Zhu family was implicated and its power plummeted."

"It seems that your branch is a weak bloodline that survived from that time and ended up in the Eastern Continent."

He paused, then continued, "Moreover, based on this calculation, your family should theoretically have a very distant blood relationship with Dai Tianling, the current highest administrative official of the Eastern Continent Sun Moon Federation branch."

"After all, although the Dai family also experienced a catastrophe, it was not completely cut off."

Wu Siduo glanced at Lu Jun with some surprise, then pouted, her tone tinged with bitterness and estrangement:

"We... dare not presume to have any connection with the Dai family."

"Ever since that upheaval ten thousand years ago, when the Dai family was almost wiped out by Huo Yuhao's ancestor, especially after they learned that the trigger for the incident was that our Zhu family had bullied Huo Yuhao's ancestor's mother..."

"The surviving members of the Dai family completely severed ties with all branches of the Zhu family."

“Our family later sought help from the Dai family with great difficulty, but as soon as the Dai family found out that we inherited the Netherworld Cat Martial Soul… they knew that we were from the Zhu family lineage. Even though we had changed our names and surnames.”

She helplessly shrugged and didn't say anything more, but the meaning was self-evident.

"As you all know, being turned away at the door is commonplace."

"Speaking of which..." At this moment, Di Yue, full of curiosity, interjected, her crimson eyes full of doubt, "According to what you said, Lu Jun, Huo Yuhao had such a deep hatred for the Dai family, so why didn't he completely wipe them out back then?"

"Given his strength and influence at the time, it should have been easy for him to do, right?"

Lu Jun glanced at Di Yue and calmly gave his answer:

"Because there was one exception in the Dai family at that time. There was one person whose presence ultimately made Huo Yuhao spare his life."

"Who?" Di Yue pressed.

“He is Huo Yuhao’s half-brother, named Dai Luoli,” Lu Jun explained. “Dai Luoli is different from his arrogant older brother and stepmother. He and his mother are kind-hearted and gave Huo Yuhao and his mother some sincere care and help when Huo Yuhao was down on his luck in the early days.”

"Huo Yuhao has always remembered this friendship. So, I'm not surprised at all that the Dai family can still preserve the bloodline of Dai Luoli."

"If I'm not mistaken, the current political officer Dai in the Eastern Continent Federation branch should be a direct descendant of Dai Luoli."

"Huh?!" Wu Siduo exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this. She looked at Lu Jun, then at Gu Yuena and the others around her who seemed unsurprised, completely bewildered. "Wait! How do you know so much about the specific relationships and hidden events from ten thousand years ago?" She frowned, her face full of confusion: "Logically speaking, the history we know from ten thousand years in the future is all simplified and described in general terms. It's impossible for us to know such detailed information!"

"Official histories wouldn't record the details of such family feuds, and unofficial histories have long been lost or are unreliable... Where did you learn these secrets?"

Faced with Wu Siduo's questioning, Lu Jun simply smiled mysteriously and gave a vague reply of two words:

"you guess?"

Looking at his inscrutable demeanor, Wu Siduo couldn't help but purse her lips and mutter, "So mysterious, it must be some unspeakable secret again..."

at this time--

Lu Jun, Gu Yuena, and Di Yue, who had been relaxed, all changed their expressions almost simultaneously, turning their gazes to the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and looking out at the blue sky and white clouds.

Their expressions instantly turned extremely solemn, their eyes sharp as eagles, as if piercing through layers of buildings and clouds to see something utterly terrifying.

Wu Siduo, Leng Yaozhu, and the others were taken aback by their sudden reaction. Following their gaze, they looked out the window, only to see a tranquil high sky with nothing else in sight.

"What happened?" Leng Yulai couldn't help but ask, her tone filled with doubt and a hint of unease. "Why do you all suddenly look like that? Is something happening outside?"

Lu Jun frowned, his expression more severe than ever before. He spoke slowly, his voice low and deep:

“Originally, I thought I had overestimated the Sun Moon Federation’s technological level in the field of soul tools... but I never expected that they would be able to achieve this…”

Gu Yuena also gasped, her stunningly beautiful face filled with disbelief. Her purple eyes gleamed as she seemed to be desperately sensing and calculating something, murmuring:
"Judging solely from the distance of the energy source and the faint sense of threat emanating from it... that thing, even though it was locked onto here from a distant outer space orbit... despite being so far away, the destructive energy it contains still gives me such a strong feeling of danger."

Her voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly:

"If it were to hit them directly... even a true third-level deity would likely perish..."

She turned her head and looked at Lu Jun beside her. For the first time, a feeling of helplessness appeared in her bright purple eyes.

"Is this... human wisdom?"

Her voice was soft, filled with complex emotions.

"A race whose individuals are so weak, unable to even cross the threshold of godhood... is able to create a weapon capable of killing gods through collective wisdom."

She lowered her head slightly, her long silver hair falling down and partially obscuring her face, revealing a deep-seated envy of human creativity.

If only the dragon race possessed this kind of creativity...

Then even the Dragon God wouldn't have perished, and their divine realm wouldn't have been taken away by human deities... (End of Chapter)
