Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right
Chapter 693 Lu Jun's Sword Flight
In an instant, countless gazes converged from all directions and fell upon Lu Jun.
In that gaze, there was undisguised amazement, infatuation with beauty, but even more so, there was an intense, almost tangible envy and jealousy directed at Lu Jun, and even a hint of barely perceptible resentment.
With his keen senses, Lu Jun naturally received all those piercing gazes.
Although he maintained a calm expression, he couldn't help but raise his hand and gently rub his temples, a sense of helplessness welling up in his heart.
This spectacle... is far too eye-catching.
In the future, unless absolutely necessary, I really should avoid taking them to crowded places.
He even had a wild thought in his mind: if those gazes could turn into sharp arrows, he would probably already be pierced by a thousand arrows and dead beyond any hope of survival.
Unlike his slightly embarrassed feelings, Gu Yuena and Wu Siduo seemed to be used to it, or rather, they didn't care about the opinions of passersby at all.
Gu Yuena caught a glimpse of Lu Jun's slightly furrowed brows out of the corner of her eye, but a faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared on her lips. It seemed that being able to share the spotlight with him was a pleasant thing in itself.
However, this joy was ultimately mixed with a hint of indescribable frustration.
Her gaze swept seemingly unintentionally over Wu Siduo, who was standing half a step behind her, and her graceful figure made her hum softly in her heart.
It's her again... I finally had a chance to be alone with Lu Jun, but now there's this extra follower.
What kind of bewitching potion did this guy give Wu Siduo to make such a beautiful and talented woman willingly submit to him...?
Seriously, what a bastard!
This inexplicable irritation finally made her speak, her voice carrying a hint of reproach she herself was unaware of, breaking the silence between the three:
"Speaking of which, where are Yuki-tei and Hyo-tei? Didn't they come with you?"
Lu Jun was focused on ignoring the stares around him when he heard this. He turned his head and spoke with a hint of languor:
"Oh, them. They're probably in my hotel room right now, happily slacking off."
“I didn’t let them come with me; I gave them a day off to do whatever they wanted.”
He paused, his expression straightening slightly, and continued:
"But don't worry, both of them are now at the quasi-true god level. I have instructed them that their main task is to keep an eye on Emperor Xu's movements and protect him secretly in case of assassination by the Green Skull organization."
"Xu Tiandi is of paramount importance. The Federation cannot afford to lose this leader. If something happens to him, the situation will become truly troublesome."
When the Federation was mentioned, Lu Jun couldn't help but recall various scenes from the original work, and compared with the present, he felt somewhat comforted.
In the original story, the Federation was almost completely infiltrated by the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. Chen Xinjie, the strongest member of the Federation, was a good-for-nothing who was still obsessed with past feelings. He was over two hundred years old and still couldn't forget Long Yeyue.
The vast Federation was completely sidelined by Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect.
Lu Jun was so angry at what he recalled that he laughed.
Such a large federal organization had no one who could truly hold the fort, allowing it to be eroded by external forces.
In contrast, with someone as talented and powerful as Emperor Xu Tian in charge, they dare to challenge even the gods. That's what makes it look like.
Without the strong support of the current Federation, it would have been impossible for him to eradicate the scourge of Shrek Academy so smoothly.
"Indeed."
Gu Yuena nodded, indicating her agreement with Lu Jun's arrangement.
She was naturally aware of Xu Tiandi's importance.
"Speaking of which, where is Di Yue?" Lu Jun changed the subject, the image of that graceful figure appearing in his mind.
Gu Yuena pursed her lips, seemingly quite dissatisfied with certain rules:
"Look, we just received news that she has arrived at the port of a city on the edge of the Eastern Continent."
"As you know, given her sensitive status, the Federation would never allow her to leave the Douluo Continent, let alone come to the complex Eastern Continent."
"There was no other way but to use our own channels and ask Di Tian to find a way to secretly send her over."
"A port on the outskirts?" Lu Jun frowned slightly upon hearing this. "That's quite a distance from Sun and Moon City. It seems we'll have to fly."
He calculated the distance thoughtfully.
“It can fly, but…” Gu Yuena’s eyes darted around as she looked back at Wu Siduo, who was quietly following behind. The thought of shaking her off resurfaced in her mind. “Can Wu Siduo keep up with us?”
Her words carried a subtle, almost imperceptible, probing tone.
Wu Siduo was incredibly intelligent and immediately understood the implied meaning.
Far from showing any displeasure, her face broke into an exceptionally bright and gentle smile as she spoke:
"If this will cause you trouble or slow down your journey, I will go back first and wait in the city."
Her tone was sincere, and her posture was extremely humble.
However, Lu Jun shook his head, his gaze falling on Wu Siduo with a hint of reassurance:
"No need. Wu Siduo, you should come along."
"Perfect timing. I plan to resolve your family's troubles within the next three days, so you won't have to worry about it."
He then looked at Gu Yuena and explained:
"Moreover, it is safest for Di Yue to stay by our side. Even with Di Tian protecting her, it is still hard to guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
"If those two from the Haotian Sect, Titan and Niu Tian, are determined to launch a sneak attack, Di Tian alone may not be able to withstand it. Staying by our side is the safest guarantee."
"I understand..."
When Wu Siduo heard that Lu Jun had taken her matter to heart and was even going to personally resolve it, a hint of emotion and complexity flashed in her eyes, but then she hesitated, looking troubled.
"However, if you intend to fly at maximum speed, I truly cannot match you..."
Just then, Lu Jun's lips curled into a confident smile, and he said loudly:
"It doesn't matter, I have my own way."
Before he finished speaking, he released a burst of soul power from his fingertips, and a clear, melodious sword cry suddenly rang out.
The next moment, the chilling Ice Abyss Sword appeared out of thin air and hovered in front of him.
With a thought, the Ice Abyss Sword swelled in the wind, instantly transforming into a giant sword as wide as a door panel. Its blade shimmered with light, emitting a faint icy blue halo and powerful energy fluctuations, hovering steadily three feet off the ground.
With a light and graceful leap, Lu Jun sat cross-legged on the broad blade of the sword, his movements elegant and effortless.
He patted the areas in front of and behind him, and said with a smile to the two women:
"Get on, everyone! We'll fly there on our swords. We guarantee it'll be several times faster than those soul-guided trains and flying mechs!"
"Wow, flying on a sword!" Upon seeing this, Wu Siduo's beautiful eyes lit up instantly, as if they were filled with stars, and her pretty face was full of surprise and excitement.
This was the first time she had ever witnessed such a wondrous mode of transportation, and she immediately felt an irresistible urge to leap onto the sword. (End of Chapter)
