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

Chapter 696 Asking Di Tian to Explain Huo Yuhao's Incident

"Looking forward to it is fine, but don't forget the important thing."

Di Tian's steady voice interrupted Di Yue's interest in looking around. His gaze narrowed slightly, carrying a hint of reminder.
“Lu Jun specifically warned that there are likely eyes watching you from the shadows. Those two from Haotian Sect are not easy to deal with.”

Upon hearing this, Di Yue snorted dismissively, her crimson eyes still gleaming as she admired the scenery of the foreign port.

She even casually tossed her long golden hair, crossed her arms, making her already stunning curves even more breathtaking, then turned her head to look at the vast sea, her tone filled with absolute certainty:
"What's there to be afraid of? Didn't I say that staying by Lu Jun's side is absolutely safe? I trust him."

"Anyway, I'll follow Lu Jun wherever he goes. This way, I can ensure my safety and also get a good look at the differences between the Eastern Continent and our Douluo Continent. It's a win-win situation. Do you think what I'm saying makes sense?"

Seeing Di Yue's complete dependence on, even bordering on clinging to, Lu Jun, Di Tian's resolute face couldn't help but show a few dark lines, his lips twitching slightly before he could only let out a helpless sigh.

"...That makes sense, but... never mind."

He knew that Di Yue had been imprisoned for too long, and now that she had finally escaped, her temperament was bound to be unruly, so it would be futile to say anything more.

Just as Di Yue and Di Tian were talking, a sharp, piercing whistle suddenly came from the sky.

A streak of icy blue light streaked across the sky at an astonishing speed, landing precisely on the open ground not far in front of Di Yue, like a meteorite falling to earth. The powerful airflow even stirred up some dust from the ground.

The light receded, revealing the massive, door-sized Ice Abyss Sword.

Immediately afterwards, the sword flashed and disappeared, and three figures appeared, landing steadily.

It was Lu Jun, Gu Yuena, and Wu Siduo.

As soon as Lu Junfu stopped, he strode towards Di Tian and Di Yue with a smile on his face, and just as he raised his hand to greet them.

However, before he could speak, Di Yue, who was admiring the sea view, caught a glimpse of that familiar figure out of the corner of her eye. Her crimson eyes instantly burst forth with an even brighter light than before, as if she had found her most beloved toy.

She let out a delighted exclamation:
"Lu Jun~!"

Before the words had even faded, she transformed into a golden streak, carrying a fragrant breeze, and pounced on him without warning. To Lu Jun's slightly astonishment, she threw herself into his arms, her jade-like arms tightly encircling his neck, her warm and soft body giving him a solid and intimate embrace.

"Uh……"

Lu Jun's body stiffened slightly as he felt the hot, soft, and incredibly elastic body in his arms, and Di Yue's undisguised dependence and joy. An awkward yet polite smile appeared on his face.

Faced with such a passionate, lively, and outgoing Di Yue, even with his rich experience, he was momentarily overwhelmed, his hands hovering in mid-air, unsure whether to hug her or not.

Behind Lu Jun, Gu Yuena, who had just landed, saw this scene and her beautiful eyes narrowed instantly. Her aura cooled down at a visible speed, and a chilling killing intent spread out, causing Wu Siduo next to her to subconsciously shrink her neck.

However, this murderous aura was not directed at Lu Jun, but rather firmly locked onto the golden figure clinging to Lu Jun like a koala.

snort!
Gu Yuena snorted coldly in her heart, gritting her teeth inwardly.

Relying on its status as an imperial auspicious beast, favored by destiny, it acts with such utter recklessness...

That’s all.

She eventually suppressed the urge to lash out on the spot, but her eyes grew increasingly cold, clearly consumed by jealousy.

Lu Jun exchanged a few pleasantries with Di Yue, then gently patted her back. Di Yue seemed satisfied and reluctantly released her arms, taking a half-step back from Lu Jun's embrace.

A bright smile radiated from her stunningly beautiful face, like a blooming sunflower, as she eagerly asked, "I've arrived in the Eastern Continent as promised. What's our next plan? Where are we going to explore?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jun raised his hand and scratched his cheek, his expression somewhat helpless, and said frankly:

"A plan? To be honest, there isn't any detailed plan. The situation on the Eastern Continent is complicated, so we'll just have to adapt to the circumstances."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Di Yue, his tone reassuring:

"In short, you should stay with us for now. This will at least ensure your safety and prevent a sudden attack from the Haotian Sect."

Upon hearing this, Di Tian frowned slightly, his gaze falling on Lu Jun with a mixture of arrogance and bewilderment befitting a beast god:

"I don't understand. They are just the two sect leaders of Haotian Sect. Why would they make you so wary, and even require you to protect Di Yue so closely?"

"With my abilities, even if the two of them join forces, what can they do to me? They are definitely no match for me."

Lu Jun shook his head, his expression turning serious, and said in a deep voice:
“Di Tian, ​​you are unaware of this. The two sect leaders of Haotian Sect, Titan and Niu Tian, ​​are actually at the level of divine officials.”

"It's just that they've deliberately concealed their presence and are lurking in the Douluo Continent."

"Let alone both of them coming at you together, even if either of them came alone, with the abilities of that priest, you would probably find it difficult to defend yourself properly if you faced him alone."

"God, priest...?!"

Di Tian's pupils suddenly contracted, and the arrogant look on his face instantly froze, replaced by an incredulous shock.

As the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King with 800,000 years of cultivation, he knew what the word "Divine Official" represented—a terrifying existence that had already stepped one foot into the realm of a third-level god.

His lips twitched uncontrollably a few times; his previous boastful words now seemed utterly pale, and he could only say dryly:
“...I see. Never mind, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

However, Di Tiantian subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and his gaze towards Lu Jun and Gu Yuena became more solemn:

"However, I am quite relieved that Di Yue can stay by the side of the Lord and you."

"So, do you need my participation in the next phase of the operation?"

He looked at Gu Yuena and asked respectfully before speaking his last sentence.

Gu Yuena hesitated for a moment, then looked at Lu Jun with her purple eyes, indicating that he should make the decision.

Lu Jun picked up the conversation and said to Di Tian:
"Your personal involvement should not be required for the upcoming trip to the Eastern Continent."

"However, there is another matter I would like to ask you for a favor."

He changed the subject:
"You and Huo Yuhao from ten thousand years ago should be considered old acquaintances, and you should be quite familiar with each other, right?"

"After this trip to the Eastern Continent is over, could you tell us everything about him in detail?"

"That would be even better, including those real events from ten thousand years ago that have been buried by the dust of history." (End of Chapter)
