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

Seeing her flustered yet adorable appearance, Lu Jun couldn't help but chuckle:

"What's wrong with being late? There's no emergency or time-limited task waiting for you, so don't be so nervous."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the two soldiers beside him who were staring in disbelief, and laughed:

"Now, you should believe me, right?"

"I believe it!"

The two soldiers then came to their senses, their faces showing genuine admiration. One of them laughed heartily and said:
"As expected of Lord Lu Jun, a man who has made numerous contributions to our Federation, his judgment is truly divine, almost prophetic! We will immediately report to our superior that Wu Siduo has successfully emerged from seclusion!"

After saying that, the two gave Lu Jun and Wu Siduo a standard military salute and then prepared to turn and leave.

"Wait a minute," Lu Jun suddenly called out to them.

Amidst their puzzled gazes, Lu Jun raised his right hand and gently tapped their index finger in the air.

In an instant, the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, becoming exceptionally active. It then transformed into two pure and gentle energy streams, which, as if guided, flowed into the bodies of the two soldiers respectively.

These two soldiers, whose cultivation had been stuck at the peak of Soul King for a long time, felt a jolt throughout their bodies. The solid bottlenecks within their bodies began to loosen violently at this moment, and their soul power spontaneously accelerated its circulation. Their soul rings appeared and disappeared around them, clearly a sign that they were about to break through to the Soul Emperor realm.

"Lord Lu, what is this...?"

The two soldiers felt the surging power within them, the power that was about to break through their barriers. They were both surprised and delighted, and for a moment they were at a loss.

Lu Jun withdrew his finger, smiled calmly, and explained:
"This is to thank you for your hard work in protecting Wu Siduo these past few days. It's a small token of our gratitude as a reward for your protection, to help you break through your bottlenecks, and we hope that you will achieve even greater things in the military in the future."

Upon hearing this, the two soldiers blushed with excitement and bowed deeply to Lu Jun again, their voices choked with emotion.
"Thank you, Lord Lu! Thank you for your kindness! I will swear to serve the Federation to the death and live up to your expectations!"

After saying this, the two left with immense excitement and gratitude, their steps light and quick.

In the corridor, only Lu Jun and Wu Siduo, whose cheeks were still flushed, remained.

Wu Siduo watched the two soldiers, overjoyed at their unexpected breakthrough, leave until their figures disappeared around the corner of the corridor. Only then did she turn her gaze to Lu Jun, her clear eyes filled with a hint of confusion and curiosity:

"Why did you go out of your way to give them special advice? It's just a regular guard duty..."

Lu Jun shook his head, his tone calm yet carrying a casual clarity:
"It was just a small favor. Since they have been so dedicated to protecting you, they deserve some reward for their hard work."

"What may seem like a small favor to us could change the course of their lives. It's never a bad thing to make a good connection."

He changed the subject and looked Wu Siduo up and down. He noticed that although her cultivation had greatly improved and her aura was steady, her hair was slightly disheveled and she was still wearing the same clothes she hadn't changed from during her seclusion. She exuded a sense of urgency and weariness.

He waved his hand dismissively, as if fanning away some non-existent smell, his face showing obvious disdain.

"Alright, now that you've successfully broken through and your realm is stable, there's no need to rush the rest."

He deliberately wrinkled his nose.

"Hey you, how many days have you been in seclusion? You probably haven't had a proper shower in ages, have you? Hurry up and go back to your room, take a hot shower, change into some clean and fresh clothes, and relax your tense nerves."

"Look at yourself now, all rushed and rash. Where is the demeanor of a Federation genius and a newly promoted Limit Douluo?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Siduo was like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, instantly bristling with fur, her fair cheeks turning bright red.

She subconsciously raised her arm, sniffed her own scent, then glared at Lu Jun with a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance, stomping her foot in retort:

"No way, stop talking nonsense! She's an incredibly beautiful young woman!"

"Even if you go into seclusion to cultivate, your body will automatically eliminate impurities and purify itself, so it won't smell bad at all! You're slandering me!"

"Who says all pretty girls have to smell good?"

Lu Jun raised an eyebrow and retorted without any politeness, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"Do you think your poop smells good?"

"Bah bah bah!"

Wu Siduo blushed with embarrassment at his crude and direct metaphor, and spat out repeatedly:

"You...you're disgusting!"

“We’ve all cultivated to such a transcendent level, we can perfectly control and refine the impurities in our bodies long ago, how could we still… still be like ordinary people! Stop talking nonsense!”

"Really?"

Lu Jun pursed his lips, revealing an expression that said, "I don't believe you," with an even stronger sense of mockery in his eyes.

"That's hard to say, what if?" "You...!"

Wu Siduo was furious, feeling that she couldn't argue with this guy at all.

In an effort to regain her composure, Wu Siduo racked her brains and began to organize her thoughts for the next sentence.

Soon, Wu Siduo seemed to have suddenly thought of a way to fight back.

So, her gaze shifted slightly downwards, landing on Lu Jun's lower body, and a sly, mischievous smile appeared on her face, her tone becoming somewhat subtle:
"Hey, Mr. Lu, I've suddenly noticed a problem."

"Huh? What's the problem?"

Seeing her sudden change in expression, Lu Jun felt a sense of unease.

Wu Siduo gently tapped her chin with her finger and said innocently:
"Your waistband... is so close to you."

She blinked her big eyes and gave an innocent smile.

I was a little unhappy when I saw it.

The subtext and provocative meaning behind these words couldn't be clearer.

Lu Jun was taken aback at first, but then immediately realized what was happening.

Hey man, are you waiting for me here?

Who is Lu Jun?

Can you really be intimidated by such a small scene?
Immediately, instead of showing any embarrassment, he revealed an even more meaningful smile, meeting Wu Siduo's slightly smug and provocative gaze without flinching, and slowly retorted:

"Oh? Speaking of this... Judging from your underwear, you're not exactly a good person either."

"what?"

Wu Siduo was taken aback by his sudden counterattack and didn't understand what he meant.

Lu Jun's smile widened as he clearly uttered the second half of the sentence:

"Because I think it likes to show off."

Wu Siduo: "???"

Her brain froze for a full two seconds before she suddenly realized the extremely tricky double entendre in Lu Jun's words.

Thinking of this, my mind went blank for a moment, and my entire face and neck instantly turned bright red, as if they could bleed.

She pointed at Lu Jun, her fingers trembling. She hesitated for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word. All that remained was a surge of shame and indignation, and a feeling of utter defeat and helplessness.

This guy!

This hateful guy!
How exactly does his brain work?

How can someone say such things without batting an eye?
And the counterattack was so sharp that she was completely powerless to defend herself!

"This wasn't something I started. You were just making conversation out of nothing, trying to argue with me about this and even attacking me. You were the one who started it."

Looking at her humiliated and indignant expression, as if she wanted to disappear into the ground, Lu Jun wore a triumphant smile, as if they had just had a relaxed and pleasant conversation.

"I'm not going to talk to you anymore. Go back and take a shower and change your clothes. Get yourself ready first."

"Or I'll let you try it and see if my waistband is tight or not."

"…………You're amazing."

In the end, all Wu Siduo could do was give a helpless thumbs-up.

She was like a little wildcat, completely soaked and defeated by the rain. Her previous defiant spirit had vanished without a trace, and even her seemingly invisible tail drooped down.

Before leaving, she sullenly snorted and glared at Lu Jun before reluctantly turning around and walking back with heavy steps to wash up.

As he walked, he angrily drew circles in his mind.

That wretched Lu Jun! He must be surfing the internet all day again, chatting intimately with that Di Yue. He's gone astray, he's definitely gone astray!
Next time... next time I must find a chance to turn the tables!
Watching her leave in a huff, Lu Jun shook his head with a wry smile.

Playing with the kitten occasionally relieved much of the frustration he felt due to the weakening of the universe's laws. (End of Chapter)
