Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right
Chapter 912 You should have said you wanted to take a shower earlier!
The thought had just risen in Tang Wutong's mind when she suddenly remembered that the ice puppet mark that Lu Jun had planted seemed to have the function of sensing her emotions and even thoughts.
His face flushed bright red instantly, and he hurriedly waved his hands, explaining incoherently:
"No, no! That's not what I meant! I... I meant... it's only right to take you back, after all, we're allies now... Yes, allies should help each other! There's no reluctance! Really!"
She tried to explain herself urgently, but dared not meet Lu Jun's gaze. Her guilty and flustered appearance left Wu Siduo, who was standing next to her, completely baffled.
Lu Jun, however, seemed oblivious to the blush and panic on her face, simply shrugging indifferently.
"Alright, I didn't mind. Let's get going, all I want to do right now is find a bed to lie down in."
Tang Wutong felt as if she had been granted a pardon and dared not say anything more. She took a deep breath and calmed her turbulent emotions.
A soft and sacred pinkish-blue halo emanated from her, the light not dazzling, but carrying a gentle yet powerful lifting force, softly enveloping Lu Jun and Wu Siduo.
In the next instant, the three of them transformed into streaks of light, silently rising from the ground and streaking across the sky above Tiandou City, heading rapidly towards Mingdu in the south.
The god-level speed was far beyond that of ordinary Limit Douluo. The wind howled outside the halo, but Lu Jun inside felt unusually stable, as if he were in a warm and quiet bubble, and drowsiness came over him like waves.
……
Mingdu, a suburban villa.
A pale blue light quietly fell into the courtyard. As the light faded, the figures of the three people were revealed.
Pushing open the familiar door, a fresh and elegant warm scent, mixed with several different floral fragrances, wafted in, creating a stark contrast with the slightly cool evening breeze outside.
Lu Jun paused, looking up in surprise.
The living room, which was originally simple and even a bit cold, was now decorated with a lot of vibrant greenery.
In several corners, there were elegantly shaped flowerpots filled with various flowers and plants whose names I didn't know. Some had tiny, pale purple flowers, others had long, lush, and beautifully shaped leaves, and there was even a hanging vine with tender green branches and tiny, pale yellow trumpet-shaped flowers.
They were clearly well cared for and grew perfectly, adding a warm and natural touch to this villa, which was full of modern soul-guided technology.
"Huh?" Wu Siduo also noticed the change. She helped Lu Jun in and looked around curiously. "The layout of the house... seems to have changed a lot? It feels... more comfortable."
In her words, she had unconsciously come to refer to this villa as her home.
Just then, two slender figures walked down the stairs side by side on one side of the living room.
Hyotei still had that cold and aloof demeanor with a touch of arrogance, her long hair cascading down her back, but this time she was holding an exquisite watering can in her hand.
Snow Empress, with her aloof and snow-like demeanor, quietly followed beside Ice Empress.
Upon seeing Lu Jun and the other two return, Hyotei paused slightly, then raised his chin and casually explained:
"Well, Xue Di and I were just killing time, so we did some decorating at home."
Her gaze swept over the flowers and plants, a fleeting, almost imperceptible tenderness and affection flashing across her beautiful eyes, yet her tone remained deliberately calm:
“We’ve been in the far north for too long. All we see is wind, snow and glaciers. After a while, it gets monotonous.”
"I was just thinking... about growing some flowers and plants at home to add some color and life. Watching them grow feels... pretty good. What do you guys think?" Lu Jun's gaze slowly swept over the plants that brought vitality to the room, a genuine smile appearing on his tired face as he nodded:
"Very nice, really. I didn't expect you to have such leisure and skill. With these things in the house, it definitely feels much warmer and more like a home."
Wu Siduo nodded in agreement, saying, "Sisters, you have such good taste! These flowers and plants are arranged so beautifully."
Upon receiving confirmation, the slight unease in Hyotei's eyes quietly disappeared, and the corners of his mouth curved into an almost imperceptible smile.
Xue Di nodded slightly to Lu Jun and Wu Siduo, a faint warmth spreading across her cool eyes.
After a few more brief words, Wu Siduo's attention quickly returned to Lu Jun. Seeing the undisguised fatigue on his face and the dust still clinging to his clothes, she quickly said:
"Alright, alright, let's stop talking. Lu Jun, go and rest! Look at you, you're all dirty. Don't stand there anymore. Do you want the Ice Empress and Snow Empress to use their soul power to clean you up?"
"It's not troublesome at all..."
Hyotei muttered something under his breath, glanced at Lu Jun, but didn't say anything more.
Without saying a word, Wu Siduo helped Lu Jun and headed towards his room.
Pushing open the door, the room remained simple, but the bed was neatly made, and the window was half-open, allowing for good ventilation.
She asked Lu Jun to sit down by the bed, then turned around and fetched a basin of warm water at a suitable temperature, along with a clean, soft towel and a set of comfortable home clothes.
"Quickly, wipe your face and hands first, get rid of all this dust, and then change into some clean clothes."
Wu Siduo squatted down in front of him, looked up at him, and spoke in a soft tone as if she was afraid of disturbing him.
Lu Jun was indeed too lazy to move at the moment, so he obediently nodded and let her serve him.
Wu Siduo's movements were extremely light and slow. A slightly cool towel, damp with warm water, carefully wiped his dust-covered cheeks, forehead, neck, and then his fingers and wrists.
She avoided his joints, which might be sore from holding the forging posture for a long time, and occasionally her fingertips would accidentally touch his skin, bringing a comfortable coolness.
Her expression was focused and patient, as if she were polishing a precious and fragile piece of porcelain. That delicacy and gentleness was completely different from the cold and sassy girl she was usually, who was also sharp and decisive in battle.
After wiping his face and hands, Lu Jun felt a little better, but the sticky sweat and dust on his body still made him uncomfortable.
He casually raised his hand to loosen the collar of his dust-stained white shirt, muttering to himself:
"Just wiping the outside isn't enough, the inside is uncomfortable too..."
"Hey! What are you doing?!"
Like a startled rabbit, Wu Siduo immediately shrank back, her cheeks instantly flushing red, and her beautiful eyes widened as she stared at him.
"You pervert! Why are you taking your clothes off?!"
Lu Jun's hand, which was unbuttoning his shirt, froze in mid-air as he looked at her innocently.
"I think... wiping like this is too inefficient and uncomfortable. How about... just taking a shower?"
"...You should have told me sooner if you wanted to take a shower!"
Wu Siduo's face turned even redder, and her voice unconsciously rose a little, then she quickly lowered it, with a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.
"Just say it already! Suddenly starting to take off your clothes...it startled me!" (End of Chapter)
