Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 148: Zhu Zhuqing Joins the Battle

"Alright!" Dugu Yan couldn't watch anymore. What was all this nonsense? Were they really trying to tempt Dan Heng like this? Did they think he was an ordinary man?

For other men, this posture might be very alluring, but for Dan Heng, it must have been utterly tiresome by now.

Dugu Yan smirked as she grabbed the sultry woman's arm and yanked her down from the service counter.

"What are you doing? Little girl, don't make me slap you!" The sultry woman, enraged, was about to slap Dugu Yan.

"Slap...!!!"

Dugu Yan slapped her first.

The sultry woman was instantly stunned, staring blankly at Dugu Yan.

"Do you think I'm giving you face? My name is Dugu Yan! My grandfather is the Poison Douluo! Dare you make a move on me?" Dugu Yan said with a cold laugh.

"..."

The sultry woman immediately wilted.

Who would dare to provoke the granddaughter of a Title Douluo?

She obediently let Dugu Yan throw her out, not daring to speak a word.

Dugu Yan returned with a grin on her face, looking at Dan Heng.

"Dan Heng, your romantic luck is quite strong, huh? Does your wife know about this?"

Dan Heng rubbed his temples, feeling quite helpless.

At that moment, familiar footsteps approached, heading toward the service counter again.

Both Dan Heng and Dugu Yan looked up, and saw a youthful-looking woman with a strong build, wearing a blue skirt, walking toward them.

"Another different style..." Dugu Yan murmured quietly.

The youthful girl arrived at the counter, her big, sparkling eyes shyly looking at Dan Heng.

"Mr. Dan Heng, um, can I talk to you for a moment?" she asked.

Dan Heng paused for a moment, "Only within the scope of work, limited to this location."

The shy girl shook her head, a blush appearing on her cheeks as she whispered, "Um, it's personal... I... I've admired you for a long time..."

"...I have a wife, and I'm not interested in meeting you." Dan Heng said coldly, without hesitation.

The shy girl immediately showed a look of disappointment, her eyes filled with sorrow. "Mr. Dan Heng, I'm a very traditional girl."

Dan Heng merely hummed, lowering his head to continue reading.

Since she knew he had a wife, she should just leave.

"I can be a mistress."

The girl added quietly.

"..."

Dan Heng's temple twitched.

Dugu Yan froze for a moment, staring at the girl. So this was what "traditional" meant? That was taking it too far, wasn't it?!

"Hahaha...!!!"

"Dan Heng, did you hear that? She's willing to be a mistress, and you still won't agree?" Dugu Yan bent over laughing, clutching her stomach, tears almost streaming from her eyes.

The readers in the library all looked over, confused.

The shy girl stared at Dan Heng, full of hope, waiting for him to change his mind.

"..."

Dan Heng took a deep breath, genuinely frustrated.

"Silence!"

Dan Heng's cold snort immediately silenced Dugu Yan. The moment he spoke, she felt as though her clothes had been ripped off and she was thrown to the extreme north.

The pressure from Dan Heng's words was even stronger than what her grandfather could deliver.

The shy girl also trembled in fear.

"Mr. Dan Heng..."

Dan Heng looked at her seriously. "I don't know who sent you, but tell those behind you that I don't appreciate such jokes. Don't waste our time."

The shy girl nodded repeatedly, her face pale. "I... I understand..."

She turned and fled immediately.

Dugu Yan looked at Dan Heng with a puzzled expression. Though he was back to reading like a sheep, the feeling she got from his threat moments ago didn't seem like just an illusion.

But she didn't think it was just an illusion!

Dugu Yan took a deep breath, her face serious as she looked at Dan Heng. "Dan Heng! You actually yelled at me?! And scared me! You're not an ordinary person, are you?"

Dan Heng fell silent, feeling some regret for using his soul power earlier.

Power wasn't a means for him to deceive others, and now he had almost hurt someone weak. It was also bringing trouble to himself.

"No, you just got startled."

Dan Heng explained.

"Impossible! My feelings are very accurate! I..." Dugu Yan was about to insist when a series of footsteps rang out behind her.

"???"

Dugu Yan furrowed her brows.

She was starting to get annoyed. Wasn't this just harassment?!

Dan Heng looked up and saw the new arrival.

Compared to the previous three women, the girl who had arrived this time exuded a realness from the inside out, with no pretensions.

With fiery red short hair that highlighted her jade-like face and large, expressive eyes filled with fiery passion, she seemed like a living flame—intense but not lewd.

Despite exposing her long white legs, it was hard to think of anything inappropriate.

It was Huo Wu.

"Dan Heng, this time, seems like a real beauty," Dugu Yan muttered quietly.

Huo Wu walked briskly. Before Dugu Yan had finished speaking, she was already at the service counter, folding her arms and sizing up Dan Heng with a scrutinizing gaze.

"???"

Dan Heng felt as if he had become some kind of exhibit in a cage.

"You're Dan Heng?" Huo Wu asked.

Dan Heng nodded slightly. "Yes, is there something you need help with?"

Huo Wu curled a strand of fiery red hair around her finger, leaned forward on the counter, and bluntly asked, "What do you think of me?"

"..."

Dan Heng sighed inwardly. How did this again?

"Or rather, how do I compare to your wife?" Huo Wu's eyes sparkled, eagerly awaiting his answer.

Dan Heng's lips twitched. Alright, this one at least wasn't trying to flirt with him.

He could tell that Huo Wu was here because of Gu Yue Na.

So, he shook his head.

Huo Wu immediately became excited, staring at Dan Heng seriously, her lips curling into a grin. "Are you saying she's not as beautiful as me?"

Dan Heng clarified:

"No, my wife is the most beautiful. What I mean is, there's no comparison. Don't compare beauty with her."

Huo Wu's face darkened instantly, her smile disappearing completely.

Dugu Yan chuckled, recognizing Huo Wu. "Huo Wu, since you asked that question, it means you've already seen Dan Heng's wife. Why ask again?"

"Although I don't want to admit it, Dan Heng must've had some incredibly good luck to marry a goddess-like woman... There's no one more beautiful than her."

Dugu Yan said seriously.

Huo Wu snorted, glaring at Dan Heng, and pouted, "I don't need you to say anything. I already know!"

With that, Huo Wu turned and walked away, stomping on the floor with each step.

Dugu Yan was gleeful. "Looks like another woman was defeated by your wife!"

Dan Heng shook his head helplessly. He was very curious about the women who had come to trouble him. Which troublesome people had he offended this time?

Outside the library, Huo Wu was fuming, stomping her feet as she walked.

Huo Wushuang hurriedly caught up with her, speaking to her softly, "Alright, Xiaowu, why are you still angry? They're a happily married couple, we..."

Huo Wu glared at Huo Wushuang. "Who's 'we'? I never liked that Dan Heng! I'm just... just..."

Huo Wu found it hard to admit.

Gu Yue Na had crushed her in terms of womanhood.

She had hoped to strike back, to make Dan Heng fall for her and sweep him off his feet.

But Dan Heng remained unmoved.

He even praised Gu Yue Na as the perfect woman right in front of her. It was like biting into something sour!

Another blow to her pride!

They say the grass is always greener on the other side, but Dan Heng wasn't fooled at all!

Huo Wushuang sighed. "Yes, not 'we', just me alone..."

Huo Wu coldly sneered, "What do you mean 'alone'? Where's Feng Xiaotian? Why didn't he come with you? Doesn't he want to see who could marry that Teacher Gu?"

"Now, I'll tell you, you're no match for Dan Heng! At least he's devoted!"

Huo Wu started to belittle Huo Wushuang and Feng Xiaotian.

These two had seen their fair share of beauties, but they were still captivated by Gu Yue Na.

Feng Xiaotian even stopped pursuing Huo Wu altogether.

Though she hated being pursued by Feng Xiaotian, how dare he suddenly turn to pursue someone else?

"Yes, yes..." Huo Wushuang was utterly embarrassed, trying to appease Huo Wu with gestures.

Huo Wu didn't continue to argue with him, snorting and walking away.

Blue Tyrant Academy had arranged an entire small building for the Blazing Fire Team and the Divine Wind Team. When Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang returned, Feng Xiaotian had already come back and was waiting for them in the room.

As soon as Huo Wu saw Feng Xiaotian, she immediately started mocking him with a sarcastic tone.

"Well, if it isn't the great romantic Feng Xiaotian? What are you doing here? Why aren't you sticking close to Teacher Gu, fawning over her?"

Huo Wu crossed her arms, sneering at Feng Xiaotian.

Feng Xiaotian sighed and shook his head, saying, "I wish I could, but she's a married woman, and I am just a rogue scoundrel. How could I possibly do something so shameless?"

"It's a pity, though. My love story ended before it even began...."

"Xiao Wu, only now do I realize how wonderful you are."

Feng Xiaotian looked at Huo Wu with deep emotion.

"Get lost!!! Don't disgust me!!!" Huo Wu cursed furiously.

Feng Xiaotian put on a pitiful expression.

"Xiao Wu, I'm here to atone for my sins. I've obtained an important piece of information, and I want to share it with you."

"What information?" Huo Wu sat down, looking at Feng Xiaotian with curiosity.

Feng Xiaotian immediately became spirited, pulling a letter out of his pocket and handing it to Huo Wu.

"It's about the real reason why the Thunderclap Team lost!"

"After reading it, I realized that they totally deserved to lose. In fact, I'm deeply disappointed in all the previous generations of soul master teams. They were all a bunch of idiots!"

Feng Xiaotian spoke with great intensity.

Huo Wu's curiosity grew. She opened the letter, which was written by Yu Tianxin, detailing their entire battle against the Blue Tyrant Team.

After reading it, Huo Wu thought for a moment before smiling.

"So that's how it is. The reason they were able to defeat the Thunderclap Team was mainly because of the inherent flaws in their thunder-attribute abilities! That spirit power fusion technique was not enough to bridge the gap in strength!"

"Our attributes are nothing like the Thunderclap Team's—no such weaknesses."

"In our match against the Blue Tyrant Team, victory is ours."

Huo Wu declared confidently.

Huo Wushuang and Feng Xiaotian both nodded excitedly.

They couldn't think of any way the Lanba Team could possibly win.

—

Afternoon, Training Grounds.

After returning from the library, Gu Yue Na wore an expression of displeasure.

At the library, she had overheard Dugu Yan mentioning Huo Wu, which immediately put the thought in her mind—this woman needed to experience the taste of defeat.

Trying to steal what was hers?

Did they really think so little of her?

Tai Long and the others stood in two rows. Seeing Gu Yue Na's displeased expression, they thought it was because of their poor performance in the morning against Huo Wu and her group.

Gu Yue Na looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing at the front, and said, "Zhuqing, you will participate in the match against the Blazing Fire Team."

"Yes, Mistress!" Zhu Zhuqing immediately responded.

Tai Long and the others were visibly thrilled.

With Zhu Zhuqing joining them, the Lanba Team might not necessarily lose to the Blazing Fire Team!

"Now, practice your team coordination with Zhu Zhuqing included."

Gu Yue Na commanded.

—

Spirit Hall.

Salas reported the information from the women he had sent to test Dan Heng back to Bibi Dong, his expression somewhat tense.

He feared that Bibi Dong would be displeased with the unexpected outcome and punish him.

Seated on her throne, Bibi Dong remained silent, her slender hand clenched into a fist, propping up her forehead. A hint of displeasure flickered in her eyes.

Dan Heng's reaction had once again brought back memories of Gu Yue Na's smug expression from before.

Was her love fake, while Gu Yue Na's love was real?

What gave Dan Heng the right to reject those beauties?

Did men really have such strong self-control?

Bibi Dong was furious. Though she could easily decide the fate of Dan Heng and his family, if she acted rashly, she would be admitting defeat completely.

What she wanted was for Gu Yue Na to understand—love didn't exist!

If she couldn't have it, then love simply didn't exist in this world!

And yet, Salas had failed her...

Her gaze gradually sharpened as she turned it toward Salas.

Salas lowered his head, instinctively holding his breath.

This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.

Being stared at by Bibi Dong, he felt like a small animal being watched by a venomous snake, ready to be devoured at any moment.

"Your Holiness, perhaps our approach was too direct this time. Since it was done openly, he might have refused to avoid a scandal."

"Oh?" Bibi Dong looked at Salas. "Go on."

"If we create a situation where he encounters temptation in a private setting, where no one else will know, then as a man, he surely won't be able to resist!"

Salas hurriedly suggested.

At this moment, his mind was working at full speed, desperately trying to come up with a "brilliant idea."

"How exactly?" Bibi Dong asked casually.

"It's like this..."

Salas began to explain his scheme.

After listening, Bibi Dong nodded slightly. Indeed, it was a difficult situation for any man to refuse—even as a woman, she understood just how tempting it was.

"Fine. I will give you one more chance. Go execute it."

"Yes!"
