Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 240: Differential Treatment of the Angel Sacred Sword
Chapter 240 - 240: Differential Treatment of the Angel Sacred Sword
Zhu Zhuyun was absolutely mortified!
She had planned to go on a hunger strike!
Who said she was just waiting around to eat Mr. Dan Heng's cooking?
Zi Ji chuckled slyly, her eyes drifting over the chests of the Zhu sisters, and said, "It's okay, we totally understand. You two clearly have big appetites. And besides, brother-in-law's cooking is just too good!"
"..."
Zhu Zhuqing felt like she was being harassed.
Mealtime.
The aroma of the food wafted through the entire courtyard.
Zhu Zhuyun had originally intended to shut herself in and not come out.
Even when Zhu Zhuqing called for her, she refused to come out, saying she wasn't hungry.
Bi Ji, seeing this, spoke at the door, "Brother-in-law made a new dish today, Zhuyun. Even I came to try it!"
Creak...
Zhu Zhuyun came out after all, looking a bit embarrassed and muttering softly:
"I... As a guest, I should follow the host's lead. I can't turn down the mistress's kind offer..."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at her sister silently, then nodded without saying anything.
Everyone then headed to the main hall and sat down to eat.
Zhu Zhuyun had a surprisingly good appetite. Though she started out a bit reserved, before long she was grabbing food faster than anyone else.
Her small mouth shone with oil as she ate enthusiastically.
All her earlier determination to fast had completely vanished.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at her sister like she had a headache, a row of dark lines forming on her forehead. She opened her mouth several times to say something, but in the end said nothing.
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
Zhu Zhuqing immediately excused herself to answer it, as if granted a reprieve.
"Xue Qinghe" followed Zhu Zhuqing into the room.
Zi Ji rolled her eyes when she saw her, muttering under her breath, "Another one here to mooch food..."
Both Xue Qinghe and Zhu Zhuyun blushed.
"Shut up," Gu Yuena said with a frown.

Zi Ji didn't dare say anything else.
"Mr. Dan Heng, I have a small request."
Xue Qinghe gave an awkward smile, walked up to Dan Heng, and pulled out a golden holy sword from her storage soul tool.
"Hmm?"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
The moment the golden holy sword appeared, a sacred aura instantly filled the room.
Zhu Zhuyun exclaimed in shock, "Th-The Angelic Holy Sword?! Why is it in your hands, Crown Prince of Heaven Dou?"
Bi Ji also looked at the sword in surprise and said:
"I've felt this aura before. Back when the Evil Soul Beasts ran rampant, a female Titled Douluo used this very sword, leading the Spirit Hall soul masters to wipe out all the Evil Soul Beasts!"
Zi Ji scoffed, "What's so amazing about that? It doesn't look that great to me!"
Xue Qinghe looked at Dan Heng again and said, "Mr. Dan Heng, could you take a look at this sword? Ever since the gods descended, it's been different somehow."
Dan Heng's mouth twitched slightly.Why did everything always end up on his plate?
He knew this sword better than anyone.
He had even carved divine runes on it before.
Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes immediately, like a cat that had caught a scent, her gaze flicking between Dan Heng's face and the sword.
"Husband, you've seen a lot. Why don't you take a look for her?"
Dan Heng nodded, silently cursing Poseidon in his heart.
This was all his fault for spouting nonsense and making Gu Yuena suspicious.
He began sensing the divine aura inside the blade.
It was indeed the aura of the God of Angels.
It had now been fully awakened.
"CLANG...!!"He casually drew the sword. The gleaming blade shone brightly, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daylight.
The holy aura intensified. Everyone in the room felt a sense of spiritual purification.
A faint golden glow seemed to cloak each of them like a light veil.
"!!!"
Xue Qinghe was dumbfounded.
She had come to ask for help in drawing the sword, yet Dan Heng just pulled it out so effortlessly?
Why?!
A sword that even the Angel Clan couldn't use—Dan Heng drew it like it was nothing?
She and Qian Daoliu had asked the other elders to try drawing it, but none had succeeded...
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Gu Yuena asked, puzzled.
Xue Qinghe snapped out of it and forced a laugh. "Actually... the thing I wanted to ask about was why I couldn't draw the sword myself."
"???"
Dan Heng was speechless.
Are you serious? Are you here to stir up trouble and mess with my peaceful home life?
Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes and glanced again at the sword in Dan Heng's hand.
Suddenly, she seemed to understand something.
"Your Highness, have you ever heard of a woman named Qian Yuhan?"
Zhu Zhuqing and the other women immediately perked up their ears, curiosity piqued.
Poseidon had deliberately mentioned that woman before—she had once pursued Dan Heng passionately.
How could they not gossip about that?
Xue Qinghe froze slightly, then looked at Gu Yuena in surprise and blurted out, "How did you know...? She was the ancestor of the Angel Clan, the Angel God, and the first Pope of Spirit Hall!"
"!!!"
Aside from Gu Yuena, Bi Ji and the other three girls all looked shocked.
If that was the same person, then how could Dan Heng be involved with her?
He couldn't have been from the same era as the Angel God, could he?
Then... just who was Dan Heng, really?
How could a human live that long?
Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun were both stunned, their minds going blank.
Bi Ji and Zi Ji, on the other hand, could accept it. They knew just how terrifying Dan Heng's strength was. If he were just an ordinary human, now that would be strange!
Dan Heng rubbed his brow and sheathed the Angelic Holy Sword again.
Xue Qinghe continued:
"This sword... was actually left behind by the Angel God. It eventually ended up in my hands. I could use it before, but ever since the descent of the gods, I haven't been able to draw it. But now, Mr. Dan Heng pulled it out so easily. Could there be some secret to it?"
Dan Heng's mouth twitched again.Great. She's not going to let me live in peace either.
Gu Yuena said calmly, "What secret? It's just a sword. If you've got the strength, you can draw it."
As she spoke, she took the Angelic Holy Sword and gripped the hilt.
"Careful..." Xue Qinghe couldn't help but warn.
"CLANG...!"Gu Yuena also pulled the sword out effortlessly.
"???"
Xue Qinghe's jaw dropped.
What the heck? She and her grandfather couldn't even budge it, yet this couple just pulled it out like nothing?
Dan Heng glanced at Gu Yuena and keenly noticed her energy churning. She was clearly not as relaxed as she seemed.
Her struggling with the sword only made Dan Heng more uneasy.
"That's what I'm saying! It's just a sword—what's the big deal..." Zi Ji reached out and grabbed the Angelic Holy Sword.
She pulled hard—it didn't budge."Huh?"
She tried harder, gritting her teeth, using all her strength—but the sword remained still.
Xue Qinghe finally relaxed after seeing this. This was how it was supposed to be!
Dan Heng couldn't take it anymore and quickly said:
"There's nothing mysterious about it. The sword's divinity has awakened. If it recognizes you, you can draw it. If not, then no. Is that all?"
Dan Heng almost sounded like he was trying to kick her out.
Xue Qinghe blinked, still confused, then got up and left...(End of Chapter)
