Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo.

"Excuse me, are you Wu Siduo, the top student at Xingluo Academy, who enjoys reading 'The Genius Soul Master Falls in Love with Me,' 'The Overbearing Pavilion Master's Forced Love,' and 'The Cold-Hearted Noodle Tower Master's Runaway Little Wife'?"

Su Mo leaned close to Wu Siduo's ear and whispered something.

"Ah~"

Hearing Su Mo reveal her deepest, most shameful secret without missing a single word, Wu Siduo, regaining her senses, let out a scream like a groundhog.

"You, you, you..."

When the secret was revealed, Wu Siduo's pretty face turned bright red. She was so ashamed and indignant that she could barely speak.

"Wu Siduo, you don't want others to know about this, do you?"

Su Mo took a step back, crossed his arms, and threatened Wu Siduo with a playful expression.

"You dare!"

Upon hearing that Su Mo was going to reveal her secret, Wu Siduo didn't have time to think and grabbed Su Mo's collar, threatening him fiercely.

Su Mo shrugged, spreading his hands dismissively, and said, "Why wouldn't I dare? Don't forget you can't beat me!"

"you……"

Wu Siduo was rendered speechless by Su Mo's retort.

"Are you a spirit-type Soul Master?"

After a moment of silence, Wu Siduo stared at each word and said.

Aside from a spirit-type Soul Master, Wu Siduo couldn't think of anyone else who could extract these secrets from her.

"Not too stupid!"

Su Mo nodded approvingly.

Just as Wu Siduo launched an attack on him, he immediately used illusion magic to control Wu Siduo and casually opened the box for her.

Seeing Su Mo openly admit his identity as a spirit-type soul master, Wu Siduo felt a surge of frustration.

With her strength, as long as she didn't encounter a mental-type Soul Master, who was practically a "bug" in the early stages, she would have been able to disregard any other type of Soul Master.

But the Su Mo she's encountered now happens to be a spirit-type soul master.

Although the development of the mental power system has made the unpredictable mental attacks of mental-type Soul Masters a relic of the past.

However, in the early stages, when other types of Soul Masters had not yet cultivated their spiritual power to the Spirit Sea Realm and lacked means to defend against spiritual attacks, the spiritual attacks of Spiritual Power Soul Masters were still extremely terrifying and could be said to be completely undefendable.

"Wasn't it supposed to be that spirit-type soul masters are extremely rare? How come the person I just randomly met on the street is a spirit-type soul master?"

Wu Siduo screamed wildly in her heart.

For a moment, Wu Siduo felt like she was extremely unlucky. First, she was forced by her family to visit a distant relative in Donghai City.

Then, while I was taking a break to clear my head, someone took advantage of me for nothing.

He wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but found that the other party was actually a spirit-type soul master, which is the rarest type of soul master.

"Hey, talk to me, stop playing dead!"

Seeing Wu Siduo suddenly fall silent, Su Mo urged her impatiently.

"I see!"

Wu Siduo gritted her teeth in resentment, her eyes blazing with fury as she glared at Su Mo. Then, feigning reluctance, she unzipped her clothes.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

Seeing that Wu Siduo was about to take off her clothes at the slightest provocation, Su Mo was so frightened that she quickly stopped her and looked around.

Luckily, there weren't many people at the beach in the morning, otherwise, if a passerby had seen me, I would definitely have been mistaken for a pervert.

"Isn't this what you wanted me to do?"

Wu Siduo glared at Su Mo fiercely and said through gritted teeth.

She remembered clearly how Su Mo had stared intently at her chest just now.

"..."

Su Mo was speechless at Wu Siduo's statement. It was clearly because she had read too many romance novels and overthought things, misinterpreting Su Mo's meaning, but now she was blaming Su Mo.

"Read fewer romance novels in the future, and stop overthinking!"

Su Mo raised his hand to rub his temples, waved his hand, and said to Wu Siduo in an annoyed tone.

Seeing Su Mo's "I really have no interest" look, Wu Siduo belatedly realized that she had been overthinking things, but she couldn't be entirely blamed.

"That's exactly how the male and female leads in 'The Overbearing Lord's Forced Love' met."

Wu Siduo muttered something under her breath.

"What did you say?"

Seeing Wu Siduo muttering to herself without making a sound, Su Mo asked her out of curiosity.

"It's nothing!"

Wu Siduo shook her head frantically; her mutterings just now were something she absolutely couldn't let anyone else know.

Otherwise, her title of "Number One Genius in Xingluo" would be ruined.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Once she calmed down, Wu Siduo crossed her arms and spoke arrogantly.

Although Wu Siduo's attempt to change the subject was so clumsy it was almost laughable, Su Mo was too lazy to delve into it. "I'm just curious, what are you doing lying on the beach all day?"

Is it strange to lie on the beach?

Wu Siduo retorted in an unfriendly tone, even with a hint of provocation.

Seeing this, Su Mo retorted without hesitation, "Lying on the beach is not surprising, but I've never seen an idiot like you lying on the beach in casual clothes before."

"you……"

Wu Siduo was furious with Su Mo, but she couldn't refute him.

Ignoring Wu Siduo's murderous glare, Su Mo grinned and said, "Tell me your troubles and make me happy."

Someone like Wu Siduo, who acts crazy so early in the morning, wearing casual clothes and lying down on the beach, must have encountered something upsetting.

What Su Mo likes most is to be a caring older brother and comfort others.

"Happiness my ass!"

Wu Siduo retorted irritably.

"Then I'll ask myself!"

Su Mo said in a serious tone.

"You dare!"

Wu Siduo glared at him and threatened him in an unfriendly tone.

"You can't beat me anyway."

Su Mo shrugged, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"you--!"

Wu Siduo was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she was speechless.

Suddenly, Wu Siduo fell silent, turned her head, and gazed at the endless coastline in the distance. Her voice was low as she asked, "What do you think... is the meaning of human existence?"

"???"

Hearing the indescribable sadness in Wu Siduo's tone, Su Mo was filled with questions. Why did she suddenly become so emo?

Seeing that Su Mo did not answer, Wu Siduo said to herself with a sad expression, "Do you know that ever since my martial soul awakened, the way my family treats me is like a completely different person?"

"All their love and pampering for me has disappeared. The thing they say to me most every day is to urge me to train."

"I was like their puppet, undergoing all sorts of rigorous training day after day under their control."

"I don't understand why. Just because I'm talented, does that mean I should bear the burden of everyone's expectations? To fulfill their long-rotted dream of restoring their country?"

Wu Siduo became more and more agitated as she spoke, her tone carrying a hint of inexplicable sorrow.

"The dream of restoring the nation!"

Upon hearing these three words, Su Mo already had a general idea of ​​Wu Siduo's origins.

Coming from Xingluo City and restoring the kingdom, coupled with Wu Siduo's skill just now, Su Mo was almost 100% certain that Wu Siduo was a descendant of the Dai family.
