Chapter 5

The raging Fire Ape King roared as it charged forward, and Chu Jun decisively turned to flee. This beast was in a berserk state, and if caught, he would only be torn to pieces. Just as Chu Jun ran away, the tree where he had been hiding was violently smashed by the Fire Ape King, the impact was quite terrifying. Chu Jun took large strides and ran, suddenly feeling a scorching hot breath from behind. Almost instinctively, Chu Jun braked and crouched down, a fist-sized fireball grazed his scalp.

*Boom!*

The area in front of him turned into a sea of fire, the shockwave from the fireball explosion threw Chu Jun backward, rolling him several meters. The bloodshot, one-eyed Fire Ape King had already rushed to his side, lifting its leg to stomp on Chu Jun's head.

"Ah!" Zhao Yu exclaimed in shock, knowing that Chu Jun would surely be stomped to death. She closed her eyes, unable to bear the sight, but what she heard was a muffled, agonized roar from the Fire Ape King. Zhao Yu quickly opened her eyes and saw Chu Jun rolling to the side in a sorry state, while a weapon was stuck in the Fire Ape King's rear end, which was precisely Chu Jun's strange-looking weapon.

It turned out that in its rage, the Fire Ape King had lost its reason, only thinking of the most violent way to crush Chu Jun's head, but was unexpectedly stabbed from behind. The Fire Ape King jumped in pain, bent down, and grabbed Chu Jun's shoulders, throwing him forcefully. Chu Jun flew out and crashed heavily into a tree, spitting out a mouthful of blood and lying still on the ground.

The Fire Ape King had no time to check if Chu Jun was dead or alive, it turned its head with its buttocks jutting out, trying to see what had injured its rear. It felt around and grabbed the exposed part of the military dagger. After Zhao Yu's shock, she wouldn't miss such a great opportunity. She cast a spell and pointed, sending her long sword flying through the air. The Fire Ape King, enduring the intense pain and trying to remove the "thorn in its eye and rear," was pierced through the chest by the flying sword. It let out a mournful roar and fell backward, the military dagger completely embedded in its buttocks. The corpse twitched once and then lay still.

Zhao Yu's shock subsided, and she weakly leaned against a nearby tree, panting.

"Hehe, indeed exciting!" A tall, slender man emerged from a hidden spot and walked straight toward Zhao Yu, a sinister smile on his face.

Zhao Yu's expression changed abruptly, and she tried to recall her flying sword with a hand gesture. The man flashed to her side and pressed several acupoints on her body.

"Xu Jing, what do you want?" Zhao Yu shouted, both shocked and angry.

This man named Xu Jing was ugly, with narrow eyes, a cruel and greedy look. He lowered his head to examine Zhao Yu's beautiful face and her undulating bosom, his eyes burning with desire. He laughed and said, "Truly worthy of being Zhao Yu from the Ice and Jade Duo, even your anger is exceptionally charming, it could steal one's soul!"

He squatted down, intoxicated by the sight of the beautiful woman lying on her back, his eyes openly filled with naked desire.

Zhao Yu felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and she sternly said, "Xu Jing, if you dare touch me, my master won't let you off!"

A hint of cruelty flashed in Xu Jing's eyes, and he laughed, "Although Yu Zhenzi is powerful, my master isn't weak either!"

"Yun Congzi can protect you for a moment, but not for a lifetime!" Zhao Yu said coldly.

Xu Jing pulled the treasure pouch from Zhao Yu's waist and laughed, "Thank you for the reminder, I won't leave any隐患 behind!"

As he spoke, he probed the treasure pouch with his mind, his eyes flashing with joy. He put the treasure pouch away and greedily examined Zhao Yu's curvaceous body, laughing, "Zhao Yu, this is your own fault. If you had handed over the treasure earlier, none of this would have happened, and I wouldn't have had to chase you for hundreds of miles!"

A trace of panic flashed in Zhao Yu's clear eyes, and she shouted, "Do you want to kill me to cover your tracks?"

Xu Jing laughed lewdly, "The Phoenix Ice of Tenghuang Pavilion and the Jade Zhao Yu of Zhengtian Gate are known as the Ice and Jade Duo, the fairies in men's hearts. It's a pity to kill you like this!" He reached out and touched Zhao Yu's porcelain-like face.

Zhao Yu's face turned bright red, her eyes filled with anger, and her body trembled with rage. Xu Jing was amused by her angry beauty and couldn't wait to press this top-notch beauty under him, his evil fire rising in his lower abdomen. He laughed lewdly, "Zhao Yu, if you obediently become my woman and satisfy me, I might consider letting you go!"

"Spit, I, Zhao Yu, will never let you get away with it, even if I become a ghost!" Zhao Yu shouted, her voice tinged with a hint of despair.

Xu Jing laughed, "After you taste the extreme pleasure, you won't say that anymore!" He eagerly kissed Zhao Yu's pink lips, but she spat a mouthful of saliva on his face.

Xu Jing wiped the saliva off his face, furious, and shouted, "Ungrateful! What kind of Ice and Jade Duo are you, just a woman for men to use! I'll break you today and keep you, using you every day!" He took out a porcelain bottle and said excitedly, "After taking this Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill, no matter how virtuous you are, you'll become a wanton woman, eagerly seeking my company!"

Zhao Yu's face turned pale, and she shouted, "Scum! You're worse than a pig or a dog, I'd rather die than let you succeed!"

Before she could finish, Xu Jing pinched her cheeks and laughed, "Want to bite your tongue? Not that easy, such a top-notch beauty, I'll enjoy her slowly!"

Despair filled Zhao Yu's eyes, and two crystal tears rolled down her cheeks. Xu Jing became even more excited, took out a Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill, and inhaled its fragrance, exhaling with satisfaction. He leered, "Zhao Yu, after you experience the ultimate pleasure, you might willingly become my woman!"

Zhao Yu struggled desperately, but her spiritual power was sealed, and she was no match for Xu Jing. He forced the Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill into her mouth and tried to make her swallow it. Suddenly, he felt a strong wind behind him and instinctively ducked. A stone grazed his scalp and hit a nearby tree. Xu Jing, startled, released Zhao Yu's cheeks and turned around, raising his palm. A large fist quickly grew in front of his eyes.

*Boom!*

The sound of a broken nose echoed, and Xu Jing screamed in pain, blood and tears streaming down his face. Before he could figure out what happened, he was hit on the temple, causing dizziness and blurred vision. Zhao Yu took the opportunity to spit out the Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill and quickly rolled to the side.

Chu Jun, with red eyes, sat on Xu Jing, raining punches on his forehead. He continued until Xu Jing's face was a bloody mess, his skull caved in, before he staggered to his feet. Zhao Yu, with tear-streaked cheeks, looked at the unsteady Chu Jun in surprise. Blood and white mucus dripped from his fists, and a cultivator at the Spirit Formation stage had been killed by his bare hands.

"Are you okay?" Chu Jun weakly said four words before falling backward.

"Chu Jun!" Zhao Yu called out, quickly crawling over to him. She felt his pulse and found it still weakly beating, tears welling up in her eyes.

Zhao Yu struggled to stand, leaning on a tree. Just as she was about to send a distress signal, a burning sensation spread from her chest, and she involuntarily let out a soft, seductive moan, her face turning bright red.

The Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill was potent. Although Zhao Yu hadn't swallowed it, a small amount had seeped into her body while it was in her mouth. Now, the drug was taking effect.

Zhao Yu touched her cheeks, feeling a burning heat, and a wave of uncontrollable desire rose from her heart. Various shameful scenes involuntarily appeared in her mind. She bit her tongue hard, regaining some clarity, and desperately tried to find water. However, she stumbled and fell onto Chu Jun.

Chu Jun's male scent seemed to have a strange magic, and Zhao Yu felt unable to resist, unwilling to get up. Her heart pounded, her cheeks flushed, her lips slightly parted, and her eyes glistened with moisture. She looked at Chu Jun's face, finding him increasingly appealing, and couldn't resist puckering her lips and leaning in.

At that moment, the sound of cranes and shouts came from a distance, and Zhao Yu suddenly snapped out of her lust. Realizing she was intimately lying on Chu Jun's chest, she quickly jumped up, covering her burning face in embarrassment.

After a while, Zhao Yu recovered from her embarrassment. The Five Lusts Extreme Joy Pill had not been fully ingested, and its effects were gradually dissipating.

The crane calls grew louder, and they could clearly hear someone shouting Chu Jun's name. Zhao Yu quickly tidied her clothes, walked to the Fire Ape King's corpse, and pulled out her flying sword. She also retrieved the treasure pouch from Xu Jing's body.

Holding her long sword, Zhao Yu, with a cold expression, severed Xu Jing's dirty hands and stabbed his corpse several times, feeling a sense of relief. If not for Chu Jun, she would have died in humiliation today. Thinking of this, her body trembled with fear.

At that moment, four gray cranes appeared overhead, and the brothers Zhang Meng and Zhang Biao shouted Chu Jun's name. Zhao Yu quickly took out a bottle of corpse-dissolving powder and sprinkled it on Xu Jing's wounds, turning the body into a pile of blood and water. Xu Jing was no small figure, and Zhao Yu didn't want to leave a huge trouble behind.

"From the fire, it might be a second-level fire-type spirit beast. Chu Jun probably didn't survive!" The young man in a blue robe looked down from the gray crane, shouting.

The red-robed girl's face changed, "Let's go, a second-level spirit beast is not an easy opponent for us!"

In Ning Yun's view, Chu Jun was just a casual acquaintance, not worth risking their lives for.

"Is it Lin Ping and Ning Yun?" Zhao Yu's weak voice came from below.

The young man in blue was delighted, "It's Senior Sister Zhao Yu!" Without waiting for Ning Yun, he descended.

Ning Yun pursed her lips and controlled the gray crane to land in a clearing, and Zhang Meng and Zhang Biao followed.

Seeing the chaotic surroundings and the numerous spirit beast corpses, Lin Ping and the others were stunned. Zhang Meng and Zhang Biao looked at Zhao Yu with deep respect. Ning Yun was shocked, "Zhao Yu, did you kill all these spirit beasts? Including a second-level Fire Ape King!"

The young man in blue, Lin Ping, asked with concern, "Senior Sister Zhao, how are you injured?"

Zhao Yu weakly shook her head, "I'm fine, let's see how he is."

Everyone followed Zhao Yu's gaze and saw Chu Jun. Zhang Meng and Zhang Biao exclaimed, "Chu Jun!"

Lin Ping hurriedly ran over, lifted Chu Jun, and felt his pulse, then said, "He's not dead, but his pulse and breathing are very weak. His internal injuries are severe, and it's unlikely he'll survive!"

"Whatever it takes, we must save him!" Zhao Yu said firmly.

Lin Ping was taken aback but nodded, "Senior Sister Zhao, rest assured, I will do my best!"

Two days later, three gray cranes appeared in the sky above the forest. Each crane carried a man in a fiery red cloak, with a burning flame embroidered on the back, very eye-catching. The man in the center was about twenty years old, with thick, cold eyebrows and a stern expression, staring at a shattered jade bead in his palm.

This bead was called a Life-Linked Bead, sealed with the essence blood of its owner. If the owner died, the bead would shatter. Core disciples of major sects had such a bead stored in their sects.

"It should be nearby, let's go down and check!" The stern man said coldly.

The three men landed in the forest and carefully searched. The traces of the trees burned by the Fire Ape King were still visible. The stern man's gaze fell on a patch of dead grass, which stood out. His expression suddenly turned extremely cruel. He squatted down, dug up a handful of soil, and sniffed it. His aura burst forth, and the two men behind him stepped back in shock.

"Who was Xu Jing chasing that night?" The stern man's voice was cold as iron.

The two men behind him replied solemnly, "It was Zhao Yu from Zhengtian Gate. That night, we saw the Dragon God Light burst, and a treasure flew out, but Zhao Yu got to it first. Second Master fought with Zhao Yu and lost. He was不服气 and chased her, but it was too dark, and we lost her!"

The stern man's right hand waved, and a flame shot out from his palm, slicing through a tree like a blade, leaving a smoking cut.

"Zhao Yu!" The stern man clenched his fists, his eyes filled with deep hatred.
