Chapter 32: Towering Rage

"Stop!!!"

Just then, a loud shout rang out. A cold and stern young man of about twenty-five or twenty-six, with resolute facial features, strode in.

The woman in the long black cloak stopped her hand and turned her head to look.

"Senior Brother Lu Jun!" the woman in the long black cloak exclaimed.

"What are you doing?" the cold and stern young man named Lu Jun demanded.

"Senior Brother Lu Jun, Junior Sister Ziying came to befriend Shi Muyao. As a result, this slut Shi Muyao directly and severely injured Junior Sister Ziying. We came to reason with her, and she even struck first," the woman in the long black cloak said.

"That’s right. This slut really thinks she can do whatever she wants just because she’s an honorary disciple of the Sect Leader," another woman in brown echoed.

"Exactly. Our actions are completely within the sect rules. If we were weak, we’d probably end up just like Junior Sister Ziying," another woman in a white skirt added.

Lu Jun glanced at Shi Muyao, then at the female disciple huddled in the corner. "That’s enough," he scolded. "Are you trying to kill her? Hurry up and take Lian Ziying to heal her injuries!"

The three hesitated. "What is it?" Lu Jun’s voice darkened.

The woman in the long black cloak looked at Shi Muyao and said, "For Senior Brother Lu Jun’s sake, we’ll let you off this time. If you dare retaliate against Junior Sister Ziying, we definitely won’t spare you! Let’s go!"

With that, the woman in the long black cloak released Shi Muyao and strode over to the female disciple in the corner. The other two followed. They supported the injured female disciple and quickly left the courtyard.

"SOB..." Shi Muyao wept uncontrollably.

Lu Jun stepped forward, helped Shi Muyao up, and took out a bottle of Spirit Liquid. "This is a First-Grade Upper-Level Healing Spirit Liquid. Quickly apply it to your wounds, and you’ll still have a chance to recover. If you wait any longer, it might be very difficult to heal."

Hearing this, Shi Muyao trembled, looking at Lu Jun in astonishment.

"Although the Yuling Sect has a majority of female disciples, the Sect Leader advocates for fair competition, so it’s very cruel. As long as it’s within the rules, the Sect Leader won’t show favoritism, even for a Sect Leader’s Direct Disciple," Lu Jun said indifferently.

"Why are you helping me? I... I have a husband! My husband is Mo Qianqian!" Shi Muyao said, somewhat panicked. Because of the previous incident with Wu Yubai and this matter with Lian Ziying, she had become very wary of anyone offering help within the Yuling Sect.

"Your situation with Mo Qianqian is known throughout the entire Yuling Sect. Not everyone is like Wu Yubai!" Lu Jun said. "Those people just now were up to no good. I happened to see it and stepped in to stop them. It was just a minor effort—it’s not about whether I wanted to help you or not.

"As for this Healing Spirit Liquid, it’s not a free gift. The market price is three Upper-Level Vein Tempering Pills. Once you’ve recovered, just pay me back with four later."

Hearing this, Shi Muyao finally understood. The other party wasn’t giving her the medicine for free. He just wanted to earn an extra pill. However, at a time like this, let alone four pills, even more would be worth it. Not to mention, he had also helped her. Asking for pills in exchange meant that he didn’t have any ulterior motives for helping her. He was right. Not everyone was like Wu Yubai.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu. In the future, I will definitely repay you with four pills." Shi Muyao took the Spirit Liquid, quickly opened it, and hastily applied it to her face.

This Healing Spirit Liquid was indeed a First-Grade Upper-Level Spirit Liquid. As soon as it was applied to her face, it quickly seeped into her flesh.

Seeing Shi Muyao apply the Spirit Liquid, the corners of Lu Jun’s mouth curled up into a smirk, and a peculiar light flashed in his eyes.

"Why do I feel like this Healing Spirit Liquid is scalding hot? My body feels so warm," Shi Muyao said.

"It’s supposed to be hot," Lu Jun replied. "This isn’t some Healing Spirit Liquid at all. Instead, it’s a potent aphrodisiac. Very soon, you’ll be burning with lust!"

"What?" Shi Muyao’s body trembled as she looked at Lu Jun in disbelief.

Lu Jun looked at Shi Muyao’s slender white arm, which was exposed through her torn sleeve, and chuckled. "You still have your Guardian Palace Gauze. It seems Mo Qianqian hasn’t had you yet. How lucky for me."

"You..."

Shi Muyao was thoroughly panicked. She never expected everyone in the Yuling Sect to be this evil. Lu Jun, who had just saved her, hadn’t given her the Spirit Liquid in exchange for pills. He never really wanted to help her. Instead, he had wicked intentions!

Shi Muyao threw the Healing Spirit Liquid at Lu Jun, hastily got up, and dashed outside with all her might.

"Help!" Shi Muyao screamed at the top of her lungs.

THUD!

However, at that moment, Lu Jun directly swept Shi Muyao to the ground with a kick.

"This is called the Foolish Love Medicine. Not only does it fill a person with lust, but it also causes idiocy afterward. After today, you’ll turn into a fool. No one will know what happened, and the Sect Leader won’t investigate this matter for a piece of trash," Lu Jun said with a laugh, taking large strides toward Shi Muyao.

"No..." Shi Muyao’s face was filled with despair. At this moment, she spat out another mouthful of blood. Her entire body felt weak and burning hot as primal lust began to surge within her. Even after trying with all her might, she couldn’t stand up anymore, and her hands were almost too weak to crawl.

"The more pathetic you look, the more I like it!" Lu Jun sneered, revealing a wicked, evil grin. He quickly took off his top and lunged fiercely at Shi Muyao.
