Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

Grandpa Yun... Grandpa Yun!!

Ren Yao, whose mouth was finally freed, looked excitedly at the person in front of her. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the young man's gesture and immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

Seeing how well-behaved the girl was, Yunping nodded in satisfaction, patted Ren Yao's head, and his dead fish eyes were filled with an unknown smile.

He turned his head and looked from a corner of the dense forest at Li Zhe and the others who were rushing in this direction, a slight smile playing on his lips.

The Demon Dynasty...

That's quite interesting.

If you want to see your apprentice, just bear with it a little longer. As a goofy person, I definitely have to step in at the crucial moment!

12. Sir, please don't be so flirtatious.

In the dense forest.

The slender girl was panting heavily as she struggled through the obstructive jungle. Although she was running out of energy, she dared not stop.

Because she knew that once she stopped, what awaited her would be an endless hell of suffering worse than death.

So she had to run, keep running.

She waded through dense thickets, leaped over fallen tree trunks, and searched for a path to survival with extremely low probability amidst the complex terrain. Even if there was only a one percent chance of survival, she had to take the risk!

Once you succeed, the world will suddenly open up before you.

However... Lady Luck was clearly not on her side.

"Hey, Junior Sister Ren."

Suddenly, four or five disciples of the Ranshan Sect appeared in front of her, forming a wide fan shape that completely blocked her way.

Ren Yao looked flustered and quickly turned around, trying to leave diagonally behind her.

clap clap-

The sound of explosions echoed, and the black light that flashed by was formed by a long whip. The long whip with sharp teeth, which had been enhanced by the demonic energy, could easily cut down all the trees that were blocking the view!

A deafening roar resounded, the earth trembled, and Ren Yao nearly fell to the ground, losing her footing.

It was at this moment that Lin Jing, wielding a dark purple whip, and Li Zhe, carrying a sharp sword and wearing bandages, led a group of outer disciples to block Ren Yao from behind.

In an instant, an oval-shaped enclosure surrounded and enveloped Ren Yao.

Li Zhe wore a nonchalant smile, his brows furrowed with disdain and contempt.

"Run! Why have you stopped running?"

Ren Yao looked around in a panic and realized that she was already surrounded by dozens of outer disciples of the Ranshan Sect. With her cultivation level, even if she chose the weakest spot to launch a fierce attack, she probably wouldn't be able to escape.

Were we outmaneuvered...?

Originally, only seven or eight outer disciples appeared in front of Ren Yao. In fact, Li Zhe had already guessed that Ren Yao might try to escape, so he had arranged many outer disciples in the dense forest in advance, so that he could completely block Ren Yao's way at this time.

There was no way to escape.

Realizing this, Ren Yao lowered her head helplessly, as if she had given up resisting.

"Junior Sister Ren—"

Lin Jing gripped the long whip in her hand, letting the demonic energy swirl around her.

She gazed at Ren Yao, who had nowhere to escape, with a hint of reluctance. After a few seconds of silence, she spoke up to persuade her, "Go back with your senior sister. Senior Brother Qin Guang... will treat you well."

Ren Yao raised her head and looked at Lin Jing with a complicated expression: "Senior sister... don't you know what kind of person Qin Guang is...?"

Lin Jing did not reply.

She was one of the people Qin Guang harassed within the inner sect, and she deeply loathed people like Qin Guang who treated female cultivators merely as objects for dual cultivation and tools for sexual gratification.

That's utter scum.

But... she now has no other choice.

"Junior Sister Ren, just accept it." She advised again, a hint of pain in her eyes: "There's no other choice..."

"Senior Sister Jing..."

Ren Yao could tell that Lin Jing was being forced.

It's likely that she was threatened by Qin Guang, or perhaps by the Demon Dynasty; otherwise, given Lin Jing's character, she certainly wouldn't have willingly gone with Qin Guang...

Ren Yao took a deep breath, but before she could reply—

Why waste so much breath talking to her?

Li Zhe strolled out from the side with leisurely steps, his gaze, filled with lust, remaining fixed on Ren Yao the entire time.

From every angle, Ren Yao can be considered a beauty, but she lacks the charm of a mature woman and has more of the naivety of a young girl. Although her breasts are not full, they are still quite shapely.

Li Zhe rubbed his chin, walked up to Ren Yao, and chuckled wickedly.

"Junior Sister Ren, just accept it. Even if our Senior Brother Qin has many women, he will at least not mistreat you. As long as you serve him well, you will definitely get benefits."

"But before that—"

His lewd gaze swept over Ren Yao's body. Li Zhe reached out his restless hand, first pressing down on Ren Yao's shoulder, and then slowly stroking down her fair and smooth arm.

Feeling the girl's flawless skin, Li Zhe couldn't help but grin. Under Ren Yao's astonished gaze, he licked his lips, as if he had been waiting for this moment: "Your service skills might still need some practice. Before sending you to Senior Brother Qin, let us teach you how to serve him first~"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing's face turned pale with shock.

A flash of anger crossed her eyes as she stared at Li Zhe: "Li Zhe, I'm warning you, don't do that kind of thing to Ren Yao!"

"Warning me?"

A flash of anger crossed Li Zhe's face. He turned around and slapped Lin Jing across the face.

Snapped!

The crisp sound echoed through the dense forest.

Lin Jing's hair fell loose, and she gritted her teeth, just about to retaliate, when she met Li Zhe's sinister eyes.

Li Zhe gripped Lin Jing's chin with one hand and stared at her coldly: "Get your stance straight, Lin Jing... you're nothing but Qin Guang's dog, don't think too highly of yourself!"

"Li Zhe, you...!"

"What do you mean, 'you'?! Did I give you permission to speak?"

He slapped Lin Jing across the face again with his other hand.

This time, Lin Jing didn't speak, but silently endured it, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.

A glistening liquid, resembling tears, slid down her flushed cheeks from mid-air.

Seeing that Lin Jing no longer resisted or uttered any words, Li Zhe pursed his lips in annoyance and cursed, "What a damn bad luck! These past two days, one after another has been getting on my nerves. First it was that relative of the Ren family, and now it's you, Lin Jing. It's really driving me crazy."

He reached up and touched his right cheek, which was still throbbing with pain. Recalling the scene of the young man slapping him across the face, he was filled with hatred and wished he could shove the young man's head into the ground right now.

But now—

He turned to the trembling Ren Yao, and his mood improved somewhat.

"Let Junior Sister Ren cool down this anger in my heart~"

With an enigmatic smirk, Li Zhe slowly approached Ren Yao, adding, "You should know what will happen if you resist, right, Junior Sister Ren..."

Ren Yao's eyes widened, and she suddenly revealed a look of horror.

Her instinctive move to draw her sword froze in mid-air. After a few seconds of silence, she seemed to resign herself to her fate, and her hands fell limply to her sides.

Seeing Ren Yao so readily available, Li Zhe's desire burned even more fiercely. His restless hand instantly landed on Ren Yao's delicate shoulders, stroking downwards.

He flipped over her snow-white neck, leaped over her alluring collarbone, and slowly and carefully moved toward the slightly protruding peaks on Ren Yao's chest...

"Wait a minute!"

Suddenly, Ren Yao spoke up.

Li Zhe's hand paused, his brows furrowed, and he stared at Ren Yao with a cold and unfriendly gaze: "Junior Sister Ren, what is this...?"

Before Li Zhe could finish speaking, Ren Yao ripped open her clothes at the shoulder, completely exposing her delicate pink shoulders to everyone's view, and at the same time, revealing her alluring collarbone as well.

Ren Yao gracefully tossed her hair, lightly bit her lower lip, and gave Li Zhe a charming wink. She then raised her slender, beautiful leg and pressed it against Li Zhe's thigh.

"If we're going to play, let's play big!"

"Grandpa~ Come on~ Have some fun~ You have so much time to spare..."

……

This sudden display of flirtatiousness almost left Li Zhe completely stunned.

Do not--

It's not just Li Zhe.

Even a certain Ranshan Sect girl, whose cheeks were flushed red and who was hiding in the bushes behind Yunping, was terrified.

She couldn't help but cover her eyes, but still carefully opened them slightly, peeking out through her fingers.

Looking at Ren Yao's seductive pose outside, she felt her heart pound with shyness.

...I'm so sexy...

Wait, that's not right!

—Uncle Yun…you’re so flirtatious…

at the same time--

Lin Jing's blank gaze suddenly turned to shock after she noticed something, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "No... she's not Junior Sister Ren!"

She noticed that the gold ring that Ren Yao had been wearing on her right hand was no longer there!

The "Ren Yao" of this moment is different from the Ren Yao of the past...

It's not the same person at all!

"what?!"

Li Zhe was startled upon hearing this and was about to turn away when "Ren Yao's" little hand had already wrapped around his neck.
