February 9, 2013
Seeing Chu Yun’s stunned expression, the Riot Ape King roared with laughter. “Little brother, you have a good tolerance for alcohol. Come, let me show you the beauties of my tribe. Look at their dark, shiny fur, their soft tails, their tender muscles… Hmph! Aren’t they beautiful?”
Chu Yun’s impressive drinking capacity earned his admiration, and the Riot Ape King’s address shifted from “kid” to “little brother.”
“Beautiful!!!” Before Chu Yun could respond, a group of Spirit Monster-level Riot Apes let out earth-shattering roars. Their eyes, fixed on the female primates in the arena, gleamed with desire, and some even drooled.
“They are indeed very beautiful,” Chu Yun said, wiping the cold sweat from his brow.
“Hehehe…” The Riot Ape King chuckled meaningfully. “What’s the fun in just the two of us drinking? It’s better to share the joy. Someone, serve wine to everyone!”
“Thank you, Great King!” The female primates, already salivating, shouted in unison.
“This…” In contrast, the Nine Colored Deer and other Tribulation Demons, upon seeing the Heart Moving Wine being served, seemed to recall some painful lesson. Their faces turned grim and peculiar.
“Little brother, sit by me. Let’s have another drinking match!” the Ape King roared with excitement.
“Alright!” Chu Yun, showing no fear, strode forward and sat in the seat closest to the Riot Ape King.
The tenth, eleventh, and twelfth坛!
They drank three more坛, leaving the Riot Ape King with a flushed face, a reeling head, and blurry eyes, only a sliver of lucidity remaining.
Chu Yun was also brimming with alcohol, feeling dizzy and lightheaded. At this point, his soul had grown immeasurably, but he had also reached his limit. His tolerance was so high that further drinking would yield only negligible growth.
Both sides were desperately holding on, relying on sheer willpower to see who would collapse first.
“How is this kid not down yet? Impossible. I even brought out all the beauties of my tribe to distract him, yet he’s unmoved. Is this kid’s heart made of iron?” the Riot Ape King marveled inwardly, sensing Chu Yun’s terrifying strength.
“Little brother, take another look at my tribe’s beauties. Aren’t their dances beautiful?” The Ape King, unwilling to accept defeat, made a final, seductive effort.
Chu Yun had no interest in these black-furred female monkeys. He gave them a cursory glance out of politeness. His vision was hazy, his head spinning.
However, upon looking again, he was greatly alarmed.
In his eyes, the female primates gradually transformed into familiar figures.
Among them were Hua Mei, Yi Yan, Little Fly Yan, and Hongshang Fairy. Leading them was none other than Jin Bihan!
She had shed her male attire and was now wearing a revealing dance costume, her snow-white skin exposed. As she performed a seductive dance, her eyes were incredibly alluring, and Chu Yun felt his soul stir.
“Hehehe, Heart Moving Wine, Heart Moving Wine. You’re moved, kid, you’ve fallen for my trap, hahaha! Once the heart moves and desire arises, the wine’s potency will double. I’ve won this drinking match for sure!” the Riot Ape King gloated inwardly.
The Heart Moving Wine could enhance the soul and stimulate desires, igniting the most hidden passions in one’s heart. Chu Yun had consumed an outrageous amount of alcohol. Even the slightest hint of desire, normally manageable, was now magnified infinitely.
“This is bad! Young Master has also fallen into the trap!”
“This Heart Moving Wine is also called Lust-Invoking Wine. It’s over, it’s over. Young Master is going to follow in our footsteps.”
“Those damned primates have wicked intentions! They can’t win by drinking, so they resort to trickery!”
The Tribulation Demons, witnessing Chu Yun’s hazy eyes, gasped in unison and sighed. They recalled their own shameful pasts, their faces a mixture of regret, remorse, hatred, and pity.
“The night is long, and I have no desire for sleep. Little brother, why not pick one and spend a pleasant night together?” the Riot Ape King slowly proposed.
“Pick one?” Chu Yun’s mind was a chaotic mess. He focused his gaze and pondered, “…Should I choose the graceful and mature Hua Mei, or the elegant Yi Yan, or the lively and adorable Little Fly Yan? Hongshang Fairy is fiery and beautiful, which is also appealing. Jin Brother’s beauty is celestial; spending a night with him would surely be a sublime experience…”
“Wait! What’s going on?! Why am I thinking this? Jin Brother is also a man, what am I thinking?”
Suddenly, Chu Yun was horrified.
His increasingly blurry vision snapped back to clarity.
This realization struck him deeply.
Cold sweat broke out all over his body as he understood the Riot Ape King’s scheme.
He looked again and saw only black-furred female monkeys leaping about. He shuddered, recalling how close he had come to agreeing to the Ape King’s offer and choosing one of them.
Chu Yun was filled with fear and immense relief. “Whew, Jin Brother, you helped me out a lot. You turned the tide at the most critical moment. But why were you the first one leading the dance?”
“Could it be that I am…” A sudden chill ran down Chu Yun’s spine, and a terrible premonition washed over him. He immediately suppressed the rampant thoughts, frightened by his own realization.
“Never mind. Such beauties are best left to you. I dare not covet them,” Chu Yun said, shaking his head and firmly refusing.
“Huh?! Young Master has actually regained his senses.”
“He overcame the lust in his heart! What incredible willpower!”
“Remarkable, truly remarkable. Back in my day… alas, the past is too painful to recall. It’s no wonder he is the first person in hundreds of thousands of years to receive this inheritance!”
The Tribulation Demons exclaimed in astonishment and admiration. Chu Yun’s refusal was nothing short of a miracle in their eyes, earning their sincere respect.
“You are not tempted by beauty!” the Riot Ape King exclaimed incredulously, staring at Chu Yun as if he were a monster.
“This is nothing. Let’s drink more!” Chu Yun, seeing through the trick, pressed his advantage.
The thirteenth坛!
Chu Yun was dizzy, but the Riot Ape King was even worse, his tongue twisted, and his speech slurred.
The fourteenth坛!
The Riot Ape King swayed precariously, and Chu Yun almost collapsed. Mustering all his strength, he took out the Lishan Dragon Eye Flower Branch, and with trembling hands, plucked a Dragon Eye Fruit and ate it.
The Dragon Eye Fruit, upon entering his stomach, transformed into a warm current that flowed through his entire body, enhancing his physical condition.
This fruit, cultivated from a Dragon Eye he had obtained from the Stone Ruins, was his first time consuming it, yielding a significant effect. Chu Yun suddenly felt a surge of clarity, like a cool, clear stream flowing into his overheated mind.
“Dragon Eye Fruit!” The Riot Ape King, seeing the fruit-laden branch, widened his eyes in shock. His will to prolong the competition completely dissipated.
“Hahaha, I lost. You are indeed formidable. Take this scroll. It contains the insights of the Ten Thousand Beasts King, our former master.” The Ape King, accepting his loss, immediately tossed a scroll. He then roared, “Listen up, my subordinates! From this day forward, this young brother is my friend. You will treat him as you treat me.”
“Yes! We obey Great King! We obey Second Great King!” the monkey horde chanted in unison.
Chu Yun, inexplicably, had become the second-in-command of the monkey tribe.
“Incredible, incredible!”
“He actually won. That’s the former master’s scroll. If Young Master learns it, he can make us submit!”
The Tribulation Demons were all excited, looking at each other and moved to tears.
“Bring forth the women we recently captured, so we may amuse ourselves,” the Riot Ape King ordered.
Immediately, subordinates brought forward a group of women.
“These human women, though somewhat plain, will have to suffice for you. Each of you pick one to toy with!” the Ape King called out.
“Wait!”
“All of you, stop!”
Hua Mei and Yi Yan’s faces turned cold as they stood up abruptly. “You cannot do this!”
“Sect Master! Young Master Chu Yun!” Among the women were members of the Rouge Gate. Seeing Chu Yun and Hua Mei, they saw a glimmer of hope in their despair.
“Young Master Chu Yun, save us.”
“Sect Master, we were captured by a group of Spirit Monster primates just as we were about to return. Most of the sisters have been captured.”
The members of the Rouge Gate sobbed.
“How could this happen? Ape King, these people are my friends, release them all,” Chu Yun ordered sternly.
“We cannot release them, Great King! We worked hard to capture them, how can we just let them go?” the Spirit Monster monkeys cried out.
“These are just some ugly women. Since I’ve already promised my subordinates, I cannot go back on my word. Friend, as compensation, I will give you some of my women. These are great beauties of my tribe,” the Ape King said slowly.
“No! I absolutely will not allow my friends to suffer such harm,” Chu Yun stated resolutely, waving his hand.
“Are all these women your wives? A friend’s wife is not to be trifled with. If they are all your wives, we will say no more, and instead, we will apologize to you. But if not, then forgive us for our disobedience!” the Ape King roared, his breath reeking of alcohol.
“You…” Chu Yun was about to retaliate.
“That’s right. All of us in the Rouge Gate are the wives of Young Master Chu Yun,” Hua Mei suddenly declared.
“Sect Leader Hua…” Chu Yun turned his head and saw Yi Yan subtly shake her head. He suddenly understood; this was the only way to save them. Facing the alcohol-laden Ape King, he couldn’t reason with him and could only play along.
“That’s right. I am now confessing to you, these women are all my wives,” Chu Yun nodded.
“They are all your wives, brother?” the Ape King’s mouth hung open in surprise. After a long pause, he blurted out, “It’s not that I’m saying this, brother, but your taste is a bit too… unconventional?!”
