Chen Yang, realizing Chen Jing was in danger, returned to help. He distracted the Fireflame Demon King with a blow, then quickly rescued Chen Jing and fled with her. The Demon King, enraged, gave chase, but Chen Yang's superior speed allowed them to escape into the deeper parts of the Ferocious Beast Forest.

But it’s different between big demons.

There is inherently a certain rivalry between them.

Now that a big demon has invaded their territory, their reaction is naturally intense.

It was a late-stage Condensation gorilla.

Seeing the Fiery Flame Demon King bulldozing his way into his territory, he was furious.

With a roar, he blocked Fiery Flame Demon King’s path.

"Fire Serpent! What do you mean by invading my territory? Do you want to start a war?" The gorilla roared.

"Get out of the way, don’t block me from chasing someone." Fiery Flame Demon King’s eyes were already red.

He didn’t care who the other party was.

He only knew that at this moment he wanted to catch up with Chen Yang and reclaim his Earth Rock Fire.

As he roared, he swept his tail at the gorilla.

The gorilla wasn’t easy to deal with either, and faced with Fiery Flame Demon King’s sudden attack, he directly regarded it as an invasion, ignoring what Fiery Flame Demon King said.

He swung his big fists and began to fight fiercely.

The gorilla was also in late-stage Condensation, and so was Fiery Flame Demon King.

These two demon beasts fighting meant they couldn’t separate quickly, giving Chen Yang plenty of time to escape.

Chen Yang took Chen Jing and quickly skimmed past.

After running four to five miles, they stopped in a mountain.

"Alright, that guy definitely can’t catch up now." Chen Yang said in relief as he landed.

"If he can’t catch up, why don’t you let go of my hand?"

A voice of annoyance came from Chen Jing beside him.

"Oh oh, I forgot." Chen Yang awkwardly smiled and quickly released Chen Jing’s hand.

Chen Jing pouted with an unhappy expression.

"Why so strong? You nearly squeezed my hand red." She rubbed the place Chen Yang held with her other hand.

"Haha, Senior Sister Chen, sorry, I was a bit nervous." Chen Yang laughed awkwardly, explaining.

Then he took off the mask on his face.

"Forget it, forget it; it’s not a big deal. Plus, you helped me out." Chen Jing waved her hand, saying.

After carefully looking Chen Yang up and down, she stared at him, puzzled and asked, "By the way, how did your Realm improve so fast?"

"Why did you sneak into the cave and steal the Earth Rock Fire? You better give me a reasonable explanation."

"I went to great lengths to deal with Fiery Flame Demon King."

Chen Jing became a bit angry mentioning the Earth Rock Fire.

Because she felt that to tackle Fiery Flame Demon King, she put in a great effort, but Chen Yang managed to outpace her silently, which naturally upset her.

"Senior Sister Chen, shouldn’t you know about my Realm?" Chen Yang answered with a smile.

"My Realm? How would I know how you improved so fast?" Chen Jing replied.

"It’s been widespread gossip in the academy lately, Senior Sister Chen Jin, you’re so smart, how could you not think of it?" Chen Yang flattered.

Upon hearing Chen Yang’s words, predictably, Chen Jing’s angry expression disappeared.

She was now cheerful.

After thinking carefully, she finally understood: "Could it be that you obtained some inheritance in Huoyang True Monarch Palace, that’s why you improved so fast?"

"That’s why you’re so smart." Chen Yang immediately gave a thumbs up.

"Hehe, naturally, who am I?" Chen Jing was very pleased, and after just a few words from Chen Yang, she was happily listening.

Completely forgetting about Fiery Flame Demon King’s issue.

But Chen Yang definitely needed to explain proactively: "As for the Earth Rock Fire, I took it because it’s useful, so I got ahead, really sorry Senior Sister Chen."

"Hmph, you’re really sneaky, tell me, have you been following us all along?" Chen Jing said with a soft hum.

"No, Senior Sister, I just encountered you here..." Chen Yang described the situation.

Of course, he didn’t mention the old beggar.

Instead, he described how he originally came to the forest to find the flame, and during his search, he happened upon the confrontation between Chen Jing and Fiery Flame Demon King, seizing the chance to grab the Earth Rock Fire first.

After listening, Chen Jing had a slight understanding.

"So that’s how it is." Chen Jing nodded.

Yes.

Chen Yang also nodded, and then didn’t intend to say more.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jing stretched out her delicate hand, as if asking Chen Yang for something.

Chen Yang was stunned and asked puzzledly, "Senior Sister Chen, what are you doing?"

"Doing what? Of course, asking for some benefits. I worked so hard to delay, giving you the chance to get the Earth Rock Fire, you should thank me." Chen Jing said naturally.

Pfft.

Hearing this, Chen Yang laughed out loud.

Chen Jing’s personality was indeed unique.

She was completely opposite to her cousin Yang Qingwan.

"What do you want?" Chen Yang asked, unable to hold back his amusement, but he planned to agree to Chen Jing’s small request, as long as it wasn’t excessive.

After all, she did help him.

Without her delaying Fiery Flame Demon King, he wouldn’t have easily obtained the Earth Rock Fire.

"Hmm..." Seeing Chen Yang agree, Chen Jing immediately began to ponder seriously.

After thinking for quite a while, she opened her mouth and asked, "You can solidify Elixir with the Earth Rock Fire, right?"

Chen Yang was a little stunned by her words, then nodded: "I can manage a bit."

"That’s good, I helped Yang Feng because he promised to solidify an elixir for me."

"Since you can concoct elixirs, you can do it for me as a thank you."

Chen Jing immediately replied.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang quickly asked, "I can solidify elixirs, but I’m just a novice. You still have to tell me what kind of elixir you want solidified."

"My elixir is very simple, just third-grade." Chen Jing said casually.

Pfft.

Hearing this, Chen Yang almost burst out laughing.

What do you mean just third-grade?

He hadn’t even concocted a proper first-grade elixir yet.

And she’s asking for third-grade?

This is a clear challenge.

"What is it? Is it difficult? Can’t be that you aren’t even as good as Yang Feng?" Chen Jing saw Chen Yang’s strange expression and immediately looked surprised, saying.

Naturally, Chen Yang was displeased upon hearing this.

"Senior Sister Chen, are you mistaken? Yang Feng is the disciple of Elder Gu, and I’m just a self-taught novice, how can we be compared?" Chen Yang said.

"Hmm... But I think you’re quite impressive, only here for a few months and your cultivation already surpassed mine, I believe your alchemy skills are too." Saying this, Chen Jing walked to Chen Yang’s side and patted his shoulder like a senior talking to a junior: "Come on, have confidence, I trust you, what are you afraid of?"

Awesome.

Really awesome.

Chen Yang smiled wryly, unable to think of any other adjective for Chen Jing besides awesome.

"Alright, let’s settle it. Anyway, you have to solidify this Elixir for me; take your time, I’m not in a rush now," she said, and took out a prescription from her storage space, tossing it to Chen Yang.

"Here’s the recipe, study it well. Come find me when you’ve solidified it, and there will be a great reward."

After saying this, Chen Jing playfully winked at Chen Yang and then soared into the sky, leaving.
