Saintess Qingyi bit her lip, a flash of shame and indignation passing through her eyes. "Those two demonic scum... before they chased me, they gave me... gave me..."
She could not go on. Her face was so red it seemed ready to drip blood.

Those two demonic cultivators had pursued Saintess Qingyi not merely to kill her, but to violate her as well.
They had given her a potent aphrodisiac, intending for its effects to strip her of the ability to resist so she would be at their mercy.

"Chen Shan, I... I want you..." She staggered toward Chen Changming and
