Boom!

A Strong Demon Ape, incredibly fierce, swung a massive punch directly at Jiang Huo'er.

Seeing the attack, Jiang Huo'er was startled. She tapped her tiptoe and quickly leaped up.

"Superpower, Fire Lotus."

Jiang Huo'er looked grim and uttered softly. Fire energy burst from within her, transforming into three exquisite flaming lotuses in front of her.

The three flaming lotuses floated in the air, slowly rotating, emitting terrifying heat.

"Go!"

Jiang Huo'er pointed her fingertip.

Swish, swish, swish!

The three Fire Lotuses, like streaks of light, shot swiftly toward the Strong Demon Ape's head, then exploded.

The left side of the Strong Demon Ape's head began to bleed, and one eye went blind.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"

The Strong Demon Ape seemed to go mad, letting out an incredibly angry roar.

Boom, boom!

The Strong Demon Ape swung its two giant fists continuously. Each punch caused the surrounding area of three to four meters to be enveloped in high-temperature flames and terrifying force.

Jiang Huo'er's pretty face turned pale, and she retreated repeatedly. Just as she was swiftly retreating, another Strong Demon Ape appeared behind her, ready to punch her.

At this moment, Jiang Huo'er's entire body stiffened. A sense of extreme danger surged, making her feel a fear of death.

If she were struck by this punch, she would be gravely injured if not killed.

"Wretched beast, perish!"

Slash!

Just then, accompanied by a fierce shout, a figure wielding a Flame Blade slashed violently at the fist of the Strong Demon Ape.

Thud!

The sharp Flame Blade, wrapped in flames, directly made a bloody gash in the enormous fist, penetrating deep into the bone.

The Strong Demon Ape let out a painful howl and retracted its hand.

Di Lie took the opportunity to advance swiftly, his Flame Blade glowing brightly, surrounded by flames, directly stabbing into the ape's throat, then withdrew, and a splash of brilliant blood followed.

The Strong Demon Ape collapsed with a thud.

However, by this time, sweat had also formed on Di Lie's forehead. The intense fighting had taken a considerable toll on her.

"Thank you for saving me, Senior Di Lie."

Jiang Huo'er quickly expressed her gratitude.

Di Lie shook her head and then joined another battle circle.

Jiang Huo'er dared not delay, as every second of hesitation might lead to a teammate's death.

With that, Jiang Huo'er transformed fire energy into two Fire Blades, and immediately charged at a Strong Demon Ape standing eight or nine meters tall.

However, despite her wanting to face only one Strong Demon Ape, their numbers were more than double theirs.

Quickly, another Strong Demon Ape moved toward Jiang Huo'er.

"Captain, I checked earlier. The Strong Demon Ape King led dozens of other Strong Demon Apes out of the valley to hunt other Demon Beasts. Why have all these apes returned so quickly?"

Jiang Huo'er looked grim, dealing with the siege of two Strong Demon Apes, and glanced aside, speaking to Thunder God.

At this moment, Thunder God's body was enveloped in lightning, arcs of electricity sparking and jumping across him, wielding a giant sword formed from Thunder Energy.

However, his condition wasn't great either.

Facing the onslaught of these Strong Demon Apes, even SS-Class Superpower Users like Di Lie and Leng Ning couldn't claim to be free from mortal peril.

"I don't know. These beasts cherish the Magic Fruits like treasures. They went crazy attacking us when we tried to pick them."

Thunder God frowned and said.

Boom!

The Strong Demon Ape fighting Thunder God swung its giant fist swiftly, shattering Thunder God's Thunder Shield.

"But there's one thing that doesn't make sense. All the Strong Demon Apes nearby have gathered here, as if being led by something."

Thunder God retreated, skimming the ground, with a grave expression.

Meanwhile, on this open ground, Huaxia's camp of Superpower Users and Ancient Martial Artists, along with an unknown girl in blue, fiercely battled dozens of Strong Demon Apes.

At a distant red-leafed tree, four figures stood side by side on a branch covered in red leaves, looking through them toward the intense battle below.

Watching the fierce fight on the ground, faint smiles appeared on the faces of the four, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

Among them, two wore bright red clothes, adorned with fluttering cranes.

These two were from the Chizuru Clan, Chizuru Gongyu, and the immensely powerful Celestial Ninja Chizuru Ayamai.

Chizuru Ayamai gazed at the battle circle, faint blood-red spirals appearing in her eyes, giving a bewitching and eerie look.

The other two wore blue Samurai Dao attire.

One was Aoki Masao, an heir of the Aoki Clan, while the other was the clan's Celestial Ninja, Aoki Hoshino.

On Aoki Hoshino's back was a long sword sheathed in White Jade.

"Miss Gongyu is truly cunning, predicting everything. After Huaxia's people fight these Strong Demon Apes, even if they don't die, they'll be exhausted, greatly weakened."

"Then, with a little effort from our clans, we can easily eliminate these Huaxia Ancient Martial Artists and Superpower Users here."

"Moreover, we'll gain dozens of Strong Demon Ape Crystal Cores and all the Magic Fruits here, a win-win."

Aoki Masao looked at Chizuru Gongyu admiringly.

Though he praised her verbally, a trace of fear flickered in his eyes.

"Masao-kun, you're too kind."

Chizuru Gongyu smiled at the corner of her mouth.

Huaxia and Japan have long been at odds. Although it is a time of peace, secret skirmishes between the mysterious forces of the two nations are common. If they can bury Huaxia Special Security Department's elite here, it would be a huge advantage for Japan.

"Miss Gongyu, there's just one thing we didn't anticipate. Who exactly is that girl in blue? According to the intelligence we received, she wasn't part of Huaxia's camp, and the others in Huaxia's team don't seem to recognize her either."

Aoki Masao squinted his eyes, watching the girl in blue fighting two Strong Demon Apes, and said.

"Without that girl in blue, these Huaxia people, facing such a siege of Strong Demon Apes, wouldn't last this long."

Aoki Masao said solemnly.

At this moment, Chizuru Gongyu narrowed her eyes slightly, observing the girl in blue for a while, and the light in her phoenix eyes grew increasingly brighter, while Chizuru Ayamai and Aoki Hoshino had similar expressions.
