Madam, don't do this!

Chapter 120 Can You Hold Me? (1)

It was soft and fluffy, and had a subtle temperature.

The person next to him tensed up instantly.

In the darkness, Song Yan's expression was slightly stiff. It was ultimately inconvenient to sleep in the same bed with a woman who wasn't even his yet. It wasn't the madness and passivity in the cave, nor the gentleness and obedience of Gu Banxia.

The woman beside him was merely a transaction partner, a business partner.

They were even enemies not long ago.

This situation is somewhat awkward.

Of course, Song Yan knew that she was not exactly a gentleman, and it was impossible for her to be completely without any thoughts in her mind. After all, she was a woman who practiced seductive arts, and she was still very attractive to men.

Before, everything was normal, but lying on the same bed, feeling the warmth of her body so close, and smelling the pure fragrance emanating from the girl, it was inevitable that a slight ripple would stir in his heart. Although the Hundred Flowers Mirror could allow martial artists to control their desires, it was clear that Song Yan hadn't yet reached the point of being able to control them at will.

He roughly understood Yang Siyao's thoughts. If he made a move at this time, Yang Siyao would likely use her body to entangle him in a half-hearted manner, thus establishing a more solid relationship between the two of them.

However, even if it's half-hearted, it still has a somewhat coercive element to it.

Song Yan didn't like it.

Thinking this, I closed my eyes.

Although darkness enveloped him, his consciousness remained exceptionally clear.

There was no need to waste time. The contents of the Vajra Arhat Technique began to appear in his mind. After carefully reviewing the manual in his mind, Song Yan began to mobilize the internal energy in his body according to the records in the manual.

The not-so-powerful internal energy, under Song Yan's control, began to circulate through the body's meridians.

Soon, Song Yan realized the difference between the Vajra Arhat Technique and the body tempering medicine.

Drug tempering of the body seems to follow a fixed order, starting with the bones, then the skin, then the flesh, then the meridians, then the internal organs. After tempering all of them, if the toxins accumulated in the body have not yet reached the critical point, then start all over again. Tempering the body again and again, strengthening it again and again, makes the physical strength more and more terrifying.

It is said that some highly skilled martial artists can even temper their bodies to the point of being invulnerable to swords and spears.

During this process, some of the medicinal properties will dissipate, and other parts of the body will also be strengthened to some extent, but not as much as the main target.

The Vajra Arhat Kung Fu is the complete opposite.

The internal energy flowed evenly through the meridians, surging throughout the limbs and bones, into the internal organs, flesh, and bones. The tempering of the Vajra Arhat Technique was carried out simultaneously throughout the entire body, leaving no part untouched.

In that instant, Song Yan felt as if he were in a giant furnace, an indescribable heat radiating from within him, as if his blood was about to be evaporated.

In more modern terms, every cell seemed to be activated, pulsating, contracting, and consuming wherever the internal energy flowed.

The vitality of the body seemed to be activated to its maximum.

This period of time did not last long, perhaps only a dozen seconds, before Song Yan's internal energy was completely absorbed.

Completely drained, Song Yan suddenly felt an overwhelming fatigue.

Is this the Vajra Arhat Kung Fu?
Isn't this a bit too fast?
Sensing the changes in his physical body, he found that his overall strength had indeed increased, though the increase was less than he had imagined. Of course, this was likely related to the fact that his internal energy was not yet sufficiently robust. He analyzed the situation carefully in his mind. Compared to body tempering with medicine, both methods had their advantages and disadvantages, but in Song Yan's eyes, the Vajra Arhat Technique was superior.

Drug-based body tempering has the advantage of providing a huge boost with each tempering session, and it concentrates most of the drug's power to improve certain areas of the body, allowing for greater progress in a short period of time.

The Vajra Arhat Technique, at present, may not provide an improvement of even one-tenth of that from a single body tempering session compared to a single drug-based body tempering session.

It may not sound like much, but don't forget that there is an upper limit to the effects of drug-induced body tempering, and it takes at least seven days to temper the body once. Otherwise, the human body simply won't have enough time to digest the drug's effects, which will lead to the accumulation of additional toxins.

However, the Vajra Arhat Skill is different; it can be activated at any time as long as there is internal energy in the body.

Just like now, his internal energy has just been depleted, and new internal energy has begun to slowly regenerate within his body. Although the process is slow, Song Yan estimates that it will take at least two hours for his internal energy to recover to its optimal state. Calculating it this way, if he doesn't rest for a day, he can undergo six tempering sessions; even if he halve that, he'll still have three. Seven days is enough time for the Vajra Arhat Technique to temper his body twenty-one times, far exceeding the effects of medicinal body tempering.

Most importantly, there's no need to worry about toxicity.

Of course, the disadvantages are also quite obvious. After the Vajra Arhat Kung Fu tempers the body, one will be in a relatively weak state for a long time. If one encounters any sudden situation at this time, there may be danger.

Just as Song Yan was pondering this, Yang Siyao's body was trembling slightly on the inner side of the bed.

Although she had acquired a lot of theoretical knowledge while learning the art of seduction, she still couldn't help but feel a little flustered when she felt Song Yan lying down next to her.

She's still a girl after all.

When the most important moment of my life finally arrived, I still felt a little flustered.

She had considered what might happen next: Would Song Yan suddenly hug her from behind? Or would he pounce on her like a raging wild beast?
In any case, she probably doesn't have any resources to resist.

So, whatever, let nature take its course. Since the decision has already been made, there's no need to regret it.

She waited, but the man beside her made no move except for the back of his hand accidentally brushing against her buttocks. This made Yang Siyao very discouraged. She really had no feminine charm at all. Even lying next to Song Yan like this, she was too lazy to make a move. It was truly a tragedy for a woman.

It must be said that women are truly a rather strange kind of life.

But soon, Yang Siyao sensed something was wrong. A wave of heat emanated from behind her, giving her the illusion of being scorched by the sun. And that wasn't all; she also heard Song Yan's rapid breathing. At that moment, Yang Siyao felt relieved, and a slight smile even appeared on her lips.

She knew perfectly well that when a man felt that kind of urge, his body temperature would rise and his breathing would become rapid.

So it's not that Song Yan wasn't impulsive; he was just trying to control himself.

Unexpectedly, Song Yan was ruthless and cruel when he murdered Song Zhen and Yang Miaoqing, but he was actually a gentleman when it came to women. She knew that it was not easy for a man to control such impulses.

Perhaps a man like that is more reliable.

At least, he's not the kind of scoundrel who just plays around with things and then throws them away when he gets tired of them.

Thinking this way, the last trace of resistance in Yang Siyao's heart disappeared.

The cold moon hangs on the branches, and there is no sound of human voices in the surrounding fields.

On the bed, Yang Siyao gently twisted her delicate body, her soft, sweet voice breaking the silence of the night: "Can you hold me?"

In the darkness, Song Yan slowly opened her eyes.

Is this considered an invitation?

With a slight smile, Song Yan turned to the side, his long arm outstretched, and hooked around Yang Siyao's slender waist.

For a moment, Yang Siyao even had the illusion that something was pressing against her from behind, as if a furnace was burning. The intense heat seemed to carry an indescribable power, stirring up Yang Siyao's impulses, and her eyes gradually became hazy.

A ripple had stirred within his heart, which had always been as still as a well.

It's not just men who have impulses; women do too.

Moreover, she was a woman who had practiced seductive arts, but she usually controlled herself well. However, the scorching heat was like a raging fire that burned away all the shackles.

Desire, like a flood bursting its banks, consumed her will.

At that moment, Yang Siyao suddenly realized that perhaps when facing Song Yan, she never felt any resistance deep down; all she felt was girlish reserve.

She let out a long sigh, took Song Yan's hand, and slowly slid it upwards.
