Madam, don't do this!

Chapter 222 Hua Lianyue's Disciple (2)

Wind and snow.

Ruined temple.

A campfire.

Under the gaze of the eerie statue, the two figures were drawn together as if by magnets.

Her soft moans were alluring and captivating.

His heavy breathing sounded like the roar of a wild beast.

The firelight cast overlapping shadows on the ground, the shadows shifting and changing shape. Occasionally, a cold wind would blow, causing the shadows to sway violently.

Suddenly, amidst the swirling snow, a tiger's roar echoed through the mountains and forests. The sound was so deep and resonant, as if invisible sound waves were spreading outwards. Even the withered trees swayed in response, and white snowflakes fell softly and melted away.

At the same time, there was a melodious and long scream, like the song of a nightingale!
Cold? It didn't seem so cold anymore. The raging fire beside her was even making Song Yan feel her skin burning hot.

A fair-skinned body lay on top of her, seemingly still reeling from the recent stimulation, her body trembling slightly. Her long, black hair was damp with sweat, clinging to her face, neck, and rounded shoulders.

His fingers rested on her smooth back, feeling a slight shiver. A faint smile curved his lips. At this moment, age was completely irrelevant.

This time, the joy came somewhat abruptly.

Although Hua Lianyue was indeed very beautiful, Song Yan was initially somewhat resistant due to her age. However, for some reason, Song Yan felt that Hua Lianyue's attraction was becoming stronger and stronger, and in the end, he could not control himself.

Song Yan was unaware that the cold poison generated by the Extreme Yin Su Nu Jing was extremely terrifying.

In the early stages of cultivation, when one's strength is not strong, the frequency of cold poison outbreaks is extremely low, possibly only once a year. Moreover, even when cold poison does break out, its impact is extremely limited and can be easily suppressed.

However, as her cultivation level improved, the frequency of the cold poison outbreaks increased, and the pain caused by its erosion became more and more unbearable. For someone of Hua Lian Yue's strength, the cold poison would erupt almost every day, each outbreak causing her to suffer terribly. She had to mobilize all her internal energy and concentrate all her mental energy to fight against the effects of the cold poison.

Even if one abandons their internal energy, the cold poison will still remain, like a bone-deep infection that cannot be rid of.

Hua Lianyue had estimated that in another six months, she would probably be unable to withstand the cold poison.

Then, die.

The cold poison broke out as usual that night.

Hua Lian Yueye went to fight as usual, but Song Yan's presence was like a torch, drawing Hua Lian Yue's attention. Even though that torch seemed too dim compared to her strength, it was enough to drive her mad.

Attraction is mutual.

An eerie silence fell over the dilapidated temple.

It was probably a little awkward.

Song Yan cleared his throat, as if to say something, when he suddenly felt a powerful suction force seemingly appear out of nowhere within Hua Lian Yue's body, drawing him in and devouring him like a whirlpool. His inner energy, like a faucet turned on, could no longer be controlled and surged out, rushing wildly into Hua Lian Yue's body from where their bodies were in contact.

Song Yan's expression changed drastically.

He immediately focused his mind, trying to control the loss of his internal energy.

But, it's useless.

Its body turned into a deflated balloon, shrinking and shrunk at an alarming rate.

There was no time to react. In just a few breaths, Song Yan's internal energy was completely drained, leaving not a single trace.

The extreme emptiness made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Damn.

The internal strength I've painstakingly cultivated over such a long time.

Could it be that Hua Lianyue practices a martial art that replenishes yin by absorbing yang energy?
Otherwise, how could it have such an effect?

The moment that thought crossed his mind, another strange scene unfolded: the internal energy that Hua Lian Yue had just absorbed circulated through Hua Lian Yue's body before returning to Song Yan's body.

No, it's not as simple as just going back.

This internal force is more profound and powerful than before.

In the dim light, Song Yan could even feel a crackling sound, like glass shattering. The stagnant meridians were easily unblocked in the face of the powerful internal energy.

Even the martial artists' skill levels are improving rapidly.

He was newly appointed to the fourth rank.

Mid-stage fourth rank.

Late fourth rank.

Just as Song Yan was sensing his own power, the internal energy that surged into his body circulated once and then surged into Hua Lian Yue's body again... as if he had entered some kind of strange cycle.

Hua Lian Yue also noticed this abnormality. The little head that had been resting on Song Yan's chest gently lifted, her dark eyes filled with seductive charm. The circulation of her inner energy produced some indescribable stimulation on her body, and her already charming cheeks became increasingly red, while her breathing became more and more rapid.

Before long, the alluring voice echoed once again in the dilapidated temple.

……

Pleasant times always pass quickly.

Before I knew it, it was already dawn.

Despite not having slept a wink all night, Song Yan felt no fatigue whatsoever, and her energy was more abundant than ever before.

Hua Lianyue was sitting quietly to the side, meditating and regulating her breathing.

That posture certainly had the air of a female knight-errant. If she were wearing some clothes, she would look even more like one.

I feel like Hua Lianyue looks a little younger, but it's probably just my imagination. However, the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror is quite effective as an antidote. Although the chill on Hua Lianyue's body has not completely dissipated, it has indeed weakened considerably compared to before.

Song Yan pursed his lips, a hint of regret in his voice. Even after such a long and arduous period of training, he had almost been defeated by a grandmaster-level expert. Fortunately, he held on at the last moment, managing to maintain his dignity as a man.

To be honest, he was even a little worried at the beginning about whether he could break through Hua Lian Yue's defenses, after all, she was a Grandmaster.

Suppressing his chaotic thoughts, Song Yan slowly closed his eyes, sensing the changes in his body.

Fifth-rank martial artist.

In just one night, he reached a new level of understanding.

He had been tempering his physical body with the Vajra Arhat Technique, and when he broke through to the fifth rank of martial artist, he encountered no obstacles at all and broke through naturally.

Song Yan was somewhat terrified by this speed of progress. Although the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror was known for its fast cultivation speed, wasn't this a bit too exaggerated?

I have a feeling that this dual cultivation session with Hua Lianyue is comparable to the previous six months.

Is it because of Hua Lianyue's master-level cultivation?

Or is it a special martial art practiced by Hua Lianyue?
Or perhaps, the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror needs to be practiced in conjunction with Hua Lianyue's cultivation techniques to achieve its maximum effect?
Regardless, this is a good thing for Song Yan. A fifth-grade martial artist is considered a minor expert, and with his powerful physique, he might even be able to put up a fight against a sixth-grade martial artist.

Song Yan's only weakness right now is probably his moves and lightness skills.

Forget about the moves; they're too complicated, and he simply can't remember them.

We could try to find a lightness skill; it would be great if we could find one similar to the Lingbo Weibu (凌波微步).

call!
When he opened his eyes again, Hua Lianyue was still recuperating. He didn't care much and casually glanced around. The ground was mostly covered with strips of cloth and other things, which showed just how crazy things had just happened.

He picked out a few slightly larger pieces of cloth and made something that resembled an apron. Although the place was freezing cold and there was a heavy snowfall last night, so no one should come here, Song Yan still couldn't bring himself to run around naked.

I'm a little hungry.

He needs to find something to eat.

They are both highly skilled individuals; it would be too shameful for them to starve to death in a place like this.

Once outside, a biting wind swept over you, colder and sharper than usual.

As his inner energy circulated within his body, it couldn't completely dispel the chill, but it was at least not unbearable. Anchoring his position, Song Yan headed into the mountains and forests.

Just as Song Yan's figure disappeared, Hua Lianyue suddenly opened her eyes.

A pair of beautiful eyes, like black gemstones, revealed a hint of complexity.

Just as Song Yan guessed, the cold poison was not completely resolved, but it was indeed relieved quite a bit. She didn't have to worry about dying from the cold poison's corrosive effects for a short time.

Standing up, she inadvertently aggravated her wound, causing her some pain. She couldn't help but feel a little resentful; that guy had no sense of chivalry whatsoever. Even though she was a Grandmaster, such violent treatment would still cause her pain.

She lightly bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth. Some pieces of cloth on the ground were still scattered with specks of scarlet blood. After a brief hesitation, Hua Lianyue still picked up the pieces of cloth.

For a woman, the loss of menstrual blood ultimately holds special significance.

She sighed, feeling somewhat lost.

From now on, she will probably be inseparable from that young man.

The Extreme Yin Female Scripture will continuously generate cold toxins, and this cannot be changed. Only by constantly using the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror to neutralize it, and only after breaking through to the Grandmaster level, will the cold toxins completely disappear.

A grandmaster!

Once upon a time, how distant those words seemed.

But now it doesn't seem so ethereal anymore.

A night of pleasure caused the barrier that had been insurmountable for years to show signs of loosening.

Eh.

With a soft sigh, Hua Lianyue sat down again in the corner, her delicate brows furrowed.

She had no idea what to do next. Should she bring Song Yan into Chu? She'd probably be hated by Song Yan for the rest of her life, wouldn't she?

Although I only knew that young man for one day.

But for some reason, she didn't want Song Yan to hate her.

Staying in Ningguo is an option... but I'm getting a bit old, and that young man even called me "auntie" before.

Oh, and her disciples too.

Should we send a message to her and tell her to come over soon?

Although she should be considered her grandmaster in terms of seniority, the demoness of the Hehuan Sect ultimately doesn't care much about ethics and morality.

However, that girl probably won't come to Ning Kingdom. Even if she does enter Ning Kingdom, it's most likely she'll lead a large army to invade. After all, although she's a woman, she's a veritable general of Chu Kingdom, and she harbors an exaggerated hatred for Ning Kingdom.

Half a year ago, she captured two cities in Ningguo and forced Ningguo to sign a treaty of surrender. If you were to ask who Ningguo hates the most right now, that girl would definitely be on the list.

If Song Yan were to meet that girl, wouldn't they immediately start fighting?

Her master, caught in the middle, was having quite a headache.
