"Who knows... I wonder if you're just as capable in other places." Hu Meier looked at Yang Kai with her deep, meaningful eyes, speaking in a rather explicit manner.
Such blatant provocation would likely leave any man unmoved. Moreover, Hu Meier was not unattractive, and her figure was excellent, with many people coveting her.
A series of swallowing sounds echoed from all around. Su Mu and the others, already weak, were stimulated by this, their blood rushing to their heads, and several of them fainted on the spot.
Yang Kai also felt a surge of lust, his Adam's apple involuntarily moving, his breathing heavy. The large hand that was gripping Hu Meier's neck tightened unconsciously.
Hu Meier panted, twisting her body a few times, and glared at Yang Kai with a scolding look, "Aren't you going to let go?"
As she spoke, she extended one hand and gently and tenderly pried open Yang Kai's hand. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she placed Yang Kai's hand on her round and full chest.
The astonishing elasticity and warmth transmitted through his palm, Yang Kai clearly felt a small protrusion pressing against his palm. Such stimulation made the blood flowing from his wound seem to accelerate.
Yang Kai's face turned red. He never expected this woman to be so wanton. She was so young, but indeed, one's ambitions are not limited by age, and her flirtatiousness was evident.
Seeing Yang Kai's awkwardness, Hu Meier giggled, her breath like a fragrant breeze, "What do you want to do?"
Yang Kai looked at Hu Meier beneath him, feeling like a dog biting a hedgehog, not knowing where to start. Throughout the entire battle, Hu Meier had not actually attacked the Lingxiao Pavilion disciples, so Yang Kai couldn't hit her. He wanted to teach her a lesson because she had been stirring up trouble the whole time.
But being teased like this, Yang Kai felt a bit indignant. He was a man, after all, and couldn't be played with so easily.
After some thought, Yang Kai suddenly squeezed the hand covering Hu Meier's chest.
"Ah..." Hu Meier's face changed, and she moaned, her face instantly flushing. She glared at Yang Kai angrily, not expecting him to be so ungentle.
Amidst laughter, Yang Kai stood up and looked at Hu Meier, "You can go."
Hu Meier was stunned, staring at Yang Kai in disbelief. She never thought her irresistible allure would fail. Her body was coveted by many, and young men often fought over her. Today, she had taken a rare interest in a man and actively tempted him, but he had ignored her.
Is he even a man?
After a moment, Hu Meier suddenly smiled, gracefully getting up from the ground. She looked deeply at Yang Kai, biting her red lips, and whispered in his ear, "You're very interesting!"
With that, she giggled and turned to leave, her willowy waist and full hips swaying seductively.
Su Mu and the others were dumbfounded, their eyes filled with envy and resentment. They never thought Yang Kai would refuse such a good opportunity. Each of them asked themselves, what would they have done if Hu Meier had spoken to them like that?
They would have definitely taken her! No, absolutely taken her. Why refuse a good thing that falls from the sky? There was no loss.
After Hu Meier left, everyone turned to look at Yang Kai, feeling both heartache and shame.
Sighs echoed.
Yang Kai squatted down, tearing off some cloth from the unconscious disciples of Fengyu Tower and wrapping his injured hand.
Looking at Su Mu and the others, these junior brothers all had embarrassed expressions.
"Do you have the strength to walk?" Yang Kai asked.
They nodded slightly.
"Then let's go."
The group, bruised and battered, returned to Lingxiao Pavilion, each going their separate ways to find medicine and treat their injuries. Although they had fought today, this was just a conflict among the younger generation, and such things often happened between the three major forces nearby, so there was no need to make a big fuss.
As long as no important person died, the elders of each force would turn a blind eye, never asking. Struggle leads to progress, and the elders of each force hoped to use such methods to temper their disciples.
Yang Kai returned to his small wooden house, originally intending to take out the remaining half bottle of blood-clotting and bruise-removing ointment, but he decided against it after some thought.
Today's injuries were mainly the wound on his palm from the long sword, and the others were not serious. The wound on his palm looked severe but was not as bad as it seemed. When he grabbed Cheng Shaofeng's sword, Yang Kai had avoided the bones and meridians. Although there was a hole in his palm, it was only a flesh wound.
It was similar to the injury he had sustained in the battle with the flower-backed spider. He had recovered in three to four days last time, and it should be the same this time.
Moreover, in just a short while, his injuries had already improved, and his strength had recovered somewhat. Yang Kai carefully felt for a moment and discovered that not only did the warmth emitted by his Proud Bone Golden Body have healing effects, but the True Yang Essence Qi in his body also had some healing ability. With both working together, his injuries recovered quickly.
Knowing that True Yang Essence Qi also had healing properties, Yang Kai hurried to Kunlong Gorge to absorb Yang Qi. Although he hadn't used the only drop of Yang Liquid in today's battle, his True Yang Essence Qi had been consumed quite a bit and needed replenishment.
While absorbing Yang Qi, Yang Kai suddenly felt a surge within his body. The external Yang Qi uncontrollably rushed in, and in just a moment, it equaled the work of one or two days of normal practice. Not only was the True Yang Essence Qi he had consumed today completely replenished, but it also became more concentrated, and his meridians seemed to become tougher and wider in an instant.
Eighth Layer of the Body Tempering Realm? Yang Kai came to his senses, his face showing some joy.
Breaking through to the Eighth Layer of the Body Tempering Realm so quickly was not something Yang Kai had expected. He had originally estimated that it would take at least seven to eight more days of cultivation.
It seemed that this was related to his all-out battle today. Indeed, fighting was beneficial.
With joy in his heart, Yang Kai practiced the True Yang Technique even more diligently. After breaking through a realm, the speed of absorbing Yang Qi increased significantly, and all aspects improved.
At night, Yang Kai returned to the wooden house to rest. Since he was injured today, it was not suitable to stay up late practicing.
In the following days, Yang Kai spent most of his time eating, sleeping, and practicing in Kunlong Gorge.
Su Mu and the others did not show up, probably all still recovering from their injuries.
A few days later, in the early morning, Yang Kai was sweeping the ground when he saw Su Mu leading Li Yuntian and the others approaching. All those who had participated in the battle were there, following Su Mu with high spirits.
However, despite several days of recovery, this group still looked rather pitiful, with bruised eye sockets and swollen mouths, quite comical.
Yang Kai glanced at them and couldn't help but laugh, "Junior Brother Su, are you itching for more?"
