"Who wants to hug you!"
Dugu Yan spat and immediately distanced herself from Song Zhe.
He was so out of line just now, He had no ladylike composure left at all.
But she really couldn't help it!
When she saw Song Zhe collapse and convulse, she became extremely nervous and even forgot to call her grandfather to save him.
What's more, what about her pride and self-restraint?
Compared to Song Zhe's life, what do those things matter?
"Miss Dugu, do you regret letting me go now?"
Song Zhe chuckled awkwardly, staring at Dugu Yan with a teasing expression. This girl is really cute!
"Pah, shameless bastard! You should go into seclusion now, I'll protect you."
Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at Song Zhe, then quickly returned to her original state.
However, she went to the door alone and instructed the servants not to go in and disturb them.
Song Zhe, who was inside, took the opportunity to consume the Blood Bodhi and sat cross-legged on the bed.
There was also a fragrance around him that entered his nose; it was the scent of roses from Dugu Yan.
He didn't know if it's her own scent or the scent from washing clothes and hair.
If none of these apply, then it must be her genes that chose Song Zhe.
(TL: putting aside his narcissism lol, scent attraction is a real scientific thing, the more 'good' someone scent smells to you the more scientifically accurate attraction you could feel to that person, so yes you can judge your partners compatibility by how good you smell towards each other)
Just like Gu Yuena, who is pure and spotless and doesn't need any fragrance, he can still smell her delicate fragrance.
She had verified this with the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and indeed only he could smell it.
This is probably what is referred to in biology as his genetic selection of Gu Yuena.
If he doesn't stay with Gu Yuena, it would be a decision that goes against his genes.
While he was lost in thought.
A surge of powerful energy spread throughout his body, rapidly permeating his internal organs.
Immediately, Song Zhe activated the Lesser Formless Skill and began refining the power brought by the Blood Bodhi.
Over the years, he has rarely consumed treasures that enhance his power.
Furthermore, the points were not used; they will be used later to upgrade the age of the Soul Rings.
Otherwise, he would have been at least a Soul Emperor by now, instead of just a Soul Ancestor Master.
However, it's unclear what kind of power he will gain after absorbing such a massive amount of energy.
The power of the Lesser Formless Skill, though not as great as the powerful techniques in the world of high martial arts.
But it is also the ceiling of the low-level martial arts world, the peerless internal energy cultivation method of the Xiaoyao Sect.
The boundless energy was rapidly being refined within his body.
Originally at level 47, his soul power naturally broke through to level 48.
From then on, it was unstoppable and grew rapidly.
In a short while, he reached level 49 in soul power, and then entered the shackles of level 50.
Although after reaching level 50, his soul power was stabilized and he could not break through further.
But the energy of the Blood Bodhi was still being rapidly refined, hidden within his cells.
Once he obtains a soul ring, he can circulate his cultivation technique again and continue to improve his strength.
Song Zhe spent a considerable amount of time refining the Blood Bodhi, finally absorbing its power late into the night.
It has to be said that this thing is a treasure in the world of high-level martial arts, as it greatly enhances one's soul power.
He just didn't know what level he could reach after obtaining the soul ring.
"Phew~"
Song Zhe stood up by hand, and his whole body felt much lighter.
This is probably because, now that it has reached the Quasi-Soul King level, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass is about to undergo a transformation.
"Song Zhe, are you finished? There's some food here, I've been keeping it warm for you with my soul power."
Dugu Yan immediately brought the food on the table to Song Zhe.
She was worried that Song Zhe would be hungry after finishing his cultivation, so she specially saved a portion for him.
Moreover, it has been kept warm with soul power since dinner time.
It's not cold right now, so there's no need to worry about Song Zhe not being used to the food.
"Yanyan, you don't have to do this."
Song Zhe was somewhat moved.
It seems that all the girls around him dote on him without asking.
(TL: in this day and age finding a considerate partner is harder to find than a job)
Even the act of preserving food is strikingly similar.
He's not fussy at all; he can eat anything, good or bad.
"You should call me 'Miss Sister'."
Dugu Yan snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied with the name Yanyan.
That's what Grandpa calls her. Song Zhe is clearly younger than her, not an elder, so she shouldn't call him Yanyan.
"Okay, Yanyan."
Song Zhe placed the plate on the ground, picked up the food inside, and began to eat happily.
He was indeed quite hungry after not eating for so long.
However, compared to the food available now, he felt that something that looked delicious was even more appealing.
"You rascal, you're trying to take advantage of me again because of our seniority."
Dugu Yan was extremely frustrated.
How did her grandfather become sworn brothers with Song Zhe?
As a result, her generation dropped by two generations, while Song Zhe was fortunate enough to become a grandfather.
"Okay, then I'll take advantage of you."
Song Zhe nodded seriously.
He actually felt that the advantage of seniority was meaningless.
But it gets really interesting when it falls on other things.
"I did not mean that..."
Dugu Yan hurriedly denied it, as if trying to deny something.
But then she thought that her resistance might upset Song Zhe, and her voice trailed off.
"I understand, I understand."
Song Zhe remained calm; he was the legendary "King of Understanding."
Nothing escapes the eyes of the Know-It-All; his little sister is just a little absent-minded.
"What do you know?"
Now it was Dugu Yan's turn to go crazy. She herself didn't understand what Song Zhe was imagining.
"We've eaten, now it's time for us to go to sleep."
Song Zhe handed the bowl and chopsticks to the servants outside and told them to leave.
Then, he reached out and picked up Dugu Yan in a princess carry, placing her on her own bed.
"Song Zhe, what do you want to do?"
Dugu Yan lay on the bed, tense and motionless.
Yesterday, Song Zhe climbed into her bed and forced her to sleep with him; she couldn't resist.
But today, he was openly and brazenly going to share a bed with her, which made her quite afraid.
"What? It's you, of course!"
Song Zhe reached out to unbutton Dugu Yan's clothes; this girl didn't like sleeping in clothes.
Since she hates being tied down, let him, this understanding man, help her free herself from those constraints!
"No, Song Zhe, you are too young."
Dugu Yan quickly grabbed Song Zhe's hand to stop him from continuing.
Song Zhe, who was sitting by the bed, did not continue. Since the other party was unwilling, he did not force her.
"Um."
Song Zhe nodded.
"Since that's the case, let's send a message to Sister Na'er and go to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a Soul Ring."
"I did not mean that."
Dugu Yan hurriedly reached out and hugged Song Zhe's waist, holding him tightly and refusing to let go.
When she saw Song Zhe about to leave, she was filled with regret.
If she had known, she wouldn't have been so reserved. Now that Song Zhe has misunderstood, he'll definitely have a grudge about it.
"Miss sister, you should go to sleep!"
Song Zhe patted Dugu Yan's head. She had been watching over him all day, and Dugu Yan must be tired.
"Are you angry? I really didn't mean to refuse, I'm just a little scared."
With tears in her eyes, Dugu Yan clung tightly to Song Zhe.
She could clearly tell that Song Zhe wanted to leave and didn't want to stay with her.
