Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 814: The Feeling of Sleeping is So Good

Tang San said, "I've been thinking and experimenting a lot lately, and I've found some direction. I plan to go into seclusion soon to study it closely. Don't worry, I'll give it my all. This is crucial for our future."

Now that things had mostly stabilized, it was indeed time for him to focus on this task. Tang San had some ideas before, but figuring out how to implement them required a massive amount of trial and error. After all, this was about finding a suitable cultivation path for humanity!

Through his years of observing the humans of this plane, he had determined that the Mysterious Heaven Technique was not suitable as the main cultivation method here. The spiritual energy of this plane was different from that of the Douluo Continent where he once lived. Comparatively, the various elemental energies in this plane were much more active than on the Douluo Continent, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was lacking in terms of purity.

If one were to use the Mysterious Heaven Technique to cultivate without Tang San's experience and level of control, it would be very easy to deviate from the correct path and end up with massive problems. While it wasn't impossible to do it, the likelihood of encountering problems was too high. Moreover, absorbing different bloodlines like Tang San did only increased the risk of something going awry, and it simply wasn't worth the risk.

Zhang Haoxuan nodded. "Alright, I'll leave it to you."

The group chatted late into the night, discussing various plans for governing their future country. Eventually, Zhang Haoxuan and the others left, leaving the house to Tang San and Mei Gongzi.

Although they weren't officially together, everyone knew they were a couple.

"Are you planning to stay here for your seclusion?" Mei Gongzi asked, snuggling into Tang San's arms.

Tang San nodded and said, "Within the Endless Blue Sea, the power of faith nurtures my divine consciousness, and it keeps my thoughts clear. So, staying here for seclusion is the best choice. You should join me. My divine consciousness growth will also provide feedback to you through the Asura Sword."

"Sure, but I'll have to return to Kali City every now and then; otherwise, I'd be a really irresponsible city lord," Mei Gongzi said with a smile.

Tang San couldn't help but laugh, "Isn't that right? But don't worry too much. By the way, I'm planning to invite Xiao He over as well. When it comes to governing a city, and even more so a nation, the Redemption Society isn't particularly skilled. They've always operated in secret, focused on resistance efforts. Peacetime management isn't really their strength. In this regard, no one on the Daemon Continent is better than the Peacock Great Demon King."

"That's why you gave him a human body, didn't you?" retorted Mei Gongzi in a mockingly reproachful tone.

Tang San's face was nowhere near thin enough for him to lie about it. "Yes, that was an important part of it. But I really wasn't lying about a human body being the most suitable. It's very receptive to different energies, so it gave me the highest chance of success."

"Then I'll go back tomorrow and bring my father over. Though... I'm not sure if my second mother will be willing to let him go."

"I wouldn't worry about that. Now that we have the teleportation array, with her cultivation level, coming to Crescent Island would only take a moment. Xiao He is a great talent in governance, and we can't just let him rot away in his palace. With him, our human nation is way more likely to develop smoothly. This will also free up time for us to grow stronger."

Mei Gongzi looked up at him and asked, "Didn't you say that when we become truly powerful, we'll leave this world and return to our former plane? What will happen here then?"

"Don't worry. Before we leave, I will make sure to prepare everything for our people before we go. And even if we're gone, it doesn't mean we won't ever come back."

Mei Gongzi nodded. "Alright, it's getting late. Let's rest." As she spoke, she tried to get up from Tang San's embrace.

For them, meditation was the best form of rest and could also improve their cultivation.

But Tang San tightened his hold on her, closed his eyes, and said, "I don't want to meditate tonight. Will you stay with me?"

Mei Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned bright red. She lowered her voice, saying, "No, no, we're not married yet, you..."

Just as she was saying this, she noticed that Tang San's breathing had become more even. Leaning against the wooden wall, he had already fallen asleep, though his arms around her were still tight and showed no sign of loosening.

Mei Gongzi stared in disbelief. Had he really fallen asleep just like that? He was already an eleventh-order powerhouse!

But the next moment, she felt her heart throb. Right... It never really occurred to me, but... he must be really tired.

Ever since they had traveled to the Ancestral Court together—she for her duties and he for his tribulation—Tang San had been under constant tension. While she was reporting to the court, he faced an unprecedented tribulation, manipulating over a dozen Emperors of the Ancestral Court single-handedly.

After that, he continued to accompany her in cultivation while also managing affairs overseas, all while dealing with the shock and mental strain of thousands of his people being slaughtered.

Then, after finally returning from the Ancestral Court, he immediately came to the Endless Blue Sea, connecting to the sea and establishing his dominance. And this very morning, he faced six kings of the sea, showcasing his might under their pressure and pushing his cultivation to the eleventh order. Throughout all of this, he displayed strength and wisdom, giving her the impression that he was invincible and untouchable. But was he?

Not even true gods were immune to fatigue.

Yet he kept pushing through, doing everything he could to support everyone... To support her, for the most part.

And now, with everything having mostly settled, he was tired—truly exhausted. He may be fine physically, but his heart and spirit had never been so tired ever since he'd come into this world.

She wrapped her arms around him tightly, feeling a deep ache in her heart—an ache of sympathy.

She activated her spatial power, teleporting the two of them on the bed, just as they were. She let him hold her, carefully adjusting his position to make him as comfortable as possible.

She didn't try to break free from his embrace because she was aware that with her in his arms, he would sleep more soundly and rest better. Just like, with him in her arms, she felt safe and at peace.

***

When Tang San woke from his sleep, he felt warm and indescribably comfortable; a sense of peace and relaxation pervaded his body and mind. A faint fragrance lingered around his nose.

He looked down and saw her long, jet-black hair cascading like a waterfall. He was slightly stunned, but in the next moment, his heart filled with happiness.

He gently pulled her closer into his embrace, adjusting her head to rest more comfortably on his arm. His other hand wrapped around her waist.

Their clothes were no different from the day before, but they were covered by a blanket. Although at their level of cultivation, the warmth of a blanket didn't mean much, the feeling of being under it together was simply intoxicating. The warmth and comfort allowed Tang San to completely relax.

My wife is here. Xiao Wu or Mei Gongzi, she is mine all the same.

He watched her for a while, occasionally lowering his head to kiss her hair softly, waiting for her to wake up. But Mei Gongzi slept just as deeply as he had; the sky outside was gradually brightening, yet she showed no sign of waking up.

There truly is nothing like this. Emperors? God Kings? Divine realms? Who cares about all that when I can enjoy... this?

Right now, Tang San just wanted to be with his beloved. No feeling in this world compared to this tranquility and warmth.
