Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 630: Mei Gongzis Transformation

chapter 630: mei gongzi's transformation

she had never seen a man's body up close before!

as more of his skin was revealed, she couldn't help but turn even redder.

once she reached his waist, she hesitated. what should she do? after a brief thought, she started from the bottom, peeling the charred shell from his feet, then worked her way up past his calves, knees, and then his thighs.

her breathing became rapid. she closed her eyes and peeled the charred shell with her small hands. but when she reached the upper thighs, she stopped, hurriedly pulling a nearby blanket over him.

"you, you... can do the rest yourself!"

feeling his steady heartbeat and even breathing, she calmed her own breath, which had by now turned quite erratic.

she fetched a broom to sweep up the charred shell pieces and threw them away. then she returned to his side, held his wrist again, and felt his blood flow and energy circulation.

at this moment, mei gongzi's sea of consciousness had transformed into a sea of divine consciousness, making her senses much sharper. she discovered that although tang san's energy fluctuations were weak, they were very stable, and his vitality was abundant. more peculiarly, there seemed to be a special energy constantly being generated in his body. his initially red and tender skin had mostly returned to normal, and if she looked closely, she could see a faint golden glow.

his body is incredible! to think he managed to survive that formidable lightning!

he was truly amazing. he always managed to turn danger into safety. he seemed to arrange everything perfectly as long as she was with him. he always found a way through, even in the face of great danger.

although he seemed weak at the moment, holding his wrist gave mei gongzi a special sense of security, a feeling she cherished. perhaps the greatest thing a man could give a woman was a sense of safety.

and speaking of power, even she didn't know how strong she had become after the tribulation.

thinking of strength naturally led her to remember something else that was rather important. she quietly stood up and left tang san's room, letting him rest.

su qin was waiting outside and gently comforted her when she saw her come out, "don't worry too much. his vital signs are all good. we just need to wait for him to recover slowly."

mei gongzi nodded, much more relieved now. "he'll be fine. by the way, mom, how long was i unconscious? when is the ceremony?"

su qin replied, "there's no need to rush. after you returned, your father announced that the clan leader's inheritance ceremony would be postponed for five days. postponing things would’ve been to your disadvantage normally, but he said that after you survived such a tribulation, anything else was inconsequential. he was extremely excited that day, i don’t think i’ve ever seen him that way. you know... watching those terrifying tribulation clouds from the shore... it really scared me."

mei gongzi glanced back at tang san's room and said softly, "luckily, he was there. if it weren't for him, i might not have made it... but anyway, since the ceremony won't be held for a while, i'll stay here and care for him until he gets better. please have someone bring some warm water; i want to clean him up."

su qin opened her mouth, intending to say something, but ultimately held back. it was undeniable: without tang san, her daughter wouldn't have succeeded in the tribulation. although she was worried about his severe injuries, she nodded in agreement and went to arrange things personally.

mei gongzi returned to tang san's room, pulled a chair to the side of the bed, and sat there silently watching him.

after the outer layer of charred skin had fallen off and his skin recovered, tang san's complexion looked surprisingly good. although his aura was still weak, he didn't seem to be in serious trouble.

he wasn’t exactly resting, however; he was wide awake and pondering. in fact, he had been conscious for a while, even before mei gongzi arrived.

that day, the mysterious circles of heaven had neutralized most of the lightning, and thanks to the power of the asura sword, they had somehow managed to carve out a path to life, but a significant amount of the lightning’s residual power had still struck him.

at that time, tang san's mind had practically gone blank, but his divine consciousness had protected him. the projection of the sea god trident had safeguarded his sea of consciousness, and the rainbow skyfire liquid and spacetime beacon had also played their parts well, slowing down the lightning's descent and guiding part of it into the sea.
