Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 338 The matter of Holy Soul Village is settled, Gu Yuena confesses.

"You think it's possible too?" Su Yuntao's eyes gleamed with confidence, his confidence growing even stronger.

"Haha, don't trust me too much. If it's cultivation, I can talk about it fluently, but when it comes to planting, the future planning and development of the city, I can only talk about it theoretically." Tang San knew his own limitations, chuckled twice, and then said, "But Brother Tao can go ahead and do it. If it fails in the end, at most it's just that the Spirit Hall's experiment failed, and Notting City will have to import grain from other places in the future."

"With more convenient transportation in the future, shipping will also be faster."

Su Yuntao laughed and said, "That's true. There's no such thing as success on the first try. I estimate that the transformation of Notting City and the surrounding Creative Area will take four or five years."

In fact, Su Yuntao knew that even if things went wrong in the end, he would at most be demoted from a branch hall master, since the higher-ups all knew that he had a connection with the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.

However, he now genuinely wants to make other contributions besides the path of Soul Master cultivation, so as to leave a significant mark on history.

Before he turned six, Su Yuntao dreamed of awakening a good martial spirit.

After turning six, Su Yuntao entered the junior academy, hoping to become a Soul Master and receive the Spirit Hall's gold Soul Coins to live a better life.

At the age of twelve, he obtained a white spirit ring, graduated successfully, joined the Spirit Hall, and gradually began to awaken spirits for others, patrol, and other tasks, thus understanding the meaning of "justice".

At eighteen, I met Sisi, and all I could think about was how to get her... no, how to be with Sisi.

At the age of twenty-one, he met Tang San in Holy Soul Village... From that day on, his fate was completely changed. He not only gradually gained the appreciation of Matthew, but also won the favor of Sisi.

Now, he's even become the branch master of the Spirit Hall in Notting City, and he has a child with Sisi...

Looking back on his past, Su Yuntao realized that his thoughts had been changing all along, and now he actually wanted to be remembered for all time... He himself found it unbelievable.

However, Su Yuntao felt that this new idea could allow him to dedicate the rest of his life to something beyond mere desire, but rather a dream.

At this moment, Old Jack and Gu Yuena entered from outside the door, chatting and laughing. They introduced Gu Yuena to Tang San, saying, "Little San, I've already taken Na'er as my granddaughter. You can take good care of your sister from now on."

Tang San: "..."

Su Yuntao gave Old Jack a thumbs up, then whispered to Tang San with a playful tone, "Amazing! She'll definitely be a great beauty when she grows up!"

"Speaking of which, shouldn't the Holy Son remain a virgin?"

"You must have been holding it in for ages!"

Tang San's expression grew increasingly speechless, and he replied softly, "Actually, I'm not a virgin."

"I understand~" Su Yuntao said with a dignified expression. "Most people get married and have children by the time they are fifteen or sixteen. You haven't even touched a woman. It's not good to talk about. I will definitely keep it a secret for you."

Got it!

This is impossible to explain!

After staying in Holy Soul Village for three days, Tang San visited the blacksmith shop where he had once taught the boy how to forge blacksmiths. At that time, the boy had already started a family and had a three-year-old child.

Upon seeing Tang San arrive, he brought his family of three to pay their respects, introducing himself as his teacher who would impart his skills...

Three days later, Tang San bid farewell to Old Jack, Su Yuntao, and others, and left Holy Soul Village.

Come quietly.

Leave quietly.

Apart from a few familiar faces, no one else in the village knew that Tang San had returned, and they continued to live their ordinary yet fulfilling and peaceful lives.

Everyone has their own life.

Tang San was no exception.

"Tell me, why did you agree to Grandpa Jack's suggestion to take you as his granddaughter?" On the way back to Wuhun City, Tang San and Gu Yuena rode in the same carriage, and Tang San asked about this.

"If the Soft Bone Rabbit can do it, why can't I?" Gu Yuena brought up Xiao Wu's example.

"Hmm~ She doesn't owe me money for selling myself." Tang San gave Gu Yuena a reason she couldn't refute, which made her face turn red with anger. Finally, she resorted to shamelessness and said, "Anyway, I'm your sister now, so I don't need to pay back the money I owe."

"Even between siblings, accounts should be settled clearly," Tang San said calmly. "Besides, I've never coerced you into repaying the money, have I? Or perhaps—"

At this point, Tang San's lips curled into a slight smile: "You're just trying to get closer to me?"

Gu Yuena's cheeks flushed red instantly, and she shouted, "How could that be? Don't be so narcissistic! I just saw old Jack's dream of having a granddaughter and was simply helping him achieve his wish!"

"Is that so?" Tang San remained noncommittal and didn't continue on that topic. Instead, he asked another question: "So, now can you tell me what your identity really is? After all, I'm your brother now."

"Bullshit! I'm still your master!"

Gu Yuena pouted, suddenly feeling that she had recognized a grandfather, which lowered her seniority. She wondered if she would have to call Xiao Wu and Guang Ling "sister" when she saw them in the future.

At the time, I was only focused on getting closer to Tang San, and I didn't expect this.

"Don't tell Xiao Wu and Guang Ling when you get back."

"Okay," Tang San agreed, figuring he wouldn't be the one embarrassed later.

Gu Yuena closed her eyes, then suddenly opened them. Her purple pupils turned silver, devoid of any emotion, and her tone was icy: "I am the Silver Dragon King, the sovereign of the Star Dou Great Forest..."

Tang San didn't react much as he listened to Gu Yuena recount the Dragon God's experiences and her own slumber.

"Do you think I'm lying?" Gu Yuena asked.

"No, I was just wondering why your pupils turned silver-white when you were talking about this kind of thing?" Tang San asked a question that stunned Gu Yuena.

"I've said something so important, and this is all you care about?" Gu Yuena's silver eyes flashed with hostility, and the slight energy emanating from them caused the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) to become chaotic. "Or do you think everything I just said was a lie? I've never lied to you!"

"Yes, I know, but gods and such are too far removed from my current understanding. I'm more concerned about your eye color. Is it really not some kind of malignant disease?"

Compared to the Silver Dragon King's deeds, which he had already anticipated, Tang San was more curious about how Gu Yuena managed to change her eye color. It didn't seem to be a simple optical color difference change, but rather a convergence of elemental energy.

At least, Gu Yuena in her silver-eyed state exudes an aura more than ten times stronger than in her purple-eyed state.

Gu Yuena's chest heaved violently, her silver eyes turning purple again. She snorted, "Fine, take it as you being concerned about me... Let's get down to business. What are your thoughts on the God Realm?"

Tang San stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and slowly said, "In your words, the gods of the God Realm don't seem to be any good people, and aren't very objective. But from a human perspective, they're alright, since they don't care about mortals in the lower realm. It's just that when humanity develops to a certain stage, perhaps the God Realm will become an obstacle..."

These two chapters mainly mention the changes in Holy Soul Village, its future development, and the changes after Su Yuntao became the Palace Master.
