"You want to go back? I was expecting you to stay here for a while."Said Xu Xiaoyan in surprise as she stared at her boyfriend.
"There are some things I need to do." Said Tang Wulin causing Xu Xiaoyan to tilt her head but she didn't question him on what it was.
"So are you going to fly?" Questioned Xu Xiaoyan as she knew that Wulin had motion sickness when he went on a moving vehicle.
"I will take the boat with you guys." Said Tang Wulin causing Xu Xiaoyan eyes to widen in shock.
"Don't you-."
"Motion sickness? Don't worry I fix that."Said Tang Wulin causing a breathtaking smile to bloom on Xu Xiaoyan face as she jumps into his embrace and began to laugh.
"That is great!" Said Xu XIaoyan as she held on to Wulin.
How long have they wished for the day when Tang Wulin could ride with them? How many grand events and delightful moments did they miss because of his motion sickness?
"I'm sure it is, now where are you taking us?" Questioned Tang Wulin as he stared at the city in front of them, while he was holding Xu Xiaoyan.
"Oh right, I wanted to take you to see a show with me! You know you haven't relaxed much since we got to the island."Said Xu Xiaoyan as she begins lecturing Tang Wulin.
She barely sees Tang Wulin typically doing anything other than training, even when he rightfully deserves the time to rest and relax. She fears that one day he may break down from the constant work.
"And I assume you're going to help me relax?" Questioned Tang Wulin.
"Of course! As your amazing girlfriend, I will make sure to get a smile out of that pretty face of yours."Said Xu Xiaoyan with a delighted giggle and determination in her eyes.
"At least she is committed." Zeref voice rang out but Tang Wulin disregarded him.
"Proceed." Said Tang Wulin causing Xu Xiaoyan eyes to lit up and then she begins to dragging him into the town of Tenrou City.

For the next few weeks, Tang Wulin and Mu Ye were reviewing the future plans of Tenrou City. Tang Wulin told most of his plans to Mu Ye about what he will be doing the Douluo Continent causing Mu Ye to almost drop in shock.
If Mu Ye didn't know much or anything about the Tang Wulin, he would have thought most of the plans that Tang Wulin told him was a joke. That wasn't the end of the shock as Mu Ye found out Tang Wulin strength and blood essence increased even more.
To say, he was shocked that Tang Wulin strength has increased once more would be an understatement. In fact, he literal fainted for a few seconds and caused Wang Tong expression to show shock, for the first time since Tang Wulin arrived.
After Mu Ye had woken up, he became unbelievably delighted as he started comprehending the situation. Mu Ye laughed throughout the whole day and a smile stayed on his face for the whole week as he knew the Body Sect future would be promising.
Just how shocked and terrified would the world be if they found out a Spirit King had the brute strength of a Quasi God or even higher? Wouldn't this knowledge mean he was unrivaled against all but those above Super Douluo with Three-word battle armor?
Not only that but just how terrifying would he be, once he becomes a Limit Douluo? Demi-God? A Quasi God?
Yet all of this wasn't due just to the Golden Dragon King seal but also Tang Wulin constant baptism of external powers onto his body and his slayer arts.
Mu Ye had no answer, as the thought was just too terrifying for him to even think about. But from this, he recognized one thing, Tang Wulin talent truly surpass the soul masters before him.
But even still, Mu Ye forced Tang Wulin and Wu Siduo to continue training to achieve the Golden Body. Yet Mu Ye has become shocked once again as he saw Wu Siduo making an even faster breakthrough in the Golden Body from her usual speed.
This was because Wu Siduo was able to gain some insights and comprehension from the battles of the gods in the tower of Mahal. She found that her understanding of the Golden Body was becoming easier to grasp as she watches those godlike figures battle and using their indestructible body.
Mu Ye had Wu Siduo spar with him for a bit and he was shocked at the level of her strength was.
And that was all without her achieving the final level of Body Forging and employing any of the new Body Sect techniques that were recently created. Mu Ye couldn't help but cry in joy at how terrifying his two disciples were.
He also made sure Wu Siduo went to go practice her Mech Mantiencing. Tang Wulin informed him before that he didn't need one and after seeing his progress, Mu Ye had to admit he was right.
Although he did wish he disciple would have just in case but Mu Ye knew it would be a losing battle to try and change Tang Wulin mind.
It wasn't just Wu Siduo, but everyone else was making progress on their profession. With the help of the staff at Tenrou City and the people that were brought over by Mu Ye. They had a professional who was able to help them.
Mu Xi was able to reach a rank seven blacksmiths who were called a Saint Craftsman with the help of her dad. Mu Chen was so happy that he kept on bragging to the whole city about the amazement of his daughter to the amus_e_m_e_nt of his wife.
This led him to be chased around the city by Mu Xi with her flaming hammer in rage. But that didn't stop him from still showering her with love.
After that Mu Xi went on to focus on her cultivation, with her bringing her spirit rank up to 79. Mu Chen was a little bit shocked at Mu Xi speed but he was nonetheless still happy.
After that, she started to train with Ye Xinglan to increase her ability in using the sword. While at the same time was working on the metals for everyone Battle Armor.
Ye Xinglan would bring along Xu Lihzi so that all three of them could spar with each other. Yet even while all of them were sparring, Mu Xi could sense and see they both of them were tense.
Ye Xinglan didn't focus on her cultivation for those few weeks but more on getting an even deeper understanding of her sword. But to the shock of some of the elders in both the Body Sect and Tenrou Academy, she achieved Sword Soul in those two weeks.
Although it wasn't a surprise considering she was using the experience of her sword fight with the Demon Monarch Alba to gain further enlightenment and understanding.
Yuanen Yehui was focusing on learning the secret about the sword she received from the Tower of Mahal. From what she found out so far, the sword name was called Fallen Animas and it was a soul weapon.
Xu Xiaoyan and her were helping each other learn more about their soul weapons. With them occasional sparring with each other and seeing how they could implement it into their fighting style.
Yuanen Yehui would also try out the changes that the absorption of the demon energy caused to both of her spirits. What she noted was that her Titan Giant Ape had faint wisp of purple-gold flames around her when she utilizes it, similar to Tang Wulin ethereal golden aura.
While a hint of purple-gold could be found on her Fallen Seraphim and she was able to utilize the same purple-gold flames as Demon Monarch Alba. With these changes, Yuanen Yehui had to spar a lot to get a better understanding of their strength and limits.
Xu Xiaoyan was able to reach rank 68 and Yuanen Yehui reached rank 69.
Xie Xie, Na'er and Gu Yue were training with each other because of their ability with Space-Time. Xie Xie understanding and comprehension was becoming greater the more he learned from both of the girls.
Although there was the occasional fight between Xie Xie and Gu Yue, with Na'er just laughing at both them while keeping score of how many times they fought.
Gu Yue and Xie Xie were able to reach rank 68.
Surprisingly enough, Na'er was able to become the first Spirit Sage in their group. This caused all of the staffs and elder at the academy to shout out in fright. As this was the first time in history that there was a Spirit Sage at the age of sixteen.
This put a lot of pressure on Xie Xie, with him muttering a monster to Na'er, who only giggled at him but didn't refuse his words.
Yue Zhengyu absorbing the herbs he receives from the tower and was utilizing it to boost his cultivation. With this, he was able to reach rank 69 and then he would go spar with one of the elders to further increase his battle prowesses.
After another week, Tang Wulin and the rest of his friends boarded on a ship, that was leaving towards the Douluo Continent. It wasn't just them that board the ship but also the parents of the teenagers, some elders and also some of the students of Tenrou Academy.
It didn't take long for the sh_i_p_s to be filled and them departing.
The trip back would take two months but it wasn't boring as they all would be training or relaxing with each other. Xu Xiaoyan would drag Tang Wulin around the ship and have him relax with her when she found he didn't take a break.
Xie Xie would try and talk to Yuanen Yehui but as usual, she would only talk to him for a bit and go back to training. Almost two months passed by on the sh_i_p_s with everyone working on trying to get stronger.
Tang Wulin was training all of his other skills that he has been neglecting so far. He decided to put his body training on hold since his body was already beyond that of a soul master.
"What's wrong with Xie Xie?" Questioned Sleipnir.
"It's probably the fact that he and Yuanen seem to have grown farther apart, instead of closer." Said Zeref as he gazes at the boy.
Tang Wulin only shook his head and then began walking towards to Xie Xie. As he got closer, Xie Xie voice rang out to him.
"Hey, boss..."Said Xie Xie with his tone sounding bitter but Tang Wulin said nothing as he just stood behind Xie Xie.
A silence took swept over the deck of the ship as neither of the boys said anything to each other. Sleipnir was worried, but Zeref stops her from saying anything as he believed Acnologia knew what he was doing.
"It seems no matter what I do, I just can't understand Yuanen. Every time I think I'm getting closer to her. It looks like I'm getting farther away. When I tried to ask what I'm doing wrong, she always sends me flying." Said Xie Xie causing Tang Wulin to roll his eyes and grab on to his collar.
"Let's go." Said Tang Wulin as he began dragging Xie Xie.
"B-Boss where are going!"
"Isn't it obvious? Since she keeps sending you flying, even when you try to find out what was wrong with her. Then it's only obvious you need to get strong enough to stop her from beating you." Said Tang Wulin causing Xie Xie eyes to widen.
"W-Wait!"
Tang Wulin ignored Xie Xie and hauls him to his room for training. Of course, he knew this wasn't going to really help Xie Xie with Yuanen but it was better than him moping.
For rest of the ship ride, Xie Xie and Tang Wulin would work on their Time Magic. Although screams of terror and pain would emit from Tang Wulin room at times but everyone in the ship wisely stays clear from it.
In a blink of an eye, two months have passed.
