Returning from the Immortal World - Chapter 574

Chapter 574: Fully Isolated and Assailed on All Sides

The sleeping and standing figure continued to hug Kang Xia. This time, the situation prolonged for a very long time, and only after three hours did Tang Xiu finally awake from his deep sleep. He could feel a cooling aura around him, and the first thing that came to his sight after he opened his eyes was Kang Xia's beautiful face.

"I… did I fall asleep?" Tang Xiu felt that it was a bit inconceivable.

Kang Xia's immersion in cultivation was interrupted, as she opened her star-like pupils and smilingly said, "Yes! You fell asleep while standing."

"My state of confusion and bewilderment drove my mental state down." Tang Xiu revealed an awkward and wry smile. "I didn't expect that I… Ah, that's right, was the fluctuation of the world spiritual energy caused by your cultivation?"

Blinking her eyes, Kang Xia released herself from Tang Xiu's hold and ran about five meters away to a clean spot and sat on it. Two minutes later, she stood up with a dull expression and then looked at Tang Xiu with a face full of a puzzled expression, saying, "It's strange. My cultivation speed was so fast when I was hugging you before. It was so fast to the extent that I don't how many times it's compared to when I practice by myself. But after separating from you, my cultivation speed returned to its previous state."

"What did you say?" Tang Xiu stared blankly before immediately asked with a surprised expression.

"My cultivation speed was very fast when I was being by hugged you, but it turned very slow when we separated." Kang Xia said, "The warm current inside my body has doubled within just a few hours and above all, my control over them has become easier."

Tang Xiu looked down at himself and thought for a while before figuring out the reason. His present cultivation level was already very high, and it caused his body to constantly absorb the energy from the stars and the sun, hence with the Heaven and Earth spiritual energy as a medium, the world energy around him became richer than elsewhere. While Kang Xia cultivated at his side, it was equivalent of practicing in a place where the spiritual energy was richer by many times, hence the reason why her cultivation speed was naturally faster.

Immediately, after Tang Xiu explained the reason, Kang Xia was no longer shocked and felt happy instead. She kept pestering Tang Xiu, causing the latter to allow her to stay by his side more often later.

"That's right, how were the sales of our new products?" Just as Tang Xiu remembered this matter, he quickly asked about it.

A smile blossomed on Kang Xia's beautiful face upon hearing his question, as she replied with a sigh, "The information relayed from our exclusive stores all over the country showed that the lowest sales rate from the slowest exclusive store had all the healthcare products sold out in only two and a half hours."

"It seems Long Zhenglin's idea was really great!" Tang Xiu stared blankly and praised. "This brat will surely run home to find his old man and ask his support given that he's in a very poor state recently. Anyhow, after you return to Star City, give him his dividend according to his share, and tell him that the next dividend will be shared by the end of the year."

"No problem." Kang Xia said with a smile, "The Magnificent Tang Corp. doesn't lack funds for the time being. Also, I've pressed and allocated some funds in our account book to be prepared for the Star City's New City real estate next year. Another big part of our funds are currently being spent on opening more production lines for several products."

"Since you're the one managing the business, I believe you can do it well." Tang Xiu said, "Anyways, since you are in Shanghai, how about we stroll around and look for a suitable place for the future HQ of our company?"

Kang Xia's eyes lit up and agreed.

In the next two days, Kang Xia was very busy and was only able to snatch brief moments of leisure from work. She returned to Bluestar Villa Complex every night, and yet still dealt with work issues, holding video conferences with the top executives of the Magnificent Tang Corporation. During the day, she followed Tang Xiu everywhere to find a good plot of land. Finally, the two saw a wide undeveloped area on the border of Shanghai City and Su region.
