Chapter 1636: Chapter 1630: Space Boredom

“Okay.” Although Qin Xue did not want him to see how she did it, looking at his determined eyes, she nodded in agreement.

“Since everything has been discussed, let’s disperse. Everyone go wash up and rest. There are still many things to do tomorrow.” Qin Xue did not want to waste everyone’s time any longer, so she adjourned the meeting.

“Xue’er, I’ll go rest too. You should sleep early and not think too much.” Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue, who was still deep in thought, and reminded her.

“Got it, I’m staying next door to you.” Suddenly, Qin Xue said something unrelated.

“Okay.” Chu Molin laughed, finding his wife amusing.

“Go back and sleep, good night.” Qin Xue waved to Chu Molin.

“Mm, good night.” Chu Molin also smiled. Luckily, everyone had left; otherwise, they might have thought the sun would rise from the west tomorrow, as this man, cold as ice, actually smiled.

“Master, what is your plan?” Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue, not understanding why she kept looking at her palm.

“It’s this.” Qin Xue placed her hand in front of Xue Ling.

“Your hand?” Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue in confusion.

“Yes, it’s my hand. Didn’t I get hurt today? I wanted to wash it, but then…” Qin Xue told Xue Ling what happened afterwards.

“You mean to say that the water source here has been polluted by coal, but the pollution isn’t immediately lethal; it’s the accumulation over many years that poses a threat to their lives. Their life expectancy is only forty years to bear this, so that’s why they only live up to that age, right?” Xue Ling analyzed Qin Xue’s words to understand her perspective.

But isn’t this situation a bit too bizarre? If that’s the case, hasn’t the time they’ve spent here been somewhat laughable?

“Yes, exactly, but why didn’t my blood have this ability before, and now it does? That’s what confuses me.” Qin Xue was still troubled by this.

“Did anything else happen today?” Xue Ling asked Qin Xue after hearing this.

“Nothing special; if anything, it’s that the bracelet on my hand kept feeling warm, but it wasn’t hot to the touch.” Qin Xue touched the silver bracelet on her wrist; although it was warm now, it wasn’t scorching as it was in the Imperial Capital.

“It is odd, but regardless, now that we’ve found the cause, we’ll deal with the source tomorrow and then go back. We’ll see the results later.” Xue Ling was tired of staying here; mainly, it missed the young masters. It wondered if they were reciting their mantras on time and practicing the moves it taught them.

Xue Ling did not sense any danger for them, so it only missed them without feeling urgent.

But being able to return home is always comforting, isn’t it? Isn’t it said that no matter how luxurious, there’s no place like one’s own home?

And Xue Ling’s home was in the space, the best place. However, being alone there was too lonely, so it spent most of its time outside.

With company, it felt fulfilled and very happy. It’s what it had always wanted, and now that it had it, it naturally cherished it.

“Yeah, I think so too. Let’s solve the issues here first. If there’s anything else, they can find us in the Imperial Capital. We can’t stay here forever and not go home, right?” Qin Xue thought the same; she had come up with a plan, and the work was done, but the effectiveness still needed to be verified over time, didn’t it?
