Chapter 1303: Chapter 63: The Sudden Ti-Space Retrospection
“This ti-space retrospection, your perceived ti is about one month?”
“One and a half months.”
“Do you think it was Young Master Huang who perford the ti-space retrospection?”
“From what I understand, during that period, only Young Master Huang, who had been promoted to Taiyin Lord, had the ability to adjust ti around . Otherwise, it would have been the Special Service Bureau, but Teacher Liu, you were not aware, so I can only suspect her.”
It’s unreasonable, but there aren’t more clues right now.
“There is another possibility.”
After pondering, Liu Zhihan provided an unexpected answer for Wang Yunxiao.
“It could be that the approach of a great tide triggered the immune protection chanism of the world line.”
Wang Yunxiao: “…”
Can you translate that into Chinese?
“Just like when a person is ill, they first get a fever, but the fever itself is not a symptom; it’s the body trying to raise its temperature to kill invading bacteria and viruses.”
Liu Zhihan patiently explained to him: “Theoretically, our Real World should also have a similar immune protection chanism, such that when a great tide arrives, through ti-space retrospection or similar thods, it can, to so extent, mitigate the damage the Temporal Tide causes to the Real World.”
“What do you an by should also?”
“It’s like a girl taking her first ride in a sedan chair, no one has actually experienced a great tide, so it’s only a guess, unable to prove it.”
Liu Zhihan said gravely: “The President’s itinerary must remain strictly confidential, I will communicate with the higher-ups, and you must not tell this to anyone. When I say anyone, I an including your wife.”
“I know.”
“Check on those two beggars, there may be information you didn’t grasp at the ti.”
“Alright.”
Wang Yunxiao left the office, found Li Mumu waiting outside, held her in his arms, and whispered comfortingly: “It’s alright now, don’t worry about . I have so things to handle now, don’t go ho yet, go to Shen Qingxi’s, or return to West Spring Mountain.”
Then he turned to Shen Qingxi beside him and said: “That thing we talked about earlier, implent it as soon as possible. Don’t worry about Tianhua, just lay low for a while.”
“I’ve always kept a low profile!”
Shen Qingxi was deeply aggrieved.
Initially, I only asked you to kill soone for , and while you’re at it, date .
Who thought you’d make it such a big deal.
After Wang Yunxiao left, Li Mumu turned her head, her previously worried and gentle expression gone, she tilted her head staring at Shen Qingxi who looked guilty.
“Seems like your relationship developed quite fast while I wasn’t around.”
“No, no, it’s all a joke.”
Shen Qingxi chuckled awkwardly and tried to explain.
“What kind of thing did you agree upon?”
“Nothing much, just using your personal safety to coerce him into dating …”
Seeing the killing intent in Li Mumu’s playful smile, Shen Qingxi quickly waved her hand: “Just kidding, let’s talk serious. Co back with first, we’ll talk slowly on the way.”
“Knowing you, you don’t seem to be joking.”
“Can we stop focusing on this for now? Your husband is already like that…”
“Since when does my husband’s condition need your concern?”
“You are really… sigh.”
Walking out the main entrance to her car, Shen Qingxi couldn’t help but sigh: “Even the ancients had the saying of entrusting wives and sons. Can’t you uphold so traditional virtue,[in case]you can’t co back, and ask your husband to take care of ?”
“The direction of your entrustnt of wives and sons, is it correct?”
Li Mumu couldn’t help but scoff, “I think you’re just hungry, if it’s not going well, find a proper one yourself, stop eyeing what’s mine.”
Shen Qingxi gave her a aningful look, saying nothing.
Finding one on her own would be such a hassle.
This even cos with an extra.
Back at her own company, Shen Qingxi took Li Mumu to her newly renovated luxurious bedroom, smiling playfully: “Although I don’t know which day you ca back, it’s not too late to welco you now, want to clean the dust off first?”
Li Mumu looked at the spacious enough bath pool in the washroom for a child to swim in, feeling that Shen Qingxi was up to no good.
“Why design it so big?”
“For enjoynt, otherwise, what would I do with all the money?”
Shen Qingxi quickly took off her top: “When designing this, I told them not to save money for , the more I spend, the more they earn, and the societal economy can develop. There are not many good-hearted bosses like now, who just eat without giving back, like a pixiu… This pool was designed for a monogamous pair, just right for a mandarin duck bath.”
“How many people are in this monogamous pair you’re talking about?”
Shen Qingxi giggled nervously, trying to feign cuteness to pass it off.
Li Mumu glared at her, and started undressing herself too.
Admittedly, this large bath pool and sauna she had arranged was indeed nice, it was clearly inspired by what she saw at the Liusheng Dojo, and likely the designers were even hired from there.
Not just the design, she probably brought the people back too.
While Li Mumu was enjoying the soak, the Nanyun sisters, dressed in Fusang bathrobes, walked in with tiny steps, carrying fresh fruits and various drinks and snacks.
“Weren’t they going to be temple priests?”
Li Mumu vaguely rembered that before she left, Yan Yu’an had already made arrangents for the girls from Liusheng Dojo, most were transferred to Uesugi Risa’s temple.
And about that temple… well, that temple now also belongs to Shen Qingxi.
The little witch doesn’t have the mind for this; staying on the altar enjoying incense offerings is enough.
“Temple priests don’t make money, the life of green lights and Buddhas is too lonely.”
Shen Qingxi playfully hugged the shy-faced Nanyun sister, kissed her on the cheek.
“They are still temple priests; this is just occasional side work, a consensual nice affair, right, Qiannahua?”
“Yes.”
Oh wow, it’s unbearable to watch.
Li Mumu covered her face in despair, this woman has completely let herself go.
“I haven’t arranged this kind of project for your husband; this is a private service only our sisters can enjoy, he doesn’t even know about it.”
Shen Qingxi sighed deeply: “I intended good will towards a bright moon, but you took it as donkey’s liver and lungs.”
Oh, shut up!
After the full service of massage, oil bathing, and sauna, the two sat with chilled sweet milk, on the sofa.
It was nice, but Li Mumu hadn’t forgotten the main issue.
“What is the thing you and my husband agreed on?”
“Why are you still bringing up your husband?”
“Do you believe I’ll strip you and throw you out the window right now?”
“You’re really brutal, heartless, cold, and senseless.”
Shen Qingxi took a sip of milk, shrugged: “Actually, I thought of a silly idea.”
“What silly idea?”
“In fact, things like ti travel are generally harder against the current, but if you travel forward, it’s actually not that hard.”
Li Mumu thought for a mont, suddenly realizing.
“Are you talking about hibernation?”
“Yes, we could, if caught by ti whirlpools, end up in a past point in ti; and theoretically, picking a place to take a long sleep could bring us back.”
The premise of this theory is based on having enough technology and lifespan.
Back when our capabilities were low, this issue didn’t need consideration at all.
Now Li Mumu had already twice ascended from Moon Demon to Earth Immortal, although there wasn’t an imdiate system notification of added lifespan, she sensed that lifespan was no longer an issue for her.
Like those ancient mythical creatures in legends, closing eyes and sleeping for decades or centuries seems entirely possible.
The only thing to consider is finding a sufficiently safe place, where you won’t be forcibly awakened halfway through sleep.
“For safe return, first priority is staying on this current world line, not being thrown out. Second is finding a safe enough place; within recorded centuries, nothing major happened there.”
Shen Qingxi whispered into Li Mumu’s ear: “I’ve already found such a place, which is the Heavenly Empress Palace.”
