I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 2000 - 1350: Do They Dare to Gamble? (Part 3)

Chapter 2000: Chapter 1350: Do They Dare to Gamble? (Part 3)

"How much time do we have left?" In Qi Xiangyun’s courtyard, the Medicine Goddess basked in the sun contentedly, her belly already slightly rounded.

Though the feeling of having a child was strange to her, it wasn’t entirely unacceptable, since the child’s father was a beautiful ’girl’.

This actually made her anticipate it greatly, and she had already obtained what she wanted.

Youth, not the kind maintained through manufactured medicine, but through a complete restoration to a youthful state. She no longer needed those Immortal elixirs that, even after extensive refinement, still made people nauseous.

Especially as she aged, the frequency of using the Immortal elixir constantly increased. Any medicine would inevitably cause some harm to the body, which she could mitigate but not entirely eliminate.

Now she felt even more that being young was wonderful. At the age of eighteen, tasks that once seemed daunting now felt entirely achievable.

Take her research on medicine, for instance. Her younger self and her older self were in completely different states, not because her younger self necessarily surpassed the older.

The biggest difference between the two was mindset. Her older self was too focused on quick success when researching medicine, because she didn’t have much time left and was always eager to produce results as quickly as possible.

But with a completely youthful body, her mindset was different. Being young, she had ample time to do what she wanted, and by slowing down she could naturally see more.

"Plenty of time." Qi Xiangyun knew the other was asking about the potential war.

More than two months of time had diluted the shadow of war with academic atmospheres, and some people were beginning to slack off.

"What... what will our descendants eventually become?"

"That will depend on your education in the future."

"Heh, that sounds quite irresponsible." The Medicine Goddess chuckled lightly, more accepting of this answer. Tianhe people were Tianhe people, but the child was hers.

After regaining her youth, her mentality indeed changed, for she had obtained what she most desired, leaving her in the long years ahead with something better to cherish.

She had many disciples, but there was still a gap between a disciple and a child who could become her disciple.

Moreover, most of those disciples belonged to the ’Outer Disciples’. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"After the War Hundred Clans ends, Tianhe will open up communication with the outside world; you can go to Tianhe if you wish."

"Let’s wait for that time to come." The Medicine Goddess didn’t give a definitive answer. She indeed yearned for Tianhe, but after having a child, her longing for Tianhe became more conservative.

She wanted to learn more about Tianhe, and only after sufficient understanding would she consider whether to act on that longing.

Not just for herself, but also for her child.

Qi Xiangyun nodded, glancing at Mo Hui’s gently caressed belly. Although her child was the result of a ’transaction’, Mo Hui did develop real feelings as a result.

And all this was not accidental, it was deliberate, and the Heart Demon Tribulation was enough to screen out people like Mo Hui.

They indeed needed special natives to explore the Thunderstorm Land, but never intended for them to become mere tools in the long run.

They desired entities akin to Xiyun.

Even if this plan required a delay of more than a decade to fully unfold, it was for future preparation, they couldn’t afford to wait until after the war ends.

Being too conservative then would waste a tremendous amount of time!

If nothing unexpected occurred in the future, Qingtian Star would become the base for Tianhe on this side, even if it wasn’t suitable as a base.

As long as he was here, no one would object. On the contrary, those aware of this would actively design plans on how to smoothly position Qingtian Star in a suitable location.

However, these were plans for the future, as Zheng Yichen was crucial, but solving the war remained the priority.

They currently had no capability to enter the Thunderstorm Land for a thorough exploration, with war being the most pressing concern, yet they wouldn’t cease efforts to explore the Thunderstorm Land.

As long as they seized the opportunity, during moments of calm in the Thunderstorm Land, they could attempt further enforced explorations.

A period of ten thousand years might be within their endurance, but if fortune favored them and that timeframe reduced below ten thousand years... let’s hope for that.

For now, they must first solve the imminent war, and the spaceship accompanying them here wasn’t just for supporting research activities, but also served as a satellite.

With its powerful concealment, the spaceship monitored the Hundred Clans dynamics approaching this planet.

During the two plus months, Qi Xiangyun and the others uncovered numerous spies from the War Hundred Clans, who attempted to covertly infiltrate the Qingtian Continent.

Unbeknownst to them, they were exposed upon arrival, and after sending their first message, Liu Hongzhao and the others purged them using a super intelligent network to interfere with their communication equipment, continuously releasing false information.

But no matter how they stalled, two plus months was already the limit.

The War Hundred Clans had dispatched a new fleet approaching. When transmitting false information, they didn’t overly manipulate the action times.

Engaging in such deception would only alert the War Hundred Clans.

With a new fleet dispatched here, Liu Hongzhao and the others could intercept it, completely crushing the new fleet while delivering false intelligence that could compel the War Hundred Clans to divert sufficient forces.

If those forces perished on Qingtian Star, it would place the War Hundred Clans in a precarious situation, and their cannon fodder wouldn’t last long.

Cannon fodder still required high-level forces to support. If a portion of their forces were destroyed on Qingtian Star, could they dispatch even more forces?

To deploy more forces, they must exceed the strength of the current ones, or they’d face the same fate. After devoting such forces, would there be any remaining for the frontline?

They might abandon the frontline, but was a yet-unexplored exploration planet worth such a gamble for the War Hundred Clans? Especially as their preparations for a last stand neared completion.

Abandoning the frontline at this juncture would make all preparations futile, and though forces might be preserved, consolidating them would deplete the War Hundred Clans.

Returning them wouldn’t refund the full value, giving up equated to accepting decline.

Would the War Hundred Clans dare to gamble?
