Qin Yiyan's doubts were not without reason.
If it were someone else, it wouldn't matter, but what she heard was that Xu Shi was going to overcome all difficulties and use a lot of manpower and resources to do something that she thought was impossible.
Cleanse the "divine breath"?
How is that possible?!
She wasn't some ignorant little girl; she naturally knew about the "Rust Fog"—it was an extremely dangerous entity!
Before she became a "Chosen One" in her childhood, she and the other children in the monastery were strictly forbidden from contacting related matters. Even after she became a knight commander, she had seen too many cases of people losing their lives because of "divine breath".
Developing "Divine Breath" is like asking a tiger for its skin; this is a generally accepted fact, and even when researching it, people are extremely cautious, let alone anything else.
This is a slide that you absolutely must not touch.
The key question is, what is the significance of removing "rust fog"? How long has "rust fog" existed? Not only have people long been accustomed to it, but many technologies and things in life are also closely related to "rust fog".
If one day, "rust fog" suddenly disappears from people's lives, will the consequences necessarily be good?
I'm afraid many established conventions will be broken, wouldn't that be a step backward?
That's why she felt this was a thankless task, and she felt it was something that someone like Xu Shi couldn't do—if he really had that ability, becoming an oligarch would be more likely, wouldn't it?
"What's there to be reluctant about?"
Xu Shi's answer was nonchalant, showing no concern for her doubts.
"You should know that your Holy Maiden and the people behind her are doing the same things. Why can they do it, but I can't?"
To be fair, Xu Shi was quite discerning. The Holy Maiden was the Holy Maiden, and the good daughter Xu Ying was Xu Ying. Although they were still in the same physical form, their inner selves were completely different.
But he also knew that Qin Yiyan's loyalty had always been to the Holy Maiden, the "Observer" of "Heavenly Principles," and he still held onto the idea that she would one day return to normal.
However, he had no interest in arguing with the other party about such matters, and that didn't stop him from doing his own thing.
Clearing away the "rust fog" is certainly a long and arduous task, but the reality is that if we want to overturn the "natural order," we must take action against the "rust fog."
Or perhaps they should just let it go, shut themselves off and do their own thing, and wait until the concentration of the "rust fog" becomes completely uncontrollable, at which point "natural law" might collapse on its own.
But this wouldn't benefit Xu Shi himself either; a lose-lose situation was never his preferred option.
And if we really wait like this, who knows when it will be? It's hard to say whether he'll even live to see that day.
Of course, what the red-haired silly girl said wasn't wrong either. Clearing the "rust fog" is also a long road. Just because we've made a start today doesn't mean the sky will be blue and the grass will be green tomorrow. It might take ten or even several decades.
The only difference might be that one is proactive and the other is reactive.
To be honest, Mr. Xu considers himself a relatively passive person. Didn't you see that the girls all came to him on their own? He only accepted them out of helplessness.
But if it's "natural law," he'd rather take the initiative. They've controlled him long enough; it's time to turn the tables and become the master.
As for the consequences of the disappearance of the "rust fog"... he didn't really care.
Firstly, this process will not happen overnight, and the advantages he currently possesses will not change for a long time.
Secondly, he was only targeting the "rust fog" atmosphere above the dome. The seawater corroded by the "rust fog" and the mutated "rust fog" ores were not in his consideration for the time being. If he really included these in the plan, it would not be a matter of ten or twenty years, but a matter of moving mountains like the Foolish Old Man.
and.
"I don't know if Miss Qin has considered this issue."
He asked with interest, "Do you think the existence of 'Rust Fog' is a normal thing in its origin?"
The answer is clearly no.
He had read the historical records of the Hualan Empire and the Night Sin City. Although the two were not entirely the same, they still had some commonalities.
For example, "rust fog" is by no means a natural phenomenon.
The planetarium that preserves the "quill pen" is a good example, and historical records from various places also provide evidence in this regard.
However, the "rust fog" has existed for quite some time, which is why people have gradually forgotten about it, and many people are even unaware of this secret.
Xu Shi didn't have the mind to dwell on the origin of the "rust mist" for the time being, but for this acquired, poisonous existence, even though he couldn't do without it along the way, he had to admit that the appearance of the "rust mist" was mostly a mistake.
Even mistakes that bring benefits are still mistakes in essence.
"So, isn't it great that I'm willing to be the one to correct my mistakes?"
He said shamelessly, "Why don't you hurry up and thank Chairman Xu?"
"..."
Qin Yiyan was not very eloquent to begin with, and she had no idea how to refute his barrage of questions.
I don't really feel like he's that noble, but what he says seems to make a lot of sense.
Moreover, Xu Shi is right about one thing: she is not unaware of the "principles of heaven"—she already knows about them and that what Xu Shi is doing is also what the "principles of heaven" is doing, only in a different way.
If that's the case, then Xu Shi's actions are indeed beyond reproach.
