Chapter 50 - 50 Family's Reaction



Upon seeing the message, Lu Hao understood what Su Jin meant; it seemed that the family already knew, but he wasn’t worried. He trusted that Su Jin would handle it well.

The reality was indeed as he expected, no one in the family wanted to stay in the space to avoid the apocalypse forever.

“Although I also think this space is great and that it will make things a lot easier for us, I agree with everyone else. Hiding here is only a temporary solution, not a permanent one,” Lin Cheng stated.

“Right, Xiao Jin, we, the Lin family, are not cowards,”

Lin Tianzhen unexpectedly acted magnanimously.

“Yeah, Su Jin, we’ve been preparing for the apocalypse for so long; you wouldn’t want us to just hide here forever, would you? I still want to go out there and make a name for myself,” Lin Xiuyuan said eagerly.

“Alright, you Lin lad, ambitious indeed, haha,” Nie Qing laughed upon hearing the words ‘make a name for myself’, much more ambitious than his own disciple.

“Xiao Jin, you’ve heard everyone’s opinion; what do you think?” Li Xiuying asked. She was very pleased with the family’s attitude, even Mao Qiqi didn’t mention wanting to hide here but rather wanted to be with everyone else.

“Grandma, I understand everyone’s feelings, and I’m relieved that our family doesn’t want to settle for comfort. In fact, I feel the same. The apocalypse is too unstable; our own strength is the true power. But Grandma, I hope you and Grandpa will stay in the space,” Su Jin said while watching the expressions of the two elderly people.

Li Xiuying and Lin Yunguo were both around 65 years old, an age that should be protected wherever they are. Even if they were outside the space, everyone wouldn’t want the elderly to take risks, so they might as well stay in the space. Moreover, the spiritual energy and the slow flow of time inside the space were also very beneficial for the elderly.

Lin Yunguo sighed in relief. He wasn’t worried about his own safety but had been concerned lately that he and his wife were becoming a burden to everyone. If it was really possible to live here, then staying inside would also be a great help to everyone.

“Grandma, Grandpa, think about it, you can be our logistics personnel here, there’s electricity and water. You will take care of our meals from now on. And if you are here, you can also act as our backup,” Su Jin consoled, worried that the elderly might overthink.

“You kid, what do you mean by backup?” Li Xiuying was amused by Su Jin.

“Grandma, let’s say one day we split up and someone gets lost, we can come here to relay information to you, and then you can pass it on to the others. Lu Hao is directionally challenged, I’m telling you, he can’t find his way anywhere, one time right in our neighborhood…”

Su Jin was emphasizing the importance of their staying in the space, unaware that Lu Hao, who had left work early after receiving her message, had walked in behind her. The wife calls, and how could he not respond? What he didn’t expect was to find his own wife talking behind his back…

The family desperately gave Su Jin meaningful glances, and Lu Guanhai even tugged at her clothes, indicating she should not continue. What if their son blew his top? He couldn’t be of much help then.

“Xiao Jin, who were you saying couldn’t find north?” Lu Hao walked over, draped his arm around Su Jin’s shoulder, leaned his head into her shoulder, and asked with a smile.

Su Jin awkwardly turned her head to the side. How did this guy just waltz right in?

“Ah haha, Xiao Hao, Xiao Jin was talking about how if any of us ever get lost, we can come here to transmit location information,” Lu Guanhai explained urgently, hoping his son and daughter-in-law wouldn’t start arguing.

“Hmm, that’s a good idea, Grandma and Grandpa, we need you two in the space,” Lu Hao stated directly.

“Okay, okay, you kids, don’t worry about us. We’d rather stay in here,” Li Xiuying said with a laugh. She had always known what Lin Yunguo had been worried about lately. If it weren’t for her knowledge about the existence of the space, she would have been as worried about being a burden as Lin Yunguo. Now, everything in the space was a plus, and providing logistical support for the family was something they were more than happy to do.

Seeing that Grandpa and Grandma agreed wholeheartedly, the family also let go of their anxiety. They too were worried about the elderly suffering in the apocalypse. Now, they could fight with peace of mind outside.

“There’s one more thing,” Su Jin said seriously.

“About the space, I hope everyone guards it as if protecting their own lives. We absolutely cannot let others know about it, or it would put us all in danger,”

She wasn’t joking. In the apocalypse, there was a laboratory backed by higher-ups that specialized in studying Special Ability Users. If they found out about a space with access in and out, the consequences were imaginable.

Moreover, with Grandma and Grandpa inside the space, along with all their supplies and weapons, if it was exposed to others, not only would the elderly be in danger, but also all the supplies they had painstakingly gathered.

“Xiao Jin, we all understand, even if you didn’t mention it,” Huang Yunxiang said. She understood the greed of human nature best. She would never reveal the existence of the space; after all, it was their family’s lifeline.

“Yes, I must protect the secret of the Space with my life. My grandparents are still inside, I absolutely cannot let anyone else know,” Lin Xiuyuan said.

“Xiao Jin, don’t worry, only our family can know about the Space,” Lin Tianhui also said.

“That, Xiao Jin, I have a method, but I’m not sure if I should speak of it,” Nie Qing said hesitantly, thinking that if so many people need to keep it a secret, there was only one method that was foolproof.

“Uncle Nie, please, speak,”

Nie Qing was a successor of Qimen Dunjia and well-versed in ancient texts; Su Jin also wanted to hear his opinion.

“Our sect once had a technique that can make a person forever unable to speak of something, but…”

“Come on, come on, Old Nie, what is this immortal technique? Quickly cast it on me,”

Lu Guanhai was very excited upon hearing this. He wasn’t so much worried about others guarding the secret of the Space; he was worried about himself. He had never intended to share his own savings with Liu Meifang, but his loose tongue, in a moment of joy, betrayed him and he mentioned it to the other party. He regretted it immensely afterward, but words once spoken cannot be taken back like water spilt!

“Master, but what? Are you confident in this technique?” Lu Hao felt it was better to ask clearly first. He was cautious about techniques that might harm everyone.

“I am sure of it, but this technique is actually a prohibition that requires the person under the prohibition to willingly keep this secret. Once effective, there is no way to cancel it,”

Meaning that once the prohibition was cast, the secret would remain a secret forever; for a lifetime and even longer, no one could reveal it to others.

Su Jin went silent. It was a good method, but it also meant that they could never speak to anyone else about the Space again.

“It’s no problem at all, if we can’t speak of it, so be it. Uncle Nie, just cast it on me,” Lin Xiuyuan felt this method was entirely beneficial, as it would guard the secret and ensure everyone’s safety, no need to hesitate.

“I’m willing,”

“I am willing too,”

“Go ahead and cast it on me, Brother Nie,”

“I want it too, Grandpa Nie,”

Seeing that everyone present was willing to guard the secret of the Space, Su Jin and Lu Hao were not unmoved; once the prohibition was established, the secret of the Space might just remain with them, but this was indeed the safest method.

“Xiao Jin, you don’t have to undergo this prohibition,” Lu Hao said, holding Su Jin’s hand.

“Yes, Xiao Jin, if you are also under the prohibition, then who will bring my dear grandson here in the future?” Lu Guanhai also considered this issue.

“…”

“That’s true, the in-law is right, how did we not think of that? Not all of us need to be put under the prohibition, just leaving one person should suffice,” Lin Tianhui said, slapping his thigh.

“Xiao Jin, leave room for maneuver, you’re the owner here, we all trust you,” Li Xiuying spoke up.

The family then all agreed, considering that Su Jin was the owner of the Space, and they were willing to trust her.

“That’s okay too, girl, do you agree?” Nie Qing watched this family with admiration, willing to forsake their own interests to ensure the safety of one another, something not everyone could do.

“I… am willing,” Su Jin answered.

She was just struggling with how to make everyone believe she wasn’t agreeing for her future child.
