Chapter 4018: Chapter 4037: Family Team Building?

"Doesn’t seem like it."

Ning Xiuzhu shook his head, his eyes puzzled: "If it was one of our people, how could we not discern what kind of distress signal was being sent?"

Lin Chen shrugged: "Well, maybe there are life forms living on that planet."

Ning Xiuzhu replied: "Hard to say. Based on distant observation, this planet doesn’t appear to have life forms, as it lacks some essential conditions for life."

"Of course, if there are some special life forms, that might be possible, but these types of life forms are clearly not of our race."

Lin Chen said decisively, "In that case, let’s go have a look. How do we get there?"

"Take a spaceship, the kind with wormhole shift, otherwise, you’d fly to death and still wouldn’t reach the destination."

Lin Chen asked, "Will many people join the expedition team? If too many people are coming, I can’t guarantee that I can protect everyone, after all, the more people there are, the harder it is to safeguard."

Ning Xiuzhu thought for a moment: "Since you promised to accompany me, just the basic crew will suffice. When the spaceship is far from the target, you can take me alone."

"Your strength is formidable, and with Space Magic Treasure, you can carry various equipment; I can handle their usage."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "No worries, even if manpower is needed, there shouldn’t be any problem, I can settle it."

Understand Avatar Ability?

After arriving at the Federation, Lin Chen had never used Avatar Ability; these people didn’t know Lin Chen had this skill.

Lin Chen didn’t elaborate, as Ning Xiuzhu said, bringing just him wouldn’t be a problem.

No matter the issue or the mighty enemy, wouldn’t running away suffice?

If earlier, Lin Chen had been slightly timid, knowing well that Federation technology included Space Shield Device, but since Ning Xiuzhu had developed a portable waistband that could counter Space Forbidden, what was there to fear?

Lin Chen wasn’t particularly curious about that planet, but felt it wasn’t a problem to protect Ning Xiuzhu on a trip.

Consider it an adventure.

These past two years had been spent leisurely, quite bland for a while, though peaceful and joyful, lacking a bit of passion.

Ning Xiuzhu laughed: "Then there’s no problem. If your schedule is clear, I’ll prepare on my side and we’ll depart in a week."

Lin Chen agreed cheerfully, "Alright!"

Paused for a bit, Lin Chen added, "I’ll go home and see if anyone’s interested. If someone wants to join, they may."

Ning Xiuzhu nodded: "That’s fine."

Ning Xiuzhu wasn’t worried because Lin Chen’s wives were all Heaven Deities, capable of Star Sky Jump, and their strength wasn’t much weaker than Lin Chen. If more people went, encountering any situation would indeed be more reliable.

Listen to Lin Chen’s tone; he clearly doesn’t consider it dangerous, reckoning it’s just a scientific investigation treated as a tourism adventure.

After arranging with Ning Xiuzhu, Lin Chen headed home.

Lin Chen discussed the matter with his family, laughing: "Anyone interested?"

Gu Yuexi raised her hand: "Me, Brother, me, I’m going!"

Lin Chen laughed: "Why so eager?"

Gu Yuexi, looking pitiful, said: "In the past, my strength was too low, wanting to be with you and help you, but my abilities were lacking, only holding you back."

"Although my strength still doesn’t match yours, the gap isn’t as wide. Encountering issues, I shouldn’t be a burden anymore!"

Lin Chen laughed: "Want to go, then go. Anyone else? Anyone who wants to, can treat it as a trip, and if anything’s amiss, we’ll just turn back."

"If we face something formidable, losing is normal, but if we focus on running, no one should catch us."

"This trip shouldn’t be highly dangerous."

Chu Jiaxue asked: "What about that planet, did Dr. Ning mention anything?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "He didn’t elaborate, only mentioned it lacks a normal life form environment, it’s a resource planet; I reckon it’s an ordinary dead planet?"

Shang Wenyin chuckled lightly: "In that case, maybe it’s waterless, I won’t go. If anything happens, it won’t be easy to use my abilities."

Chu Jiaxue laughed: "You’re an Earth God, skilled in Five Elements Escape Technique, you’re the most suitable for exploring planets."

Nalan Wushuang looked around and suddenly laughed: "If no one goes, I’ll go."

Lin Chen agreed: "Want to go, just go, after all, it doesn’t matter what the attribute is, with Sky Wolf Battle Armor on, you have combat power comparable to Level 8, what is there to fear?"

The girls all agreed, pondering that with their current strength, Level 7 Peak martial artists, even without Divine Power, it didn’t matter.

Just chop directly, or activate Sky Wolf Battle Armor, and if still unsuccessful, run!

Upon Lin Chen’s words, Zhuang Susu spoke: "Then I’ll go too."

Chu Jiaxue laughed: "Susu, go ahead, you spend your days cultivating, never stepping out; treat this as a vacation."

Zhuang Susu joined the family later; maybe she felt slightly awkward, though they’re all loving family, her time alone with Lin Chen wasn’t much.

Chu Jiaxue encouraged her to grasp opportunities for more outings with Lin Chen.

Since they’re family, everyone should be happy.

With their long lifespans as Heaven Deities, their concept of time differs from mortals, so issues like wanting to spend every tomorrow sleeping with the husband or jealousy over who spends more time with whom don’t surface.

Seeing no objections from the others, Lin Chen made the decision: "Alright, Yue Yue, Nalan, and Susu, us four will go, let’s prepare a few Sky Wolf Battle Armors. If any situation arises, we can transform into Level 8 Warriors."

All the women nodded, with Chu Jiaxue reminding: "Prepare an extra pair, in case replacements are needed. Out on a trip, if they break, no one will repair them."

Lin Chen found this reasonable; as everyone stays at Jinghai City now, no one will foolishly cause trouble, so leaving two pairs as backups should suffice.

A week later, Ning Xiuzhu’s phone call arrived.

The spaceship was ready.

Since Ning Xiuzhu and Lin Chen confirmed only he would participate in the adventure, the process simplified. The spaceship just had to send them over and wait to fetch them back; Ning Xiuzhu and Lin Chen handle the rest themselves. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Lin Chen and the three arrived at the Science Council, collecting all equipment Ning Xiuzhu prepared into Spatial Ring, and then headed to the shipyard with Ning Xiuzhu.

Although this spaceship wasn’t particularly large, about 200 meters long, there weren’t many crew members, as spaceship manipulation is fully automated.

Lin Chen picked up the watch, laughing: "Let’s take a group photo; it’s our first time on an adventure via spaceship."
