Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 431 - 333: My Intelligence Was Belittled!

Zhao Yi knew he had made a fool of himself again.

But he couldn’t really be blamed. The Cultivation Realm has as many taboos as there are cow hairs. Zhao Yi had never paid attention to them in the past ten years, and now even if he wanted to catch up, it was too late.

While the two were chatting, the little poison creature had already gnawed all the True Dragon bones.

She still looked unsatisfied, stood up from the ground, and asked expectantly: "Master, where did you pick up those bones? Are there more?"

Zhao Yi nodded: "These bones are all from a True Dragon, where you poisoned earlier. Taotie is over there eating, and it’s been eating for more than half a month. If it hasn’t finished, there should be more!"

Taotie?

The little poison creature’s face changed dramatically, and she said annoyed: "I wondered why I hadn’t seen him for so long. Turns out he secretly hid to eat for free. How disloyal!"

After saying that, she rushed like the wind toward the place where the True Dragon had fallen.

Zhao Yi ignored her and instead looked at Miaoyin Zhenren, asking: "Anything you’ve got going on lately?"

Miaoyin Zhenren sighed and said helplessly: "The New World is just now stabilizing. There are as many issues as there are cow hairs. It’s impossible to sort everything out. So, if you have something, just say so. If it’s not troublesome, I’ll take care of it for you first."

Zhao Yi broke into a sweat: "Thanks for your hard work."

Originally, these were all his responsibilities, but Zhao Yi was used to being lazy and truly didn’t know how to govern, so he handed everything over to Miaoyin Zhenren to handle with full authority.

Miaoyin Zhenren was practically doing all the hard work for Zhao Yi.

"It’s enough that you know I’m having a hard time!" Miaoyin Zhenren wasn’t complaining, though.

Her memory was extraordinary, with a brain running as fast as the supercomputers of Zhao Yi’s previous life, handling daily affairs without breaking a sweat.

Though the problems weren’t hard to solve, they were complicated and numerous, occupying most of her time, which annoyed her greatly.

Zhao Yi chuckled awkwardly and quickly said: "I promise you’ll definitely be interested in this!"

Oh?

Miaoyin Zhenren perked up, asking curiously: "Tell me, what could possibly interest me?"

"Science!" Zhao Yi said seriously.

Science? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Miaoyin Zhenren frowned, her eyes puzzled: "Never heard of it. Whose philosophy is this?"

Zhao Yi pointed upwards with his hand, spurting nonsense: "Knowledge above the void! During the Chaos Storm’s hit on the Little World earlier, I accidentally had a momentary interaction with some consciousness, and then a lot of strange yet familiar knowledge appeared in my mind."

With that, he took out a stack of copied middle school textbooks on math, physics, and chemistry from his mouth, solemnly saying: "This is part of it. I thought you might be interested, so I brought it over for you to take a look."

Sure enough, after hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren’s eyes lit up instantly.

For a super scholar, a brand new philosophy was indeed more pleasing than anything else.

Miaoyin Zhenren took the textbooks and flipped through them. At first, she was indifferent, but as her understanding deepened, her expression gradually turned grave.

A quarter of an hour later, Miaoyin Zhenren had gone through all the books.

"These are indeed some interesting things," Miaoyin Zhenren pondered, "Some theories differ slightly from a cultivator’s understanding, but the basic principles are the same. Especially for ordinary people, if certain things are manufactured, they can greatly facilitate daily life and travel."

Zhao Yi wasn’t surprised at all that Miaoyin Zhenren could see these insights in the textbooks.

In front of him was someone who had diligently memorized every single word of the millions of books at Xuanzhen Temple over a decade.

If Miaoyin Zhenren couldn’t see the mystery in those textbooks, Zhao Yi would find it odd.

Thinking about this, Zhao Yi asked: "How long will it take you to learn everything in there?"

Miaoyin Zhenren didn’t answer but rather asked: "Do you understand all these things?"

Zhao Yi shook his head: "Some of them I can understand, some are vague, and some I can’t understand at all."

Miaoyin Zhenren smirked and asked again: "Is there anything else besides these?"

Something else?

Zhao Yi looked at her, first confused, then his eyes widened: "You learned all of this already?"

Miaoyin Zhenren raised an eyebrow and said: "What else? Did you think I’d need a few days of research for such a little amount?"

Zhao Yi: "...Is she mocking me?"

He put on a straight face and said gruffly: "There are some more difficult ones, but my memory is fuzzy. I’ll have to think it over before I can write them down for you."

Unexpectedly, when Miaoyin Zhenren heard this, she waved her hand and said: "No need to trouble yourself. Just write down everything you remember. As for the correctness of the content, I’ll judge it myself."

Zhao Yi: "...She is definitely mocking me!"

Zhao Yi put on a grumpy face and asked: "Are these things useful?"

Miaoyin Zhenren nodded: "To say they have huge utility is unrealistic. After all, the environment in the world connected to that consciousness is very different from ours. Some theories that can be verified over there simply don’t work here."

"Similarly, some things that seem extremely difficult in that world are easy to obtain in this world! For instance, the so-called periodic table of elements in the chemistry book. Many metals identified as rare and hard to find can be casually discovered in a mountain of minerals in the New World!"

"This also shows that the world connected with that consciousness is likely very small, or it has very little habitable and exploitable resources. Otherwise, why would they be short of so many metals?"

Impressive!

Zhao Yi praised in his heart.

Others might not feel much hearing Miaoyin Zhenren’s words.

But Zhao Yi was different.

He knew the situation on Blue Star, and Miaoyin Zhenren’s guess was entirely correct.

The land area on Blue Star is less than 30%, and there are even fewer places where humans can comfortably live.

Moreover, Blue Star is already resource-poor. Compared to the other major planets in the Solar System, its resource reserves are pitifully small.

The New World is different. The abundant Spiritual Energy and suitable temperatures mean there are almost no hostile environments, and resources are simply too numerous to count.

For Miaoyin Zhenren, who has control over all the resources in the New World, looking down on Blue Star is only natural.

"What do you plan to do?" Zhao Yi asked curiously.

Miaoyin Zhenren thought for a moment and said: "First, I’ll organize some people to mine. The New World is now seriously short of ironware. Many people can only use pottery to cook, which is very inconvenient! Once there’s enough ironware, I’ll try the blast furnace steelmaking mentioned in the books. If it works, I’ll build a few more furnaces to produce some durable steel materials. By then, forging farm tools will make farming much easier!"
