Xianyu only believed half of what Zandar had said.
Seeing his silence, Zandar smiled and took the initiative to give ground.
"It's fine if you don't want to pursue a doctorate."
Using letters left by other geniuses in previous cycles of reincarnation, Zandar could contact them again and gain their trust.
Xianyu, however, was different.
His student acted cautiously. Zandar had no choice but to leave ambiguous information and guide him toward deducing the correct answer.
His purpose in bringing up "Cosmic Genesis" was simple.
First, to make Xianyu waver.
Second, to block off Xianyu's path in advance.
After all, his blood would run dry one day.
Besides, every Xianzhou ship had an enormous population. The Luofu alone had over a hundred billion Xianzhou natives.
Xianyu knew that his flesh and blood were merely a drop in the bucket before such an enormous population.
Rather than giving people fish, his student preferred teaching them to fish.
Xianyu wanted to find someone to research his flesh and blood and solve the problem once and for all.
Zandar would not let that happen.
So he told Xianyu in advance that the Genius Society was swamped with work on "Cosmic Genesis."
At the same time, Zandar offered an option Xianyu would never choose-pursuing a doctorate.
That way, as long as his student remained alive, he could never put his own flesh and blood to use.
After all, in Xianyu's heart, his "homeland" would always matter most.
He would not interfere with the Genius Society's research progress.
He cared about his subordinates' feelings and would not dare give them his flesh and blood to research.
What if my student doesn't want to live? Then we'll just fail one more time.
Next time, it'll probably be Nanook again?
