Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

And if they happened to still be in the Zhedu Sea Area, given Qian Jiyun’s indifferent attitude towards them, it was highly likely he would leave directly, not even bothering to wait for them.

“Then… let’s just go with them, we should also be able to find quite a few medicinal herbs,” someone suggested.

In the end, they had no other choice and had to change their tune.

…

Two “it would be dawn”s later.

An Jiuyue, eyeing her guards behind her, spoke up and asked Su Tang, “Has everyone from the ship already come ashore?”

“If it’s the Princess Consort of the Second Rank’s command, then everyone from the ship has come ashore,” Su Tang replied, puzzled by her question. Initially, he had intended to leave some people on the ship.

In the Zhedu Sea Area, there were many people without ships, and many sought to board other people’s vessels to leave the area, for vessels were often inexplicably damaged here. Once someone arrived, they could not return, and it was quite possible for them to end up living here as wild men for a long time.

Thus, keeping a group of guards to watch the ship was necessary.

But King Qian had explicitly ordered that not a single person should be left on the ship, a directive that Su Tang found somewhat incomprehensible.

“Mm.”

An Jiuyue nodded, raising her hand to stow the ship in her own spatial ability.

However, after a long while, the ship was still there, not yet taken into her space. She turned to look at Qian Jiyun, her face showing displeasure.

Qian Jiyun closed his eyes briefly, then turned and looked at Su Tang with a serious expression.

“Are you certain there’s no one on the ship?” he asked.

The ship could have been placed in his space, but An Jiuyue had said her space was larger, arguing it was better to put it in hers.

Although he didn’t understand why it mattered which space was better for storing a mere ship, he had agreed. But now, he finally realized that indeed, putting it in An Jiuyue’s space was the best option.

His space could take in people, even if someone was on the ship, they could be directly brought into it.

In contrast, it was impossible to do so in An Jiuyue’s space; not even a single person could be brought in. This way, they could better ascertain whether the ship had been thoroughly cleared of people.

Su Tang was startled by his question and turned to look at all the guards behind him.

“Has everyone gathered?” he asked.

“Leader Su, everyone on my side has gathered,” one subordinate responded.

“Leader Su, everyone on my side has also gathered,” another said.

Two guard leaders spoke respectfully towards him. They had already counted everyone early on, even dragging down an infiltrator; there was not a single guard left on the ship.

As for the ship’s former crew, they were also guards, impossible to be somebody else.

“King Qian, indeed, everyone has disembarked from the ship,” Su Tang informed Qian Jiyun.

“What about your side?”

Qian Jiyun turned his cold gaze towards Brother Zheen’s group, inquiring.

“There are only a few of us, no extra people,” Brother Zheen replied directly.

“Qian Jiyun, what’s the matter? Is there still someone on the ship?” Zhan Beiye stepped forward and asked softly, looking at An Jiuyue with some confusion.

“My space cannot take in people,” An Jiuyue explained curtly, her face expressionless.

If she had been trying to take the ship into her space for so long without success, there was only one possibility left: there was someone on the ship, and a very much alive one at that, because she could indeed include dead bodies in her space.
