Chapter 4167

Each time a short distance was excavated, Zi Huabai would take the initiative to open a passage to exchange air with Chen Xuan. Xue Wugou and Feng Danxia, however, had been reluctant to open such passages from the start. To save time, they only allowed their miners to dig for the Mother Gold of Life. If they found nothing, they would simply continue digging the tunnel, painfully abandoning any top-tier ores they encountered along the way. Because they lacked the craftsmanship of the Dou clan, any such ores they attempted to extract themselves would be damaged, or else immediately eroded by the profound magnetic force, rendering their efforts futile. Yet, Xue Wugou and Feng Danxia did not want Chen Xuan to acquire what they could not. Their initial refusal to open the connecting tunnels was precisely because they did not want him to see the premium ores on their side and come over to claim them.
