Chapter 517: Chapter 517: The Importance of Science Education

After seeing off Song Taishan and his wife, Xia Xin returned to the side hall only to find Jiangli holding a smartphone, watching a science education channel.

Xia Xin was taken aback. "Ancestor, what are you doing?"

As Jiangli scrolled through the phone, she responded with an expressionless face, "Xia Xin, I now finally understand why your era is cracking down on feudal superstition."

Xia Xin, confused, "Huh?"

Jiangli said, "In your time, there are too many frauds, too many practicing evil cultivation, willing to do anything for money. If people didn’t believe in these things, they wouldn’t end up taking a human life."

Xia Xin: "..."

It seemed to make sense.

Xia Xin walked over and sat down next to Jiangli. "It’s also because in the first few decades, too many believed in these wicked arts, and there were too many swindlers."

Jiangli nodded solemnly and looked at him, declaring with certainty, "Therefore, we must not engage in feudal superstition."

Xia Xin doubted his ears, "Huh? But, we are Xuanmen..."

"Hmm." Jiangli narrowed her eyes slightly, "So, we must practice scientific fortune-telling."

Xia Xin: "??? Science and fortune-telling... What’s the connection???"

Jiangli pointed to the video, "Don’t people here say that the end of science is metaphysics? I actually think there’s some truth to that. Some of your modern technologies can be resolved and explained by metaphysics or a Taoist Doctor. The two might not be mutually exclusive."

Xia Xin still didn’t understand, his small face full of great confusion.

He thought, either he was going crazy, or the ancestor was.

Scientific fortune-telling?

What was this all about?

No one would believe it if it got out.

If it did get out, both the scientific and the metaphysical communities would probably fall silent.

But seeing Jiangli’s confident demeanor, looking quite serious, Xia Xin knew she wasn’t joking.

What else could be said?

One can only pamper their own great ancestor.

Xia Xin braced himself and asked, "So, how do we do this, Ancestor?"

"Am I not watching your scientific teachings?" Jiangli focused on her smartphone screen. "You just wait for me to study your science."

Xia Xin, seeing Jiangli sincerely engrossed in the science channel, was at a loss for words.

Jiangli watched intently, deeply detesting the Chu Family’s actions.

But in the end, it came down to inadequate education and the rampant evildoers.

Therefore, she intended to properly cleanse Xuanmen and also embrace science properly!

Jiangli stared at the science channel, and as she said, many aspects of science could indeed be explained by metaphysics.

What science couldn’t explain, metaphysics could.

For instance, the issue of magnetic fields in science wasn’t far from the concepts of Feng Shui and magnetic fields in Xuanmen.

The layout in architectural design could be explained by science or psychology, but it was also an extension of Feng Shui.

Jiangli thought, there really was potential for research.

Xia Xin kept Jiangli company as she studied for a while, and when Jiangli couldn’t understand something, Xia Xin was able to offer guidance.

In the matter of metaphysics, he was no match for Jiangli.

But, being a modern college student, he could still give guidance on some basic knowledge.

The two studied together for a good while.

At the same time, after leaving Jiaoyang Temple, the Chu Family returned to their own home.

The atmosphere in the entire Chu Household became tense.

Chu Xi first took Zhou Yiran back to her parents’ home, then returned to face his father. He had to make his father apologize to his sister and beg for her forgiveness.

He couldn’t allow his father to have any thoughts of backing down.
