Since the Thompson Family of three were guests, they chatted leisurely in the cabin with Elder Jefferson while supplies were being sorted on board. Aside from not wanting the guests to lend a hand, it was also crucial to prevent them from estimating how many resources were stocked.
After all, the Thompson Family of three wouldn't idle around and boast about how much supplies they carried with them. Therefore, when Family Li saw Dong Tianyu easily store the Companion Spiritual Treasure back into his Sea of Consciousness, they assumed he hadn't brought out his original supplies when they fled the base.
At that time, leaving the Thompson Family of three behind was also driven by goodwill, as the disaster had just ended not long ago. Acquiring resources was more challenging than when the natural disaster had initially struck. The best way to obtain supplies now was through merging with the Mysterious Ship's created Mysterious Realm.
