Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 547: Chapter 232: Cooperation?_3

”Damn it, last time we treated them so well, how could they do this?”

”That’s right, last time everyone agreed to help each other in times of trouble.”

”Wu Meng is such a jerk, saying one thing and doing another!”

Everyone cursed in anger, clearly disgusted by such behavior.

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, ”The people from the Martial King Pavilion were already being polite. Otherwise, they would have just come and threatened us directly, not talk about cooperation.”

”However, their so-called negotiation is basically a threat.”

”This mining area is indeed a big cake that everyone wants a piece of. If we’re not strong enough, we will definitely be put in a passive position and become the target of everyone.”

Liang Yuan still admired Wu Meng. The man was a combat genius.

He believed that if it were up to Wu Meng alone, he wouldn’t do such things.

But taking care of his family, there were many decisions that weren’t his alone to make.

Liang Yuan guessed that someone around him must have instigated him to do this.

Liang Yuan asked, ”Did they say how we would cooperate? If we are to mine the area together, how will the profits be divided?”

He got straight to the point of this so-called cooperation.

The issue was the distribution of interests!

If he could use profits to bind the Martial King Pavilion, making them as close as family, Liang Yuan didn’t mind making some concessions.

He agreed with Wu Meng’s philosophy that only through cooperation could everyone win.

He needed manpower and more people to help him catch fish and earn Points.

So if it could be avoided, it was better not to fight.

Once they fought, if people died, it would be a waste of human resources.

He couldn’t bear to see that because these people, in his eyes, were future laborers to help him earn Points.

However, Zhao Kai’s next words made Liang Yuan’s face darken.

”Brother Liang, they want a 70-30 split. They get 70% of the mined Superpower Stones and have the priority to select the ore!”

Liang Yuan’s expression turned grim as he looked up at Zhao Kai: ”Is that what he said?”

Fuming, Zhao Kai said, ”Yes, we were all there at the time, and I was almost ready to fight!”

Liang Yuan said coldly, ”Did you ask him if it was his idea or Wu Meng’s idea?”

Zhao Kai said, ”I did. He said it was the idea of their Martial King Pavilion.”

”Based on our current strength, this is the best share they’re offering.”

”Basically, he thinks we are only worth 30%, and that’s only because, Brother Liang, you could take a punch from Wu Meng’s Third Blood and Flesh Form!”

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh, though there was no humor in his eyes.

”Hah, is this cooperation? This is like the Eight-Nation Alliance forcing Empress Dowager Cixi to sign a humiliating treaty.”

His gaze turned cold, and anger burned in his heart.

In the Fire Bamboo Forest, when he fought Wu Meng, he was indeed impressed by Wu Meng’s strength.

But that didn’t mean Liang Yuan lacked the strength to go toe-to-toe with Wu Meng.

He still had unused Skill Beads at the time.

The Green Skill , although not fully comprehended then, could be used directly with the Skill Bead.

If he had used Puppet Threads, he believed that no matter how strong Wu Meng was, he definitely wouldn’t have been a match for him.

He was just reluctant to waste the energy in the Skill Bead, afraid that too frequent use would destroy it, just like the Turtle Shell before.

Little did he know that in Wu Meng’s eyes, it became him barely withstanding Wu Meng’s punch?

In the following days, he was inspired by Wu Meng and delved deeper into the Superpower of Evolution.

Not only did he evolve Super Healing, but his resilience and Fist Force also saw significant improvement.

His attributes had grown again, and he successfully mastered two new Skills.

He didn’t even know how strong he was now.

These people from the Martial King Pavilion dared to use his strength as leverage to negotiate cooperation!

Liang Yuan found it almost funny.

He stood up directly and said, ”If he comes again, tell him that I, Liang Yuan, refuse to cooperate with them.”

”If they really want a piece of this cake, let them come and get it!”

”At that time, don’t blame me for not considering old friendships.”

”My fists will knock their teeth out!”

His face was cold, and anger flickered in his eyes.

Did they really think he, Liang Yuan, was made of mud?

So what if there were three major shelters?

Would he be afraid?

This upcoming Sea Tide would bring countless underwater Mutant Beasts ashore, and the mountains and forests would be teeming with them!

He, Liang Yuan, wouldn’t just hide in a cave!

This Sea Tide was also his hunting ground!

After the Sea Tide, he believed his Points would see an explosive increase!

When the time came, how terrifying would his strength be after drawing new Attribute Points and Skills?

Even he didn’t know!

Zhao Kai was also inspired by his boldness and couldn’t help saying, ”Damn it, next time he comes, I’ll slap the crap out of that bastard. How dare he, after I served him two bowls of rice last time!”

Song Wen was relatively calmer, unable to help but speak up, ”Brother Liang Yuan, won’t this strong response be too aggressive? The profit division should still be negotiable. The way they’re putting it should give room for negotiation.”

Her words were relatively rational.

But Liang Yuan didn’t care, sneering, ”So I should thank them?

”Hmph, I was willing to accommodate them initially, but now it seems I’ll have to flex some muscle to get them to talk properly.”

”Since cooperation isn’t working, let’s forget about it.”

”Once I deal with all three of them, I’ll be the only one to call the shots in Yangshan!”

This time, Liang Yuan was truly determined.

He could be generous to his subordinates, offering concessions as appropriate.

But towards other rulers, he had to crush them and seize their territories to better manage his own!

The only thing to watch out for was to kill the leaders and not harm civilian laborers!

To achieve this, he had to elevate his strength to an overwhelming level!

”Points!”

”I need lots of Points!”

”This Sea Tide, I must take the initiative to hunt down enough Mutant Beasts!”

Liang Yuan’s eyes sparkled with determination; success or failure would be decided after this Sea Tide!
