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

Chapter 1183: Chapter 524: Li Qinghua’s Transformation

Three days later, Little Straw Mountain.

”Mr. Liang, we’ve searched almost all the places we could. Still no sign of Old Ge.” Zhou Qingming sighed helplessly.

Beside Liang Yuan, Han Xiangman couldn’t help but ask, ”How could we not find him? Old Ge is a Flame Superpower User; his strength may not even be easily bested by me.”

Off to the side, Meng Youyou pulled the agitated Han Xiangman aside, whispering a few words to soothe her emotions silently with Spiritual Power.

Two days ago, Li Xiangyang and Ding Yan went back to Yangshan to mainly report they’re safe, and also to transfer some of Yangshan’s personnel to this Mirage Snake Space.

Old Ma was appointed to handle Yangshan’s post-disaster reconstruction and couldn’t make it here.

Instead, he sent his trusted aides, Xue Guohua and Zhai Guofeng, to rush over.

Additionally, Han Xiangman, Meng Youyou, and others were brought here, since Xia Ming and Old Ge initially came to Yangshan following Han Xiangman.

Aside from them, Tang Dechang brought agricultural talents and a team to assist Li Qinghua here with agriculture development.

Because this space is a Floating Island type, Li Qinghua, as its owner, has absolute control.

Thus, not too many people are needed for defense; combat personnel are mostly kept at Yangshan.

Li Qinghua and Liang Yuan discussed, both agreeing that this place could potentially serve as Yangshan’s backyard.

Transferring Yangshan’s plantation, breeding, arms, and medical projects to the Mirage Snake Space.

Yangshan will focus on developing combat troops and commercial trading sites in the future.

After all, being out in the open, Yangshan is too conspicuous, far less hidden than the Mirage Snake Space.

If floods continue to rise and Yangshan and other mountains are submerged, this Mirage Snake Space will become Yangshan’s last hope.

Of course, future matters are hard to predict.

In Liang Yuan’s plan, he intends to find an unclaimed Floating Island eventually and turn it into a main base.

Anyone observant can see, if floods continue to rise like this.

Only by having a Floating Island can you laugh last in this great flood.

However, Liang Yuan never expected, before he found another Floating Island, Li Qinghua had already occupied one.

Moreover, it’s a Spatial Floating Island related to his attribute.

In reality, this Spatial Floating Island is much stronger than regular Floating Islands.

Not only does it not have issues of torrential rain and floods, but it also has a strong hiding capability.

This is because a folded space is not visible to the naked eye.

The only issue might be that this Mirage Snake Space has no sunlight.

Though it’s not much trouble, having Mutated Sunflowers can completely change the ecological environment of this space.

Liang Yuan looked at the anxious Han Xiangman and said, ”Xiangman, things might not be as bad as you believe; perhaps Old Ge found a way to leave this space by accident.”

”Don’t worry, as long as he’s still in this space, we’ll eventually find Little Straw Mountain.”

Han Xiangman, with tears in her eyes, said, ”Sorry, I lost my composure. It’s just that they came with me to Yangshan, and now that Xia Ming is gone, I... I really don’t want to see Old Ge...”

She choked up as she spoke.

Liang Yuan sighed and comforted her with a few words.

Meng Youyou and the others also softly consoled her.

Moments later, Li Qinghua approached with a woman in her thirties.

This woman was the earliest follower, Lin Wan.

The woman skilled in Transformation.

Zhou Qingming and Li Qinghua both addressed her as ’Sister Wan’.

This time, she came to the Mirage Snake Space with the others right away.

And has been staying by Li Qinghua’s side these past few days.

”Mr. Liang, we’ve basically swept through the Mirage Snake Space; the Genetic Mutation Beasts detected total eleven.”

”Nine were hidden underwater; only two were on land.”

”One is located at Yuyang Peak, and the other at Hongjin Bay District.”

Liang Yuan had already captured four or five Genetic Species Level Mutation Beasts over the past two days.

Including that Mutated Giant Crocodile and Mutated Jellyfish.

All the Genetic Mutation Beasts have now been implanted with Parasite Species, enabling him to clearly sense their positions.

Under his violent ’education’, the Genetic Mutation Beasts have obediently surrendered.

Liang Yuan asked, ”The types of remaining Mutation Beasts, what are they?”

Li Qinghua quickly responded, ”Mostly Water Attribute Mutation Beasts; the mutant dog in Hongjin Bay is a Gold Attribute Mutation Beast.”

”The Mutated Bamboo Vine on Yuyang Peak is a Wood Attribute Mutation Beast.”

”Underwater, there are two special Mutation Beasts, one is a Mutated Electric Eel, a rare Thunder Attribute Mutation Beast.”

”Another is Barracuda, an Agility-type Mutation Beast!”

”The rest are all Water Attribute Mutation Beasts.”

Liang Yuan was delighted and said, ”Nice, so many varieties of Mutation Beasts, seems our Yangshan’s Superpower Users are fortunate.”

He also asked, ”How strong are these Mutation Beasts?”

Speaking on this made Li Qinghua somewhat bitterly smile, ”Stronger than me. I checked with Spiritual Ability Glasses, the weakest is the Mutated Crocodile; all others exceed 70 points.”

Liang Yuan laughed and said, ”As expected, the remaining Genetic Species Mutation Beasts, their strength surely exceeds 70 points.”

”Oh? How do you know?” Li Qinghua asked curiously.

”If these Genetic Species Mutation Beasts’ strength was below 70 points, Wu Yaobang would’ve already figured out ways to hunt them.”

”Not sure where his entity is hidden, but once a Genetic Species Mutation Beast is hunted, it’ll surely be secretly sent to his entity to boost strength.”

”I see,” Li Qinghua realized, at the same time frustrated, ”Given the Spiritual Energy richness in Mirage Snake Space, surely many Genetic Species Level Mutation Beasts have been born before; many of these Mutation Beasts likely were hunted by Wu Yaobang.”

”We came too late!”

Li Qinghua thought about these Mutant Beasts, which should have all belonged to him, and now there were only eleven left.

Instantly, he felt like his heart was bleeding.

Liang Yuan laughed, ”Alright, you’ve already struck a big bargain. Wu Yaobang has been here for three months and didn’t realize this was a Floating Island.”

”Otherwise, even if he sacrificed all his clones, he would definitely find a way to catch that Sword-Tail Sea Snake and refine the Heart Core inside it.”

Li Qinghua couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.

This matter indeed worked out very well for him.

Ordinary people really couldn’t sense the existence of a Space Heart Core inside that Sword-Tail Sea Snake.

Only someone like him, a Spatial Superpower User, could have such a keen perception.

In this regard, Liang Yuan had to admire him.

Because even for him, if he had encountered the Sword-Tail Sea Snake, he would at most have killed the creature without realizing it had refined a Heart Core.

After all, even Liang Yuan couldn’t have imagined that such a folded space would be one of the Floating Islands!

In everyone’s understanding, they thought that all Floating Islands were similar to Mist City, a tangible island floating on water.

In fact, all Floating Islands discovered so far are indeed this type.

Whether it’s the Floating Islands discovered by the Three Great Sects or Mist City, they are genuine islands floating on water.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t be called ’Floating Islands.’

”Tell me where the rest of these Mutant Beasts are, and I’ll go handle them one by one.”

Liang Yuan advised him, as currently, only he had the ability to suppress these Genetic Mutation Beasts.

Thus, in the following period, Little Straw Mountain began a booming construction project.

With the addition of personnel from Yangshan, these construction projects were already a familiar task.

Although Little Straw Mountain wasn’t as grand as Yangshan or Meishan, due to the Mirage Snake Space’s low water level, Little Straw Mountain still had a considerable usable area.

In any case, every plan mimicked Yangshan, making things very simple.

Liang Yuan then sped up his pace, subduing all the remaining Genetic Mutation Beasts in just three short days.

Not only that, but he also took some of their essence blood along the way.

This led to these Mutant Beasts becoming weak and completely obedient.

After accomplishing all this, Liang Yuan finally stopped and returned to Little Straw Mountain.

”I’ve already dealt with all the Genetic Mutation Beasts here. They can continue to stay in their original habitat,”

”Whenever we need their essence blood, just extract it once.”

”But be careful not to do it too frequently.”

Liang Yuan advised Li Qinghua.

Li Qinghua smiled bitterly, ”Extracting essence blood is something only you can do. Until my main attribute reaches 70 points, I shouldn’t go.”

Liang Yuan laughed upon hearing this, saying, ”You’ve now mastered the Mirage Snake Heart Chamber, which is filled with Space Blood Crystal resources for you to refine. Reaching 70 points should be quick.”

Li Qinghua immediately laughed, saying, ”I can’t completely rely on Blood Crystals. I still want to cultivate more on my own because I’m afraid excessive reliance on external enhancements will lower my control over my Superpower.”

Liang Yuan patted him on the shoulder, ”It’s good that you have such awareness. Your future achievements won’t be low.”

Li Qinghua sighed and looked back at the busy people below the mountain.

”Mr. Liang, to be honest, I’m actually a shallow person. I’ve never thought about achieving great things.”

”At first, I just wanted to survive.”

”Later, I just wanted to have enough to eat.”

”Until I met you and joined Yangshan, I realized I could do more.”

”I want to have a place to stay amidst this flood of anger and fury.”

”I also want to protect my friends well.”

Liang Yuan laughed upon hearing this, saying, ”No one is born with a great mission.”

”People’s thoughts constantly change.”

”As your ability grows, so does your desire.”

”And naturally, the things you want multiply.”

”Go for it, for in this Flood World, anything is possible now.”

Li Qinghua turned to face Liang Yuan, his expression earnest, ”No matter what, I want to say thank you, Mr. Liang.”

”If you hadn’t shown mercy back then, I know I would have died.”

Liang Yuan waved his hand, interrupting him with a smile, ”It’s just that we hit it off after fighting; everyone is just trying to live well.”

Li Qinghua also laughed, ”Yes, to live well!”

The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling a sense of mutual appreciation as heroes.

Li Qinghua’s mindset changed completely.

From once being captured, to becoming a member of Yangshan and joining the guard team.

Then withdrawing from the guard team, starting the Qinghua Paper Mill—he grew step by step.

Now, he even owned a Floating Island before Liang Yuan.

His achievements in the future will undoubtedly be outstanding.

And he understands that this all started because of Mr. Liang’s mercy years ago.

It’s also because he followed Mr. Liang and joined Yangshan, gradually shaping his approach to dealing with the Flood World.

Otherwise, who knows if he may have become like most survivors—selfish and unscrupulous to achieve his goals.

Mr. Liang, and even the environment of Yangshan, taught him a sense of responsibility called ’protection.’

Teaching him that even in the apocalypse, there is warmth, and he can work alongside a group of like-minded people to persevere, fight, and survive!
