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

Chapter 1257 - 591: Zhang Wenjing and the Dove Faction

”What’s the current situation?”

Liang Yuan asked.

”It’s very difficult. We’ve completely lost contact with the top leadership.”

Zhang Wenjing said gravely, ”It’s not just us. Based on our estimates, it should be the same everywhere around the globe now.”

”I fear we are all in a state of anarchy, with each major military district and base having to fend for themselves, striving to guard their respective areas.”

”On Cangqiong Mountain, the first Celestial Abyss appeared right where Cloud Mist Island is located.”

”We’re all stationed on Cloud Mist Island now, with most of our military forces tied up here, leaving us unable to attend to the outside situations.”

”Even in such circumstances, some people refuse to obey leadership, ambitiously seeking dominance of their own.”

Liang Yuan glanced at her and said, ”Are you referring to Yuan Shijie and his Hawk Faction?”

Zhang Wenjing nodded, ”Yes.”

”Then what’s the deal with the Three Great Sects? Why are you involved with the Water God Sect?”

Zhang Wenjing sighed and said, ”In these apocalyptic times, there are never a shortage of ambitious people among humans.”

”It’s no surprise to us that they could create such heretical sects.”

”But we really don’t have the energy to manage it. Fortunately, even though Yuan Shijie has different beliefs from us, he equally won’t tolerate such heresies under his nose.”

”All along, we could only let Yuan Shijie engage in battle with the Three Great Sects, maintaining a superficial balance.”

”During this process, we strive to cultivate more superpower users, attempting to solve the problems of the Celestial Abyss and the Abyss.”

”The leader of the Water God Sect, named Pei Yuanhu, is a Spirit Ability User.”

”His ability is quite peculiar, allowing him to disperse his Spiritual Power to parasitize other creatures.”

”This is of great use to us in exploring the situation in the sky, so prior to this, our brigade commander Feng Jiangong personally took action to capture him.”

”To save his life, Pei Yuanhu agreed to cooperate with us, but on the condition that his Water God Sect must be preserved.”

”So I ask, Mr. Liang, in any case, to temporarily spare his brain core, as a favor to our military.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan showed a cold expression and said, ”Such a person, you let him freely establish a heretical sect outside? And now you still want to protect him?”

Zhang Wenjing said helplessly, ”It’s not like before now; anarchy prevails, and superpower users reign supreme.”

”Any powerful superpower user wants to establish their own power. Even without Pei Yuanhu, someone else would come out to establish the Water God Sect.”

”You’ve also seen the situation with the Earth Mother Sect and the Spiritual Ability Sect.”

”They have no relation to our military, but didn’t they also emerge?”

Liang Yuan made no comment and said, ”Because their leaders are of no use to you, they’re not within your recruitment scope, so you don’t care about their fate?”

Zhang Wenjing shook her head, ”We naturally hope that humanity can coexist peacefully, working together to face this catastrophe.”

”But the hardest thing to unify in this world is human hearts. A hundred people could have a thousand different thoughts.”

”We can only try to win over the majority.”

”Pei Yuanhu is willing to cooperate with us, so at least the Water God Sect remains within our view and can be somewhat restrained by us.”

Liang Yuan suddenly laughed, ”So, when the Water God Sect invaded Yangshan in the past, you were aware of it too?”

Zhang Wenjing’s expression immediately changed, and she explained, ”Mr. Liang, don’t misunderstand. At that time, we had also advised Pei Yuanhu.”

”It was precisely because of our advice that Pei Yuanhu didn’t directly attack Yangshan but instead used proselytizing and disease to gradually invade, without causing significant harm to the Yangshan population.”

Liang Yuan laughed coldly, ”So I should be grateful to you then?”

Zhang Wenjing realized that saying these things was indeed of no use. She considered for a moment and said, ”Mr. Liang, your strength has been recognized by us. We sincerely want to invite you to join us now.”

”Our enemies should not be humans themselves, but those extraterrestrial species in the sky.”

Liang Yuan nodded, ”You’re right, but that’s no reason for me to swallow my anger and let others bully me.”

”This Pei Yuanhu, since he dared to attack Yangshan, he should be prepared for me to kill him.”

”There’s no reason for him to invade unsuccessfully, kill my people, and then expect forgiveness when I strike back.”

”I’m sorry, I can’t do that. Even for the greater good you mentioned, I will never compromise with such people!”

As he spoke, Liang Yuan raised his hand and clenched it hard!

Boom!

A mist of blood exploded, and a terrifying wave of air swept through, instantly turning the last brain in his hand into a pile of flesh!

Seeing this, Zhang Wenjing’s face immediately changed dramatically.

”You—”

The flames on her body suddenly surged, flaring up several feet high.

Liang Yuan glanced coldly at her, his internal aura surging, and a chill instantly arose.

”What, do you want to avenge him?”

Facing Liang Yuan’s glare, Zhang Wenjing suddenly felt an invisible pressure envelop her.

In an instant, the Flame Superpower surging on her body weakened by several notches!

Her expression turned unpleasant, and her pretty face showed an indecisive look.

”Hu—”

After taking a deep breath, she exhaled, ”Mr. Liang, I’ve tried to mediate. If Pei Yuanhu goes mad later and starts launching crazy attacks on the top of Yangshan, don’t blame me then.”

Liang Yuan sneered, ”Is he dead?”

Yet from the pile of flesh, a point of spiritual light floated out, then shot rapidly towards the outside of the Miyuan Rainforest.

Without a doubt, it was exactly the spiritual split thought of Pei Yuanhu that Zhang Wenjing had mentioned.

Swish!

Liang Yuan instantly soared into the sky, directly chasing after the spiritual split thought.

With a wave of his hand, a twisted spatial gate appeared in the void ahead.

Zhang Wenjing urgently shouted, ”Mr. Liang, stop!”

She reached out to grab Liang Yuan, but in the next moment, the spatial gate warped open, and the spiritual split thought was immediately sucked into it.

Liang Yuan reached out, the Sumeru Space closed, turning into a beam of azure light, falling into his hand.

It was precisely the Sumeru Ring!

Putting away the ring, Liang Yuan turned back to look at the approaching Zhang Wenjing, curling his lips, ”Let him come to see me in person, otherwise I have my own ways to meet him through this strand of split mind!”

Zhang Wenjing paused in the air, staring at Liang Yuan, and couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

”Mr. Liang, let’s discuss this properly. It was Pei Yuanhu who was in the wrong first; naturally, he should apologize to you and Yangshan.”

”Our military is willing to mediate, can you try not to harm this split mind?”

Liang Yuan said nothing in response—apologize?

Back when Yangshan was getting beaten, he didn’t see the other side come out to mediate.

So, despite how lofty Zhang Wenjing made military actions sound, Liang Yuan was not interested.

He was the victim, considering the bigger picture was one thing, but there was no reason for him and Yangshan to be sacrificed just to appease another superpower user.

”Let him come to me, otherwise there’s nothing to discuss.”

”And now this Miyuan Rainforest also belongs to me. Miss Zhang, you have no objection to this, do you?”

Zhang Wenjing opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say for a moment.

A floating island, of immense value, priceless.

Even though Zhang Wenjing was the daughter of Zhang Yujiang, she couldn’t make such a huge decision.

Liang Yuan had no intention of considering her stance. The Miyuan Rainforest was something he conquered, storming in alone, and single-handedly destroying the Water God Sect.

If the Miyuan Rainforest wasn’t his, whose could it be?

He wasn’t worried about anyone else coming to claim the Miyuan Rainforest; if someone dared to attempt, they would be killed.

”May I ask, does the heart core and brain core of the Miyuan Rainforest still remain in Pei Yuanhu’s hands?” Liang Yuan asked.

Zhang Wenjing hesitated slightly, then nodded: ”Yes.”

Liang Yuan smiled: ”That’s good, make sure he comes to see me.”

Having said this, he elevated himself, flying towards the outside of the Miyuan Rainforest, while saying: ”Miss Zhang, I’m going to the Earth Mother Sect now, do you want to come?”

Zhang Wenjing’s mouth twitched slightly for a moment but finally, her form transformed into a blaze, following suit.

The two shot through the air together, Zhang Wenjing asked: ”Mr. Liang, do you also want to take down the Yellow Earth Divine Origin of the Earth Mother Sect?”

”What, have the people of the Earth Mother Sect also been enlisted by you?”

Zhang Wenjing shook her head: ”No, the Earth Mother Sect is jointly governed by the three divine offices, but in terms of military power, it’s controlled by Shi Lianhai of the Fertile Soil Department, and in terms of administration, it’s managed by Guan Maocai.”

”These two could be considered the real leaders of the Earth Mother Sect. Shi Lianhai’s Earth Attribute Superpower isn’t weak, but it’s not considered rare either.”

The implication naturally being, not enough for their Dove Faction Military to abandon their principles to recruit.

With this said, Pei Yuanhu’s abilities from the Water God Sect seemed even more unique.

Liang Yuan glanced at her, asking: ”What’s so special about Pei Yuanhu that attracts you so much?”

”His abilities are too unique; split mind parasitism, a special spirit-type superpower, can parasitize into the minds of any other species and integrate, while the main spirit can constantly receive all visual and auditory information from the split mind.”

”We know about the situation behind Celestial Abyss all because he provided a lot of intelligence.”

Liang Yuan asked: ”That mutant octopus with three brains, what’s that all about?”

”That’s an experimental subject of Pei Yuanhu, he captured the egg of a Celestial Abyss creature [Skyfeed Bird] and an Abyss creature [Three-brained Centipede Squid].”

”Then he attached one of the Three-brained Centipede Squid’s heads to the Skyfeed Bird egg, which hatched a head, and parasitized his split mind.”

”This resulted in the Tide Main Brain you saw.”

Liang Yuan was speechless: ”What does he want to do?”

”Create a powerful mutant beast, as you saw, this Tide Main Brain possesses terrifying spiritual power, capable of brainwashing ordinary people effortlessly.”

”He explained to us that he wanted to utilize the abilities of the Tide Main Brain to try to control groups of mutant creatures and counterattack towards the floating island behind Celestial Abyss.”

Zhang Wenjing explained.

Liang Yuan was speechless: ”Do you believe that too?”

Zhang Wenjing smiled: ”Why not? Hasn’t he already established the Water God Sect?”

”You’ve seen the behavior of those Water God Sect followers too.”

Hearing this, Liang Yuan took a deep look at Zhang Wenjing.

”Seems like you all aren’t opposed to such things.”

”What Pei Yuanhu has been doing is also an experiment of yours, isn’t it?”

Zhang Wenjing immediately denied: ”It has nothing to do with us, it’s all done by Pei Yuanhu.”

”But you allowed it by default.”

”We’re just in a cooperative relationship with Pei Yuanhu, we can’t command him to do anything.”

Liang Yuan chuckled coldly, not wanting to waste more words.

The Dove Faction military didn’t seem to be so noble after all.

He basically already understood the situation now.

The Water God Sect was most likely controlled single-handedly by Pei Yuanhu initially.

His spiritual split mind parasitic ability was mysterious and unpredictable. After taking control of the Water God Sect, he managed to control the leader of the Pure Water Holy Corps, Liang Long.

Then he built up power and cooperated with the Dove Faction military.

It’s even suspected that this acquisition of the Miyuan Rainforest had some hidden contributions from the Dove Faction military.

After acquiring the Miyuan Rainforest, Pei Yuanhu started cultivating this Tide Main Brain monster, embarking on the path of brainwashing followers.

It escalated to now, because of coveting Yangshan’s resources, provoking him, and developing to this point.

Liang Yuan sneered in his mind, even someone like Pei Yuanhu, the Dove Faction military was willing to work with.

Whether it was because the Dove Faction had truly reached its wits’ end and made this choice out of helplessness,

or they made such concessions for some so-called greater good to recruit a ’talent’ like Pei Yuanhu.

In Liang Yuan’s perspective, these ideologies were incompatible with his own!

”Mr. Liang, I know what you’re thinking.”

Zhang Wenjing suddenly spoke quietly: ”But sometimes a victory truly requires sacrificing part of the interests.”

”That’s the nature of war; there’s no flawless victory.”

Liang Yuan sneered, giving her a sidelong glance: ”You’re not among the part being sacrificed, of course you would say that.”

”And what qualifies you to decide who gets sacrificed?”

”I cannot agree with your ideology.”

”Especially when you see me as part of that small group to be sacrificed, sorry, but I’ll use my fists to kill anyone who wants to sacrifice me!”

Zhang Wenjing’s expression changed slightly.
