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

Chapter 1479: Chapter 812: Ling Yurong’s Ambition

Upon hearing Zhang Peng’s words, Liang Yuan immediately sighed.

Have they really reached the point of starting a family?

For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

“What’s wrong, Brother Liang?”

Seeing Liang Yuan’s expression not quite right, Zhang Peng quickly asked.

Liang Yuan decided to lay it all out.

“I have news about Wen Lili.”

“What!”

Zhang Peng’s eyes widened, his pupils contracted a bit, unable to believe it.

He immediately grabbed Liang Yuan’s arm excitedly, “Brother Liang, say it again! Say it again!”

Liang Yuan sighed, “Don’t get too excited. I met Lu Dayou and Liang Minru on the Floating Island, and they told me that Wen Lili is still alive.”

“Still alive! She’s still alive! That’s great, that’s great, hahaha—”

Zhang Peng laughed with joy, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

He knelt on the ground, pounding the earth with laughter.

He then raised his head and asked, “Brother Liang, where is she? Where is Lili? I want to find her!”

Liang Yuan shook his head, “She was originally on the Floating Island, but Lu Dayou said she couldn’t let go of you, so she ventured away from that Floating Island to find you, risking attacks from Mutant Beasts in the sky.”

“As for now, I don’t know where she is.”

Zhang Peng was suddenly stunned, somewhat agitated, “How could she, how could she be so foolish, I, Brother Liang, I want to find her, I need to find her!”

“Where did she go to find me? I want to find her!”

Zhang Peng shouted excitedly.

At that moment, they saw Wen Xiao, Wen Fang, and Gao Yucheng coming out from the supermarket in the leisure square.

Wen Fang heard Zhang Peng’s excited voice and curiously called out, “Brother Peng, who are you going to find?”

For a moment, the previously excited Zhang Peng suddenly froze in place.

He didn’t dare to turn around, his face gradually turning pale.

As Wen Fang walked over, she handed a cloth bag, saying, “Mr. Liang, we bought some fruits, fresh blueberries picked from the eco-park, and they even gave us a shopping bag. You should try them too.”

Saying this, she took out a box of blueberries, offering them to Liang Yuan and Zhang Peng.

Zhang Peng kept his head down, not daring to look at her.

Seeing this scene, Liang Yuan also sighed inwardly.

He reached out for the blueberries and took a bite; they were indeed very sweet.

Liang Yuan smiled, “Thank you.”

“You’re too kind. Without you, we would’ve been suffering outside.”

“We should be the ones to thank you.” Wen Fang smiled.

She then handed one to Zhang Peng, “Brother Peng, you have one too.”

Zhang Peng still kept his head down, without moving.

Wen Fang seemed puzzled, bending down to look up at his face.

As soon as she saw it, she was startled.

“Brother Peng, you, you…”

She hurriedly reached out to cup Zhang Peng’s face, only to see his eyes filled with tears, bearing a look of pain.

“Brother Peng? Why, why are you crying?”

Wen Fang immediately became anxious and quickly asked with concern.

Zhang Peng’s lips trembled, yet he didn’t know what to say.

He and Wen Fang had already reached the stage of discussing marriage. Now, if he abandoned everything to find Wen Lili, what about Wen Fang?

At that moment, his heart was in turmoil, not knowing what to do.

Just then, Wen Xiao hurried over, glanced at the situation, thinking perhaps Liang Yuan had said something harsh to Zhang Peng.

He quickly asked, “Mr. Liang, what happened?”

Liang Yuan slightly shook his head, “Sigh, Zhang Peng, think about how you want to solve it.”

With that, Liang Yuan turned and left the place.

In such matters, he had no solutions.

He hadn’t walked far when he heard Wen Fang’s crying and Wen Xiao’s scolding.

Perhaps Zhang Peng had confessed the situation and planned to search for Wen Lili.

This undoubtedly hurt Wen Fang’s heart, and naturally, her brother Wen Xiao was incredibly angry.

But Liang Yuan knew that outsiders had no place in such matters, and it was something they had to resolve themselves.

He couldn’t help but think of his own relationship with Lin Ya, smiling wryly.

“I’m not Zhang Peng, and Lin Ya isn’t Wen Fang, and Sister Mei certainly isn’t Wen Lili.”

“We’re not the same.”

Liang Yuan whispered to himself softly.

By evening, Mist City Floating Island had also arrived.

However, like the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth, due to gravitational repulsion, the Floating Island couldn’t get close to the Mirage Snake Space Floating Island.

So it stopped seven kilometers away, adjacent to the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth.

Subsequently, within the Floating Island of Mist City, Ling Yurong, Jin Peng, and Di Quanke led the Ice Armor Soldier Legion and the relevant mercenary corps leaders to Little Straw Mountain to meet Liang Yuan.

“Subordinate greets the master!”

“Greetings to the master.”

Ling Yurong, Di Quanke, and Jin Peng still maintained the dress of the ancients, and even their manner of greeting was a traditional salute, quite out of sync with modern individuals.

Under the influence of these three, Mist City had become somewhat hierarchical. The mercenary corps leaders and the left and right leaders of the Ice Armor Soldier Legion also stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and greeted Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan said in a deep voice, “Stand up.”

The few quickly stood up, and Liang Yuan asked, “Has anything major happened recently in Mist City?”

Ling Yurong replied, “No, recently, as per your instructions, Mist City has been vigorously cultivating ice attribute mutant beasts and planting winter-growing vegetables.”

Mist City belongs to an ice attribute island, which actually is not suitable for survival.

However, compared to the barren environment of the Dark Abyss Mouth, some cold-resistant plants can still be cultivated here.

In addition, the special ice attribute environment allows Mist City to specially breed some ice attribute mutant beasts.

For Superpower Users, the ice attribute genetic species, besides being condensed from ice attribute blood crystals, can also be condensed and refined from the blood essence of ice attribute mutant beasts.

The energy purity of ice attribute blood crystals is high, but they are expensive.

After all, these blood crystals are the essence from the heart of the ice attribute Floating Island, and the quantity is fixed; using a portion means one less portion.

But the blood essence of ice attribute mutant beasts is different. As long as a large number of ice attribute mutant beasts are cultivated, there will be an endless supply of blood essence.

Liang Yuan and the others certainly would not miss such a sustainable development opportunity.

In fact, not only ice attribute mutant beasts, but various other attribute mutant beasts are also being cultivated on other islands.

These mutant beasts can not only provide blood essence to refine genetic species, but their flesh can also be consumed, solving the protein and fat source issues for the Shelter residents.

In short, raising livestock and planting agriculture, these are things the Yangshan Shelter has always been actively experimenting with.

After all, these are the issues that relate to the major survival plans for the Shelter residents.

Liang Yuan talked with them for a while and then let them move freely.

Ling Yurong and the others left the Leader’s Mansion and strolled around Little Straw Mountain.

Looking at the bustling small city that was Little Straw Mountain, Jin Peng couldn’t help but sigh, “In just two short years of doomsday, Mr. Liang and the others have actually rebuilt a civilization with order and social ecology. Amazing.”

Beside him, Di Quanke also nodded, “In our time, after the apocalypse arrived, humans struggled desperately, taking decades to achieve a relatively stable scattered cluster ecology.”

“Times have changed, the new waves push the old waves.”

The two were filled with emotion.

Ling Yurong, however, remained calm and said, “This may be good for ordinary people, but not necessarily for us.”

“Oh? What do you mean?” Di Quanke asked in confusion.

Ling Yurong said, “Ordinary people muddle through life, are mediocre all their lives, and having a stable living environment is already thanking Heaven.”

“But we are destined to be different from these people; our goal is the stars.”

“Mr. Liang is also destined to become a Star God level figure.”

“By then, our world will only be in space, not on this mere planet.”

“This place, for us, will only become shackles that trap us.”

Di Quanke and Jin Peng fell into silence.

After a long while, Di Quanke sighed, “Star God is not so easy to break through, Ling Yurong, you and I both come from that era, you should know, those who can break through to become a Star God, are few and far between.”

Jin Peng also sighed, “If I could become a Star God, wouldn’t I have already become one long ago? Why else would I be lingering till now?”

Di Quanke added, “The new era of great floods will have new talents of exceptional caliber, alas, these old bones of mine probably won’t catch up.”

Jin Peng said, “Mr. Liang is a genius. He might be able to take that step, but I… alas.”

He let out a bitter laugh; a thousand years ago he hadn’t managed to break through to the Star God, to step off this planet, and now he’s barely surviving relying on the so-called longevity method.

How can this life breakthrough the Star God?

Ling Yurong’s face slightly darkened, and she scolded, “If you think from the bottom of your heart that you can’t do it, of course, there’s no possibility of breaking through to the Star God!”

“I chose to sleep until now to wait for the initial period of the flood when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surges!”

“This period is the golden era for Superpower Users.”

“Those gods and immortals in the skies, which one of them did not easily cross the Star God realm thanks to early abundant spiritual energy and rich resources?”

“If they can, we who were born in the End of Dharma Era, returning to the peak period of spiritual energy, might also live a second life!”

“Just wait, I will find my next split mind, quickly breakthrough gene recombination, and step into the Star God realm!”

She flicked her sleeve, rose into the air, and directly flew towards Mist City, not lingering in the flowery world of Little Straw Mountain any longer.

To her, these old guys’ dispirited words would only affect her spiritual path!

She was unwilling to stay with these old folks, brooding.

With the time spent, she would have already found the next person who awakened her Spiritual Split Thought.

Di Quanke and Jin Peng exchanged a glance, both couldn’t help but show a bitter smile.

Jin Peng said in a deep voice, “Our Ice Goddess is proud and ambitious.”

Di Quanke said, “She was just one step away from the Star God realm during the End of Dharma Era, it’s natural her heart wouldn’t be content to stop.”

Jin Peng shook his head, “It’s not that simple. Since we rely on the longevity method to live till now, but to rebuild, we must first concentrate and find back the scattered Spiritual Split Thought.”

“Only in this way can we quickly restore our peak power.”

“Moreover, let’s not talk about whether anyone can awaken our Spiritual Split Thought; even if someone accidentally awakens our Genetic Split Mind, who’s to say they wouldn’t resist?”

“Furthermore, just one or two Split Thoughts can’t restore us to peak condition.”

Di Quanke said, “Alas, the longevity method is both our making and our ruin.”

Jin Peng could not help but let out a sigh with a feeling of being willing yet unable.
