Chapter 1557: Chapter 890: What Kind of Place Is Yangshan?
“Meow—”
Li Ruo-han suddenly screamed and violently hurled the cat in her hand at Li Ting!
The cat instantly let out a pitiful cry, and in mid-air, it immediately entered a Genetic Reorganization State!
It was actually a Genetic Reorganization Level mutant beast!
Unfortunately, even in its Genetic Reorganization mutant beast form, it was only about ten meters in size.
The cat swiftly changed posture in the air, lunging at Li Ting.
However, Li Ting just offered a faint smile, her gaze barely focused on the cat.
The next moment, an invisible force of Spiritual Telekinesis instantly surged forth!
Boom!
The cat immediately screamed miserably, its head suddenly twisted and deformed!
Bam!
Its head exploded into a mess, fresh red flesh burst forth, and its enormous body fell directly to the ground, causing the floor to tremble slightly.
Li Ruo-han got furious, suddenly stood up, and was about to take action.
Yet at that moment, a sudden thunderclap sounded out in the void!
Rumble!
The thunder roared with a deafening blast, and a massive flash directly struck the cat’s corpse.
Followed by crackling lightning bolts continuously striking down and exploding.
In an instant, the cat’s corpse completely turned to ashes, even the blood on the ground evaporated.
Only a thick burning smell spread around, leaving the floor pierced with large pits.
Residual arcs of electricity continued to leap in the pits.
Li Ruo-han’s expression changed slightly. She turned to look at the Thunderbolt King beside her.
“What do you mean by this? Are you also helping her?”
Li Ruo-han couldn’t help but angrily question.
Hong Lei slowly withdrew his fingers and said indifferently, “Miss Ruo-han, didn’t you understand what I just said?”
“I said, taking action right now is meaningless; what determines life and death between us is not between us but over at Chi Mountain.”
“If you don’t want to listen to me, you can leave, but don’t make any move on my Thunderbolt Island.”
“Do you understand?”
He turned to look at Li Ruo-han, his eyes carrying a hint of coldness.
Li Ruo-han’s heart skipped a beat, and she couldn’t help but twitch slightly.
Obviously, she realized this old man wasn’t firmly in her trench.
Li Ruo-han took a deep breath, ultimately glaring at Li Ting, then chose to sit down.
But internally, she cursed, “Just wait till Director Jin returns; let’s see how you explain yourself, old man!”
Thus, the three sat within the hall, the atmosphere a bit awkward but not openly confrontational.
After a while, it was Thunderbolt King Hong Lei who first spoke.
He asked, “Director Li, what kind of shelter is the Yangshan Shelter?”
Upon hearing this, Li Ting glanced at Hong Lei, thought for a moment, and then said, “A governance model combining rule of law and human governance, perhaps.”
“The rule of law guarantees the basic survival safety of the shelter’s residents, preventing them from being bullied by the strong, allowing them to live with dignity.”
“Human governance adds some warmth, care, and humanistic concern on top of that.”
“Overall, I feel it’s not much different from the societal environment before the apocalypse. Of course, superpower users do enjoy some privileges, but it’s not as ridiculous as under Jin Shirong’s rule of Budding.”
She particularly emphasized this being under Jin Shirong’s rule.
Because formerly, when she was the director of Budding, she didn’t indiscriminately grant superpower users various privileges.
At that time, she also embraced a wolf-heart culture and the ideology of the strong being respected, but not as extreme as Jin Shirong.
Even allowing the strong to openly betray morality and bully ordinary people.
Therefore, she considers herself different from Jin Shirong.
Hong Lei nodded slightly and said, “It seems Yangshan Leader is a decent person, at least not too bad.”
Li Ruo-han couldn’t help but sneer and said, “How long has she stayed there in Yangshan? Does she truly understand them?”
“If that Liang is truly a good person, why would Liu Qinghong be brainwashed by him like that?”
“Moreover, the so-called rules are set for others, but as a leader, I don’t believe he always abides by them.”
“Humans are selfish creatures. When sitting in a Leader Level position, unbound by rules, they will only indulge themselves recklessly.”
Hong Lei glanced calmly at Li Ruo-han without speaking.
Clearly, Li Ruo-han was adopting Jin Shirong’s perspective.
Because Jin Shirong indeed acts boldly and is unrestrained by any rules.
At Budding, he’s already lawless, doing whatever he wants with no one able to control him.
Li Ting naturally knew Li Ruo-han was referring to Jin Shirong, and she scoffed coldly.
“Do you know how many women this Liang Yuan has in Yangshan?”
“Hmm?” Li Ruo-han frowned at Li Ting.
Li Ting said, “There are only 4 known publicly. Haha, what about Jin Shirong? How many women does he have? More than 400, right.”
“He built a massive harem on Ming Fox Island, selecting women from Budding’s tens of thousands of population as he pleased.”
“If he fancied a woman on the street, regardless of whose wife or daughter she was, she had to be sent to his bed by nightfall for his amusement.”
“So, how can he even compare to the Yangshan Leader there?”
“If Liang Yuan from Yangshan truly wanted women, would he lack them?”
“Yangshan’s population is definitely not much less than Budding’s, with women making up nearly half, many eager to climb into his bed daily.”
“But how can someone manage to have only four women?”
“It’s because they are self-disciplined and truly keep the shelter’s rules in mind. Such a leader is a blessing for a shelter.”
“A beast who only knows how to toy with women and is unreasonable will eventually be deserted by everyone, no matter how strong they are.”
Li Ruohan clenched his fists upon hearing this.
“How do you know that Liang doesn’t want more women? What if he secretly has many mistresses? What if he can’t do it?”
Hong Lei pressed his forehead, feeling quite speechless.
He interrupted their conversation, saying, “There’s no need to discuss how many women a leader-level person has. Whether he is a qualified leader depends on how much the shelter’s people recognize him in their hearts.”
“Director Li, what is Mr. Liang Yuan’s reputation among the Yangshan people?”
Li Ting said, “Excessively good; he’s almost becoming their faith.”
“If you were in Yangshan and casually asked someone, they could tell you that without Mr. Liang, there would be no Yangshan today.”
Li Ruohan sneered, “Brainwashing, right? Isn’t Liu Qinghong the best example?”
Li Ting was speechless, unwilling to argue with someone pretending to be asleep.
As they were chatting, a person hurriedly entered from outside.
“Island Lord, there’s news from Chi Mountain.”
The newcomer glanced at Li Ting and Li Ruohan, hesitated for a moment, and didn’t directly disclose the news.
But the three people present immediately focused their eyes on the messenger.
Hong Lei glanced at Li Ting and Li Ruohan, and said lightly, “Go ahead, there’s nothing to hide about this matter.”
“Yes, Island Lord, according to our report, the Yangshan warship has already breached the floating islands around Chi Mountain. Director Jin… Director Jin…”
“What happened to Director Jin? Speak up!” Li Ruohan urgently demanded in anger.
The messenger said in a low voice, “Director Jin is suspected to have fallen.”
“What!”
Li Ruohan instantly stood up, eyes full of disbelief.
Li Ting’s eyes also revealed a look of surprise.
She knew that since Liang Yuan dared to approach, he must be prepared.
However, she never expected Liang Yuan to directly kill Jin Shirong!
She thought Liang Yuan could at most kill a few of Jin Shirong’s clones!
Even Hong Lei’s pupils slightly contracted upon hearing this news.
He was also a bit shocked.
Li Ruohan shouted, “Impossible! It’s impossible; Director Jin’s true body is hidden away, so he couldn’t be killed; it was just his clones that died, right?”
“That’s right, it was definitely just a few clones. Thunderbolt Law Lord, your spies are too incompetent. They don’t know Director Jin’s powerful abilities at all!”
Upon hearing this, even Hong Lei began to doubt the accuracy of the news.
Indeed, given Jin Shirong’s cloning ability, to truly kill him, one must find his true body.
But Jin Shirong’s true body is deeply hidden; who can find it?
Even we board members of Sprout don’t know where Jin Shirong’s true body is hidden. How could the Yangshan Leader possibly find it?
He immediately asked, “What do you mean by suspected to have fallen? What exactly is going on? Explain clearly.”
The messenger hurriedly said, “According to the intelligence we observed on-site, at that time, Director Jin only left four clones to guard the Sprout headquarters.”
“The other clones went with most of Sprout’s higher-ups to Kerry Technology.”
“However, once the Yangshan people attacked the headquarters, Director Jin’s four clones were unable to withstand their siege, and one of the clones was captured by the Yangshan Leader.”
“Shortly after they left, the remaining three clones suddenly collapsed and then gradually disappeared from the spot.”
“So we suspect something happened to Director Jin’s true body, causing an issue with the clones.”
“Additionally, not long after, the Yangshan Leader returned, but he wasn’t alone; he brought people from Kerry Technology as well.”
“Kerry Technology people?” Hong Lei was astonished, then immediately understood something and said, “Did they collaborate?”
“Impossible, it’s impossible. How could Director Jin lose? How could he be dead?”
“Are you lying to us? How dare you, you’re asking for death!”
Li Ruohan seemed unable to accept this truth, suddenly screamed, and reached out to grab the messenger.
However, just as her arm reached halfway, a thunderbolt suddenly struck!
Boom!
The terrifying thunderbolt almost exploded directly on Li Ruohan.
Li Ruohan’s expression changed, and she quickly withdrew her hand, glaring angrily at Hong Lei.
Hong Lei said coldly, “Li Ruohan, get it clear, this is my Thunder Punishment Island, not your Hundred Flowers Island!”
“Everything on this island, even each blade of grass and tree, belongs to this old man! If you act recklessly again, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Li Ruohan’s face turned very unsightly, and she clenched her fists tightly, saying, “Hong Lei, do you really think Director Jin is dead? So you’re in such a hurry to defect to Liang?”
Hong Lei sneered, “Idiot.”
He couldn’t be bothered with Li Ruohan and instead questioned the messenger again, “Who came from Kerry Technology?”
“It was the head of Kerry Technology, James!” the messenger reported truthfully.
As soon as he heard this, Hong Lei’s heart shook violently!
He immediately turned to Li Ting and asked, “When did you start collaborating with Kerry Technology?”
Li Ting appeared calm and composed at this moment.
Hearing Hong Lei’s question, she couldn’t help but laugh, “Mr. Hong, I think you might have misunderstood something.”
“Oh?” Hong Lei looked at Li Ting with a puzzled expression.
Li Ting stood up, chuckled, and said, “Kerry Technology didn’t join forces with Yangshan; they submitted!”
