Chapter 894: Chapter 333: Requests and Betrayals (Part 2)
At this moment, although the flood level had risen significantly, the Henglong Building still stood far above the water surface.
Compared to two months ago, Henglong Building appeared much more dilapidated on the outside.
Many windows were broken, and a lot of green moss had grown on the outside.
There were numerous large sea shells and other creatures attached to the glass near the water’s surface.
The whole building appeared aged and worn, full of the sense of time.
Liang Yuan looked at this building, and couldn’t help but recall how he and others were tricked into entering it.
That experience was extremely dangerous, and that woman named Qin Jing left a deep impression on him.
And that big-headed monster Yang Xue, from whose mutated head he had burst out a green Skill Bead called ’Puppet Threads’.
Many of the resources within the Yangshan Complex were also moved from this building by him.
Scenes from the past resurfaced, leaving Liang Yuan quite nostalgic.
Now, the bodies of Qin Jing and others were probably already decayed into skeletons.
Yet, he not only survived, but also personally established the Yangshan Shelter.
Ding Yan flipped down and landed by Liang Yuan’s side, her expression also filled with emotion.
"Visiting an old place, how does it feel?" she asked.
Liang Yuan also sighed with emotion: "Things remain, but people have changed. It’s only been about two months, but it feels like two years have passed."
Ding Yan nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it always gives one the feeling of a lifetime ago."
"Unknowingly, we’ve grown to this point."
"Not only do we have our own shelter, but a ship too. Thinking back, we relied only on a few broken rafts, yet we rowed all the way from Meidu Garden to Yangshan."
She laughed, with a smile containing pride, sentiment, and a bit of relief.
Liang Yuan exchanged a glance with her and they both smiled.
"Thinking about it, we should be nearing Meidu Garden, right?"
Ding Yan nodded and said: "We should be. I remember it took us half a day to get here by raft back then."
"With our ship’s speed now, far exceeding that of the raft, I estimate we should reach Meidu Garden in less than thirty minutes."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said: "That sounds about right."
"I wonder what the situation is like at Building 76 now, and whether the mutated sunflowers have been destroyed," Ding Yan said.
Liang Yuan smiled: "The mutated sunflowers are incredibly valuable. Neither the people in Building 76 nor any intruders would want to destroy such mutant plants."
"Then again, when pushed to madness, people can do anything."
"True, regardless, we’re just passing by to take a look. If the mutated sunflowers are still there, we’ll take them, if not, we’ll just move on."
"Mhm."
...
"Bang!"
With a thud, Zhang Peng’s body quickly retreated and slammed into the walkway of Building 75.
His scale armor shattered over his chest, blood surged from his mouth, and he glared at Zhao Jun with anger mixed with shock.
"Min Guoqiang, what are you doing!"
Zhang Peng looked up at the room upstairs, shouting angrily.
The upstairs room’s windows were tightly closed, with no movement inside.
At this moment, Xu Lie Feng had already surrounded Zhang Peng completely with Zhao Jun, Xiaojiang, and others.
Opposite Zhang Peng, Wen Xiao and Gao Yucheng were similarly surrounded.
Wen Fang and An Minghui had already been knocked to the ground, their condition unknown.
Wen Xiao shouted: "Min Guoqiang, Xu Lie Feng and his men are ambitious wolves, what are you waiting for!"
Gao Yucheng didn’t speak; his muscles were bulging, looking strong, yet he was already short of breath.
On Xu Lie Feng’s side, Zhao Jun let out a cold chuckle: "Fools, haven’t you realized that Min Guoqiang already sold you out."
"He’s been with us all along, today is your death day!"
Xu Lie Feng also shook his head with a smile, looking at Zhang Peng, and said: "Zhang Peng, you are quite sharp, trying to set a trap for me, such a pity."
"Human plans are not as reliable as heaven’s. Min Guoqiang has long been with me. I’m giving you a chance now, tell me where your food is hidden, and I’ll give you a clean death."
Zhang Peng’s face turned ashen with a mix of shock and anger.
He never would have thought that Min Guoqiang had indeed betrayed them.
He didn’t understand why that treacherous old man would choose to trust someone like Xu Lie Feng.
Doesn’t he realize that cooperating with Xu Lie Feng is no different than seeking skin from a tiger?
This fool!
He cursed silently in his heart, unable to resist shouting, "Min Guoqiang, don’t you want to go to Yangshan anymore? Have you forgotten how Mr. Liang helped you in the first place?"
"With what you’re doing today, how will you face Mr. Liang when you get to Yangshan?"
Xu Lie Feng didn’t seem in a hurry to kill Zhang Peng and the others, he laughed and yelled, "Old Min, why don’t you tell us? I’m curious about what you’re thinking."
"Ever since I entered your Building 75, I’ve heard you brag a lot about this damn Mr. Liang, come on, tell me what you think."
In the room upstairs, Min Guoqiang, Luo Yang and the others couldn’t help sighing.
Luo Yang couldn’t resist cursing in a low voice, "Why the hell does this Xu bastard have so much nonsense to say, wouldn’t it be easier to just kill Zhang Peng and the rest?"
Min Guoqiang said helplessly, "He’s forcing us to take a stand publicly, making us pick sides."
"This Xu Lie Feng is indeed a sly guy, we deliberately stayed out of view, planning to not help either side."
"That way, even if Zhang Peng and the others die, they can’t blame us."
"Now he’s forcing us to come out, sigh."
"Forget it, what’s done is done, nothing can be done about it."
Min Guoqiang sighed once, pushed open the door upstairs, and walked down the stairs.
He led Luo Yang and the others, with a hint of helplessness on his face, he looked at Zhang Peng and said, "Captain Zhang, you are too stubborn, always wanting to get to the bottom of things."
"Look at you, you’re not Mr. Liang, how can you represent him here?"
"Besides, who told you I’m going to Yangshan?"
"You probably don’t know, but Boss Xu has Brother Huo backing him, and Brother Huo is over at Linjiang University seizing ships."
"What Yangshan are you talking about, far away on the horizon, wouldn’t Brother Huo’s ships be safer?"
"Don’t blame me for not remembering old ties, it’s just that these times are tough, and I have no choice."
After saying this, Min Guoqiang looked at Xu Lie Feng with a flattering smile, "Boss Xu, do you need us to take action?"
Xu Lie Feng immediately burst into laughter, very satisfied with Min Guoqiang’s sense of the situation.
"You guys hold back that Telekinesis Superpower User and Strength Superpower User, once we finish off Zhang and his lot, we’ll come back to deal with them together." Xu Lie Feng commanded with a laugh.
Without a word, Min Guoqiang turned to Wen Xiao and Gao Yucheng, directly gesturing to Luo Yang and the others, saying, "Take action!"
"Fuck!"
"Min Guoqiang, fuck your mother!"
Wen Xiao and Gao Yucheng’s eyes widened with anger, each cursed, then quickly retaliated.
Wen Xiao waved his hand, several steel rods shot out with a whoosh, manipulated by his telekinesis, they whizzed and burst out like arrows, elusive and deadly.
Opposite them, Luo Yang’s muscles swelled, leaping into the air, grabbing one of the steel rods forcefully.
With immense power bursting forth, the steel rod was gripped tightly by him, no matter how much Wen Xiao tried to maneuver it with telekinesis, it couldn’t be controlled.
Luo Yang sneered, swung back and smashed down violently, with a clanging sound, several other steel rods in the air were knocked down violently by him.
At this moment, Min Guoqiang also activated his superpower, his skin quivered rapidly, a layer of flesh-colored armor quickly surfaced around him.
His originally aged body began to swell, his muscles bulging!
His entire body was covered in a layer of flesh armor, he took a step forward, throwing a fierce punch at Gao Yucheng.
Seeing this, Gao Yucheng’s eyes widened, his blood surged, a stream of white gas flowed on his fist!
Boom!
He punched out, the airflow vibrated, a loud roar echoed.
The airwaves exploded, fist force surged wildly, tearing the air, forming a terrifying airflow.
His superpower called [Qi Gong], allows him to manipulate airflow while punching.
With this punch, the airflow formed a powerful Qi force explosion.
With a roar, Min Guoqiang’s body halted suddenly, punch force trembling, the flesh armor on his skin rustling.
His body kept retreating, surprised look appeared on his face.
"What a powerful superpower, such strength!"
Gao Yucheng roared, "Old man, today is your end!"
Min Guoqiang shook his head slightly, only smiled and said, "I have no intention of fighting to the death, young man, we aren’t the main battlefield, once your boss dies, you’re next."
Gao Yucheng’s heart jumped, instinctively looking towards Zhang Peng’s side.
