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

Chapter 1298 - 632: You Will Understand When You See the Celestial Abyss

Liang Yuan’s gaze was calm, staring at Zhang Yujiang.

The man before him, who claimed to want to save the world, had indeed taken some measures.

For instance, in the early days, he used the radio to broadcast some information about superpower runes.

Liang Yuan was also willing to believe that there were still good people in the military with a conscience and a sense of responsibility.

But with each interaction, Liang Yuan discovered that Zhang Yujiang’s motives seemed not so pure.

He genuinely wanted to save people, but there must be personal motives as well.

In the apocalypse, population was the primary resource.

No matter which faction, within the capabilities of its own base, would try to expand its scale as much as possible.

The military was no exception; they were also absorbing the population from outside.

Of course, it’s normal for people to have personal motives; truly great people are, after all, a minority.

At least among the people Liang Yuan had met so far, perhaps only that officer Li Hao from Fanshan Island could be considered as such.

Of course, this could also be related to the fact that Li Hao awoke to a Strength Superpower later on and couldn’t suppress the superpower users on the island, being unable to wield power.

Power is the most corrupting thing for the human heart.

Liang Yuan remembered watching a movie before the great flood, where someone couldn’t understand why officials, who were already worry-free with adequate food and clothing, would still resort to corruption, embezzlement, or other illegal and criminal activities.

So, this person sought a custom service to make himself a leader, to let the bad atmosphere corrupt him, as he didn’t believe in this wickedness.

The ending was that this person resisted many temptations but ultimately succumbed to the temptation of beauty.

The movie was well-made, without any exaggeration.

That person had good intentions, even a sincere wish to be a good leader.

However, various external temptations, money, and beauty are always able to corrupt you, to touch you.

Liang Yuan didn’t know if Zhang Yujiang had been corrupted.

Perhaps, in the beginning, he intended to help survivors affected by the flood.

But as time passed, how much of that original intention remained was hard to predict.

Liang Yuan didn’t want to speculate anymore; the human heart is hard to fathom.

He now only wanted to take back what belonged to him!

The Miyuan Rainforest was the asset of the Water God Sect, and since he destroyed the Water God Sect, these assets should belong to him!

So he directly confronted Zhang Yujiang’s actions in protecting Pei Yuanhu and bluntly demanded the person!

Zhang Yujiang and Liang Yuan stared at each other for a moment, seeing no wavering in Liang Yuan’s expression.

He lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea.

Next to him, Zhang Wenjing was the first to scold.

”You, Liang, what do you mean by this!”

”Pei Yuanhu’s abilities can help us explore the Celestial Abyss. He had long since pledged loyalty to the nation and served the troops. What right do you have to demand him?”

”Do you not have any regard for the country?”

Liang Yuan looked indifferently at the woman and asked coldly, ”Of course, I care for my country, but I never use national prestige as a tool to oppress others.”

”In today’s flood-ridden apocalypse, the land has long turned into a vast ocean. Can you still represent the country?”

”We are the military, the national military, and of course, we represent the country!” Zhang Wenjing rebuked Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan sneered, ”Can you contact the higher-ups?”

Zhang Wenjing snapped, ”Unable to contact them doesn’t mean we don’t follow wartime military regulations.”

”Facing major natural disasters, we have the authority to take over local power structures!”

”You, Liang, gathering people on Yangshan is already an illegal act. We haven’t held you accountable, yet we decided to collaborate with you, and now you go too far, demanding for someone? Who do you think you are?”

Liang Yuan laughed mockingly, ”The Three Great Sects brainwash survivors, forming cults. Why don’t you deal with them?”

”When we were trapped by the flood in the building, why didn’t you help?”

”And now you’re bringing up these rules to scare whom?”

Ignoring Zhang Wenjing, he looked at Zhang Yujiang and said, ”Commander Zhang, stop with the meaningless nonsense. I only ask you, will you give me Pei Yuanhu or not?”
