Chapter 798: Chapter 299 Li Qinghua’s Choice_5 Liang Yuan chuckled, "What, are there conditions?" "Yes." "Let’s hear them." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚 "People from Yangshan can’t retaliate against us because of previous events." Liang Yuan nodded, "I said before, the stab just now counts as settling the grudge between you and Yangshan." Li Qinghua took a deep breath and said, "Alright, from today, the three of us will join Yangshan Shelter." Saying this, he struggled to get up, and immediately more blood oozed out from the wound on his back. Seeing this, Lin Wan, with a face full of anxiety, wanted to help him, but her body was completely immobile. She looked at Liang Yuan and said, "Mr. Liang, we’ve admitted defeat. We’ve agreed to join Yangshan..." Liang Yuan smiled, and the puppet threads dispersed, allowing Lin Wan to regain control of her body. She quickly reached out her hand to support Li Qinghua. Unexpectedly, Li Qinghua held her hand down. Under the anxious gazes of Zhou Qingming and Lin Wan, Li Qinghua looked at Liang Yuan, took a deep breath, and said, "Li Qinghua, I greet Mr. Liang." Despite the pain in his back, he bowed deeply. Liang Yuan laughed instantly, raised his hand, and an invisible force of telekinesis lifted Li Qinghua up, "Good. From today on, you are also counted as a member of Yangshan Shelter." Saying this, he took out a vial of green reagent from his pocket and casually threw it over. Li Qinghua immediately caught it, looked at the reagent, and then looked at Liang Yuan. Liang Yuan said, "Drink it." Li Qinghua’s heart skipped a beat, his gaze lowered slightly. He hesitated for less than a second before opening the vial and drinking it all in one gulp. Zhou Qingming and Lin Wan, who were beside him, were terribly anxious and wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. "What did you make him drink?" Zhou Qingming roared angrily, struggling to get up. However, Liang Yuan just glanced at him, and instantly a terrifying force of telekinesis smashed him hard onto the ground. With a thud, Zhou Qingming knelt on the ground. Liang Yuan said coldly, "Remember, in Yangshan, although I am not a dictator, the dignity of a leader cannot be infringed. Pay attention to your attitude when speaking!" Zhou Qingming roared angrily. At this moment, Li Qinghua suddenly lifted his head in surprise. He felt the wound on his back quickly scab and stop bleeding. Lin Wan also saw this scene and immediately understood that the reagent was not poison but a healing agent. They evidently misunderstood Liang Yuan. Lin Wan quickly said, "Mr. Liang, I’m sorry, we misunderstood you. Old Zhou, quickly apologize to Mr. Liang!" Zhou Qingming was stunned at her words, then looked at Li Qinghua, noticing the wounds on Li Qinghua’s back had indeed scabbed and stopped bleeding. He finally understood, his angry expression froze, he opened his mouth, looked at Liang Yuan, but couldn’t manage to say any words of gratitude. Liang Yuan snorted coldly and looked at Li Qinghua, saying, "Rest for a while. Once you three recover, you will join me back at Yangshan." At this time, Li Yuejin emerged from the woods, smilingly approached the three, extended his hand, and laughed, "Congratulations on joining Yangshan, I’m Li Yuejin." He individually shook hands with Lin Wan and Li Qinghua. When he reached Zhou Qingming, Zhou Qingming glared angrily at Li Yuejin. Earlier aboard the Firebird, Zhou Qingming was given a stern slap by Li Yuejin, so naturally, he had a sour expression. However, Li Yuejin simply bypassed him without shaking his hand. This handshake was not genuinely intended for cordial greetings. During the handshakes, Li Yuejin secretly imprinted a spiritual brand on each of them. From then on, these individuals in Yangshan would never hide their actions from him and Mr. Liang. While he managed to subdue them, necessary measures of control were a must. Prior to arriving, he’d asked Mr. Liang for his opinion, so his actions were actually approved by Mr. Liang. Li Yuejin, secretly thinking, looked at the three people and thought: "The best case is that these three are truly convinced in joining Yangshan Shelter; otherwise, they’d never know how they’d die." At this moment, Liang Yuan spoke, "You three should rest here first. Teacher Li, come with me." Li Yuejin immediately nodded and followed Liang Yuan deeper into the woods. Li Yuejin asked, "Mr. Liang, where are we heading?" Liang Yuan glanced around at the dense woods, "We’ve secured Yangshan and Meishan, but Lingyun Slope remains unexplored." "I plan to explore around and visit the peak of Lingyun Slope." Upon hearing this, Li Yuejin quickly nodded, "Indeed, Lingyun Slope hasn’t been developed, so there are no buildings here. Before the flood, it was frequented only by outdoor adventurers." "Nowadays, even adventurers’ trails are probably gone, likely with many mutant beasts lurking around." Liang Yuan said, "It’s close to Yangshan. If the area is rich in resources, we may consider constructing a floating bridge to include Lingyun Slope within our domain." Li Yuejin nodded instantly, "If we could include Lingyun Slope, the three main mountains of the Yang Mountain Range would be under our control. We could establish military fortresses on these mountains to defend against potential future crises." Liang Yuan smiled, saying nothing. Since discovering abundant mineral veins in Meishan, Liang Yuan had a strong feeling that the interior of the Yang Mountain Range probably contained a considerable amount of mineral veins.
