Chapter 403: 226 Brother Feng’s Decision (Third Update)_2

From the very beginning, she didn’t want children. But now, in the apocalypse, when they were fleeing in such haste, who would remember to bring condoms? She realized she was pregnant only because she found a pack of pregnancy tests at the village’s health station.

She came from a well-off family, but sadly, after the apocalypse, she was trapped in this village with no way to return home. To survive, she had no choice but to submit herself to Brother Feng. Fortunately, Brother Feng was mature and steady, handsome, and strong; being with him wasn’t really a loss.

If today’s events hadn’t occurred, she would have continued to follow Brother Feng. However, when she heard that strong outsiders were passing through, her thoughts began to stir.

If they were so strong, could they take her home? She didn’t want to stay in this small village forever, living each day in fear that it might be her last!

She wanted to go home!

Thinking this, her hand pressed hard against her lower abdomen, her fingers clawing into it as if she wished she could squeeze the life out of what was inside her.

She had seen pregnant women before, lumbering around with large bellies, their complexions poor and their movements clumsy. And after giving birth, their figures distorted, their skin became dull, and they might even develop spots!

She refused to end up like that! She was still so young with such a long road ahead; how could she let childbirth turn her into a haggard mess!

Thankfully, she had secretly stashed away some abortion pills. Just as soon as she found the chance, she could rid herself of the burden in her belly!

Having reviewed all her plans in her mind, Li Ranqiu breathed a sigh of relief and continued to observe the situation outside.

...

When Brother Feng reached the entrance, he was shocked to discover his subordinates battered and sprawled on the ground. On closer inspection, he found they were all alive and not seriously injured.

After checking on each person who had fallen, he lifted his head and looked at the people opposite him. Then his pupils dilated in surprise!

He couldn’t see through half of the people before him! This meant their levels were all above his!

How could this be!

Brother Feng’s expression grew extremely unpleasant. He thought he had become quite powerful and had mentally prepared for tough opposition. But he hadn’t expected the opponents to be so strong!

How could they fight this battle now?

But he wasn’t foolish. He quickly noticed one detail—the fallen weren’t seriously injured!

This meant the opponents had shown mercy; they hadn’t intended to kill!

Brother Feng quickly realized that this was an opportunity. These people were strong, but since they hadn’t killed, either they were too kind, or they weren’t set on killing.

Whichever it was, it worked in his favor!

So he said, "I’m Feng Yue, the leader of this settlement. My people have been rude and neglected our guests. On their behalf, I apologize to you. If it’s not too much to ask, may we talk inside?"

While speaking, he gestured to his subordinates, signaling them to stay calm and not act rashly. Seeing his signal, the men ready to rise and continue fighting obediently grabbed their weapons and stood to the side.

Feng Yue’s gaze swept over Fang Yuyang, Bai Ye, and Fang Yuxin, intuitively feeling that these three were the strongest. Seeing Angela on Fang Yuxin’s shoulder, his heart skipped a beat, and his eyes narrowed.

He hadn’t anticipated that the seemingly palm-sized creature would instill in him such a strong sense of crisis!

This unsettled him deeply, and the prepared excuses and calculations in his head dissipated.

Angela made him acutely aware that these were not people he could afford to offend!

Bai Ye gave Fang Yuxin a deliberate glance and, seeing that she didn’t speak, said, "There’s no need to go inside. We came here only seeking a map of the area, not expecting to cause such a commotion. Your way of welcoming guests is truly... impressive."

His pointed words made Feng Yue’s face show signs of embarrassment. Of course, he knew how his subordinates behaved and allowed it to happen so they could gain more advantages.

But now, trying to rob only to meet strong opposition, he could only blame his own bad luck for not stopping such misconduct.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil within, and spoke solemnly, "If it pleases you, my friend, I’m willing to offer a thousand Crystal Cores as compensation for your trouble. How does that sound?"

As he spoke, Feng Yue’s heart bled; a thousand Crystal Cores were not a small number! He only had a little over two thousand left, all painstakingly saved!

Bai Ye raised an eyebrow. His strength was not bad, but resources were scarce. Just recently, they’d been robbed, and their supplies stolen—a thousand Crystal Cores was not a small sum.

Moreover, this was only a small settlement; Feng Yue likely didn’t have many Crystal Cores to spare, yet he was willing to offer a thousand as compensation, which surely required some bleeding.

However, he didn’t agree straight away but instead looked towards Fang Yuxin, mentally asking her opinion, "Yuxin, what do you think?"

Fang Yuxin had been watching Feng Yue and simultaneously telepathically told Bai Ye, "This man has Elemental Crystals, and judging by the surrounding destruction, he must have saved quite a few. Otherwise, he couldn’t have grown so quickly!"

"Elemental Crystals?" Bai Ye’s interest was piqued upon hearing this. He originally collected a considerable number of Elemental Crystals, but alas, they were all stolen by the Shen siblings! This was a huge loss!

However, how did Fang Yuxin figure out that Feng Yue had Elemental Crystals on him? (To be continued. If you like this piece, please go to Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your recommendation and monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
