Chapter 339: Chapter 272: Astonishing Changes in Four Days (Sixth Update)

Meng Ting, the noble leader of Freedom Village, greeted warmly, "My name is Meng Ting, and I am the leader of Freedom Village. This man beside me is Su Yu, the deputy leader. We are representing all villagers in Freedom Village to welcome you to our family."

Bu Penglai seemed to be shy around girls. Hearing Meng Ting said so, his face immediately turned red, and he didn’t know what to say. Su Yu saw this and couldn’t help but chuckle to himself. He didn’t expect such shyness from a man in his thirties. It’s apparent, the guy’s an old bachelor.

Fang Jiong approached and exchanged greetings with Su Yu, Qin Jiagui, etc., smiling with warm greetings, "It looks like we’ll have a feast tonight. Let me offer you a taste of a new dish I’ve been working on over the past few days." Then he beckons some villagers who are good at cooking, and proceeds to the newly built kitchen for preparatory work.

Shang Qi kept Meng Ting company, curious about their past few days’ experience. Meng Ting offered a simplified version of events. She deliberately withheld some critical news and only talked about obtaining the Jade Yellow Crystal Mine, which is currently held inside Ada.

Qin Jiagui asked around about Yuan Niping’s whereabouts and learned that she and her group had entered Demon Beast Mountain Range and had not yet returned.

Qin Jiagui was a little anxious, but there was nothing he could do but wait.

The party entered a stone room at the center which was generally used for discussing crucial matters. Outsiders were not allowed to enter casually.

Meng Ting instructed Zi Yu and Meng Jun to stand guard outside to prevent anyone from approaching. Then she took Shang Qi in. The enlarged Ada slowly extended its head in and started to vomit.

First came the Jade Yellow Crystal Mine, which was soon followed by a considerable spew of black ore particles.

Shang Qi watched with a shocked expression. Meng Ting had already quietly explained to him the formation of the "Life Ore".

Shang Qi was also a core member of Freedom Village and was someone that Meng Ting trusted greatly. Thus, the "Life Ore" matter didn’t have to be kept from him.

"We have a few things to handle now. The trip to Peach Blossom Town to buy White Valley Rice will be postponed."

After spewing out all the ore particles, Ada released a long breath. Her body quickly returned to a small size, and then she settled herself on Su Yu’s shoulder, murmuring, "Ada is dead tired. I’ll never do this kind of laborious work again."

Su Yu gently patted it and said, "You worked hard this time."

After explaining the matter about the Life Ore, Meng Ting also talked about killing Xia Jun and his people, and then added: "Now we need to prepare to deal with Wangdi Village. After that, we’ll figure out how to refine this Life Ore into Time Coins. Then, we’ll go to Peach Blossom Town to buy seeds and plant White Valley Rice. It will be the true beginning of building up Freedom Village."

Meng Ting provided a clear outline of future plans. But when Shang Qi heard that she planned to fight against Wangdi Village, he gasped in fright and looked astonished.

Meng Ting followed up quickly, "Uncle Shang, don’t be so shocked. I forgot to say, Su Yu is now a Sixth-order Powerhouse. We now have enough strength to confront them."

"Sixth-order..." Shang Qi’s surprise gradually turned into excitement, and he nodded and said, "In this case, we indeed have the power to fight back. Just that, there are at least six or seven Level Five fighters in Wangdi Village, along with numerous Fourth Order warriors. Although we have the power to challenge them, it’s still not exactly a reassuring prospect." He stroked his beard as he pondered this difficult situation.

Meng Ting spoke solemnly, "After everyone comes back, we need to discuss further. No one should go out tomorrow. Oh, about Bu Penglai, he hasn’t formed a Symbiotic Contract, right? How about him? Can we trust him?"

Shang Qi nodded and said, "I have observed him over the past few days. He is a pharmacology fanatic and seems very similar to me. Apart from medicines, he doesn’t interest in anything else. This kind of person is simple, and trustworthy."

Meng Ting nodded and said, "That sounds good. As long as he forms a Symbiotic Contract, even if he has another agenda, he won’t be able to stir up much trouble."

After discussing for a while, they dug a hole below the room to bury all of the Life Ore particles. As for the Jade Yellow Crystal Mine, it was kept here along with a large amount of Fire Elemental Energy Stones and a pile of iron ore.

"By the way, let’s see what we achieved these past few days." Shang Qi led them out of the stone house and they saw several makeshift wooden carts at the back of the compound.

"Just need to catch a few Horned Demon Horses, these will become horse carts. It will make transporting anything much more convenient in the future." Shang Qi was very pleased. Once the wheels issue was resolved, everything else was straightforward.

Meng Ting and the others looked around. In just four days, Freedom Village had undergone significant changes. Simple makeshift huts, wells, horse carts, kitchens, and many machines developed by Shang Qi were starting to take shape. A real Freedom Village had finally begun to take root.

As nighttime fell, the villagers who had gone out gradually returned, and Freedom Village was slowly buzzing with activity.

"Su Yu—" Suddenly, someone shouted.

Su Yu turned around and smiled brightly: "Old Zhang."

"Haha, it’s indeed you. You guys finally came back, haha." A group of people from the village entered, among them, a man who was laughing heartily, rushed over to them. The man was none other than old Zhang Zhongmou whom they hadn’t seen in a while.
