Chapter 71 The Main Force Moved Out

"Daniu, are you alright?"

Seeing Li Ping'an come up, Yan Ling, Zhang Hongqiang and the others quickly rushed over to check if Li Ping'an was injured.

Li Ping'an wiped off the sweat on his forehead and smiled, "I'm fine. Brother Qiang, Sister Ling, Sister Li, and Sister Jing, fortunately, I finally completed the task. I've brought the things back."

As he spoke, Li Ping'an took off the three lotus pods around his waist.

When Yan Ling and the others saw the three lotus pods, they were all a bit dazed.

Zhang Xiaojing could not help but whisper, "Oh my god, are these odd melons of lotus flowers?"

Zhang Hongqiang was also shocked, "My goodness! Daniu, you brat! What can I say about you? I can't call you Daniu anymore. I should call you 'Mysterious Dagger Li'!"

Yan Li's pretty face was also full of joy. She looked at the lotus pods and then secretly looked at Li Ping'an. Her pretty face flushed.

However, Yan Ling glared at Zhang Hongqiang and quickly came over to hold Li Ping'an by the arm, blaming, "Daniu, why did you take such a risk just now? Do you know how dangerous it was just now? You scared me to death!"

Li Ping'an gave a silly smile, "Sister Ling, don't worry. I'm okay. I'll be fine after a rest. By the way, did you see that big toad just now?"

When the several of them heard Li Ping'an mention this, their expressions changed.

Yan Ling said, "Daniu, the toad was so big. It seemed that it had evolved into a demon. I'm afraid that it was at least at the peak of the Awakening Stage, or even beyond the Awakening Stage. This is a place of trouble. We can't stay here for long. We have to leave here as soon as possible!"

Zhang Hongqiang hurriedly nodded and said, "Daniu, we used a lot of firepower just now. If those red-haired monkeys come over, it will not be fun. We have to make preparations in advance."

Li Ping'an nodded. Beside him, Yan Li had already brought Li Ping'an a kettle, and there was shyness on her pretty face.

Li Ping'an gulped down a few mouthfuls of water and calmed down quite a bit. He pointed at the three lotus pods and said, "We should leave here as soon as possible. However, before that, we have to divide the treasures first. Sister Ling, Brother Qiang, do you know about these lotus pods?"

Yan Ling and the others observed these lotus pods carefully, but they all shook their heads.

Yan Ling said, "Daniu, variations were very fierce in the mountains. They were no longer the species that had been planted in scale before the new era. Every odd melon is unique. I really know nothing about them. Hongqiang, Little Li, Little Jing, have you seen this kind of lotus pods?"

Zhang Hongqiang, Yan Li, and Zhang Xiaojing also shook their heads.

Zhang Hongqiang scratched the back of his head and said, "These lotus seeds shouldn't be odd melons, right? I've seen odd melons before. These lotus seeds aren't as powerful as odd melons. However, there are quite a lot of lotus seeds. I guess the effect of one lotus pod with so many lotus seeds will not be inferior to that of an odd melon!"

Li Ping'an smiled, "Brother Qiang, Sister Ling, there are three lotus pods here altogether and about more than forty lotus seeds. There are five of us, eight for each, and the rest are mine. What do you say?"

"Well..."

The four of them were stunned.

They only kept a lookout. Li Ping'an was the one who did everything to obtain these lotus seeds.

Yan Ling hurriedly said, "Daniu, these are yours. We didn't contribute much. We'll just take one lotus seed each."

Zhang Hongqiang, Yan Li, and Zhang Xiaojing also hurriedly expressed that they could not accept Li Ping'an's such valuable gifts.

After all, these lotus seeds were too precious!

Although they did not know the exact value of these lotus seeds right now, they believed they were probably not much inferior to odd melons!

Although they didn't offer substantial help, Li Ping'an was giving them the lotus seeds for nothing. How could they accept them at ease?

Li Ping'an frowned slightly.

A moment later, he said, "Sister Ling, how about this? I take half of these three lotus pods, and the rest are for you. We're a team and a family. If you reject again, then I'll be unhappy!"

"Well..."

After hesitating for a while, Yan Ling and the others nodded and agreed.

Because at this moment, they knew that their brother, Daniu, was really treating them like his own family members.

Seeing that they had accepted the offer, Li Ping'an heaved a sigh of relief.

Before the new era, the famous Macao gambling tycoon, Mr. Ho, once said, "It is only good when everyone is good!"

Li Ping'an deeply believed in this motto!

Although Li Ping'an was talented and powerful, he was alone after all!

No matter how powerful one was, his strength was still limited in many cases.

Li Ping'an was born at the bottom of the social ladder. It was impossible for him to have subordinates, nor did he have brothers or sisters to help him. Thus, if he wanted to become stronger and go further, he must build up his networks on his own!

Yan Ling, Zhang Hongqiang and the others were indeed not strong enough, but then again, their strength could be improved in various ways, but loyalty wasn't something one could obtain whenever in need.

With Li Ping'an as the host, these lotus seeds were soon properly distributed.

Li Ping'an took the best red lotus pod as well as eight ordinary lotus seeds. Yan Ling and the others each took five ordinary lotus seeds.

However, Li Ping'an knew that the red lotus pod was very mysterious and it might have a great effect, so he gave each of them a red lotus seed.

In this way, the distribution was even fairer. Yan Ling and the others had more confidence in Li Ping'an's qualities, and they were more attracted to him.

After the distribution, Li Ping'an's expression became solemn and he said in a low voice, "Sister Ling, Brother Qiang, although we have succeeded this time, the sound of firearms just now definitely could not escape the notice of Young Master Can's main force. We have to find a way to deal with this!"

Yan Ling and the others nodded. By this time, Li Ping'an had become the backbone of Team 97 undoubtedly.

Yan Ling hurriedly said, "Daniu, you're our leader now. We'll follow your instructions! We're a family, so let's talk turkey with no more words of courtesy!"

Li Ping'an nodded heavily, "Sister Ling, that's best. Come on, let's discuss it carefully..."

The reason why Li Ping'an shared the spoils with Yan Ling and the others was that he trusted their personalities.

Besides, they were not from rich families, so they could definitely form an alliance with Li Ping'an and could even be used by him.

Now that the benefits were properly distributed and they were of one mind, Li Ping'an naturally wanted to gain extra benefits from Young Master Can.

Soon, they finished their discussion and prepared to report the situation here to Young Master Can, leaving the rest lotuses to him.

After all, these lotus pods were easy to take, but not easy to consume. Not only that big toad, but those red-haired monkeys had also been keeping an eye on them.

Li Ping'an even hoped that Young Master Can's main force could come over and fight against the main force of the red-haired monkeys while killing the big toad!

In this way, the situation would be more complicated, which was more in line with Li Ping'an's interests.

Of course, he would definitely not tell Yan Ling and the others about this.

Before Li Ping'an and the others could report to Young Master Can's main force, the main force had sent a message to ask what was going on here.

The group had already reached an agreement. Yan Ling respectfully reported their edition of the story to the main force.

However, she only said that the red-haired monkeys were fighting with a tentacle to snatch lotuses. She didn't tell them about the big toad.

In less than two hours, the main force of hundreds of people rushed over. Even Young Master Can, who had never shown up, came in person!

They rushed over as fast as they could. Everyone was drenched in sweat. Even Young Master Can's forehead was covered with sweat.

Young Master Can was wearing an expensive camouflage alloy battle suit and a pair of exquisite black battle boots, with a mysterious white bone necklace hanging around his neck.

He checked the terrain personally and then met Li Ping'an and the others.

After learning that Li Ping'an was the first to discover the abnormality here, he nodded at Li Ping'an with appreciation. "Little Wang, you are brilliant! You will surely be rewarded for your contributions! Alright, you guys have a good rest now. The main force will take care of the subsequent things! After the job is done, I will offer you generous rewards!"

"Thank you, Young Master Can."

Li Ping'an quickly replied with a respectful smile and returned to his team.

Young Master Can had many experts by his side, so he was naturally quite aggressive.

Soon, all sorts of powerful firearms and equipment were transported here from the stronghold in the rear. Several ropes that were much stronger than vines hung down to the bottom of the cliff.

Many well-equipped experts with all kinds of advanced firearms began to build emplacements on the cliff.

At this time, Li Ping'an and the others were free. It was time for them to have a rest, and they had retreated to another mountain to rest.

Seeing that the main force was acting with such great fanfare, Zhang Hongqiang could not help but whisper, "Daniu, do you think that... Young Master Can can handle that big toad?"

Li Ping'an narrowed his eyes and looked at the overall situation calmly, but he did not answer.

Judging by Young Master Can's manpower and firearms, it should not be a big problem to deal with that big toad, but what made Li Ping'an even more worried was the group of strange red-haired monkeys.

No matter how strong it was, there was only one big toad after all. What was more, it obviously had its limitations. It seemed that it could not leave this water body.

However, those red-haired monkeys were clearly organized like an army!

Moreover, according to what he had learned from Lin Jianjia, Li Ping'an was one hundred percent sure that the king of these red-haired monkeys had already risen to prominence as early as in the chaotic period before the new era!

By this time, several decades had passed, and no one knew exactly how powerful it was now.

Needless to say, it must have surpassed the Awakening Stage!

How dare Li Ping'an ignore it and not take it seriously?

A moment later, Li Ping'an said, "Brother Qiang, no one can say for sure about this matter. The mountains nowadays are too scary. However, we have to get prepared first. We desire for nothing more now. We must prepare a way out in case we really encounter something terrible!"

Zhang Hongqiang nodded and said, "Daniu, don't worry. We've rested for so long. I'll ask Yan Ling to prepare some better food. Let's eat and drink to our satisfaction. If anything happens, we'll leave first!"

Li Ping'an nodded in agreement.

Soon, Yan Ling and Zhang Xiaojing began to prepare dinner, while Li Ping'an, Zhang Hongqiang, and Yan Li observed the situation carefully.

Obviously, Zhang Hongqiang understood Yan Ling's intentions, so he left time and space for Li Ping'an and Yan Li, while he himself chuckled and hid on the other side.

Li Ping'an was a little embarrassed, but obviously he could not say anything.

Yan Li was very beautiful. Although she was slightly inferior to Luohan, Jiang Zhiyan, and Lin Jianjia, she could get at least 95 points.

In particular, her small rosy diamond-shaped mouth and her little sexy buttocks were very attractive.

However, at this moment, Yan Li's pretty face turned red. Unlike before, she didn't dare to tease and flirt with Li Ping'an without restrain. Instead, she sat beside Li Ping'an with a faint fragrance, like a gentle pretty girl from a humble family.

To avoid awkward silence, Li Ping'an had no choice but to chat with Yan Li in a low voice while observing the movements of Young Master Can's main force carefully at the same time.

However, Li Ping'an did not notice that Zhang Xiaojing, who was helping Yan Ling cook not far away, kept biting her red lips.

Although she did not show anything on her face, she was secretly looking at Li Ping'an and Yan Li from the corners of her eyes.

Yan Li was a cheerful person. After chatting with Li Ping'an for a while, she relaxed and talked with him non-stop.

Seeing that, Zhang Xiaojing bit her red lips even more tightly!

She thought to herself, "For Yan Ling, her younger sister is more intimate than me, her junior sister apprentice! It's so annoying that my senior brother apprentice doesn't even dare to interfere! However, Yan Li, don't think that you've won right now! It's not certain whom Daniu will choose! "
