167: Chapter 167 Lu Li's Little Maid
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!
In Director Wei's office, Wei Heng's desk was being slammed with a thunderous roar.
"As expected, it hasn't even been a month and these Disaster Beast are already trying to encroach on human territory."
Wei Heng looked at the report Xiao Xu had brought up, so angry he nearly smashed the desk to pieces.
"Where is Lu Li? Hasn't she been keeping an eye on the Disaster Beast' movements?"
"Where is Lu Li?"
"Why are you the one bringing me this report?"
Wei Heng took a deep breath and frowned at Xiao Xu.
Of course, he wasn't angry with Xiao Xu; he just felt a bit powerless.
If he had the Great Senior's ability, he could kill all these restless Disaster Beast with a single palm strike, and none of this would be happening.
Unfortunately, the Great Senior was too merciful.
"Captain Lu is currently following the Disaster Beast to Shannan City..."
"She's following her m... she's following them?"
"Then she's actually quite sharp..."
"Is Jiang Qin still in class?"
"Send a message to Jiang Qin first and see if she can help contact the Great Senior."
"Um..." Xiao Xu added, "How about..."
"How about you flip down a couple more pages first?"
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Wei Heng flipped through two more pages.
"The Great Senior is following them?"
"Ah?"
"The Great Senior is following them?"
"Why didn't you put this on the first page!"
"Well, Captain Lu specifically instructed me to put this at the end, and then let me..."
As Xiao Xu spoke, she took her phone out of her pocket.
At that moment, a video call was active on her phone.
"Captain Lu, you talk to Wei Heng. I'll be going now."
Wei Heng: "?"
Xiao Xu put the phone down and quickly walked out.
With the creak of the closing door, Wei Heng and Lu Li's face on the phone screen stared at each other.
"Lu Li, what exactly is going on?"
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!" Seeing Wei Heng's constipated expression, Lu Li burst into a long laugh and said:
"Old man, are you really that angry?"
"Too bad, I'm off to visit my back garden. See ya!"
After Lu Li finished speaking, she hung up the phone immediately.
Wei Heng: "?"
...
...
"Aren't you afraid of making Wei Heng sick with anger? He must be at least sixty, right?"
Fang Xun, standing beside Lu Li, felt that she was being a bit of a brat.
Why was this person acting like a delinquent girl!
"It's fine. Back then, I soaked those monkey hairs in water for him to drink. His health is great now."
"monkey hair? You can soak monkey hair in water?" Fang Xun was shocked to hear Lu Li say this.
You can drink that stuff? What kind of monkey is so powerful?
"Oh, you know, it's those few hairs you left behind."
Fang Xun: "..."
Right, he remembered what that was all about.
If he could do it over again, Fang Xun would absolutely not do that.
To be honest, it was a bit disgusting.
The horse talisman arrived far too late.
"Alright, don't worry about it. Let's think about how to build my garden instead."
"Shannan City is too big, and we have too few people to live in it."
"But as a garden, it's not too big at all."
"Should we turn half of it into an amusement park? We could even charge for tickets or something."
Lu Li's idea was pretty good; an amusement park would be lively.
"It could be an amusement park," Jiu Ying nodded from the side.
"However, the Wei Shenme Bureau won't approve us doing business independently, so we can't charge admission."
"If you want, it could be a public welfare project, so everyone can come and play for free."
"That works too," Lu Li nodded immediately.
"You Disaster Beast, I have to say, are a bit too strong. I'm curious how we managed to withstand your attacks at all."
As Lu Li spoke, she unconsciously patted the mount beneath her.
This was also a Disaster Beast.
In the past, facing such a Disaster Beast, half of Dongcheng City would have had to sound the alarms.
But now, it was merely being used as a temporary mount.
"To be honest, we find it strange too," Jiu Ying said, looking at Lu Li.
"Every one of you humans is an independent individual, completely different from the Remnant Beastss we produce."
"Why is it that you can shout about things like friendship, protection, or home, and then charge forward to blow yourselves up?"
"When you're dead, everything is gone."
"Aren't you all afraid of dying?"
"You guys are actually capable of being afraid of death?" Lu Li asked in shock.
After fighting Disaster Beast for all these years, she knew they would run, but she didn't expect them to be this afraid of death.
"If you die, everything is gone. Besides, even being injured is terrifying. If you're injured, it's very easy to die."
Jiu Ying looked at the Disaster Beast beneath them and said:
"If he were injured and his combat power was compromised, I would eat him without hesitation to complete my evolution."
"You're saying that right in front of him!" Lu Li was even more shocked.
"If I were injured, he would eat me just the same. This is normal," Jiu Ying waved her hand, indifferent.
"No, isn't there any emotion between you?" Lu Li found it hard to believe; these Disaster Beast were clearly organized, and there was even such a thing as a Disaster Beast Princess.
"There is, but if he's injured, it's only right that he helps me evolve."
"That's the only way to give our race a better advantage."
"Otherwise, should I wait until he's completely dead to eat him? By then, most of the energy will have dissipated. What a waste."
"Don't you ever consider providing treatment?"
"Wouldn't that mean we lose a combatant for a short period of time?" Jiu Ying asked, puzzled.
That clearly wasn't cost-effective.
"You guys... just what kind of world is that?" Lu Li could only sigh at this.
No wonder they were so easy to recruit. To them, the human world was probably no different from heaven.
"You're the strange ones. When someone is injured, you even drag down several other combatants to help them."
"Some even charge forward and blow themselves up just to cover that wounded person."
"Abandoning them is clearly the best choice."
"That's why we won," Lu Li said, looking seriously at Jiu Ying.
"Don't go flattering yourself. If it weren't for Brother, the fighting would still be going on right now." Jiu Ying immediately gave Lu Li a 'you're a little dummy' look.
"If it weren't for the Great Senior's kind heart, you would have all been slapped to death by now!" Lu Li suddenly became unhappy.
"Tch, Brother likes our Young Miss, so he wouldn't slap us all to death!" Jiu Ying leaned closer to Fang Xun and gave Lu Li a provocative look.
Even if she was Brother's woman, not everyone could stand on equal footing with the Young Miss!
The Young Miss definitely wouldn't mind me being mean to this Lu Li person.
"You! Just you wait, when the time comes, I'm going to make you come and be my maid!!!!!!" Lu Li was about to invoke her ultimate authority.
"Don't forget, I have the power to approve what you can and can't do. Don't be too arrogant, you Disaster Beast!"
"Then so be it!" Jiu Ying put her hands on her hips. "Even if I'm your maid, Brother still likes our Young Miss more."
Lu Li: "?!"
