Did you see Sister Ding and Dr. Yang?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled and said: \"I saw them. I wasn’t comfortable leaving this place unattended, so I had them guard that side for the night while I came back to report that all’s well here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Kai, full of smiles, said: \"Wu Ying already came back to report. Did all the superpower users at the mine’s shelter die?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled and said: \"Yes, Tian Wei went mad and blew up a lot of the mines. Those superpower users watching didn’t escape in time and were all killed in the explosion. Everything is fine here, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing happened here; it’s been very quiet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, keep up the patrol, I’m heading back now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure, go on. Sister Mei has been asking about you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled and quickly returned to his bamboo house’s cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stone gate of the cave was already closed, but faint light seeped through the gaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan patted the stone gate: \"Sister Mei, I’m back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother! Is it you, little brother?\" Sister Mei’s voice came through, filled with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hurried over, took a look through the ventilation hole, and when she saw it was Liang Yuan, she quickly opened the heavy stone gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A burst of warm air flowed from the house, originating from the sunflower in the living room, emitting warm sunlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei, along with Song Wen and Dong Yan, came out to greet Liang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Liang, are you alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Yuan, did you see Ding Yan? They went to find you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Wen and Dong Yan quickly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei pulled Liang Yuan inside and said: \"Come in first, welcome home. Have you eaten? I’ll make something for you. Do you want to take a shower? You’re all wet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her concern for Liang Yuan more and more reflected the look of a good wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled and said: \"I’m actually hungry. I rushed back just to eat your dinner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei immediately beamed with joy, her eyes almost overflowing with affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Wen and Dong Yan exchanged a glance and tactfully stepped aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Wen said: \"Uh, Sister Mei, since Brother Liang is back, we won’t stay here then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Yan also said: \"Sister Mei, we’re heading back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei quickly said: \"Hey, why go back? There’s plenty of room here, stay. I’ll make a few dishes, and we’ll all eat together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, we’ve already eaten.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, I’m not hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two quickly waved their hands in refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei said: \"Today, your Brother Liang captured the mine shelter. It’s a big event. Aren’t you going to celebrate with him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No more talking, come and help me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women exchanged looks, their faces blushing slightly, and they instinctively glanced at Liang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled: \"Stay, all of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women giggled and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the three women busied themselves in the kitchen, Liang Yuan went outside, cut off the remaining meat from the pangolin, preparing to share some with the patrolling team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder if there’s a skill bead inside this pangolin’s head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan’s heart stirred as he thought of the pangolin’s skull. He immediately pried it open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no skill bead inside, instead, there was a piece of bone with patterns on it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, a rune!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan was overjoyed to find a rune!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly washed it with rainwater and examined the rune skull closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This rune skull was about the same size as the previous one he found, with square and neat patterns, looking like a piece of stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan’s heart moved: \"Could this be a defensive rune?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Liang Yuan suddenly became excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pangolin is considered an earth attribute mutant beast. If it’s a defensive rune, combined with the revealed official rune creation techniques, wouldn’t he possibly be able to create an earth attribute defense rune?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Digging the cave already has the risk of collapse. If I can use a defense rune to reinforce the dug-out cave, it would ensure the cave’s safety.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And with the sea tide coming soon, who knows if the ordinary stone gate can withstand the mutant beast hordes emerging from the sea tide. If I can develop a defense rune, it will come in handy just in time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan became excited and temporarily put aside the meat cutting, quickly storing the meat and running to the study to start studying the rune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having had the experience of creating Spirit Turtle Shield Runes before, he was quite proficient in this rune study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first step was still to simulate the rune patterns using spiritual power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he mastered the rune technology himself, he would attempt to draw it, then carve it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this wasn’t something that could be done in one go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was the Spirit Turtle Shield Rune or the Puppet Thread Rune, he had studied for a long time before creating them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It required repeated practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only two days left before the sea tide arrives, I wonder if I have enough time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan quickly started practicing. Thanks to his increased spiritual power, his control and manipulation of spiritual power had also reached a new level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, Yang Mei’s knocking interrupted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother, it’s time to eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan came back to his senses, put down his practice temporarily, and came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei wore a loose apron, which still couldn’t conceal her ample figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you go straight to the study upon returning?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was studying a rune I just found.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mei smiled and glanced back, and taking advantage of Song Wen and Dong Yan not looking their way, she quickly pecked him on the cheek and said: \"Come eat quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the living room, a table full of dishes awaited, with fish, meat, and a balanced mix of vegetables and proteins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dishes like these could only be afforded by Liang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>",998,"2026-05-29T17:51:52.190Z","2026-06-01T04:29:53.098Z",1,"novelbin.me","74de574fb9f6006565cc3e9cb497661db5cd12115254108fa1e08e509c27f062","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-532","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-530",1292,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-cover.jpg"]
