Chapter 73 Inciting the Horse King?

Another person was quite idiotic, directly backstabbed by Liu Pang, to the point where his own woman and daughter became playthings in Liu Pang’s hands! This was the apocalypse! As long as one was strong and ruthless enough, they could seize everything from others. Wang Luo hadn't expected to encounter him here! "Kid, what are you looking at? Hurry up and bring that white horse under you over here for me!" Liu Pang, holding an axe, had a ferocious expression. Wang Luo originally intended to leave these people to Zhao Qingxuan and the others to handle, but Liu Pang and his group quickly surrounded him. "Boss, leave that big rooster to me!" Zhao Cheng, a subordinate by his side, whispered to Liu Pang. "Go to hell, you coward! You always go for the easiest target whenever trouble arises. Go, chop off the head of that white horse!" Liu Pang was furious, cursing and kicking Zhao Cheng in the rear, sending him flying not far from Wang Luo. This useless fellow, always shrinking back at the slightest inconvenience! Wang Luo poked the horse king’s rear with his scabbard. The horse king was absent-minded today, likely because it felt scorned by the white horse princess in its heart. The horse king looked at Wang Luo in confusion. "Damn, didn't you hear them saying they want to chop off Little White Dragon's head? Aren't you going to do anything?" Wang Luo was speechless. With your attitude, how are you going to chase a mare? The horse king froze for a moment, wondering what kind of reaction was expected. Then, it suddenly realized—Ah! These scoundrels actually wanted to chop off the head of its beloved mare? How could it tolerate this? "Hee-haw~~~" The horse king was enraged, flames swirling around its body, instantly transforming into a fiery steed! Then, with a "bang," Zhao Cheng, who had just been kicked by Liu Pang, hadn't even regained his footing before his head was exploded by the horse king's hoof! You want to chop off my beloved mare's head? Who the hell gave you the courage? "Holy crap, Boss, that horse breathes fire!" The subordinates around Liu Pang screamed in terror. This was the first time they had witnessed such a phenomenon. "What are you roaring about? I'm not blind!" Liu Pang grunted, his gaze fixed on the horse king engulfed in flames. His brow furrowed; this horse gave him a sense of danger! "Heh, let's talk this out. You are so mighty and majestic, I shall respectfully call you Horse King!" "Your Highness, Horse King, how about this? Come with me, and I’ll ensure you eat well and drink heartily. Furthermore, I promise that as long as Liu Mou has a bite to eat, you will never go hungry!" Liu Pang vowed earnestly. The horse king tilted its head, looking at the man strangely. Seeing the horse king seem to hesitate, Liu Pang spoke again, "As long as you follow me, I guarantee your status will be second to none. My subordinates will have to respectfully call you Master Horse!" Liu Pang was somewhat excited. Zhao Cheng was very strong; he was someone who awakened a peculiar ability on the fourth day. Yet, he was beheaded with just one strike. This proved that this black horse's strength was definitely greater than Zhao Cheng's. If he could obtain it, it would be like adding wings to a tiger! The horse king approached Liu Pang, gazing silently at him. "I swear to the heavens, everything I've said is the absolute truth!" "Ptooey~~~" And at this moment, the horse king spat a mouthful of saliva onto Liu Pang's face, drenching him like a drowned rat. The scene fell into silence. "Boss, this horse can spit?" "Go to hell! Kill it for me!" Liu Pang roared. However, as soon as the words fell, the horse king directly spat a fireball onto Liu Pang's head. "Ah~~~~" Liu Pang screamed, his entire body catching fire. He was merely a Black Iron-grade S-level Awakener, how could he possibly withstand the attack of a Bronze-grade Horse King? "He, they killed the Boss!" "Follow me to avenge the Boss!" A subordinate next to Liu Pang roared and charged forward with his knife. But after only a few steps, he realized something was wrong. Looking back, he saw that the people behind him had all raised their hands... surrendering! "I, damn it......" *Plop!* "My lords, please spare me, I'm just trying to make a living!" *Bang!* He was then beheaded by the horse king again. Wang Luo said nothing about all this, merely nodded at the horse king and rode Little White Dragon towards the villa. The horse king quickly followed, nudging its head close to Little White Dragon. To its dismay, it was once again met with disdain. The horse king was utterly confused. My actions just now were flawless, nothing went wrong! Not long after, Zhao Qingxuan and the other two returned. Their influence had expanded, and they no longer had to do everything themselves. Otherwise, they wouldn't be leaders but slaves! "We have dispatched people to take over their personnel and supplies!" Yang Shu said. Wang Luo was rinsing Little White Dragon's body, and upon hearing this, nodded. He wasn't too concerned about the expansion of their influence! "How has the collection of supplies been going recently?" "The recent harvest has been quite good. With more Awakened individuals now, we always send out teams led by S-grade or higher Awakeners, so the speed of collecting supplies has greatly increased." "Many villa basements are now piled high with grain and drinking water, but fresh vegetables and meat are scarce!" Zhao Qingxuan said. It had been over a month since the apocalypse began, and many supplies had spoiled, especially vegetables and fresh meat. Therefore, they hadn't collected useless items when gathering supplies. "It's fine. I have a lot of vegetables and meat collected. Even if there are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, we can eat for quite some time!" "And don't we also have livestock?" "They will breed again soon!" Wang Luo said calmly. In the period before, he had searched many live pigs, horses, cattle, and sheep around Anluo City. These were the true foundations for survival in the apocalypse. Otherwise, even if all the food in Anluo City were collected, how long could it last? This apocalypse wouldn't end in a few years. Sustainable development was the fundamental principle of survival. "Right, how's the collection of various seeds I mentioned before going?" Wang Luo asked, washing Little White Dragon’s body with the hose. "They've all been collected and are now stored in the villa!" Zhao Qingxuan placed the large hammer on the ground. "But Wang Luo, those are all ordinary seeds. Do we need to soak all of them in the contaminated black water first?" "Not all of them. Take out half first," Wang Luo shook his head. "The other half should be saved. When the soil is purified in the future, they will be the source of supplies for ordinary people!" The food grown from mutated seeds could only be consumed by Awakened individuals. As for the food sources for ordinary people, there were two: firstly, crops grown in purified soil; and secondly, ordinary crops that could adapt to contaminated soil!
