My Co-renting Lady Boss-Chapter 1581 - 1580: No Comment
"I’m his girlfriend."
Lu Xiaolu cooperated seamlessly.
"That’s right, she’s my girlfriend. If you’re targeting her, I need to find out why."
Tang Ming nodded repeatedly.
"You guys... are absolutely shameless."
Meng Xianjun was infuriated; what was discussed was a major secret of a few top Martial Arts Families, unexpectedly revealed just like that.
"Alright, alright, now I know you have no ill intentions towards Xiaolu, and even willing to abandon your cultivation and risk your life for her, then I’m relieved."
Tang Ming laughed as he stood up, suddenly curious as he looked at Meng Xianjun: "By the way, what exactly is the secret plan you mentioned?"
"I truly don’t know the specifics."
Meng Xianjun pouted, warily watching Tang Ming: "And don’t even think about extracting any information from me in the future."
"As long as it doesn’t harm the people around me, I don’t bother about your plans."
Tang Ming glanced at Meng Xianjun: "By the way, with such strong capabilities, which Hidden Force are you from?"
"No comment."
Meng Xianjun frowned, refusing without hesitation.
"So what’s your current cultivation level?"
"No comment."
"The name of your family’s or sect’s force, can you at least tell me that?"
"No comment."
...
Facing Tang Ming’s probing, Meng Xianjun responded with only four words.
"Hey! Had I known this, I should’ve adjusted the time to five minutes. Asked for so long, didn’t get any useful information."
Tang Ming sighed in frustration.
"Alright, alright, quickly help me take this thing off, it’s so heavy."
Lu Xiaolu impatiently tugged at the "bomb" on herself.
"Let me do it; this is a real bomb."
Tang Ming quickly stopped Lu Xiaolu, cautiously saying: "If this thing explodes, the three of us are done."
"A real bomb?"
Meng Xianjun and Lu Xiaolu exclaimed.
"Of course, if it’s not real, how could it fool you?"
Tang Ming chuckled: "But don’t worry, it’s not a timed bomb, it’s remote-controlled, and the remote is in his hand."
"Who?"
"Me!"
Just then, the masked man who had fled earlier emerged, holding a communicator and a red remote control.
"You guys are all in cahoots."
Meng Xianjun suddenly realized.
"I am Chu Batian of the Poison Sect."
Chu Batian removed his mask and smiled as he greeted Meng Xianjun: "A hero emerges in one’s youth. Didn’t expect that powerful Nine-star Martial Master couldn’t withstand in front of Young Master Meng, truly eye-opening."
"You crazy?"
Meng Xianjun looked at Chu Batian in confusion, this person looked only about twenty-five or six, yet sounded elderly.
"I..."
Chu Batian opened his mouth, then realized his appearance was no longer old.
"Done."
Tang Ming dismantled the bomb, took the remote from Chu Batian, and sighed with emotion: "Brother Meng, although I tricked you, it seems you didn’t reveal any earth-shattering secrets? Just mentioned top forces in Martial Arts plotting, Xiaolu is the key to their plot, nothing else mentioned, don’t mind."
"I really didn’t know, or you’d have gotten everything."
Meng Xianjun angrily glared at Tang Ming, "You’re really ruthless, killed several people just to get me to talk."
"Killed?"
Tang Ming was slightly startled, then realized, chuckling: "A petty man is not virtuous, a man without poison, isn’t a true man. I had no choice."
"Killing innocents, truly despicable."
Meng Xianjun was furious yet helpless.
"Hahaha."
Hearing this, Tang Ming and others laughed.
"What are you laughing at?"
Meng Xianjun frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Nothing, nothing. By the way, I truly didn’t expect Liu Family brothers to actually hire a Nine-star Martial Master to retaliate against me. If not for me tricking you, letting you misunderstand Liu Zhendong was a threat to Xiaolu, I’d be in danger."
Tang Ming quickly changed the topic, looking regretful.
"Yeah! How did that Nine-star Martial Master suddenly appear here?"
Chu Batian was puzzled, cautiously saying: "His appearance wasn’t part of the plan, I was nearly scared to death."
"Also beyond my expectation, but he truly died unjustly."
Tang Ming chuckled playfully, estimating Liu Zhendong never imagined dying so easily in the city.
"Wait a minute! If Liu Zhendong came to retaliate against you, doesn’t this mean our whereabouts are exposed? Those wanting to deal with you, but can’t act in school, won’t miss this chance, right?"
Lu Xiaolu, after tidying her clothes, worriedly looked at Tang Ming.
"Quickly, let’s go back."
Tang Ming’s expression changed slightly, realizing they were no longer at school, and his enemies weren’t just Liu Family brothers.
As they reached the wall, a figure dashed out.
"Wu Xiaoxia?"
Tang Ming’s expression changed drastically as he rushed forward.
"Oh my, even Wu Xiaoxia cooperates with your act?"
Meng Xianjun disdainfully hummed.
"This isn’t an act."
Tang Ming glanced at Meng Xianjun, reached to support Wu Xiaoxia: "What happened?"
"Someone attacked the manor, their strength was overwhelming, I wasn’t a match."
Wu Xiaoxia, blood on her lips, responded with urgent breaths.
"How can this be?"
Tang Ming quickly helped Wu Xiaoxia check injuries, astonished to find she was already an Eight-star Martial Master, but seriously wounded with internal injuries.
"Rest up with Meng Xianjun for now, I’ll treat you later."
Tang Ming looked at Meng Xianjun: "Brother Meng, this isn’t an act, something’s really wrong. Take care of Lu Xiaolu and Xiaoxia, I’ll check it out."
"Alright, we’ll be right there."
Meng Xianjun nodded, still warily watching Tang Ming, fearing it was still Tang Ming’s ploy.
To deceive Meng Xianjun, Tang Ming hadn’t informed anyone of the act, only Lu Xiaolu, the key figure, knew his plan and agreed to cooperate.
After Tang Ming, Meng Xianjun, and others left, Liu Mengting and the others were terrified by the successive murders, hiding in their rooms afraid to go out.
Shortly after Tang Ming and others left, two figures infiltrated the manor from another direction and approached their residence.
"Second brother, are you sure Tang Ming is here?"
Zhao Gang asked Zhao Tie, who was observing the hotel from downstairs.
"Young brother’s classmates were confident that Tang Ming and others came to this resort for a vacation, and we just confirmed it with the staff."
Zhao Tie squinted, finally landing his gaze on Tang Ming’s room: "That’s the room,-sixteenth floor, 1604."
