"You..."
Liu Gaoze’s face changed dramatically, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at Tang Ming.
The previous two matters had already shocked Liu Gaoze enough, but this third revelation was even more astounding.
For Liu Gaoze, whether it was a promotion or the Liu Family becoming the tenth great family, it was all like flowers in a mirror, the moon in the water, utterly illusory.
But being able to heal old wounds and restore his cultivation was of imnse significance to him.
To forge iron, one’s own strength must be strong. As long as he could restore his cultivation and quickly beco a powerful cultivator, only then could the Liu Family truly grow stronger.
In fact, Tang Ming had also considered this, using the Sun Family as a lesson.
The Sun Family gained rapid success as the tenth great family of the Imperial City due to Sun Zhuangjia’s imnse power. But once Sun Zhuangjia was crippled, the Sun Family imdiately collapsed. This highlighted the flaw of relying on one individual.
To prevent the Liu Family from repeating the sa mistake, Tang Ming decided to heal Liu Gaoze’s body and fully assist him in enhancing his cultivation in the future.
Only then, when Tang Ming faced trouble again in the future, could the Liu Family rely on their own strength to continue advancing, without crumbling instantly like the Sun Family.
"Could it be that Uncle Liu is not satisfied with this third matter from ?"
Seeing Liu Gaoze staring at him without speaking, Tang Ming asked with a playful smile.
"No, I’m just at a loss for words on how to thank you."
Liu Gaoze ca to his senses, wiping his eyes, "I never thought there would be a day when my cultivation could actually be restored. I’m too excited."
"This is just the beginning; the Liu Family will get better and better."
Tang Ming understood Liu Gaoze’s emotions and comforted him with a smile.
"Yes, the Liu Family will definitely beco better and better."
Liu Gaoze nodded, his voice trembling, "If my cultivation can truly be restored, perhaps there will be a chance for ng Ting to et her mother in the future. I will definitely put in my best effort to cultivate."
"Uh..."
Tang Ming opened his mouth, unsure of what to say. He had t Liu ngting’s mother, a presence so powerful it left him breathless, with an identity and background terrifying beyond compare.
Not to ntion the enigmatic Ru ng, even the elder of the ng Family who appeared on the martial arts competition jury was a formidable existence unmatched by ordinary people.
But even such a powerful entity like the ng Family was just a servant of Ru ng. One can imagine how unattainable Ru ng’s status was.
Liu Gaoze’s desire to pursue Ru ng based on his own strength seed truly challenging.
"Young Tang, don’t you believe in ?"
Seeing Tang Ming in such a state, Liu Gaoze smiled oddly.
"No, no, I’m just... moved, just moved."
Tang Ming smiled awkwardly.
"I know what you’re thinking, but I don’t bla you because you have no idea what a genius I was back then."
Liu Gaoze straightened his body, puffed out his chest, "ngting’s mother is absolutely a chosen daughter standing at the pinnacle of the martial arts world, and for to have won her heart back then, how could I have done so without any ability?"
"This..."
Tang Ming’s face changed slightly, and after a careful thought, he realized that with Ru ng’s status and formidable strength, there truly was no reason for her to like soone as ordinary as Liu Gaoze.
There could only be one possibility: Liu Gaoze might indeed have been an unparalleled genius back then, which was the only thing that could have captivated soone like Ru ng. It’s just a sha that this genius was later sabotaged and fell from grace.
"I’m not bragging, but once you heal my injuries and restore my cultivation, you’ll naturally know if I’m lying."
Liu Gaoze chuckled, his tone filled with pride.
"Alright then!"
Tang Ming pursed his lips, "Uncle Liu, if you could spare a few days, I’ll quickly help you regain your strength."
"There’s no rush for that."
Liu Gaoze thought for a mont and said casually, "Anyway, it’s been many years already, so I’m not in a hurry. Do you have anything else? If not, I want to discuss sothing with you."
"I’ve finished discussing matters about you and the Liu Family, but I have one last thing about myself."
Tang Ming pondered for a mont then looked seriously at Liu Gaoze, "At this point, I believe there should be a conclusion regarding my marriage with Liu ngting. Regardless of who the third party is, I feel the engagent can be called off."
"Is this your fourth matter?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Gaoze’s expression beca peculiar.
"Consider it as such."
Tang Ming nodded.
"I’m afraid this matter cannot be as you wish."
Liu Gaoze shook his head, slowly sitting down in a chair.
You’re kidding!
The Liu Family managed to beco the tenth great family, Liu Gaoze rose to a high position in the Dark Group, and there’s even a possibility of recovering his cultivation—all thanks to Tang Ming.
At this point, Liu Gaoze would never agree to dissolve the engagent with Tang Ming, and he was incredibly thankful he stumbled upon Tang Ming on the train years ago and managed to lure him to his side. Otherwise, who knows who would be reaping these massive benefits now.
"What do you an by that?"
Tang Ming frowned, looking at Liu Gaoze with dissatisfaction, "If it’s rely because of a third party, then with my current strength and energy, I can absolutely identify the third-party force that certified this marriage and dissolve the engagent."
"Young Tang, it’s not as simple as you think."
Liu Gaoze sighed, then reached down to open a safe under the desk, taking out a sandalwood-patterned brocade box.
Liu Gaoze placed the brocade box on the table, gently caressing it as he sighed, "Regarding your marriage with ng Ting, it involves many things, including your own background and matters related to ng Ting’s mother, as well as the grievances of the older generation. It simply cannot be dissolved."
"What?"
Tang Ming sat up abruptly, staring at Liu Gaoze in disbelief, "How could my marriage with Liu ngting be related to my own background?"
"Didn’t your master tell you?"
Liu Gaoze asked, puzzled, as he looked at Tang Ming.
"About what?"
Tang Ming watched Liu Gaoze nervously.
"Your marriage with ngting wasn’t arranged by your master, but by your own biological parents."
Liu Gaoze looked at Tang Ming with a peculiar expression.
Tang Ming jumped up, looking bewildered at Liu Gaoze, his voice trembling, "I... I never knew about this. Wasn’t this marriage arranged by the old fellow?"
"Senior Tang Cha was rely the executor of this marriage."
Liu Gaoze opened his mouth, choosing his words carefully, "Simply put, the engagent between you and ngting was an agreent between ngting’s mother’s family and your parents."
"Huh?"
At these words, Tang Ming beca even more confused.
"Let put it this way!"
Liu Gaoze tapped the brocade box on the table, "I have no authority to make any decisions regarding the marriage agreent between you and ng Ting, and even your master doesn’t have the right to dissolve the engagent."
"Really? Are you trying to deceive just because you don’t want to call off the engagent?"
Tang Ming looked at Liu Gaoze with suspicion, "I’ve been an orphan all my life. Even now, I don’t know who my parents are. How could they possibly arrange this marriage for ?"
