Tang Ming woke up slowly, unsure of how much ti had passed, and found himself lying on a comfortable bed in the bedroom.
"My head is killing ."
Tang Ming rubbed his head, propping up his body: "Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi!"
"Where is everyone?"
After calling out a few tis without seeing Su Xiaoxi’s shadow, Tang Ming got up gloomily and walked outside.
As he stepped out of the bedroom and took in the scene before him, Tang Ming was dumbfounded.
The villa looked like a complete ss, as if it had just been ransacked.
"What’s going on? Xiaoxi, where are you?"
Tang Ming imdiately jumped from the second floor to the hall, his face turning grim as he scanned the area. Could it be that the villa was attacked while he was unconscious?
Those daring enough to target the Su Family’s young lady in the Imperial City have got so nerve.
"Darling, save , save ."
Su Xiaoxi’s weak voice rang out.
Tang Ming turned his head towards the kitchen and saw Su Xiaoxi leaning against the door, covered in blood.
"Damn! What happened here?"
Tang Ming’s expression changed slightly as he rushed to Su Xiaoxi’s side.
"That, that woman from Japan went crazy and attacked after she woke up."
Su Xiaoxi clutched her chest and looked pitifully at Tang Ming: "She injured and then ran off."
"No way! Could it be my God Control Technique failed... Damn."
Tang Ming paused midway through his sentence, realizing where the problem lay.
Though he successfully controlled Tianye Yingzi, he fainted when she woke up, and she didn’t know she had been controlled.
"Did she not see when she woke up?"
Tang Ming carried Su Xiaoxi to the sofa, while tending to her injuries and questioning.
"After you fainted, I brought you to the room. She did ask about your whereabouts when she woke up, but I didn’t dare tell her."
Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming with concern: "You were in no condition to resist; I was worried she might hurt you."
"I... You should have told her!"
Tang Ming looked at Su Xiaoxi gloomily. When that woman saw him, she would naturally recognize her master and wouldn’t harm Su Xiaoxi.
But now that she hasn’t recognized her master and has fled, if she leaves Huaxia altogether, all his efforts would be wasted. Who knows if he’d get another chance to et her this lifeti.
"What’s wrong?"
Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming, puzzled. Had she done sothing wrong?
"It’s nothing, nothing. Let heal your injuries first."
Tang Ming sighed with relief that Tianye Yingzi had been rciful and hadn’t hurt Su Xiaoxi too seriously.
It seed that Tianye Yingzi had burst with energy upon waking, which ssed up the room, and Su Xiaoxi’s low cultivation was shaken and injured.
With Su Xiaoxi injured, Tang Ming couldn’t leave her behind, so he stayed in the villa to keep her company.
At Ming Group headquarters, in the director’s office, Fu Tianyou was hosting several guests.
"Director Fu, we’ve shown respect to Longya and are ready to leave the Imperial City. Why have you stopped us?"
An elderly man with flecks of gray in his hair wearing a gray Tang suit looked at Fu Tianyou, puzzled.
This man was Zhao Chui, the father of Zhao Tie and Zhao Gang, coming from a hidden family with cultivation at Half-step Martial General.
"Indeed! Although walking into the city might break so rules, we haven’t caused any disturbance, nor have we violated the rule against martial generals entering the world lightly. Director Fu, you aren’t holding us accountable, are you?"
Another middle-aged man in a white tracksuit also looked at Fu Tianyou with displeasure.
This man was Liu Zhenan, father of Six-star and Liu Chen, also a super strong Half-step Martial General.
Zhao Chui and Liu Zhenan were ordered to the Imperial City to investigate the Huaxia Secret Technique inheritor, also with other individual intentions.
"Your minds are too burdened."
Fu Tianyou laughed, warmly pouring tea for them: "We are all martial arts people, I know you have violated no rules or I’d not have the authority to intervene in your affairs, don’t you agree?"
"Then why are we held?"
"To be frank, I know why you’re here in Imperial City, partly to inquire about Huaxia Secret Technique, and partly about your missing disciples?"
Fu Tianyou smiled lightly.
"Hmm?"
Zhao Chui and Liu Zhenan’s faces changed slightly.
"Director Fu, do you know where my two sons are?"
Zhao Chui stared at Fu Tianyou intensely. Zhao Gang and Zhao Tie, the twin brothers, ca to handle Zhao Yan’s matter but never returned, leaving him furious.
"Where is my brother Liu Zhendong?"
Liu Zhenan’s face too was extrely ugly.
"Cough, cough, no need to rush, I’m keeping you here to confirm so things."
Fu Tianyou squinted, looking sympathetically at Zhao Chui: "Mr. Zhao, let first show you two bodies and see if you can identify them."
"Bodies? Are you saying my sons are dead?"
Zhao Chui’s face changed drastically.
"I’m not sure; you need to confirm it yourself."
Fu Tianyou quickly shook his head.
Then Fu Tianyou led Zhao Chui and Liu Zhenan to the cold storage, presenting two unrecognizable frozen bodies.
"This..."
On seeing the bodies, Zhao Chui hurried forward, fumbling over them.
"Mr. Zhao, what are you doing?"
Fu Tianyou asked, puzzled.
"These are my sons, my sons... who did this?"
After a mont, Zhao Chui wailed loudly.
"Brother Zhao, they are like this, are you sure they’re your sons?"
Liu Zhenan looked at Zhao Chui with an odd expression.
"Our Zhao Family practices the ancestral cultivation technique since childhood; their skeletons are different from ordinary people, and can be identified by touch."
Zhao Chui gritted his teeth, explaining, and then fiercely turned his gaze to Fu Tianyou: "Who did this?"
"From the surface, the two young n seem to have died accidentally."
Fu Tianyou sighed, handing a docunt to Zhao Chui, speaking regretfully: "According to the evidence, the two young n tried to force themselves on a woman, one was electrocuted, the other blown up."
"Nonsense! My Zhao Family n would never lack won!"
Zhao Chui instantly cursed.
"Please check the information, then I’ll share so unsupported inferences."
Fu Tianyou advised helplessly.
"Hmph!"
Zhao Chui snorted coldly, then started flipping through the docunts.
"What a tragedy! Brother Zhao’s sons were Nine-star Martial Masters, twins; they’re bound to be Zhao Family’s martial stars, didn’t expect such a fall."
Liu Zhenan sighed in pity.
"Don’t gloat, your useless sons were also crippled."
Zhao Chui glared angrily at Liu Zhenan.
"They... at least they’re alive, there’s hope for recovery, better than being dead."
Liu Zhenan retorted unhappily.
