My Co-renting Lady Boss

Unexpectedly for Han Ya, Chu Li shook his head and then said, "The assassin who escaped this time is the instructor of the Black Skull, Suo Ming. You all thought that our Chu Family had a conflict with Tang Ming, the Hall Master, so we came to cause trouble. In fact, I am here to protect Hall Master Tang Ming’s safety."

"Suo Ming."

Han Ya raised his eyebrows, and Mu Ta, standing beside him, also showed a drastic change in expression.

"That’s right, so their investigation is likely to have omissions. I think it’s better for me to investigate."

Chu Li looked at Tang Ming with a smile.

Tang Ming snorted: "Whether it’s Suo Ming, it’s just a claim from Senior Chu. Isn’t it?"

"How dare you speak to an ancestor like that."

Chu Kuang glared and scolded Tang Ming, pointing his finger at him.

Tang Ming waved his hand, and a wave of energy hit Chu Kuang directly in the face: "Point your damn finger at me again, and I’ll chop it off."

"Tang Ming, watch your respect. Actually, Elder Chu is also thinking about what’s best for you."

Han Ya was silent for a long time, then spoke.

Tang Ming nodded repeatedly: "Alright then, since Tower Master says so, let me make it clear. I’ve set up a formation in my residence. If someone comes in, I’m sure to know. But, no assassin has ever entered my residence."

"Haha, if the assassin is in league with you, naturally you would say that."

Chu Ying, standing beside Chu Li, said with a smile.

In the eyes of the Chu Family, Tang Ming already seemed flustered. Otherwise, he wouldn’t stop Chu Li from searching.

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on Chu Li: "Is that the idea of Senior Chu? Then let’s do this. I, Tang Ming, will sit here. If you, the Chu Family, don’t find the assassin today, then what?"

"And what if we do find it?"

Chu Li’s voice was somewhat hoarse but very compelling.

"Hahaha, if it’s found, then the one who plotted to assassinate Elder Chu is me, Tang Ming. You can take my head. But if it’s not found, is Elder Chu willing to exchange your head for my little life?"

Tang Ming laughed heartily, looking at Chu Li.

Chu Li’s mouth twitched. He reached out and grabbed Chu Ying beside him: "He’s the one chasing it. If we don’t find anything, I’ll leave his head with you."

"Alright, let’s do as Senior Chu says."

Tang Ming closed his eyes, and Han Ya felt very awkward.

After all, Tang Ming is the Hall Master of the Medical Hall in Tianpo City, yet they couldn’t protect Tang Ming, which for him was also a kind of shame. He couldn’t say anything about Tang Ming’s attitude towards him either.

Chu Li’s body floated in mid-air above Tang Ming’s residence. His originally black pupils turned blood-red, and silver-white threads swam within his eyes.

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Chu Li, Shan Ze, standing beside Tang Ming, hurriedly released Immortal Energy to envelop Tang Ming.

Mu Ta also stepped forward to stand by Tang Ming’s side.

Tian Huansheng deployed an Immortal Energy Barrier, enveloping the few people beside him. Only Han Ya stood still, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Chu Li’s strength hadn’t improved over the years, but he appeared more eerie than before.

What Han Ya didn’t know was that Chu Li hadn’t exactly not improved; he had indeed been seriously injured earlier. If it wasn’t for Suo Ming to assassinate Chu Li.

Chu Li wouldn’t have dared to come to Tianpo City. After all, even in his current state, he couldn’t take on the combined might of the three giants of Tianpo.

Using a secret technique to investigate, yet there was still no trace of the Black Skull assassin within Tang Ming’s residence.

If Chu Li hadn’t investigated the few people within Tang Ming’s residence beforehand, he might even suspect that one of Tang Ming’s people was with the Black Skull.

But after scanning around, he could only sigh and land beside Chu Ying.

"Hall Master Tang, he’s yours now. Let’s go."

Chu Li turned and walked out.

Tang Ming opened his eyes with a cold smile: "Senior Chu, what use is it to leave your Chu Family’s elder with me? I am not the ancestor of the Chu Family, nor am I the Tower Master of Tianpo City, so I have no authority over his life and death."

Chu Li’s steps paused.

Chu Ying was already trembling all over, seeing Chu Li turn to look at him. Chu Ying knelt down with a thud: "I-I really saw it; that assassin did enter Hall Master Tang Ming’s residence. Right, no sooner had the assassin entered than that old guy Guo Muye left. Not long after, Tang Ming and Guo Muye returned. They wouldn’t rush back like that without reason."

Chu Ying’s eyes lit up as he looked at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at Chu Ying and said: "Keep fabricating. Before you claimed the assassin was in my house, now you say I and Elder Guo are involved with the assassin. Then why don’t I say a thing or two: Your Chu Family hired the Black Skull’s assassin to assassinate me, failed, then sent the Chu Family’s elder, who also failed, and now the Chu Family’s ancestor is here? I’ll ask you this: Is Tianpo City the Chu Family’s Tianpo City or Jiulong Tower’s Tianpo City?"

"Enough, Elder Chu, we’ve endured enough. If you don’t give Hall Master Tang an explanation, I’ll report this to Jiulong Tower. I believe the nine Tower Masters will provide an explanation to both our Tianpo Tower and Hall Master Tang."

Han Ya looked coldly at Chu Li.

Chu Li’s eyes shot out a murderous gleam, his hand landing directly on Chu Ying’s head.

Splat.

Blood and brain matter splattered everywhere. Chu Li turned and walked outside: "Chu Family, follow me."

The people around all cleared the way, though their gazes at Chu Li were filled with mockery.

Han Ya let out a long sigh, realizing that the Chu Family this time had really lost both the lady and the troops. But when his gaze fell on Tang Ming, he felt a headache.

This time, the three giants of Tianpo City were essentially backing Chu Li. After all, Chu Li’s strength was too formidable. Chu Li’s connections with the internal powers of Tianpo City were too deep.

"Hall Master Tang, regarding this incident."

Han Ya approached Tang Ming.

Tang Ming snorted coldly: "Tower Master Han Ya, there’s no need for more words. I, Tang Ming, am the Hall Master of the Medical Hall in Tianpo City, yet my residence was searched without cause, leaving me no face to face the people of Tianpo City anymore. I will immediately write a resignation to the Medical Hall’s headquarters. I believe the Director of the Medical Hall will provide me an explanation."

Han Ya awkwardly watched as Tang Ming walked into the room, while Mu Ta, standing beside Han Ya, sighed: "This time, it seems not only the Chu Family lost both lady and army. Why do I feel like our Tianpo City did too?"
