My Co-renting Lady Boss

"Isn’t it that Tang Ming? He ingratiated himself with the Blue Flame Elder from the Tianpo Mountains, and not only did that Blue Flame Elder humiliate me in every way, but he also left him in Tianpo City to be the Hall Master of the medical hall."

Meng Liang let out a cold snort.

Standing beside Meng Liang, Meng Zhong’s eyes narrowed. He was very familiar with both Tang Ming and Meng Liang. Since Tang Ming could be drawn in by Lan Yancha, it must be that Meng Liang did something to make Tang Ming uncomfortable.

Thinking of his young master’s temperament, Meng Liang let out a long sigh; "Young master, since this has happened, there’s no use being angry. It’s best not to mention the enmity between you and Tang Ming to the family. Just consider as if we didn’t bring Tang Ming out this time."

"No way! I’m afraid to provoke Lan Yancha, but am I even afraid to provoke just one Tang Ming? What is he? Isn’t he just clinging to the thigh of a demon cultivator?"

Meng Liang slapped the table and stood up. The wooden table beside him instantly split into two halves under the blow.

Meng Zhong and Hou Mang exchanged a glance, and Hou Mang coughed: "Senior brother, there’s no need to make things so stiff, right? After all, we have no deep hatred or grudge. If things get too tense, it will be hard to explain to Meng Ru and Ying Chou."

"Don’t mention Meng Ru and Ying Chou to me. If it weren’t for those two, would I even know Tang Ming? If I hadn’t met Tang Ming, would I have suffered such humiliation? That demon cat, he threw me out, right in front of so many people, he threw me out."

Meng Liang roared loudly.

Meng Zhong sighed deeply: "Young master, in your opinion, what should we do about this?"

Meng Zhong’s question caught Meng Liang off guard. He was silent for a moment before taking a deep breath: "I have my ways for this matter; you don’t need to get involved. Meng Zhong, inform the people from the Tian Family, and let’s leave."

Meng Zhong nodded, walked out, and Meng Liang took out a black skull from the Storage Ring.

Seeing the black skull, both Hou Mang and Hou Qiang swallowed their saliva: "Senior brother, when did you get involved with these guys?"

"Our Meng Family, being one of the top families in Hailong City, having contacts with them is only normal. You two have followed me for years; you should know what can and cannot be said, right."

Meng Liang’s voice was slightly hoarse, and his face appeared somewhat distorted.

Hou Mang nodded: "Don’t worry, senior brother, we brothers understand this much."

After the dinner at the City Lord Mansion, Tang Ming was personally escorted to the medical hall by Mu Ta. It was already dark, and only an old Immortal Doctor was left to watch over the medical hall.

He was drunk at the time and laughed when he saw Mu Ta, then rubbed his eyes: "What a damn strange sight. I haven’t even drunk that much. How come I’ve seen the City Lord."

The faces of the guards beside Mu Ta turned ugly. The leading guard stared: "Old Guo, get your wits about you. This is our City Lord, Lord Mu Ta of Tianpo City."

"Lord Mu Ta?"

Guo Muye lifted his head, his gaze landing on Mu Ta.

When Guo Muye lifted his head, Mu Ta was stunned. He never expected to see this old man here.

Back when Mu Ta was just a child, there was an old man named Old Guo in his village.

He wasn’t very talented and practiced low-level Body Cultivation Techniques from a young age. Later, he happened upon a set of Elixir Cultivation Techniques and considered it a treasure, focusing on cultivation. However, his talent was lacking, and after decades, he was still at the Sensing Period.

But Mu Ta knew that Old Guo was a capable person. Despite his low strength, he had advanced skills in Immortal Doctor practices and medicine. When Mu Ta was bitten by a poisonous insect as a child, it was Old Guo who saved his life.

Later, Mu Ta’s parents took him away from the small village, and they settled in Tianpo City. After all these years, he thought Old Guo had long perished.

Unexpectedly, Old Guo was still alive and had become an Immortal Doctor in the Tianpo City medical hall.

"City Lord. Although Old Guo might be weak, he is the most capable person in the entire medical hall. If it weren’t for his unpopular statements, he would have long become the Hall Master."

He Hong, the Imperial Guard Commander of the City Lord Mansion, whispered to Mu Ta.

Mu Ta took a deep breath: "I never expected you to be here, old man. I suppose you still remember me?"

"Hehe, a big City Lord like you must forget things often. This old man is just a drunkard. Why, are you seeing off the new Hall Master? He certainly looks young."

Guo Muye grinned at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming wasn’t foolish. If Guo Muye referred to him with respect, besides that Blue Flame Cat demon Lan Yancha, probably only this person in the entire Tianpo City deserved that.

"Elder Guo, hello. My position as Hall Master is entirely due to the promotion of the City Lord and the Tower Master. In the future, the medical hall will rely on you, old man. I’m just a junior here to learn from you."

Tang Ming went over and held Guo Muye’s hand.

Guo Muye was taken aback. It was the first time someone spoke to him like this.

Mu Ta treated him with respect because of their past and the fact they came from the same village. Mu Ta grew up under his watch.

And although this young man was young, the fact that he could become the Hall Master meant he had his unique strengths.

Guo Muye, always neglected, felt a bit uncomfortable being treated with such respect by Tang Ming. He coughed: "Uh, City Lord, Hall Master, come inside and sit. I’m familiar with this place, let me tell you about it."

Nothing within the medical hall escaped Guo Muye’s notice. Despite being neglected for some comments, leading him to become the Night Watchman, he had a clear grasp of everything within the Tianpo City medical hall inside-out.

"That’s how things stand. Deputy Hall Master Zeng Qing’s medical skills aren’t great, but he makes profits for the medical hall by making Hemostatic Pills, and he’s drawn a large group of Immortal Doctors. I’ve heard he’s been frequenting the Commander Residence lately, likely aligning with Commander Tian Huansheng."

Guo Muye said, his gaze on Mu Ta.

Sure enough, Mu Ta squinted, seemingly calculating something in his mind.

Guo Muye took another drink from his wine gourd: "The other Deputy Hall Master, named Shan Ze, knows nothing about medical skills. He was a former Assistant General under the Commander Residence. I heard Commander Tian was quite displeased with him, which is why he was sent to the medical hall."

"Oh? Shan Ze knows neither medicine skills nor Alchemy. He’s not an Elixir Cultivator. How did Commander Tian manage to place him here? There must be a reason, right?"

Tang Ming raised his eyebrows.
