My Co-renting Lady Boss

"Then our Sect Leader’s poison..."

"Cough, cough, I’m already fine."

Mou Sansheng propped up his body, returned to his original appearance, and his blackened complexion improved.

Tang Ming had just pressed Mou Sansheng’s head with his hand, using cultivation to draw the poison out.

"The Thousand Evil Poison Technique is truly unfathomable. Thank you for sparing my life, I admit defeat."

Mou Sansheng glanced warily at Tang Ming, then turned to walk away: "The Three-Life Sect always keeps its promises. Within Tang Sect Master’s lifetime, we will definitely not appear in Jianghu again. Farewell."

This time, Mou Sansheng was truly afraid. In that instant earlier, he felt as if he had been hit with countless deadly poisons, wishing he were dead.

The members of the Three-Life Sect hurriedly supported Mou Sansheng as they walked out, having thought that the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect only had Yun Potian and Tang Haicang as formidable masters, while the rest were insignificant. They hadn’t expected Tang Ming to be so strong; the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect had indeed become an existence surpassing the Three-Life Sect.

"What a bunch of incompetents."

Just as the members of the Three-Life Sect were leaving the square, a low, scornful voice suddenly rang out: "I told you to capture Tang Ming to draw attention, and instead the noble Sect Leader of the Three-Life Sect was defeated by a mere youngster. How humiliating."

"Who are you?"

Tang Ming scanned around with suspicion, unaware that there was another expert hidden nearby.

Upon hearing this, Yun Potian’s previously kind demeanor instantly changed, and his gaze shot towards a direction like lightning, murderously intense.

"Senior Yun, you..."

The people around felt Yun Potian’s change and retreated hastily, very nervous.

"Brother Yun, it’s been many years, I’ve missed you greatly!"

A figure appeared at the top of the mountain gate.

The newcomer wore a black robe, their appearance unclear, radiating an exceptionally eerie aura.

"Who are you?"

Tang Ming looked puzzled at the newcomer.

"Tang Ming, step aside!"

Yun Potian shouted angrily, moving swiftly in front of Tang Ming.

"Master..."

Tang Ming looked at Yun Potian in surprise, instinctively stepping to the side, unable to fathom why Yun Potian suddenly became so menacing.

"Li Miaokong!"

Yun Potian took a deep breath, staring intently at Li Miaokong.

"Hello Brother Yun."

Li Miaokong greeted briefly, then smoothly landed in front of Yun Potian like a phantom.

"So this is the leader of the Netherworld Road, Li Miaokong, who plotted against Master back then?"

Tang Ming was shocked, understanding why Yun Potian was so agitated. It’s true what they say, enemies meeting are especially hostile!

"You vile creature, you dare appear before me again? I was just waiting to find you for vengeance, and you’ve come right to my doorstep."

Yun Potian unleashed a terrifying aura, glaring at Li Miaokong with gritted teeth.

"Brother Yun, there’s no need to speak like that. Although I plotted against you years ago, I generously allowed you some years with my sister, who was as beautiful as a celestial being. That’s not unfair."

Li Miaokong smiled vaguely, sighing wistfully: "Unfortunately, my sister and I failed to obtain the Huaxia Secret Technique and ended up like rats, barely escaping demise. Such a waste."

"You deserve it. I hear you’ve created an evil force called the Netherworld Road."

Yun Potian chuckled coldly, disdainfully looking at Li Miaokong: "Are you here today intending to stir trouble with your underlings?"

"I’m not that foolish. Without first resolving things with Brother Yun, bringing any number of people would only mean sending them to their deaths."

Li Miaokong shook his head, suddenly looking at Tang Ming: "I’m here today to kill him, to avenge my sister."

"Heh."

Tang Ming chuckled awkwardly, as it was true that Li Miaoyun died by his hand.

"It was I who made him kill that ingrate, if you want revenge, come directly at me."

Yun Potian boldly took the blame upon himself.

"Tang Ming is your disciple. To kill him, naturally, I must go through you first. Hence, I haven’t thought to bypass you."

Li Miaokong shrugged, his tone cooling: "Since we’re face to face, shall we reminisce and settle this grudge?"

"I never realized you had such guts. Are you challenging me?"

Yun Potian laughed eerily.

"I don’t wish to confront you directly either, but the bond with my sister is too deep, and her vengeance must be exacted."

Li Miaokong tightened his robe, announcing his readiness to fight: "Our battle will be earth-shattering; if you desire my life, follow me."

With those words, Li Miaokong turned and walked into the distance.

"Master, watch out for traps."

Seeing this, Tang Ming hurriedly cautioned.

"Just him? Even ten of him, I wouldn’t take seriously, but..."

Yun Potian sneered, yet showed some hesitation.

"Brother Yun, aside from you, there’s Tang Haicang in the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect. Surely you don’t believe just drawing you away would allow me to capture the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect?"

Li Miaokong suddenly turned back, looking playfully at Yun Potian.

"Absurd. No force in the world today can capture the Heavenly Martial Poison Sect. I’ll indulge you for a while."

Yun Potian no longer hesitated, quickly pursuing Li Miaokong, shouting without turning back: "None of you may follow, watch out for enemy ambushes."

Ready to follow the fight, Tang Ming reluctantly halted, feeling uneasy about Yun Potian.

Li Miaokong and Yun Potian departed the sect location at high speed, arriving at the peak nearest to Riyang Peak, standing opposite each other.

"Li Miaokong, what gives you the nerve to challenge me?"

Once settled, Yun Potian asked skeptically: "Remember, I tutored your cultivation."

"I admit that, but it’s been years, and I’m no longer who I was."

Li Miaokong smiled mildly, then his tone turned icy: "A day spent married forms bonds, but hearing you’re alive, I knew you’d seek revenge. How heartless to have Tang Ming kill my sister, that’s hardly magnanimous."

"Ridiculous! Back then, when you and your sister conspired against me, did you think of marital bonds, besides...hmm."

Yun Potian sneered dismissively, intending to say it wasn’t him purposely inciting Tang Ming to seek revenge on Li Miaoyun.

Li Miaoyun’s death was purely accidental due to the conflict between the Netherworld Road and Tang Ming; he merely didn’t intervene to plead for her. Anyway, he found explaining trivial; if Tang Ming killed, it equated to his kill, and that woman deserved it.

"Nonsense! If my sister hadn’t softened and stopped me, do you think as severely injured as you were, you’d have a chance to escape by jumping off a cliff?"

Li Miaokong erupted in rage, cursing through clenched teeth: "I vowed to kill you even without the Huaxia Secret Technique to prevent our schemes from surfacing, precisely how it ended as predicted, all due to my sister’s weak sentiment that saved your life."

Yun Potian fell silent, not expecting Li Miaoyun had intervened for him, yet nothing could alter the betrayal and harm that woman caused him.
