Chapter 832: Chapter 0832: Star-falling Iron

Originally, Tang Ming pretended to sacrifice her, letting that group of people smash her with cakes. For a while, Tang Ming didn’t even consider such a plan, and fortunately, Tang Ming stepped in and saved her at the last moment; otherwise, that crap would have splattered on her face, and how could she live after that?

"But seriously, those people are really disgusting. If they hadn’t used real poop, I wouldn’t have gotten so dirty. Just thinking about it makes me nauseous."

Tang Ming shivered, looking as if he was stepping on the edge of life and death.

"Haha, yes, just thinking about that idiot with an octopus head eating poop with his hands makes me both disgusted and amused. How could there be such morons in the world? It’s so funny." Su Xiaoxi recalled the scene and couldn’t help but feel delighted; it seemed more satisfying than just hitting someone.

"He brought it upon himself, I..."

Tang Ming wanted to say something, but his phone rang.

"Huh?"

Tang Ming glanced at the caller ID curiously and answered the call, "Uncle Liu, why are you calling me at this time? Is something happening in Songlan City?"

"No, no, nothing’s wrong in Songlan City. Everything is very calm."

The call was from Liu Gaoze.

"Then why are you calling me?" Tang Ming sat up straight, feeling trouble brewing.

Now Liu Gaoze is quite a busy person, his position in the Dark Group is very stable under his leadership, and it seems he got promoted again. Without any important matters, he typically doesn’t have time to deal with him.

"I really have something to bother you with."

Liu Gaoze smiled awkwardly and said, "Our research hit a bottleneck. We need something, which will appear at the Martial Arts Conference. I would like you to help me purchase it."

"What is it? Who’s paying?"

Tang Ming immediately asked cautiously.

"Rest assured, of course, the Dark Group will pay."

Hearing Tang Ming’s concern about money, Liu Gaoze was speechless. Now, Tang Ming’s net worth is at least a few billions, and yet he remains so stingy.

"Alright, as long as the Dark Group pays."

Tang Ming breathed a sigh of relief and then grew puzzled, "Since it’s something the Dark Group needs, why don’t they buy it themselves? And how did you know I’m at the Martial Arts Conference?"

"Meng Ting told me you went to the Martial Arts Conference with the Su family girl."

Liu Gaoze responded with a sigh, "I heard that the item will appear at the Martial Arts Conference, so I immediately requested higher-ups to send someone to purchase it. But for some reason, nobody from above wants to attend the Martial Arts Conference, seeming to avoid it altogether, only telling me to handle it myself, and they’ll pay."

"Haha."

Tang Ming laughed. Liu Gaoze didn’t know why the Dark Group didn’t want to come to the Martial Arts Conference, but he had some clues.

The forces behind the Martial Arts Conference are the Ming Group. Currently, the Ming Group and the Dark Group are at odds, so naturally, the Dark Group doesn’t want to attend the Ming Group’s auction.

"What is it that you need? I’ll definitely help you get it."

Tang Ming yawned and directly asked.

"Star-falling Iron, supposedly a meteorite from outer space."

Liu Gaoze got straight to the point.

"Something from outer space?"

Tang Ming was slightly surprised, having not expected such an item.

"Yes, the product name should be Star-falling Iron, you must get this item for me."

Liu Gaoze pleaded.

"Alright, even if it’s not called this, as long as it’s something from outer space, I’ll ask you about it."

Tang Ming nodded and then hung up the phone.

"Whose call was it?"

Su Xiaoxi walked out of the bathroom, looking at Tang Ming curiously.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxi had changed into a black combat outfit, her hair tied into a ponytail, giving a valiant and spirited impression.

"Uncle Liu asked me to help him buy something."

Tang Ming mentioned casually, then gave Su Xiaoxi a once-over, "Whoa, why did you change your style?"

"Hmph, the previous gown was inconvenient for action, otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten soaked in milk by that seductive woman."

Su Xiaoxi stretched her muscles and said viciously, "This time, I changed into combat gear. If she dares to provoke me again, I’ll slap her to death."

"Haha, do you have the guts?"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes and stood up, satisfied, "This outfit looks good and matches my jeans perfectly."

"Of course, after all, we’re a couple!"

Su Xiaoxi laughed proudly.

"Fake couple."

Tang Ming declared earnestly.

"Oh well, a couple is a couple. Let’s go, the auction is about to start."

Su Xiaoxi didn’t mind Tang Ming’s attitude, and she took Tang Ming’s arm, walking outside together, "The auction is about to start."

"How long will the auction last?"

Tang Ming asked curiously.

"Just the morning, but it will be divided into two sessions."

Su Xiaoxi explained while accompanying Tang Ming to the venue.

The auction was held in the banquet hall of Sun Moon Villa. After modifications and renovations, the banquet hall turned into a venue packed with chairs. At the entrance, attendants checked guests’ invitations, which were issued by the Martial Arts Conference, combining the ticket to going up the mountain and the entry qualification for the auction.

When Su Xiaoxi took Tang Ming’s arm and reached the venue entrance, Su Xiaoxi couldn’t help but laugh.

"Why are you giggling?"

Tang Ming looked at Su Xiaoxi quizzically.

"I suddenly remembered the auction in Wanjing City. At that time, I was pestered endlessly by Sun Zhuangjia, and then you appeared. It seems that Sun Zhuangjia suffered quite a lot because of you."

Su Xiaoxi laughed.

"Haha, that guy was somewhat skilled."

Tang Ming smiled faintly. In his career, he had been duped by Sun Zhuangjia using money-minded women a little. However, it seemed Sun Zhuangjia always ended up miserably tricked by him, and now he didn’t know where Sun Zhuangjia had gone.

"Skilled, my foot, he always got taught lessons by you so badly."

Su Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at Tang Ming, tightened her grip on his arm, and sighed, "Who would’ve thought we’d be attending this auction as a couple, and I finally got rid of Sun Zhuangjia."

"Don’t talk about people during the day nor talk about ghosts at night. Be careful, your Brother Zhuangjia might jump out."

Tang Ming teased.

"Xiaoxi..." Just as Tang Ming finished speaking, someone excitedly called out behind them.

"You’re kidding, right?"

Su Xiaoxi and Tang Ming were startled. It couldn’t be that coincidental, mentioning Cao Cao and Cao Cao appeared.

Turning around, they saw the dashing Sun Wuchang walking towards them, accompanied by a stunning beauty.

Seeing that it wasn’t Sun Zhuangjia, Su Xiaoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Uncle Sun, you’re here for the Martial Arts Conference too?"
