Chapter 851: Chapter 0851: Blocked by Ming Group

"That’s true!" Xin Badao and Chu Batian nodded repeatedly. They had just broken through to the Seven Stars. Although their cultivation had improved, it would still take some time to fully integrate their realm and Gang Qi.

"Don’t aim too high. First, consolidate your realm properly. If you perform well in the future, I will naturally help you further improve your cultivation."

Tang Ming smiled and said, "I just happen to need to take Liu Mengting and the others out for a while. You two should stay at the hotel and consolidate your realm properly. Otherwise, it would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow, which would be detrimental to your future cultivation."

"We will heed your instruction, Boss."

Xin Badao and Chu Batian saluted Tang Ming again.

"Alright, go back and cultivate. I need to tidy up my room and get some rest."

Tang Ming waved his hand, starting to send them off, while pondering when he would get a chance to taste the eggshell himself.

Tang Ming didn’t immediately use the eggshell to improve his cultivation because he had just broken through to Seven Stars a few days ago and needed time to consolidate his realm, so he couldn’t break through again.

After washing up, Tang Ming went to bed. Ever since he discovered the benefits of the eggshell, he had been sleeping with the sealed ashtray, a smile lingering on his lips as he fell asleep. A small bat rested on his chest, sleeping soundly.

That night, as Lin Canghai entered Songhai City, a young man in a black suit stood respectfully in a luxurious office in a three-story building near the city center, reporting to a middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth and a receding hairline.

"Minister, according to our intelligence personnel, Lin Canghai from the Dark Group suddenly took Flight 795 to Songhai City and is currently staying at the Fuyuan Grand Hotel."

The young man held a folder and reported seriously.

"What is Lin Canghai doing in Songhai City?"

The balding middle-aged man snorted coldly, saying with disdain, "Just today, Sima Yu reported that Dark Group members caused trouble at the Martial Arts Conference, and now Lin Canghai shows up in Songhai City. What are they up to?"

"Our intelligence personnel haven’t discovered the specific situation yet."

The reporter shook his head solemnly.

"Hmph!"

The balding man snorted coldly and squinted his eyes, saying, "The Dark Group members don’t follow the rules, daring to cause trouble at the Martial Arts Conference we control is a blatant provocation. They’ve humiliated the Sun and Moon Group and Sima Yu. I must make them pay for this."

This middle-aged man was Yang Bupo, the minister of the Ming Group’s West Sea Province Branch and Sima Yu’s mentor.

Upon hearing from Sima Yu that Dark Group members caused trouble at the Martial Arts Conference and got away unscathed, he was already very displeased. Now, hearing that Lin Canghai had arrived, he immediately decided to teach the Dark Group a lesson.

"Minister, do you have any instructions?"

The reporter quickly inquired.

"Immediately monitor Lin Canghai’s every move and inform Sima Yu to return to Songhai City overnight. Tomorrow morning, we’ll confront Lin Canghai and demand that he hand over the culprit who caused trouble and killed people at the Martial Arts Conference."

Yang Bupo squinted his eyes and said coldly, "If Lin Canghai doesn’t cooperate, then let him see the power of the Ming Group."

"Understood."

The reporter saluted sharply and then left the office to execute the orders.

Early the next morning, Tang Ming and his group had breakfast and took a taxi to the airport, preparing to leave Songhai City for the location of Heavenly Cloud Palace.

Seeing the three women and Chen Cang each lugging a huge suitcase, Tang Ming felt a sudden urge to vomit blood.

This wasn’t a trip, yet these guys brought so much stuff. Despite his protests, they were all unanimously overruled.

According to Li Xiaoli, women should carry ample luggage when going out, including various outfits, skincare products, and travel essentials, all of which were indispensable.

With his protests invalid, Tang Ming could only resign himself to fate and obediently help Chen Cang with Liu Mengting’s luggage.

Lin Canghai, having gotten up in the morning, didn’t meet with Tang Ming. Instead, he carried a suitcase containing the Star-falling Iron down to breakfast, planning to check out after eating and head to Songlan City to deliver it to Liu Gaoze.

Sitting in the restaurant, Lin Canghai held the suitcase against the table with one hand and elegantly ate the eggs and toast on his plate with the other. Although confident in his strength, he didn’t dare to take any chances while guarding billions worth of Star-falling Iron.

"Director Lin, you’re in high spirits."

Just as Lin Canghai was halfway through his meal, a mocking voice suddenly sounded, "Director Lin, it’s too discourteous of you to come to Songhai City without informing me to fulfill my duties as a host."

"Hmm?"

Lin Canghai looked up in confusion and saw Yang Bupo and Sima Yu walking over, his expression changing slightly.

After arriving in Songhai City, the last person he wanted to see was Yang Bupo. If it were other members of the Ming Group, he could still negotiate, but Yang Bupo, as the head of the Ming Group’s Songhai City Branch, held a high position and significant influence. Moreover, being a local powerhouse, if he wanted trouble, even Lin Canghai would find it very troublesome.

"What a coincidence to meet Minister Yang here."

Lin Canghai wiped his mouth and looked at Yang Bupo calmly, saying, "I came to Songhai City for some personal matters, so I didn’t inform you, Minister Yang. I didn’t want to trouble you."

"Making such statements is pointless. I don’t believe a Dark Group official like you would handle personal matters in Songhai City."

Yang Bupo smirked and said with a hint of a smile, "I assume Director Lin is on a secret mission?"

"Haha! Even if I were on a mission, I don’t have to report to you, Minister Yang, do I?"

Lin Canghai smiled lightly and asked Yang Bupo.

"That’s true!"

Yang Bupo nodded, and then his tone turned cold, "I don’t care what Director Lin plans to do in Songhai City, but I have an official matter that requires an explanation!"

"We belong to different systems. If it’s an official matter, please contact the Dark Group’s foreign affairs personnel directly."

Lin Canghai frowned slightly and said cautiously, "We don’t have to discuss it directly."

"Haha, normally we would follow that procedure, but yesterday a Dark Group member caused a disturbance at the Martial Arts Conference, killing two Five-star Martial Masters from the Zhao Family of Hedong Province. The perpetrator presented the Dark Group’s credentials, and my apprentice, fearing trouble, let him go. Don’t you think that’s overstepping, Director Lin?"

Yang Bupo sneered coldly at Lin Canghai.

Hearing this, Lin Canghai’s face twitched slightly. He immediately knew that the culprit must be Tang Ming, but Tang Ming had never mentioned this incident to him, leaving him unprepared.
