Chapter 853: Chapter 0853: I Used to Think You Were Quite Smart

"What’s with the ’ah’? If you can’t make a decision, go report it immediately, otherwise you’ll be legally responsible if it causes any major issues."

Feeling the plane start to move, Tang Ming urged hastily.

"Okay, I’ll go ask right now."

The young flight attendant snapped back to her senses and quickly went to contact the captain.

The captain also couldn’t make a decision, so he contacted the control tower and headquarters. Finally...

The plane stopped, and Tang Ming swaggered off the plane. All the passengers and crew stared at Tang Ming in astonishment. Although no one knew what kind of credentials Tang Ming had shown, it was impressive enough that the plane stopped for just one person.

As soon as Tang Ming stepped out of the cabin, Li Xiaoli appeared beside him.

"You..."

Tang Ming looked at Li Xiaoli in confusion, then noticed that Liu Mengting and the others had also followed: "What are you all doing here?"

"We’re traveling with Brother Tang Ming. Now that Brother Tang Ming has disembarked, we naturally have to follow too, of course."

Li Xiaoli said confidently.

"Without you leading the way, we wouldn’t know what to do. And the team shouldn’t be split, so we have no choice but to follow you," Liu Mengting analyzed seriously.

"That makes sense, but your luggage is already checked in. If you all disembark, who’s going to handle the luggage?"

Tang Ming reminded with a speechless expression.

"Brother Tang Ming is so awesome, this kind of small issue will surely be a piece of cake for him."

Li Xiaoli grinned, batting her eyes flirtatiously at Tang Ming, then walked forward with her arms hooked with Liu Mengting and Xia Wei’er.

"Yeah, you’re so awesome, you’ll definitely handle it."

Chen Cang gave Tang Ming an encouraging look.

"Damn, you itching for a beating?"

Tang Ming glared at Chen Cang.

"Oh, you’re so annoying, you’re scolding people again,"

Chen Cang grumbled and quickly chased after the three women.

"Seriously, these ladies are really hard to please,"

Tang Ming muttered, rolling his eyes. He turned around and asked the flight attendant for the contact number of the airline’s higher-ups. Since they had already acknowledged his identity, handling the luggage wouldn’t be a problem.

The group hailed a cab to the hotel where Lin Canghai was staying.

When Tang Ming saw Lin Canghai, he was stunned.

Lin Canghai’s face was bruised and swollen, one of his front teeth was even knocked out. He sat in the hotel lobby languidly tending to his wounds.

"Bro, how did you end up like this?" Tang Ming couldn’t help but laugh, gloating, "It’s not easy to believe that Young Master Lin also has a day of getting beaten up."

"You have the nerve to talk! This is all your fault,"

Lin Canghai glared at Tang Ming and complained, "The trouble you caused at the Martial Arts Conference, you should’ve informed me early. I could’ve brought some backup. Now, the Ming Group ambushed me, and I was caught off guard."

"I didn’t take the Martial Arts Conference matters to heart. Who knew they’d come after you,"

Tang Ming said with a wry smile, looking at Lin Canghai disdainfully, "You’re a high-ranking member of the Dark Group, and you can’t even complete a task like protecting Star-falling Iron. That’s disgraceful."

"I..."

Lin Canghai was speechless. If guarding the Star-falling Iron was considered a task, then this task had indeed failed.

"Alright, tell me who hit you? Where are they now? I’ll get justice for you,"

Tang Ming didn’t blame Lin Canghai because Lin was helping him out and got beaten. Furthermore, the opponents were specifically targeting him, so the responsibility should be his.

"It was Yang Bupo, the head of the Ming Group’s West Sea Province Branch, who hit me."

Lin Canghai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes flickering with cold light.

"Yang Bupo? This guy must be confident in his abilities to have such an audacious name,"

Li Xiaoli couldn’t help exclaiming, then curiously asked, "If he truly can’t be defeated, how is he going to have kids?"

"What?"

Everyone looked at Li Xiaoli bewilderedly.

"Cough, cough, nothing, nothing,"

Li Xiaoli’s face turned red, realizing she might have dirtied the conversation.

Tang Ming looked at Li Xiaoli helplessly and then turned to Lin Canghai, "Since we know who hit you, let’s go find him. I want to see who’s so capable that he dares to beat you up because of me!"

"Are you sure you want to confront them directly? I think you should call your two bodyguards to be safe. Yang Bupo is a Six-star Martial Master. Not sure if Xin Badao and Chu Batian together can handle him,"

Lin Canghai looked at Tang Ming, reminding him.

"Six-star Martial Master? Heh, not bad,"

Tang Ming sneered, "My protectors are currently in retreat for cultivation and can’t take action right now. But to get justice for you, I’m enough!"

"Bro, your cultivation has been crippled. How are you going to take care of this?"

Lin Canghai was speechless looking at Tang Ming. The reason he called Tang Ming was to get Xin Badao and Chu Batian to act. If these two couldn’t act, then with Tang Ming’s crippled cultivation and his own lack of ability, there was no way they could seek justice from Yang Bupo.

"Lin Canghai, Lin Canghai, I used to think you were smart, why do you seem like a fool now?"

Tang Ming looked at Lin Canghai with a strange smile.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Canghai looked at Tang Ming in confusion, not understanding why he was being looked down upon.

"Since the Ming Group came after you because I killed someone at the Martial Arts Conference, had you not thought about how I was able to kill someone at the Martial Arts Conference?"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes and asked speechlessly.

"How you were able to kill someone at the Martial Arts Conference?"

Lin Canghai muttered, then his eyes widened suddenly, "That’s right! All the participants in the Martial Arts Conference are martial artists. How could you kill someone so easily? Has your cultivation been restored?"

After settling the three women, Lin Canghai led Tang Ming to the three-story office building of the Ming Group’s Songhai City branch. He looked at Tang Ming with a lingering resentment, "Tang Xin, you’re so unfair! You didn’t even tell me about your cultivation being restored. Do you even consider me a friend?"

"Are you done? You’ve been nagging the whole way here. Is there an end to this?"

Tang Ming impatiently picked his ear and looked up at the plaque beside the office building door labeled "Ming Group’s West Sea Province Branch", "Look at the Ming Group’s grand setup. Even a branch office’s premises are so grand. And look at the Dark Group... not even having a branch office is truly disgraceful."

"It’s a systemic issue, nothing we can do about it,"

Lin Canghai glanced enviously at the shining plaque.
