My Co-renting Lady Boss

Chapter 2127: Chapter 2123: Huan Die Sect

"I, Tang Ming, conduct myself honorably and openly. How could I possibly stoop to gossiping behind people’s backs."

Tang Ming snorted coldly.

Hu Mei’er placed her hand on the Spirit Tail’s back, "Alright, Spirit Tail. We’ve acquired the soul chest of Tang Ming. Once we deliver him to Central State, he’ll hand over the soul chest to me."

"Clever boy, always with the tricks. Miss, let’s set off now."

The body of the Three-tailed Black Fox Spirit Tail expanded against the wind, enveloping Hu Mei’er and Tang Ming.

Tang Ming sat on the Spirit Tail’s back, gazing at the Wilderness Forest, pondering that anyone capable of making such a swift escape must have ties to the Tang Sect.

This Xie Tang, known as Taoyuan World’s top assassin, might provide some information about his wife and daughter.

However, given his current identity and strength, meeting Taoyuan World’s top assassin wouldn’t be easy.

The Wilderness was larger than Tang Ming had anticipated. Even with the Three-tailed Black Fox Spirit Tail flying at full strength, it still took them three full days to reach a city known as Iron Wall City.

Hu Mei’er explained to Tang Ming that Iron Wall City is a landmark between the Wilderness and Central State; arriving there signifies leaving the Wilderness.

Over three days of continuous conversation with Hu Mei’er, Tang Ming learned that her destination was Iron Wall City. They would part ways there, as Hu Mei’er had very important matters to attend to.

"You mentioned that the Ascension Platform exists only atop the Central State Immortal Mountain, correct?"

Tang Ming handed the soul chest to the transformed human form of the Three-tailed Black Fox Spirit Tail.

The Spirit Tail dressed in a black robe accepted the soul chest, but instead of handing it to Hu Mei’er, placed it into its own Storage Ring.

Hu Mei’er nodded, "Not everyone can enter the Immortal Mountain. Several major sects in Central State have their Dao fields stationed atop the mountain. The Ascension Platform is a very important feature of the mountain. I think you should enhance your cultivation first, and with enough capability, you can try your fortune at the Immortal Mountain. Take this letter; you can use it to visit the Phantom Butterfly Sect fifteen miles outside Iron Wall City. The people there should show me some respect."

"Thank you, Miss Mei’er. May the mountains remain forever and the waters flow endlessly. Even if two mountains cannot meet, two people can. I hope next time I see Miss Mei’er, she can be candid with Tang Ming."

Tang Ming accepted the letter and disappeared into the crowd.

Watching Tang Ming leave, Hu Mei’er sighed deeply and entered an old mansion with the Three-tailed Black Fox Spirit Tail.

A bright golden plaque labeled ’Fox Residence’ hung in front of the mansion.

Tang Ming paid no mind to Hu Mei’er and the Three-tailed Black Fox Spirit Tail, eager to reach the Immortal Mountain in search of his wife and daughter.

But just as Hu Mei’er said, impatience is futile. Without strength and status, even reaching the mountain might not grant a chance to see his wife and daughter.

Thinking of the powerful ancestor’s strength, it seemed his wife and daughter had ascended with her to the Taoyuan World, likely living well.

"What are you doing? Didn’t you know men aren’t allowed into the Phantom Butterfly Sect?"

The gatekeeping girl wearing a lotus robe unsheathed her Treasure Sword. Her gaze at Tang Ming was curious, though she put on a facade of anger.

The Phantom Butterfly Sect is just a middling sect that can’t settle on the Immortal Mountain.

In Central State of Taoyuan World, sects are divided into two types: those stationed on the Immortal Mountain and those unable to do so.

These sects are further categorized into three tiers: upper, middle, and lower.

The Phantom Butterfly Sect’s strength isn’t notable, and it exclusively admits female disciples, bestowing it a very unique status.

There’s a saying within the Iron Wall Fortress’s Qingfeng Dynasty that nearly all Qingfeng Dynasty warriors pride themselves on marrying a disciple from the Phantom Butterfly Sect. Even the current ruler of the Qingfeng Dynasty’s wife was once a disciple of the Phantom Butterfly Sect.

"Someone asked me to deliver a letter to your Sect Leader."

Tang Ming extended his hand, not wanting to squabble with a gatekeeping girl.

Upon receiving the letter, the Phantom Butterfly Sect’s gatekept disciple used her immortal power to inspect it and nodded, "Wait here, I’ll pass the letter to the Elder, who will then deliver it to the Sect Leader."

Tang Ming nodded, his gaze moving to the Phantom Butterfly Sect’s Dao field. He had researched information about the sect before arriving.

This sect was founded a thousand years ago by a remarkable woman at the Nascent Soul Stage. The first rule upon its establishment was to admit only female disciples, barring male disciples from joining.

However, things change. Over a millennium of development, several male tributes joined, although their residence was separate from the female disciples of the sect.

Twenty years ago, a major incident occurred in the Phantom Butterfly Sect. The Great Elder colluded with disciples from evil sects to murder the then Sect Leader, attempting to use sect disciples as pawns to win over Qingfeng Dynasty generals and overthrow the Qingfeng Great Emperor’s rule.

But the Great Elder failed to anticipate that the Sect Leader’s disciple had a powerful friend visiting the sect then.

That woman single-handedly repelled the Great Elder and those evil sect warriors. She opened up a rampage in the sect and bloodily installed her friend as the Sect Leader.

After the sect’s power struggle, many disciples who followed the Great Elder’s rebellion were executed, greatly depleting the sect’s primordial energy.

"Your name is Tang Ming."

The previous gatekeeping disciple returned, followed by a bright-eyed young woman in her twenties.

The girl wore a goose-yellow gown embroidered with butterfly patterns, her calves and arms exposed, decorated with numerous accessories.

"My name never changes by day nor by night. I am Tang Ming. Who might you be, miss?"

Tang Ming nodded to the girl. Unlike Hu Mei’er’s mysterious beauty, this woman’s charm was flamboyant, catching eyes with her every gesture.

"Hehe, ’my name never changes by day nor by night’; how amusing. My name is Mo Chou. Come with me, my master awaits you."

With a smile blossoming on her lovely face, Mo Chou turned toward the inner quarters of the Phantom Butterfly Sect. Tang Ming nodded and followed her.

Mo Chou was the apprentice of the sect master of the Phantom Butterfly Sect and the future successor. Possessing both beauty and medical skills, she attracted many pursuers in the Qingfeng Dynasty.

Even the Crown Prince of the Qingfeng Dynasty delayed choosing a Crown Princess Consort, largely due to her.

Tang Ming pondered how, upon joining the Phantom Butterfly Sect, he might plan to reach the Immortal Ascension Platform on the Immortal Mountain to find news of his wife and daughter.
