My Co-renting Lady Boss

Chapter 2172: Chapter 2168: Hall Master Tang Ming

In the midst of the chaos, those wanting to fish in troubled waters—is there someone behind it? All three of them have some targets in mind, but they have no clue where to start.

At this time, Tang Ming and Guo Muye came to visit, which made all three very surprised. So Mu Ta decided to attend to Tang Ming and Guo Muye first.

"You two, don’t speak yet, just follow me. The Tower Master and Commander Tian are both here. Let’s go and talk."

Mu Ta knew this matter was directed at the three of them, although they belonged to three different factions. However, they shared a common enemy in this matter.

Rather than keeping it to himself, it would be better to inform the other two.

This way, the three of them could unite to better identify the opponent.

Tang Ming and Guo Muye exchanged a glance, both nodded, and followed Mu Ta to the other small parlor.

In the small parlor, Han Ya was drinking tea, while Tian Huansheng was pacing incessantly. Seeing Mu Ta bring Tang Ming and Guo Muye in, Tian Huansheng approached Mu Ta; "City Lord, how’s it going? Did Hall Master Tang bring any news related to that incident?"

"Let him speak for himself."

Mu Ta nodded towards Han Ya and sat on another chair in the parlor.

Han Ya set down his teacup and his gaze fell on Tang Ming. He knew Tang Ming was Mu Ta’s person, and Mu Ta allowing Tang Ming to come here was a gesture of respect towards him and Commander Tian Huansheng.

Given that Mu Ta showed respect, and since Tang Ming was personally left behind by Lan Yancha, he naturally needed to show some respect to Tang Ming: "Hall Master Tang, speak up. If what you have to say is indeed significant, the Tianpo Tower will surely reward you."

Tang Ming nodded, then recounted the meeting with Zeng Qing that night together with Guo Muye.

Han Ya’s eyes narrowed, while Mu Ta, sitting beside him, slammed the table and stood up: "What a disgrace! As the Deputy Hall Master of the Medical Hall, residing in the Hall Master’s rest chamber, and engaging in such scandalous behavior with another Deputy Hall Master’s concubine."

"City Lord, that’s not the important part. The critical aspect is, he possesses an antidote for that kind of poison. Moreover, he’s an alchemist."

Han Ya gave a cold sneer.

"Tower Master, City Lord, I think we should act without delay. Should I send troops to capture Zeng Qing and Luo Meiniang? After all, that person is still sitting in the inn, and we need to give him an explanation."

Tian Huansheng looked up, Han Ya and Mu Ta exchanged a glance, and both nodded.

As Tang Ming left the City Lord Mansion, Tian Huansheng had already arranged for the capture of Zeng Qing and Luo Meiniang.

"Hall Master, Zeng Qing is no longer in the Medical Hall, and you’ll have to worry about the Deputy Hall Master’s position. I think Alchemist Zhao Jian is quite good. He, apart from Zeng Qing, is the most skilled in refining elixirs, although he can only refine Fertility Spirit Pills."

Guo Muye whispered while walking beside Tang Ming.

Tang Ming stopped, turned around, and looked at Guo Muye: "Elder Guo is not interested in becoming the Deputy Hall Master of the Medical Hall?"

Guo Muye grinned: "Hall Master, you overestimate this old man. Although I do have some skills, compared to Alchemist Zhao Jian, I’m still far behind."

Tang Ming nodded. He understood that if Guo Muye also became the Deputy Hall Master, the Medical Hall would truly become his domain.

Tower Master Han Ya and Commander of Army Tian Huansheng would not allow such a thing to happen.

Tang Ming took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and walked into the conference room.

The Medical Hall’s conference room was not large since only five people could participate in this meeting. Previously, without the Hall Master, there were four people seated here.

This time, with Tang Ming present, there were still only four people, because Zeng Qing had vanished.

Yesterday evening, Tian Huansheng captured Luo Meiniang, but Zeng Qing was nowhere to be found.

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on the Deputy Hall Master named Shan Ze. This fellow was tall and stout, with gold hoops hanging from his ears, obviously a rough man.

Currently, Shan Ze didn’t look happy. The relationship between his concubine and Zeng Qing had gone on for years, and he hadn’t known a thing about it.

If it weren’t for Tower Master Han Ya stepping in, Shan Ze would have thought Tian Huansheng was deliberately causing him trouble. He had long-standing enmity with Tian Huansheng. This time, Tian Huansheng’s cold sarcasm got under his skin, making him feel quite depressed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is our new Hall Master of the Medical Hall, Hall Master Tang Ming."

Guo Muye cast a glance around the room at the three people, then introduced Tang Ming to them.

Tang Ming also began to assess the other two people. One of them was Alchemist Zhao Jian. This person looked like a very stern individual.

He wore an Immortal Doctor’s Robe favored by Elixir Cultivators and Immortal Doctors. The silver-white robe was embroidered with stars on the sleeves, and the scent of herbs could be smelt from afar.

The person seated opposite Zhao Jian was a thin old man. Guo Muye had introduced him to Tang Ming. He was called Liang Feng, an elder of the Medical Hall, promoted by the previous Hall Master. He was quite capable in Immortal Medicine, especially skilled in detoxification and healing.

However, due to his good relationship with the previous Hall Master, after the former Hall Master’s incident, he became more low-profile. Except when he was needed for tasks, he seldom managed affairs.

"Hahaha, yesterday, the City Lord mentioned you, Hall Master. I did not expect you to be so young. Now, with only us two Tower Masters left in the Medical Hall, I am not knowledgeable in Immortal Medical Techniques, so the heavy responsibility falls on your shoulders, Hall Master Tang Ming."

Shan Ze laughed and stood up.

Though Shan Ze secretly had a good relationship with Tower Master Han Ya, Han Ya had reminded Shan Ze to maintain a good relationship with Tang Ming.

After all, given yesterday’s incident, Tang Ming had essentially done the three giants of Tianpo City a favor. If they caused trouble for Tang Ming at the Medical Hall, it would be unreasonable.

Tang Ming smiled towards Shan Ze: "Deputy Hall Master, you jest, I’m merely a young man. The Medical Hall needs all of us working together."

Tang Ming exchanged pleasantries with the people in the room, then took a seat in the Hall Master’s chair.

Liang Feng shifted in his seat and coughed: "Hall Master. Ideally, as the Hall Master, you convening a meeting is nothing unusual, but Deputy Hall Master Zeng has not yet arrived."

Before Liang Feng could finish his words, Shan Ze, sitting next to him, snorted: "Zeng Qing will not come. If you go to the street now, you should see the wanted notice for him. He is now a traitor to Tianpo City."

"What? Zeng Qing betrayed Tianpo City. How could it be?"

Liang Feng shuddered, as not long ago, Zeng Qing had told him he would become the Hall Master of Tianpo City Medical Hall and promised to promote him then.
