My Co-renting Lady Boss

Chapter 2035: Chapter 2031: Meeting with Wu Xiaoyu

"I actually know she’s currently imprisoned in a suburban research facility, turned into a research subject for the Dragon Group’s scientists, reportedly..."

Su Xiaoxi glanced at Tang Ming, hesitated to speak: "Hey. She’s living a fate worse than death every day; I don’t know the specifics, these are just the things I know."

Tang Ming’s expression turned cold as he looked at Su Xiaoxi in confusion: "You’ve been restricted by the Su Family, can’t even use the phone, how do you know so much?"

"On one hand, family members tell me some things. On the other hand, Wu Xiaoyu came to find me."

Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming with a complex expression: "The Dragon Group has deployed a large number of experts to the research facility, all of them Martial Generals, Wu Xiaoyu also among them."

"She came to find you?"

Tang Ming was slightly stunned, thinking of Wu Xiaoyu’s boyfriend, "What did she come to find you for?"

"She was very worried about your situation, so she came to inquire about you, and incidentally told me about Liu Mengting’s current situation."

Su Xiaoxi sighed: "She actually cares about you a lot."

"Ha! I was plotted against by her boyfriend like this, and she cares about me?"

Tang Ming sneered disdainfully.

"What boyfriend?"

Su Xiaoxi looked at Tang Ming, confused.

"That Mo Wenming, but he should be dead by now."

Tang Ming laughed coldly.

"You misunderstood! Wu Xiaoyu doesn’t have a boyfriend; she told me that Mo Wenming is just her suitor, but she didn’t accept him. Moreover, Mo Wenming isn’t dead; he’s recovering from injuries at the research facility."

Su Xiaoxi hurriedly explained.

"This..."

Tang Ming was shocked and suspicious; upon recalling, he realized that Mo Wenming’s hostility towards him must be because he knew Wu Xiaoyu cared about him, thus considering him a rival.

"Can you contact Wu Xiaoyu?"

Tang Ming turned his eyes hopefully to Su Xiaoxi.

"She left me a number, but I never had the chance to contact her and saw no need to."

Su Xiaoxi quickly found a note from the bedside table: "You can try to contact her; she surely knows more about the research facility’s situation than I do."

"This’ll do."

Tang Ming noted down the number, his eyes gleaming: "You take a good rest; I’ll go scout around the research facility right now."

"Tang Ming, don’t act impulsively."

Su Xiaoxi anxiously grabbed Tang Ming’s arm: "The Ming Group is really focused on the security defenses of the research facility; reportedly, dozens of Martial Generals are stationed there, and the facility has undergone high-tech transformation, no one can cause trouble."

"Don’t worry, I won’t act recklessly without absolute certainty."

Tang Ming nodded firmly, then quickly kissed Su Xiaoxi’s forehead before jumping out of the window.

Even though the Su Family is heavily guarded now, with his current cultivation, the Su Family members can’t detect him.

In the early hours, Tang Ming stood on a hillside in the suburbs, his brows tightly knit as he observed a military base located at the mountainside.

This is where the research facility is located, though it’s hidden within the military base. The perimeter is guarded by armed military personnel, while the interior is guarded by Dragon Group experts.

"Impenetrable defense, as solid as a rock!"

Having circled around the base a few times, Tang Ming’s eyebrows were furrowed into a knot.

The base appears from the outside to be just a regular military base; after all, experiments involving the undying cannot be publicly disclosed; they need certain cover.

The problem is the military base itself is heavily guarded, and inside there are layers of Dragon Group defenses, making any attempt at a direct assault impossible.

The research facility’s location is inherently easy to defend and difficult to attack, embedded within the mountainside, facing cliffs, with only one mountain road for access, making aerial descent impossible.

Moreover, the external military strength and firepower alone could repel thousands, and with Dragon Group experts inside, neither terrorists nor martial arts masters have a chance of breaching.

"Hey! I can’t contact the sect; it would just increase casualties."

After observing for a long time, Tang Ming sighed helplessly.

Tang Ming initially planned to probe the research facility’s realities; if possible, he would contact the sect and have the masters lead sect experts to launch a strong attack. But seeing the current situation, Tang Ming abandoned this idea; it’s definitely not a problem that can be solved by sheer numbers; it requires smart tactics.

Tang Ming then concealed himself in the mountain forest, looking for a place to rest and plan. To hide himself, he decided not to go to the city anymore; if recognized, it would cause big trouble.

Tang Ming hid in a freshly dug mountain cave, tangled all night but failed to think of a way to rescue Liu Mengting. Helplessly, he could only send Wu Xiaoyu an encrypted message, inviting her to meet.

Early the next morning, donning Dragon Group’s uniform, Wu Xiaoyu drove away from the base, heading downhill towards the city.

Nowadays, Wu Xiaoyu’s temperament and appearance have greatly improved; especially her essence energy has significantly enhanced through continuous cultivation, making her appear steady and outstanding, already possessing the style of a master.

Wu Xiaoyu drove along the highway towards the city without slowing down, while the back window was kept open; when taking a turn, Tang Ming swiftly jumped into the car through the window, unnoticed even by observers.

After entering the car, Tang Ming quickly lay on the back seat, "Long time no see, your cultivation has advanced quite a bit!"

"I’ve only just broken through to a One-star Martial General, but I heard you can slay One-star Martial Generals, there’s no comparison."

Wu Xiaoyu replied without turning her head while driving.

"What I’ve been through is beyond your imagination; it’s better not to mention."

Tang Ming smiled bitterly and eagerly asked: "How is Liu Mengting now?"

"She... is living a fate worse than death."

Wu Xiaoyu opened her mouth, then sighed: "The Dragon Group desperately wants to know the secrets of the undying, so ever since capturing her, they’ve been constantly researching her body."

"How do they research?"

Tang Ming furrowed his brow, anxiously asking.

Wu Xiaoyu fell silent.

"Speak up!"

Tang Ming urged.

"You might have difficulty accepting this; actually, I can’t accept it either. Ever since capturing Liu Mengting, the Dragon Group’s researchers have been repeatedly dismembering and killing her. Besides being reborn only to die again, she hasn’t even had the chance to sleep."

Wu Xiaoyu responded with trepidation.

"I..."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ming’s face turned awfully grim, his mind filled with scenes of Liu Mengting being tortured.

Had it not been for him, Liu Mengting wouldn’t have exposed her identity as one of the undying, nor fallen into the Dragon Group’s hands to suffer this torment.

"I must save her, at all costs, I have to rescue Liu Mengting."

Tang Ming vowed through gritted teeth.
