Chapter 1228: Chapter 1228

"Wei’er, don’t look. When you go to Rainbow Cloud Peak, within the secular world, apart from your parents as your unbreakable bond, no one else will have any connection with you again."

Zi Yuan stood beside Xia Wei’er, advising helplessly.

"No, we will always be friends. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be searching for me everywhere."

Xia Wei’er said firmly.

"Sigh, when are you planning to leave with me?"

Zi Yuan sighed, asking helplessly.

"I want to formally say goodbye to my friends."

Xia Wei’er said, lowering her head.

"I think you really want to say goodbye to that brat instead."

Zi Yuan looked at Xia Wei’er gloomily: "The situation is tense, there are too many eyes watching him, so it’s inconvenient for me to take you to see him. Wait until this storm passes, then say your goodbye to him, and leave with me."

"Wei’er, you must understand master’s well-intentioned plans."

Zi Yuan looked at Xia Wei’er, speaking solemnly: "You have only one year. If your strength becomes powerful enough to protect Tang Ming, I will naturally not meddle in your affairs. But if you don’t have that kind of strength by then, I can’t let you be together, understand?"

"I understand, I will definitely work hard in cultivation and protect his safety in the future."

Xia Wei’er promised firmly.

"As long as you understand."

Zi Yuan nodded, a gleam flashing in her eyes.

She had the capability to eliminate Mo Liuye and Ye Liuxing, but doing so would leave Xia Wei’er unwilling to leave with her. To ensure Xia Wei’er can fully focus on cultivation, she purposely let go of those two and set a one-year agreement.

She believed Xia Wei’er would strive to cultivate for Tang Ming’s sake, but what would happen after a year, no one could predict.

Maybe Tang Ming would already be dead, maybe Xia Wei’er would like someone else, in any case, Zi Yuan made the decision after consideration for Xia Wei’er.

In the afternoon, Tang Ming was cultivating in his room when the phone he used under the Tang Ming identity suddenly rang.

Tang Ming was slightly startled, picked up the phone and glanced at it, surprisingly, it was a call from Li Wenmao.

"Why is this guy calling me suddenly?"

Tang Ming was surprised, then answered the call.

"Hello, who are you?"

Upon connecting, Li Wenmao asked directly.

"You’re calling me and asking who I am? Isn’t that rude?"

Tang Ming replied speechlessly.

"I am Li Wenmao, this phone should belong to Tang Ming, how is it in your hands?"

Li Wenmao asked puzzled.

"Li Wenmao? Aren’t you Li Wenxuan’s brother? I know you."

Tang Ming chuckled, explained: "My brother Tang Ming has been killed, now all his belongings are in my custody."

"Oh, you’re the Group Leader Tang Xin."

Li Wenmao suddenly understood, then tentatively asked: "I heard your cultivation has been abolished, and you provoked a terrifying force that plans to kill you in a year, is this true?"

Hearing this, Tang Ming fell silent for a moment, thought carefully, and understood Li Wenmao was asking on purpose.

Li Wenmao was likely pretending to be clueless, clearly knowing Tang Ming was murdered, and was gathering information on Tang Xin’s situation.

"Since the news is already out there, I won’t hide it, indeed my cultivation was abolished."

Tang Ming sighed, squinted as he spoke: "But Li Wenxuan had a marriage contract with my brother, even if my brother is gone, the Tang family will certainly be responsible for her."

"Responsible my foot, do you expect my sister to marry a dead person?"

Upon confirmation, Li Wenmao’s tone instantly turned vile, coldly said: "Once a person dies, their significance dissipates. Since Tang Ming is dead, the marriage with my sister is called off. The women of the Li family don’t need the Tang family to be responsible, let’s sever ties and owe each other nothing from now on."

With that, Li Wenmao hung up the phone harshly.

"Haha, what a tea-cooling Li Family."

Tang Ming smirked while looking at the phone, but severing the fake marriage contract with Li Wenxuan was also a good thing.

In the mansion hall of the Li family in the provincial capital, Li Wenmao sat with a sullen face looking at Yang Wei on the opposite sofa.

"Li brother, how was it? Didn’t I tell you the truth? That Tang Xin indeed had his cultivation abolished."

Yang Wei smiled, holding a teacup, looking at Li Wenmao.

After Shi Tou was killed, Yang Wei knew even if Tang Xin’s cultivation was abolished, he couldn’t cause any substantial harm.

Since even the Three-star Cross Training Martial Master Shi Tou was killed, if he provoked Tang Xin, it would be a dead end.

However, it didn’t prevent him from causing trouble deliberately, since Tang Ming is dead, the Li family could sever ties with the Tang family.

Li Wenmao snorted coldly, he had long known about Tang Ming’s murder, and immediately deceived Li Wenxuan back to the provincial capital, preventing her from dealing with the aftermath of Tang Ming.

Back then, Li Wenmao planned well, keeping Li Wenxuan and the Li family out of Tang Ming’s death matter.

This way, the Li family could continue maintaining relations with Tang Ming, because although Tang Ming is dead, Tang Xin is alive, and the Tangming Group hasn’t collapsed.

As long as Li Wenxuan remained Tang Ming’s fiancée, with her widow status, the Li family’s cooperation with Tang Xin and the Tangming Group could continue.

But yesterday he suddenly discovered issues within Tangming Group, many shareholders selling shares, major personnel changes, originally thought to be Tang Xin’s means after taking office, but unexpectedly...

Until today when Yang Wei visited, he learned Tang Xin had turned into a ruined person.

In this situation, Tang Ming is dead, Tang Xin ruined, the enemies of the Tang brothers definitely won’t spare the Tangming Group and the ruined Tang Xin, if at this time the Li family doesn’t sever ties with the Tang brothers, it might get implicated.

After such development, the Li family had stabilized its domestic foothold, plus contractual constraints from cooperation projects with the Tangming Group, even without currying favor with Tang Xin, the Li family could maintain its interests.

Li Wenmao was already considering whether to shrink overseas cooperation with the Tangming Group, otherwise, if the Tangming Group were to be overthrown, the Li family, as the Tangming Group’s largest overseas agent, would suffer heavy losses.

"Yang brother, after all, both our families are overseas families, we should support each other, but when the Li family came to develop domestically it couldn’t contact you, that’s why I had to establish cooperation with Tang Ming."

Li Wenman calmed his emotions, smiling looking at Yang Wei: "Now that Tang Ming is dead, Tang Xin’s downfall is inevitable, joint development of Li and Yang families is the way forward."

"Hehe, I thought so too."

Yang Wei put down the teacup, although he internally despised, externally he showed no dissatisfaction with past issues.
