Chapter 1430: Chapter 1430

"I never expected the scene to be so grand."

Li Long glanced at the men and women in the yard, looking at Tang Ming strangely: "You’re only eighteen, and to have reached this stage, you could say you’ve achieved boundless glory."

Li Xiaoli snorted coldly but said nothing.

Azure Dragon advised Li Xiaoli not to reveal their relationship, lest it brings trouble to her.

"Envoy, stop gloating. Let me say a few final words to my family and friends before leaving with you."

Tang Ming gave Li Long a knowing glance, then turned to everyone.

"Ah, Tang, go without worry. No matter when you return, you will always be my Su Family’s son-in-law."

Su Tianyu looked at Tang Ming sorrowfully, holding Su Xiaoxi’s hand: "I believe you and Xiaoxi spoke clearly last night; she will certainly wait for your return."

"Yes, I’ll wait no matter how long it takes."

Su Xiaoxi, her eyes red, firmly expressed her stance.

"Sigh, so long and uncertain."

Tang Ming sighed: "Uncle Su, take care. While I’m away, please take good care of Xiaoxi."

"Don’t worry, Xiaoxi is my daughter; of course, I’ll take good care of her. You take care of yourself too."

Su Tianyou nodded repeatedly.

"Ah, Tang, the Lin Family has let you down."

Lin Qingfeng looked at Tang Ming with shame: "Lin Xue didn’t know what status to see you off with and was afraid she’d cry, so she didn’t come. But she asked me to convey a message."

Tang Ming was taken aback; it had indeed been a while since he’d seen that fiery police officer.

"Xue’er said that when you return, if she has yet to find a match, she will definitely marry you."

Lin Qingfeng carefully organized his words.

"Why does that sound like I’m a backup?"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes, "Please also tell Lin Xue I’ve canceled the engagement. If she finds someone suitable, she should marry early."

"I’ll, I’ll definitely pass on your words."

Lin Qingfeng nodded gratefully; as a father, he feared Lin Xue would foolishly wait for Tang Ming. Hearing Tang Ming say this relieved him a lot.

Tang Ming glanced at Wu Dao and Long Aiyu, bypassing them directly to approach Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli.

Wu Dao sighed deeply; the Wu Family owed Tang Ming too much, and he understood Tang Ming’s grudge against them.

Wu’s elder was still bedridden, and Wu Dao had wanted to ask Tang Ming to treat him. Yet due to past issues, he didn’t have the face to ask, and given Tang Ming’s current state, even if he did, Tang Ming might not help.

Long Aiyu was truly angered; as the head of the Long Family, he had come to see Tang Ming off, only to be shunned. Had he known, he wouldn’t have come.

"Tang Ming, I’m sorry. I couldn’t persuade him not to take you to the Dragon Group."

Li Xiaoli, crying, apologized.

"Don’t cry. He has his reasons. If because of me, he can’t return, then I’d truly be guilty."

Tang Ming smiled, advising: "When I’m not around, listen to Mengting. No more antics; otherwise, no one can help you if trouble arises."

"Oooh, I understand. I’ll definitely be good."

Li Xiaoli nodded repeatedly.

Tang Ming sighed, looking at Liu Mengting, unsure of what to say.

"Go without worry. I have four years of college left. I believe you’ll be back before I graduate, right?"

Liu Mengting, eyes red, looked at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming nodded bitterly, unsure himself when he could return.

"Regardless, I’m your fiancée. When you return, we’ll get married."

Liu Mengting firmly expressed her thoughts, fearing she’d lose the opportunity if she didn’t.

"Liu Mengting, I’m actually your fiancé." Given the situation, Tang Ming wanted their relationship clarified.

"Yes, you are my fiancé; it’s real."

Liu Mengting nodded firmly: "I’ll surely wait for you to return."

"What I mean is, I’m truly your fiancé."

Tang Ming looked at Liu Mengting helplessly.

"I know; I’m truly your fiancée too."

Liu Mengting still didn’t grasp Tang Ming’s point.

"I, forget it, just take care! When Wei’er returns, tell her not to worry about me."

Tang Ming sighed powerlessly, gravely conveying before turning to Li Long.

"Farewell, everyone."

Li Long bowed to everyone, leading Tang Ming out.

Tang Ming waved painfully.

The crowd was instantly overwhelmed with emotions, and several women were crying uncontrollably.

At that moment, an icy female voice suddenly sounded.

Looking up, everyone saw Wu Xiaoyu, dressed in black leather, appearing expressionless in the yard.

Tang Ming was slightly stunned, not expecting her appearance now.

"Xiaoyu, why are you here? Where have you been all this time?"

Wu Dao rushed to Wu Xiaoyu, inquiring with concern.

Wu Xiaoyu glanced at Wu Dao, disregarding him, directly addressing Li Long: "You’re the Dragon Group’s envoy, right?"

"Yes, anything you need?"

Li Long looked at Wu Xiaoyu in confusion.

"I heard the envoy’s mission is to recruit a genius from the Dark Group faction to the Dragon Group. I’d like to recommend myself."

Wu Xiaoyu took a deep breath, speaking confidently.

Wu Dao’s expression changed dramatically, "Xiaoyu, don’t mess around; you’re not up to the standard."

"It’s not your concern."

Wu Xiaoyu coldly glanced at Wu Dao: "I can make my own decisions; I will replace Tang Ming going to the Dragon Group."

"What are you trying to do?"

Tang Ming looked at Wu Xiaoyu in confusion, wondering if she was sacrificing herself for him.

"Sorry, as Wu Family Head said, your qualifications don’t meet the Dragon Group’s requirements."

Li Long shook his head, explaining: "Your information was assessed during the martial arts tournament; besides Tang Ming, no one from the Dark Group faction met the criteria."

Wu Xiaoyu smiled faintly, her aura erupting, unveiling a solid layer of Gang Qi.

"Nine-star Martial Master?"

Tang Ming and Li Long simultaneously expressed surprise.

Wu Xiaoyu had now surpassed to Nine-star Martial Master; how was this possible?

Others looked shocked, unable to fathom Wu Xiaoyu’s sudden breakthrough, a feat seemingly unscientific.

"Indeed, my cultivation is at the peak of Nine-star, inching towards Martial General, supposedly meeting the envoy’s invitation?"

Wu Xiaoyu looked at Li Long uncertainly.
