Chapter 1437: Chapter 1437

"So what exactly do you want?"

Seeing that Tang Ming refused to agree to her conditions, Gao Ya’s face turned ugly, and she warned, "You only have the cultivation of a Five-star Martial Master right now. If you don’t cooperate with me, the organization can send high-level martial artists to deal with you, and you definitely won’t be a match for them."

"Oh wow, you think you can just threaten me without any incentive? You really underestimate me, huh?"

Tang Ming laughed and looked at Gao Ya disdainfully. "Since the Flying Wolf Organization is so impressive, why don’t you have them send someone after me and see if I’m scared."

"You... has your cultivation really been crippled?"

Seeing Tang Ming not taking the Flying Wolf Organization seriously at all, Gao Ya became doubtful.

Could this guy be pretending to be weak again to catch a tiger off guard? Otherwise, why isn’t he scared at all?

Tang Ming looked at Gao Ya with amusement.

"Guess your uncle! What will it take for you to give me Liu Gaoze’s experiment content?"

Gao Ya gritted her teeth and shouted.

"Sorry, I’m not part of the Dark Group now, and I don’t have the right to access the military research team. You’ve got the wrong person."

Tang Ming shrugged and said calmly, "No matter what terms you offer, I can’t cooperate with you."

"You’re talking nonsense. You almost helped the Dark Group wipe out the Ming Group. Now I just want Liu Gaoze’s research project. I don’t believe you can’t get it."

Gao Ya looked at Tang Ming suspiciously.

"To be honest, I do have a way to get what you want, but what benefits can you offer me?"

Tang Ming dug at his ear and looked at Gao Ya disdainfully. "Don’t talk about money; that Flying Wolf Organization of yours probably isn’t even as wealthy as I am."

"Damn it, if you don’t want money, then what do you want? Do you actually want me to sleep with you?"

Gao Ya shouted angrily, unable to hold back any longer.

"Oh wow, even if I agreed, I doubt you could handle it, right?"

Tang Ming appraised Gao Ya with a strange look. "Besides, I’ve seen all kinds of women. Just someone like you, being able to even smell my underwear would be like celebrating the New Year for you."

"Bastard, don’t be ungrateful."

Gao Ya slammed the table, clearly infuriated.

Tang Ming sat up straight and looked coldly at Gao Ya. "Don’t forget, I still have more than a dozen people from the Flying Wolf Organization in my hands. If you mess with me, I can give the order right now for those people to vanish."

Gao Ya was at a loss for words and then slumped. "Forget it, let’s discuss the second point later. Let’s first address the first issue. I’ll go back now and discuss the ransom with the higher-ups, and promise to give you a satisfactory answer."

"Now that makes sense. Only with benefits can you negotiate."

Tang Ming smiled faintly, yawning as he said, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to sleep. Since you’re willing to spend money to save them, I can’t be bothered to interrogate them."

"Hmph, just wait and see."

Gao Ya snorted coldly and got up to leave.

"This girl has quite a temper."

Tang Ming smiled and shook his head, then settled the bill and left the café.

Back at the hotel, Gao Ya immediately convened a conference call with the leaders of the Flying Wolf Organization.

"Here’s the situation: I’ve negotiated with Tang Ming to buy back our captured people for fifty million."

Gao Ya reported to a group chat using her cellphone.

Tang Ming only asked for thirty million, but Gao Ya set the price at fifty million, pocketing the difference.

"Fifty million isn’t much. With the Flying Wolf Organization losing so many people, if we can spend money to get them back, we should just do it."

A voice came through from someone with a dog avatar.

"Alright, since you all have no objections, transfer the money to me, and I’ll go rescue the people today."

Gao Ya calmly replied.

"Has Tang Ming’s cultivation really dropped to a Five-star Martial Master?"

Someone raised a doubt.

"Sorry, I’m not sure about his cultivation level right now. Previously, his cultivation was crippled twice, but then he improved dramatically. So I don’t dare make a judgment now."

Gao Ya thought for a moment and reported truthfully.

"Then quickly find a way to test his actual cultivation level. If he’s really just a Five-star Martial Master, we can send someone to eliminate him."

"No way, I disagree with that suggestion. Even if Tang Ming’s cultivation was crippled, he still has many masters under him. For instance, those two experts from the Poison Sect are Eight-star martial artists, and with the Flowing Cloud Sect and the mysterious power behind him, even if he’s a Five-Star Martial Master, he’s not easy to deal with."

"Exactly, we only have a few Eight-star masters guarding us here. If Tang Ming’s cultivation hasn’t been crippled, sending people would be a death sentence. Moreover, even if Tang Ming’s cultivation was crippled, dealing with his subordinates is no easy task."

"So what do we do? This mission has been delayed for too long. If it continues, the higher-ups will intervene personally, and we’ll all be punished."

The Flying Wolf Organization’s executives began arguing directly in the meeting.

Gao Ya sat on the sofa, bored, holding her phone, not bothering to intervene in their argument.

After a while, the executives stopped arguing.

"We’ve decided not to send anyone to deal with Tang Ming for the time being, but you must take necessary actions."

The dog avatar person spoke decisively.

"What do you want me to do?"

Gao Ya frowned and asked uncertainly.

"First, find a way to figure out Tang Ming’s cultivation status. Second, no matter what, get the research data from the military research team."

"Sir, isn’t that a bit too demanding for me?"

Gao Ya protested unhappily, "My strength is limited. Never mind if Tang Ming might be a Nine-star Martial Master, even if his cultivation was crippled and he’s a Five-star Martial Master, I can’t handle that."

"You’re a woman; no need to use force to achieve your goal."

The dog avatar person laughed, suggesting, "Remember how Diao Chan, a mere woman, was able to drive a wedge between invincible Lv Bu and Dong Zhuo? Can’t you employ a beauty trap?"

Gao Ya’s mouth twitched.

"Exactly. You’re the most outstanding beauty in the organization. If you use a beauty trap on Tang Ming, you’ll get that kid wrapped around your finger. This way, not only can you find out his real cultivation but also effortlessly obtain the military research team’s data. This is the safest approach."

"But I don’t like Tang Ming. How can I use my looks against him?"

Gao Ya protested in a dilemma. She didn’t like men, and if Ouyang Xiao learned about this, there’d be hell to pay!

"Enough talk, it’s an order, and you must carry it out. We’re not pushing you to complete the military research team’s task now, but you have to deal with Tang Ming. Don’t tell me you can’t handle a little boy, or you’ll face punishment."
