Originally, I thought I could dominate the world after breaking through to Martial General, but I didn’t expect to get completely overwhelmed twice. It’s such a rip-off.

"Idiot!"

Seeing that Sun Zhuangjia couldn’t swim and was unable to get back up after being knocked down, Tianye Yingzi sheathed her sword and prepared to leave.

"Yingzi, it’s me, Xiaoxi, over here, over here."

Just then, Su Xiaoxi came speeding over on a speedboat.

"Mistress?"

Tianye Yingzi was slightly surprised.

"Quick, save him. He’s Tang Ming’s senior brother."

Su Xiaoxi urgently pointed at Sun Zhuangjia.

"Yes."

Tianye Yingzi quickly nodded and then extended her katana toward Sun Zhuangjia.

"A sword?"

Sun Zhuangjia splashed around, cautiously eyeing Tianye Yingzi. This woman actually wanted him to grab the sword. If he slipped, his hand would be gone.

"Grab it."

Tianye Yingzi snorted coldly.

"Oh, oh, oh."

Sun Zhuangjia quickly condensed Gang Qi in his hand, then grabbed the back of the sword, and as a result...

Instead of pulling Sun Zhuangjia onto the boat, Tianye Yingzi dragged him through the water toward Su Xiaoxi.

Soon, Su Xiaoxi and Tianye Yingzi reached the shore, where Sun Zhuangjia lay on the shore, exhausted and spitting out water like he was half-dead.

Being dragged all the way made him choke on more water than when he fell in. It’s such a rip-off.

"This is so embarrassing!"

Seeing Sun Zhuangjia in such a state, the old lunatic’s face turned red. This disciple of his is just a liability!

"This is Tang Ming’s friend, Tianye Yingzi..."

Once ashore, Su Xiaoxi quickly introduced everyone.

"I’m the master’s maid. Are you also looking for my master’s whereabouts?"

After introductions, Tianye Yingzi politely asked.

"Maid..."

Hearing this, Su Tianyu and the others were almost scared to death.

This is a Martial General expert, actually Tang Ming’s maid? It’s hard to imagine.

"That kid is more impressive than I thought."

The old lunatic was also astonished. It seems Tang Ming hasn’t even broken through to Martial General, yet he managed to take on a Martial General maid. How did he do it?

"What does ’maid’ mean?"

After calming down, Sun Zhuangjia looked at Tianye Yingzi in confusion.

"You still have the nerve to ask."

The old lunatic kicked Sun Zhuangjia in the face, scolding him angrily, "Both of you are my disciples. Your junior brother even has a Martial General maid, and you only know how to embarrass me."

Seeing the gap between these two disciples, the old lunatic was furious. If he’d known Sun Zhuangjia would be so useless, he wouldn’t have taken him as a disciple.

"Yingzi, how did you find your way here?"

Su Xiaoxi ignored Sun Zhuangjia and looked at Tianye Yingzi with curiosity.

"So there really is a person named Tianye Yingzi."

Liu Mengting looked at Tianye Yingzi with curiosity. When Tang Ming first mentioned he had a female companion named Tianye Yingzi, they had sent him to a psychiatric hospital. They couldn’t believe she was real.

"Yeah! We found this place based on the lunatic elder’s directions. How did you find it?"

After her initial surprise, Liu Mengting quickly inquired.

"I have a kind of connection with the person. When I heard in the Imperial City that the master was missing, I followed the connection here."

Tianye Yingzi explained truthfully, "But the master isn’t here. What are you doing?"

"You also have a connection with Tang Ming?"

The old lunatic looked at Tianye Yingzi, surprised and curious, "Do you know if Tang Ming is still alive?"

"Of course the master is alive!"

Tianye Yingzi nodded, pointing in one direction, "He’s moving in that direction now. I should be able to catch up with him in two days."

"Really?"

Sun Zhuangjia covered his face, looking skeptically at Tianye Yingzi, "Why does everyone have a connection with Tang Ming? Can anyone connect with me?"

"What kind of connection do you have with Tang Ming?"

The old lunatic questioned again, curious about what’s between Tang Ming and this Tianye Yingzi.

"Sorry, it’s not convenient to disclose."

Tianye Yingzi shook her head, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll go after the master now."

"Wait a minute! Since we’ve met, let’s go together to find Tang Ming."

Su Xiaoxi quickly held Tianye Yingzi back. Now that the old lunatic lost the connection, they could only rely on Tianye Yingzi to find him.

"This... okay, considering my power is limited, and my speed is not fast."

Tianye Yingzi nodded, having been chasing on a small boat with her own cultivation, she was already quite exhausted.

Then the group, ignoring the island’s issues, boarded the ship and set sail once more.

Once aboard, Tianye Yingzi pointed in a direction and began to meditate and rest, having consumed too much energy relying on her cultivation for traveling.

"Tang Ming is truly capable, taking on a Japanese woman as a maid."

Sun Zhuangjia grinned wickedly, looking at Tianye Yingzi at the ship’s bow, "A mistress from Korea, a wife from Japan, these are all good things."

"Sun Zhuangjia, you’re so indecent, I..."

"Smack!"

Before Su Xiaoxi could finish, the old lunatic slapped Sun Zhuangjia on the back of his head.

"Master, why did you hit me again?"

Sun Zhuangjia rubbed his head with a face full of grievance.

"You bastard! This Tianye Yingzi pushed through exhaustion and still can thrash you like a dog. You don’t focus on cultivation, instead, your mind is full of filth. I really want to beat you to death."

The old lunatic cursed angrily.

"Well..."

Sun Zhuangjia shrank his neck, "I’ll go cultivate immediately."

With that, Sun Zhuangjia immediately went to find a place to cultivate.

After the old lunatic left, Liu Mengting looked at Su Xiaoxi, puzzled, "Sister Xiaoxi, what is the relationship between Tianye Yingzi and Tang Ming? Why do you know her, but I don’t?"

"This is really hard to say."

Su Xiaoxi opened her mouth but looked awkward; she indeed knew many things Liu Mengting and others didn’t, like Tianye Yingzi and the former Ruisi.

Thinking of Ruisi, Su Xiaoxi couldn’t help but recall the times she and Ruisi caroused with Tang Ming, her face turning red.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi like this, Liu Mengting felt uncomfortable, realizing she still couldn’t match Su Xiaoxi. Otherwise, why would Tang Ming tell Su Xiaoxi many things but not her?

Su Xiaoxi, on the other hand, found it hard to explain. Liu Mengting didn’t know about these things and naturally didn’t have to be involved, sparing her the feeling of sharing a lover, which seemed like Tang Ming’s way of protecting Liu Mengting.

The two women were secretly envious and jealous of each other.

While they were all worried about Tang Ming’s safety and whereabouts, Tang Ming was lying in a large bathtub, leisurely enjoying a hot bath, "Since the incident, I haven’t had a soak. This is so comfortable!"

At this moment, Tang Ming was in a luxurious suite on a large cruise ship. The opulent bathroom was just the tip of the iceberg; the suite also had a private liquor cabinet, various modern appliances, and luxurious leather sofas, with numerous famous paintings hanging on the walls.
