My Co-renting Lady Boss

Chapter 2003: Chapter 1999: Immortals

Although he knew he couldn’t withstand it, Tang Ming still frantically channeled energy from his two dantians to gather defense.

Earlier, using his left hand casually, he could severely injure Yingzi, who was at the peak of One-star and close to a Two-star Martial General. Now, the attack was countless times stronger than before, and Tang Ming had no confidence at all.

"The boy is finally going to die."

Hua Luoying was excited as he watched the energy saber flying through the air, feeling it beautiful and magnificent.

"Yun Potian, even though I can’t kill you, destroying your disciple is at least some payback for the pain of my severed finger."

He gathered energy with his left hand while letting out a long howl toward the sky.

"Damn it!"

Tang Ming cursed with an ugly expression, feeling that he was doomed.

"Daddy!"

Seeing Tang Ming in peril, Xiao Honghong struggled wildly, but despite the terrifying nature of the attack, his strength was limited, and against such an undying monster, he had no solutions.

Just as the energy saber was about to smash into Tang Ming’s energy shield, a giant shadow appeared suddenly—a monstrous being, sinister-faced, two meters tall, with a whole body of silver-white.

After its appearance, the monster crossed its arms and forcibly withstood the powerful attack from the left hand.

"Boom!"

With a loud explosion, the surrounding houses were knocked down one after another by the intense qi wave, and Tang Ming’s defense directly collapsed under the energy impact.

The mere energy wave was enough to break Tang Ming’s defensive shield; if the saber had really slashed down, his fate would have been self-evident.

"What’s going on?"

Tang Ming dropped to the ground, looked suspiciously at the white monster in front of him.

"Is this... Black Demon?"

Hua Luoying stared incredulously, examining the Black Demon and the white monster. Although they differed in color, their forms were very similar.

"No way? Could it be that your brother succeeded again?"

The Left Hand was in a daze too. The monster in front of him was much stronger than Hua Luoying’s Black Demon, capable of effortlessly withstanding a Three-star Martial General’s attack.

Before everyone could react, the white monster turned around, grabbed Tang Ming, quickly rushed towards the Black Demon, used its body to knock the Black Demon away, then grabbed Xiao Honghong with its other hand and ran into the distance, disappearing into the night.

Not until the white monster disappeared, did the Left Hand and Hua Luoying snap back to reality.

"Hua Luoying, what’s going on? Did your brother hide something important from us?"

The Left Hand immediately turned to look at Hua Luoying.

"I, I don’t know!"

Hua Luoying shook his head bewildered, unsure: "The feeling is indeed that of the Black Demon, but seemingly stronger than the Black Demon... Impossible, my brother wouldn’t hide anything from me, unless he’s made some breakthrough lately."

"Damn it, go see Hua Luojie immediately."

The Left Hand cursed angrily, gritted his teeth, and said, "I helped you brothers because I wanted to wait for his experiment to succeed and make me undying, to regenerate my finger. If he dared to hide such an important matter, I won’t let him off."

"Alright, let’s go see my brother now."

Hua Luoying was also unsure what had happened. After retracting the Black Demon, he immediately ran towards the high-rise buildings in the community center.

On the other side, Tang Ming was held in the monster’s hand, rushing through the shadows in a daze, soon blending into a secluded park.

The white monster gently placed Tang Ming and Xiao Honghong on the ground and then stood quietly without moving.

"Daddy, what is this thing? Why did it save us?"

Xiao Honghong uncertainly asked Tang Ming, curiously observing the monster.

"I also want to know what’s going on. I thought I was dead for sure."

Tang Ming gulped, staring at the monster and asked, "Benefactor, can you speak? Did heaven send you to save me?"

"Hehe, Third Brother, do you think I look like heaven?"

A familiar voice suddenly rang out.

"Hmm?"

Tang Ming gave a suspicious hum, turned to the direction from where the voice came, and saw a man and a woman walking out of the darkness.

This was a handsome couple, the man in jeans and a white shirt, looking handsome with a smile; the woman... wasn’t necessarily beautiful but somewhat scruffy, with a shovel on her shoulder.

"Old Five, Sister Baobao?"

Seeing them, Tang Ming exclaimed, not expecting Zhang Chuming and Zhang Baobao to show up here. Could the white monster be related to them?

"Hehe, it’s been a long time. Didn’t expect us to meet here!"

Zhang Chuming grinned and rushed to Tang Ming for a big bear hug.

Zhang Baobao, meanwhile, stood aside with the shovel, waving at the white monster.

The white monster, like an obedient pet, walked to Zhang Baobao’s side, crouched, and allowed her to pet it.

"What... what exactly is going on here?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Tang Ming looked at Zhang Baobao and the white monster in confusion.

"It’s a long story. Back then in the Southwest, when we parted hurriedly, it was because Sister Baobao and I had to go to M Country to investigate some matters."

Zhang Chuming sighed, explaining with emotion, "Didn’t expect that we would meet again in a roundabout way. At first, I heard you went to Saint Yale University as part of an exchange group, thought you were just on a business trip, didn’t expect you’d get involved with the Transcendents."

"Who are the Transcendents?"

Tang Ming was bewildered.

"The so-called Transcendents are what you call the Undying, but in the terms of our God and Ghost Sect, they’re called the Transcendents—beings similar to humans but surpassing humans. They possess an undying body, resurrecting from the largest remnant part of their bodies after being killed.

In other words, even if shattered to pieces, as long as one finger is left, they can revive."

Zhang Chuming smiled, speaking with caution, "The one you fought earlier, Hua Luoying, is a Transcendent."

"Damn, I wondered why I couldn’t kill him, even after dicing him up, he could come back to life—it’s too perverse."

Tang Ming cursed with irritation, "How could there be such creatures in the world? I’ve never heard of them before."

"You haven’t heard of them because you are uninformed. As far as I know, there are several Transcendents in the world. Either they become super beings, or they’re secretly imprisoned by various big forces for human research, exploring the mysteries of the Transcendents’ bodies."

Zhang Chuming smiled, speaking pensively, "Hua Luoying’s safety is due to his genius brother Hua Luojie’s research in relevant fields, or else he should have been captured long ago for experiments."

"Really! Are there more beings like Hua Luoying, who are undying and unperishable?"

Tang Ming looked at Zhang Chuming with disbelief.

"Of course, there are!"

Zhang Chuming turned his head to look at Zhang Baobao: "Sister Baobao is also a Transcendent, but besides the high-level direct lineage of God and Ghost Sect, no one knows this secret."
