Protect Our Clan Leader-Chapter 732 95 Zuo Qiu Admits Defeat! Shou Zhe Wins Big_4
A person like Wang Shouzhe, if a friend, would indeed be a joyous thing. But if he is an enemy, then it can truly be...
Xiaoyue rubbed her temple a little, her head was aching slightly.
Well, now matter how much thought was put into it, it would be no avail at this point. She had better think about damage control.
Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty and Da Qian were separated by a vast Hurricane Ocean, and news transmission was difficult. Her master temporarily could not know about the situation in Da Qian. The master would return from the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty one day, and she would have to give an account to her master.
Thinking about this, she quickly returned to her room.
Soon, two messenger birds - one green and one white - flew out of her room window and flapped their wings as they soared up into the sky.
...
Liaoyuan County, the Cao Family's main residence.
Emerging from Cao Bangyan's courtyard, Cao Youqing felt slightly irked.
Unknowingly, it had been almost a year since Bangyan was captured. During this time, the entire Cao family was kept busy dealing with the investigator's investigation, being head over heels without time to care for themselves.
Fortunately, the investigator had been sent away and Bangyan was successfully ransomed. This matter could be considered resolved for the time being.
However, for her, this matter was far from over.
Cao Youqing surveyed her surroundings.
Throughout her journey, there were constantly Cao family members passing by. On the surface, everyone was as respectful to her as before, but she knew in her heart that while no one said anything outright, in secret they were surely blaming her.
Otherwise, why would they need to avoid her gaze when she looked over?
This time, the Cao Family's loss was too tremendous.
Six million Qian Gold, even for a prominent Purple Abode family like the Cao family, was an immense sum. To raise these funds, Cao Bangning had to cut down on the resource supply for the family members and even sold several ships. How could the family not resent her?
Moreover, the few Elders who were sacrificed as scapegoats this time were mostly the elders in the family. Most of them were over three hundred years old, with many children and grandchildren. They had long been considered as Old Ancestors within their lines.
Even though it was for the sake of the family and that they had no choice but to sacrifice themselves, and despite Bangning promising to compensate them, how could they not have any grievances?
All these were weighing on Cao Youqing as a form of incomprehensible pressure.
The more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt. The more the family members tried to avoid her, the worse her mood became.
Her mood only slightly improved when she arrived at the Old Ancestor's Kun Wu Residence.
The Old Ancestor of the Cao family was named "Cao Kunhao", who was approaching six hundred years old. In recent years, as his lifespan limit was nearing, his vigor had diminished significantly. He rarely came out for activities and spent most of his time in seclusion in the Kun Wu Residence.
However, even when the Old Ancestor was in seclusion, Cao Youqing could come to Kun Wu Residence whenever she wished.
As usual, she pushed the door and walked in. The moment Cao Youqing looked up, she saw the Old Ancestor, Kun Hao, sunbathing in the courtyard.
Compared to several decades ago, he was now showing signs of aging. His hair was snowy white and his face was filled with wrinkles, making him look like a seventy-or eighty-year-old person in the human world.
"Old Ancestor."
Seeing this familiar figure, somehow, a sense of grievance welled up inside Cao Youqing's heart.
Her figure blurred and she appeared in front of the Old Ancestor's lounge chair, knelt down on the grass, and acted like a spoiled child hugging his arm. She murmured with a sense of wrong: "Old Ancestor, I can't accept it, I really can't accept it~~"
"Ah~"
Old Ancestor Kun Hao sighed and slowly opened his slightly blurred eyes.
Although he had not stepped forward, as the only Purple Abode Old Ancestor of the Cao Family, how could he not know what had happened at home during this period?
He reached out and pat Cao Youqing's head, speaking with an indulgent tone: "You child, a loss is a loss. With your current strength, as long as you cultivate diligently, you can achieve Purple Abode in less than a hundred years. The future still holds infinite possibilities. Our Cao Family can no longer withstand such chaos."
"Old Ancestor, you've always spoiled me the most since I was young. You know my personality. If I can't get past this hurdle, I'm afraid I will be plagued by inner demons, making it difficult for me to pass the judgment of the Heavenly Dao in the future." A trace of resentment flashed in Cao Youqing's eyes, "All in all, I underestimated Wang Shouzhe.
If this man is not eliminated, he will become a disaster in the future. Once he achieves Purple Abode, my Cao Family will surely suffer."

"Ah~ Child... Alright, alright, you are somewhat correct. If this man is not eliminated, he is indeed a great hidden danger." Old Ancestor Kun Hao thought of the young family head of the Wang family, his face unconsciously became serious, "But, we must act cautiously in this matter. Unless we have absolute certainty, we must not stir up the grass and startle the serpent."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"Old Ancestor, this time I definitely will not fail."
Whenever she thought of Wang Shouzhe, Cao Youqing couldn't help grinding her teeth, her beautiful face filled with resentment and hatred.
Even though that Luo Yuqing girl kept snitching on her to the master and was extremely annoying, compared with Wang Shouzhe, she couldn't count as anything.
This time, she might have to personally find that stinky girl Luo Yuqing and ask her to help keep an eye on Wang Shouzhe.
She refused to believe that Wang Shouzhe wouldn't have a moment of vulnerability!
