Chapter 540: Ning Cheng's Plan
Inside the Cao family hall.
As soon as Ning Cheng sat down, he asked, "Grandpa Cao, can you talk now?"
"This..." Cao Wudi hesitated for a moment. He was considering whether to speak. After all, before Cao Shuang left, he specifically asked Cao Wudi not to tell Ning Cheng.
"Let me tell you!" Cao Lengfeng, who was sitting aside, clenched his fist slightly and said, "Ning Cheng, you should know that Cao Shuang was summoned back by someone from the main line, right?"
Ning Cheng nodded, Cao Shuang had mentioned this matter to him.
Cao Lengfeng continued, "Although Shuang'er refused, the matter did not end that simply. After all, we are just a branch. The main line finally gave us such a good opportunity, but we actually refused. This is undoubtedly a fight.
Their faces..."
"Is it possible that they are still planning to force me?" Ning Cheng asked.
Cao Lengfeng sighed and said, "As long as that boy Cao Yan is here, the force will be the lightest. If Cao Shuang insists on refusing, I don't know what means Cao Yan will use to deal with Shuang'er."
Ning Cheng frowned and remained slightly silent.
He remembered the letter left by Cao Shuang...
No wonder she finally wrote something like, help her take care of the Cao family, and I owe you a favor.
Cao Wudi said, "Shuang'er's personality has been like this since she was a child. She didn't want to cause us any more trouble, so she chose to leave alone and run around the country in the elixir market. Alas... I didn't expect that Cao Yan was here anyway. Today
If Ning Cheng hadn't arrived quickly, he would probably have made even more unreasonable demands."
Ning Cheng asked, "Grandpa Cao, why didn't you tell me about this?"
Cao Wudi and Cao Lengfeng looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
This is naturally what Cao Shuang requested.
Cao Shuang has changed a lot since meeting Ning Cheng, and the smile on her face has also become much brighter.
But her temperament has not changed. She doesn't want to cause too much trouble to Ning Cheng. After all, the Cao family owes Ning Cheng too many favors...
So this time Cao Shuang chose to leave alone. At worst, she would keep running around outside. She didn't believe that people from the main line of the Cao family would come to her door.
Cao Shuang still underestimated the shamelessness of the main lineage of the Cao family.
Nowadays, the branch is so popular in the elixir market in the imperial capital, and they immediately came after hearing the news...
Ning Cheng now regrets letting Cao Yan go just now. For such a disgusting guy, he shouldn't be let go so easily!
Cao Wudi sighed and said, "Shuang'er told us before leaving, never to trouble you again. If anything happens then, the last way is for her to go to the main line..."
"boom."
A burst of murderous intent suddenly burst out from Ning Cheng's eyes, and the atmosphere in the hall became a bit colder.
Cao Wudi and others couldn't help shaking their bodies.
This terrifying murderous aura was naturally emanating from Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng didn't know why he was so angry. Cao Shuang's stubborn appearance appeared in his mind.
This is a girl who is not good at expressing herself. She seems to be quiet in front of him every time.
"Don't you want to owe me a favor?" Ning Cheng said to himself.
"Grandpa Cao, I understand. Leave this matter to me. Don't tell Cao Shuang. I don't want her to feel burdened."
Cao Wudi couldn't help but ask, "Ning Cheng, what are you going to do?"
Ning Cheng sneered and said, "I have already provoked three families of the Guwu main line, I don't mind dealing with the Cao family!"
"Provoking three families?" Cao Wudi said immediately, "Ning Cheng, you must not do this! The background of the main line of the Cao family is beyond your imagination. Even though your strength is no longer what it used to be, you are still the same against the main line of the Cao family.
No chance of winning!"
Ning Cheng smiled and said, "Grandpa Cao, I want you to promise me something."
Cao Wudi said, "What's the matter?"
Ning Cheng said, "I hope you don't care about this matter about the main line, and just bear with it for a while. Once I'm fully prepared, everything will be over."
Cao Wudi immediately stood up and said, "Ning Cheng, what do you want to do? What do you mean everything is over?"
Cao Wudi could tell that Ning Cheng's words were definitely not rhetoric, he definitely wanted to do something!
Ning Cheng said, "There will definitely be a battle between me and the main families of the Guwu family, and it will definitely be a fight to the death. If I don't die, those people in the main line will be the unlucky ones."
"What!"
Cao Wudi stood up and said, "Are you planning to start a war against the main line?"
"No, absolutely not!" Cao Wudi said immediately, "Ning Cheng, please don't get excited. The worst we can do is break up with the main line of the Cao family, and then we will find other ways to make a living!"
Ning Cheng shook his head and said, "Grandpa Cao, the old grudges between me and them cannot be resolved easily. Even if I don't kill them, they will come to kill me one day. It's better to take the initiative!"
Ning Cheng did not expect that his ideas coincided with those of the senior officials of the Guwu Main Line. As early as some time ago, the people of the Guwu Main Line had already begun preparations, with the purpose of killing Ning Cheng!
"Hey, how could this happen?" Cao Wudi slumped on the chair, looking much older for a while.
The energy of the ancient martial arts main line is like a behemoth to the current Cao family, and they have no way to give Ning Cheng any help.
Seemingly sensing Cao Wudi's thoughts, Ning Cheng said, "Grandpa Cao, you must not tell Cao Shuang about this matter, and don't bother with it. I'm afraid those guys from the Cao family will turn their anger on you!
"
"Ning Cheng, what do you mean, are we the kind of people who are treacherous?" Cao Lengfeng finally stood up and said, "Xiao Shuang is stupid, and you can't be stupid with her! No matter what the outcome is,
We, the Cao family branch, will definitely stand by your side!"
Seeing his son say something like this, Cao Wudi nodded appreciatively and said, "That's right, the worst case scenario is that the fish will die and the net will fall apart! I can't possibly watch something happen to you!"
Looking at the stubborn father and son in front of him, Ning Cheng shook his head helplessly and said, "Why are you doing this? This is my own business. Once you are implicated..."
Cao Wudi said, "You saved my life! Ning Cheng, my Cao family owes you countless favors. There is no way we can just stand by and watch!"
"Hey." Ning Cheng sighed and said, "I finally know where Cao Shuang's stubborn character comes from. He just inherited it from you two."
Cao Wudi smiled and said, "What? Are you attracted to my Shuang'er?"
Ning Cheng was slightly embarrassed and said, "Mr. Cao, it's already this time and you're still joking!"
"I'm not joking." Cao Wudi became more serious and said, "Ning Cheng, if my Cao family is really destroyed by then, I hope you can save Shuang'er. Although I know you have no obligation, but... Shuang'er
She is really a good girl..."
