The Two Heroes of the Cao Family
With a loud boom, the warship broke through the sky and sped towards the direction of Yuguang Region.
Yuguang Region was a medium-sized region in the Immortal Martial World. Excluding some small settlements, there were twenty-four large cities in the entire region.
The population of these cities was at least tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
The twelve most prosperous cities were under the control of the Cao Family. They were the fiefdoms of the Marquis of Three Generations and Eight Stars.
When the twelve cities were connected together, they occupied almost one-third of the Yufang Region's surface area. Although there were only twelve cities, it was still an extremely large piece of land.
At this moment, in Yuguang Region's Xingyuan City, there was an incomparably huge mansion that took up almost one-third of the entire city.
Within this mansion, there were undulating hills, covered by forests, towering peaks, and flowing rivers.
Many magnificent and magnificent buildings were embellished within, as if it was a holy land of immortals.
In a huge hall, more than ten men and women were sitting in front of a long jade table. They were dressed luxuriously and had extraordinary auras.
There were men and women, old and young, and they were all of different ages. However, they were all people with powerful cultivations. Every move they made was filled with a sense of superiority.
This mansion was the Cao Family's mansion. The people in the hall were the core members of the Cao Family.
This time, the Cao Family received the news that Luo Zheng had left the Yellow Heaven Court.
When they confirmed that Luo Zheng's warship was heading towards Yuguang Region, they gathered all the people in the hall.
The Cao Family gathered all the core members of the Cao Family to discuss this matter.
At this moment, the faces of the Cao Family members were not looking good.
A few hours ago, they had received the news that Luo Zheng had been attacked by martial artists on his way to Yuguang Region.
Moreover, these martial artists were not only powerful, but there were also Profound Heavens experts among them. Moreover, from their tone, it was very likely that they were the experts of the Cao Family.
However, the Cao Family members were very clear that they did not send anyone to stop Luo Zheng, let alone kill him.
"Why did we suddenly lose contact with them? I have contacted many forces that have been tracking Luo Zheng. They all said that after receiving the news that the warriors who had stopped Luo Zheng had broken through the battleship's protective shield and entered the battleship, there was no more news. Moreover, all the spies that had been tracking him seemed to have disappeared. There was no news at all! "
A middle-aged warrior said with a frown.
"Is there something strange about this? Or did the person who attacked Luo Zheng not only kill Luo Zheng, but also kill all the spies in order to silence them?"
"If that's the case, then it will be troublesome. At that time, if others blame this on our Cao Clan, then we won't be able to clear our name!"
"That's right. The information sent back by our spies will definitely mention that these cultivators are related to our Cao Family. If there is no evidence, then there will be no explanation."
Some of the core upper echelons of the Cao Family had ugly expressions on their faces as they expressed their worries.
If Luo Zheng, the new Marquis Shenjian, was killed, the Yellow Heavenly King's face would not look good. At that time, he would definitely take action himself to investigate this matter.
Once this information was found, the Cao Family would become the biggest suspect. Then, there would be big trouble.
Moreover, there were dozens of spies that had been tracking Luo Zheng. Each of these people represented a force behind them.
If these forces all believed that everyone had been killed by the Cao Family, then it would also be a big problem.
"Everyone, I don't think this matter is that serious. It is a good thing that the Immortal King has taken action. Although some people heard that the cultivators who attacked Luo Zheng said that they were from our Cao Family, there is no evidence. Therefore, even if the Immortal King personally investigates this matter, he can't do anything to our Cao Family! "
At this time, an extremely young and tall cultivator said.
"Hmph, if the Immortal King personally takes action, then he can't act arbitrarily. Everything must be based on evidence. This matter was indeed not done by our Cao Family. Naturally, there can't be any evidence! "
Another young cultivator also said, "I think it's just a nouveau riche from a low-level realm. The Immortal King is just using him. It's impossible for him to make a big fuss over this person."
These two young cultivators of the Cao Family were called Cao Jibei and Cao Jinan.
They were both geniuses who had emerged in the Cao Family in recent years. They were invincible among their peers in several regions and were known as the Cao Family's Twin Heroes.
As the two of them spoke, they carried the unique arrogance of geniuses. There was a sense of insufferably arrogance.
In their opinion, Luo Zheng was also a genius who had emerged in recent years. However, whether it was his background or cultivation strength, he was far inferior to them.
It was just that Luo Zheng's luck was better than theirs. That was why he could become the only cultivator to be conferred the title of Marquis in the Yellow Heaven Court for thousands of years.
Moreover, there were all kinds of unfavorable rumors about Luo Zheng that were spreading everywhere. The two of them didn't put Luo Zheng in their eyes at all.
"Jibei and Jibei are right. Marquis Shenjian and Luo Zheng died on the way to Yuguang Region. This is a great shock to those who are clamoring to take back our Cao Family's fief!"
