If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Guang had already seen through everything and was certain that Cao Zhengming was the culprit, he might even start to doubt himself.
He was right. The Old Man was the new Ouyang Tianxing!
The other elders in the room were secretly terrified.
Cao Zhengming was not lying!
No, the current Chen Guang was even stronger than Ouyang Tianxing in the past. He was also younger, and his abilities would continue to improve in the future.
Other than Chen Guang, the second most powerful person in the martial world, Faction Leader Wen, was also one of his people.
His power and prestige among the sects in the martial world was even stronger than Ouyang Tianxing's, who had climbed up step by step with schemes and tricks!
Ouyang Tianxing had cultivated the Ultimate Divine Skill, and his actions were the style of the evil sects in the martial world. Chen Guang, on the other hand, had appeared out of nowhere. Once he appeared, he displayed absolute dominance, and turned the tide to destroy the evil sects.
His position and reputation in the hearts of the people of Jianghu would have made him the leader of a righteous sect in ancient times. No one would have dared to disobey him.
The talent he displayed on the path of martial arts was also a rare peerless genius that only appeared once in a thousand years.
Cao Zhengming's words reminded everyone that Chen Guang was actually more dangerous than Ouyang Tianxing!
With Chen Guang's current position and ability, if he had any ulterior motives, or if he completely lost control, the consequences he would bring would be even worse than Ouyang Tianxing's!
Compared to the potential danger Chen Guang was in, the assassination attempt the night before was insignificant.
Firstly, Chen Guang wasn't injured. Although it seemed dangerous last night, there weren't any casualties, and only an insignificant assassin died.
Secondly, even if everyone guessed that it was Cao Zhengming who did it, it did not matter whether Cao Zhengming admitted it or not.
Even if it was him, so what?
It could even be understood as him getting rid of a scourge for the people!
He did something to Chen Guang, but it did not mean that he would do it to others.
Jiang Yage was almost implicated, but she had no other choice.
Moreover, there was no evidence to prove Cao Zhengming's suspicions.
Wouldn't it be too unfair to suspect him based on baseless guesses?
Although Xiao Cao's temperament had always been somewhat unlikable, he had never made a mistake of principle.
As Old Cao's son and one of the representatives of the younger generation, he had no reason to collude with Ouyang Tianxing, right?
This thought gradually rose in the hearts of many old men, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold. Even Chen Guang felt a trace of coldness.
This was their true colors.
Without the slightest scheming and honeyed words, who could have walked step by step to where they were today in the seemingly harmonious but actually surging undercurrents in the officialdom and sat on the occasion that more than a billion people could only look up to and imagine but never had any chance to see or participate in with their own eyes?
Although the people sitting on the table were all old men with one nose and two eyes, every old man here was someone who could shake the country with a stomp of their feet.
Cao Zhengming saw that his words were effective and was secretly pleased, but he still looked impassioned and ready to die at any time.
Chen Guang felt the doubtful gazes directed at him from all directions. He also realized that he had accidentally been countered by Cao Zhengming in front of everyone.
Among the old men present, Old Men Jin and Old Men Jiang were slightly better. They had often heard their juniors mention Chen Guang's character and did not believe he was that kind of person.
Old Man Lin was in a similar situation, but he could not resist the other old men who were not familiar with Chen Guang. Many of them had listened to Old Man Cao's sophistry, and now that Cao Zhengming had exposed them, combined with the various uncooperative attitudes Chen Guang had displayed in the past few days, it was impossible for them not to have any thoughts.
The hostility in the meeting room grew stronger and stronger. Chen Guang's brows were tightly knitted together.
Damn it, so treacherous. The Old Man was not in a good situation!
There were two choices in front of Chen Guang.
First, think of a way to use words to change the situation in this meeting, but it seemed very difficult.
Second, a gentleman does not stand under a collapsing wall. He should immediately flee a thousand miles away, find a place to concentrate on practicing martial arts, collect faith, and break through the Cup World. He should wait until he became a god, or at least a demigod who could resist missiles with his body.
His palm caressed the Heavenly Holy Grail, and his breathing gradually calmed down. He thought to himself, I'm afraid I really have to leave.
No, I still have Lady Azure. If I really can't do it, I can beg Lady Azure to help me and use a super hypnosis on Old Man Cao?
"Dream on! If you have the guts, come into the Cup World and beg me to try. I promise I won't beat you to death! "
Just as he was thinking this, Azure's voice was heard.
This was not the end. Deercry also expressed, "That's right, I'll let you have a taste of the power of a woman's double attack. When I woke up, my leaves were almost all gone! My branches and trunks are all burnt off! "
Chen Guang shuddered. Fine, pretend I didn't think of anything.
I almost forgot, it was palm-sized TNT. The Cup World would definitely be in a mess. If I went in now, even if I didn't die, I would at least lose a layer of skin.
Then I really can only pack up and leave?
This is very unpleasant!
At this moment, a voice came from the Heavenly Holy Grail. It was neither Azure nor Deercry.
What Chen Guang heard was the emotionless electronic voice of the Holy Grail.
"Forced PY trading mode's cooldown is over. Redeemer can use it at any time."
Chen Guang rejoiced. Oh my god! His skill's cooldown wasn't fixed, and it had come off cooldown at this critical moment!
The Old Man was indeed a man shrouded in the aura of a protagonist!
"Count yourself lucky! Hmph! "
Azure also noticed this and snorted in Chen Guang's heart.
Deercry also snorted, "That's right. Don't come in here for the rest of your life if you can!"
Old Master Guang expressed to the two God Emperors that the Old Man was a dead pig that feared no boiling water. He had seen all kinds of storms and waves.
He just had to do something to make them happy later to coax them.
He should … maybe … probably wouldn't be strangled to death?
In short, things suddenly became simple.
Chen Guang turned his head and looked at Cao Zhengming with a very meaningful look. An extremely strange smile appeared on his face.
It couldn't be helped. Old Master Guang couldn't control his joy at the thought of being able to force him into a rather shameless PY trading mode.
Well, he could actually control his expression, but he didn't want to. Why bother?
If he didn't show off when he should be happy, did he have to wait until he was unlucky before showing off?
Chen Guang was overly happy. The strange smile that suddenly appeared on his face even changed the slightly cold atmosphere in the conference room into a horrifying one!
"What's with that look, Little Chen? He's not going to do anything stupid, is he? "
Old Jiang turned pale with fright. The next moment, he was about to slam the table and stand up. He absolutely couldn't let Chen Guang do something irrecoverable in this place!
Even with his current ability, he could subdue everyone here in an instant and then leave.
But in this vast Huaxia, even if these people in the conference room died, there would be others to replace them. But if he did that, he would become the enemy of the entire country, no, the entire world!
Old Jiang himself wasn't afraid. He also knew that Chen Guang wouldn't kill him, Old Jin, and Old Lin, but the same couldn't be said for the others!
That was absolutely not allowed!
Not only would he be pressured by the laws and human relationships, but it would also completely turn him onto the evil path and leave an indelible mark in his heart. This was completely different from killing those assassins!
A martial artist who was known as the strongest Inner Force user in history would walk the path of evil. Either he would destroy the world, or the world would destroy him!
Old Jin and Old Jiang had the same idea. Old Jin moved even faster. He bowed slightly, and in the next moment, he would stand up.
Old Lin, who was in the middle, frowned. In his hand was a phone with Lin Jingwei's number on it.
The old man didn't know who could stop Chen Guang if he went completely crazy. After thinking about it, he felt that the friendship between his grandson and Chen Guang might be of some use.
He secretly regretted trusting him unreservedly and letting him come to this place.
If anything happened to anyone here today, it would be a huge disaster.
As for those who were already hostile towards Chen Guang, they were even more panicked now.
Although there was no recording of Chen Guang's battle with Ouyang Tianxing and the Shadow Alliance's warriors, the scene of him slaughtering dozens of powerful warriors with a wave of his hand was still vividly portrayed in the conference room.
Everyone knew that as long as he wanted to make a move, no one could do anything to him!
Right now, the ones who were the most afraid were the Cao father and son.
Chen Guang might not kill the others, but the two of them would be the first to bear the brunt of it. It would be hard for them to escape death!
Cao Zhengming retreated as he shouted, "Chen Guang! What are you doing! "
"Chen Guang! Stop! "
Old Man Jin had already shouted.
Old Jiang slammed the table heavily. "Little Chen, don't do anything rash! Don't worry, I'm here, no one can suspect you! "
Old Lin coughed heavily, his hands pressing down slightly. "Everyone, be quiet! Listen to me. "
Hearing those words, Chen Guang was briefly stunned. Holy shit, why are these old gentlemen acting as if they're facing a great enemy?
"Uh …"
"Little Chen, calm down! Cao Zhengming! Apologize to Little Chen now! Immediately! Immediately! "
Old Lin glared at Cao Zhengming.
Cao Zhengming didn't dare to delay. "I'm sorry, Chen Guang. My words were too harsh. I shouldn't have compared you to Ouyang Tianxing. You guys are different."
Old Master Guang finally understood. Alright, the old men thought that he was going to smash the cup as a signal to attack in anger.
They were afraid!
To this, he could only say, 'What the f * ck? Am I that kind of person in your hearts?'
Forget it, he couldn't blame them. In their eyes, no, in his eyes, internal strength warriors had ultimate skills. They indeed had the ability to kill in anger.
Wasn't there an ancient saying that the so-called heroes were actually more like desperados. If they were unhappy, they would kill a person every ten steps, leaving no trace behind.
In their eyes, he was like a walking killing machine, so it was not strange that they were afraid of him.
It was just that it was disgusting. To think that I respected you guys so much, but you guys are guarding against me like a wolf?
