Chapter 957: The Cao Family’s Reply!

Wang Teng was surprised by Master Fan Taining’s reminder.

He still offered him advice even after knowing that his enemies were Cao Hongtu and the Parkers family. He didn’t chase him out of his house either. This showed that Fan Taining sincerely treated him as a friend.

Of course, this also meant that the grandmaster-level runemaster standing behind him had a powerful background.

It looks like grandmaster-level runemasters are more popular than I thought! Wang Teng touched his chin and wondered to himself. He was eager to head to the Secondary Career Alliance to prove his grandmaster-level mastery.

Mind you, he was at the grandmaster level for rune mastery and smithery. Given enough time, his connections would definitely grow.

His alchemy mastery was almost at the grandmaster level too. He could pick up some alchemist attribute bubbles in the Secondary Career Alliance a few days later, and he would jump to the grandmaster level. How amazing would it be?

“Master Wang Teng, stay at my place without any worry. I have registered my residence with the Secondary Career Alliance and have gained the protection of the alliance. Ordinary martial warriors won’t dare to create trouble here,” Fan Taining said.

“Thank you. I won’t have to worry about insensible people coming over to create trouble for me.” Wang Teng laughed.

“Hahaha, after you finish your registration at the Secondary Career Alliance tomorrow, with your potential, the alliance will definitely be happy to give you protection.” Master Fan Taining laughed happily.

Wang Teng smiled. He wondered if Master Fan Taining would drop his jaws when he realized that he was a grandmaster-level runemaster.

He should let others reveal this truth. He was too embarrassed to say it himself!

Wang Teng had a conversation with Fan Taining about runes. Then, he retired to his room. He sat cross-legged on his bed and focused on his attributes panel.

Ocean Whale Flame*100

Wang Teng smiled unconsciously when he saw the new flame on his attributes panel. So what if you’re a heaven-stage martial warrior? So what if you’re from the Parkers family?

I can still collect your attribute bubbles!

When he went to the chamber, there was a moment when Sinclamon wanted to kill him, but the attack got stopped by the head of the council. Sinclamon dropped an attribute bubble at that time, and Wang Teng picked it up silently.

When this attribute bubble merged into his body, he noticed a blue flame appearing in his consciousness. It looked the same as Sinclamon’s flame. However, it was just a tiny flame that was smaller than an egg.

The tiny blue flame hid in a corner and flickered in fear as it faced the Holy Flame, the Dark Flame, and the Emerald Glazed Flame.

After receiving the Ocean Whale Flame, Wang Teng immediately knew its background.

This was a beast fire. It came from the Deep Sea Blue Whale living deep in the ocean. Only a small number of pure-blooded Deep Sea Blue Whale could breed the Ocean Whale Flame.

The Ocean Whale Flame could not be compared to a divine fire like the Emerald Glazed Flame. However, it was a powerful flame among the star beasts. It was able to burn brightly even in the ocean. The Parkers family could release a lot of its power with the help of their fire physique.

Wang Teng was extremely interested in the fire physique of the Parkers family. He had many flames. If he had the fire physique, he would become more powerful.

In the evening, after having dinner, Fan Taining held him back to discuss runes again. Fan Taining was astounded by Wang Teng’s understanding and gained many insights.

Then, Wang Teng returned to his room and entered the virtual reality to cultivate.

...

In the Nangong family encampment, Cao Guan finally managed to contact his father, Cao Hongtu. They were conversing in the virtual universe.

Besides Cao Guan and Cao Hongtu, there were many other people. They were all Cao Hongtu’s sons, daughters, grandsons, granddaughters, great-grandsons, etc...

During these million years, Cao Hongtu created a huge family, grooming many descendants.

If Nangong Family had done the same thing, they wouldn’t be in this state. They wouldn’t need an outsider to inherit their noble title.

Cao Hongtu was a stern-looking middle-aged man with slightly curled brown hair. His eyes were like an upside-down triangle. They made him look sinister.

“Someone brought Nangong Yue’s baron’s seal to the Noble Family Consultation Chamber and even attained his legacy!” Cao Hongtu called Nangong Yue by his name without any hint of respect in his tone. He stared at Cao Guan coldly, “Why didn’t you inform me immediately?”

“I...” Cold sweat dripped down Cao Guan’s forehead continuously. He was extremely fearful of Cao Hongtu. “The other party is just a planetary-stage martial warrior, and there are other families speaking up for me in the council. I thought that this young man with no background won’t be able to do anything, so I didn’t inform you.”

“A planetary-stage martial warrior with no background!” Cao Hongtu’s gaze turned sharper. “Since he managed to get acknowledged as the inheritor, it means that you’re worse than him, right?”

“Plonk!” Cao Guan kneeled down in fright. “Father, please give me another chance. I’ll not let him get the baron’s title.”

“Give you another chance?” Cao Hongtu’s face turned black. “Do you know what will happen if you fail again?”

“If you fail again, our family will never be able to take over the baron’s title, and Father’s effort all these years will go to waste.” A mesmerizing voice was heard.

1

All the other descendants of Cao Hongtu didn’t dare to speak, but this lady remained unaffected by his anger. There was even a small smile at the edge of her lips as she looked at Cao Guan with disdain.

This lady seemed to be around 28. She was sexy, and her hair was tied up. She exuded the aura of a mature lady.

From her looks and aura, one could give her 90 points. Her voluptuous figure could add another 5 points.

It was hard to imagine that this lady belonged to the Cao Family. After all, Cao Hongtu wasn’t exactly handsome.

“Cao Jiaojiao!” Cao Guan raised his head abruptly. He was furious.

“Don’t look at me like that. I’m your dear little sister.” Cao Jiaojiao patted her voluptuous chest delicately.

The other members of the Cao Family: ...

If they didn’t know her character, they would have almost believed her performance.

“Jiaojiao is right. If you fail again, all my efforts will go down the drain. You won’t be able to bear the consequences.” Cao Hongtu’s expression turned gentler when he saw Cao Jiaojiao. Turning to Cao Guan, his gaze turned sharp and cold again. “Go back and stay in your room to reflect. I’ll ask your younger brother to take over your businesses. Also, I’ll head back to the Great Qian Planet too. I must attend to this matter personally.”

Cao Guan was dejected. He was unwilling to give up, but he didn’t dare to disobey Cao Hongtu.

“Father, I’ll not disappoint you.” Cao Ling, Cao Guan’s younger brother and the fourth child of Cao Hongtu, promised hurriedly.

“After you go back, investigate the other party’s ability and background. I want to know if there’s anyone supporting him. I don’t believe that a planetary-stage martial warrior dares to go against me,” Cao Hongtu ordered.

“I understand.” Cao Ling nodded. He paused and asked, “What about the Parkers family?”

“You don’t have to care about them. I will contact Sir Sinclamon personally,” Cao Hongtu frowned and replied.

“I’m sure Sir Sinclamon will give you some face if you go personally.” Cao Ling tried to curry favor with his father.

“It’s hard to say. I heard that the young brat angered Sinclamon during the meeting. He must be fuming since he got provoked by a planetary-stage martial warrior. If I don’t offer some gifts, I might not be able to appease his anger,” Cao Hongtu said helplessly. There was a flash of exasperation in his eyes.

“Hmph, the Parkers family is one of the eight dukes after all,” Cao Jiaojiao smiled and said.

“Jiaojiao, you should come back soon. I need your help this time.” Cao Hongtu turned to another person and said, “You should come back too.”

Cao Jiaojiao was one of the only two cosmos-stage martial warriors among his descendants. This was why Cao Guan didn’t dare to refute her. The other one was his second son, Cao Wu. He was a muscular and stern-looking man.

A million years could change many things. Two of Cao Hongtu’s descendants had managed to reach the cosmos stage.

Round Ball wished that Cao Hongtu was still at the cosmos stage. It must be daydreaming.

Compared to his younger siblings, Cao Guan only managed to reach the sixth-level celestial stage even after all these years of resources. This was partly because of Cao Hongtu’s lack of education in the past and his low talent in martial arts.

“Alright. Since it’s Father’s request, I’ll definitely come back.” Cao Jiaojiao nodded obediently.

“Okay.” Cao Wu’s reply was short.

Cao Jiaojiao and Cao Wu had reached the cosmos stage, so they were stationed on battlefields all year-round. They were there to accumulate military exploits for the Cao family and also to improve their ability. They rarely stayed in the Great Qian Planet.

Cao Hongtu was satisfied with their attitude. They were his proudest son and daughter. Naturally, he felt that they were the best.

“I’ll make some preparations first. I can’t leave the No. 6 Defense Planet as and when I want to. I need to complete some handover procedures,” Cao Jiaojiao said.

“Yes, go ahead.” Cao Hongtu nodded. He said to everyone else, “You all can leave.”

The meeting of the Cao family ended at that. Everyone started moving regardless of where they were. They were all heading back to the Great Qian Planet.

Wang Teng didn’t know that the Cao family was targeting him. However, he did ask Round Ball to investigate Cao Hongtu.

Know thy enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, you will never be defeated.

Cao Hongtu was at the heaven stage, so if he didn’t prepare well, he would be at a disadvantage when he met him.

After all, Round Ball wasn’t reliable. He had suffered many times because of it, so he should rely on himself.
