"Master, I will!" At this moment, the elder didn't speak any words of consolation. He only nodded his head in agreement. Actually, this was more than enough.
The two old men, who seemed to be around 150 years old, looked back at the path they had walked half their lives ago, then looked up at the huge home they had built together. All sorts of feelings welled up in his heart, an indescribable feeling. There were those who had galloped their horses when they were young, those who had strived for power during their middle years, and those who had spread their wings when they were young. It was just that they were gradually getting old, so old that they were about to leave the stage of history.
Elder Zhou Cangfeng once again sat in the Grand Tutor's rocking chair, absent-minded. A pair of elderly fingers silently drummed on the table, issuing a clear and rhythmic sound. "How is it?"
The elderly man beside him had already organized some things and slowly placed them in front of Zhou Cangfeng. However, Zhou Cangfeng waved his hand weakly and said: "Just say it directly, I'm too lazy to look at this nonsense!" The elderly man helplessly shook his head. He knew that his master had been through fifty years of hardships and had truly started to get tired. He was starting to get lazy to care about it.
"Miss encountered an assassination attempt on his Jia Xing." The old man said carefully, paying attention to Zhou Cangfeng's expression. However, it was clear that Zhou Cangfeng already knew about this matter, and only nodded, indicating that he knew. After a moment of silence, the old man spoke again, "Zhou Daoming saw a mysterious person on the pleasure boat!"
The old man's eyes gradually narrowed as they emitted a ray of light. However, he still used his finger to tap the table, indicating that he should continue. The old man opened his mouth for the third time, and said: "That young man was moving at Jia Xing!"
This news seemed to shock the old man, and he subconsciously wanted to stand up from his chair. However, he still deliberately maintained his rationality and thought to himself, "Why would he be there?"
The old man said helplessly: "This, might be because of the Blue Lake Summit!" As he spoke, the elder named Ah Hu revealed a faint smile as he gazed into the distance, looking at the mysterious country in the east. It was unknown as to what he was thinking. But soon, he laughed again and said: "That young master and young miss are truly a match made in heaven! This person is quite useful. "
Zhou Cangfeng let out a cold snort in his heart, and thought with a tinge of ridicule: This is far more than enough, it's simply terrifying! He had never seen such a young man in his life.
Being passionate about others, even Zhou Cangfeng, who was an influential figure in the world, was not an exception. But the tiger was old and ambitious. The consequences of provoking a tiger all the time, even if the tiger was already old, were quite serious. In this world, there were not many people who were afraid of Zhou Cangfeng, this ferocious tiger, but in terms of Jin Ling City, that young man could be considered one!
After sighing again, Zhou Cangfeng no longer inquired about the movements of the young man. After all, even if he knew, he could do nothing about it. His current focus was still Europe, so he couldn't get close to China's situation, so he could only let it go. Moreover, his granddaughter didn't want him to interfere in her world too much.
Perhaps some would say that Zhou Cangfeng was a wise man, but lost to his own granddaughter. However, none of this mattered. Only the old man himself knew that it was a type of love.
Narrowing his eyes that were still hiding behind his sunglasses, Zhou Cangfeng's mind stirred. Looking into the distance, he slowly turned his eyes back to the old servant who had followed him for countless of years, his old comrade suddenly spoke: "Zhou Daoming needs to pay more attention to him, if necessary, activate the Jia Xing nail, and see how many tricks he has hidden!"
Zhou Family was indeed a magical family, or rather, a family with a headache. Right now, Zhou Family did not only have European Zhou Family and Jia Xing, there were also differences in Zhou Family. Zhou Daoming was merely a family head in name but the true power of the clan was held in the hands of his younger brother, Zhou Daoxiong.
Over the years, Zhou Daoming had always given the impression that he was a coward that was hard to use. In fact, he was a bit of an imbecile and incompetent. Because Zhou Daoming had spent almost all his time on the calligraphy and paintings, as well as his pleasure boat, he simply did not have the time to manage the affairs of the clan.
However, in Zhou Cangfeng's eyes, this Zhou Daoming was an extremely smart person. Having concealed his strength for the past ten years, he had some brains and patience.
According to the family tree, whether it was Zhou Daoming or Zhou Daoxiong, they were both from Zhou Cangfeng's nephew generation. The pillar of the Jia Xing back then, after the passing of the previous patriarch, he passed down the order to establish the eldest son, Zhou Daoming, as the successor, to inherit the clan's business and hidden strength. However, at that time, his son Zhou Daoxiong already had ample wings, and could almost be on par with his father. In addition to his great skill, there were many people in the family who stood behind him to support him and to become a great treasure.
In this kind of difficult time, with Zhou Daoming taking over the throne, it could be said that thorns were everywhere in front of him, and his path wasn't easy.
The reason why he said that Zhou Daoming was a smart person was because Zhou Daoming did not take it head-on at that time. It was only after rejecting the position of the family head multiple times, and over the course of ten years, that he had managed to make Zhou Daoxiong feel that his elder brother truly did not have any ambitions, and was unable to become an obstacle in his path. Thus, as long as Zhou Daoming's request for the past few years was not too excessive, Zhou Daoxiong would secretly nod in agreement.
But who knew that after ten years of living together, after ten years of being taught a lesson, the current Zhou Daoming was already extremely powerful in the dark. Looking at his style of doing things, Zhou Cangfeng could simply endure it too much. But the alliance with the Dongfang Family was just to one degree.
"Right, he's trying to confuse the enemy. He's contacting the strong outside. This guy isn't simple, he's not simple at all!" Even Ah Hu who was beside Zhou Cangfeng started to sigh.
Indeed, if such a person were to be killed, it would be disadvantageous to Zhou Cangfeng or Zhou Qianyun who was in the Blue Lake. As a result, Zhou Cangfeng hoped to be able to keep a close eye on this person's movements from time to time, and to this end, did not hesitate to use a nail that had been hidden in the darkness for many years. However, what he did not know was that the Jin Ling had already issued a killing order. No matter how much he endured in front of that man, it would just be a joke.
"Master, what do we do about that Zhou Li?" Ah Hu asked with concern.
No one knew about his identity, even Zhou Daoming himself did not know. Even when his son had just reached Full Moon, this child had already been taken over by someone. However, this didn't affect anything. Now that Ah Hu had asked this question, they were naturally on their guard. As for what he was wary of, Zhou Cangfeng knew.
"After all, this is a child that has been raised by our family for many years. Let's take a look first." Zhou Cangfeng waved his hand, but quickly said: "Go and pass my order to the sharp-witted person, tell them to keep their Zhou Family, I want them to become my family head!"
Tiger's hunched back nods. After all, he understood the character of his own family head people. Although Zhou Cangfeng's personality was suspicious, but a servant's heart was still the most important. Now that he had become suspicious, how could he possibly hand over the position of Jia Xing and Zhou Family family head to that young man?
Greedy people may love money and rights, but as long as they are greedy, there will always be flaws.
Zhou Cangfeng used this principle. Looking at the bent back figure in the distance that was gradually disappearing under the sunset, the corner of Zhou Cangfeng's mouth faintly revealed a hint of confidence. He beckoned to the gradually darkening air, and a figure appeared behind the old man.
"Phantom Shadow, what do you think of A'Hu?" Zhou Cangfeng suddenly asked, looking somewhat amused.
The silhouette lowered its voice, as if it wanted to lower its voice to the point where it couldn't hear anything. "Although Tiger Lord can't speak the truth sometimes, he's still a very interesting person!"
"Hehe, not bad. Ah Hu is indeed very interesting." Elder Zhou Cangfeng looked coldly at the lonely setting sun, then let out a long sigh, and said: "The things he did behind the scenes, I thought he could hide from everyone. Interesting. I just don't understand why he would do that. "
"This is something that only Tiger Lord knows!" The apparition said coldly.
"Fifty years. Fifty years of friendship. Back then, when I found out about this, I was extremely furious. If it wasn't for you letting me suppress him first, I would have really killed him! Now that I think about it, years of friendship cannot be relied on! " With a self-deprecating laugh, old man Zhou Cangfeng shook his head and said: "No matter who he is, he won't be able to stop me, Zhou Cangfeng, from advancing."
Zhou Cangfeng waved his hand again, and with the power that it was twenty years ago, Zhou Cangfeng ordered: Phantom Shadow, turn over all the cards you have, you have to kill me in one hit, I don't like leaving too many people alive!
"Yes, I understand!" It was the same cold reply, but in the next moment, the shadow had already disappeared into the wilderness.
Zhou Cangfeng was a formidable character, no one knew what kind of trump card he had, and no one had ever seen the shadow beside him. This shadow would definitely stay by his side longer than that old servant Ah Hu. Thus, this old man who was already over the age of ten only coldly watched as everything that happened around him happened. He was like a pensive person, without the slightest movement, and similarly without the slightest emotion. He was like a god watching the development of a situation, but occasionally he would show a hint of displeasure. It was anger after being betrayed.
Actually, there was no such thing as a god in this world. Since a god was angry, then he was no different from an ordinary person.
Just like Chen Yufan, although he possessed power, he never treated himself as an omnipotent myth. That was because, like ordinary people, he was both angry and sad. The autumn of the Jin Ling was getting colder and colder. In that empty office, it had been a long time since Dean Xiao Chen had returned.
No one knew where he had gone, and the headmaster had simply called him a long leave of absence. Naturally, he arrogantly and disdainfully threw the court leaflet away in a corner. Actually, everyone knew what was behind this arrogant and despotic Dean Xiao Chen. Even if it was the court, they couldn't force him too much.
Who knew what kind of unexpected situation would occur if he were to be forced into a corner? In this harmonious society, everyone wished for everything to be as calm as still water. War, even political turmoil, was not what people wanted to see. Even Jiang Nan's old secretary Zhong Zhen seemed to have given up this once in a lifetime opportunity and waved at Gu Feng, signalling him to ignore this matter.
Perhaps this old man already knew that he was leaving, so he wanted to seek peace for his family. Or perhaps the old man in the capital had finally spoken, not wanting this matter to continue. Or perhaps, the old man of the An clan and the two old men of the Chen Clan had reached a secret agreement.
However, a peaceful living environment was a good thing for everyone. The only one who could not figure it out and spat out blood in anger was the old man who was still in the critical ward of the hospital, the boss of the education world and the leader of Jin Ling and Foreign Language Academy. However, due to the current circumstances, he could not create too much of a mess. He could only sigh to himself.
