After Li Cunxiao brought his men to move the corpses, Cao Feng returned to his room.
"Although the mission has been completed, the system has not given any new missions.”
Cao Feng was a little puzzled.
Based on his previous two experiences, once he completed a new mission, the system would give him the next related mission.
Why was there no one this time?
He compared the mission hints from the past few times and quickly found the reason.
"It seems that the mission is based on my current situation.”
Cao Feng nodded.
After all, finding a way to vent his anger was connected to defending the Cao family and his own dignity.
This was also what he needed to do at the moment.
"In that case, let's wait and see if the system will give us a new mission tomorrow.”
Cao Feng was looking forward to it, especially for the main mission that had not been released yet.
If the rewards for the side mission were already so generous, what about the main mission?
Using the rewards from the system and the First Emperor's dragon energy, Cao Feng had already made plans for the future.
That was to establish an empire to unify the world and create an unprecedented dynasty!
How could a good man not have a grand plan in troubled times?
Moreover, it was time to revitalize the Cao family and not let the Cao family continue to decline.
"Wait until tomorrow."
The corners of Cao Feng's mouth curled up as he thought about it.
"Let's go."
At this moment, Li Cunxiao had already moved all the corpses to the Li Residence and returned the way he came.
“......”
The next day, Daxing City, Li Manor.
"Cao Feng should have calmed down after the Cao family's engagement banquet.”
Li Yuan muttered to himself in the study.
Yesterday was the engagement banquet. Since the banquet was held as usual, the Cao family naturally would not be humiliated.
The grudge between the Li family and the Cao family was not that deep.
"Patriarch, something happened."
A series of footsteps suddenly sounded. Then, Li Xiaogong hurriedly walked in and said with a solemn expression.
"What is it?"
Li Yuan frowned.
"There were many corpses of guards in front of the mansion, and there was even a box containing Duan Zhi Xuan's head.”
Li Xiaogong said in a deep voice.
"What did you say?"
Li Yuan's expression changed. He hurriedly stood up and rushed toward the main gate of the mansion.
As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw many corpses on the ground. The box containing Duan Zhixuan's head was right in the middle.
"What's going on?"
Seeing this, Li Yuan's expression was very ugly.
Someone actually dared to offend the Li family. Wasn't this courting death?
"Duke Tang, and this letter."
Li Xiaogong immediately handed it over. Li Yuan took the letter and quickly opened it.
"Thank you for your kindness, Patriarch Li. You even specially sent someone to visit late at night.”
The contents of the letter were clear at a glance. There were even two large words, Cao Feng, at the bottom.
"Duan Zhixuan and the others went to the Cao Mansion?"
Li Yuan understood what had happened. No wonder he hadn't seen Duan Zhixuan recently.
However, Duan Zhixuan and the group of Li family guards would definitely not go to the Cao family for no reason.
Moreover, he knew what to do if he went there late at night.
"Jiancheng!"
Thinking of this, Li Yuan quickly suspected his sons.
"Call Jiancheng and the others over."
Then, he looked at Li Xiaogong and instructed.
"Yes."
Li Xiaogong responded and quickly left.
"Father, what's the matter?"
In a short while, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji arrived.
When they saw the corpses on the ground and Duan Zhi Xuan's head, their faces instantly turned pale.
The two of them cursed in their hearts. They really did not expect things to turn out like this.
“………”
As for Li Shiming, he was not called over because Li Yuan knew that he was still drunk. Even if he was called over, it would be useless.
"That's strange. The entire Cao Residence is filled with servants, and Cao Feng himself is even more frail.”
Li Xiaogong looked at the corpse and frowned.
"How could the Cao family kill both the guard and Duan Zhixuan?”
He couldn't help but feel extremely puzzled.
As a member of the Li family, he knew that these guards were not simple guards, but private soldiers who were secretly trained.
They only needed to send five people to deal with the entire Cao family, not to mention Duan Zhixuan and so many private soldiers.
"Could it be that the Cao family is hiding something?"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. He also felt that something was not right and was shocked.
At the same time, his father's exhortations to him echoed in his ears, making him furious.
Originally, his relationship with the Cao family would not have broken down, but now it was different. The two families had completely formed a grudge.
"What's going on?"
Li Yuan immediately looked at Li Jiancheng.
"Father…"
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji both lowered their heads, feeling extremely nervous.
The matter had blown up. Not only did Duan Zhixuan die, but there were also many Li family private soldiers.
They were afraid of being discovered, so they did these things in secret.
Now that he was caught, he was naturally even more nervous.
"Duan Zhixuan was sent by you, right?”
Li Yuan asked directly.
"Yes."
Now that things had come to this, he could only admit it.
"Impudent! What do you think I said? Didn't I say that we'd let this matter go?”
Li Yuan was furious when he heard that.
"We…"
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji trembled violently, unable to say a word.
Li Jiancheng explained.
"Yes, we even tried to persuade Second Brother.”
Hearing this, Li Yuanji hurriedly agreed.
"What?"
Li Yuan's expression turned even uglier.
If it was in the past, he wouldn't have believed the words of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.
However, Li Shimin had gone to Cao Feng's residence to make a scene yesterday. It was not impossible for him to find someone to teach Cao Feng a lesson.
"It's Shimin."
Li Yuan shook his head and sighed.
Shi Min was young, but he was very steady, so he was highly valued by him.
However, he was a little disappointed after the Cao Family's engagement banquet and the matter of sending Duan Zhixuan.
"Father will investigate this matter thoroughly.”
Li Yuan waved his hand.
With that, he flicked his sleeves and left. The corpse was naturally taken care of by someone else.
Although he was disappointed in Li Shiming, he still had a little hope.
Therefore, he planned to ask Shimin after he woke up.
"Tang Gong, this matter might not have been planned by Second Young Master.”
Li Xiaogong suddenly said.
"I think so."
Li Yuan nodded.
Even so, the two of them weren't sure. What they were sure of was that Shi Min was most likely involved.
Otherwise, how could Jiancheng dare to say that?
"Haha, this time, Second Brother is done for.”
Li Yuanji gloated as he watched his father leave.
"That's right, father was clearly disappointed in Shi Min just now.”
Similarly, Li Jiancheng smiled proudly.
"Big brother, in this case, what does second brother have to compete with you? In the future, the position of the family head will be yours.”
Li Yuanji flattered.
After all, he had always followed his big brother's lead.
"I'm awake?"
At noon, the drunk Li Shi Min woke up. Although he was awake, he was still in a dazed state.
"Shimin, you're awake?"
At this moment, Li Yuan was already waiting there.
"Father…"
Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he saw his father.
